Only Wei Xian knew that he and others had failed for more than three months in a row, and they hadn't even built a successful building, a building that satisfied the young master.This is simply not an inch of merit, so how can I have the face to participate in some kind of celebration banquet? !
Every time seeing the smiling faces of everyone at the banquet, it was no less than a torture for Wei Xian.
……
"Weitou, Weitou!"
In a haze, Wei Xian only felt that someone patted his arm, but when he turned his head, he found that a foreman below was calling him.
"what happened?"
Wei Xian frowned and asked, and then he found a well-dressed, fair-faced child standing behind him, and beside him was a row of large boxes firmly locked with iron locks.
"Boss, he is looking for you."
The foreman behind him gave him a look, then stood behind him and stopped talking, while the little boy said in a crisp voice, "Are you the leader here?"
After all, he took a contemptuous look at the smoky construction site.
Zhang Yan didn't know at this time that he just passed by an acquaintance.
……
As the days passed, Zhang Yan was still living the life of the fourth son of Luoyang.
Jian Shuo hasn't contacted Zhang Yan since the last meeting, and Zhang Yan is not in a hurry. He eats and drinks with Cao Cao every day, and occasionally goes to the construction site to see the progress of his wonder construction. The rest of the time is spent with Ye Er Riding a horse in Luoyang is also a pleasure.
It is worth mentioning that the number of people working on the construction site has been increasing recently, and there is a faint trend of breaking through a thousand people.Moreover, Zhang Yan discovered that among these people there were many stonemasons with strange faces mixed in.
"Is the difficulty of this giant sundial so great... It actually requires a special craftsman?"
Zhang Yan couldn't help being a little curious. You must know that even when he asked everyone to build some rare quality wonders, Wei Xian and the others didn't spend money to hire special craftsmen, but led their own people to try silently.
Now, a giant equatorial sundial whose difficulty is rated as the lowest by the system actually made him start hiring professional craftsmen?
"That's right, I actually know that there is a reason to specialize in the art industry. It deserves praise."
Naturally, he didn't say much about this, and gave Wei Xian full trust.He didn't look at the construction drawings of the sundial carefully at the beginning, so Zhang Yan now has the right to think that these stonemasons were recruited by Wei Xian, and they are necessary talents for building the sundial.
In addition to caring about the progress of the construction site, on Zhang Rang's side, Zhang Yan still occasionally sends people over to greet him.It's just that Zhang Rang didn't know what he was busy with recently, but he didn't meet him.
"Maybe Liu Yan is doing something wrong?"
Calculating the time, it is probably the time in history when the Eastern Han Dynasty abolished history and established animal husbandry.Great changes were about to take place in the upper echelon of Eastern Han officialdom, so Zhang Rang, the general manager in charge of helping Emperor Han Ling buy and sell official titles, was going to be busy.
Zhang Yan thought silently.
Soon, the time came to the last day of March, and Zhang Yan finally welcomed the long-awaited envoy sent by Jian Shuo.It's just that he didn't expect that the messenger came with a servant who rushed from home in a hurry after being signaled by Ye'er.
……
"My lord, it's bad! Zhang Changshi just came to look for you at home, and for some reason he was furious. Miss Ye'er told you to go back quickly!"
Looking at the panting servant with a surprised face, Zhang Yan was having dinner with Cao Cao at the restaurant under his name, and beside the servant was a deadpan, heavily armed soldier, who was sent by Jian Shuo to invite Zhang Yan. Yan's past messenger.
The messenger brought only one sentence: "Xiaowei Jian said let me take you there, and said that the last time was done."
After finishing speaking, the messenger stood at the door like a wooden stick, blocking the servants behind him tightly.
"What's the situation?"
Seeing that the two sides sent people to look for him at the same time, no matter how slow Zhang Yan's reaction was, he could understand what had happened—probably because Jian Shuo successfully applied for the position of partial general for himself at the court meeting today.
It's just that I don't know why, but he didn't seem to be able to do what he promised to help him settle Zhang Rang.
Now Zhang Rang ran to his home angrily, fearing that he was going to hit him hard.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan hurriedly apologized to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao didn't say much in this situation.For Zhang Rang's love for Zhang Yan, the entire Luoyang City residents are aware of it, and he has recently heard about Jian Shuo's arranging a military post for Zhang Yan, so he naturally understands what happened at this moment.
"Would you like to join the army without telling Zhang Changshi? It seems that my virtuous brother is going to suffer disaster this time."
Cao Cao thought to himself, but he didn't make any reservations, he just signaled Zhang Yan to go back quickly and leave him alone.
"Thank you, Brother Meng De, for your understanding. In the future, my younger brother will definitely be the host and apologize to Brother Meng De!"
Glancing at Cao Cao with some gratitude, Zhang Yan asked Jian Shuo's envoy to go back to report first, and told Jian Shuo that he would visit another day.Afterwards, while thinking about how to deal with Zhang Rang's interrogation, he hurriedly got up and returned home with his servant.
……
After entering the house, Zhang Yan found a depressive atmosphere enveloping everyone.The maids, who were laughing and playing around on weekdays, didn't even dare to catch their breath at the moment, and stood outside the door in an orderly manner. Seeing Zhang Yan's return, they immediately lowered their heads and huddled together like quails.
"Where's Ye'er?"
Asked in a low voice, Zhang Yan subconsciously did not dare to speak loudly in this environment.
"..."
Without making a sound, the maids standing at the door glanced at the direction of the main house, then lowered their heads and remained motionless, as if they were afraid of being caught.
Seeing this, Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel a little headache.Ye'er wasn't there, so he couldn't even get a general idea of the situation in the house, and he couldn't disobey Zhang Rang's order, so he could only bite the bullet and walk into the house, intending to take a step at a time before talking.
Pushing the door open and entering the house, the oppressive aura rushed over, even more obvious than outside the house.Zhang Yan looked up and saw Zhang Rang sitting high on the main seat, looking at himself with a gloomy expression.
Without making a sound, he scanned Zhang Yan up and down with poisonous eyes.After a while, Zhang Yan felt cold all over his body, and even got goose bumps a lot.
"Tuigui, I didn't realize that the old man's aura is so terrifying..."
Swallowing secretly, Zhang Yan saw Ye'er standing behind Zhang Rang in an orderly manner, carrying a kettle to pour tea for Zhang Rang.Seeing Zhang Yan coming in, Ye'er immediately glanced at Zhang Rang, wishing to write the words "he is very angry" on Zhang Rang.
"My child...has seen his father."
After dawdling for a long time, Zhang Yan, who was a little flustered by Zhang Rang's gaze, finally knelt down and sat in the lower seat, lowering his head to say hello to Zhang Rang who was sitting high in the main seat.
Chapter 18 The Three Conditions of Zhang Handicap
"..."
one second.
two seconds.
Just when Zhang Yan felt that the pressure in the room was gradually gathering on him, Zhang Rang responded leisurely.
"Ah."
With just one simple word, Zhang Yan suddenly felt the pressure on his body loosen a lot, and at the same time he was surprised to find that a layer of fine beads of sweat had appeared on his body at some point.
What a terrifying aura...
Zhang Yan sighed silently, and at the same time, his impression of Zhang Rang also changed a lot.
In his original impression, Zhang Rang was originally just an image of an old and frail social animal, and he even repeatedly felt that the description of Zhang Rang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms seemed fabricated.But seeing Zhang Rang's full aura today, Zhang Yan suddenly understood: Zhang Rang is not ordinary, but he has hidden his aura very well when communicating with him.
In a sense, the system's evaluation of Zhang Rang's "Like a God" is actually quite appropriate.
"..."
The awkward silence continued.
After Zhang Yan said hello, both parties were speechless for a while, Zhang Rang just sat on the main seat and looked at Zhang Yan silently.And after a long time, seeing that Zhang Rang was still there, Zhang Yan, who felt that his feet were numb from kneeling, gritted his teeth secretly, and opened his mouth first to break the silence in the room.
"I don't know what the father is talking about when he is so busy..."
"..."
Without answering Zhang Yan, Zhang Rang turned to look at him, and asked him after a few seconds: "A few days ago, did you go to see Jian Shuo?"
Without addressing the other party's official position, Zhang Rang just called him by his first name, while Zhang Yan, sweating on his brow, lowered his head and responded in a low voice: "Yes."
……
"When you met him, did you compete with him?"
"Yes."
……
"He said that he wants you to be his general and help him fight bandits, and you agree."
"..."
"Yes."
……
"Ye'er, you go out."
Sighing, a faint voice came out of Zhang Rang's mouth. Ye'er seemed to know that she should not appear in such an occasion as a maid, so she gave Zhang Yan a self-seeking look, and acted lightly. slipped out the back door.
There was another strange silence. After Ye'er went out, Zhang Rang had a gloomy face and sat in the main seat without saying a word, while Zhang Yan sat on the side with his head sullen. The old and the young just watched each other from the corner of their eyes. No one spoke.
Zhang Rang didn't want to.
Zhang Yan didn't dare.
……
"You have great ability!"
Suddenly, a loud curse broke the silence of the night like a storm. All the servants in the courtyard, including Ye'er, shivered, and Zhang Yan, who was in the center of the storm, shrank subconsciously. Shrink your neck.
"Bastard! Do you know that the news came from the front line today that Hedong County has been breached by Mrs. Guo's bandit, what are you still doing here!"
"Do you know that the Yellow Turbans in the entire Central Plains are now connected together, and there are tens of thousands of people. But today, Jian Shuo suggested to the current emperor that you lead the army alone to destroy them."
"Do you know that there are tens of thousands of yellow scarves! What's the use of giving you thousands of people, if you throw them into the den of thieves, they will be swallowed up in an instant without splashing half of the water!"
"Do you really think that we can send a black-haired person to your white-haired person? You really want to piss our family off!!!"
Zhang Rang was obviously a little anxious, and stood up quickly. Zhang Yan, who asked "Do you know" three times in a row, was dizzy.But Zhang Yan didn't expect Mrs. Guo, a little-known bandit, to capture Hedong in such a short period of time and unite the Yellow Turbans of the entire Central Plains.
On Jian Shuo's side, I really don't know whether to say that I have confidence in him or want to kill him. Under such circumstances, he even suggested to Emperor Han Liu Hong that he should bring a thousand people to fight with the bandits. Desperately, really...
He secretly looked up at Zhang Rang, who was as quiet as a poisonous snake before, and now he patted the table and stood in front of Zhang Yan panting heavily, exuding the aura of a wolf from all over his body, and he never saw the ordinary man before. white-haired old man.
"Yes, there is also Jian Shuo. That bastard Jian Shuo actually said that you are on par with him in terms of force, and Yuan Benchu and that Cao Mengde dare to stand aside!"
"They are so brave!"
"Bastards, they are all a bunch of bastards, how dare they ride on our heads, they really treat us like mud!"
Turning around abruptly and flicking his sleeves, Zhang Rang pushed all the tea sets on the table to the ground, and they fell to pieces immediately.
……
After a long time, the storm in the house calmed down a bit.
