The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 976

[Chapter 976 In front of the military department]

After hearing this, Fang Xiu had a smile on his face.

In any case, as long as the steam engine can be put on the ship, it means that the power of the steam engine can be greatly improved.

Many materials that were previously unusable can now be used.

Such as steel!

Fang Xiu looked at Xu Ze and said: “I will give you another five thousand taels of silver. You prepare the materials. After a while, you will build enough steam engines to use on the ship, the giant ship!

If you are not sure, build it in advance. A few small boats and a few small steam engines. Let’s try them out. Do you understand?”

After hearing this, Xu Ze’s face showed excitement and he hurriedly responded: “I understand, please don’t worry, I’ll give you this steam engine.” Give us the Mechanical Academy and we will definitely give you a satisfactory result.”

Fang Xiu nodded and said no more nonsense. He just waved his hand and warned: “Getting this steam engine on board is an extremely important matter. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire Chu State and the entire court are involved.

Therefore, you must be diligent and not slack off at all, remember?”

Xu

Ze replied hurriedly: “Remember!”

He had already guessed what the steam engine would be used for.

What happened over there in Nanyang, if nothing else, must be true.

The Shenji Battalion is the elite among the elite, and each one is as good as ten!

It is also equipped with Kamui and fire guns.

The fighting power is very powerful!

Even so, they couldn’t defeat those barbarians.

It can be seen that those barbarians still have some strength.

At the very least, their ship won’t be too bad.

At this time, the role of steam engine ships can be revealed.

Needless to say, Xu Ze also knew that the power of this steam engine ship was much stronger than that of an ordinary sailing ship!

So, he cheered up and looked at the students beside him.

He warned: “Have you remembered what Mr. An Guo just said?

You must not slack off. From today on, you can put down everything in your hands and follow me to study this steam engine ship.

You guys go and invite two A shipbuilding master comes over.

We can negotiate any amount of money. Let’s try to figure out the proportions in half a month!

Don’t be stunned, get moving!”

The Mechanical Academy is very busy.

Fang Xiu left the Mechanical Academy, but he was not idle either.

Go straight to the six departments.

It has been a long time since these six diseases were reported.

Fang Xiu did not embarrass the officials of the six departments.

Except for some positions in the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Personnel, the original people did really poorly.

Even the elders couldn’t stand it and told them to get out.

In other positions, the original people have returned.

Even so, there are still many people among these six tribes who are from Anguo Duke’s mansion.

Except for the Ministry of War.

Because the Ministry of War is special, they are still the same people.

Fang Xiu walked to the door of the Ministry of War Yamen.

The guards at the door all knew Fang Xiu, and when they saw Fang Xiu, they hurriedly saluted.

“I have met Duke An Guo in my humble position!”

Fang Xiu waved his hand, looked inside the yamen, and then asked: “Your Lordship, are you here?”

The two guards looked at each other and said in unison: “If you return to Duke An, we will Master Shangshu has something to do.” When

Fang Xiu heard this, he frowned slightly and said, “When I came here two days ago, Master Shangshu also had something to go out to do.

Why did he come here today and still have something to do?

I said your Lord Ma, Mr. Ma, are you hiding from me on purpose?”

When

the two guards heard this, they looked bitter and said hurriedly: “How can such a low-ranking official have such a responsibility? Your Majesty, Lord Shangshu is indeed not in the Yamen.”

Fang Xiu looked at them and asked, “Where is Lord Shangshu at this moment?”

“Are you here?”

The two guards looked at each other and replied for a moment. Not coming up.

“With such a humble position and humble position, how can one know where Lord Shangshu has gone? My lord, I really don’t know about this humble position!”

Fang Xiu heard this and sneered and said, “In that case, I am sitting in front of this Yamen. Wait, I don’t believe Mr. Ma won’t come back!”

After saying that, he actually sat on the floor and waited quietly.

When the two guards saw this scene, they were helpless and didn’t know what to do.

You know, the man in front of you is a dignified Duke.

Speaking of it, even their ministers can’t compare with it.

When other people use such rogue tricks, they still have other options, which is just to make a meal and throw them out.

However, if the Duke does this, what can they do?

I can only watch helplessly.

Moreover, he had to serve tea and water, squeeze his shoulders and beat his legs, for fear that the Duke would be weak and unable to stand firmly, and fall at the yamen gate.

If that were the case, their sin would be huge.

“My lord, please drink water.”

“My lord, please have some snacks.”

“My lord, why don’t you go back and rest first? If Lord Shangshu really comes back, I will humbly go to An Guogong’s Mansion to invite you. Look, How about that?”

Fang Xiuquan pretended that they didn’t exist, waved his hands and said angrily: “Don’t stand next to me and block the sun.” When

the two guards heard this, they both looked helpless.

At this time, Fang Xiu suddenly stood up and walked to the door of the Yamen.

He shouted loudly: “Ma, don’t think I don’t know you are in there! What did you say originally? Fang Xiu, your father and I are brothers by fate. I am your uncle. If something happens, I came to the Ministry of War to find Uncle Shi!

In just a few years, you have changed!

I am really in trouble now. You are pretending to be sick and you are out for something. You are interesting. Is

n’t

it so difficult to ask for some money and soldiers?

How could you, the Minister of War, not even get 50,000 soldiers?

How dare you say this back then ?

Why don’t you have the guts to come out now?”

When the two guards heard this, they broke out in cold sweat.

He looked at the guard subconsciously, as if he were a thief, for fear that someone might hear him.

Fortunately, there was no one nearby.

Otherwise, their Ministry of War Yamen would be in great disgrace!

Fang Xiu shouted for a long time. When he was tired, he sat down and said loudly: “I tell you, Ma Wenhua, I will not leave today. I will stay here with you.

One hundred thousand taels of silver, fifty thousand soldiers, Fifty thousand armors, no matter what, you must give me an answer today!

The dignified Minister of the Ministry of War has acted like a coward.

How shameful!

My uncle, I don’t have such a person as you! Fang

Xiu

cursed vigorously, turned around and spat at the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

Looking up, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of him.

Minister of War – Ma Wenhua!
