Under Yang Yun's hosting, the workshop officially started construction and operation two days later, but the initial manufacturing capacity is really unsatisfactory, which is also related to the shortage of raw materials.

On the same day, the envoy sent by the Jiannan Jiedushi arrived from Yizhou to Shifang County.

The magistrate of Su County sent someone to invite Yang Yun to see him. In the past few days, Yang Yun has learned about the current situation in the Tang Dynasty and Jiannan Road.

After Li Longji ascended the throne, he first appointed Yao Chong and Song Jing as prime ministers, and later used Zhang Jiazhen, Zhang Shuo, Li Yuanhong and Du Xian as prime ministers. They each had their own strengths and were loyal to their duties, making the government full of vitality. Moreover, Li Longji was able to accept advice at this time, so his politics was clear and his political situation was stable.

In terms of military affairs, the imperial court in the early Tang Dynasty divided the Grand General Manager or General Manager in the central prefecture towns, in charge of military affairs. In the seventh year of Wude, the Grand General Manager was changed to Grand General Manager, and the General Manager was appointed as the Grand General Office, the Grand General Office, which was in charge of military affairs of several states or dozens of states. In the second year of Yifeng, Emperor Gaozong appointed Liu Rengui as the governor of Taohe and led a large army to defend against Tubo. Before this, whenever there was war, the army was collected and the generals were temporarily appointed. After the war, the generals returned to the court and did not station in a certain area for a long time. Starting from Liu Rengui, the generals held a precedent for heavy troops to be stationed in the border areas for a long time.

In the first year of Jingyun of the Emperor Ruizong, the court appointed Xue Ne, the governor of Youzhou as the general of the left Wuwei Guard and the governor of Youzhou. In the second year of Jingyun, He Bayansi was appointed as the governor of Liangzhou and was appointed as the governor of Hexi. The name of the governor of Jiedu was officially established.

Since the Kaiyuan period, almost all important military areas along the border of the northwestern Tang Dynasty were equipped with Jiedu. Jiedu usually served as the manager, support, land management, transportation, and supervision of the territory under its jurisdiction. As a result, its power became increasingly heavy, and its status gradually surpassed the prefectures and counties and other affairs in its jurisdiction. Local administrative divisions actually changed from prefectures and counties to three-level systems.

In the 21st year of Kaiyuan, that is, the year Yang Yun came to the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji divided the Tang Dynasty into fifteen roads, each of which was appointed to interview envoys, in charge of the inspection of criminal prisons and supervision prefectures and county officials, and had the power to engage in cheap work.

The current Jiannan Jiedushi is named Wang Yu. Before taking up this position, he was one of the nine ministers in the court and General Zuo Jinwu. He was in a high position and powerful position. He also served as the interview envoy of Jiannandao, and he was truly powerful in military and political power.

It should be noted that the governor and interview are all entrusted positions. The official offices call them the envoy and shogunate respectively, and their subordinates are called the entrusted positions. Among them, the entrusted positions of the entrusted positions include deputy envoys, subordinate envoys, judges, clerks, prosecutors, and search officials. The envoy sent by Wang Yu this time was Sun Deneng, the deputy envoy of Jiannandao.

Yang Yun met Sun Deneng in the county yamen.

This is a burly and slightly rich middle-aged man with fair skin and a hooked nose, giving people a sinister and deceitful feeling.

Since meeting County Magistrate Su, Sun Deneng has never seen Yang Yun in person.

When he arrived at the back hall of the county government office, Sun Deneng said to County Magistrate Su without hesitation: "Sir Jie has read your letter. I will send you a message to you and ask you to recruit local civilians and cooperate with the 1,000 government troops sent from Hanzhou to pacify the Southern Barbarians within the year."

When the Magistrate Su County was shocked when he heard this, "The barbarians were scattered in the states and counties in the western part of Jiannan Road, and they were cruel and arrogant. How can they be pacified in a short period of time?"

Sun Deneng said coldly: "Do you dare to violate the order of the commander of the ritual?

County Magistrate Su's face was pale and felt uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly. It was obvious that he skipped the governor of Hanzhou and the governor of Jiannan, Wang Yu, who committed crimes for some people, and he was treated like this. He thought he had made great contributions, but he only waited for promotion and wealth to realize that he had taken a chore.

Sun Deneng glanced at Yang Yun: "Didn't you say there is a master to help? Jieshuai has approved that you can continue to hire this master. As for military supplies, the official will send someone to contact you, but you still need to raise the big head by yourself."

County Magistrate Su was in tears.

Sun Deneng looked full of disdain and waved his sleeves impatiently: "I have only stayed in Shifang for one day and left early tomorrow morning. If there is something important to me, I need to tell Jieshuai, hurry up and say it... Jieshuai has been very busy recently and doesn't like to listen to the nagging people below. As for what little real person you are talking about? Haha."

At the end, Sun Deneng glanced at Yang Yun again, and without even asking about Yang Yun's ability, he left.

Yang Yun couldn't talk to Sun De.

He could see that Sun Deneng looked down on him at all, or classified him as a liar in the world. After all, not everyone in the court believed in Taoism and the like. It was said in the Analects of Confucius that Zi Bu said that he was strange and powerful.

County Magistrate Su quickly went out to see him off. After a long time, he returned to the back hall and said to Yang Yun with some embarrassment: "Little Zhenren, the general of Jie asked me to lead troops to pacify the barbarians around Hanzhou, but now it is not only lacking in personnel, but also without weapons and supplies. Do you think...?"

Yang Yun spread his hands: "I will take action if I can help, but I can't help with things in a fair manner."

County Magistrate Su pulled Yang Yun's sleeve: "Without the little real person helping me, how can I be a good official? I thought the court would reward him, but who knew... Alas! Isn't this asking for trouble?"

Yang Yun couldn't help but feel pitiful for the magistrate Su County, but he understood some truths that any world does not mean that it is necessary to be valued if you have the ability or make contributions. If you go against the will of those in power, you will make you feel better? You magistrate Su County is just suffering because you don't know what you know. No wonder others.

County Magistrate Su looked eager: "If the teacher can come to help, Pingman must be hopeful. I don't know how to visit the immortal master and ask him to come out of the mountain?"

Yang Yun thought that County Magistrate Su had realized the reality, but then he realized that the other party was arrogant and immediately refused indifferently: "Master travels around the world and lives in a place without a fixed place. It is hard to say whether to return to Shu... County Magistrate Su should not expect to invite Master."

County Magistrate Su did not doubt what Yang Yun said, and looked disappointed: "The official asked the general Jie to send more troops to cooperate with the polite barbarians with elite soldiers and generals. I also troubled Xiao Zhenren to help create more talismans these days, and I am very grateful."

...

...

Yang Yun quickly left the county government.

He knew that if he didn't leave, he might be embarrassed and did something again. At this moment, County Magistrate Su was already in a hurry to seek medical treatment.

When they returned to the workshop, Lin Geng and others were preparing materials in full swing. When they saw Yang Yun coming back, they all surrounded him. At this time, a large number of civilians were still gathering in the yard.

"Little Zhenren, County Magistrate Hu said, these are all invited to help you. If you don't have enough people, just give me instructions." Lin Geng said with a smile.

Yang Yun said: "Just deliver the materials fully prepared, there are not many people here. The things made cannot be stored casually, they must be kept away from the lights. Once ignited, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Lin Geng smiled and said, "The County Magistrate Hu had long thought that an independent warehouse had been opened to the west? No fires were allowed around the warehouse, and no one could afford to take care of any problems."

That night, Yang Yun mixed all the existing materials into gunpowder and asked Lin Geng to take people to the warehouse.

He stayed in the workshop yard, looked up at the starry sky when he had nothing to do, and thought in his mind how to survive after leaving Shifang County.

He already intends to leave Shifang as soon as possible.

Now the Jiannan Jiedushi intends to let the Shifang County Magistrate pacify the Southern Barbarians, but the Su County Magistrate does not have much ability and will definitely come to harass him when the time comes, which is contrary to his original intention of making money as soon as possible.

"I have that time, why not go to Luoyang to find Yang Yuhuan earlier."

"Time doesn't wait for anyone. If Yang Yuhuan meets Shou Wang Li Mao, there will be few places where I can provide her with help, and she will not rely too much on me."

"I don't have much money on my body, so it's difficult to bring those silk cloths on the road. Gold and silver are valuables these days, so it's hard to see in this small place in Shifang. It would be great if I had something that was both valuable and lightweight with me."

Yang Yun was very depressed. The only thing he could take away now was the amount of money he sent by County Magistrate Su, which was at most a waste of money. When he arrived in Luoyang, he had to play another gong and drum. He had to consider starting a second business within a few days after he arrived in the Tang Dynasty.

"It's better to get more connections and resources before leaving. If it really doesn't work, I will really help them to triumph the Southern Barbarians... Isn't it just some uncivilized aliens? Isn't it good to recruit security?"

"But if the Manzi is not good enough, what should I do if I take my own life into it? Then be reincarnated as a human being?"

Yang Yun stood up and walked back and forth in the yard for two rounds, but he still couldn't make up his mind. He always felt that he couldn't walk too hastily, as if something had not been done.
Chapter completed!
