With life, it seems to be alive, and I am amazed to see it.

Li Er heard the exclamation and wanted to know how the painting was. He wanted to come up and take a look. Qin Huaidao quickly shouted: "Your Majesty, don't move yet, otherwise you won't be able to paint."

After observing for a moment, Qin Huaidao continued to draw the nose, mouth, then ears, hair, etc. After the face was drawn, he began to draw the neck and clothes. The combination of thick and thin lines was elegant and smart. Everyone was so shocked that they forgot to speak.

After all the drawings were completed, everyone praised them.

Li Er hurriedly came up to take a look and was shocked - was this him?

Familiar appearance, familiar attire, a bit of intimacy in the majesty, especially those eyes, as if another person is looking at each other. This feeling is very unique and weird.

"It looks like, it's so similar, it's exactly the same." Fang Xuanling said sincerely.

Changsun Wuji also said: "My dear nephew, can you draw one for me so that I can hang it in the main hall? I would like to pay a thousand taels for the brushstrokes. How about that?"

Anyone who has a mine at home means he has money. If he asked for a thousand taels, Qin Huaidao was a little moved, but he did not express his position immediately. Instead, he looked at Li Er. Li Er didn't have any money on him. He took out a jade pendant and handed it over, saying with satisfaction: "I am very happy."

Satisfied, this is for you, but it’s a bit small, can you make it bigger?”

The jade pendant gifted by the Holy Spirit is absolutely priceless, but it is really priceless, because it cannot be sold, it can only be kept for family heirlooms, otherwise it would be disrespectful. Qin Huaidao has no interest in jewelry, jade and the like, so he might as well give money, but no

He was afraid that Li Er wouldn't even give him the jade pendant, so he took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward. Next time, be more prepared and paint a bigger picture!"

"Why, you still look unhappy, this is the finest mutton-fat jade." Li Er said dissatisfied.

"If you can't eat it and can't use it, it's better to reward him with some cloth and silk. The gold and silver are real." Qin Huaidao said bluntly.

Li Jing was startled. He was looking for death. He quickly scolded: "You are just making nonsense!"

"Quickly apologize to the Holy One!" Fang Xuanling was also frightened.

Li Er was also a little angry. He dared to be dissatisfied with the reward. Was he not afraid of death, or was he seeking death? Seeing Qin Huaidao's eyes clear, sincere and indifferent, he suddenly understood and said with a smile: "No need to make a fuss, I actually like Huaidao.

Be frank, be frank, speak out when you think of it, don’t be hypocritical, don’t be pretentious. The jade pendant is indeed a dead thing. What you like is a priceless treasure. What you don’t like is just a stone. It’s not as real as money, food, cloth and silk. Take the jade pendant first. I gave it to you, but I didn’t get it back.

The truth is, when you come back with victory, I will reward you well."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Huaidao agreed nonchalantly.

"Your Majesty, you cannot spoil this child, otherwise he will become lawless." Fang Xuanling said quickly.

"That's right, I will go back and discipline Brother Qin properly." Li Jing also said.

Qin Huaidao could see that Fang Xuanling and Li Jing were trying to help him smooth things over and plead for mercy. His heart warmed up and when he saw Duan Lun come in, he swallowed what he wanted to say.

"Is it done?" Li Er's eyes lit up and he stared at Duan Lun.

Duan Lun quickly showed off a few horseshoes in his hand, looked at Qin Huaidao and asked, "But this kind?"

Qin Huaidao took it over to see if the quality was good, so he nodded and said, "Can you bring over a war horse with some damaged hoofs and test it on the spot, so that your Majesty can rest assured?"

"Quickly, bring the war horse with the damaged hoof." Li Er urged, putting away the painting and handing it to Wang De.

Wang De quickly took it and put it away.

Not long after, a war horse was brought in. It was tiptoeing and had some difficulty walking. Qin Huaidao asked Duan Lun to find a hammer, nails and a stool, and pressed one of the horse's legs on the stool. He saw that the horse's hoof was somewhat deformed and cracked.

, he also found a tool that specializes in horseshoe repair, trimmed the horseshoes flat, and nailed the horseshoes on.

Everyone saw that the horses did not resist, and it was obvious that nailing them on would not hurt or damage the horses' hoofs. They all secretly breathed a sigh of relief and waited expectantly.

Not long after, horseshoes were nailed on all four hooves. Li Er got on his horse, ignored the obstruction, and rode the horse towards the spacious school field in front. As an emperor on horseback, Li Er's riding skills were not bad. Horseshoes were too important for others to try.

rest assured.

At first, Li Er felt that the war horse was running a little cautiously. The war horse was spiritual and was afraid of pain. Gradually, the war horse got the feeling and ran more steadily. It rushed directly onto the uneven road paved with stones and ran happily. Li Er was excited

He laughed loudly, patted the horse's neck and said, "Horse, you haven't run like this for a long time, have you?"

"Herod!"

The war horse neighed and stood tall, as if in response.

"Hahaha, let's go back!" Li Er was in a good mood. A war horse with some damaged hoofs was replaced with horseshoes, and it was as if it was not damaged. No, it ran more steadily than when it was not damaged. There were too many war horses with damaged hoofs in the Tang Dynasty.

, at this moment, Li Er saw one hundred thousand cavalry roaring away, and he was in a good mood.

After turning back, Li Er dismounted, looked at Qin Huaidao with satisfaction and said: "It's just a small horseshoe, but it solved a big problem that all dynasties have been unable to solve. With this thing, my Tang Dynasty will no longer have to worry about being without cavalry. This is a peerless achievement, I am very pleased, I will remember it for you first, and then I will reward you later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Huaidao thanked him.

"Where's the Liannu?" Li Er looked at Duan Lun.

"It still takes some time." Duan Lun said quickly.

"How long will it take to make 5,000 pieces?" Li Er asked.

"At least two months, mainly because everyone is not familiar with the craft. It will be slow at the beginning. Once you are familiar with it, it will be much faster. It should be completed in two months." Duan Lun said quickly.

"Two months is too long, can it be faster?" Li Er asked.

"This..." Duan Lun looked embarrassed.

Qin Huaidao made an estimate and found that there were enough manpower and materials. One month would be enough. The Ministry of Industry had no shortage of craftsmen and materials. Why would it take two months? He suddenly thought of something and said, "Master Duan, can each person make one piece at a time?"

"Naturally, there are not many skilled craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry. It takes time to get familiar with it. This..."

Qin Huaidao interrupted: "Mr. Duan, you don't need to do it one by one, and you don't need to be an experienced hand. A novice can do it. It's too difficult and too slow for one person to master all the processes. It can be broken down. Each person is only responsible for one of the processes. Practice makes perfect. Very Not only can you master it quickly, but also do it quickly. One month is enough. If you have enough people, half a month will be enough."

"One person, one process, decomposition?" Duan Lun vaguely caught something, and his eyes lit up.

"That's right, one person is only responsible for one process. After completing it, he passes it to the next person, and the next person passes it to the next person. This repeats. By the last person, a repeating crossbow is ready, just like flowing water. I call this production method assembly line production, Mr. Duan can give it a try." Qin Huaidao explained.

Duan Lun was in charge of the engineering department, so he was naturally impressive. After hearing the explanation, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said happily: "Master Qin, this method is wonderful. One person is only responsible for one process. Not only can he learn quickly, but he can also keep it secret. Practice makes perfect, and the faster you do it, the faster you will do it." , maybe it can be completed in a month.”

"Hahaha, not bad." Li Er patted Qin Huaidao on the shoulder with satisfaction. This kind of intimate action is not something most people can enjoy. This is the real Jian Zai Di Xin.

When everyone saw this scene, they were all happy for Qin Huaidao and also happy for Qin Qiong.

Duan Lun suddenly said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry is vacant, and I recommend Mr. Qin."

"You recommend... the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry?" Li Er was a little surprised.

"If Mr. Qin is not willing, I am willing to give way." Duan Lun said seriously: "The assembly line manufacturing method can not only be used for Liannu, but also for other products. It will completely solve the problem of insufficient production of the Ministry of Industry, and even the quality will be improved. It is a great achievement, and future generations will imitate it. This skill will last forever. The horseshoes and crossbows Master Qin brought out are even more exquisite, surpassing those of his predecessors. I feel ashamed and willing to give in to those who are better."

"No!" Fang Xuanling became anxious when he heard this, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Huai Dao is better at managing the world and benefiting the people. He should stay in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The court is short of food and silver, so Huai Dao is needed even more."

Li Er looked at Fang Xuanling, then at Duan Lun, and suddenly realized that he still underestimated Qin Huaidao's ability. Thinking that he was about to become his son-in-law, he suddenly felt proud of having the world's best among his own, and felt very happy.

Li Jing saw that Li Er wanted to express his position. How could such a great talent be left in the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs? He should go to the Ministry of War, but he had no real military exploits and it was difficult to recommend him. He quickly persuaded him: "Your Majesty, it is better to wait for a while and wait for something big."

Let’s make a decision later.”

There were too many people around him, so Li Jing did not dare to directly say something like "wait for the Khitan to succeed in the battle".

Li Er understood the idea and suddenly remembered that Li Jing had said more than once that Qin Huaidao was proficient in the art of war and everyone praised him. No one in the world had ever been praised like this by Li Jing, otherwise he would not have agreed to let Qin Huaidao lead the army to Khitan.

If we can really capture Khitan...

He is not only an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, but also a peerless genius and all-rounder that will not be born for thousands of years.

Thinking of the gap between the old and new military generals in the DPRK, Li Er became more determined to let Qin Huaidao give it a try. If he failed, the loss would not be big. Once he succeeded, the Tang Dynasty would have one more general and the military would have no worries.

Thinking of this, Li Er decided to wait for a while and wait for the Khitan before talking. He immediately said: "Duan Aiqing, quickly follow Huai Dao's assembly line production method. I will give you a month at most to make five thousand repeating crossbows and one hundred thousand crossbows."

Horseshoes, what else do you need?" He looked at Qin Huaidao after saying this.

Qin Huaidao said quickly: "One million matching crossbow arrows."

"Is there any problem?" Li Er looked at Duan Lun.

Duan Lun made a quick calculation and said: "It should be no problem if I return to the Holy Spirit. I haven't tried the assembly line yet, so I'm not sure, but I promise to mobilize all the manpower to go all out and produce day and night."
