- Zhao Yi has been away for more than three months.
The weather in October has gradually become cooler, but in a place like Jiangnan, you don¡¯t feel the coldness of winter for the time being! .
The workshop has been built and the first batch of workers are being recruited. The workers still signed a strict confidentiality system with the workshop, and it is under the supervision of Prefect Zhao. This is to strengthen the attention and respect of the craftsmen who are not strong in confidentiality. heart of.
Of course, this does not expect them to be able to protect secrets without fear of death in the face of coercion and inducement. After all, there is no party yet, and they are not members of the xx party yet. They do not have the spirit of glorious dedication to their own cause and they can devote themselves anytime and anywhere. Be prepared, you won¡¯t be able to ask for it!
The workshop still adopts a division of labor system to maintain confidentiality, although it may take a period of training.
Zhao Yu had already arrived in Hangzhou, and he was accompanied by a guard of fifty people. For Jian Youzhi, this solved the problem of insufficient guards. Although there are hundreds of people from Ning Haijun here, it is completely unreliable. These soldiers stay in the military camp built by Jian Youzhi and do nothing all day long. As long as they don't cause trouble to Jian Youzhi, everything will be fine. However, these people still do it themselves Claiming to be a regular army, he looked down upon the motley crew of guards headed by Wu Da.
But Wu Da¡¯s equipment is much stronger than theirs. This does not refer to the weapons, but to the ones worn on the body.
Wearing a regular cotton-padded jacket inside, it keeps you warm. When the wind blows, you don¡¯t hide in the shed, but hang out in the strong wind. The outside is dark and shiny leather armor, which looks like it is made of fine leather. Except for Wu Da's deerskin boots, the rest of the feet are also made of cowhide.
Cowhide, in this Song Dynasty, when cows were particularly precious, being able to wear a pair of cowhide boots was definitely a symbol of identity and status.
As for the food, although it is eaten in one pot, it is really different from the military camp. There are all kinds of meat dishes, all kinds of greasy food, all kinds of tricks, and it is still enough. So much so that some soldiers who had worked in workshops were unwilling to change defenses, and were begging their superiors or relying on connections to stay.
Because in addition to food, there is also extra money as a subsidy, which is the big deal. Although the money is not always much, for these big-headed soldiers, it is very rich.
As for the monthly salary of more than ten dollars for the guards, it was directly ignored by the soldiers. There was nothing comparable at all and they would not compare it.
All this aroused the jealousy and curiosity of these soldiers towards the guards.
But all this has nothing to do with Jian Youzhi, who is sitting in the hall talking to Zhao Yu.
This is a brand new hall and a brand new house. After the completion of the workshop, Jian Youzhi built a new house close to the workshop so that he could supervise and inspect the working conditions in the workshop at any time. It was also the residence left for Zhao Yu.
The house is very big, with front and back gardens and an artificial lake. There are at least a dozen rooms in the front and back yards. Jian Youzhi is not afraid of spending money, because these will be earned in this workshop that generates huge benefits, and they are just a drop in the bucket of profits.
"After I explain everything here clearly to you, I will leave. I had previously planned to celebrate the New Year here, but it seems that the progress is faster than expected, so I can still try to get back to celebrate the New Year!"
Jian Youzhi entertained Zhao Yu as a host. He sat at the head seat and Zhao Yu sat at the bottom.
"It's such a pity. I originally thought that we could live together and ask brother Liu Guang for physics questions sooner or later. I didn't expect that we would have to part ways after meeting each other only once."
Zhao Yu had a very reluctant expression. With his status as the heir apparent, it was not easy for him to come here far away from the capital. He had to bear the brunt of the imperial censors who had nothing to do but found faults with the royal family. Fortunately, with the emperor's more or less care, the trip was made.
Jian Youzhi's eyes glanced at the man outside the door. He had a curly beard and a sword. He looked like a muscular man. But when he looked around, he could see his sharpness.
"Is that the escort you brought for me?"
Jian Youzhi said that it was definitely a pity to send a man to protect him. It would be more suitable for him if he was replaced by a girl like Sanya.
"no!"
Zhao Yu denied it directly. He looked at Jian Youzhi's somewhat relieved look and found it funny.
"This is my guard. He was originally a trainer in the Forbidden Army. He committed a crime while drinking and had to be sent out. I asked him to find someone through his connections. I didn't want to hang around, so I found my father. Seeing that he was good at martial arts, I decided to This man was grateful for this favor, so he became a guard in the palace, and brought him here when he came out this time!"
"Thisdidn't you say you brought one for me?"??
"I really did bring one to you. My sister said that if I gave you a man, I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so she asked me to bring a girl over. Her martial arts skills are second to none, and she is also smart!"
"Well, is your sister's three-ring martial arts as good as yours?"
"This you still need to see it yourself. I can't say. If you don't like it, just tell me and I will ask my sister to find another one for you!"
"Forget it, let's talk about it later. It doesn't matter whether we protect or not. That girl Sanya is a good girl. A little girl has to suffer so much to learn such a skill!"
Jian Youzhi clicked her lips in approval.
"How about I bring that girl over first and have a look?"
"No, I am a grown man, what kind of protection do I need? Besides, I have Wu Da here. He is very good at martial arts and is a disciple of a famous general."
"You really don't want it?"
Zhao Yu smiled and acted very conspiratorial.
"I really don't want it anymore, even if your sister gives Sanya to me Of course, if it's true, I still have to think about it, and there's no need to talk about anything else!"
"Well, I'll send that girl back another day."
The two talked for a while, and Zhao Yu tried every means to arouse Jian Youzhi's interest in physics, but Jian Youzhi ignored him and refused to talk about those aspects of knowledge. In the end, the two of them broke up on bad terms!
When Jian Youzhi went out, he looked at the bearded guard. He was indeed very impressive. He fought with Wu Dayou and saluted Jian Youzhi.
Back in his yard, two girls were talking. The second girl was facing him, and the other girl had her back to him. They looked familiar.
"The official is here!"
Erya¡¯s sharp eyes saw Jian Youzhi standing up hurriedly.
As soon as Erya stood up, the girl also stood up, turned around, and smiled at Jian Youzhi.
Surprised, so surprised!
No wonder this figure looks familiar, it turns out he is an old acquaintance.
"Sanyawhy are you back?"
This girl with a flowery smile facing Jian Youzhi is none other than Sanya who set out with Yang Yi. The figure standing at the stern of the boat that day, blown by the wind, as thin as if she was about to float, was Sanya.
Jian Youzhi opened his mouth and stood in a daze.
"This servant was sent here by the madam. Since setting off from Hangzhou, I met the prince's fleet on the canal. The madam said that someone must be watching you, so she asked me to come over!"
"this¡¡"
It was so surprising that Jian Youzhi stammered.
"Who is protecting your wife?"
"Originally, she was sent as a bodyguard to a high-ranking official, but Madam kept her. She was afraid that she would not be familiar with the official, was not familiar with his temperament, and would not get along with her, so she sent Sanya here!"
Sanya was smiling, not seeing how excited she was. Jian Youzhi was extremely excited.
"My sister just said that she feels most at ease when getting along with officials. I'm afraid she is very happy to stay!"
Erya interrupted at the right time.
Sanya¡¯s face was a little red and she stood aside with her head raised!
This is really an unexpected reunion. To be honest, Jian Youzhi's impression of Sanya was pretty good. Thinking of Zhao Yi, the widow, she still had a crush on Jian Youzhi.
This is an unexpected surprise. Jian Youzhi was also in a very good mood these two days, and seemed to be in a happy mood when handing over various matters to Zhao Yu, and even discussed with him the production of artillery.
This was a big deal. Zhao Yu had figured out this topic and had to discuss it with Jian Youzhi day and night on how to turn this verbal knowledge into a practical weapon.
Of course, Jian Youzhi made him a new gunpowder recipe.
I chose a day to do experiments in the yard, mainly because I didn¡¯t want to attract other people¡¯s attention.
The black gunpowder purified by Jian Youzhi is far more pure than the current good black powder. The reformulated black gunpowder is also far more scientific than the current gunpowder formula. This is the modern formula of the good black powder.
The fuse is also made of black powder by Jian Youzhi, which is safe and controllable.
The first black powder produced was buried in rocks, which could enhance its power. After all, black powder relies on the rapid expansion of gas to achieve its power.
The fuse is very long, but of course such a dangerous task as lighting the fuse cannot be done by Jian Youzhi himself. Instead, Wu Dalai volunteered to serve.
He proudly held up the lit fireHe walked to the fuse with great momentum. He even felt that it was a waste for Jian Youzhi to make the fuse so long.
"You must run quickly and hide under the bunker!"
??Jian Youzhi has thousands of instructions. The so-called bunker is a row of sandbags piled up.
"The general will get his order at the end!"
Wu Da nodded, and when Jian Youzhi and the others hid in the bunker, he still felt that the village owner's performance was a bit exaggerated, even a little timid. This village owner's usual wiseness and martial prowess was somewhat inconsistent.
"Ziz!"
The fuse was lit, and Wu Da walked back like a leisurely stroll. Black powder? It's not that I haven't seen it before, but the power is obviously much smaller than what the owner described.
"Wu Da, bastard, come here quickly!"
Jian Youzhi's eyes widened and he shouted angrily at Wu Da, who forgot what he had told him again.
"The general will get his order at the end!"
Wu Da did not dare to disobey Jian Youzhi's order and ran quickly to Jian Youzhi. When he hid under the cover under Jian Youzhi's stern eyes, he heard a loud "Boom¡ª¡ª" There was a sound, and the earth shook.
It was like a rain of mud and rocks.
Everyone was panicking and swaying. Zhao Yu was the worst. He was so shocked that he fell to the ground. His ears could not hear the sound for a long time. Wu Da was also shocked and sat down on the ground, staring at his eyes and opening his mouth. I was speechless for a long time.
The best performer was Jian Youzhi, who blocked his ears with cotton, opened his mouth wide, and held his hands firmly, calm and composed, with the demeanor of a general.
Even Sanya, who was specially approved to watch, was shocked for a long time before she came back to her senses. Fortunately, she listened to Jian Youzhi and had cotton stuffed in her ears. Otherwise, she would not be much better than Wu Da.
"This this¡¡"
Zhao Yu was speechless and blushing. He wanted to say something, but couldn't. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
