Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Waking up in the morning, Chen Yang bid farewell to Zhang Chunhua and the others, took Huang Yueying with him, and appeared in the west of Chang'an.

There is a factory here. After Chen Yang came here, he built it as quickly as possible. The purpose is to produce weapons. If there are no weapons in the war, it is to let the soldiers die.

Both Sima Yi and Cao Cao have cannons. The irony is that those cannons were made by Chen Yang. If he can't continue to produce cannons and other things, he will become very passive.

When confronting Ding Sui before, Chen Yang lacked these weapons. In the end, he was suppressed and had to return to Chang'an.

"Lord!"

Ma Jun is still the person in charge of the factory, and has followed him from Xudu to Chang'an, and has never lost track of him.

No matter where Chen Yang went, he would take Ma Jun with him. The number one inventor of the Three Kingdoms was still very important to him.

"How is it?"

Chen Yang walked in and asked.

"The factory has been initially built. According to our scale in Lujiang, the recruited workers are also ready, and production can start at any time."

Ma Jun nodded and said: "We can build another factory here, which is bigger than the factory in Lujiang. The subordinates will definitely not disappoint the lord."

Chen Yang said appreciatively: "That's right, but on my side, there is another weapon, Yueying, what I gave you last night, did you bring it?"

Huang Yueying's ability to invent these aspects is not much worse than Ma Jun's. She also participated in the improvement of artillery.

According to the rumors of later generations, things like Zhuge Liannu were not invented by Zhuge Liang, but belonged to Huang Yueying, but they were named by Zhuge Liang himself.

"At this!"

Huang Yueying took out a blueprint and handed it to Ma Jun.

"Hand Ray?"

After Ma Jun looked at it, he asked in surprise.

Chen Yang wants to get a new weapon this time, that is the hand mine. Compared with the previous mine, the lethality will be greater. It can be detonated as long as the fuse is pulled, and no open flame is needed. This is just the simplest hand. thunder.

Chen Yang couldn't figure out what to do with the more complicated and more lethal ones in later generations, so he could only make something simple first to give them a try.

"Make this as soon as possible."

Chen Yang exhorted: "If you are free, Yueying can also help a group of Ma Jun and give some suggestions. Besides, I want our bows and crossbows to be improved and strengthened. If it can be done, it will be natural Best, it doesn’t matter if there’s really no way to improve it.”

Huang Yueying nodded briskly and said, "Husband, don't worry, leave the factory to me. I probably have an idea for your new firearm."

Chen Yang said: "So fast? But also pay attention to safety, firearms are very dangerous, and don't tire yourself out."

Hearing his words of concern, Huang Yueying was greatly benefited. If Ma Jun and the others were not watching, she might have hugged Chen Yang directly to express her happiness.

"The paper mill and printing factory are almost ready, right?"

After explaining about the weapons, Chen Yang continued to walk into the factory.

"It's not finished yet, but according to the current progress, paper can be made tomorrow, and it can be printed in about three days."

Ma Jun explained: "It takes time to make typefaces."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "After it's finished, print the books immediately. Print all the Four Books and Five Classics. The more the better, first spread it throughout Guanzhong."

He did this to lay the foundation for himself in the future, starting with the cultural aspects of reading and literacy, so as to facilitate his later rule.

Although Ma Jun had doubts about why he had to print a large number of books, he didn't dare to ask too much, just follow the instructions.

After wandering around the factory, Chen Yang took Huang Yueying back to Chang'an. As soon as he arrived in the palace, he heard someone calling that Cai Yan was coming to find him.

After Cai Yan was picked up by Chen Yang from the Xiongnu, she stayed in Chang'an and did not leave. She is also missed here, but today she came to look for her.

After a while, Cai Yan appeared in front of Chen Yang.

I haven't seen him for several years. Cai Yan is getting older and older, and her figure is a little worse than before. Wrinkles began to appear on her face, and the years make people old.

"Cai Yan has met the lord!"

She bowed and said softly.

"Miss Cai is looking for me, what's the matter?"

Chen Yang asked curiously.

"Cai Yan heard that the lord is looking for talented celebrities, and I happen to know someone, so I want to recommend it to the lord, but this person is still young, so I don't know if the lord is willing to meet him."

Cai Yan said softly.

It turned out that she was here to recommend it.

"Is he also in Chang'an?"

"Yes, I asked him to wait outside the imperial city."

"Let him come in and take a look."

Chen Yang did not refuse.

Although their Cai family has not fallen to this level, but with Cai Yong's background, even if Cai Yan knows some talented celebrities, he is no exception.

After a while, a man in his early 20s was brought into Weiyang Palace.

"Yanghu, Uncle Biaozi, I have met the lord!"

The man bowed and bowed.

Yang Hu, he turned out to be Yang Hu?

Of course, Chen Yang knew about the Taishan Yang family.

As for Yang Hu, he was the founding hero of the Western Jin Dynasty in later generations, and he made a plan to destroy the Eastern Wu. He was indeed a great talent.

"My lord, my uncle is Cai Yan's nephew. I happened to come to Chang'an some time ago and found out that I have extraordinary talents. When my lord should be a servant, I wanted to recommend him to my lord."

Cai Yan explained: "If the lord thinks it can be used, my uncle will definitely do his best to help the lord."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "Thank you, Ms. Cai, for recommending a talented person. Uncle Yang, you stay by my side first, and I will arrange for you to familiarize yourself with Jiang Boyue first, okay?"

That is to say, Chen Yang is willing to accept him.

Yang Hu hurriedly said: "Thank you, my lord!"

Then Chen Yang called Jiang Wei over and asked him to take Yang Hu away.

"Miss Cai, what else do you seem to be doing?"

Chen Yang saw her hesitate to speak.

"There is indeed one more thing, because my children, the things that happened back then, the children don't remember much and don't understand so much. I have never told them about the prince."

Cai Yan said softly: "Now my eldest son is 14 years old. He said that he wants to join the army and fight. I can't persuade him. I want to ask my lord. If... If it's really not suitable, forget it."

After all, Chen Yang is still her child's father-killing enemy, so it's inappropriate to take it seriously.

Chen Yang didn't agree or refuse, but after thinking for a while, he called Ya Ruo over.

"Sister-in-law, long time no see!"

"Princess Yaruo!"

They knew each other well. It was at King Zuo Xian's place that Chen Yang met Ya Ruo for the first time, and also found Cai Yan.

Chen Yang briefly explained Cai Yan's request.

Ya Ruo understood her husband's concerns, hesitated for a moment, and said: "How about letting him train in our army for a period of time, sister-in-law thinks it's good?"

"Trouble my lord and Princess Yaruo."

Cai Yan nodded gratefully: "I wanted him to be an ordinary person, but the child is naughty, alas!"
