Liu Qi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered what happened at that time, no wonder that look was so strange, just smiled bitterly, and heard Li Ru say: "Kill if you kill!" Nothing is a big deal! As for those onlookers, let them die and die, who told them to rush up...... Greed is also a sin! Liu Qi felt speechless, from ancient times to the present, that person is not greedy for small gains, that is the nature of human beings, don't say anything great or the like, when they are not great, there must be little things that no one knows.

In Li Ru's eyes, everyone has a way to die, although this explanation is very unacceptable to Liu Qi, at least he feels a lot more comfortable after learning the inside story! It's just that Liu Qi didn't think about it, he was a farmer, but he lost his land in Chang'an, even if he was honest, under the desire to survive, he might do something shocking, I have to say, harsh government is fiercer than a tiger!

Li Ru raised his hand and said, "You! It's so tender! It's not a good sign to be too soft-hearted! Be ruthless to the enemy, even if it is a hidden enemy! "The truth is this truth, but if Liu Qi really wants to do it, it will be difficult, after all, people are flesh and blood, and if they want to become cold-blooded, they can't be cold without certain changes......

Liu Qi walked out of Li Ru's courtyard, the poisoner is really a poisoner, poisonous to the enemy, and poisonous to himself, as long as the goal is achieved, but is this path really suitable for him? The moon showed its face, the slight starlight blinked and blinked, and the cool night breeze made people feel a little refreshed, but when Liu Qi raised his head, he was stunned......

Bai Mang rowed across Heluo, I'm afraid something is going to happen again! Although Liu Qi's astronomy has become more profound with the breakthrough of Taoism, he has not yet reached the realm of "seeing the starry sky and knowing the world", and he is still far behind!

Liu Qi then shook his head, something is estimated to be against the coalition army, after all, the matter of the jade seal caused Sun Yuan to turn against him, but he can't remember the specific time, not to mention that Luoyang at this time is still in Dong Zhuo's hands.

Liu Qi didn't know that just today, Dong Zhuo sent Zhu Jun to Luoyang, which caused panic in Guanzhong's generals, because he was not effective in guarding Chang'an two months ago, and removed Huangfu Song from his official position......

Liu Qi slept a little uncomfortably this night, he never could be as cold-blooded as Li Ru and Jia Xu, maybe he could in the future, but now he is far behind...... Liu Qi didn't expect that the two major poisoners in the late Han Dynasty were both born in Xiliang, and in that ruthless environment, if they weren't ruthless to themselves, I am afraid they would not be able to survive......

Liu Qi got up with dark circles under his eyes, and he got up a little late today, and even the sunlight could penetrate through the cracks in the window. Liu Qi pushed the wooden window, and then smiled stupidly, because Lori was standing not far from the window, looking at him with small eyes......

Lori grimaced and said, "Big lazy insect Qi, Lai Kang!" The little girl carried the curly skirt and ran away immediately, leaving Liu Qixiang to cry without tears, so she scared the girl for the first time, but she didn't expect that she was caught lying in bed immediately afterward......

I have to say that Lori has a natural "healing", after this interruption, Liu Qi's originally somewhat depressed heart is much better, in the end, he grew up in a greenhouse, and it is acceptable to kill enemies, but it is still too much for him to hurt innocent people......

It's only three days, even one day earlier than the original plan, Liu Qi is about to "enter the palace", fortunately, he doesn't have to remove a certain part of his body, and he doesn't have to worry about it! Liu Qi carried a small package on his back and said goodbye to home, probably in this family, only Xiaobai and Jueying were the happiest, because they didn't realize anything at all. What, you said there is still Xu Huang's horse? Well, Xu Huang has already calculated, when the foal grows up, this horse will do the work of a donkey, or pull goods, or pull the mill, anyway, the millstone hut is in the backyard. Jia Xu likes to eat tofu very much, so he naturally hates that horse pulling it every day......

How is the night? The night is not young. This is a sentence in the Book of Songs, and it is also the origin of the name of Weiyang Palace. Weiyang Palace, also known as the West Palace, falls in the southwest corner of Chang'an, the preference is that Weiyang Palace just occupies the highest place in Chang'an City, it is really "a glance at the mountains"!

Weiyang Palace is very large, there are four Liu Gates (outer gates of the palace), Liu Qi enters Weiyang Palace and walks in the north que, which is actually the que that the people take when they go to the book, and there is also a que in the east, but that is the road when the princes enter the palace. In this era, there are rules and regulations for taking any road, and once violated, it is a big sin to transgress it!

Liu Qi followed the guards who led the way silently, and the place they went to was the northwest corner of the front hall of Weiyang Palace, where there were two rows of large houses, the far one was the workshop, and the near one was the money casting workshop. However, Liu Qi wanted to do private work, so Li Ru was arranged to the south of the arsenal, but in terms of location, it was northeast......

It has to be said that the craftsman has no human rights, even if his position is ahead of the merchant. But as soon as Liu Qi entered the smelting room, a sudden wave of heat hit, and with his physique, he still frowned.

The previous Zhong Guanling had just been dismissed, but this did not delay the minting of money, because in addition to Zhong Guanling, there was also the assistant officer of the Taiwei - Jin Cao! said that they were the assistant officers of the Taiwei, but in fact, they were not controlled by the Taiwei, they obeyed Shang Shutai. Liu Qi was just about to say something, but a big man wiped the sweat from his forehead, frowned, and said, "With such a heavy land, how can idle people come in easily!" ”

The guard shouted and said, "Bold! This is the newly appointed Zhong Guanling! The man frowned, and although he stared at him suspiciously, his body couldn't help but tremble......

Liu Qi sighed in his heart, he was an honest man, and then took out a copper seal from his pocket, dipped it in red clay, found a piece of yellow paper, and printed it gently......

A group of men, except for those who couldn't leave, all dropped their work and knelt down facing Liu Qi, the original man's voice was a little trembling, and said, "I don't know...... It's you...... I...... ...... sin" Liu Qi waved his hand and said, "The ignorant are not guilty!" My name is Liu Qi, and I am the newly appointed Zhong Guanling! That's it, it's you! Liu Qi pointed to the man who was trembling and panicked, and then said, "What should you do!" You! Tell me what our division does! ”

The group of men dispersed suddenly, and as for the remaining men, they were a little flustered, followed Liu Qi to the outhouse, and said, "I, my name is Huang ...... Huang Feng! As soon as Huang Feng said this, the pressure in his heart was suddenly released, and then he said: "Zhong Guanling, I really don't know it's you!" The previous ones have never even come, even Jin Cao is the same, calling a person is to make a call, where do you want to get ......"

Liu Qiyi waved his hand and said, "Okay! Needless to say! Huang Feng paused his tongue, swallowed his saliva, looked at Liu Qi cautiously, and said: "The work of this money casting division is loose and loose, and it is tight and tight, after all, the copper to be minted has to be transported from the defense copper division!" Liu Qi said: "Defend the copper division? Huang Fengdao: "It's the debate order!" ”

Liu Qi said: "Do you pay attention to your work, don't be nervous, just chat!" Huang Fengdao: "It's okay, this set of processes is generally fine, most of the injured are apprentices, and there is nothing wrong with old people like us!" ”

Liu Qi looked at Huang Feng with a strange gaze, Huang Feng then blushed and said, "People like us have been learning since they were six or seven years old, and that age is mostly recognition. When I am about thirteen years old, if I have the strength, I have to get started, you calculate, when I am my age, I am not an old man in this industry, what is it! Liu Qi then smiled, indeed, looking at Huang Feng, it is estimated that he will have more than thirty, so if you calculate it, you have been in the industry for at least twenty years, and this is not true......

Huang Feng led the way, came to a master craftsman, and said to Liu Qi: "This is the most skilled craftsman in our company, surnamed Qian, we are all led by him!" Craftsman Qian's hair was all white, and he didn't even have much flesh on his face, he was very thin, and he said in a loud voice: "Hello Zhong Guanling!" Liu Qi pointed at him, smiled bitterly and said, "At such an old age, don't do it anymore!" ”

As soon as he said this, Master Qian no longer had the grace, and he knelt down in a hurry, and the whining cry made Liu Qi at a loss! Liu Qi pulled Master Qian and said, "Did I say something wrong?" Huang Feng was bold and said: "If you don't let him do it, without this money, life will be even more difficult!" Besides, now Master Qian doesn't work, but once there is an accident, he is our backbone, after all, after so many years, nothing has been experienced! Experience is the greatest asset! ”

Liu Qi nodded, looked at Master Qian with a hint of guilt, changed his words, and said, "That's a good word!" By the way, what are these things? ”

There were some pottery on the desk not far away, Liu Qi picked it up curiously, and found that this turned out to be a pair, and the other half of the table in his hand happened to form a whole.

The earth-colored pottery doesn't seem to be anything special in appearance, and even the appearance is a little rough, and even some places are concave at the edges, and the pair with the half just happens to form an opening. However, what made Liu Qi feel a little excited was that this pottery was very smooth on the inside, and the two words were a little awkward, similar to the reflection left and right in the mirror, and the word "five baht" was a bit eye-catching.

This is really a money model, Liu Qi was a little excited, he didn't expect it to be so advanced in the Han Dynasty! Huang Feng looked at Liu Qi's happy expression and said, "Zhong Guanling! You are holding a money-making abrasive, and it's called 'Fan'! ”

Liu Qi said: "Fan! Huang Feng said: "The fan made of pottery has an advantage, that is, it is not afraid of high temperatures, like copper has turned into water, but Fan has not even changed its shape!" Huang Feng said: "This fan is a face on one side, which is the piece in your hand, and the other side is the back fan, which is the piece on the case!" You see, there is no 'five baht' on the back fan! ”

Liu Qi took a look, and sure enough! Huang Feng said: "The biggest problem with this money-making method is the accuracy of the fan, and the name is also very easy to remember, 'Hefan coinage method'!" Liu Qi nodded, became interested, and said, "You don't have to worry about me, just keep talking!" ”

When it came to professionalism, Huang Feng was like scratching an itch, not vomiting or unhappy, and said: "Look at this pottery fan, it is rectangular, the same as the city bricks!" This mouth is on this short side, and these few round seals are the places where the money will be formed! This row is five or six, there are three or four rows in total, and when copper water is poured, at least twenty big coins come out! There are even some big fan, which is fifty five-baht coins at a time! ”

Huang Feng pointed to the small dot at the end of the fan, which was a triangle-like shape, but the other half of the fan was broken. Huang Feng said: "This is used for positioning, insert it with iron wire, etc., and then clamp the fan with large pliers, this fan is broken, it can't be used, the positioning hole is broken, and if it is not tied firmly, the coin is easy to deform......"

Liu Qi felt an eye-opener, thinking that this trip was really not in vain, but unfortunately, although it was separated by a wall, the heat from the big house inside still made him very uncomfortable. Huang Feng smiled and said, "To be honest, I admire you very much!" After all, there are very few high-ranking officials like you who can come here (one Khan, a petty official of 400 stones, in Huang Feng's eyes, is a big official) ......" Liu Qi said: "Since you do it, you must do it well!" ”

Huang Feng looked at him with some solemnity and said, "What you said is so good! Liu Qi asked, "How many people are in this division?" Huang Feng said: "There are not many craftsmen, in fact, there are only sixty people who work, and they are still on duty every other day, after all, they are for ......" Huang Feng quickly stopped his mouth, and when he saw Liu Qi's expression as before, he couldn't help but let go of his heart. Liu Qi said: "Among these sixty people, there are a few who can work! Don't tell lies! ”

Huang Fengdao: "You ......" Liu Qi said again: "There are apprentices, there are masters, there must be some full numbers, these sixty people are on the surface!" What I want to ask is, how many people can really complete the process of minting money? ”

Huang Feng looked up at Liu Qi, then stretched out three fingers with his right hand, and clenched his left hand into a fist, if a modern person saw it, he would be confused, but the ancients happened to be from right to left. Liu Qi groaned: "Thirty? Well? Huang Feng swallowed his saliva, looked at the sharp eyes, and then retracted a finger with difficulty. Huang Feng heard the smiling Shangguan say again: "Twenty? Well? ”

Almost all the flesh on Huang Feng's face was squeezed together, his right hand became a finger, and his left hand became a figure-eight! Eighteen people, no more, no less, think about the number of people who must have fled from Luoyang to Chang'an, and my heart is casual again......

Liu Qi had a headache thinking about the task arranged by Li Ru, after all, the number of people was too small, and I am afraid that this efficiency was also very low. Liu Qidao: "Have you always been like this? Huang Fengdao: "A few years ago, there were more than 200 people, but what is the use of more people!" Every dynasty is the same five-baht coin, and there is still less in circulation in the market, and no matter how much it is minted, it will only be hoarded by those rich people, even if it is short of money, it can be exchanged for things! ”

Liu Qi patted his forehead, and suddenly remembered that this is a small peasant society, self-sufficiency is the main tone of society, and it is an era when you can solve it by yourself and never spend money to buy it! It seems that there is a shortage of money, but all the money has been taken away by those big clans......

"Crunch", someone pushed open the door, and the grinning Li Bing hugged Liu Qi with a fist, and then walked to Liu Qi's ear and said: "It's cleaned up over there, just wait for the young master to give an order...... "Okay, Li Bing is used to being rude, when he was in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, he was a Cheng biting gold, seemingly innocent and romantic, but in fact, he had a lot of flowers, but it was also very interesting to interact with this guy......

Liu Qi can't be a single officer, Li Bing is the "dog leg" sent to him by Li Ru, but he has been busy renovating the house and moving equipment in the past few days...... (To be continued.) )
