"Brother Qiu, long time no see!"

"Brother Yu, long time no see you, sit down, sit down."

Qiudongye enthusiastically welcomed Yu Cong into his bag, waved his hand, and drove all the guards out.

Both of them were just craftsmen before, but now they are all important officials of the Ming Dynasty. Similar experiences and the same lives have made them friends since they met, but they are far apart. One is in Baoqing by the sea, and the other is in Taiping in the mountains. They are usually busy people, and it is not that easy to meet them.

"Why does Brother Yu look much clearer?" Looking at Yu Cong's appearance, Qiu Dongye smiled and joked: "Is it because he was scared by our new chief minister?"

"It's not scary." Yu Cong smiled and said, "But it's true that my heart is anxious. The shipbuilding process of Ming Dynasty is now quite mature. I'm a little confused and don't know what the way forward. Brother Qiu, suddenly I can't find the motivation to move forward."

"Everyone is each other!" Qiu Dongye poured tea for the two of them, holding the teacup and sighed in a mournful voice: "I am the case. The research on weapons is also a long-term future. Whether it is a thunderbolt fire or a rushing car, in my opinion, they have developed to the extreme. What should I do next is also without any goal."

"We set a benchmark. Now the Qi people are trying their best to get there. You know that Ning Zefeng is not a pampered bag. If we stagnate, sooner or later he will catch up. The number of skilled craftsmen in Daqi is not inferior to that of my Ming Dynasty. As long as they find the right direction, they will eventually break the window paper." Yu Cong said: "So, I'm very anxious. If the combat power of our warships is of generation difference with that of the Qi people, it can naturally crush it. But if this generation difference disappears, it will become a war of attrition. Not to mention the losses of ships, the losses of the warriors alone are an incredible number."

"Brother Yu, your situation is much better than mine. Your warships are all big guys. Qi people can only look at the appearance and cannot see the inside. So, so, they can only fumble in the dark. If we really reach our level, I don't know that it will be different from the year of the Monkey and Horse Month. Do you know that the news from the Ministry of State Security has made me sleepless at night. Since Qi solved their steel manufacturing technology, iron smelting and steelmaking technology has made rapid progress. Although it is far inferior to us, it can already imitate our weapons. There are quite a lot of weapons like crossbows and thunder fires that have fallen into their hands over the years. In the past, the materials were not up to standard and they couldn't make them, but now, there are no such problems." Qiu Dongye looked worried, "They have started mass-producing crossbows."

Qi State is a mountain that needs to be climbed for every important minister of the Ming Dynasty. Even the current Ming Dynasty annexed Qin State and Chu State are just similar to Qi State above its territory, and it is even worse than Qi State above its population. When such a huge country suddenly wakes up and bursts out huge energy, every visionary Ming Dynasty person will naturally be worried about the future battle for hegemony.

It will be a battle sooner or later for Mingqi to have a battle, which is the consensus of everyone.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly next to the bed? Two tigers are not allowed to coexist in a forest.

"Maybe the above also saw this situation, so he summoned us to Beijing. I'm afraid that this time I will be scolded by Shougong Jin!" Yu Cong smiled bitterly.

"You are just scolded and then you can go back. I will wander under his nose every day in the future." Qiudongye said.

"Ah, Brother Qiu, you have transferred back to Yuejing City, you really want to congratulate me." Yu Cong said in surprise.

"Transfer back to Yuejing City and preside over the Weapon Research Institute." Qiudongye's face was not a little happy: "Tell me, I can't find the target at all now, how should I start my work next? We, the Jin Shoufu, said that being incompetent is just a waste. With my current state, I might be fine after a year or two, and we were completely beaten by our Jin Shoufu."

"Brother Qiu is overly worried." Yu Cong shook his head: "We are still different from ordinary officials. Sometimes we may fall into confusion, but in the blink of an eye, we will push away the dark clouds and see the blue sky and find our goal again. So, Jin Shoufu will definitely have a high tolerance for us."

"So what do you think? I don't think Kim Shoufu has such patience." Qiu Dongye shook his head.

"It was Mr. Ning who said this to me." Yu Cong smiled and said, "I am not the same as you. Now I am not only in charge of all shipbuilding, but also as the director of the Shipbuilding Research Institute. I am also pitch black in front of me, and I can only repair it on the existing basis."

"I can only hope that what you said will make your dream come true. When will the inspiration suddenly appear?" Qiu Dongye laughed: "Brother Yu, I am satisfied in this life. If that junior can emerge, I will be very happy to give this position to him, and then retire and return home to enjoy the joy of family."

Yu Cong's head was shaking like a rattle: "Brother Qiu, your idea is wrong. If you lose your ambition, how can you discover new things? You have to hold this idea. I dare to keep you from the moment when inspiration suddenly appears. Besides, after the younger generation, it is not easy to see that people with more experience than us, right?"

"That's not sure, there are quite a lot of talents in the Tiangong Bureau. Especially the group of people brought by Lord Xu, I'm not surprised when a monster will come out. But Brother Yu, you are right. We are old, but thanks to Your Majesty's grace, from a craftsman to an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, even if we work to death, we are willing to die of exhaustion. Come on, let's have a few drinks. I have brought our Taiping County specialty products and sorghum wine that has been buried in the field for several years."

"When it comes to foodies, your Taiping County is really not as good as our Changyang County. If you prepare wine, I will let someone take the good things for the wine." Yu Cong also laughed.

"That's great. You Changyang County maritime merchants have all kinds of novel objects everywhere, just try it out!" Autumn and winter wilderness was very happy.

A day later, accompanied by the long horns, the track car slowly stopped in the huge rail station in Yuejing City. Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye had just walked out of the carriage and saw several officials in black uniforms coming towards them. The leader made the two even more shocked. It was Tian Zhen.

The boss of the Ministry of State Security is naturally Tian Kang, the commander of the Eagle Nest. Tian Zhen used to be Tian Kang's deputy. After the Eagle Nest became the Ministry of State Security, Tian Zhen was still Tian Kang's deputy, but this person's qualifications are older than Tian Kang, and he is the old team of His Majesty when he made his fortune in Shayang.

This man was under Tian Kang, not because he was not capable, but because he was dragged down by his family background.

"Two old men, I have worked hard all the way." Tian Zhen bowed with a smile. "The car to welcome you is ready. Please forgive me. I just arrived in the capital and I am about to start working."

"How dare Tian Shilang come here in person?" Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye were both flattered and bowed their hands to express their gratitude. "We have special carriages. As we come over, we have a little sleeping soft. Lao Qiu and I are both cheap bones. If we don't work for a day, we will feel idle. If we have something to do, it's just right for us. Lao Qiu, right?"

Qiudongye nodded repeatedly: "It's exactly."

Tian Zhen laughed: "It would be great if you don't blame me, sir. Please follow me. Of course, someone will arrange them for your guards and followers. Please."

The two officials were greeted by a huge four-wheeled carriage, and the three of them sat inside, which still looked extremely spacious. After the carriage left the station, it did not walk into the city, but instead galloped outward. After half an hour, it left the capital.

Seeing that the outside became increasingly remote and gradually disappeared, Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye both showed a look of surprise and suspicion. But as Tian Zhen sat cross-legged, closed her eyes and said nothing, they could only shut up.

The carriage drove along a concrete road that could only accommodate a cart, and actually drove into a mountain range outside the capital. Along the way, I gradually saw barracks and checkpoints. This carriage with the special markings of the Ministry of State Security was also strictly inspected and meticulously when passing these checkpoints.

"Mr. Tian, ​​where are we going?" Yu Cong finally couldn't help it and asked.

Tian Zhen smiled, "You two are so calm. I was thinking just now, will you think that I, Tian, ​​are going to attack you, so you have brought you into this remote place?"

Yu Cong and Qiu Dongye looked at each other and laughed. To be honest, even if the people in front of them were one of the people who were specializing in dirty work in the Ming Dynasty, they didn't think about it at all. Perhaps this is because they have no bottom-mindedness in their hearts, they don't do bad things, and they don't worry about ghosts knocking on the door.

"To be honest, what you are going to see next will be the core secret of the Ming Dynasty. I heard that your research is now hard to go, so this thing may open up new ideas for you. Lord Xu is also waiting for you."

"What is it? Can Mr. Tian explain in detail?"

"I've seen that thing." Tian Zhen smiled and said, "Although I don't understand that thing, it doesn't prevent me from being shocked by his great ability. Two, let me tell you a comment on this matter."

Yu Cong and Qiu Keye bowed at the same time and said, "I hope to hear the details."
