Of course Zhang Chen wasn't out of his mind.

In fact he was sober, more sober than ever.

When he followed the convoy to the bottom of this building, he was attracted by this building at the first sight. Unlike those who thought this building was a miracle of the Raging Flame God, Zhang Chen soon discovered that Yes, this integrated building is actually covered with a special paint on the entire wall, so it looks as if it is integrated.

However, the building was built so high and so stable that it didn't even fall down in the harsh weather where strong winds often blow in the Western Regions, and it seemed to be able to do a job with ease.

At first, Zhang Chen thought that the Lieyan Sect had hired craftsmen from the Central Plains to assist in the construction. After all, such a tall building in the Central Plains is no longer a big deal. Both pagodas and pagodas can be seen with 5 floors, even in the Western Regions. It can only be said that the craftsmanship of the craftsman is exquisite.

But when they entered the hall, Zhang Chen and his party were stunned. From the outside, it was completely unimaginable that the hall was so luxurious. However, when the followers were paying attention to the luxurious decoration of the entire hall, Zhang Chen focused his eyes on the ceiling. superior.

He found that the ceiling of this hall covered the entire hall, and there was such a heavy chandelier that it didn't appear to bend.

All the high-rise buildings in the Central Plains are actually hollow. No matter how many floors there are, the middle part will be left out. This is also to prevent the floor from being unsupported. When people walk on the floor, the floor will not be supported and will bend and collapse.

However, this building was completely different. The smirk on Zhang Chen's face immediately disappeared, and his expression became serious.He took out the small hammer that he carried with him, went to the walls and pillars supporting the entire ceiling, and struck without hurting the walls.

In order to hear the echo of Zhang Chen's image, he directly lay down and put his ear next to the pillar.

Hearing the dull echo, Zhang Chen's expression became more and more solemn. Such a large pillar was actually solid, and he had not received the news that Lie Yanjiao, the brick shop, had ordered large quantities of red bricks. The red bricks are not enough to support the completion of this building, and the story of the Lieyan Sect renovating the houses for its congregants has spread throughout the Western Regions.

Zhang Chen couldn't remember when the Guardian Zuo who came to receive them left. He got up and followed the maid leading the way up to the second floor. When his subordinates were full of emotion, he subconsciously He jumped up and down on the ground, completely ignoring the expressions of the subordinates beside him, "It's over, Fangzhu is crazy." ' look.

Listening to the echo sound similar to the ground on the first floor, Zhang Chen was finally sure that such a house was definitely built with special methods or special materials.

But what is it that supports such a large building?

Zhang Chen recalled the large quantities of steel rods that the young master of the Lieyan Sect ordered from him. Those steel rods really exhausted all their blacksmiths. A large wave of gold, silver and jewelry came over, but the blacksmiths in the workshop still had lingering fears about Lie Yanjiao.

Could it be that batch of steel rods...

Zhang Chen felt that he was about to get to the truth of the matter, so his thoughts were interrupted. Zhang Chen looked up and saw Zuo Hufa standing in front of him with a dark handsome face.

Zuo Hufa couldn't figure out why the young master still wanted to see the man in front of him after hearing about his insane behavior, but he couldn't question the above order, Zuo Hufa said to Fangzhu Zhang: "Master Zhang, Our young master has an invitation, I wonder if Fang Master is free?"

Zhang Chen readily agreed, just as he still had some questions he wanted to ask Young Master Chu face to face, he turned his head and asked his subordinates to have fun by themselves, and went up to the 5th floor with Guardian Zuo.

Although this distance will not make him breathless, standing at such a high place is still a very novel experience. Zhang Chen found that there is a window at the turning of each staircase, but today is dusty, and the window of the window Page is closed.

Zhang Chen couldn't help but imagine, what kind of beauty would it be if he stood at such a high place on a sunny day and had a panoramic view of the entire Western Region?

Guardian Zuo didn't have this kind of leisurely mood. He took Zhang Chen with his face, walked through a corridor, walked to a door, knocked on the door, and heard a sound from inside.The cool voice of a teenager.

"Come in."

"Young Master, Fangzhu Zhang has already brought it here." Zuo Hufa opened the door and lowered his head respectfully and said to the young man sitting behind the desk who was writing quickly. This is the first time Fangzhu Zhang clearly saw this Little master.

This young master inherited his mother's flowery beauty. Even Zhang Chen, who was used to seeing beauties in the capital, had to admit that this young master and his mother were among the top three beauties he had ever seen.But now Zhang Chen's mind is not on this at all, he was just amazed for a moment, and then his mind turned to the building.

However, when he opened his mouth to ask people what the house was made of, it obviously meant to inquire about the secrets of the Lieyan Sect, so Zhang Chen cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I don't know why the young master asked me to come here? If I can do it I will definitely do my best for the young master."

Chu An put down his pen, and said to Zhang Chen with a slightly gentle expression, "I heard that Master Zhang has a brother who works in the yamen?"

Zhang Chen became nervous when he heard this, could it be that the Lieyan Sect committed some serious crime and needed to recruit people from the Yamen?If the crime is not serious, it is generally released by default, but if the crime is serious, then it can only be a joke.

However, he still said with a smile on his face: "Old Wu is indeed my brother-in-law, and now he is working in the Yamen. He is just a small headhunter and has no great rights."

No wonder, Old Wu and he were sent by the emperor to the Western Regions as errands. There was a lot of news exchange between the two, and Old Wu and his current boss actually had a good relationship with his subordinates. Could it be that this young master is What did you hear?

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind, but only a few seconds passed in reality.

Zhang Chen heard the little young master say, "No, I just need him to help pass on a message. I wonder what arrangements Lizhou county magistrate has for those prisoners locked in prison?"

Sure enough, Zhang Chen squeezed the palm of his hand indiscriminately. This young master is going for the criminals. Could it be that when Old Wu and the others arrested the members of the Lie Yan Sect?Impossible, if Lao Wu catches someone from the Western Region sect, he will definitely tell him, but recently, apart from the group of horse bandits sent by Lie Yanjiao, Lao Wu and the others have almost patrolled the entire Lizhou County in their leisure time. .

Zhang Chen said with a smile: "There is no arrangement. Those prisoners are just living in the prison for nothing. Lizhou county magistrate complains to Lao Wu every day. I don't know when those people who are living for nothing will be released and beheaded. After all The court’s quarry has not yet been built here, and there is no hard work for them to do for the time being.”

"Old Wu complained to me before that he was not as comfortable as the prisoner by himself. At least the prisoner can lie down in the shade of the dungeon to sleep in the hot weather, but he can only patrol the streets under the sun." Zhang Chen He said with a smile to Chu An, trying to make Chu An understand that they did not treat the prisoner badly, so that the little young master would not be angry and let the left guard who had touched the long knife next to him chop him off.

As soon as Chu An heard that the prisoner was very free in prison, his eyes lit up: "Since these prisoners are so free, I wonder if Master Zhang can tell me something with the magistrate of Lizhou County?"

"About the revenue generation of the Yamen."

-------------------------------------

"That young master of the Lie Yan Sect really said that?" Wu He looked at his old friends in front of him with question marks all over his face. Although they had good relationships with those sects from the Western Regions, some of their relationships could still be called good.

But it was the first time he heard such a request.

Zhang Chen nodded helplessly, and now he has completely lost the flattering and frivolous expression he had when he was in the inn. He said: "Although it is unbelievable, that young master really wants to reach a cooperation with the government and hire those in the prison Prisoners work."

"According to the young master's opinion, those prisoners are idle anyway, so they might as well come out and do some work. As for the wages, he will pay the yamen directly."

Wu He looked at Zhang Chen with a little surprise when he heard it, and said jokingly: "I'm going to agree after hearing what you mean?"

He knew his old friend. Although he had been an undercover agent in the Western Regions for so many years, Zhang Chen never chose to tolerate some issues of principle, and occasionally seemed a bit rigid.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Chen nodded calmly.

Looking at the surprised expression on his old friend's face, Zhang Chen said, "Do you know the inn of Lie Yanjiao? It's the inn where I attended the opening ceremony a few days ago."

Wu He nodded curiously and said, "That inn has become the topic of discussion in the entire Western Region now. Could it be that, as the rumors say, that inn looks like it grows out of a stone?

Zhang Chen shook his head, and said with a serious expression: "That inn is the reason why I agreed to cooperate with the young master of Lieyan Sect."

In the following time, Zhang Chen told Wu He what he saw and heard in the inn, focusing on the floor of the building.

"...Zhezi, I have sent it back to the capital as soon as possible, and I request the emperor to send an adult who is in charge of this matter to discuss cooperation with Lie Yanjiao." Zhang Chen took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the table and said .

Wu He stroked his chin and said with a serious expression: "This is indeed something to be reported to the emperor. If a material that can support a 5-story building is placed on the city wall, it will play an unimaginable role. The matter of the prisoners I will go in person, those prisoners really shouldn’t be so idle.”

Speaking of this, Wu He smiled and said: "It just happens to be able to generate income for us. I have been an undercover agent in the Western Regions for so many years. I have really worked as a headhunter for so many years. The yamen is poor. Sometimes I want to give it to you." Let the people below raise their wages, but they can’t even open their mouths. I don’t know how the young master thought of hiring prisoners to work?”

"Is he not afraid of those prisoners rebelling?"

-------------------------------------

The head of the Snow Lotus Sect stared stiffly at the scene in front of him. In the quarry, his carefully cultivated spies and the horse bandits who originally contacted them were numbly mixing a cloud of gray mud, and he didn't even notice that he had arrived.

And the right protector, who was in charge of the caravan route, said with a smile: "These people are really good at work, and they work very hard every day. They are so tired that they fall asleep once they go back to the dormitory."

"There's no time to think about anything else."
