"This..." Sha Chongyi was just ordered to come out and bite people. How could he prepare so much? Zhang Jiuling caught his foot hurting, and he immediately became in chaos.

However, he was a censor for many years and had rich experience in talking. He quickly calmed down again and frowned decisively, "Yes, Sha has never seen a picture scroll or tried samples, but Sha can understand it from the expense of military weapons to refine gunpowder."

In order to prove his point of view, he turned his attention to Zhang Qian, "Zhang Zhe, can you have the courage to tell your colleagues present how much does it cost to build a medicine pot just?"

The four pharmacy pots and their accessories are all made of pure copper. Many people have visited them, and they know that their cost is not too low without asking. Therefore, Sha Chongyi had already regarded it as a handle and kept it in his heart. He originally planned to throw it out at a critical moment and catch Zhang Qian off guard. Unexpectedly, today he was forced to lose his position by Zhang Jiuling and had to show his trump card in advance.

Even so, he still believed that as long as Zhang Qian said the cost of the refining pot, many people would give up their sympathy and support for him.

Unexpectedly, after listening to his questioning, Zhang Qian said bluntly: "You are saying you are calling for robbers, but you still refuse to admit it. The four refining pots, plus the iron pots, stoves and other items underneath, cost about 4,000 yuan. However, Zhang thought that such expenses would be worth the money."

"You spent 4,000 pounds just for just four pills. You said it wasn't the trick of the country?" Sha Chongyi immediately felt like he had a treasure and made a big fuss with the number of 4,000 pounds of money. "And how much gunpowder has you refined in this month? It's just ten thousand pounds! Each pound of gunpowder is nearly half a pound. What army can afford to consume this? "

"Ah, so much money?" As expected, before he could finish his words, the surroundings were all stunned.

You know, although 4,000 yuan is not a big deal for Zhongming Dingshi Home. However, these "technical" bureaucrats responsible for specific departments can definitely make them jealous and red in their eyes.

Especially for the Qingshui yamen like the Imperial Heaven and the proofreading proof, the annual expenses of the entire jail are probably not enough for one thousand yuan. Zhang Qian's ordinary firearms office is one level lower than the jail, and he actually spent four years of funds in one month. How could everyone keep a balance in their hearts?

In fact, not only did this group of "technical bureaucrats" responsible for specific affairs be hit by the huge expenses of the Firearms Department. Emperor Yingtian Shenlong Li Xian, who heard that a pound of "gunpowder" was equivalent to 500 copper coins, was so distressed that his heart twitched.

Back then, when he was pushed down from the position of emperor by Wu Zetian. When he was the King of Luling, his family was so poor that he had to rely on the weaving of the princess Wei to get a cold clothes. Although he is the leader of a country and has a great family, he dare not tolerate a certain department so squandering.

The word "squandering" appeared in his heart, and Sha Chongyi's previous sentence "the strategy of exhausting the country" made him more and more alert. Immediately, Li Xian's brows stood up, turning his knife-like gaze to Zhang Qian, waiting to see the latter to give everyone a reasonable explanation!

However, what made him angry was that in the face of Sha Chongyi's accusation, Zhang Qian actually looked indifferent and shrugged lightly: "Is four thousand hangs a lot? After the refining pot is made, it can be used for at least twenty years! Four thousand hangs a year will be equivalent to two hundred hangs a year. Such a simple account, can't even calculate the cost of Sha Jingshi?"

"This..." Li Xian was stunned for a moment, and the anger that had just rushed to the top door suddenly plummeted.

"You are just the expense of making a pill refining pot. The commissions of craftsmen in the future, wine, wood, and daily management, where do you don't need money?" Since Sha Chongyi dared to use the cost of a pill refining pot, he would naturally not be easily refuted. Hearing that Zhang Qian spread the cost of a pill for twenty years, he immediately began to calculate other costs with him.

"Civil Sha can't drink dew by sucking wind and drinking dew? You've heard of this sentence. Since the court wants to use gunpowder, can Zhang turn out to alcohol without any materials without artificial materials? If the chief clerk Sha can demonstrate it on the spot, Zhang will definitely be at a disadvantage!" In terms of sophistry, Zhang Qian believed that he was no match for professional trolls, and he was not afraid of any trolls. In a simple sentence, he blocked Sha Chongyi's accusations.

"Sha is the censor, and supervising all officials is Sha's responsibility." Of course, Sha Chongyi did not know how to make tricks, but he still insisted that Zhang Qian was deliberately wasting his own way. He whispered his neck and added loudly, "And you, as the chief clerk of the Gunpowder Department, do not know how to be frugal. You use Your Majesty's trust in you to squander public funds. Just a mere pharmacy furnace, what can you do? You have to use pure copper? If the five departments of the bureaus are squandering like you, how much storage will I have to support my Tang Dynasty treasury?"

The Gunpowder Bureau is just a sub-department under the Military Arts Supervision. There are probably seventy or eighty sub-departments like this in the Five Supervisors and Nine Temples of the Tang Dynasty. One department costs 4,000 yuan and is not eye-catching. If it is 4,000 yuan and multiplied by 70 or eighty, it will definitely make the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Revenue who is in charge of the imperial court, jump up and fight with others.

The number was thrown out, and immediately made Emperor Li Xian's face cold. Looking at Zhang Qian again, he still looked calm and gentle. He smiled and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Sir Sha knows the Gunpowder Bureau well enough to know where the Gunpowder Bureau is behind our Military Arts Supervision Bureau?"

"Of course it's the north wall of the imperial city!" Sha Chongyi didn't know why Zhang Qian asked this and responded in a low voice with caution.

"Then do you know why the emperor gave alcohol to gunpowder?" Zhang Qian sneered and took over the conversation, continuing to chase him.

"This thing can not only clean the wound, but also extremely flammable!" Sha Chongyi's warning sign became stronger and stronger. He quickly answered, and then turned the defense into an offensive. "Don't talk nonsense and change the topic. Why did gunpowder get its name? What does it have to do with you squandering it at will?"

"Since you know that gunpowder is flammable and explosive, the military weapon surveillance is the wall of the imperial city. Zhang also needs to try his best to save money, what is his intention?" Zhang Qian took the conversation without hesitation and fought back sternly.

He was grabbed by this person, even though he was a clay figure, he had already felt a bit of earthy. What's more, the Ruby Girl's grandfather was present at this moment.

Therefore, even in order to show his abilities to Old Fox Yang, Zhang Qian did not dare to retreat again and again. After dragging Sha Chongyi into the field of physics and chemistry in junior high school where he was relatively good at, he immediately killed him.

"This..." Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian was ambushed with such a move. Sha Chongyi was caught off guard, and immediately, his mind was a little unable to keep up with the rhythm.

Zhang Qian succeeded in one blow and immediately followed his previous habit of practicing free fighting, chasing and fighting relentlessly. "Behind the Military Arts Prison is the Imperial City. There is only a wall between the Imperial City and the Military Arts Prison, and the Sanqing Hall is the Sanqing Hall. Alcohol is an extremely flammable and explosive thing. If you are not careful, it will cause a fire. Zhang thought it would be natural to spend more money to exchange for the safety of the Imperial City and the Sanqing Hall. But you, just thinking about fighting for the name of frugality, put the Sanqing Hall in danger, but don't know what your intention is?!"

The Sanqing Hall is not a bedroom, but it is the one worshipped inside Laozi Li Er. The Tang Dynasty royal family regarded itself as the descendant of Li Er. In order to save money, the ministers put the place where the emperor and ancestors worshipped in danger. That was not only for fame, but also did not take the Tang Dynasty royal family seriously.

Suddenly, nearly two-thirds of the officials in Zichen Hall, from the front to the back, turned their eyes to Sha Chongyi like a fool. In addition to contempt, they also brought some sympathy.

Sha Chongyi was so shocked that he was stunned, but he refused to let go. He was hoarse and opened his teeth and claws, "You are talking sweet words. Sha doesn't believe it. If you don't use pure copper to make a medicine pot, you will definitely catch fire. Apart from using pure copper to make a medicine pot, you can't use anything else to make that gunpowder?!"

"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of it. It's not too much to be careful for the safety of the imperial city." Zhang Qian sneered and shook his head again, "If the chief clerk Sha wants to be cheap, it's very simple. Just a single iron pot, a jar, a lid and a bamboo tube, Zhang can refine alcohol. The problem is, Zhang dares to refine, do you, Censor Sha, dare to let Zhang start work in your house? The soldiers on the front line took the shoddy gunpowder and dared to pour it on the wound? Censor Sha, as a censor, had nothing to do to figure out my pill pot, what is the purpose? Today, Censor Sha insisted on taking out the cheap method of refining alcohol for public purposes on the grounds that the cost is high, and who was instructed? Is he trying to give guidance to craftsmen in which country?!"
