"Who comes first?"

In front of the road paved with hot coals, Zhao Xu looked at fifteen or six young men. ReadМ

"I……"

The same young man came out, and Zhou Yi found out his name was Xu Hark.

And his father's name is Xu Yuan.

Standing in front of the road of burning coals, he shouted to take courage.

Although he showed impressive courage, he also understood the power of charcoal.

Gritting his teeth, he took off his straw sandals, closed his eyes and walked over the hot coals.

When he came to the end of the road, he found that although the soles of his feet were a little hot, they were not burned.

"..."

Tsui Hark looked at Liu Jun with confusion.

"Passed, who is next?" Liu Jun did not explain.

Tsui Hark scratched his head and didn't dare to ask. He just stood aside and said nothing.

"Is this okay? It's amazing."

"Tsu Hark is a hunter. He runs around in the mountains all day long. Of course he is very good."

"..."

The slaves knew each other well, whispered to each other, and looked at each other with admiration.

"I come!"

"I'm coming too!"

"..."

With the first person, many young people took courage and took a step forward.

Xu Yuan originally wanted to go up second, but he was overtaken first, so he had to let them go.

"Well, if you have the guts, come one by one." Zhao Xu's eyes turned into slits as he smiled.

People in intelligence agencies are bound to perform very dangerous missions on a regular basis.

If you don’t have the courage, how can you take on this important task?

This is also the purpose of this test.

The second young man is about the same age as Tsui Hark.

Arriving at Huotan Road first, he said to Zhao Xu, "Your Highness, the common man's name is Chai Wu."

After saying that, he yelled the same and ran across the hot coal road.

Like Tsui Hark, he was stunned when he thought his foot was burned.

Then for the third and fourth time, all the people who signed up did not hesitate and crossed Fotan Road.

"Yes, you are all good people. From now on, you will be directly under my jurisdiction and only responsible to me. Do you understand?" Zhao Xu said loudly.

Intelligence agencies are the eyes of one power.

Naturally, such an institution must be controlled by oneself.

Otherwise, I would still be blind.

"Yes, Your Highness." The sixteen young men shouted.

Zhao Xu turned to Zhou Yi at this time.

Now that Liu Fu has become the king's master, he is busy with government affairs every day.

He almost became half of the butler of the palace, and he was asked to handle some chores.

"Don't mention this to anyone. Just say that they are the personal followers recruited by the king. Also, clean up the concierge in front of the east courtyard and let them move in." Zhao Xu ordered.

Zhou Yi nodded, and then asked doubtfully: "Your Highness, how come it's okay for them to step on this hot coal?"

Liu Jun smiled mysteriously, "Just run over and try it when your feet are wet and you will know."

In fact, this trick just uses some physical principles.

Zhao Xu actually asked them to run to make their soles sweat.

After their sweaty feet touch the hot coals.

The evaporation of sweat creates a thin layer of vapor between the soles of your feet and the charcoal.

As long as you pass quickly, your feet will be burned, but it won't be scorched.

Zhou Yi was dubious. He came to Huotan, took off his shoes, dipped them in water, and ran over quickly.

At this time, he felt that the soles of his feet were slightly warm, but not painful at all, and he couldn't help but feel more and more miraculous.

Zhao Xu told him the principle at this time, and Zhou Yi suddenly understood.

After understanding this matter, Zhou Yi led the 16 selected people to leave and came back not long after.

In addition to these sixteen people, there are many slaves and maids waiting for distribution.

Zhao Xu gathered the remaining slaves together again.

People are different. Some people are suitable for military service, while others are suitable for scientific research.

This is a different talent for everyone.

Therefore, he did not look down on the remaining slaves.

They naturally have their own role.

As the saying goes, there are no useless people, only useful people misplaced.

For example, it is absolutely a waste for a technical talent like a carpenter to engage in intelligence work.

"Who among you is a carpenter and who is a blacksmith? Anyone with other skills should come forward." Zhao Xu asked.

After his words fell, the three hundred people quickly divided into four teams.

Twenty carpenters formed a pile, nine blacksmiths formed a pile, and sixteen potters formed a pile.

The remaining women did not move. After all, in ancient times they only knew how to weave.

After figuring this out, Zhao Xu had some thoughts in mind.

Now, he has initially taken control of Yancheng.

The next step is to build high walls and accumulate supplies to cope with the upcoming crisis.

After all, compared to the Zhang family, Beidi and Xiliang are the biggest enemies of Yan County and even Yanzhou.

He takes a longer view.

If you want to keep your own Yanjun, you must use the technology in your mind to seize the opportunity from now on.

"Send the girls to the palace of the prince and let them work as female workers every day." Zhao Xu said.

These women will still be of great use in the future, but not now.

Then he added: "In the west courtyard, the carpenters, blacksmiths and potters all gave them a separate courtyard and sent some guards to guard it. They were not allowed to move around at will."

The craftsman looked a little panicked after hearing this.

They thought they were going to be imprisoned.

Zhao Xu noticed and smiled, "Don't be nervous, I am not imprisoning you, but to protect you and keep the palace's skills secret. When Yan County is secure in the future, I will give you greater freedom."

The craftsmen breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't care whether they could come and go freely.

The world is difficult, and it is a blessing to be able to live with food and clothing.

So he said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

The women and craftsmen have been arranged, and there are nearly a hundred young and strong men left.

These can only do chores.

He asked Zhou Yi to give them a separate courtyard.

At the same time, he let the three spies from the wealthy families live with them without leaving any trace.

After deciding this matter, Zhao Xu asked everyone to go back, leaving only the potters and taking them to the middle courtyard.

The potters were a little flustered, not knowing what the King of Yan wanted them to do.

At this time, the King of Yan pointed in a direction and asked, "You should be able to make this thing."

An old potter walked into the house, walked around the distiller, looked at it for a while, and said, "Your Highness, how difficult is this? Make a clay mold and burn it overnight."

"Really? In this case, I am relieved." Zhao Xu nodded, and the old craftsman's face was full of confidence, not like bragging.

In his opinion, the ancients' ceramics and woodworking techniques are beyond reproach, absolutely world-class.

Through the hands of craftsmen, they made all kinds of complex pottery.

The structure of the distiller is very simple, not much more complicated than ordinary pottery.

"I dare to guarantee it with my life." The old craftsman patted his chest and guaranteed.

In his short life, this is the first time he has seen such a noble person as the prince.

People become wiser with age. If he can win the trust of the prince, his future life will be comfortable.

"Good." Zhao Xu laughed.

In this way, mass production of his wine-making artifact is not a problem.
