I was a gentleman in ancient times

Wei Su wants to see the guests from Yingyang, and Qin Zhan also has to deal with the report sent by Chaozhong.Back at camp, the two split up.

As soon as Wei Su returned to the tent, he saw a person sitting inside.Wei Su was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Duanmu. I really didn't expect Mr. Duanmu to go there in person."

Duanmu Song stood up, "You are back."

The two met each other and sat down, and a waiter brought tea and snacks.Wei Su didn't let anyone wait on him, so he retreated to the left and right, and the two began to talk.

"It's a long journey, and Mr. Duanmu has worked hard all the way here. I have explained it clearly in my previous letter. How can I bother you to make this trip in person? Just send a disciple to come here at will?"

For Duanmu Song's arrival, Wei Su was also very pleasantly surprised.

Duan Musong shook his head and said, "I've also seen the picture you sent me. I don't feel at ease about sending someone else here. After much deliberation, I'd better decide to go by myself."

Wei Su asked someone to send him a blueprint before, and he made it clear that he wanted to ask Mr. Duanmu to send Mohist disciples over to see if he could make the things on the blueprint.

He didn't take it seriously at first, there is really nothing in this world that Mojiazi can't make.After he saw it, he was shocked. If such a sharp weapon was made, the consequences would be disastrous.However, this kind of thing makes him very excited. If he can make such objects in his lifetime, it is not impossible for him to be famous in the history of Duanmu Song.

He held the drawing and studied it alone for three days and three nights, and finally came in person.

Hearing the whole story, Wei Su was amused. If you can come, it will not be in vain for me to spend a lot of time and effort to draw the blueprints.

Ever since he decided to leave Lou Kingdom and go to Shu, Wei Su has already started to make plans in his heart.In Lou Country, he didn't disturb anyone from Yingyang Academy, but since he was going to Qin Country, it was imperative that someone come over to help him.The Mo family was Wei Su's first choice target, so Wei Su directly resorted to his trump card.

The contacts he accumulated in Yingyang Academy earlier were still useful.He can't be busy alone, and there must be no one who should be troubled.

"Mr. Duanmu has worked hard from afar. Now that he is here, Wei Su must treat him well. Let's take a rest today, and take him to see the King of Qin tomorrow." Wei Su said.

Duan Musong was impatient, he would not listen to Wei Su's arrangement, he shook his head and said, "The King of Qin has met him in the Yingyang Academy for a long time, I always hate these red tapes, so I won't go to see the King of Qin. You just need to give this blueprint to I'll explain it well, and don't worry about the rest."

How can this work?Wei Su wanted to use the uncanny skills of the Mohist disciples to do things for him and for the state of Qin.How can you go through irregular channels?No matter what, you have to show your face to the King of Qin, even if you are a staff member who has been affirmed by the King of Qin.

Wei Su frowned on purpose, and said embarrassingly: "This is embarrassing. I can be regarded as doing things for the King of Qin now. What I ask the Mo family to do is equivalent to the King of Qin's things. If you don't get the consent of the King of Qin, This makes it difficult for me."

"Besides, my plan is not just to make such a thing, but to make many siege and defense weapons like this. In the future, when King Qin looks at the world, these things will come in handy."

"So my plan is to really build a huge workshop to produce weapons, armor, bows and arrows, swords and halberds... and so on, and supply energy to the soldiers continuously. Of course, this also includes the ones on the blueprints in Mr. Guard the crossbow."

After Wei Su finished speaking, he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.He quietly waited for Duanmusong to make up his mind.

Duanmu Song hesitated, what Wei Su said was contrary to the purpose of their Mohists.The Mohists hope for peace, and the things they make are for the benefit of the people.So when he saw Wei Su's drawing, he still thought about it for three days before finally making up his mind.

He intends to figure out the principle of this by himself, and then research it by himself, and has no idea of ​​using it in large-scale wars.So he came to see Wei Su in person, and he didn't intend to visit the King of Qin, but he just didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the various vassal states.

And what Wei Su said, let them Mojiazi make armaments and weapons, this is really hard for him to accept.Isn't this tantamount to letting them participate in the war.

Duanmu Song's face was cloudy and uncertain, it was obvious that his heart was at war between heaven and man.Wei Su was not in a hurry, bent his knuckles, and tapped the table lightly and rhythmically.

After a long time, Duanmu Song shook his head, "Excuse me, it's hard to follow orders. It's very difficult for us Mohists to make those weapons that kill people. This goes against the purpose of our Mohism."

Wei Su didn't feel annoyed when he refused, and said with a smile: "But the blueprint I gave to Mr. Duanmu, this city defense crossbow, can also be called a siege crossbow, it is still a magic weapon with amazing lethality. You can make it in the future. Isn't it also used in war?"

"..." Duanmu Song fell silent, how could he not know?It's just that he has never seen this thing before, and its mechanism is so ingenious that it's hard not to be tempted.He was thinking of studying in private, so it's not a big deal, right?

However, Wei Su saw through his thoughts, "Once this thing comes out, it will definitely become the world's most powerful weapon. Mr. Duanmu thinks, is it really all right?"

Duanmusong gritted his teeth, but he was unwilling to let him give up like this.As a Mo family, if you can't try to make such an exquisite thing by yourself, I'm afraid you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Wei Su laughed, how could he not understand Duanmu Song's state of mind at this time?

"But Mr. Duanmu, there are always two sides to everything. What you think is good is not necessarily good, and bad things are not necessarily bad. For example, it can be used to attack a city, or it can be used to defend a city. Just ask Mr. , you may define its true nature as good or bad?"

Wei Su stood up, walked back and forth twice, and continued: "In fact, our views are very close. I don't like war either. I hope the world is peaceful and people live and work in peace. But is the world really stable now? There are disputes between countries, large and small wars almost every year, and the people hardly have a peaceful life."

What Wei Su said was indeed the truth, the world was in chaos, the kings of the vassal states and the nobles of the noble families would not care about the lives of the people for their own benefit.Every time there is a war, the people who bear the brunt are naturally the people.

Wei Su continued: "Nowadays, gentlemen and sages pay attention to the theory of being out of the world and entering into the world. I used to think that I...staying in Yingyang Academy, keeping my ears out of the window, can avoid all disasters. But things are contrary to my wishes, even if there is no Lou There will also be Bei Kingdom, or other countries. They can seize by force, disregard the wishes of others, and use force to oppress them. I am like this in Yingyang Academy, but what about the other people?"

"Since I joined the WTO, I will do what I should do to change the world. If there is no destruction, there will be no establishment. Only by stirring up chaos can the world be changed."

Duanmu Song obviously disagreed, "It's just stirring up the chaos, the world is in conflict, what should the people do?"

Wei Su naturally thought about this question countless times, like a terminally ill person, only by finding out the cause of the disease and removing the lesion with a knife can he have a chance of recovery.This is a labor pain that must be endured. As long as you get through it, you will be very happy and the world will be peaceful.

"Only when the world is unified and the whole world is no longer divided, can there be no war and people will be spared from the pain of war. Only then will the Mohism's universal love and non-aggression be realized."

As soon as Wei Su's words came out, Duan Musong's heart was shocked, he didn't expect Wei Su to have such an ambition.Their Mo family has always been committed to both love and non-gong, and how many people's efforts are not as thorough as Wei Su, an outsider.

"The pain is only temporary. If this is unbearable, how can the world be peaceful in the future?"

Duanmu Song rubbed the edge of the tea bowl with his fingers, thinking, "That's why you decided to help Qin? Then how do you know that Qin will be able to unify the world?"

Wei Su smiled and said, "Because of me, and Mr. Duanmu, there will be more talented people in the future. Although Qin's conditions are no better than other countries, can't these things be changed?"

Seeing that the expression on Duanmu Song's face was a little loose, Wei Su spared no effort and said: "I admire the thoughts of the Mohists, but these things can only be reflected in the Mohist's own people. But in the future, if the thoughts of the Mohists can be spread The world will be truly meaningful at that time."

"It's the most dangerous thing to stand still. Like the things in your hand, even if I don't ask the Mo family to make them, I can still make them, but it just takes a little more time and effort. In fact, Mr. Duanmu can really consider mine. Suggestions, how to choose, and how the Mo family will go out in the future, all these have to be carefully thought out."

Duan Musong lowered his head, "This matter is of great importance, and the old man can't make the decision easily. Let's call the elders of the Mohist family to discuss it."

Wei Su nodded, "That's fine, after you have reached a conclusion in your discussion, you can decide whether to go to see the King of Qin."

As long as they went to meet the king of Qin, they showed that they were willing to do things for Qin.This is a great help for Qin. The Mohist's key techniques are unmatched in the world. If the Qin army wants to conquer the vassal states, its military equipment must be far ahead.With powerful weapon bonuses, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

In the original world, Emperor Wu deposed the Confucianism and imprisoned it for thousands of years.Here, what will it be like if a hundred flowers can still bloom in the future?

Wei Su couldn't imagine it, but why not try it?It was an accident that he came here. He has changed a lot long ago, and he doesn't care about it anymore.

On the other hand, Qin Zhan, who had no interest in politics, settled down after receiving Zhao Li's report.Mr. has done a lot for him and Qin.If I don't work hard, how can I have the face to join hands with my husband?

At this moment, Zhao Li came to report, saying that Wei Su had come.

Although Qin Zhan had already ordered him to come in as soon as Wei Su came, there was no need to report.But Wei Su insisted that Qin Zhan had no choice but to follow him.

Qin Zhan went to the door and welcomed Wei Su in, and made tea for him himself.Wei Su came here because he wanted to tell Qin Zhan about Duanmu Song of the Mohist family, and he probably told Qin Zhan about Duanmu Song's visit.

Qin Zhan heard novelty, and the things that can attract Mr. Duanmu must be extraordinary.Like the waterwheel that Wei Su took out before, it has benefited the people all over the world.Not to mention far away, the land of Shu is almost all mountainous land, and people often carry water on their shoulders to carry water up the mountain for irrigation.Now there are waterwheels, ponds and canals have been built, the water problem has been solved, and the grain production in the fields has also increased a lot.

Because the waterwheel was promoted by the children of the Mohists and the Tao family, the children of the Mohists were more and more praised by the people.

"Sir, I wonder what you gave Mr. Duanmu?" Qin Zhan asked curiously.

Wei Su talked about it, and Qin Zhan was fascinated, and said happily: "There is such a magical thing. With it, you don't have to be afraid of siege battles. But, if Mr. Duanmu doesn't want to get involved, what should we do?" ?”

"I hope he can figure it out? If it doesn't work, then we can only recruit another craftsman. But in terms of professionalism, the production progress and degree of completion must not be compared with Mojiazi."

Wei Su is not too sure, he is only [-] to [-]% sure at most.

Qin Zhan thought for a while, "Sir, do you want to set up a special armament production base in Shu? Just why did you choose Shu? Instead of other places? As we all know, the roads in Shu are difficult and transportation is difficult. The military equipment production base is built in Here, we must not spend a lot of manpower to transport it out in the future?"

Qin Zhan is really smart, Wei Su has never proposed this idea, but it is not easy to notice this from Wei Su's few words.

Wei Su really planned this way, and he would not hide it from him, so he said his plan, "Qin is weak and surrounded by powerful enemies, so now we can only hide our strength and bide our time. If we make armaments with great fanfare, it is hard not to attract People pay attention. In this way, can Qin State still develop stably? And if you want to manufacture a large amount of armaments without anyone noticing, only the land of Shu is the best place. The land of Shu is remote and blocked by mountains. People from the outside world generally think that it is a poor country. The difficulty of the road is even more daunting. With this layer of pure natural barriers, who would have thought that we would build armaments in Shu?"

"In fact, it's more than that. I also want to use Shu as a military base, and the training is also here."

Seeing that Qin Zhan was lost in thought, Wei Su smiled and took a sip of Qin Zhan's tea. The temperature of the tea was just right, and the ratio of strength to his liking.Wei Su was puzzled, he didn't expect Qin Zhan to know him so well, maybe he couldn't grasp it so accurately, right?How much work does it take to do this?

Whether Qin Zhan did it by coincidence or on purpose, Wei Su didn't know.After thinking about it, how long has he been in Qin, how can he figure it out easily, so he can only attribute it to a coincidence?

"Sir, you are right. I thought too superficially." Qin Zhan was ashamed, and could only think of the surface, but could not go deeper.

Wei Su shook his head, how could it be the same?He has skipped the current era to look at the problem, so he will naturally see it more clearly.In fact, Qin Zhan can think of these already very good.

"You don't have to underestimate yourself. Many problems can be cleared up by looking more and thinking more. In fact, you have neglected a little bit about the road."

Qin Zhan looked at him, not understanding what Wei Su had overlooked.

Wei Su walked to Qin Zhan's desk, found a roll of maps of Shu, and spread them out.Qin Zhan also walked over and stood side by side with Wei Su.This is a map drawn by Wei Su's method, and it can be said to be very accurate now.

Qin Zhan looked at the mountains, rivers and rivers on the map, but still didn't know why.The land of Shu is surrounded by mountains and mountains, it is not easy for outsiders to come in, and it is almost difficult for Shu people to get out.

Wei Su glanced at Qin Zhan, smiled, pointed to a certain line on the map and asked, "Take a look at what this is?"

Qin Zhan followed his fingers and looked over, there was nothing special here.But Wei Su brought it up, which means that it is very useful here, but he couldn't think of it.

"Sir, this is just a river. I don't know what you mean?" Since he couldn't think of it, he asked directly.

Wei Su smiled and shook his head, "Aren't these the roads?"

Before Qin Zhan could react, Wei Su continued: "This waterway is much more convenient than land. As long as there is a boat, you can go straight down the river, out of Sichuan, and into the Central Plains. I plan to build a shipyard in this place to specialize in Produce ships, and when everything is ready, the army will directly go south, attacking unprepared by surprise, who dares to stop?"
