Chapter 360 There are no windows! (4000)(2/2)



In the living room.

"Wu Youcai, I heard that you came back empty-handed from your trip to Jingzhou?"

When Wu Liang came in and stood up, Boss Cao had a dark face for some reason and immediately asked straight to the point, with a hint of accountability in his words.

Wu Liang didn't know why Boss Cao suddenly acted like this, so he could only laugh and said: "Reporting to Ming Gong, my subordinates did not find any gold or jewelry during this trip, but it was not nothing. It was just that it was inconvenient to show it to outsiders before, so I didn't show it to the envoys."

You mentioned it."

"Oh? What exactly did you gain?"

Boss Cao was slightly stunned. This guy didn't play according to the routine, so the rhetoric he had prepared was naturally useless.

"Please Ming Gong, please send someone out and bring in the few soldiers of the Hu army who are waiting outside the gate of the county government, so that you can see them at a glance."

Wu Liang said with a low eyebrow.

Just now he was sleeping in the woodshed having a sweet dream, but Chen Jinshui and others had been waiting outside for several hours, which was really difficult for them.

"Go bring them in personally!"

Boss Cao immediately became serious again, and while giving orders, he glared at Wu Liang and said, "If what you bring back can satisfy me, I won't care about you. If what you bring back disappoints me, I will definitely do it."

You look good!”

"?"

After hearing this, Wu Liang glanced at Xi Zhicai subconsciously.

Something is obviously wrong with Boss Cao now.

It stands to reason that he had just extorted more food and salary from the Chenliu clan and acquired Cao's Salt Company. He should be in the best mood. Why is it that every word he speaks now feels like he has been shot?

and.

Today he has obviously made a great contribution. Whether it is Cao's salt business or the beginning and end of the "farming system", he has communicated with Xi Zhicai. Even if Boss Cao didn't know about it before, he should have learned about it now.

So Wu Liang didn't quite understand.

What on earth is Boss Cao arguing with him about, and why does he still want him to look good? I always feel that what Boss Cao is saying now is not the same thing as what he is thinking.

"..."

Xi Zhicai shrugged helplessly.

Wu Liang was also convinced.

The problem is that he can't directly raise questions to Boss Cao now, otherwise it will become an argument and question. No matter what the reason for Boss Cao's behavior is, it will only add fuel to the fire.

Fortunately, Wu Liang knew that what he brought out next would be almost impossible to disappoint Boss Cao.

As a result, my mind quickly settled down.

After a moment like this.

Chen Jinshui, whose face was reddened by the sun, finally "drove" the restored "Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse" into the living room.

And I saw the process of these two strange-looking cars entering the living room.

Boss Cao and Xi Zhicai stood up with surprised faces.

"Wu Youcai, this... what is this?"

Boss Cao asked intently.

He could see very clearly just now that there was a five-story stone staircase built at the entrance of the county residence's living room, and there was also a bluestone threshold about a foot high on the main entrance.

If an ordinary carriage does not need someone to lift it, it is impossible to drive in, but these two strange-shaped carriages can walk on flat ground, and there is only one soldier pulling two ropes from behind to control it, and they can drive it without even taking a breath.

The two cars "rushed" in.

"This is a 'wooden ox and flowing horse'. To put it bluntly, it is a grain truck. It can carry one year's worth of grain. Of course, it can also be used to transport other baggage."

Wu Liang walked forward with a smile and opened the cover on the back of the "Wooden Ox".

Only then did Boss Cao and Xi Zhi discover that the cart was not empty, but already filled with a cart full of corn?!

"?!"

Seeing this scene, Boss Cao and Xi Zhicai's eyes widened.

Loading one-year-old grain...

No need for animal power?

One soldier can drive them away effortlessly?

This is something that Boss Cao and Xi Zhicai never dared to think about before seeing "Wooden Cow and Flowing Horse" again.

"How many miles can this 'wooden ox and stray horse' travel in a day?"

Xi Zhicai was a strategist after all. At this time, his mind was still very clear, so he opened his mouth and asked another very important question.

"It's no big deal to travel thirty miles a day."

Wu Liang gave the most conservative figure.

"Gulu!"

Xi Zhicai swallowed unconsciously, and an indescribable surprise soon appeared in his eyes. He immediately raised his hands and bowed to Boss Cao, "Congratulations to the envoy, congratulations to the envoy, Wu Youcai is really one of your blessed generals, and you have

With magical objects such as 'Wooden Ox and Flowable Horse', our army will no longer have to worry about transporting food and wages, the number of food troops can be reduced by at least 70%, and horses and livestock can be freed to be used in more important places!"

"Hahaha……"

Boss Cao finally couldn't hold back any longer and accidentally laughed out loud, but when he saw Wu Liang's handsome face, he immediately coughed twice, his expression changed and he said coldly, "Although this 'wooden cow and flowing horse' is indeed good

, but it is still not to the level that satisfies me. At most, it can only be regarded as not disappointing, so I can just say that you have made the most of it..."

The words have not yet fallen.

"Your Majesty, please take a look again!"

Wu Liang immediately opened the linen cloth that Yin Jian held in his hands, pointed to a small model covered under the linen cloth and said, "This is the 'Three Bow Crossbow', but at the moment I am just making a small model.

, this object can be magnified dozens of times. It uses tree trunks as arrow shafts and iron tools as arrow feathers and arrowheads. It is strong enough to be nailed directly into the city wall. Whether it is to capture the city or defend the city, it is a rare enemy.
