Xianyang.
Epang Palace.
"I'm Gongshu Ye, the current clan leader of the Gongshu clan. Greetings, Imperial Teacher.”
After many days, the Gongshu Family finally appeared in front of Chen Beixuan.
"No worries."
"How many people from your Gongshu clan have come? Are they all proficient in forging and mechanism arts?”
Chen Beixuan went straight to the point.
"Reporting to Imperial Teacher, this old man has brought a total of twenty-two people with me on this trip. Each of them is an expert in forging and mechanisms.”
"Very good."
"Then the first task I will give you is to develop a mechanical crossbow that can shoot multiple arrows in a row. The blueprint is roughly like this.”
Chen Beixuan took out a simple blueprint and drew a crossbow.
That's right.
What Chen Beixuan described was the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow designed by Zhuge Liang. He wanted to use the Gongshu Family's ability to forge the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow in advance.
This was definitely a great killing weapon, an excellent divine weapon to deal with the Xiongnu.
"Imperial Teacher."
"I'm afraid it'll be difficult to successfully develop this crossbow in a short time.”
Gongshu Ye's face turned grave after reading the book. It was not easy to make a crossbow that could meet Chen Beixuan's requirements.
"No worries."
"I have plenty of time. You guys are not only going to develop mechanical crossbows. These are books on high-grade iron smelting and high-grade copper smelting.”
"High-grade iron smelting technique? Advanced Copper Smelting Technique?"
Gongshu Ye frowned. He did not think that Chen Beixuan had any advanced technology. Even if he did, it would not be enough for the Gongshu family.
One had to know.
The Gongshu family was one of the best craftsmen in the world. They were even the most powerful weapons in the world.
Bronze walked and asked Gongshu!
These short words were the best praise for the Gongshu family.
Therefore…
Gongshu Ye had the right to be proud.
However, due to Chen Beixuan's identity, he still took the book from him.
"This…"
With just a casual glance, Gongshu Ye was completely shocked by the book in his hand.
They had thought that it was just some simple and easy to understand ordinary technology that was not worth studying at all. However, the things recorded in it were unheard of and unheard of.
The understanding of many things had completely broken Gongshu Ye's understanding. It made him feel as if he had suddenly been enlightened.
"Ha!"
Chen Beixuan smiled when he saw Gongshu Ye's shocked expression.
"That's enough."
"I will arrange a place for you to stay with Li Er. You will be in charge of the workshop and the 8,000 craftsmen in the palace.”
"Your next task is to focus on forging the three-piece cavalry set and the horse stumbling nail. As for the crossbow, you can put it at the back for now.”
Chen Beixuan gave a few simple instructions and handed over the responsibility of the craftsman to Gongshu Ye.
"Thank you for your kindness, Imperial Teacher. This old man will never betray your trust.”
Gongshu Ye was also overjoyed. He did not expect Chen Beixuan to trust him so much and give him so much power.
Gongshu Ye could not be blamed for being so excited. This was a feudal society with distinct classes. The four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants, and businessmen were clearly divided. The workers had always been in the middle and lower class, and they were looked down upon by the higher-ups and nobles.
Gongshu Ye was grateful that Chen Beixuan had given him the entire workshop.
"No worries."
"This venerable self doesn't look at background, only ability. The only rule here is that the strong are above, and the mediocre are below.”
"Yes."
Gongshu Ye nodded with a smile and apologized to Chen Beixuan. Then, he went to study the book in a hurry.
……
……
With the Gongshu clan in place, all the preparations could begin.
Immediately.
Chen Beixuan began to divide the items.
The first thing they did was to send 30,000 young men to reclaim the wasteland, each experienced farmer to lead ten women to cultivate, and 40,000 old men to transport the salt to the salt mine…
Although it was still a little messy, it could be used.
"Li Er."
"Pass down this order and get General Zhang Han to cooperate with you. If there are any troublemakers or disobedient managers, hang them up as a warning to others!”
In troubled times, heavy punishment should be used!
Dealing with these prisoners of Mount Li, if he used gentle methods, then there would definitely be a lot of trouble. It was better to use a clean cut like this and eliminate the chaos at the root.
"Here."
Li Er nodded and left.
"Sigh."
"As expected, you don't know the price of rice, oil, and salt when you're not in charge!”
"We all know why those people want to be the emperor. Not only do they have to deal with so many state affairs, but they also have to constantly guard against the assassinations of the remnants of the six dynasties.”
Chen Beixuan cursed in his heart and looked into the distance.
He had to find a few people to deal with these troublesome matters!
"Looks like it's time to poach someone.”
Chen Beixuan immediately wrote down the names of Liu Bang, Xiao He, Han Xin, Fan Kuai, and Xiahou Ying.
At this moment, they were all low-class people. Xiao He was just a prison official in Pei County.
Liu Bang, or Liu Ji, was not even the chief of the Si Water Pavilion. He was just a street tumor who did nothing all day.
Fan Kuai was a butcher, and Xiahou Ying was a coward.
Han Xin was still relying on the old woman's help, living a miserable life of starving for three days.
At present, First Emperor Ying Zheng was like the sun in the sky, and Liu Bang and the others only needed to lure him with benefits to take him down easily.
The reason why he didn't plan to kill Liu Bang was that Xiao He, Fan Kuai, and the others had a personal relationship with Liu Bang. If he rashly sent people to kill Liu Bang, he might escape. It was better to trick them into coming to his side first.
At that time, even if Liu Bang was a hot shot, he would not be able to cause any trouble under his eyes.
However…
To be on the safe side.
Chen Beixuan still wrote a letter to each of them, inviting them to Xianyang and promising them riches.
Soon after.
Chen Beixuan summoned the Snow Dragon Riders and asked them to form teams of ten.
Chen Beixuan wrote two more letters to invite Lord Bifengjun Wuluo and Lord Bizhenjun Baqing to a banquet in Epang Palace.
These two people could be said to be one of the richest merchants in Great Qin.
Chen Beixuan's purpose in inviting them was simple. He wanted to use them to help his caravan take shape.
