Chapter 1110 1110: Thunder King [Ask for Monthly Votes]

Qishan seemed to feel that his words were not convincing, and added some small details: "The marriage between the two surnames is no different from other ones. Whether it succeeds or not does not depend on the will of the man and woman, but only on the interests of the family. If the family that married with the He family knew the situation of the He Shu brothers, they would only be happy. What a good handle this is? The He family is in the wrong invisibly when the two families are married. Even if the woman does not want to accept it, her parents will make her accept it. I have seen that lady, and she did not look reluctant in her words and deeds..."

The master has always been a soft-hearted person.

He explained it specifically because he was afraid that the master would feel uncomfortable.

Although in Qishan's opinion, there is no need to feel uncomfortable about this matter. In this chaotic world where men are accustomed to having three wives and four concubines, and women who behave abnormally will be criticized for being dissolute, it is reasonable for that lady to have two husbands, and it is impossible for He Shu and his wife to have concubines. No matter how much property the two brothers save in the future, the heirs will only be her children. Just this point alone can make many ladies who are deeply trapped in the backyard fighting for favor and worried about the inheritance of their children envious? It is more important for the three of them to live a good life than anything else_(:з」∠)_.

Shen Tang's reaction was not as big as expected.

She just nodded to show that she understood.

"If there is a chance, I would like to meet her."

Perhaps she is a woman with an interesting personality.

Qi Shan said: "If the master wants to see, he can see now."

Anyway, the whole family is now in his own territory.

"No, I don't want to spoil the fun, let's leave some time for the couple... three to get along." Shen Tang felt that this was a bit awkward. It would be a donkey kick to disturb the reunion of a couple who had been separated for a long time. Not everyone is like the group of singles under her account who don't have a partner who understands their feelings. "I also have to think about how to deal with the mess caused by the battle in Shangnan."

The timely evacuation and the special thunder and lightning caused few casualties among the common people.

The biggest losses in Shangnan County were the city defense buildings, residential buildings in the city, guards, and those noble families who chose to stay indoors during the war. Fang Yan's behavior of borrowing people in name but actually robbing them successfully forced some families to give up their people. These families lost their guards and were worried that someone would take advantage of the situation to rob.

They had packed up and fled long before the large-scale evacuation of common people in the inner city.

In other words, this was a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

They accidentally avoided He Shu's massacre of the Shangnan family.

Shen Tang looked at the news presented by Fang Yan, speechless for a long time, and his head began to hurt. He wanted to treat the table as He Shu and poke it through with one finger: "No, just look at this result. If I were a member of the Shangnan tribe, I would also doubt whether 'I' had reached a tacit understanding with He Shu! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? I surrender, it's really yellow mud falling off the crotch, it's shit if it's not shit. Even a passing dog can be splashed with a basin of shit! Recruiting He Xin and squeezing him for thirty or fifty years can't redeem my reputation loss."

Fang Yan hasn't slept well these days, and his face looks very bad.

The eldest brother left few memories for his brothers in this life. Shangnan County carries too many beautiful brotherly memories. Seeing the once familiar place turned into ruins, Fang Yansheng had the idea of ​​eating He Shu.

Although he hated it, he also knew that He Shu would not die as long as He Xin was there, and Shen Tang would not kill a meritorious official for He Shu.

At least he would not kill him in the middle of starting a business.

If he had to kill, he would wait until the day when the birds were gone and the rabbits died.

Fang Yan understood Shen Tang's difficulties and tried to suppress his personal emotions with reason. By the way, he reminded Shen Tang that the surviving clansmen of each family were trying to unite! Even if He Shu's life could not be taken, this blood feud would be transferred to the He family.

He Xin's entry into the officialdom naturally had countless enemies.

Even the children of the He family would be targeted when they entered the officialdom.

As long as the bloodline is not cut off, the hatred of ten generations can still be avenged!

Shen Tang asked, "Are there many people?"

"Not many people survived, but the families from all over the country have been intermarrying with each other for so many generations, and there are many families involved with them."

"Tsk, that depends on He Haogu's ability."

Shen Tang thought about it in his mind.

Finally, he waved his hand, indicating that this matter would not be mentioned for the time being.

After Fang Yan left, Shen Tang stared at the candlelight for a moment, until Qi Shan caught her slacking off. Qi Shan's right arm had just recovered, and the grip was not enough, so she could only continue to use her left hand. Without the interference of the snail girl Cui Xiao, Qi Shan handled official documents more fluently with her left hand.

Shen Tang refused to admit that she was slacking off.

"I'm obviously thinking about something important."

"Can Shan help share what the master is thinking and worrying about?"

Shen Tang blurted out: "I'm thinking, is it worth it to recruit He Xin and keep He Shu? When Fang Yan came, I felt that I was losing money. Just now I recalculated and found that it was worth it. Use magic to fight magic, use aristocratic families to fight aristocratic families. He Shu's act has made countless enemies, and there is no possibility of reconciliation for the blood feud, and the He family has also been pushed to the cusp. The He family has completely separated from the aristocratic families. If they want to continue, they can only rely on me wholeheartedly, right?"

Qishan said: "Of course."

"He Shu will be a very useful knife." If she wants to appease the aristocratic families in the future, she only needs to praise the He family and attract hatred, and she doesn't have to worry about the He family's defection, because the He family has no way out. Supporting one group and suppressing another group, it feels warm in the heart.

From this perspective, Shen Tang felt balanced.

Qi Shan said, "He will be."

It seems that the master is indeed not slacking off.

Shen Tang did not close her eyes at all during this night. She met the heroes who made contributions in this battle one by one. She even went to meet several generals who were recovering from injuries in person. It was already late at night when Bei Ju came back. As soon as he entered the camp, he saw someone waiting for him.

She was startled by Yun Ce who suddenly jumped out.

"Hey, why are you scary?"

Bei Jiu was angry and punched Yun Ce.

Hearing rustling sounds behind him, he turned his head and saw a group of Mohists watching the fun. He asked them to chase them away: "What are you looking at? If you feel free, go and work in the fields for another two hours."

They needed to cooperate in the construction of temporary residences for the victims, and the demolition of the ruins in the city was also a heavy task. Beijiu had not had much rest in the past few days, and he had to guard against the lightning rods that had not been removed on the battlefield. I travel all day long and only come back every day or two. The other Mohists heard this and dispersed reluctantly.

Until there were only two people left nearby.

"Say, what's the matter?"

What Yun Ce said was not what Bei Jiu expected.

"The Lord is looking for you. I'll wait here."

Beijiu entered office mode: "When did the Lord come?"

"It's been a few hours since I arrived."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Bei Jiu rushing towards the main tent: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? You could have sent someone to call me!"

Yun Ce followed quickly and whispered as he walked: "Don't be in a hurry. Your Majesty has been meeting other people before and didn't say it was an emergency. I just came to wait for you. Zhoukou, I have been waiting for you for several days." I haven’t seen you, but I want to say a few words to you.”

After the battle in Shangnan, Beijiu's attitude towards him became much better.

It's just that I don't talk as much as before.

Clearly still angry.

Bei Jiu glanced at him sideways: "I've never seen you talk much before! Even if you wanted to talk, you didn't even look at the time..."

Yun Ce smiled broadly: "Are you not angry anymore?"

Bei Jiu stomped on him angrily: "I'll deal with you later."

Yun Ce said: "I'll wait for you."

Bei Jiu was so angry that he warned Yun Ce with his eyes.

When they entered the tent, Bei Jiu had already straightened up his expression.

When she came in, Shen Tang almost pressed his face against the cloth. The latter knew who had come in without raising his head. He raised his hand and said, "Zhou Kou, come closer and take a look at this. What do you think?"

Bei Jiu came closer out of curiosity.

The cloth has crooked lines familiar to the painting style.

She squinted her eyes for a long time, trying to figure out the content without relying on explanations. The result was regrettable: "My lord, what is this painting?"

Shen Tang pointed to the line above the cloth: "This is the thunder cloud."

Then he pointed to the lightning line in the center of the cloth: "Thunder and lightning."

Finally, he pointed to the frame under the cloth: "As far as I know, He Shu's scribe's way can summon the sky thunder and transform the sky thunder into stable martial armor. I have an idea, can the martial armor be in another form? For example, a battery... is a thing that stores lightning, and then draws the thunder out of the 'battery' for use? "

Thunderstorms can also fix nitrogen, which is beneficial to agriculture.

She racked her brains to squeeze back the original value from He Shu.

Beijiu picked up the cloth and looked at it for a long time. He didn't have a clear idea for a while, but the Lord's proposal was not impossible to implement.

If He Shu could control it, things would be much simpler. If He Shu could only turn thunder and lightning into armor and stimulate the soldiers' combat potential, she would have to think of a way to fix the "battery". Bei Jiu was just confused, what did the Lord want with this thing?

Shen Tang thought about how to explain.

Here’s the simplest example: “Lighting.”

Beijiu said: "Candlelight will do, too."

"This kind of convenient promotion can be used by ordinary people."

Bei Jiu was even more confused and had to remind Shen Tang in a low voice: "If I remember correctly, Ling De's house seems to sell a kind of plant lamp that can illuminate? It's quite bright and the price is cheap. It's very popular in Fengluo and surrounding areas. Popular with students.”

It seems that this kind of plant lamp is still a big improvement for Lin.

Just looking at the written process, the overall cost of "batteries" is much more expensive than grow lights. It doesn't seem very cost-effective if you put this into daily use. When used in war, its power is not as good as others.

Beijiu feels that the price/performance ratio is not good.

Shen Tang said: "Lighting is just an insignificant item."

Alas, it is really inconvenient to have no electricity.

Bei Jiu heard this and said no more.

It's a good thing to be assigned a task from above. There are so many people in prison who are waiting for food. The project is big and the budget is big. What can you do for free? As long as the funds are in place, all requirements are not a problem.

Bei Jiu agreed without thinking, and before Shen Tang could show joy, she whispered about how much the budget could be.

Shen Tang's smile froze.

"Ahem, let's ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to give you a budget later."

Beijiu nodded and turned to talk about the posts of general supervisors, that is, the establishment. In recent years, as Mo Zhe established himself as a general supervisor and contributed to several major projects, his status and salary have also increased. The reputation spread, and Mohists from all over the country heard the news and came to seek refuge one after another. The number of Mohists who will serve as supervisors has been expanded several times, but there are always too many monks and not enough staff!

Many talented Mohists can only have a supernumerary status.

It not only affects salary, but also affects cultivation.

As a master craftsman, Beijiu naturally wanted to get a few more positions.

These words fell into Shen Tang's ears in just two words——

Make money!

She bit the bullet and said, "Let's go back to the staff."

Bei Jiu retired with joy, leaving Shen Tang holding his head in pain.

"Money, money, when will we not be short of money?"

When Qi Shan came in with a pile of new official documents, he heard her wailing. He swallowed the comfort on his lips and cruelly pressed the last straw. He took out the budget for rebuilding Shangnan County. Shen Tang skipped a bunch of raw material and labor quotations and looked directly at the final total amount. Suddenly, his vision went dark and he wanted to grab the land with his head.

They turned He Shu and Wu Xian over and over and cursed.

"By the way, there is also Wu Xian."

Taking down Gaoguo can restore some blood.

Wu Xian has many noble families under his command, and the noble families are famous for being rich.

"Poverty will indeed drive people to a dead end."

She couldn't wait to raise her butcher knife.

That being said, distant water cannot quench a nearby fire.

Shen Tang looked at the ruins in the city. Everywhere she looked was a string of numbers. Every one of them made her feel painful. It would be great if she could build houses and repair roads without spending money. She thought so and said so, which caused Qi Shan to mock her.

"No money? How does Xun Hanzhang check the accounts?"

Shen Tang pointed to the ruins and said: "Word spirit can solve all worries."

"Use word spirit to build houses and repair roads?"

"Look for it, maybe-"

Shen Tang stopped talking here.

Qi Shan didn't hear the next movement. He turned his head to look at her, only to see that the master looked thoughtful, as if he was recalling something. Shen Tang said: "I remember, there is this word spirit."

Back then, she was killed by this word spirit.

At that time, the literary spirit was not enough. Now, many years have passed, and her cultivation has improved. The national seal of China is abundant. At worst, there are so many "mobile power banks", so it is not impossible to give it a try! She didn't want to build many houses or repair many roads in one go, but just to succeed. There is no way, who told her to be poor now.

Every penny saved is a penny earned.

"My Lord?"

Shen Tang suddenly laughed foolishly: "Why not give it a try?"

Even if it fails, there is no loss.

Qi Shan looked confused, with a bit of ominous premonition in his heart.

"What to try?"

He Xin, who was immersed in the joy of reunion after a long absence, shuddered, and his back felt cold for no reason. Before he could figure out the source, a fragrant breeze drifted into his nose. He lowered his head and saw a pink and purple cloak on his shoulders. He knew who the person was: "Brother, have you fallen asleep?"

"He has fallen asleep, but he is not very peaceful."

He Xin thought of the obvious white hair on He Shu's temples, and sighed: "He sacrificed his life last time when the Way of the Scholars was activated..."

After his wife was sent over, He Xin did not continue to imprison his brother.

Let He Shu come out to breathe in the form of a literary incarnation, and it will also be convenient for him to talk to his wife and understand the trivial matters at home recently.

The wife raised her voice: "Life span?"

He Xin was just worrying about how to explain, and then heard his wife say with hidden anger: "Forget it, if you have to be so unkind, what can I say? Anyway, he is a scholar with a literary mind and lives a long life. If he consumes more of his life span, he may be able to walk ahead of an ordinary person like me."

He Xin knew that she was angry, so he didn't force an explanation.

The wife said: "Do you really want to become an official?"

The implication was to ask He Xin if he still wanted to leave.

Kangguo was showing signs of destroying Gaoguo. Once the meat grinder of war was started, it would not be easy to stop. If He Xin became an official, he would have to follow the army to fight in the south and the north, and he would definitely not be able to stay with her and the children.

"If I don't take office, my elder brother won't be able to protect me."

"Is Mr. Shen so overbearing?"

He Xin looked at his wife leaning over and said softly, "She is the superior, and she can decide life and death, just depending on whether it is necessary."

Today, I cleaned up my keyboards and found that many of them have been useless since I bought them. They have been sitting there for more than a year. I was thinking about whether I should just participate in the WB lottery to avoid waste.
