Chapter 57
In March, Luoyang is chilly in spring.
There was a chill that could not be dispelled inside and outside the city. In addition to the influence of the weather, there was also an increasingly fierce conflict between the Ten Generals and General He Jin.
It made people panic.
Just after the Spring Festival, General He Jin moved Empress Dowager Dong to Hejian on the grounds that "Empress Dowager Dong was originally a vassal concubine and should not be staying in the palace for a long time"; while sending imperial guards to surround General Dong Chong's mansion.
Dong Chong committed suicide in the back hall.
In February, He Jin secretly sent someone to poison Empress Dowager Dong in Hejian Post House.
Without Empress Dowager Dong as his backer, the Ten Eunuchs wanted to get rid of General He Jin in order to control the Young Emperor of Han and Empress He and preserve their glory and wealth.
Similarly, in order to completely kill the eunuchs, He Jin, with Yuan Shao's ulterior motives, summoned heroes from all over the world to lead troops to the capital, and all eunuchs were killed.
Since then, the prelude to the rise of the princes was opened.
…………
Luoyang, Chunxiang Restaurant.
As the governor of Liaodong, Qin Mo invited Du Ming, the general of the Shaofu to serve as the master craftsman.
The Shaofu is similar to the later Ministry of Works, and will serve as a master craftsman in civil engineering construction for palaces, ancestral temples, tombs, etc., and will provide for tens of thousands of skilled craftsmen.
If the Hei Shui tribe wants to grow and grow, the first thing is to say goodbye to the backward fishing and hunting life and turn to agricultural civilization; and to develop farming, the first thing is to create a safe residence.
That is, building a city.
In addition to building a city, in addition to building materials such as wood, stone, bricks and tiles, there are also a group of skilled craftsmen.
The responsibility of the Shaofu is to build a city and palace. It is no exaggeration to say that all the craftsmen needed by the Black Water Tribe can be found in the Shaofu, and they are all elites among the elites.
It depends on how Qin Mo works.
"How many craftsmen are needed by Lord Qin, just speak." Du Ming thought Qin Mo wanted to transform his house in Luoyang.
At the moment, Du Ming is in chaos. As a general, he is a master craftsman, with a rank of 2,000 stones, and his status is second only to that of the nine ministers and the same as the governor of the state, but he is also worried all day long.
If you can show good deeds to Qin Mo, a territorial official who holds military power, you will naturally try your best to show good deeds.
"I want two thousand people." Qin Mo's lion spoke up.
He didn't say that these people would never come back after they were taken away, otherwise Du Ming would not even have a talk. Anyway, the Dong Zhuo rebellion was about to break out, and then it would be a mess.
Who has time to keep in mind this?
Du Ming's face was stunned and he was a little unhappy, "Are Master Qin joking?"
"Master Du might as well see my sincerity first." Qin Mo said as he took out three items, a storage bag, a hand-written version of "Taiping Qing Lingdao", and a bottle of blood-burning pill.
When he reported his work in the past 2009, Qin Mo had already paid the blood explosion pill promised to Zhang Rang in one lump sum, which was a conclusion of the cause and effect between the two.
He can't do anything to put down the wrongdoing and betrayal.
The bottle of blood-burning pill is left now, and there is no place to be available, so I might as well trade it.
"What are these?" Du Ming, a mortal, didn't know the goods.
Qin Mo introduced: "This is called a storage bag, which creates its own space inside and can store and access items at will."
"Is it the dimensional space you Yiren talk about?" Du Ming said in surprise.
"Not bad!" Qin Mo nodded, "The most important thing is that this storage bag can be used by adults." The storage bag is only related to a ray of thought, and it is not difficult to do with the help of Qin Mo.
"Take it serious?" Du Ming's eyes shone brightly.
If it is really so magical, he can store gold, silver and soft materials in just in case. If you think a little further, even the official things can be taken away openly.
Not just a baby.
"Sir, close your eyes." Qin Mo didn't bother with it, and he saw that it was true.
Du Ming endured his excitement and did as he did.
Qin Mo pointed with one hand, and his spiritual sense locked Du Ming's soul, used the secret method, and took out a thread of Du Ming's thoughts, then tied them to the storage bag. The task was done, "It's OK."
"This...this is done?" Du Ming was completely unbelievable.
"Sir, you can try it." Qin Mo said with a smile.
Du Ming was skeptical and tried to put the blood explosion pill into the storage bag. Sure enough, he disappeared. With a thought, he appeared on the table again.
He had to try again, but was stopped by Qin Mo and said, "I have not practiced the great way of the soul and the soul is fragile. It is not suitable to use it frequently. It is best not to use it more than three times a day."
"No wonder I feel a little dizzy." Du Ming was still excited.
Qin Mo said again: "This book "Taipingqing Lingdao" is a Taoist practiced by Ji Xianren. Although the adults do not have the qualifications to practice, they can be passed down to future generations and will have a day of family rejuvenation."
"Taiping Road?" Du Ming's expression changed drastically. When he thought of Qin Mo's previous identity, he became even more shady and almost got up and left.
Qin Mo was stunned and then smiled bitterly, but he forgot about this. He would have copied the "Dunjia Tianshu" if he had known it.
"Sir, I misunderstood." Qin Mo had to explain patiently, "This Taoist technique has nothing to do with the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao, but both of them are just Nanhua immortals."
"What's more, the Yellow Turban has become a cloud of mist, so lord doesn't want to make a big splash. Do you have any concerns?" Qin Mo said.
"so……"
Du Ming's expression was a little slow, but he was too sensitive.
There are rumors in the court that the "Taiping Yaoshu" practiced by the bandit Zhang Jiao was obtained by Huangfu Song and presented to His Majesty. In the end, wasn't there anything wrong with him?
Thinking of this, I felt excited.
Qin Mo finally picked up the pill and said, "One day, when you are old and weak and have poor energy, you can take this pill, which will have miraculous effects."
Du Ming was well-informed and whispered: "This pill is the magic pill that the adults gave to Zhang Rang that can rejuvenate their children?"
"That's right." Qin Mo nodded, "Is my sincerity sufficient?"
Du Ming's face was unstable, and he mobilized two thousand craftsmen at once. Even if he was a general to be a master, he would take risks and might have to deal with some things.
But Qin Mo showed his sincerity...
After a long time, Du Ming gritted his teeth, picked up the storage bag, put the Taoist technique and the pill in, carefully put it into his arms, and clasped his fists and said, "Since Lord Qin spoke, I will take a risk."
Qin Mo sneered.
He was not a fool. He had investigated in advance that those craftsmen under the name of Shaofu were all craftsmen for generations, which were so-called craftsmen, with a low status and were not allowed to be dispatched by Du Ming.
Also, the situation is in chaos, just in time to catch fish in the troubled waters.
It was precisely because of this matter that Qin Mo spent a lot of money to take Du Ming: "I wonder if it is convenient for me to purchase these materials on my behalf? I want to transport them away together." He said that, and handed over a list of materials.
In addition to conventional flour, rice and other food, there are also military supplies such as tents, bows and crossbows.
"I will pay the money at the price." Qin Mo added.
When Du Ming heard Qin Mo pay, he glanced casually and said domineeringly: "No problem, I'll cover it with me." The Shaofu also manages money and materials, and this thing is nothing.
But letting Qin Mo buy it is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
You can't go back to Liaodong to raise supplies, and you can take any effort to transport them to Luoyang?
"Then I'll be fine." Qin Mo clasped his fists.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." After this contact, Du Ming became more and more afraid to underestimate Qin Mo.
This person is so mysterious.
"Ten days, is it enough?" According to the historical process, He Jin was about to be caught by the Ten Changshi. Qin Mo was worried about chaos in Luoyang, so the faster the better.
"Mr. Qin is in a hurry?" Du Ming frowned.
"Yes." Qin Mo's attitude was very firm, and Du Ming had to receive this signal.
"That's true, ten days will be ten days." Du Ming gritted his teeth and responded.
After the negotiations were made, the two began to drink and drank until late at night before leaving.
Before leaving, Qin Mo said lightly: "Sir, please remind me that I can take back what I gave you. Please do not break your promise." As he said that, he stretched out his palm and a ball of beating flame appeared.
Qin Mo had personally experienced the virtues of the bureaucrats of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was necessary to warn them.
Du Ming's face twitched, clasped his fists, and said solemnly: "I will never go back on my word."
He also needs to have that courage...
