Emperor Sun made his fortune from scratch

Yang Zhi and Deng Xin spent more than 20 days, coaxing and deceiving, plus coercion and temptation, to bring back more than 50 blacksmiths and carpenters in a row. Someone once found out that he had been deceived and wanted to escape halfway, but Yang Zhi set up a killer.

In addition to the craftsmen, tools including blacksmiths' furnaces, air sluices, hammers, anvils, sledgehammers, and grinding stones were also brought back.

According to Deng Xin, it took a lot of effort to transport these things out of the city.

Li Zhao was very happy and rewarded the two of them.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. He knew in his heart that these craftsmen were crucial to the development of the Zhaowu Army. Now that the number of soldiers has increased dramatically, there is an urgent need to build all kinds of weapons. Li Zhao was not stingy and gave the craftsman a lot of money and food.

The craftsmen were originally nervous, but they suddenly relaxed.

Let Zhao Xincai be responsible for the establishment of the Ordnance Department and serve as the first director of the Ordnance Department. Since Sun Feng's death, Zhao Xincai's personality has become much more stable.

"Qiqi Dashuai, the Wang family of Liucheng is willing to sell pig iron, but the price is a little more expensive. Deng Xin said.

"It doesn't matter. Li Zhao did not hesitate.

Damn the Lan family's price increased again a few days ago, and a long knife costs forty taels, who can stand this. Li Zhao was extremely annoyed, so he could only buy it hard.

"After buying pig iron, we first made long knives, bows, crossbows, and arrows. The armor process is complicated and time-consuming, so you can put it first. Li Zhao said.

"Don't worry, I will urge them to start construction as soon as possible. Zhao Xincai said.

Li Zhao suddenly remembered something, "Fuel is needed for striking iron, charcoal is easy to get, where can I buy coal?"

Yang Zhi said: "This thing is not difficult to buy, it can be bought in Lu County."

"That's good. Li Zhao let out a long sigh of relief.

With the Weapons Division, he no longer has to worry about being controlled by others.

Said to Yang Zhi: "You go and contact the Lan family and buy another batch of armor." Heavy armor is included, which can be purchased in small quantities. Be careful not to let them know about the Weapons Division.

"Don't worry, I know how to do it.

Wang Zichen had been watching from the side, frowning slightly. Li Zhao has recently promoted many people, such as Yang Zhi, Song Jun, Deng Xin and others, none of whom were born in the Yongwang Mansion.

Wang Zichen was puzzled by this, the soldiers of King Yong's Mansion were Li Zhao's original team. It stands to reason that Li Zhao's cronies should be reused. But Li Zhao only rewarded them with a lot of money, but never promoted them in a big way.

Zhao Xincai said excitedly: "Dashuai, I think that after some time, I can send someone to contact Chang'an and suggest that the imperial court send troops to Hanzhong." When the time comes, the Zhaowu army can cooperate with the Wei army to take Hanzhong. In this way, Your Majesty will be able to absolve us of the sin of rebellion. Even, it is possible to release King Yong.

Li Zhao nodded again and again, looking very approving of it, "You are right, Ben Shuai developed the Zhaowu Army for the sake of my Great Wei, and Ben Shuai dreamed of rescuing his father as soon as possible."

Wang Zichen's heart sank, and he finally found that something was wrong, and he saw a trace of coldness in Li Zhao's eyes.

Li Zhao returned to his residence and had just walked into the courtyard when he heard a quarrel coming from inside.

Rubbing his forehead, it was Zhang Chuxuan and Zhu Ying who were arguing, this was not the first time.

Zhang Chuxuan is the eldest lady of the Zhang family, a typical lady. Zhu Ying grew up in a cottage since she was a child, and she was more or less contaminated with gangsterism.

The very different living environments often lead to arguments over trivial matters.

Li Zhao was also speechless, Zhang Chuxuan was obviously three years older than Zhu Ying and taller than the other party, but he couldn't quarrel with the other party, and was repeatedly suppressed by Zhu Ying.

It is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, and he sometimes can't tell who is right and who is wrong.

Pushing open the door, Li Zhao walked in ............
