Chapter 161

The warm wind floats, blowing the golden waves of wheat in the field.

Zhujia village, which is close to the wheat field, is very hot at this time. Every family is busy looking for tinnitus in their own cesspit.

Zhu 56 was the fastest runner. At this time, he already had a large amount of white powder in his hand. He carefully searched the pit in his home. Zhu 56 carefully wrapped up the white powder and immediately went to Qingzhou City.

"Zhu 56, go and have a look first. If you can sell money, we'll go."

"Yes, you run fast. We'll wait for you to come back."

“……”

Many people in the village are digging and many people are watching. The suffering people do not fully believe in the government.

Although the production team has benefited them a lot, the deep-rooted impression of the government in their minds is still hard to change for a while.

They were afraid that they were just sending things away for nothing.

Zhu 56's steps did not stop. His brother Zhu 34 was in the army. He believed in the current Qingzhou government and the king of Qi more than others.

Holding the white powder tightly, Zhu Wuliu went to Qingzhou City and went directly to the Yamen.

At this time, at the gate of the yamen, a boy of the same grade as him seemed to be waiting for something. Zhu Wuliu hesitated for a moment and asked, "do you want to buy nitrates here?"

This young man is Lu Tong's subordinate. In order to identify the firecracker, Lu Tong sent the surplus people to the prefectural government to take charge of the acquisition.

"That's right." The boy was surprised.

So far, no one has come here to hand in saltpeter. This young man is the first.

Zhu five six light relaxed tone, handed the fire nitrate in the past, said: "I found so many."

There was a scale in front of the young man. He weighed the things Zhu Wu and Liu brought and said, "it's five Liang in all, because you are the first one. Your highness said that the saltpeter brought by the first 100 people was bought for encouragement with 20 Wen and a Jin. This is 10 Wen. Take it."

Ten coppers to hand, Zhu five six Xi smile.

At this time, the youth said to Zhu 56, "by the way, there is another way to get more nitrates. Do you want to learn?"

"Yes Zhu Wu and Liu agreed without hesitation. The temperature of the copper money in his hand made him believe in the government of Qingzhou.

The young man nodded, and told Zhu Wu Liu about the way to make sodium hydroxide by mixing the old soil and plant ash.

Zhu nodded and immediately went back to the village.

At this time, when Zhu Wu Liu came back, many villagers surrounded him and asked, "Wu Liu, what's the matter?"

Zhu Wu Liu brightened the copper coin in his hand. "I said that our highness would not cheat the common people. The people in the government said that the first 100 people went to buy 20 Wen a Jin."

As soon as the words came out, the people around Zhu Wuliu ran away immediately. When they got home, they picked up the saltpeter and ran to Qingzhou City.

In an instant, hundreds of people were turned out by dogs.

Zhu Wu Liu laughed for a while, holding the copper money in his hand, thinking about how to use the money he earned?

At this time, the news that Huo No3 could really pay back spread slowly, and more people joined in the search and production of Huo No3.

After half a month of shortage of chemical laboratory materials in Qingzhou City, the first batch of nitrates arrived. Although these nitrates had a strong urine smell, they were better than none.

"Your Highness, you are really powerful. You have solved the problem of saltpeter in this way. Hehe, the king of Shu still wants to pinch his highness. Now it seems that he has no place to sell saltpeter in the future."

Lu Tong almost fainted by the sack of saltpetre, but still danced happily.

Xiao Ming had a bitter smile. If he could use normal saltpeter, who would go to the cesspit to find it.

And this is not a long-term solution. After all, it takes time for the formation of saltpeter. The folk method of extracting saltpeter can not replace the saltpeter mine after all.

This time, he made public this method, one for the sake of emergency, the other for the sake of disgusting the king of Shu.

When the whole people of Dayu know how to get nitrates, he will see where the nitrates in Shu are sold.

"Now there's plenty of saltpeter, so we need to prepare as much gunpowder as possible." Xiao Ming said.

About the king of Shu, his letter to Chang'an has not come back, and I don't know how Xiao Wenxuan will deal with it.

But anyway, he got through it for a while.

There is enough gunpowder. Next, he will think about how to throw the gunpowder can.

Xiao Ming has his own ideas about this powder can. In the battlefield, weapons are never single.

This gun is used to deal with the catapult and kill the enemy far away, but this powder can is different. It is used to kill the barbarian troops who gather under the city to climb the ladder.

The power of this pottery pot lies in that it can be filled with a large amount of gunpowder. If the gunpowder explodes, it can make the barbarians turn upside down. This is different from the linear killing of artillery, but belongs to the range killing.

In view of the fragility of the pottery pot, Xiao Ming is going to wrap a thick layer of straw on the outside of the pottery pot and tie it up layer by layer.As long as a small stone throwing machine is set up on the city wall at that time, it can fully realize the long-range artillery, stone throwing within 200 meters, and the short-range coverage of soldiers, so that the barbarians can enjoy the feast of gunpowder at any place.

Thinking about this crazy defensive strategy, Xiao Ming goes to the equipment department. Chen Qi is very busy now, but he can't help it. This matter has to be handed over to him

At the same time, a group of unwelcome people arrived in Chang'an city.

These people are barbarian envoys from Jinzhang Khanate. Their arrival has broken the calm atmosphere of Chang'an city. From Yipin officials to the common people, all of them are spying on the purpose of these barbarian envoys.

This will also mean that in the future, Dayu state and Jinzhang Khanate will be at war or peace.

"Three messengers, please have a rest in the post house. Tomorrow your majesty will summon three messengers from afar."

Zhao Xing, the Minister of Honglu temple, was responsible for entertaining the barbarians. Honglu temple was responsible for handling the affairs of foreign envoys in Dayu state.

"Tomorrow! Today we are going to see your emperor. We have delayed our important work. Be careful, dog head

The barbarian emissary who came here this time was tall, with his hair draped behind him, small braids hanging on both sides, gold rings flashing on his ears, dark face and cold look.

he was accompanied by two guards in leather armor and felt hat, and it was one of them who spoke well at this time.

When Zhao Xing was drunk, he was a little frightened.

The barbarians are very powerful. Among the officials in Chang'an, Timan has turned pale. Of course, Zhao Xing is one of them.

When he saw the barbarian Messenger, his legs trembled and his mind was flustered, for fear that he would make the barbarian's eldest brother lively.

"My lord messenger." Zhao Xing said with a sycophantic smile: "I'm really powerless to convey the emperor's will. Please forgive me. I'll arrange good food and wine for the three adults right now, will you?"
