Chapter 491

Xuandu Temple back mountain, firearm supervisor!

Merton received Li Shimin's will. Naturally, he dared not neglect it and took office immediately.

"Mo Hou!" Yu Wenbo respectfully came forward.

This ink technology exhibition really opened yuwenbo's eyes. They are also craftsman families. Yuwenbo's family is knowledgeable and thinks that they can't lose to anyone together. However, after seeing the amazing skills of Merton in the ink technology exhibition, they immediately know that there are days outside the world and people outside the people.

Ordinary carpenters just boast how superb their skills are. Yuwen family is a great man in building Chang'an city. However, compared with Mohism, its pattern and technology are different.

Merton nodded and asked, "how much progress has been made in the firearms supervision project."

Yu Wenbo respectfully said, "if you return to mohou, it all depends on the help of Mohist Qianjin arm. Now the firearms supervision has been roughly completed, waiting for mohou to inspect the work."

Merton nodded. Even on the basis of Mohist machinery and the imperial court's disregard of financial, material and human resources, Yu Wenbo has made a great contribution to making the firearms prison take shape in recent months.

When Merton stepped into the firearm prison, he saw that the newly-built firearm prison was unusually empty, full of red bricks covered the ground, and all the houses were brick and tile structures. Except for the necessary beams, he rarely saw wood, which was a lesson from the last explosion.

"Master Yuwen, you have made great contributions this time. You can hand over the subsequent works to mo. in the future, the firearms supervisor will be completed. Mo will certainly be able to play the imperial court without your credit." Merton arched his hand.

"Thank you!" Yu Wenbo said happily. Naturally, he would not think that Merton would be greedy for his credit. The Yuwen family has been declining since the death of Yuwen Kai. With this credit, maybe the Yuwen family can make a comeback.

Watching Yu Wenbo leave, Merton stood at the door of the firearm prison and looked at the empty firearm prison. He was full of pride. This will be a place to change the world.

"Boom!"

A sound of horse hoofs came at a gallop. A general rode on a tall horse, and more than 100 soldiers and soldiers came with neat steps behind him.

"I've seen mohou!" the general dismounted and saluted Merton at the door.

"It was Xi Jun who bought it. What brings you here!"

Merton looked intently and found that it was bought by Xi Jun, an old acquaintance.

"Marquis Mo went to the imperial court to strengthen the guard. His majesty specially ordered that he would send a hundred and twenty horsemen to be driven by Marquis mo." Xi Junmai bowed.

"Baiqi!" Merton was overjoyed when he saw the elite soldiers behind him. Li Shimin really valued gunpowder, otherwise he would not let his trusted Baiqi protect the safety of the firearm supervisor.

"Xue Rengui stepped out of the line!" Xi Jun shouted.

Suddenly, a burly young man stepped out of the line, arched his hands at Merton and said, "Xue Rengui has seen mohou."

Merton suddenly opened his eyes. He didn't expect that the butterfly effect would appear in front of him. In history, Xue Rengui joined the army seven years later. From then on, he soared to the sky, but he didn't expect to join Baiqi in the eighth year of Zhenguan.

However, Xue Rengui is a good son of an innocent family. He is usually born with divine power. At the moment, he is just over 20. He is in his prime of life. It is not impossible to be selected into Baiqi.

"Pass on your Majesty's will! From now on, Xue Rengui will lead these hundred and twenty firearms guards." Xi Junmai shouted.

"Yes!" Xue Rengui bowed down.

After Xi Junmai explained, he led his entourage to leave,

"Please have a pleasant cooperation with general Xue in the future!" Merton was secretly excited. He was a legend of the three arrow Dingjun mountain in the future. He bowed his hand and said solemnly.

"I'm just a small captain. I can't afford to be a general. I'll just follow the orders of marquis mo." Xue Rengui quickly saluted.

Merton was amazed by his reputation in later generations, but Xue Rengui had heard of Merton for a long time. Under this strange state of mind, they met for the first time.

"Please also ask Xue Xiaowei to immediately block the firearms prison. From now on, all people and vehicles entering and leaving the firearms prison must pass the permission of mo." Merton said positively.

"Yes!"

Xue Rengui immediately took orders. With a wave of his hand, a hundred cavalry officers and soldiers immediately guarded the door of the firearm prison. At the same time, the hundred cavalries were divided into several teams to patrol the firearm prison continuously.

Subsequently, the craftsmen recruited by the Ministry of industry quickly identified themselves and entered the firearms prison.

Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Now the firearm supervision site and craftsmen have it. Everything is ready. Only the east wind is owed. The firearm supervision can be officially started when the raw materials are delivered.

"Congratulations, marquis Mo, the new official takes office!" the first to deliver the raw materials was the nearest xuandu temple, which sent the eldest son of Merton's old acquaintance.

"It's Taoist priest Changsheng!" Merton hurried forward.

"This is what Marquis Mo needs." the eldest son stretched out his hand and pointed to the carriage road behind him.

With a flash of light, Merton went to the carriage. The eldest son lifted the tarpaulin on the carriage, revealing light yellow sulfur.

"According to the requirements of mohou, all of them have been purified." the eldest son said proudly.

Since Merton's guidance on refining gold, the eldest son is now proficient in purification. In addition, the power of gunpowder is related to the purity of sulfur. Naturally, what Merton requires is the purification of sulfur by Taoist waidan sect.

"Hard work makes a long life," Morton said with satisfaction.

The next charcoal to be sent, Zhang Mu brought high-purity charcoal made by Mojia village, a full five carts.

"Bing Jing Si Deng Chong, see Mo Hou." a eunuch saluted in a sharp voice.

Merton smiled and said, "it's grandpa Deng!"

Ice king division is the department specialized in storing ice in the palace. Usually, it digs river ice in winter and stores it. It sends ice to various palaces in summer. It has little power and insignificant status. If it is not managed properly, it will make the palace lack ice, which will inevitably be punished by noble people.

Since Merton invented saltpeter ice making, the status of bingjingsi has soared, and there is no fear of punishment. Merton had dealings with Deng Chong when making ice cream in the palace.

In fact, if Merton wants saltpeter, he doesn't need to go through the palace. There are not many saltpeter in Taoism, but gunpowder is very important. If there are no people in the palace, Li Shimin can't rest assured. Merton's move also avoids suspicion in the future.

"This is the saltpeter stored by Bingjing company. Please accept it." Deng Chong waved his hand and suddenly seven carts of saltpeter appeared in front of Merton.

Merton nodded. The proportion of nitrate in gunpowder accounted for more than 70%, which was used most. Moreover, these are saltpeter refined again after ice making, and the purity is also quite high.

After Morton checked it, he began to put it into the warehouse.

At this point, all the things needed by Merton are ready. As long as an order is given, the firearms prison can be officially operated.

And Merton's firearm sacrifice is the real new official.
