Voices came from among the older carpenters!
They are all questioning, is Fifth Young Master crazy?
In the carpenter's field, there are occasionally people who go completely insane because their work is not appreciated or destroyed!
However, the chances of this seem very small!
Cao Lin pulled Cao Xiong, "Fifth Brother, let's forget about this competition. It's no big deal if we don't fight for this workshop!" His tone was very gentle, and he was really afraid that something might happen to Fifth Brother.
Lingju, on the other hand, seemed extremely anxious, he didn't speak, but his heart was rolling out one sentence after another.
"Cao Xiong, Cao Xiong, you can't be crazy! You want to help me avenge my sister! Don't talk nonsense!"
Cao Xiong glanced at everyone, and from the eyes of everyone, he realized that everyone was worried about him!
Why is Cao Xiong's heart so fragile?
Can't stand a little setback?
What's more, this is no setback!
Because of Flying Muluan, in this competition with Hao Zhao, Hao Zhao has undoubtedly lost.
Now, there is no time to explain, Cao Xiong quickly took out the "Flying Wood Luan Production Manual" from the inventory of the operation interface of the live broadcast room and threw it directly to Cao Lin!
"Brother Cao Lin, please take everyone with you, work harder, and drive this flying wooden luan out! We have a big chance of victory!"
Cao Lin listened to Cao Xiong's words, and at the same time looked through the flying wooden luan manufacturing manual together with old carpenter Liu beside him!
At the end, the gazes of Cao Lin and Old Carpenter Liu changed from calm to restless!It was even a shock at the end!
Oh my god!
In today's world, there are still such wooden crafts!
Flying wooden luan is simply more than a thousand times more exquisite than ladder car!
"Where is the fifth brother crazy? The fifth brother is calm and calm, and he has a countermeasure early in the morning!"
Cao Lin shouted happily, and quickly circulated the "Flying Wooden Luan Making Manual" among all the carpenters.
"Flying Wood Luan Production Manual" is very detailed in introducing and explaining the production method of flying wooden luan!
After these experienced senior carpenters saw it, their eyes widened, and they all found it incredible!
Some carpenters even went on non-stop to sort the remaining materials, as if they were going to do a big job.
Cao Xiong didn't hesitate, according to Zhu Youxiao's explanation, he quickly guided the carpenters to assemble.
Even though it was late at night, all the carpenters and government soldiers were very energetic!
There is no intention of dozing off at all, and everyone is working hard!
Cao Lin and Old Carpenter Liu coordinated and directed everything in an orderly manner!
Cao Xiong appeared calm on the surface, but in fact he was extremely nervous.
Tomorrow morning, there will be a competition to judge, and to make a flying wooden luan in one night, is there really enough time?
Simply Cao Xiong took over from old carpenter Liu to direct, and directly liberated old carpenter Liu, allowing him to join in the process of assembly and production.
Chapter 133
In the early morning, the first ray of warm sunlight shone into the meeting hall of the Sikong Mansion.
Routine church meetings will continue as usual.
It's just that only a dozen civil servants and military generals came to this hall meeting, most of them were generals in Cao Cao's forces, such as Xiahoudun brothers, and there were also a few counselors, such as Liu Ye.
In today's meeting, Cao Cao seemed a little absent-minded.
From time to time, his eyes glanced towards the southwest direction of Sikong Mansion.
Cao Cao was very curious. Jingxuan Pavilion experienced a fire last night.
Can the fifth son, Cao Xiong, complete the weapon competition with Hao Zhao as scheduled?
He touched the two gambling house credentials in his cuffs.
The first one was bet by Xu Chu yesterday afternoon, a total of 20 yuan, and the odds were [-] to [-]!
The other one was bet as soon as the casino opened this morning. It was also 20 yuan, and the odds increased to [-]:[-].
The casino's information is very timely!
A fire destroyed Cao Xiong's siege equipment, they must have known about it a long time ago, right?
During the meeting, Liu Ye was in a good mood.
I made a report on the progress of the manufacturing of the siege equipment in the workshop in the near future!
More optimistic than Cao Cao expected.
Cao Cao suddenly thought of something, and asked Liu Ye: "A few days ago, I ordered 'Cang Cao Pian' to manufacture a siege equipment suitable for attacking Xiangyang. Is Cang Cao Ping ready?"
Cao Cao blurted out these words, and all the ministers began to discuss in low voices!
Recently, there has been a lot of rumors about the competition between Cao Xiong, the fifth son of Yecheng, and the "genius carpenter" Hao Zhao.
Which of these ministers doesn't know?
Cao Cao's sentence is asking knowingly.It is to elicit the matter of the equipment competition.
Liu Ye didn't expect Cao Cao to care so much about this matter.
This was Cao Sikong's second question in three days.
Thinking of this, Liu Ye smiled.
"Not surprisingly, this siege equipment has been made now! There are only two, one made by the fifth son Cao Xiong, and the other made by Hao Zhao of the workshop."
Liu Ye deliberately mentioned that Cao Xiong and Hao Zhao made siege equipment separately.
He didn't know that the equipment made by the fifth son Cao Xiong was destroyed by a fire last night.
This intentional proposal was just to whet everyone's appetite. When they saw the scorched weapon of the Fifth Young Master, it was inevitable that Cao Cao and all his ministers would be extremely disappointed in Cao Xiong!
The position in charge of the workshop is taken back as a matter of course.
Cao Cao looked back at the ministers and said with great interest: "Since it is a new siege tool, why don't you let me find out what it is? To tell you the truth, I will place a heavy bet on it!"
Hearing this, Xiahoudun laughed "haha", "I also suppressed a lot!"
All the ministers also showed their gambling certificates one after another, "I have a lot to wait for!"
For a moment, the entire hall, all the ministers laughed.
During the Three Kingdoms period, entertainment measures were relatively scarce, and this group of civil servants and military generals were not keen on singing on the stage.
Apart from the brothel, the only thing left to them to have some fun is the gambling house!
This time the casino opened with a high profile!
The odds are one high and one low!
Instead, the appetite of the entire Ye city was drenched, not only Cao Cao's civil servants and generals, but even the high-ranking officials and nobles in the entire Ye city also bet one after another.
It's just that except for Cao Cao and a few, most of them suppressed Hao Zhao.
After all, Hao Zhao bears the aura of "Genius Carpenter" and was awarded "Craftsman Order".
During the Northern Expedition, the catapult was improved into a Thunderbolt chariot, which made a great contribution!
Nowadays, in the whole of the north, when it comes to carpenters, Luban is not the first thing that comes to mind!But this Hao Zhao!
The fifth son, Cao Xiong, doesn't have any outstanding works. To challenge Hao Zhao, isn't this hitting a stone with an egg?
Because of this mentality, Hao Zhao's odds are getting lower and lower. Last night, they even dropped to 1:1.2. It fell on Hao Zhao.
The low odds are a bit low, but this is equivalent to picking up money!
Steady profit without losing!
Chapter 134
When Cao Cao brought up this topic, all the ministers asked privately to see who was more pressing?Who pressed earlier?
The more you press, the sooner you press, in their opinion, the better their vision, the more they will make a lot of money.
For a while, the officials lost interest in this meeting.
Cao Cao laughed and called all the officials to follow him to the workshop!From Liu Ye's mouth, it is known that the inspection of the results is carried out in the workshop.
****
Yecheng, inside the workshop!
Hao Zhao ordered the young carpenters to move out the siege equipment he developed.
high!
The most intuitive feeling for people is the word "high"
It's just that the whole body of the instrument is completely covered by a big cloth covering the sky.
It's kind of mysterious.
Hao Zhao is very confident in the device he made.
Even the thunderbolt chariot that Hao Zhao improved before, in his opinion, is not as suitable as this siege equipment!
But Hao Zhao kept his eyes fixed on the gate of the studio.
He is waiting!
The siege equipment made by the fifth son Cao Xiong.
For this fifth son, for some reason, Hao Zhao always felt a little unfathomable.
It is for this reason that Hao Zhao is very curious about the siege equipment made by the fifth son Cao Xiong.
At the same time, some young carpenters in the workshop were talking loudly.
"I heard that last night, a fire broke out in the Fifth Young Master's Pavilion, and the equipment he made was burned to ashes!"
"Haha, as soon as I heard about it last night, I ran to the casino and bet all my wealth on our genius 'Hao Zhao'! This is a guaranteed profit."
"Then why don't you invite us to drink flower wine?"
"Haha, this is natural!"
After all, he is a young carpenter, and he is more nostalgic for Fireworks and Liuxiang.
Unexpectedly, these words reached Hao Zhao's ears, and his complexion suddenly darkened.
"What are you talking about? Why did the good siege equipment turn into ashes?"
The carpenters did not expect Hao Zhao to be so angry.
A carpenter grinned and complained: "It's none of our business, it's his own lack of understanding! Why are you so angry?"
Another carpenter patted Hao Zhao on the back: "Calm down, it must be because the kid didn't make it, and set it on fire on purpose. He just gave up for an excuse! Otherwise, it's already this hour, why not?" Come to the workshop?"
Hao Zhao sighed, thinking that he was secretly happy to meet an evenly matched opponent.
Unexpectedly, such an accident happened.
Shaking his head, he felt a little regretful that the siege machine he had made with all his strength for this competition had no opponent!
lonely!The loneliness of winning without a fight came to my mind for a while.
Obsessed with carpentry, he just felt that it wasn't worth it to put in so much effort for such an opponent!
While sighing, the door of the workshop suddenly opened, and Hao Zhao's spirit was lifted. He thought it was Cao Xiong who had come, and he was still looking forward to it.
It's just that Cao Xiong didn't wait.
