Qin Li walked slowly on the streets of Yuejing. At this time, he had already changed his appearance and became a real local person in Yuejing. He knew very well that his disappearance would inevitably attract the attention of the Ministry of State Security of the Ming Dynasty, and even deduced his true identity bit by bit. But as Qianmian was worried, it was difficult to find a person in a big city with a population of millions. So Qin Li was not worried that he would be chased by people from the Ministry of State Security of the Ming Dynasty. What he needed was just a time difference.

The Ministry of State Security of the Ming Dynasty, of course, was very powerful in the past. They had the ability to track themselves along some traces they had to leave behind, but they only needed to be one step faster forever, so they could only follow behind their butts and smell the smell.

Of course, danger exists. The safest way is to go back to Changning with Zhou Qiu, but in this way, if you want to enter Yuejing again, it will be not so easy to hear. During the trip to Qinghe, he smelled a strong crisis. Everything he saw in front of him completely overturned his long-standing perception. These days, as soon as he closed his eyes, he saw the rumbling machine and rows of flying shuttles flying all over the sky.

That machine could provide enough power to drive everything, and could sleeplessly. He only needed to eat shovels of charcoal and boil the pot of water. Qin Li didn't know how the machine did all this, but he instinctively sensed a huge crisis.

Da Qi had to get this thing. This was his first idea and his final idea. For this reason, he did not hesitate to expose himself, and even exposed some chess pieces that had been hidden deep in Yuejing. These chess pieces were never known except for the upper level of ghost shadows, and they had never used their ideas forever.

In the minds of the senior officials such as Ghost Shadow Cao Fu, Qin Li, and Jia Fangzhou, these people should be used at the most critical moment. Only when the two countries fight for hegemony and fight hard can they maximize their benefits.

The more frequent a spy is, the greater the chance of being exposed.

But now, Qin Li felt that he had to use them.

It seemed that I walked into a tavern casually and ordered a plate of edamame, a plate of pork head meat, and a pot of wine. I sat on a table in the corner, peeling the edamame with a delicious taste and drinking the wine.

He placed the edamame shells on the table one by one. They seemed casual, but in fact they were some code words that outsiders could not understand. He drank this wine for a long time, and it was not until the sky was getting darker and the last guest in the shop left, he grew up, but instead of walking out, he walked straight inside, lifted a curtain, and walked in like this.

The boss sitting behind the counter in the tavern was wiping the table, chairs and benches. He seemed not to see his movements and was still doing things on his own. The shopkeeper was calculating today's income. The waiter wiped the table clean, then put the bench on the table, then walked to the door and embedded the door panels into the door frame. When there was only one piece left, the waiter turned around and smiled at the boss, "I'll go back first."

The shopkeeper closed the account book, walked out of the counter, and smiled and said, "Okay, come early tomorrow."

The waiter nodded, turned around, and disappeared into the night. The shopkeeper closed the last door panel. His face was reflected by the flashing lights on the counter, but his face was the most uncertain. Looking at the door curtain that seemed to be still shaking, his lips trembled a few times, and he finally said nothing.

Is the quiet day finally over?

Qin Li, who had passed through the curtain, seemed to be very familiar with the structure of the room and walked inside with a familiarity. In fact, this was only the first time he entered this door, but all the decorations and designs inside were firmly reflected in his mind.

He pushed open a door again and stepped into the room. There was a big bed inside. The bed was complete and tidy and neatly tidy. Qin Li put on the big bed in his shoes and lay on it. He pulled it up somewhere. The bed board flipped over and with a shout, Qin Li disappeared from the room.

Qin Li fell into a small closed space, calmed down and looked up at the bed board on his head that was gently restored to its original state. As the bed board closed, the last trace of the closing disappeared from his eyes. He groped and reached out and pushed open a small door on the wall, bent down and walked in.

This is a long alleyway. There are no lights in the alleyway, it is pitch black, and the long alleyway is not straight but turns in a curve. However, Qin Li seemed confident. He took steps in the darkness. When he arrived at the place where he was about to turn, he would naturally turn around.

After about a stick of incense, he stopped and reached out to grop on the wall for a while. A sound of Titicaca came and another door was opened in front of him.

He walked in, closed the door behind him, then took out a fold from his arms, ignited it in a sway, and looked at the indoor environment.

The house is not big, but although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

Qin Li walked to the edge of the desk and lit the oil lamp on it. The small room suddenly became brighter.

After sitting behind the desk, I reached out to pick up the ink ingot and poured a little water into the inkstone. While tidying up my thoughts, I grind the ink.

When the inkstone was filled with ink, Qin Li almost finished what he wanted to say from the beginning, picked up the pen, spread the paper and started writing on it.

He wrote very quickly, but it seemed that he wanted to say more. The ink full of ink was gone. He put down his pen and began to grind the ink again. Then he wrote quickly again.

When a crisp ringtone came from this small room, a thick stack of paper was already in front of him. He put down his pen and looked up to the other direction of the room.

A door on the other side was opened, and a man holding an oil lamp walked out from inside. He was a middle-aged man in his early forties, wearing a fourth-rank official uniform from the Ming Dynasty.

"When is it now?" Qin Li asked directly.

"It's almost three o'clock." The visitor blew the oil lamp in his hand, walked to the big desk, dragged a chair, and sat down. "According to the previous agreement, you seem to have come too early."

Qin Li looked at the thick stack of manuscript paper in front of him and nodded: "I have to come. But you are late."

"I am preparing for the autumn test during this period. The Ministry of Rites is busy all over the place. Even the old Minister Xiao Hua is the same. How can I be an exception?" said Renren.

Qin Li nodded. The autumn examination of the Ming Dynasty and the scientific examination of the Qi State were completely different. Their autumn examinations spread across the country of the Ming Dynasty. Elementary schools were promoted to middle schools, and middle schools were then taken to county colleges or capital colleges. It can be said that if you entered the county college, you could become a member of the Ming system. If you were admitted to the capital college, you could basically become an official at the level of county magistrates or even county magistrates after graduation. The autumn examination every year is the number one event of the Ministry of Rites, and they had to be busy.

"Do you know the steam engine?" Qin Li asked directly.

"I didn't know before, but now I know." Lai Ren said: "The latest machine developed by the Tiangong Bureau can provide terrifying power. It has been officially put into use in Qinghe County. Next, it will be used on a large scale. The Ministry of Rites has received the latest task issued by the Political Affairs Hall. Within this year, a mechanical school will be organized in Yuejing City to learn how to operate and repair steam engines."

Qin Li's eyes flashed: "Is it possible to arrange our people in?"

The visitor shook his head: "The first batch is limited, with only one hundred places, and there is only one source for these people, that is, the army. And I need people who have lived in the Ming Dynasty for more than three years, have a family and have both parents. It is impossible for outsiders to get in. And they are just learning how to operate, repair, not learning to manufacture."

The visitor obviously understood Qin Li’s thoughts.

Qin Li was silent for a moment: "Massive use? Are you ready to apply it to those?"

"Textile, mines, rail cars, boat moors..."

Every time the visitor said something, Qin Li felt that he was beaten hard and beaten hard. He suddenly thought of the information they received some time ago. Yu Cong, a shipbuilder in Ming Dynasty, had been in Yuejing City for more than a month, and then he took a group of Tiangong Office people back to Baoqing and disappeared without a trace.

"Battleship!" He moaned in pain. He saw that the steam engines were driving hundreds of looms, which could naturally extend to that thing or allow the warship to ride the wind and waves.

"We want to get this thing. At any cost." Qin Li stared at the other party, took out a small seal from his arms, and placed it on the table: "Use all the hands and relationships we can use, this small seal can mobilize all the money we store in Ming Kingdom, a total of more than one million taels. As long as we can get that thing, it is worth it even if it is spent."

The visitor picked up the small seal and put it in his arms: "It is completely impossible to get the real thing. This thing is too big to cover it up at all. I can only try to get the drawings."

Qin Li nodded, pointed to the thing on the table and said, "This is the report I wrote to the commander, I will send them out safely."

The visitor frowned and said, "Don't you go back to Qi?"

Qin Li shook his head: "I have received a new task. In a short period of time, I'm afraid I can't go back to Chang'an." Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled, "Maybe I can't go back in my life. There is also a letter from me from home, please send it back for me."

The visitor was silent for a while, and finally nodded, stood up, "Take care all the way!"
