Fu Jinzhang stood up and looked into the distance with a smile. She stretched her upper body slightly, raised her head and took a deep breath, um... A gentle and moving sigh, with laziness and intoxication.

Guo Shao stared at her beautiful posture blankly, then turned his head to look along her gaze.

I saw the blue sky, the vast and colorful plains, the large wheat fields after harvest exposed brown-yellow soil, and white smoke was everywhere in the fields.

What are those cigarettes burning?Fu Jinzhan asked excitedly.

Guo Shao took a closer look and said: The fertility of the land is very important. After the crops are harvested, the farmers will burn the straw on the ground in the fields as fertilizer.

After saying that, he took out half a piece of wheat cake from the horse's back and started eating it with water.Fu Jinzhan glanced at him: Do soldiers usually eat this?Try it for me too.After hearing this, Guo Shao broke up a piece for her.

The smooth and vermilion lips of the calender kissed, and the jade-white white porcelain bit a small piece, and the brows frowned slightly.Guo Shao smiled and said: Chew more and it will become sweet.

She chewed for a while and smiled: It's really sweet!Actually it's not bad...

Guo Shao said: Of course, this kind of cake is not as good as a finely prepared staple food, and it is very coarse at first; but as long as you taste it carefully, you can still taste the sweetness and its original cereal fragrance.

It seems to make sense.Jinzhan smiled with a smile on his lips.

After a moment, she murmured softly: I have never been as comfortable, relaxed and so happy as today... Brother Shao was given to me by God.On that stormy morning, you were lying on the street so inconspicuously and trembling. It turned out that God was rewarding me with the most inconspicuous method.

Guo Shao listened thoughtfully, his ears tilted, as if he was savoring Fu Jinzhan's words and feeling what she could feel.

Fu Jinzhan turned his head to look at Guo Shao again: Do you know what I said in Jinxiang Palace yesterday?

Guo Shao snorted, looking a little dull. He didn't say much, but he was very attentive in his daily life.Fu Jinzhan said: I want you to be with me all the time.

Guo Shao thought about it and gradually understood Fu Jinzhan's meaning. Yesterday she said that when I was about to leave (leave the world) I wanted Guo Shao to be buried with him, probably to express an attachment... it was a bit extreme, but Guo Shao did not feel scared, but looked at her face movedly.

His eyes couldn't help but look at Fu Jinzhan's delicious lips.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.

The heartstrings that had just trembled were interrupted. Guo Shao turned around and saw that Lu Chengyong and the others had finally caught up.

Fu Jinzhan also looked back, squinted his eyes and danced the straight post road on the plain, and said: I still want to run between the heaven and earth, as free as a bird!

After hearing this, Guo Shao directly carried her on the horse.

This time he didn't run so fast, but ran with two guards.

Fu Jinzhan hugged him tightly from behind, and the soft touch from her back made people feel heart-pounding, and her warm face was also very comfortable to press on her vest.

That river is Caishui.Guo Shao pointed ahead from a distance, and several small hills in the distance where the river extended came into view.drive!He shouted and accelerated toward the mountain.

The group climbed up a hill, and Fu Jinzhan immediately made a sound in surprise.

On the hillside of the three riders, there was a noise from the wind, and other noises suddenly became noisy.

Looking out, I saw a large area of ​​houses with horizontal and vertical layouts placed in front of me, and the noise came from the complex.

Behind these hills and beside the Caishui River, it seemed like a small town was built, with rough and simple buildings, at least dozens of them.

A wide canal was dug out of the Caishui River and introduced into a valley not far away. It was divided into more than a dozen tributaries on the edge of the mountain. The river water flowed straight down the valley from above, like man-made waterfalls; there were also many houses in the valley.

Below the waterfall, you can see the huge waterwheel wheels turning slowly.

This is not a beautiful natural scenery, but it has a unique charm, especially the water wheel looks like a Ferris wheel in an amusement park, and it looks very magnificent.No wonder Fu Jinzhan burst out in surprise when she first saw it.

Is this Zaojiafang?Fu Jinzhan asked.

Guo Shao smiled and said: I asked the Empress Dowager to allocate a large amount of money from the inner treasury to build armor. The money was spent. Wherever it was spent, you see it is here.

Fu Jinzhan looked slightly and saw that there was a guard behind him immediately, so she didn't say anything.The guards now think she is Guo Shao’s wife Fu Ermei.

The waterwheel is the best.Fu Jinzhan said softly, very much like Fu Ermei’s remarks.Fu Ermei will pay the most attention to this simple and intuitive thing.

Guo Shao said: The water truck was made by Li Fang Office's office, and I only saw his achievements after I came back from Shu.This guy is a bit greedy for money, but I was so scared that I probably didn’t greedy anymore, and all the money was spent on my ideas. This time, I gained a lot from the pursuit of Shu, so I have to let the empress dowager reward him... Let’s go down and take a look!

The closer the valley, the louder the sound.

The river water poured down from above hit the huge water truck wheels, making a loud noise. The wheel was not very delicately made, and it rubbed loudly when it rotated, and it was rumbling between it and the conveyor belt; the clanging and rhythmic sound from the house must be the impact of the forging hammer.

The entire forging hammer assembly has basically not changed, that is, the power unit has changed from power accumulation to hydraulic power. The ancients used water trucks, including ships, and it was easy to carry them over according to the same method... Guo Shao did not take care of this step, and he was still fighting in Shu at that time.

This kind of workshop is too noisy, and it will always make people noise for a long time in the city, but now it has moved to the suburbs.

Hydraulic forging hammer!

It was actually done like this.

Guo Shao didn't know what the structure of the hydraulic forging hammer developed in human history was, but it was definitely not what he saw now. In fact, the device he made was very strange and inconsistent, but it could forge a whole piece of metal abrasive... It's enough to be used, but he couldn't figure out what the hydraulic forging hammer should look like.

The waterwheel drives this wheel.The water wheel is big and slow, and the rotor inside is small and fast.Guo Shao pointed at him and said.

Fu Jinzhan opened her eyes wide and looked at it with interest.In this dirty workshop full of dust, she looked like a pearl falling into ashes, and the scene was very strange at this time.

Did you see the iron chain hanging on the outside of the rotor?Guo Shao pointed again. When turning, the iron chain will be pulled because the direction is far and near.

The circular motion turns into linear motion, and the efficiency of the transformation seems to be a bit low, and there is no way to go.

Just then, two civil servants came in, and the Jiafang Office ordered Li Fang to breathe heavily, and he was just running.He immediately clasped his fists and said: Meet Guo Du, Mrs. Guo.

Another official who held the ceremony was actually Zan Jurun, the envoy of the guest province. What did this guy come here to do?Guo Shao ignored him for a moment when Zaojiafang and the Guzhou envoy were completely inseparable from him.

Li Shuling, you did a good job.Guo Shao patted his shoulder.Fu Jinzhan ignored them. She is Fu Ermei now and cannot say that there is a reward from the Ai family.

Li Fang hurriedly said: What matters are all about?... I am very happy to be ordered by Guo Du to be urged.

Guo Shao said: Keep doing well, I can’t treat you badly.

Fu Jinzhan asked softly: Did Li Fang make these things?

Li Fang hurriedly said: Madam, it’s all made according to the arrangements of the inspection by Guodu. I’m looking for someone.

Fu Jinzhan couldn't help but look up at Guo Shao.

Guo Shao said: Hydraulic transmission was made by Li Fang.

It’s not me, it’s Manager Lu, who built the ship... I’m looking for.Li Fang said.After hearing this, Guo Shao laughed and said: It is also a skill to find someone who can use it.

Li Fang smiled and said: Guo Du’s inspection has been over-reputable.

At this time, Guo Shao turned his head and looked at Zan Jurun who was left aside and asked: Is the envoy of Zan inspecting the Afang Office?

Zan Jurun bowed and said: I was attacking Shu a while ago, and the lower officials were in the Northern Army as the military supervisor. When they found that the new armor had a good defense, they were not very defensive in the past. This whole armor had a very high defense against sharp weapons, so they came to take a look at the workshop.

Guo Shao nodded and did not make any mistakes.This Zan Jurun has always been an official of the Zhou Dynasty. He was well-off, so there was no problem.

At this time, Zan Jurun said: Xiaguan thought it could be changed, for example, the helmet and the soldiers of the Northern Army said that it was not breathable, and the whole iron plate could not be worn when the weather was hot.General Guo was interested in seeing another look when he came over and asked someone to try another look.

It's really not breathable, and I don't feel comfortable wearing it.Guo Shao went with him to see it.

I saw that there were various armors in another room as a warehouse, and there was a guardian at the door, who probably managed the things coming in and out.

There was a pair of armor hanging on a wooden frame, and the chest and arms were not changed much, and the helmet and shoulder armor were slightly changed.

The helmet is connected by two pieces of armor with rivets. The iron plate on the top presses against the bottom. It is breathable in the middle, but the connection is two layers, so it is not easy to be inserted by weapons. The appearance on the top has also been changed, and a feather is inserted, which looks much better.

Zan Jurun said: When the Xiaguan watched the formation, he thought the clothes and armor were better, the plastic surgery was more majestic, and the morale of the soldiers was higher.There is also this shoulder armor, which makes it easier to move.

Guo Shao took a closer look and couldn't help but look back at Zan Jurun.

The mail at the moving part is thickened and is also connected to the plate armor. In this way, the soldiers can wear it directly without the need for both layers inside and outside, reducing the weight.

Guo Shao could see that the most troublesome thing about this pair of armor is not the main parts of the plate armor, but the mail that connects the parts, such as skirt armor; of course, the plate armor consumes more iron.

Sure enough, Li Fang said: The mail is laborious and costly. The dozens of workshops above are all made of mail, and only a dozen sledge hammer workshops below are enough.Fortunately, the inner treasury is generous in allocating money, so how can you not find someone if you have money?

Guo Shao said: Li Shuling Ting can find someone.

Li Fang said: There are not many masters who make armor, so the subordinates pay the master to take the apprentice...the empress dowager's money.
