Zhao Xuanyi saw that Zi Yuan was silent for a long time and coughed lightly.
"Sister Ziyuan, let Cheng Ling take you to Piaoyun Pavilion. I have something to do here. I'll come back to you when I'm done!"
"Yes! Then uncle, I will leave first!" In front of others, Zi Yuan's status can be said to be superior to others, but in front of Zhao Xuanyi, Zi Yuan is still the same maid.
"Sister Ziyuan, please come with me!" Cheng Ling led Ziyuan into Piaoyun Pavilion and began to introduce her.
Ziyuan flew to the inside of Piaoyun Pavilion, and her eyes did not inspect every place inside.
"How many courtyards are there in Piaoyun Pavilion?"
"Three, front yard, atrium, and backyard!" Cheng Ling answered immediately.
"How many rooms are there in total?"
"Piaoyun Pavilion has a total of eighty-two rooms, a total of twenty-six side rooms in the front yard, a total of thirty-two rooms in the atrium, and a cross-courtyard with three large rooms in it. There are a total of five cross-courtyards in the backyard and seven main rooms. Room, sixteen side rooms!" Cheng Ling answered fluently and very cheerfully!
"How many servants are there in total?" Zi Yuan continued to ask.
"Besides me, there are five maids and eight servants!" Zi Yuan frowned, very surprised
"Just a few people?"
"Yes, we were bought and sent here. We didn't know how big Piaoyun Pavilion was originally, but we only found out after we came here!" Cheng Ling said.
After hearing this, Zi Yuan nodded lightly and said nothing! Zhao Xuanyi took a look and saw four guards with swords standing outside Piaoyun Pavilion. After walking in, there was a guard every ten steps on the left and right sides of the front yard. The atrium was closer, and there was a guard every five steps. And in the front yard and the atrium are constantly patrolled by guards.
"The defense and patrol here are organized in the same way as the military camp, and we have also designed some flip-flops inside the courtyard walls. If a thief dares to jump over the wall and come in, he will fall directly into the trap!" Tang Tianli said with a smile.
After Zhao Xuanyi read it, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad! You guys have done a good job this time. Brother Shen, please arrange for someone to buy some delicious food tonight to comfort the brothers!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei agreed with a smile. Zhao Xuanyi was walking when suddenly a guard on the side attracted Zhao Xuanyi's attention. Zhao Xuanyi turned around and saw the guard standing there, but his right leg could not help but tremble. It seemed that he had been standing for a long time. It’s almost like I can’t stand still!
Zhao Xuanyi walked towards the guard, and when the guard saw Zhao Xuanyi, his expression was very nervous and he hurriedly stood up, but for some unknown reason, his right leg was still unsteady!
Zhao Xuanyi came closer, lowered his head and took a closer look, and then discovered that there was something wrong with the guard's right leg. Zhao Xuanyi couldn't explain it, but he could tell that there was something wrong with the man's right leg!
When Tang Tianli, Sun Yan and others behind him saw that Zhao Xuanyi had discovered something was wrong, they were all so frightened that they broke into cold sweats. They looked at each other, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Zhao Xuanyi would discover something was wrong!
Zhao Xuanyi squatted down and slowly stretched out his hand to grab the man's right leg.
"Pull your feet out!"
"Sir? I...?" The man was so nervous that he almost fainted, but he didn't dare to speak!
"I said, pull out your feet!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted coldly. The man didn't dare to disobey the order and pulled his foot out of the shoe. When Zhao Xuanyi saw the man's foot, he gasped. Only the man's big toe and two toes were missing, and only the last three toes were missing. It turns out that the reason the man is unable to stand is because he has lost his important big female toe!
Zhao Xuanyi did not reprimand Tang Tianli for bringing such a person in, nor was he angry. He gently put on the man's shoes. The man was so frightened that he hurriedly squatted down and put on his shoes himself.
"Sir, I will do it by myself!" Zhao Xuanyi slowly stood up straight. Looking at the man who was unable to stand still, Zhao Xuanyi's eyes suddenly turned red.
"I'm sorry, I don't know your name!" When the man heard this, he immediately raised his head.
"My name is Chen Guodong! Former soldier of the Left Pioneer Battalion of the Tianshi Legion!"
"Chen Guodong! I remember you. When I was guarding Huangling City, you were there. Your foot was chopped off by an enemy siege!" Zhao Xuanyi said with heartache.
When Chen Guodong heard this, his eyes were instantly filled with tears. He didn't expect that Zhao Xuanyi actually remembered him.
"Yes, I gave the enemy a knife and cut his throat. I am not at a loss!" Zhao Xuanyi wiped the tears from his eyes and turned to look at Tang Tianli.
"Whose idea?" Tang Tianli knew that Zhao Xuanyi was asking about bringing in these wounded soldiers, so Tang Tianli did his part.
"It was my idea!"
"It was all of us' idea!" Wang Yunlong said.
"Yes! We all discussed it together!" Wang Yunchuan said. Zhao Xuanyi sniffed
"At the beginning, we had less than a hundred people guarding the city, and in the end, less than forty survived. How many people are there now?"
"Sir, in addition to the forty seriously injured, there are still twenty-seven people who can go to the battlefield this time. We have transferred them here. They are all here to protect your safety!" Sun Yan said.
Zhao Xuanyi was very moved and nodded.
"Very good! Sun Yan, go give Chen Guodong that chair!"
"Yes!" Sun Yan ran away with a smile!
"Sir...this is me?" Chen Guodong was very moved and didn't know what to say. Zhao Xuanyi patted Chen Guodong on the shoulder
"Brother, it's my fault. I came back to the capital and got married directly. I forgot about you brothers. I have to rely on you to protect my safety in the future. When I'm tired, I can sit down and rest. It's not in the way! Tang Tianli?"
"Here!" Tang Tianli shouted.
"Everyone else has made proper arrangements. If there is any problem, it should be dealt with, and it should be seen by a doctor. If you can take care of someone like Chen Guodong, you must take care of me!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted.
"Yes!" Tang Tianli shouted loudly, his face full of pride. He was so proud to be able to follow such an adult!
Chen Guodong shed tears with excitement
"Thank you sir, it will be an honor to die fighting for you!" At this moment, Chen Guodong's face was full of pride. He thought that after being injured, he would no longer be able to serve as a soldier, and he would not be able to eat this bowl of rice. However, he did not expect that he would encounter the biggest obstacle in his life. A noble man, how could Chen Guodong not be moved by this?
After the chair was brought, Zhao Xuanyi placed it next to Chen Guodong. Chen Guodong sat down with tears on his face, looked at Zhao Xuanyi, and was so excited that he didn't know what to say!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and patted Chen Guodong on the shoulder.
"Brother, thank you for your hard work!" Chen Guodong didn't say anything. He raised his face with a serious expression. When the guards around him saw that Chen Guodong could sit down, they all expressed envy on their faces, wondering why they didn't get such treatment?
Everyone is very greedy! Zhao Xuanyi continued to walk inside
"If this thing is done well, our dead brothers will be called if you can. You can take care of these things from now on!"
"Yes!" Several guards agreed happily. When they came to the door of the backyard, Tang Tianli and others did not dare to go in. After all, they could not enter the backyard. Zi Yuan and Cheng Ling also walked out. Seeing Zhao Xuanyi, Zi Yuan smiled.
"Uncle!"
"Well! How do you like it?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"This...?" Zi Yuan looked at the people around her and said nothing! Zhao Xuanyi also noticed it
"You should step back first, I will come back to you later!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei led everyone away! Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand, hugged Zi Yuan's waist, and walked into the backyard. Zi Yuan's face instantly turned red and she pushed Zhao Xuanyi's hand away.
"Are you crazy? In broad daylight?" Zhao Xuanyi hugged Zi Yuan again
"What are you afraid of? This is my own home. Who dares to meddle in my own business? Just kill him!" After Zi Yuan heard this, she felt happy instantly, turned around and threw herself into Zhao Xuanyi's arms, and the two hugged each other tightly.
"Uncle, why are there so many soldiers at home? Some of them were on the battlefield at that time!"
"Because this will be the place where I will make my fortune, and I have to be protected by someone. What? Do you feel uncomfortable?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"No! The General's Mansion is even better than here. I'm used to it, but there are too few servants here. Six maids and eight servants. If it gets really busy, we won't even be able to provide food for these people. !" Zi Yuan said.
"This is easy to solve. Tan Beiping is a fire-headed soldier. He can lead people to cook and provide supplies!"
"Not only cleaning, but also all kinds of repairs, etc. There are obviously not enough maids and servants!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled and kissed Zi Yuan on the lips.
"Now that you are the master of this place, it is up to you to have as many maids and servants as you want to obey you, it's up to you!"
"But...their interest?"
"I'll give it! How much can you use? Just feel free to recruit, and do whatever you want? You are the mistress of Piaoyun Pavilion!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
When Zi Yuan heard this, she was extremely happy. She hugged Zhao Xuanyi and laughed happily. At least in this small world, she could really have a sweet dream. Although it was not as big as the General's Mansion, at least it belonged to her and them!
Zhao Xuanyi patted Zi Yuan's butt
"Okay, I still have something to discuss with my brothers. You go and make arrangements first. My eldest brother is coming tonight to prepare wine and food!"
"Yeah!" Zi Yuan nodded happily, gave Zhao Xuanyi another sweet kiss, and then left! Zhao Xuanyi came to the atrium and found Shen Wei and the others. Everyone saw Zhao Xuanyi and hurriedly saluted.
"Sir!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Su Xiaoding
"You all get busy, Su Xiaoding, Brother Shen, come with me!"
"Yes!" Everyone dispersed, and Su Xiaoding and Shen Wei came over. Zhao Xuanyi took Su Xiaoding to the left side of the atrium. After walking in, everything was cleaned very clean. There were several wooden chairs in the yard. Zhao Xuanyi sat down.
Su Xiaoding and Shen Wei were standing!
"Sit down, you're welcome!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Ah? Sir, isn't it appropriate?" Su Xiaoding said timidly.
"Why are you so polite? We are all brothers!" Zhao Xuanyi said casually. Shen Wei took a chair and gave it to Su Xiaoding, who sat down cautiously.
"Su Xiaoding, you have been studying in the arsenal for a while. How are you doing with your technical skills?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
"It's still good... right? It's basically the same!" Su Xiaoding was originally a carpenter, and she also learned blacksmithing when she was a child, so practice makes perfect!
"That's it. I have something special that I want to entrust to you. I wonder if you can do it?" Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoding immediately sat up straight.
"Sir, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will do my best to die!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled and waved his hand quickly.
"No, no, no, it's not that serious! Take a look at this first!" Zhao Xuanyi took out some drawings from his sleeves!
Su Xiaoding took it, opened it, and was instantly attracted.
"Sir, is this...?" Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"I bought some pieces of jade from Shandong and I want to sell them, but if I want to sell these pieces of jade, I have to find a way, so I drew these drawings and I hope you can help me make them! can you?"
"This...?" Su Xiaoding looked at the drawings seriously, then turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi
"Sir, what material do you plan to use?"
"Of course it's silver, and then the broken jade stones are inlaid on it. I think you can understand my drawings!"
"Of course, but there is a problem. After you make this thing, sir, the connection point, the spring, cannot be made of silver. The texture of silver is too soft, and it will probably break in a short time!" After hearing this, Zhao Xuanyi said, I feel the same way
"What do you mean?"
"Use steel connections, so there will be no problem. I have been making Tianyi bows with Zhang Han for a while, making a lot of springs, just right! The rest... should be no problem, but I need time, I have never really done it Going through this will take time and may fail!" Su Xiaoding said with a look of shame.
"I'm not afraid! It's just damaging some money, as long as you can do it!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"The silver will not be damaged. Even if it fails, the silver can still be used after melting it. It just takes time!" Su Xiaoding said.
"Okay!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted, pointing to the room next to him.
"From today on, this courtyard is yours. You can live here and do these things here. No one is allowed to come in or disturb you. I will give you four guards to guard your door. No one can Don't come in!" Su Xiaoding stood up with blood on her face
"Don't worry, sir, I, Su Xiaoding, will definitely do this!"
"This is my brother Zhao Xuanyi! Cheng, this matter is settled. Also, this matter is not allowed to be told to outsiders. Let's put villains first and then be gentlemen. As for dividing the accounts...you make one, I will give you one." Two silvers, provided you don't cut corners for me, or steal jade, etc. You need money to tell me, if I find you stealing, Brother Shen's knife is not a vegetarian!" Zhao Xuanyi said seriously.
Su Xiaoding smiled
"Don't worry, sir. When that time comes, I won't need you to take action. I will end it myself. I will definitely live up to your trust!"
"He's a man!" Zhao Xuanyi was very happy and turned to look at Shen Wei
"I will bring over two boxes of jade and let Su Xiaoding arrange it by himself, and then I will give him a hundred taels of silver to practice!" Shen Wei thought to himself, if you are the second most prodigal in the entire Ming Dynasty, no one will dare to recognize the first. One hundred taels of silver to practice?
Listen to this!
"Yes!" The money is yours, you are the uncle!
"As for the equipment, Su Xiaoding, tell Brother Shen what you need and ask him to arrange for someone to get it for you!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"I understand, sir!" Su Xiaoding said with a smile.
