The strongest engineering student in ancient times

Zhao Sanhu's courtyard.

When Qi Yibai told him that the Hundred Confucianism Academy ordered twenty bows and crossbows, and it would be best to make twenty long bows and crossbow parts within five days, he said very excitedly:

"Where it takes five days, at most two days, I'll make it for Brother Bai!"

Zhao Sanhu was very excited. He could get six or seven coins for one crossbow, and thirteen or four taels of silver for twenty bows and crossbows!

Thirteen forty taels of silver! !

In the past, Zhao Sanhu worked day and night making furniture, and it would take at least a year to earn this amount.

It only takes a day or two now.

Zhao Sanhu and Aunt Zhao were short of breath, almost unable to believe it was true.

Let alone five days to earn so much money, he can do it in one day! !

Qi Yibai naturally understood their disbelief, but he didn't expect that the academy would order twenty pairs at a time.

According to the memory of the original owner, there is no such weapon as bow and crossbow in Yannan Kingdom. At first, he was worried that they would not be able to accept the new weapon of bow and crossbow, but he did not expect them to accept it so easily.

Qi Yibai said to Sanhu:

"Uncle Zhao, please tell me after you finish the bow and crossbow parts, I have something to do now, I have to go back first."

Qi Yibai planned to find a place to live first, he didn't even need to guess. When Qi Fugui returned with the divorce letter, Li Xiu'e would definitely be eager to drive him away. He was planning to go to Bairu Academy to find out what was going on and find out if there was any How many people want to buy crossbows, and there are three ready-made crossbows in his system backpack, try to see if they can be sold.

After thinking about it, Qi Yibai went back to his small shabby house, packed all his things into the system backpack, and went to the town.

When Qi Yibai appeared on his bicycle, many passers-by who had never seen him before all showed surprised expressions and asked the people around him:

"He, how could the wooden frame wheel he was sitting on move by itself?!"

The person who happened to be standing next to him heard this and said enviously:

"You don't know this. It's called a bicycle. It doesn't need horses or cows to pull it and you can walk around, but it's very expensive. It costs 30 taels of silver. Only rich people can afford it."

"Three, 30 taels? It's just that strange-looking wooden frame wheel, and it's going to sell for 30 taels? Hey, does anyone really buy this? No matter how you look at it, it's not as affordable as a carriage."

As soon as they heard that it would cost 30 taels, many people immediately dispelled their curiosity. How could ordinary people use such a novelty.

On the contrary, there were a few young men who were in a hurry, just when they heard this, they immediately looked greedily at the back of Qi Yibai who was leaving on his bicycle.

30 taels? !

That broken wooden wheel can sell for 30 taels!

One of the skinny boys with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes quickly turned his head, looked at the head of a young man with dark skin and fair facial features, and said:

"Brother, look, do we want to..."

He spread his five fingers, and then clawed back, making a gesture of grabbing.

The young man, Chang Yunqing, shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, it's just a broken wooden wheel. If you snatch it, no one may want it. Let's have a look again. Now I can't keep up if I want to."

……

Qi Yibai didn't know that he escaped unintentionally. He parked his bicycle at the door of an inn named Ke Yunlai. guest.

It was Qi Yibai who took the initiative and said:

"Xiaoer, is there any room available?"

The waiter came back to his senses and nodded quickly:

"Yes, please come in quickly."

When Qi Yibai came in with his bicycle, the guests who were drinking and chatting in the lobby of the inn all looked at the bicycle that Qi Yibai was pushing.

"What kind of ghost is this? It looks so weird."

"A pushcart? But it doesn't look very practical, right? It should be easy to fall apart, the wheels are still one in front of the other, and there is no place to put things. No matter how you look at it, it is a failure. It is better to study such useless things. Spend some time researching good weapons. It is said that this year's new weapon selection competition has a lot more prize money. Alas, I don't have such a brain, otherwise I will definitely build seven or eight new weapons to participate in the competition. , but you can get a reward of 100 taels of silver!"

"It's not so easy to develop a new type of weapon. It has to be powerful or simple and practical. It's been several years, and I haven't seen any new type of weapon. I'm really afraid that someday the Xita will kill us. I I haven't even learned a set of saber techniques, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life in a fight, why do you think it's so difficult to practice martial arts!"

New weapon selection competition? !

As soon as Qi Yibai came to the counter, he heard the conversations of several young people at the table on the right. He was taken aback for a moment, as if the original owner remembered that there was indeed such a thing as the new weapon selection competition.Because the surrounding area of ​​Yannan Kingdom is not peaceful, and Yannan Kingdom has a vast territory and insufficient troops, the imperial court advocated that all people should be soldiers, and encouraged the people to take up weapons in their hands to resist foreign invasion at any time, and allowed people in some prefectures and counties to carry weapons with them. A new type of weapon selection competition was specially held to encourage the common people to actively research good and practical weapons for easy promotion.

Qi Yibai's eyes lit up, how could he forget about this!His bow and crossbow have great lethality, are simple and practical, and can definitely participate in the selection competition.

If he can be favored at that time, he doesn't have to worry about the sales of the crossbow at all!

He was very excited and wished to participate in the competition right away, but the selection competition was held every spring in his memory.

Qi Yibai wrote down this matter, and asked the shopkeeper for a herringbone room on the first floor, which cost thirty yuan a day.

The next day.

Qi Yibai pushed his bicycle to Bairu Academy early in the morning.

He placed thirty arrows and three crossbows next to the academy and lined them up on the ground.

Those scholars who came to school saw Qi Yibai's eye-catching bicycle at a glance. After all, Qiu Ziyue rode a bicycle in the academy. They walked in only to find out that Qi Yibai is a twin.

But when they saw the bow and crossbow, it didn't matter whether the opponent was a man or a pair, they were astonished.

"This is a crossbow! Is it the crossbow used by Qiu Ziyue!!"

The one who spoke was a young boy with freckles on his face. He was a follower of Duan Tianhong. Since Duan Tianhong lost the competition that time, he hadn't come to the academy for two days.

If he brings this to Duan Tianhong, he will definitely get a lot of benefits!

Qi Yibai didn't know what the freckled boy was thinking, so he nodded and said:

"Exactly."

The young Feng Yuda said excitedly:

"Quick, how much money, give me a pair... No, let me have two pairs!"

"Is this really the crossbow used by Qiu Ziyue and Liu Jinsong?"

"Yes, they all look the same. I want to buy them too. I don't know how much money it will cost."

Qi Yibai was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that young man wanted two bows and crossbows all at once, bows and crossbows are so easy to sell?

Qi Yibai said hesitantly:

"Ten taels of silver a pair."

Feng Yuda was taken aback for a moment, and the money for buying books on him didn't even reach 20 taels:

"It's so expensive, then, let's get a pair first."

He said that he paid for it and bought it. He planned to send this pair of crossbows to Duan Tianhong first.

When other people saw that they wanted ten taels of silver for a pair, they retreated a bit, but there were also people who asked Qi Yibai:

"Brother, can this bow and crossbow really hit a hundred shots? Can you try it first?"

"Yeah, give us a test shot to find out if it's true or not. If it's true, I'll ask my dad to buy one and keep it at home. It's safe."

Hearing this, Feng Yuda also looked at Qi Yibai, as if he was afraid of being deceived, and wanted to confirm whether it was as magical as the bow and crossbow used by Qiu Ziyue.

Qi Yibai naturally had no objection, because he saw that many people were very interested in bows and crossbows, so he asked some of the scholars to try them out.

All the people who tried it were pleasantly surprised and excitedly said:

"It's amazing, I really hit it, this crossbow really hits every shot!"

"I obviously felt that I didn't aim as accurately as my brother said, but I managed to hit it."

"I want this crossbow, give me a pair,"

"I, I bought it too, at most I will be scolded by my mother when I go back."

"Why are you so quick? I want it too. Brother, do you still have a crossbow?"

Seeing this, Feng Yuda was relieved and entered the academy, while those who hadn't bought a crossbow pestered Qi Yibai to ask if they still had any.

Qi Yibai wondered:

"It's out of stock. If you want it, you may have to wait for a while."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you have it, I can just raise money first. When will you sell it again? You can save a pair for me. By the way, you also made this bicycle? How much money do you want?"

Hearing that bicycles cost 30 taels, many of them stopped thinking immediately, thinking that bows and crossbows are better, they can be used as life-saving weapons, and they can also pass the archery assessment.

After Qi Yibai wrote down the five people who wanted bows and crossbows, he went back.

He was very happy. According to this popularity, the task of selling one hundred bows and crossbows was very likely to be completed. Next time he could directly bring twenty or thirty bows and crossbows to try.

And in the academy, some people living in the academy heard that someone was selling bows and crossbows at the door, and wanted to go out to have a look, but they were told that Qi Yibai had left, so they had to regret:

"I also want to try whether the bow and crossbow are really so magical, but unfortunately I have no chance."

"So what if I try it, I still can't afford it. It is said that it costs ten taels of silver a pair."

"It's so expensive, don't the merchants who sell bows and crossbows want to make a living?"

"Hey, the one who bought the bow and crossbow was Shuang'er. I don't think he made the crossbow. How could Shuang'er make such a magical weapon? The crossbow is so easy to use that he can even participate in the competition for new weapons gone."

Qi Youxue was reading a book, listening to the discussions of the students around him, what came to his mind, and hurriedly asked:

"The pair you're talking about, isn't it the thin one with a pale face and a dull pregnancy hemorrhoid between the eyebrows?"

Ma Yihua didn't understand, so he nodded and said:

"The pair are indeed as described, they are learned, do you know each other?"

How could Qi Youxue have time to pay attention to Ma Yihua at this moment, the bow and crossbow that hurt his mother and Youcai could be sold for ten taels of silver a pair!

Then if you sell ten pairs, you will have 100 taels! !

When Qi Youxue saw Qiu Ziyue and Liu Jinsong using them yesterday, he had already confirmed that the bow and crossbow that everyone said in the academy was the one used by Qi Yibai, and he also knew that this crossbow was made by Qi Yibai.

He really wanted to go back right away, but he had already come to the academy, so he had to wait for the next time when he wanted to go back.

no!He had to send a message back to let his mother know about it, Qi Youxue's heart was very hot.

Qi Yibai didn't know about this, so he asked Old Man Niu to send a message to the village chief, saying that if there was any news about He's house, he would call Yunke to bring the message.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, I got news that the He family had agreed to sell Tsukiji for four liang, and they were waiting in Xibei Village to let him go back.

Qi Yibai changed the bank note into a hundred taels of silver, put it into the system, and went back to Xibei Village.

As soon as Qi Yibai left the city gate, a young man with a mischievous eyebrow watched him leave, rolled his eyes, and ran back quickly, as if he was planning something.

Qi Yibai didn't know that he might be being targeted. After returning to Xibei Village, he went to the village head's house.

This time the land purchase went smoothly. After Qi Yibai received the land deed, he went to look at the house with the village chief.

……

Wei Qing sat in the empty courtyard, expressionless, showing no emotion.

He looked at the door, and subconsciously touched the bandaged wound on his back. He hadn't seen Qi Yibai for two days.

He somewhat regretted saying that to Qi Yibai, and Qi Yibai would never come to him again in the future...

"Village Chief, thank you for your hard work. I am very satisfied with this land, it is bigger than I imagined."

At this time, a familiar voice sounded outside, Wei Qing subconsciously looked outside the courtyard, why did he feel that he heard Qi Yibai's voice?

Wei Qing walked out of the courtyard uncontrollably, and saw Qi Yibai looking at the almost collapsed house next to him.

Zhao Hongxing and Qi Yibai heard footsteps, turned their heads and saw Wei Qing walking out of the yard.

Wei Qing looked at Qi Yibai with a hint of surprise in his dark eyes, and Qi Yibai felt a little embarrassed because he remembered the events of the previous two days.

Zhao Hongxing was also a little surprised, he had very little contact with Wei Qing, and in fact he was a little afraid to have too much contact with Wei Qing, just looking at Wei Qing's aura, he had seen blood.

At this moment, Zhao Hongxing could only say embarrassingly:

"Wei Qing, you came at a good time. Brother Bai will be your neighbor in the future. He has already bought this place and plans to build a new house. He is a brother. You should help me more in the future."

He said, and said to Qi Yibai:

"If there is no problem with the house, I have something to do, so let's go first, and you can talk."

Zhao Hongxing seemed to be impatient to leave, but Qi Yibai couldn't say anything more.

After Zhao Hongxing left, only Wei Qing and Qi Yibai were left face to face.

Wei Qing didn't speak, just looked at Qi Yibai.

Qi Yibai looked a little embarrassed, scratched his head to break the silence and said:

"I really didn't touch your back on purpose that day. If you hate me, I..."

"I don't hate you."

Before Qi Yibai finished speaking, Wei Qing spoke in a deep voice, looking at Qi Yibai with right eyes.
