Daqin Engineers

Chapter 74: This is just a polite remark...

But when he saw that he smiled, he raised his head and poured the last bit of noodles into his mouth, chewing and answering:

"What am I deceiving you?"

"What else can I get?"

Before the words were finished, a hairpin squeezed in with a small half bag of rice, and said with a greedy expression:

"Brother, it's only half a bowl per person, how can you enjoy it?"

"I'll be doing more sacred rituals this time."

Everyone agreed:

"Exactly."

"Tell that group of leaders to take out all the rations I'm waiting for and make this noodle!"

"But it's a good idea. I'm afraid I won't tire of eating this noodle for a lifetime."

...

Then the hairpin raised his head to Ying Zheng:

"If you don't believe it."

"I left to see with my own eyes how the noodles are made."

Zhao Gao saw that this soldier was so rude, he was about to speak out but was stopped by Ying Zheng's eyes.

I don't know whether it is curiosity or a whim, but at this time Ying Zheng wants to just hang out with these soldiers.

So he didn't show his identity, just watched with interest.

Waiting for the white flour to seep out from the side by pushing the stone mill, Ying Zheng couldn't help but let out a "Huh".

"What is this?"

"Can you grind the rice into powder?"

"And so easy!"

Hairpin triumphantly explained:

"This is because you have less knowledge."

"This is the stone mill made by my brother."

"There is no one before, there is no one here...the only one in the world."

At the beginning of Yingzheng, he was quite disapproving.

Because he did not believe that these soldiers could make such a clever vessel.

Only Tao is where they learned it but they are talking nonsense here.

But then I thought about Ying Zheng and secretly wondered:

If that is the case, why have you never seen this...thing called a stone mill before?

I have never seen a stone mill.

This noodle is so delicious and can be made with only rice, how can he know that as the king of a country?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but believe it.

So I looked more at that but not more.

Just as Ying Zheng was hesitating, he saw Shangzao and said casually while collecting the flour:

"What's this?"

"The trebuchet improved by the master is called the one that has never been seen before."

"If it weren't for this trebuchet, how could our army conquer the Great Wall of Zhangfu?"

"You have to know that I have been waiting to attack the Great Wall for several months, and more than 100,000 people have nothing to do with it."

"The master trebuchet came out, but it broke Zhao Jun in a mere few days!"

Ying Zheng couldn't help being surprised:

"You mean... you wait to improve the catapult..."

"Break the Great Wall?"

Shangzao looked at Ying Zheng with an incredible expression, saying:

"This is because you have less knowledge."

"It's more than just breaking the Great Wall. I'll use this trebuchet to burn Wo Niu Mountain and break Zhao Jun."

"Use this trebuchet to break Handan."

"Without this trebuchet, I don't know how long and how long can I stand here."

Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao couldn't help but stare at each other.

These are things they don't know.

This is not intentional concealment by Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe and others.

Rather, those who reported to Xianyang were all the results of the battle, such as where our army attacked and where our army was blocked.

As for the details, it is natural to wait until after the war to report in detail.

Ying Zheng's shock was that he couldn't imagine that this unbelievable soldier in front of him could achieve such an amazing achievement.

Perhaps it was because of the strange gazes of Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao, he waved his hand and replied casually:

"Hi, it's just a small matter."

"Don't listen to my disciple's nonsense."

"If it weren't for my Wang Lijing to be the ruler and personally train the officials, how can I wait for the achievements today?"

"If the general is not for the strategy and command, how can I be so powerful?"

"The improved trebuchet is just the icing on the cake, not enough, not enough!"

What Shen Bing said was just polite remarks.

In modern times, this kind of rhetoric does not come just by just opening your mouth.

For example, being praised in the company, immediately reply:

"Dare not, if there is no leadership cultivation, how can I have today?"

Shen Bing didn't say this much in modern times, and even said it numb...

So the habit became natural, and Shen Bing at this time naturally wanted to praise the leader.

Who is this leader?

Of course it is the king and the general!

And of course the king must be put first.

Of course, Shen Bing did not expect that his photographer was unintentional, but the listener was joyful.

Ying Zheng took this statement seriously...

Of course, Ying Zheng has no shortage of praise.

In fact, all kinds of praise have never stopped in his ears every day.

However, Ying Zheng knew that it was only flattery, so he had little interest.

This time it was different. I didn't know my identity but had such a high evaluation of myself. It must be sincere.

Responsible for governance, practice the group officials!

Well said!

Isn't this what the widows do in the court every day?

Suddenly, Ying Zheng was praised that it was a burst of splendor, and the frown unconsciously stretched out.

Talent, talent!

Not only is resourceful and resourceful, he has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements.

What is even more rare is that after doing meritorious service, you should not be arrogant, arrogant, or arrogant (gǔ), and be willing to go with you.(Note 1)

How can I not be strong if Daqin has such talents?

The most important thing is that this person is still loyal to the king, and he is hardworking.

Rare!rare!

Ying Zheng nodded his head repeatedly as he watched the person underneath, feeling very satisfied.

He didn't think that this was still flattery, and it was flattery in the idiom.

Shen Bing’s attention was not at the merchant’s place from beginning to end. He fiddled with the noodles in the water with his chopsticks from time to time, and almost screamed when he looked at it:

"Get the pot!"

"Get a bowl if you want to eat."

"First come first served."

...

Everyone rushed forward and handed the wooden bowl up.

What Zhao Gao could not believe was that Ying Zheng also squeezed into the crowd with a wooden bowl...

Zhao Gao wiped his eyes, secretly saying that I am dazzled, am I?

Is that the king Yingzheng?

Holding a wooden bowl...

Before he finished sighing, Ying Zheng turned around angrily and shouted at him:

"What are you still doing?"

"Bring more bowls!"

After Zhao Gao "Oh, uh, uh...", it took a long time to realize that he picked up a wooden bowl and handed it up.

For a while, the house was heated and chaotic, and it was as lively as a battlefield.

"Chuck" with a sound.

Ying Zheng sucked the last piece of noodles, then rubbed his stomach and said contentedly:

"The color, fragrance and taste."

"Widow...I haven't eaten so full for a long time."

"This stone mill..."

Speaking of Ying Zheng, his eyes turned to the stone mill.

Then I laughed more:

"sure!"

"Knowing that where there is stone grinding, there will be noodles."

"clever!"

"As soon as you and I see it, this stone mill will be given to you!"

"I will make another one later."

Yingzheng was overjoyed, and only said "Thank you", and immediately ordered someone to carry the stone away.

Then he arched his hands and said goodbye to Shen Bing and his group, as if he was afraid that Shen Bing would go back.
