"We don't want silver for this transaction." Wang Yueyao gently pushed back a stack of silver notes that Liang Da put on the table, "We just need the deduction of materials."

"I wonder what Miss Wang wants?" Liang Da asked.

"Iron, cast iron, and ripe iron can be used." Wang Yueyao said with a smile.

Liang Da showed a look of embarrassment on his face: "Miss Wang, you also know that this iron can be a strategic material and cannot be bought and sold at will, otherwise it will be a serious crime."

"How can it be a random transaction?" Wang Yueyao chuckled and said, "General Liang, don't forget that my leader is now the general of your Daqi. Didn't Lord Shu tell you? Selling iron to his friendly troops is not an illegal or irregular situation, right? Moreover, General Liang should also know that we are about to go to Shayang County to fight, but we are poor and want to get some iron to build some weapons, which is not too much, right?"

Liang Da shrugged, is Taiping City considered a Qi army? Well, from a certain aspect, they are also true. But Wang Yueyao is right. With this tiger skin, selling the iron to them will become a big deal.

"Just this price?"

"We understand." Wang Yueyao raised a hand, "General Liang is naturally also a wise man. As long as it is not outrageous, we will accept some difference. Moreover, this is just a matter between you and our Taiping City, Lord Shu will never know."

Liang Da beat him up, no wonder Lord Shu fell in love with this person only when he met this woman. Such a smart, understanding and fairy-looking woman is naturally loved by everyone.

"Okay!" Liang Da put away the silver notes on the table and put them in his arms: "At most half a month, Taiping City will see this batch of iron ingots, but it is hard to cook iron, so it can only be iron."

In Taiping City, Qin Feng was watching houses built with stones. In the northern corner of Taiping City, there was a cliff behind it. In front, a wall of more than ten meters high completely separated this area from other cities, forming an independent small kingdom.

This is the factory area that Qin Feng attaches great importance to. In the future, it will be both the Taiping Army's military factory and the money-making machine in Taiping City.

"Boss, I want to go back to the army, I want to go to the battlefield." Qin Feng walked from one house to another with his hands behind his back. Ge Qingsheng, the lord of Taiping City, was with him, and behind Qin Feng, there was a tail hanging. After coming out of the lord's office, he kept following Qin Feng like this, with a sad face, and occasionally said such a few words.

Qin Feng smiled on his face, as if he hadn't heard the clever hand's thoughts at all, and he ignored it. Ge Qingsheng's face was full of gloating expressions.

The reason is very simple. Because of his skillful hands, Qin Feng kicked out of the army and threw them into Ge Qingsheng's government office. He served as the supervisor of the workshop and also served as the general supervisor.

Naturally, he was unwilling to do so. He kept pestering Qin Feng, wanting to change his mind and let him return to the army.

"The house is built very sturdy. This is how the workshop should be." After walking out of the last house, Qin Feng couldn't help but praise Ge Qingsheng.

"Boss, I want to go back to the army, I want to go to the battlefield." The clever hand on one side came up again and said in Qin Feng's ear, which made Ge Qingsheng, who was about to be humble, feel embarrassed. Looking at the clever hand that was almost pressed on Qin Feng, he could only take a few steps back.

This is Qin Feng's iron-core old subordinate. Although Qin Feng transferred this guy to his subordinates, the relationship between them is unmatched. They are old brothers, and he can only be regarded as Qin Feng's senior worker.

"Qizhaoshou, you are going to design and supervise this symbol statue in the courtyard?" Qin Feng pointed to the huge statue at the entrance. It was a powerful man with a naked upper body and a pair of trousers and hairpins. He held a hammer in one hand and a saw in the other, but he was carrying a big knife behind him. However, the appearance of this statue looks like Qizhaoshou himself.

"Yes!" Jieshou looked sad. "Most of the use of craftsmen are hammers, chisels, saws, etc."

"Why are you carrying a big knife behind you?"

"I want to tell everyone here that even if they are just craftsmen, they must take on the important task of defending Taiping City at any time, and the big sword must be ready to be unsheathed at any time."

"Well! That's what I mean. This sign and statue are well designed." Qin Feng clapped his hands and praised: "Since that's the case, why can't you stay here as a chief magistrate and have to return to the army? Can we defend our Taiping City here? "

"Boss, I want to go back to the army, I want to go to the battlefield." The clever hand drooped his head.

"Skillful hands, tell me, do we soldiers need weapons when we go to the battlefield? But where do we come from? Here!" Qin Feng pointed to the rows of houses behind him.

"Brothers need money to eat, drink, defecate, urinate, sleep. Where does the money come from? Here!"

"This is a battlefield without gunpowder." Qin Feng straightened his body, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. "There are no sharp weapons here, and the strong shields are made. Our soldiers will be innately at a disadvantage on the battlefield. If we cannot make more money for Taiping City, our soldiers will go hungry. This place is many times more important than if you go to the battlefield to kill enemies!"

"Boss, I..."

"Skillful hands, you are proficient in various manufacturing techniques, skillful hands, and designed things that are amazing. How many enemies can a person like you kill on the battlefield? Ten, one hundred or more? Even if you can kill so many enemies, can you compare with the value of your work here? Your comrades and friends will increase the hope of survival on the battlefield because of the fruits of your labor. They can use the weapons you created to kill more enemies. This is the value given to you by God. Just stand in front of this statue and reflect for me. When will you figure it out and when will you report to Lord Gecheng?"

Leaving this sentence, Qin Feng turned around and walked, took a few steps, but turned around and looked at his clever hand standing under the sculpture, "By the way, this statue looks like you, look, this is God's will, you should be here, right?"

Ge Qingsheng held back his laughter and walked quickly with his head down, fearing that he would laugh out loud. Behind him, he sat on the ground with his hand and looked up at the statue, "Retribution, Retribution!" When he was making this statue, he had a sudden idea and copied his appearance. He didn't pay attention to anything at that time, but who knew that Boss Qin's eyes were so vicious. Now, he was thrown here, and there was cause and effect! He was dejected by his head. From then on, he would say goodbye to the battlefield and be passionate, and instead spit on the stars with a group of craftsmen here.

Back at the city lord's office, Ge Qingsheng finally couldn't help laughing loudly, "General, this time the clever hand shot himself in the foot and trapped himself, hahaha!"

"You have coveted him for a long time. Isn't this time just fulfilling your wish?" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Yes, I've wanted to get him over, but he is the general's old brother, and I want to go to the battlefield, so I can't pry it! Now, I can't let it go to the supervisor. With his ability, and with Miss Wang, the supervisor of the Business Department, Taiping City will surely be rich in the future!" Ge Qingsheng said with his beard, shaking his head and shaking his head.

"The old people in the Death Camp are mostly driven away and are fighting backwards. Sometimes, they have to be tough for them, and there are no conditions to talk about. If you want to touch them, they dare to go to the end. Since they have grabbed their sore spots, they will naturally have to chase them." Qin Feng smiled.

"Then the only general has this prestige, we can't do it." Ge Qingsheng shook his head and said. "General, I will report to you the specific situation of Taiping City in the near future."

"Yeah, let's talk!"

"Let's talk about farming first. Farming is the foundation of a country. Although we have a small family, this farming is not easy to do. Since the beginning of spring, with our Taiping City as the center, we have built about twenty villages, the largest of hundreds and the smallest of dozens. With the free supply of farm tools, seeds, oxen, etc., we have cultivated more than 100,000 mu of desert land. The achievements are gratifying, and now all seeds have been sown. After the officials have gone to see it, the farmers have all used their best care and taken care of them. Although they are growing fields, they are better than fertile. With these proficient agricultural affairs, they are probably going to see the first bumper harvest year. By this time, about half of the grain used in Taiping City should be solved."

"Also, the people sent by Zou Ming before the New Year are still smuggling people who escaped from Qiren's controlled area to us, and the new village is still being formed."

"We have made demands on these people, and in the future, we should focus on getting those who have skills, such as blacksmiths, carpenters, stonemasons, tailors, etc."

"Now we have gathered about two hundred blacksmiths, more than three hundred carpenters, more than one hundred stonemasons, the smallest tailor, only fifty people. Compared to our huge demand, this gap is a bit big."

Listening to Ge Qingsheng's report, Qin Feng asked: "This time we captured tens of thousands of young and strong Shuntian Army. Can't such craftsmen be found here?"

"General, we dare not use these people now. We will have to choose some gentleness in it after a while, step by step." Ge Qingsheng said.

"You have some reason, but you can do some statistics first. Those who have a skill will put more effort into them. They were ordinary people not long ago, and were not vicious bad people."

"yes!"

"In addition, don't always expect to get people from outside. Craftsmen are controlled no matter where they are. We still have to train a group of people to use them with confidence and comfort. Especially in the future, we must come into contact with some core secrets, and we must be completely trustworthy."

"This official will get it."
