In the Zhongzhou continent, the most important and grand festival of the year for the Terran is the Winter Solstice Festival, which is also known as the Winter Festival and the Winter Delivery. It is not only one of the 24 solar terms, but also a traditional festival that has been passed down by the human race.

The courts and people of the various dynasties of the human race have always attached great importance to it, and there have been grand sacrifices and celebrations from ancient times to the present.

"Historical Records, Terrans, Solar Terms": "With the winter solstice, to the gods, people and ghosts." "The purpose is to pray for and eliminate the epidemic in the Terran regional country, and to reduce the hunger and death of the people in the famine year.

"Historical Records: The Emperor Benji": "After the second year old, November Jiazi Shuodan winter solstice, the calendar is based on the system, the Son of Heaven personally goes to the ancestral mountain, and the November Jiazi Shuodan winter solstice shrine God Ming Hall, every repair of Zen. ”

The festival is pompous. From the supreme ruler, to the hundred officials and big families, to the ordinary families of all the people, different degrees of celebrations will be held.

"Miss your relatives every festive season!"

This approaching Winter Solstice Festival is the tenth important festival that Chen Jiu spent in the Zhongzhou Continent, and at this moment he has gradually identified with the people, things, and things in the Zhongzhou Continent, so this year he decided to spend this year's Winter Solstice Festival happily with his family, clansmen and people he cares about in accordance with the customs of the "Spring Festival" in his previous life.

Fireworks, indispensable!

Dumplings dumplings, reunion!

New Year's red envelopes, good luck!

Family reunion, happy happiness!

Fireworks, Chen Jiu has already found someone to make them, and the first time they appeared, they accidentally established a miracle to help Chen Jiu's group destroy the alien elite horsemen and knights.

Chen Jiu called Uncle Dao, arranged for Uncle Dao to invite the warlocks and craftsmen who made fireworks to the mansion, and discussed something, and about a pillar of incense, Uncle Dao brought two middle-aged men.

One of them was dressed in brocade clothes, his body was thin, his face was bruised and protruding, and his lips were slightly blue. Chen Jiu knew that it was a symptom of lead poisoning, and it was rumored that the warlock was good at alchemy, and it seemed that this person was well versed in this.

The man in brocade was followed by a man with a slightly younger face than him, his face was simple, his arms were very long, his hands were large, and his hands were covered with calluses, Chen Jiu judged that this man must be ingenious.

Chen Jiu came to them this time to see the people who made fireworks, and if they could be recruited, they would be included in his follow-up plan to manage the department that produced gunpowder.

"I heard that the two of them worked together to make the fireworks that my son needed according to his recipe, is it true?"

Chen Jiu looked at the two of them, activated the penetration of the spiritual power skill God, probed the two of them, and said lightly.

"Back to the Ninth Young Master, it was done by the two of us together. The thin man replied respectfully, as if the two of them were dominated by him.

"Very good! This son is very satisfied, what do you call the two of you?" Chen Jiu got up, walked to the side of the two, and began to talk cordially, through the investigation of the gods, the identities and thoughts of the two were clearly investigated.

It turns out that the two are brothers, the thin man is the senior brother, the road number Xuanyi, the strong middle-aged man is the junior brother, the road number Xuanguang, both of them are out of the Xuanmen, and they are now born, because they are originally from Shuzhou, so they have returned to their hometown, and it has been five years.

Xuanyi himself is keen on alchemy, and he is a famous teacher, often pointing out the way of immortality of famous nobles, Xuanguang is good at creation, often creating strange things, and is very popular with people who hunt for curiosity.

The things that Chen Jiu ordered to practice were similar to the methods that Xuan Yi usually practiced in pills, but he still hadn't understood the truth contained in the fireworks.

It's very distressing!

Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang have not married so far, and they have devoted all their energy to their "careers", and they are now considered well-known people in the town of Shoufu City.

In view of the fact that the two of them happened to meet Chen Jiu's requirements, and because the two of them were well-known in the town guard mansion, Uncle Dao took the recipe and found them according to Chen Jiu's requirements, and asked the two to try to make fireworks according to the recipe.

After reading the recipe and production process of fireworks and their efficacy, they were immediately overjoyed and agreed on the spot.

Xuan Yi was responsible for refining and configuring the gunpowder formula, and Xuan Guang was responsible for making, loading, and completing the cannon barrel.

Chen Jiu provided the formula of black and explosive medicine in the previous life, which was composed of saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur, and the combination ratio of the three was about 10% for sulfur, about 10% for charcoal, and about 70% for saltpeter, which was the most suitable ratio of black, fire, and medicine.

According to this recipe, fireworks and gunpowder makers only need to collect all the production materials, according to the formula, according to the proportion, careful operation, and evenly grind into a powder form of consistent size, to complete the production of black gunpowder.

At the same time, Chen Jiu also attached the detailed production process of the barrel, the hardness of the paper, the size of the cylinder outsource, the gunpowder filling requirements, and the luminescent aluminum powder requirements, as long as the maker follows the correct production steps and filling requirements, the entire fireworks production can be completed.

It's just that the requirements for skill are very high!

Black powder is flammable and explosive!

It is very dangerous if it is not handled properly!

Therefore, Chen Jiu confessed to Uncle Dao and spent a lot of money to recruit highly skilled professionals: warlocks and craftsmen to operate.

Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang two brothers, after two days of sleepless experiments, demonstrations, production, finally made a finished product that meets the requirements of the employer, after feeling the effect of the fireworks, the two were full of enthusiasm and energy, seeing that Uncle Dao did not come to pick up the goods, and simply did not ask the employer's opinion, and completed the project directly according to the quantity required by the other party.

When Uncle Dao came to inquire about the progress, the two found out that they had not received any deposit and honorarium, but the fireworks had been completed, and they were immediately embarrassed and unwilling to deliver the goods.

Uncle Dao was very happy to see that the young master's explanation was quickly completed by Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang, and he didn't care, Uncle Dao revealed his identity and directly handed over the heavy money promised by the young master to the two.

Before leaving, I asked the two curiously what is the use of this thing?

After all, the young master didn't explain it clearly, but just asked him to find alchemy masters and skilled craftsmen, and hand over the formula to the other party, so that he could complete the production of the "secret weapon".

"It's fun! It's fun!"

Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang have already determined the identity of Uncle Dao, and the people who guard the mansion answer truthfully.

Uncle Dao was even more sure that fireworks were a "secret weapon", and when he returned home, it happened that the young master went to Donghuang Lake to fish and barbecue, and he didn't have time to tell Chen Jiu, so Uncle Dao put it directly on Chen Jiu's carriage.

Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang, the two brothers, have actually been very eager to see the owner of the fireworks formula during this time, and hope that the owner will authorize them to continue research.

The two brothers who are academically and professionally far beyond ordinary people know that the utensils made with this formula are probably not only for ornamentation, but are likely to change the pattern of the Zhongzhou continent.

can find them, Uncle Dao who took out this formula is an old man from the town guard mansion, Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang know in their hearts that if they pass on the formula privately or study it privately, if they are investigated, the consequences will be very serious, and they will even be in a different place.

So they don't dare!

Today, I finally waited for Uncle Dao's invitation, and came to the town guard mansion with apprehension, who thought that the owner of the formula was the ninth young master, and I was impressed.

"Very good! I don't talk nonsense, I know the situation of the two of you very well, I want to recruit two people to join the town guard mansion and manage the special workshop that I lead, I don't know what the two of you want?"

Through the conversation with Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang, and through the penetration of the gods, Chen Jiu found out that the two were research experts, and they were senior scientific researchers in their previous lives.

Now the two, full of admiration and awe for him, the owner of the fireworks formula, decided to recruit the two.

"Ninth Young Master, we are willing!"

Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang actually wanted to take refuge in a "gold master" for a long time, relying on their manpower, material resources, and financial resources, so that their senior brothers could devote themselves to research and invention.

"Xuan Yi and Xuan Guang, you two will move into my mansion immediately, I will instruct Uncle Dao to arrange the room and workshop, and after settling down, we will discuss specific matters!"

Chen Jiu was overjoyed with the consent of the two.

To know!

These two are the key to follow-up planning!

"Gunpowder Master" recruitment completed!
