Chapter 79: Ye Chi’s vicious plan and the clan conflict he instigated!

The next day, at dawn, the morning glow illuminated the sky. Li Si was worried and hurried to Ye Chi's residence.

When Ye Chi heard the purpose of his visit, he invited him into the inner hall and asked them to sit down as host and guest.

Li Si looked solemn as he recounted his experiences of the past few days. He said that the clansmen either pretended to be sick and did not go out, or found other excuses to travel far away, and no one was willing to respond to the order to extend his favor.

He said angrily: "How despicable that they dared to defy your Majesty's will!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chi just smiled and said nothing, looking quite calm.

Seeing this, Li Si became more and more anxious, and hurriedly urged: "Since Ye Qing knows, why don't you teach me? This matter cannot be delayed. If we fail to complete the task entrusted by His Majesty, we will be severely punished! ”

Ye Chi smiled calmly and said, "Prime Minister Li, please be patient. There is a solution to this problem, but the time has not come yet. It is useless to rush. Just wait for good news. There will be a turning point soon!"

Li Si was puzzled, but suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he asked, "What exactly does Ye Qing mean? Do you have a brilliant plan in mind?!"

Ye Chi smiled and shook his head, slowly saying: "It can't be called a brilliant plan, but some things are beyond human control. Li Xiang, go home and wait patiently. I believe that good news will come soon! !"

Although Li Si was full of doubts, seeing Ye Chi's determined expression and his words seemed to have deep meaning, he had to suppress his anxiety and stood up to say goodbye.

He returned home and thought over and over what Ye Chi had said, but he still couldn't understand it.

However, now that things have come to this, there is nothing else to do except wait!

Although Ye Chi had anticipated this beforehand, he already knew it clearly in his heart.

The First Emperor's intention was simply to use him to take action against the clan!

However, Ye Chi is not an ordinary person. If he is not absolutely sure, how can he easily take on such an important task?

At this moment, he was in his mansion, sitting alone, thinking and plotting silently, with a plan in his mind.

He muttered to himself, "According to the time, the Minister of Works should have started developing artillery and other things, right?"

His words revealed a deep insight into the current situation and a clear plan for the future.

He knew very well that this action was of great importance and any mistake would cause fierce backlash from the clans.

However, he also believed that as long as he was fully prepared and planned carefully, he would be able to succeed in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, a hint of determination flashed in Ye Chi's eyes. He knew that he had a heavy responsibility and could not slack off in the slightest.

So he put aside his distracting thoughts and began to concentrate on planning his next move.

……

These days, Ye Chi was thinking about the matter of becoming the Shaofu, and he couldn't help but go to investigate in person.

The next day, at the first light of dawn, the morning glow illuminated the sky. Ye Chi was already dressed in light clothes and set out on the road to the Ministry of Works.

Wherever his heart is, wherever his steps go, that place where craftsmen gather and where brilliant skills are displayed, attracts his steps like a magnet.

The gate of the Shaofu Mansion is majestic and has an ancient charm.

Ye Chi stepped in lightly, and suddenly, he heard crisp and pleasant knocking sounds, ding ding dang dang, like the sound of nature.

The air was filled with the scent of anvil and fire, carrying a unique richness and warmth that seemed to ignite the passion and desire in people's hearts!

Ye Chi took a deep breath, feeling the familiar and friendly breath, and a hot light flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't hide his excitement, and walked quickly to a busy place! "The master is here!" When the craftsmen saw that it was Ye Chi, they stopped their work and saluted to greet him.

Ye Chi waved his sleeves lightly and gestured with a smile to everyone not to be so polite, but his eyes, like shining golden torches, were fixed on the brand new curved plows.

The curved plow before us is so ingeniously crafted and exquisitely designed that it is breathtaking.

Its lines are elegant and smooth, as if the most dynamic rhythm between heaven and earth is condensed on this plow. It has both the heaviness of farming and the lightness of craftsmanship!
Seeing Ye Chi so focused, the craftsmen did not dare to disturb him. They just waited quietly by the side, awaiting his comments.

Ye Chi slowly stretched out his hand along the outline of the curved plow, lightly touched it with his fingertips, and felt the cold and hard touch of the plow body.

His eyes were shining with excitement and approval, as if he had already seen the scene of the curved plow galloping across the fields!
"Is this your newly made curved plow?" Ye Chi asked, pointing at one of them.

"That's right!" The chief craftsman replied nervously, "This plow uses the curved shaft design given by the adults. After our testing, we found that it is indeed more labor-saving and durable than the old plowshare. It can also cultivate deeply and carefully, greatly improving farming efficiency..."

Ye Chi was overjoyed when he heard this, and bent over to examine the curved plow carefully.

He looked closely at the curved part and saw that it bent freely and smoothly, and it was obviously carefully polished.

"Wonderful! Wonderful!" Ye Chi finally broke the silence and exclaimed, "This plow is so skillfully made, it is a great blessing for farmers all over the world! With the help of this magical tool, why worry about the poor harvest and the people's unrest?"

Upon hearing this, all the craftsmen showed joy on their faces. A heavy stone in their hearts was finally put down, for they knew that their hard work had been recognized in the best way.

Ye Chi continued to look at the curved plow, as if he wanted to draw more inspiration and strength from every detail.

After that, Ye Chifu asked the craftsmen in detail about the difficulties encountered in the manufacturing process of the curved plow, as well as various improvement measures.

When all the craftsmen heard this, they all told their stories with all their heart, without hiding anything, and their words revealed their love and dedication to their craft.

As Ye Chi listened, he nodded frequently to show his approval.

After the craftsmen finished speaking, he smiled and said, "You all have superb skills and ingenuity. You are truly role models for craftsmen all over the world. It is a great honor to have your help!"

When the craftsmen heard his words, they all looked happy and felt a sense of pride in their hearts.

So, everyone responded in unison and vowed to do their best to help Ye Chi!

Ye Chi felt very relieved when he saw this.

The strength of the Qin craftsmen is unquestionable.

Just relying on a simple design pattern of his is enough to make it look like this!
The wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated!

But Li Si, when he heard that Ye Chi frequently visited the Ministry of Works, his heart was burning with anxiety, and his feelings were beyond words.

I originally thought that Ye Chi would devote himself to the implementation of the Enfeoffment Order, but unexpectedly, Ye Chi seemed to be completely unconcerned about the matter!
On the contrary, he had a special liking for the Minister of Works and went there every day, staying there for half a day!
Li Si didn't understand what he meant and could only speculate secretly what Ye Chi's intention was.

However, after thinking about it, Li Si still couldn't figure it out.

He was extremely anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, running around in circles.

The heavy responsibility entrusted by Your Majesty is like a mountain pressing down on one's head. Li Si dare not slack off in the slightest.

But now Ye Chi's behavior made him feel at a loss and he didn't know what to do.

Li Si sighed deeply and secretly blamed Ye Chi for not understanding his worries.

However, now that things have come to this, he can only accept the reality and wait for Ye Chi to return before making any plans.
