The last banquet of the apprenticeship ended in the cheerful atmosphere set off by Zhang Nan's "Teacher Said", and when he finally left, Zhang Nan told Du He that he had to think about what to teach in the near future, so Du He did not use it to study in his own house for the time being, and Zhang Nan had to go to the military academy to supervise the construction recently, and he had no time to teach Du He anything. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Du He was still very happy to agree, and said that Master's affairs are the most important, and Master will be busy with himself if he wants to be busy, as long as he can occasionally mention a few words to himself.

For such a discerning disciple, Zhang Nan is still very happy.

Under Du He's send-off, Zhang Nan returned to his mansion satisfied, and after a day's rest, Zhang Nan came to the place where Li Er assigned to the military academy, and just walked into the construction site, which was barely called a construction site, because Zhang Nan really didn't know what to call this place.

As soon as he walked into the construction site, Zhang Nan saw Wei Tianwu and a few of his subordinates pointing at the construction site, and there was a feeling of pointing at the country.

"Master Wei, it's been good lately." Zhang Nan smiled and said hello to Wei Tianwu.

"Eh, Lord Zhang, why is Lord Zhang free to come here today." Wei Tianwu said with a smile.

"Didn't I come to see where this military school was built? As far as I know, this military school has been under construction for a while, so why is it progressing so slowly? Moreover, Master Wei, as the secretary of the Ministry of Works, came to supervise the work in person, which really didn't make me expect. Zhang Nan said.

"Don't mention it, Master Zhang, I'm here today for this matter." Wei Tianwu smiled bitterly.

"Oh? Master Wei too? Zhang Nan asked strangely.

"Yes, Lord Zhang also knows that the construction of this military academy has been started for some time, but it has not been completed for a long time, and the emperor is a little anxious, so I will come here today to see what is going on." Wei Tianwu Dao.

"That's the case, let's go together, don't hide it, I just got a warrant from the emperor, and the emperor ordered me to add some things to the military academy." Zhang Nan said.

"Oh, in that case, let's take a look." After Wei Tianwu finished speaking, he made a gesture of please.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan also made a gesture of please, and the two entered the hot construction site that was working.

"The toy that Mr. Zhang will give me is really ever-changing, I took it to the Ministry of Industry and asked those craftsmen, none of them said that it could be made, Mr. Zhang will really have a lot of things, even this kind of magical thing can be made." Wei Tianwu remembered the Rubik's Cube that made him so difficult that he didn't want to eat, and said.

"Master Wei has won the award, don't dare to be it, don't dare to be it." Zhang Nan was modest.

"There is also the method of shaft furnace iron-making that Mr. Zhang gave back last time, I also ordered people to hurry up the manufacturing, I believe that it will be made rough in the near future, and Mr. Zhang must come at that time, the mold of the shaft furnace given by Mr. Zhang has been taken away by the emperor, and I believe that the emperor will also come to see the shaft furnace ironmaking." Wei Tianwu said.

"It must be, but I don't think this folk is doing it very energetically?" Zhang Nan saw the people who were moving things on the construction site, and asked strangely: "Could it be that Lord Wei, the supervisor of the Ministry of Works, has abused the people's husbands?" ”

"Eh, where is Lord Zhang talking about, the emperor has already ordered it three times, and he can't be whipped at will, otherwise wouldn't the emperor be the same as Emperor Yang of Sui?" Wei Tianwu hurriedly explained.

"Oh, that's right, but why do I look tired when I see this man? Is it so difficult that Master Wei asked them to work all night without resting? That's not going to work. Zhang Nan said.

"This ...... I don't know, that, Wang Ge, you are the head of the overseer here, tell me, whether you let these people work overnight. Wei Tianwu asked at a man in official uniform who was following him.

"No, absolutely not, where do the lower officials dare, the lower officials dare to guarantee, except for the last time there was a man who couldn't afford to fall ill and died of illness, no man died, Lord Wei, tell me, are we building something? What is this not slow to say? This fight can't be beaten, and they can't be allowed to work continuously, and the emperor wants this military academy to be built quickly, and there is no way for the lower officials. Wang Ge said with a wry smile.

"Then does this man have any money to get after his work?" Zhang Nan suddenly asked.

As soon as Zhang Nan's words came out, Wei Tianwu and Wang Ge both looked at Zhang Nan with a strange gaze.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan touched his face and asked, "What's wrong, is there anything on my face?" ”

"How could Master Zhang ask such a question? This man built things for the emperor, this is a natural thing, the emperor did not let the overseers whip them, and did not let them work overnight, this is already benevolence, how dare these people ask for money? Wei Tian said of course.

After hearing this, Zhang Nan sighed, and secretly cursed feudalism in his heart. Although Li Er's policies towards the people were already very good for other emperors. But the lack of a reward mechanism, is that individuals will not be interested in working, this is not interested in working, where can you do it fast?

"Then did Master Wei ever think about paying these people?" Zhang Nan asked suddenly.

"Haha, Lord Zhang, you must be joking, pay your salary?" Wei Tianwu said with a smile.

But Zhang Nan didn't take Wei Tianwu's words, Wei Tianwu realized that Zhang Nan was not joking with himself, but was serious, so he put away his smile and said: "This, I want to too, but I really can't do it." ”

"Why can't you do it, you can ask the emperor if you have no money." Zhang Nan asked strangely.

"What Lord Zhang said lightly, Lord Zhang, you are a celebrity around the emperor, what do you do and say anything, the emperor can listen to it, but the subordinates are soft-spoken, and the funds approved by the emperor are only enough to build this military academy, I also want to give some silver taels to these people so that they can support their families, but I really have more than enough heart and not enough strength, does Lord Zhang think that I don't pity these people who have been recruited?" Wei Tianwu smiled bitterly.

Zhang Nan looked at Wei Tianwu's expression and didn't look like he was lying, so he had to sigh, Zhang Nan couldn't change the status quo, after all, his ideas were still a little ahead of the Tang Dynasty, even if he asked Li Er for money, Zhang Nan believed that Li Er would not give it, which from ancient times to the present, there has not been an emperor who has recruited the people to give money to the people.

Zhang Nan continued to walk with Wei Tianwu on the construction site, although the things in the military academy had already been built, but Zhang Nan was missing some training facilities.

As he was walking, Zhang Nan heard the overseer not far away holding a broken gong and began to strike, and when the people heard the sound of the gong, they all looked happy, put down the work in their hands, and began to move towards a place.
