Too slow, too far from what he imagined and planned.
"If you want the frontier to be stable and peaceful, you need not only to send troops to disrupt the attack, but also to create chaos in their royal court, so that they can't work together to free up their hands." Xie Yixiu said.
"So, for the Suixi Kingdom, we have to keep an eye on it all the time. Will the spies we trained get in there?"
This is Ming Yu's plan. Since Ming Yu came back from Suixi Kingdom last time, he has planned to let his own spies go deep into the enemy's side, and it is best to gain the trust of the powerful.
In the past, their spies were just listening to some news in the fringe areas, and they never thought about sending them missions to let them get in touch with them one step further, let alone let them get in touch with the dignitaries of the royal court.
After Ming Yu learned about it, he made a plan to let their people change their previous strategy and work hard in contacting the dignitaries of the royal court. As long as you can break into the enemy's interior, when you need it, you can not only bring out news, but also stir up disputes within the enemy and stir up the muddy water.
"It's a bit difficult, but there are already plans, and some people have already started to contact, but I'm afraid it will not be easy to achieve results for a while." Xie Yixiu naturally participated in this plan, and also gave a lot of suggestions. So Xie Yixiu is very clear about it, and is supervising this area.
There is no way, since there are few people in Ming Yu's hands, there can only be one person with multiple roles, and those who are capable will work harder.
"That's true, don't worry, everything should be careful, and you must not show your feet, so as not to fail." Ming Yu instructed.
Of course Xie Yixiu knew this, he had already ordered it to go on. These spies who accepted the task were all quick-witted and fast-moving, and they were very trusted by him. I believe that after a long time, they will be able to complete the task very well.
However, he remembered something and asked, "Do you still remember Tuoba Jiu, my lord?"
Mentioning Tuoba Nine, Ming Yu did remember, not only remembered but also deeply impressed. Didn't he just fall into the hands of this person? It is impossible for him to forget it in his whole life.
Ming Yu nodded, "Tuoba Jiu, he is considered to be the Prince of Suixi, and if he returns to the royal court this time, he will regain his status, right?"
Tuobajiu really hid it too deeply. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would never have believed that the honest, honest and taciturn Gan Jiu who had been living in Liangcheng was the prince of Suixi Kingdom.
"Indeed, Tuobahong has restored his status as a prince, but this status is not of much use, he is still a transparent person. Tuobahong has sealed off a place for him, and he has been sent far away." Xie Yixiu also got it Xinbao, from which I knew what happened after Tuoba Jiu went back, so I paid attention to it.
Thinking about it, this is the ending. For a prince who was not valued and was given up early, it is already very good to have a place to live in peace.
But Ming Yu didn't know what Xie Yixiu meant by mentioning this unrelated person.
"Maybe this person will be useful. People can get in touch with him. Maybe one day he will be able to use it?" Xie Yixiu narrowed his eyes slightly. This person may be a pawn. Although he is not noticeable, if It should still be possible to make a fuss about him.
An idea flashed in Ming Yu's mind, but it was fleeting, and he wanted to catch it but there was nothing. He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, wanting to think deeply, but his thoughts were very confused for a while.
Ming Yu had no choice but to stop thinking about it, and replied following Xie Yixiu's words: "It's fine, you can arrange it yourself. Even if it's an idle game, it can be useful for a day. Anyway, it's best to plan ahead."
The two agreed on how to take the next step, and Xie Yixiu said goodbye and left.
In the workshop, Mr. Huang was frowning, scratching his head with his hands, and scratched off several strands of his originally thin and gray hair.
"Huang Lao, why don't you send someone to ask the prince again?" The people around him couldn't help saying seeing Huang Lao like this.
Mr. Huang is now studying the cement recipe left by Ming Yu, they have never seen the cement that Wang Ye said. But having said that, the things that the prince came up with were all weird things, and they had never heard of them.
Things like glass, clairvoyance, and thunderbolt bombs, when the prince mentioned them, they never believed that such things existed. Are you sure that these things are not only available to the gods in the sky? However, these miraculous things were really created in their step-by-step experiments.
Now, as long as it is what the prince said, they have fully believed that they will be able to create miracles and show these perfect productions.
The crafting workshop is now completely divided into research and production of new things. When these things are developed, the recipe steps will be distributed to the following crafting workshops that belong to the branch of the crafting workshop.
The craftsman's workshop is divided by assembly line, which means that only one part can be made in one place. The processes in several places are completely different, and in the end, the scattered parts produced are completely integrated together, and it is considered complete.
In this way, the benefits can be seen with the naked eye, and the workers in each place can master the process proficiently, so that the quantity and speed of production can be maximized. The second and most important point is that it is not easy to leak secrets. Even if there are enemy spies who want to inquire, they are just peeking at the leopard. It is impossible to fully understand the entire process, and naturally they cannot steal the method.
This thing called cement has been developed for a long time, but for some reason, it is always far from what the prince said. They compared the proportions of raw materials one by one, and the performance was not as outstanding as the prince said.
Huang Lao was a little hesitant. They had worked hard on this thing, but there was something that they didn't achieve that made them unthinkable.
He frowned and said: "My lord has a lot of time to deal with, and I'm busy with the Xiqi Corridor. The affairs are cumbersome. It's really unreasonable for us to bother the lord with this little thing."
He also couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart. The prince had already proposed the general direction, and the rest was made by people like them. If you bother the prince with everything, what do you need them for
"Then what should we do? Can't delay the prince's business?" The bystanders worried.
Mr. Huang sighed, "What else can we do? Let's continue the experiment." He didn't believe it. "All of you should think about it carefully and see if there is any other way. Now we are recruiting everyone together for the purpose of brainstorming. We are researchers who are valued by the prince, and we cannot rely on the prince for everything."
"Hahaha! You are all here? What do you expect from me? I just put forward some suggestions, and the specific ones are not much better than you. Many things have to be done by everyone's collective efforts and hands-on experiments."
As soon as the words fell, Ming Yu had already walked in with great strides.
Everyone was surprised and delighted, they were thinking about the prince, so this is coming. They count on Ming Yu to solve the problem in their hearts, mainly because Ming Yu's thinking is different from most of them. His thinking is ecstatic and active, and he can imagine many impossible things. It's not like they are too rigid and stubborn, always look at everything in a specific way of thinking, how much creativity can there be
In many cases, one or two sentences from the prince can remind the direction of research and creation, so that they can avoid many detours.
Seeing Ming Yu, everyone got up one after another, Huang Lao took the lead to salute Ming Yu, "Greetings to the prince."
Ming Yu helped him up and waved his hands, "I haven't come here for a while, why are you all so polite instead?"
One sentence made the atmosphere of the whole venue more relaxed. The prince is still the tolerant and considerate prince, and has never changed. This makes everyone feel at ease.
Ming Yu walked to the upper seat and sat down, motioning for everyone to sit down and discuss. This is the conference room specially remodeled by Ming Yu. The space is large, with a long table in the middle, which can accommodate a dozen or twenty people for meetings and discussions.
Ming Yu came by coincidence, just in time for them to have a meeting to discuss because of the lack of progress in cement.
After everyone sat down, Ming Yu spread his hands, "Tell me about the situation, how is the progress."
Cement is the top priority of Ming Yu's confession, so now all the staff in the craftsman workshop are focusing on research on this topic. At this time, when Ming Yu asked, everyone felt a sense of guilt.
They have been researching and making it for so long, but they have made no progress until now, how can they live up to the prince's entrustment.
150. Chapter 150
Huang Lao looked ashamed, "My lord, the villain has failed my lord's entrustment. The cement you mentioned has never met the standard mentioned by my lord."
Ming Yu nodded, motioning for him to explain more clearly.
Huang Lao's face was wrinkled, and his brows were frowning at this moment, which looked deeper. He talked about the process of cement development, and finally said helplessly: "We have adjusted the ratio many times, but the strength of the cement produced is not enough, and it cannot meet the requirements of the prince."
Ming Yu frowned in thought. He knew that cement was very simple. He only needed the formula ratio to be calcined and then ground into a fine powder. Since Mr. Huang said that there is no problem with the ratio, what link is wrong
Ming Yu repeatedly asked about some places, and Huang Lao and everyone answered them one by one.
There is indeed no problem with the proportional steps. Ming Yu pondered for a long time, then raised his head, what is your calcination temperature
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing why, but Huang Lao stood up and said back: "My lord, we use firewood for calcination, what's the reason for this temperature?"
After hearing this, Ming Yu slapped his head, "It's not that there is black coal, why not use coal for calcination?"
Someone replied: "The lord is talking about black stones? That thing is rare, I
