Considering that Bing'er had just arrived, Ouyang Shuo did not plan to let her live in the East Courtyard immediately. Instead, he prepared a room for her in the East Courtyard.
For the whole morning, Ouyang Shuo did nothing but stroll around Shanhai County with Bing'er. The bustling streets, the beautiful horses, and the ferocious Nian beasts were all novel to the little girl.
Whether it was the commoners or the officials of the Lord's Mansion, they were all happy that their Lord suddenly had a younger sister. This proved that their Lord had a family inheritance, which was very important in ancient times.
Ouyang Shuo arranged for Zi Su to stay with Bing'er to take care of her daily life. On Ouyang Shuo's side, only Ban Xia was left. Anyway, he did not need to serve her much.
In the afternoon, Zi Su accompanied Bing'er to continue touring Shanhai County.
Ouyang Shuo returned to his office and began to deal with the day's government affairs.
He picked up an official document, which was submitted by Xu Kun, the chief officer of the weapons workshop. In the document, Xu Kun mentioned that the weapons workshop had successfully forged a lance by combining the Tang knife and spear craftsmanship.
Among the long weapons, the spear was the earliest. After the chariot appeared, it evolved into a spear so that the soldiers could attack horizontally from the chariot. After the appearance of the warhorse, especially after the invention of the stirrup, the cavalry became popular. By combining the advantages of the spear and the spear, it slowly evolved into the main weapon of the cavalry — the halberd.
After the appearance of heavy armor, especially iron armor, the main weapon of the cavalry changed from the halberd to the lance in order to increase the armor penetration ability. The shape of the lance was the same as the spear. It could be called the heavy version of the spear.
The precious part of the lance was the lance's shaft. The superior lance was usually made of Tuo wood. It was a pity that such precious wood could not be found in Shanhai County or Pool Town.
With the lance, the heavy cavalry of Shanhai County was finally fully equipped. What they lacked now was a lance instructor to teach the cavalry how to use the lance.
At the mention of this, Ouyang Shuo immediately thought of Qin Qiong from Dragon Seeking Town.
Ouyang Shuo did not waste any time and immediately shouted in the alliance channel, "Calling Dragon Seeking Town."
"Boss, what's the matter?" Dragon Seeking Town responded immediately.
"Cough, let me borrow your Qin Qiong. We can discuss the terms."
"Wow, here comes the opportunity to slaughter the rich." The Siege Lion suddenly came out.
"Boss, Qin Qiong is the only general in my territory. I can't be at ease without him."
As expected, the Dragon Seeking Acupoint Technique was intentionally raising the stakes. Ouyang Shuo did not want to follow his rhythm, so he directly stated his price: "For every day of renting, I will pay ten Tang sabers, and the rental period is not less than half a month."
According to Ouyang Shuo's quoted price, one Tang Dao was 5 gold coins, so 10 of them would be 50 gold coins. The service fee was definitely enough. If he was still not satisfied with the Dragon Seeking Acupoints, then he would be too greedy.
"Deal!" In reality, this had already far exceeded the expectations of the Dragon Seeking Acupuncture Point.
"Wow, Xun Long, you've made a fortune. Boss, my family's Ju Sheng can also be rented out, there's a 20% discount. "The Siege Lion was extremely envious and sold out his advisor like a beast.
"What's the point of renting your Ju Sheng? You should transfer it to me. Just name the price," Ouyang Shuo joked.
"Hehe, Ju Sheng is not for sale." The Siege Lion did not lose its rationality.
"Xun Long, tell Qin Qiong to teleport over now. It'll be one day," Ouyang Shuo shouted.
"No problem, I'll go find him now." Dragon Seeking Acupuncture Point replied immediately.
Ouyang Shuo stood up and left the mansion, preparing to go to the teleportation circle to wait for Qin Qiong.
As expected, Qin Qiong teleported over in less than ten minutes. "Greetings, Lord Wuyi!"
"Thank you, General Qin. I'm sure your master has already told me the purpose of inviting the general here? "
"Yes, he has already told me to teach your army how to use the lance."
"Alright, please follow me, General."
"Yes!"
Ouyang Shuo brought Qin Qiong to the military division and handed him over to Ge Hongliang. "Division Leader Ge, I'll leave General Qin to you. Tomorrow, you will accompany General Qin to the northern barracks. He told Lin Yi that he had to make sure that all the soldiers were able to use the lance. Those who perform well will be promoted to platoon leaders. "
"Understood!"
Ouyang Shuo turned and left the division, returning to the mansion and bumping into Ying You.
"Brother, the profits from the Wolf Mountain Mines and Northwind Saltworks have been collected, a total of 7600 gold coins."
Ouyang Shuo nodded. "How much does the finance division need this month?"
"This month's revenue is 2000 gold coins, and we'll need at least 3000 more in order to maintain our normal expenses." Ying You said apologetically.
"It's already not bad." Ouyang Shuo comforted. "How about this, leave 3600 gold coins for the finance division, and give me the remaining 4000."
"Okay."
Taking these gold coins, Ouyang Shuo went to the market and spent 1800 gold coins to buy the blueprints of the teahouse, the cosmetics shop, the Earth Temple, and the prison. In addition, he also bought the blueprints of the county granary and the private school.
Another batch of gold-class manuals appeared in the market, and Ouyang Shuo ate them all. There were 24 of them in total, spending 1200 gold coins. In addition to the 76 he bought last time, Ouyang Shuo had a total of 100 gold-class manuals in his storage pouch. These manuals would rapidly increase in value after seven months.
Ouyang Shuo didn't dare use the remaining 1000 gold coins, keeping it for emergencies.
After returning to his office, Ouyang Shuo gave the building blueprints to Bai Nanpu and asked him to pass them to the construction division. The Shanhai County plan submitted by the Construction Department had already been approved by Ouyang Shuo. Hence, there was no need for Ouyang Shuo to instruct the Construction Department on where the infrastructure should be built.
After the plan was approved, the construction of the second wall began. In order to save time, the territory was also being renovated at the same time. All the buildings would be moved according to the new plan. Just the renovation of these buildings was estimated to cost 500 gold coins, which was why Ouyang Shuo kept 1000 gold coins for emergencies.
With the military strength of Shanhai County and the cleanup operation being carried out by the Mixed Brigade, these buildings were moved to the outside of the first city wall. Without the protection of the city wall for the time being, there was no need to worry about their safety.
The bandits didn't have the guts or the strength to attack Shanhai County at this time.
At six in the evening, Ouyang Shuo went to his office to read.
Bing'er suddenly ran in and giggled. "Big Brother, it's time to get off work and eat."
"Okay!" Ouyang Shuo picked her up and pinched her little nose. "Darling, did you have fun this afternoon?" He asked as he walked towards the backyard.
"Yes, Big Brother, I had fun here."
"Then, was he naughty?"
"Bing'er is very obedient. You can ask Sister Zisu. And Sister Qing, she even measured Bing'er's body and said she would make beautiful clothes for Bing'er. " The little girl had become familiar with Zisu and Qing 'er in just one afternoon. She was really a silly girl who wasn't afraid of strangers.
When he returned to the backyard, Zisu had already prepared dinner. Ying You and Qing 'er had also returned. Seeing Ouyang Shuo come in with Bing'er in his arms, everyone looked at each other and smiled.
After dinner, Ouyang Shuo took Bing'er to her room and asked Zisu to go out first. Then he told Bing'er how to go offline. After confirming that Bing'er had gone offline, Ouyang Shuo returned to his room and went offline.
After going offline, Ouyang Shuo rushed to Bing'er's room. He saw that the little lass had already opened the game capsule through voice control and climbed out of the game capsule.
"Darling, are you sleepy?"
"Yes, a little." Having just come out of the game, Bing'er was still a little confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Then go brush your teeth first. Big Brother will make you breakfast. After breakfast, go back to your room and sleep, okay? "Ouyang Shuo said.
"Okay, I will listen to Big Brother."
Needless to say, the breakfast shop downstairs was closed. Ouyang Shuo could only cook two bowls of noodles and put two eggs on it.
After Bing'er finished her breakfast and went back to her room to sleep, Ouyang Shuo came to the living room and started his routine. He had decided that from today onwards, he would not go out at all. He would not even go jogging. He would just train in his room.
After warming up, Ouyang Shuo took a hot shower and went back to his room to practice Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor.
Bing'er woke up at 11 in the morning.
Because she didn't need to go to school and couldn't go out to play, the little girl could only stay in the living room to watch cartoons. Fortunately, Big Brother was accompanying her, so it wasn't boring.
At noon, the siblings had a simple lunch. At 2 in the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo started to help Bing'er with her revision in place of the teacher. At 4 in the afternoon, Bing'er started to do her homework. Ouyang Shuo accompanied her by turning on the optical computer, browsing the forum, or searching for information.
Such a schedule would become the siblings' daily routine for the next month.
At 5 in the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo finally received a call from Sun Xiaoyue.
Ouyang Shuo got up, left Bing'er's bedroom, and went to the living room. "How was it? Did everything go smoothly?"
"Yes, I reached home yesterday afternoon. This morning, I told my grandpa about you. Grandpa was very interested and wanted to call you, "Sun Xiaoyue said on the other end of the phone.
"Okay."
In the video, an old man in his sixties appeared. He had a head full of white hair, but his face was rosy without any wrinkles. He looked very energetic.
"Hello grandpa, I'm Ouyang Shuo."
"Hello, young man. Thank you for taking care of my granddaughter." The old man was quite polite.
"No way. I'm good friends with Xiaoyue."
"Good, good. Young people should be like this." The old man was also a very practical person. After a brief greeting, he went straight to the topic. "I heard from Xiaoyue that an old man like me also has something to do in the game?"
Ouyang Shuo could understand the old man's feelings. These scientists of the older generation had devoted most of their lives to their own fields of scientific research, working tirelessly and diligently.
What they cared about the most was their own research career. If they were to get rid of it all at once, they would definitely not be used to it. Now that they heard that they could continue their career in the game, they were naturally very concerned.
"Yes. Grandpa, in the game, as long as there is a suitable platform, scientists like you will have a lot of achievements. "Ouyang Shuo said with a smile.
"Good, good, good. We old buddies just can't sit still. If we really have to raise flowers and birds in the game, I really can't get used to that kind of life." The old man was very happy.
"Grandpa, you can call all your old friends. The more the better. Even if they don't have a clear attitude, they can leave their contact information. "Ouyang Shuo said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, grandpa." Ouyang Shuo said at the end. (To be continued.)
