Chapter 153 This is a scam! Not only money, but also life!

At this time, the Empress turned her eyes to Lin Beifan, and said with a smile: “Lin Aiqing, you are the inventor of the hovercraft, a powerful weapon on water, and you have participated in the entire process of manufacturing the hovercraft! This water training is a heavy responsibility, and you are duty-bound. I will give it to you.” Put up a post to monitor! If the training is successful, you will be credited!”

This is the greatness of the emperor’s grace, and I can give you a little credit even if I don’t have any credit!

In this way, it will be easy to get promoted in the future!

However, Lin Beifan quickly refused: “Your Majesty, these are all professional matters! Professional matters are left to professional people. Mr. Li alone is enough, and I will not interfere as a scholar!”

The empress narrowed her eyes, and refused so simply, there must be something wrong with this guy!

“Okay! Then I will leave this matter to Li Aiqing!” The Empress nodded.

“Observe the order!” The Minister of the Ministry of War bowed again.

At this time, Lin Beifan turned his head and said to the Minister of the Ministry of War: “Master Li, this time the training on the water is a serious matter, and there is no room for loss! The official suspects that someone will come to sabotage, Master Li, please take care!”

“I have my own arrangements, so I don’t bother to sacrifice wine!” The Minister of the Ministry of War hummed.

He didn’t have a good look at Lin Beifan.

My child is studying in the Imperial College, so I don’t know how much money was cheated by the other party.

Besides, military drills are the specialty of their Ministry of War, and you, a scholar, are still needed to point them out?

Joke!

Lin Beifan smiled slightly and didn’t care.

When the time comes, you will have to cry!

In this way, the matter is settled.

The imperial court will hold a water training exercise on the first day of next month.

They will use the newly manufactured hovercraft to transport a large amount of military supplies, starting from the mother river in the capital, all the way down to Shangzhou, the whole journey is 300 miles.

The main purpose is to test the effect of the long-distance transportation of the hovercraft.

At the same time, we will raise our country’s prestige and deter all directions.

As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar among the people.

“I heard that this water hovercraft is a new type of water transport ship made by the imperial court. It can carry goods and people. The cargo capacity is several times that of ordinary ships. It’s amazing!”

“After the hovercraft is rolled out, it will form a small piece of land, which makes people come here like walking on flat ground. The scene is spectacular!”

“I heard that this ship is very cheap to build, and it is very simple to make. The imperial court produced thousands of ships in less than three months. I wonder if it can be launched for commercial use?”

“This water training exercise is a rare opportunity, we must go and see it!”

“Who says it’s not!”

……

For ordinary people, the main thing is to watch the excitement.

But for the feudal lords and the emperors of various countries, this is an excellent opportunity to seize the air bag.

Usually, these airbags are locked in the workshop of the Ministry of Industry.

The guards are heavily guarded and the guards are strict. It is almost dead if you break into it.

Today, the Great Wu court conducts water training and uses hovercraft to transport military supplies, with a battle line as long as 300 miles.

They couldn’t believe it anymore. After such a long journey, there was no chance to make a move.

As a result, the ambitious people were excited.

“This time, I must get the airbag~!”

“Send masters to this king to snatch the hovercraft!”

“No matter how much you pay, you have to bring back a few airbags!”

……

So, all the ambitious people sent their masters to the capital.

In a private room, Lin Beifan and Wang Fugui exchanged cups.

Lin Beifan smiled at Wang Fugui: “Boss Wang, I’ve taken care of the matter for you! With the ability of the prince, it shouldn’t be a problem to grab a few airbags, right?”

Wang Fugui was very excited, and offered a toast to Lin Beifan: “As expected of Mr. Jijiu, as long as you take action, there is nothing that cannot be done. Caomin thank you on behalf of the prince!”

Lin Beifan said dissatisfiedly: “Boss Wang, they are all his own people. What does it look like to thank you? It’s too polite!”

Wang Fugui slapped his head: “Oh, Master Jijiu is right!”

Lin Beifan: “It’s better to give money!”

Wang Fugui: “Damn!”

So, Wang Fugui took out a sum of money to Lin Beifan.

At first glance, there are 300,000 taels.

Lin Beifan smiled even more happily, and picked up the wine glass: “The prince is generous, let’s continue drinking!”

Then, Lin Beifan took another sum of money from other people.

Although not much, it adds up to 3 million taels.

Including the previous ones, the total was more than 8 million taels, which made Lin Beifan a small profit.

Time passed by slowly, and Lin Beifan has been paying attention to the preparations for this water training.

It was discovered that he was worthy of being the experienced Minister of the Ministry of War, and the arrangements for this time’s military training were orderly and orderly.

However, a major flaw was also discovered, that is, insufficient troops.

The Minister of the Ministry of War only arranged for 20,000 soldiers and horses.

On weekdays, a water military exercise is mainly used to transport military supplies. 20,000 soldiers and horses are enough to deal with most situations, but this meeting is far from enough.

Because this time, he will face all kinds of experts.

Not only from domestic vassals, but also from other countries.

In order to grab the airbag and go back to study, they must put all their eggs in one basket and send powerful experts to come.

These 20,000 troops are not enough at all, and 30,000 to 40,000 troops are a little bit reluctant.

As for whether to remind the Minister of War…

As soon as this idea came up, Lin Beifan dismissed it.

The two of them were like fire and water, and they often confronted each other in court, and it would be good if the other party didn’t give him a slap in the face.

Lin Beifan has no tendency to be masochistic, so he doesn’t bother to talk to him.

So, Lin Beifan decided to find the head arrester of Six Doors.

The last time we cooperated, the two established a good friendship, so we can leave this matter to them.

So, one night, Lin Beifan came to the door with some small gifts.

“Master Jijiu is here, what a rare visitor! You just come here and why don’t you bring any gifts? Please come in quickly! Dongmei, hurry up and prepare good tea to entertain Mr. Jijiu!” Catcher Guo was very enthusiastic.

You know, if Lin Beifan hadn’t taken action to solve the problem of the duel between the two masters last time, the six sects would have sacrificed so many brothers, let alone make money from it.

So, I am grateful to Lin Beifan in my heart.

Lin Beifan smiled and said, “Master Guo, you don’t have to be so polite! The reason why I came first is because I still have important matters to discuss, and I will go back after the discussion!”

Guo Catcher’s face turned straight, and he stretched out his hand to get out of the way and said, “Master Jijiu, please come to the study room!”

The two walked into the study while talking and laughing.

After the servant served two cups of hot tea, he immediately retreated, leaving only the two of them in the room.

After taking a sip of tea, Catcher Guo said seriously, “Master Jijiu, what is the matter?”

“It’s about the training on the water!” Lin Beifan said seriously: “This time the training on the water may lead to major incidents!”

“What’s the big deal?” Guo Catcher’s expression became serious.

Lin Beifan said in a low voice: “I heard that the King of Jibei, the King of Jiangnan and others are ambitious, and they will send masters to seize the hovercraft during this water exercise!”

Catcher Guo was shocked: “There is such a thing? Is the news reliable?”

“This news comes from my two confidantes, Sword Master and Sword Fairy! They have gone out to travel, and then heard about it by accident, and sent the news back to me!”

After hearing this, Catcher Guo was very envious. It is good to have two master friends!

“However, Lord Jijiu, this military training is in charge of the military training! You should tell Lord Li the news. Why did you come to me?” Guo Butou asked puzzled.

Lin Beifan smiled wryly: “` “Master Guo, do you think that based on my relationship with him, can he believe what I say?”

“That’s true!” Catcher Guo nodded.

Although the focus of his work is in the rivers and lakes and not in the court, he also knows very clearly that Lin Beifan and the Minister of the Ministry of War are in dire straits today.

To be precise, Lin Beifan and everyone in the court are in a state of incompatibility. Either you die or I live.

Under such circumstances, who would believe what I said?

“You can tell His Majesty…”

“It’s hard to say! After all, there is still a problem with the source of the news. I believe my two close friends, but His Majesty may not believe it! Even if I believe it, I am prepared, but if the person does not come by then, the responsibility will fall It’s on my head!”

Lin Beifan smiled wryly: “Would the court officials give up on such a good opportunity to attack? They will definitely make trouble. At that time, the future of this official may be ruined!”

“Master Jijiu, it’s really difficult for you!” Guo Butou patted Lin Beifan’s thigh to express his sympathy.

“It’s the so-called reward of eating the king, and worrying about the king!” Lin Beifan straightened his face and said to the sky: “Since you know this matter, you can’t ignore it, or you will be ashamed of the emperor’s grace! Therefore, I have to come to Mr. Guo You!”

“Master Jijiu, what do you want me to do?” Catcher Guo asked.

“It’s very simple!” Lin Beifan said with a smile: “Master Guo, you can arrange for masters from the six sects to secretly follow the training soldiers along the way! If nothing happens, it’s fine. If something goes wrong, Mr. Guo, your troops can just take action! The face of the imperial court has also made a great contribution, isn’t that beautiful?”

Catcher Guo was very moved when he heard this.

If it’s okay, that’s fine. If something happens, you can just make a great contribution!

No loss left or right!

To him, it’s all about gain and nothing harm!

“Okay!” Guo Baotou patted his thigh: “Master Jijiu is right! Anyway, during this period of time, there is nothing serious in the world, and my soldiers are all free, so I can arrange for them to take a look! It’s okay. That’s all, if you have something to do, you can do your part for the court and share your majesty’s worries! Haha!”

Lin Beifan laughed and said, “Master Guo is absolutely right!”

Next, Lin Beifan went to visit the Commander-in-Chief of Jin Yiwei and informed him of the matter, hoping that they would send some experts to guard against it.

This matter is so important that the commander-in-chief dared not make up his own mind, so he reported the matter to the Empress.

When the Empress heard this, her face twitched: “This is a piece of shit!”

She already knew what Lin Beifan was up to.

Not only money, but also life!

But I have to say that this plan is very good, and it fits her wishes very well!

Some excitedly said: “Since Lin Aiqing’s words are convincing, we can arrange more manpower! So, send half of Jin Yiwei’s innate masters there!”

“So many?” Commander Jin Yiwei was dumbfounded.

“Maybe not enough!”

The empress pondered for a moment, and said: “Also, half of the innate masters from the east and west factories have secretly mobilized there! This time, I will definitely let them come and go!”

The commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei was even more dumbfounded.
