Fusu couldn't understand what Ran Fang meant. Why was he so naive?
I want to defend myself a few words, but I don’t know how to defend myself.
It took a long time to hold back a question.
"Sir...what do you mean by this?"
Ran Fang smiled and said lightly: "As a human being, you should not sit in a well and look at the sky. How vast is the world? How can it be encompassed by just one Great Qin?"
"You know, there are Baiyue in the south of Great Qin, Xiongnu and Donghu in the north, Yuezhi and Qiang in the west, and Woju in the east. The territories of these places are also very vast."
"And there are many treasures in these places, which even Da Qin has probably never heard of."
"Even further west there are the Kingdom of Macedonia, the Roman Republic, the Seleucid Empire and the Parthian Empire. Their strength cannot be underestimated. They are even as strong as the Great Qin."
"The people of Daqin have never heard of these places, so you want to say that the whole world belongs to Daqin? It's too early to say it."
"When in the future, your Majesty really leads the troops to conquer these areas, then the world of Qin will be under his control."
Fusu was stunned when he heard Ran Fang say so many place names that he had never heard of before!
He watched Ran Fang's mouth open and close, and he didn't know whether to believe it or not?
But looking at Ran Fang's words, he had to believe it.
"Is the world really so vast?"
Ran Fang ignored him, picked up the box sent by the Mo family on the table, and looked at it carefully.
He didn't know much about the Mohist family, but he also knew that the most glorious period of the Mohist family should have been during the Warring States Period.
But the Mohists at that time mainly studied this society, and only later turned their attention to craftsmen.
The most important thing is that the Mohists were also the first people in China to study geometry and optics.
It can be regarded as leaving a mark of its own in history.
However, now that the Mo family is suddenly looking for him in such a high-profile manner, it is a bit strange no matter how you look at it.
He didn't take these conspiracies to heart, but he became somewhat interested in the box.
Picking up the box and looking around, he didn't see anything special about the box. It was just a small wooden box with a rigorous structure.
Thinking of the method he had learned to solve the Nine Links, Ran Fang had an impulse to throw the box on the ground, step on it a few times and it would probably open.
He raised the box high and was about to throw it to the ground when he suddenly felt that there must be something inside the wooden box. What if he crushed the contents inside?
As a result, his violent solution to the problem would not work.
When Fusu saw Ran Fang's movements, he raised his head in confusion and his consciousness returned a lot.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Ran Fang put the box on the table and shrugged indifferently.
"It's okay. I originally wanted to open this box directly, but now I have a new idea."
Looking at this square shape with no gaps, Fusu was a little confused.
But he didn't expect that Ran Fang would have a way to open the box so quickly, and there was a strong sense of reverence in his eyes.
"How to untie it?"
I originally thought that Ran Fang had a solution, but he saw Ran Fang shaking his head and sighing.
"I don't know either. Let's take a look first."
He picked up the box and turned it around. It looked like a mortise and tenon structure, and these parts were locked together from the inside. If you want to open it, you have to open it from the inside, right?
Every side looked exactly the same, and Ran Fang didn't know which side was facing up, so he shook it randomly a few times.
I heard a "click" inside, as if there was something moving.
He still had some doubts in his heart, is this Mo family's stuff so simple?
Fusu also heard the sound and immediately leaned over, staring closely at the wooden box, waiting to see what was inside.
Under the gaze of the two people, the wooden box slowly opened.
As a result, there was a very delicate wooden cart inside, which didn't look like anything special.
After the box was opened, the small wooden car moved forward on its own and slowly slid towards them.
"This is……"
"Line ballista?!"
After seeing the thing in front of him clearly, Fusu also shouted in surprise and directly called out the name of the thing.
He looked at Ran Fang in surprise and picked up the thing. "Such a sophisticated mechanism, this is really incredible."
"This ballista can only be seen during wars. It takes ten people to push it. I didn't expect the Mo family to be able to do it so perfectly."
"Sir, what does the Mo family mean?"
This kind of thing was common in later generations, but now that he could see such exquisite gadgets, Ran Fang was indeed impressed by the Mo family's skills.
But the Mo family gave him this thing, which really made him a little confused.
He took the wooden cart from Fusu and looked at it carefully. He saw two words written somewhere: "Press."
If he didn't hold it so close, he wouldn't be able to understand these two words, but suddenly he understood why the Mo family sent this box.
Looking at the structure of the crossbow cart, Ran Fang sneered, took the crossbow cart a little further, and gently pressed the stick on it.
With a few "swish-swish-" sounds, several small arrows the size of toothpicks were suddenly shot out from the serial ballista, and they were shot straight in the direction of Ran Fang.
Fortunately, he was on guard, and all the small arrows hit the cabinet nearby.
Fusu, who was unprepared, was startled by this sudden turn of events. He pointed at the crossbow car and then at the arrows, without taking away the frightened expression on his face at all.
"This...this...what's going on?"
"Sir, this is the Mo family trying to assassinate you!"
"The Mo family is too arrogant!"
Ran Fang was not as shocked as him. He just stood up and pulled out the arrow stuck in the cabinet, put it under his nose, smelled it, and said lightly: "Poisonous."
Fusu couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and looked at Ran Fang worriedly: "What?!"
"This is going to kill you and me!"
"This Mo family is so bold, and they commit murder blatantly!"
Compared with his excitement, Ran Fang's performance seemed much calmer.
He put the arrows on the table, picked up the crossbow cart, and felt relieved after making sure there were no arrows inside.
He didn't plan to press it just now, but he was worried that Fusu would be careless one day and something would happen if he pressed it.
He raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said, "This is not the work of the Mo family."
"Although the Mohists are good at mechanism skills, poisoning the utensils is not the Mohist style. This should be someone who wants to deliberately frame the Mohists."
"I just don't know, whose way am I blocking now? Are you going to kill me in this way?"
"I am just in prison, what threat can I bring to them?"
When he said this, Ran Fang looked at Fusu, wanting to hear an answer from his mouth.
It's a pity that he was disappointed. Fusu's expression froze, he just lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing him like this, Ran Fang didn't ask further questions.
"Maybe it's a matter of the Gu family. After all, the salt merchant is rich, and there's nothing that money can't solve."
"It seems like someone from the Gu family is going to come over."
