Yang Tiexin was unmoved, but looked up at Lin Yun.
Everyone had a panoramic view of this scene, and they all secretly admired Lin Yun's ability to control people's hearts.
The Eight Sage King said playfully: "It seems that even if I enter Niubei Village, I must obey Mr. Lin!"
Lin Yun smiled and said, "That's what the Eighth Prince said! How dare I be rude to you? Mr. Yang, get up! Don't make the Eighth Prince look bad!"
Yang Tiexin then stood up and waited respectfully aside.
Lin Yun was very satisfied with Yang Tiexin's reaction.
Just now, the Eight Wise Kings wanted to recruit skilled craftsmen from the village, but Lin Yun would definitely not agree.
And Yang Tiexin is the most important technician under Lin Yun. He deliberately kept silent just now, just to let the Eight Wise King know something. As long as I, Lin Yun, don't nod, let alone you, the Eight Wise King, even if the emperor comes, don't even think about it. Give orders, let alone worry about my people.
The Eight Sage King nodded, looked at Yang Tiexin and asked, "Mr. Lin, this old gentleman is..."...
"Oh, he is the most powerful craftsman under my command. The weapons and equipment recently manufactured were all completed under his command!"
The Eight Sage King raised his eyebrows, and then looked at Yang Tiexin with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.
Yang Tiexin looked humble and explained quickly: "Eighth Prince, don't get me wrong, I am just helping the young master to supervise the work. The real workmanship is all provided by my young master!"
The Eight Sages just smiled and said nothing, but in his heart he was thinking about how to draw Yang Tiexin into the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court.
Lin Yun naturally saw what the Eighth Prince was thinking about and said, "Mr. Yang, the Eighth Prince came to our Niubei Village this time to select talents! With Mr. Yang's current ability, once he becomes an official in the court, I'm sure I'll be able to shine! There's a much better future than following me in Niubei Village!"
As soon as these words came out, both the Eight Sages and Qi Rui looked at Lin Yun with half-smiles.
Only Yang Tiexin was walking on thin ice, and he heard that Lin Yun's words were a deliberate warning to him.
He was so frightened that he knelt on the ground again, clasped his fists and said: "Young Master has not only saved lives, but also helped you to find a way out of your family. Xiao Lao will never leave Young Master in this life! If Young Master doesn't want Xiao Lao anymore, then Xiao Lao would rather Die immediately!"
As he spoke, he took out a sharp dagger from his arms and wanted to commit suicide.
This scene stunned Baxian Wang and Qi Rui. Neither of them expected that this old man would be so extreme.
He also admired Lin Yun's method of controlling people's hearts even more.
Lin Yun helped Yang Tiexin up with a smile and said, "Okay! Don't be so nervous, Mr. Yang! What is the identity of the Eight Wise Kings? How could it harm your life? You have nothing to do here, so keep going to work!"
He was very satisfied with Yang Tiexin's performance and achieved his goal of taking the Eight Sages to visit the factory.
Yang Tiexin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After saluting the Eight Wise Kings, he turned around and went back to work.
At this time, the Eighth Sage King took a deep breath and said meaningfully: "Master Lin, you have opened my eyes this time!"
Lin Yun clasped his fists and smiled: "I made the Eighth Prince laugh!".
"Okay! I am not the kind of unreasonable person! I just mentioned the matter of craftsmen, forget it! But you said before that you would help the court form an elite force of 10,000 people within a year, but you can You can't go back on your word! Otherwise, you will be guilty of deceiving the emperor!"
Lin Yun felt proud in his heart. The Eighth Prince said this, obviously trying to regain some face, after all, in front of all his subordinates.
Lin Yun nodded and said: "Eighth Prince, don't worry, since I promised, I will definitely do it!"
The Eight Wise Kings said: "Where is the cellar where weapons and equipment are stored in Niubei Village? Can you let me also visit?"
It can be said that he has gained a lot from his visit to Niubei Village this time.
Being able to get Lin Yun's guarantee of providing weapons and equipment can be regarded as completing the task assigned by the emperor.
Next, he did not plan to make things difficult for Lin Yun. On the contrary, he wanted to please Lin Yun and pave the way for his future.
In the heart of the Eight Wise Kings, as long as Lin Yun wiped out the Lin family of the feudal lord this time, it didn't matter whether the means used were aboveboard or not.
The emperor will definitely set Lin Yun up as a model and cut down the vassal
Carry on to the end.
Therefore, in the next few years, Lin Yun will still have success in the Daduan Dynasty.
Naturally, the Eight Wise Kings cannot offend such a person, they can only win over him.
Lin Yun smiled and said: "Okay, please invite the Eighth Prince!"
After that, everyone went all the way to the cellar in the center of the village.
There were more than a dozen fully armed private soldiers stationed outside the door. Each of them had a bamboo gun hanging on his waist and a large amount of ammunition wrapped around his body. Coupled with the fact that they were wearing Yin helmets and silver armor, they looked majestic. .
In terms of momentum, it is not inferior to the regular army of the imperial court at all.
At this time, Qi Rui praised: "The private army soldiers trained by Mr. Lin have strict military discipline at first glance, and their combat effectiveness is probably no worse than that of our regular army!"
In response, Lin Yun just smiled and said nothing.
The Eighth Sage King rolled his eyes and said, "Commander Qi, are you trying to humiliate Mr. Lin with these words?"
Qi Rui was shocked and quickly knelt down on one knee and said, "I don't dare!"
"Haha!" The Eight Sage King raised his head and laughed: "Commander Qi, we have come all the way this time. In addition to assisting Mr. Lin in doing important things, I also hope that you can learn more about Mr. Lin's methods of running an army! After all, The responsibility on your shoulders is very heavy. You are usually responsible for the safety of the emperor. If anything goes wrong, your family will be useless even if it is a loyal family for generations!"
"I understand! Thank you, Eighth Prince, for your advice!"
Lin Yun clasped his fists and said, "Don't praise me too much, the Eighth Prince! I, Lin Yun, am just a countryman, and these private soldiers usually don't perform well. They just learned that the Eighth Prince was coming, so they deliberately pretended!"
Then, he shouted: "Open the cellar door!"
"Yes, sir!"
Two private soldiers immediately opened the chain and struggled to pull the door open.
These two doors were reinforced later, naturally to prevent people from breaking in.
Most people simply cannot push this door open.
Suddenly, a dark wind blew out of the cellar, filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
The Eight Wise Kings quickly covered their mouth and nose with a handkerchief and looked into the dark cellar with a shocked expression.
Lin Yun made a gesture of invitation and said, "Eighth Prince, please invite me!"
The Eight Wise Kings nodded and walked in first.
At this time, Qi Rui, who was following behind, took out a fire folder from his arms. Just as he was about to pull it away, he was held down by Lin Yun.
"Commander Qi, if you don't want all of us to die here, don't use the open fire!"
The Eight Wise Kings asked curiously: "Why can't we use open fire?"
It was pitch black all around, and only the light coming in through the exhaust holes made it possible to vaguely see the surrounding environment.
Lin Yun said: "The gunpowder I developed is flammable and explosive. It will explode when it encounters an open flame! And there is a lot of black powder stored in this cellar. If it explodes, it is estimated that half of the village will be destroyed, let alone us. It's going to be blown to the ground!"
