Chapter 80 Armory Workshop

And the most important thing is that the dyeing and weaving technology mentioned by Shangguan Wan'er is indeed an excellent way to make money!

Different from the new forging process Liu Bian used to let the blacksmith practice based on his past life memories, even if he forged stronger weapons, he could not use them for other people.This kind of dyeing and weaving process can indeed be used to make cloth and then sell it.

"That's a good idea of ​​yours."

Liu Bian smiled and said to Shangguan Wan'er: "Alright, then I will leave this matter to you, but the current situation in Luoyang is not stable, you can sort out those crafts first, if you need manpower, just go find it." Huang Xu is an important person, tell him that within a hundred people, I will agree."

"Thank you my lord!"

This time, Shangguan Wan'er really showed a happy expression. When she smiled, her narrow eyes narrowed even more, and the waves in her eyes flowed, making her look extremely charming.

She is indeed a famous beauty under Wu Zetian...

Liu Bian couldn't help but take a second look, then waved and said:

"Well, by coming here this time, you have helped me solve two big problems. It's getting late, so go and have a rest."

Shangguan Wan'er turned her eyes to Liu Bian and Mulan, then showed a certain look of understanding, nodded and said: "So, Wan'er will leave, originally I wanted to ask my lord to go to my room to look at something. But... now it seems that it will be better to wait until tomorrow."

Before leaving, Shangguan Wan'er took a special look at Liu Bian with her long and narrow eyes.

"I believe my lord will be very interested."

When the door was closed, Liu Bian saw a smile on the corner of Shangguan Wan'er's mouth, which seemed to have some deep meaning.

To see her room?What are you looking at?
Liu Bian looked at the door and was thinking, when suddenly Mulan's voice came from beside him.

"Your Highness, the person has already left, why don't you still watch?"

There was a hint of jealousy in it.

"Forehead……"

Liu Bian turned to look at Mulan with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"No, I was thinking about something..."

"I'm thinking about going to Miss Shangguan's room, what can I see?" Mulan stared at Liu Bian with her eyes wide open.

"Um...no...what can she have there..."

Liu Bian suddenly felt that what he wanted to do tonight seemed impossible.

……

Early the next morning, Liu Bian welcomed a blacksmith who didn't know how to speak. He received three letters from He Zhen, his mother, Queen Mother He, and Tang Ji, as well as a completely cast black iron epee!

"Lao Ou, right? I remember you."

Liu Bian personally received Lao Ou in the courtyard.

"Master!"

Lao Ou had never been to Luoyang before, and the journey was tiring and full of travel dust.But even though he was obviously tired, his eyes still shone when he saw Liu Bian.

"Master! Your sword..."

Old Ou was still not very good at talking, he pointed at the genuine black iron sword already in Liu Bian's hand, showing a questioning expression.

"The sword is good! I am very satisfied!"

Holding the sword in one hand, Liu Bian turned it left and right in front of his eyes, looked at the intricate patterns on it, and nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that understatement, Old Ou stared wide-eyed.

This sword weighs 88 catties!Although it's not impossible for him, Ou, to hold it with one hand like this, it's like holding an ordinary wooden sword!
This young master must have so much strength!

While being surprised, Lao Ou heard Liu Bian's voice again.

"Old Ou, the letter said that you made this sword alone, do you remember the various crafts?"

"Remember!"

Lao Ou nodded quickly, and then said: "Master, this forging method is only known to me in the entire workshop! I have never told anyone else!"

"it is good!"

Liu Bian put the Black Iron Sword on the sword stand aside with his backhand, nodded to Lao Ou and said:

"In that case, you don't have to go back to Nanyang. From today on, you will stay in Luoyang. I will find a group of blacksmiths for you to set up a new ordnance workshop. You will take them to manufacture weapons specifically for our army!"

"Ah?" Old Ou was shocked, and then hurriedly said: "But young master, my whole family is still in Nanyang..."

"Don't worry, I will write another letter and send a team of soldiers to take all of your family to Luoyang. From now on, your family will live in Luoyang, and as long as I am here, as long as you do your best, I will naturally protect your family's prosperity and wealth."

Liu Bian waved back Lao Ou's words, and then said:
"Old Ou, I only know you as Lao Ou all this time. What's your real name and nickname?"

"My name is Ou Long. I come from a peasant family and have no nickname."

Lao Ou did not resist Liu Bian's arrangements at all, and just answered Liu Bian's questions honestly.

Oulong?

Liu Bian raised his eyebrows slightly. This name was a craftsman, but Liu Bian couldn't help but think of another extremely famous swordsmith.

This was really a coincidence. Liu Bian's heart suddenly aroused some bad taste that belongs to time travellers, and he immediately said: "Since you don't have a nickname, then I will give you one, how about you call me Yezi?"

"Oulong...Ou Yezi..."

Lao Ou lowered his head and chewed for a while, but then he didn't bow down directly to thank Liu Bian as Liu Bian expected, but saluted Liu Bian in a flustered expression:

"Master! Although Lao Ou has never studied, he has heard of Ou Yezi's name! Lao Ou is a blacksmith, but he dare not use his old name! Please forgive me, Master, and give me another name." Bar!"

Well, people also know Ou Yezi.

Liu Bian curled his lips, knowing that this was normal. After all, Ou Yezi was a celebrity in the Warring States Period and a blacksmith, so it was natural for Old Ou to know.

So Liu Bian frowned, a modal word suddenly flashed in his mind and then said:
"In that case, let's call it Maga! Oh Maga! Very good!"

"Omega..."

Lao Ou frowned, lowered his head and thought for a while, he didn't even know which Maiga it was, but since he had rejected Liu Bian once, and Lao Ou himself had never studied, Liu Bian said it was very good. He also thought it was very good, and immediately after reading it a few times, he hurriedly thanked him:
"Then Oulong, Oumaiga, thank you young master for your words!"

"Haha! Okay, you did a good job. You've been tired all the way, so go and rest first!"

Liu Bian waved his hand, telling Ou Maiga, who had just been named Oumaiga, to rest. Then he looked at the black iron sword on the sword stand next to him, and nodded again in satisfaction.

The current Luoyang City can be considered to have finally entered a period of stability again.

The people outside have begun to gradually resume normal production and life. Bao Xin is temporarily in charge of the stability of the city, while Wang Kuang has been appointed by Liu Bian to take over Luoyang's people's livelihood affairs, and the city defense is handed over to Sun Jian.

In Liu Bian's own military camp, Mao Zhihua also began to train the soldiers of Long Dan Camp in their medical skills. Mulan couldn't stay idle in the back hall, and had already gone to the military camp to train with Huang Zhong and Huang Xu.

Since Wang Kuang began to take charge of the people's livelihood in Luoyang City, the original [-] troops and horses under his command were all handed over to Liu Bian's men at this time. Out of loyalty to Liu Bian, Wang Kuang did not hesitate at all when handing over the troops.

As for the construction of the barracks, the construction of the ordnance workshop at Lao Ou's side, the weaving and dyeing equipment at Shangguan Wan'er's side, and other trivial matters, Liu Bian listened to most of them, and handed them over to Shangguan Wan'er for handling.

As for Liu Bian himself, he had a rare leisure time.
