The four newcomers to the palace, according to the instructions of their predecessors, served dishes on plates, and only served a little of each.

Sit down and eat, and when you're done eating, go and serve other dishes, so you can eat as many as you want.

The cafeteria is lit at night, and the glass lamps are lit with candles, and the candlelight shines outwards in all directions, and there are no large shadows underneath because of the glass.

"Push a cart of meals to the bath, ask for a large piece of meat, and have a lot of work today." A farmer stood outside the cafeteria and shouted.

"Got it." The people in the cafeteria agreed.

"They don't come in to eat because they are afraid of delaying their work?" A new palace maid asked Cuiliu in a low voice.

"The ash on the kiln is big, and there is a lot of ash on the body, and there will be ash on other dishes when you come in, so you go directly to the bath, and you are hungry and anxious, and you can't wait."

Cuiliu knew the reason, and also whispered back.

"Li Dongzhu, let's take a few names." Colliers didn't go back at night, drank wine, took a sip and said to Li Yi.

"The palace maids are Bihe and Jin Ju, and the inner supervisors are cork and purple jade." Li Yi casually gave four names.

The palace maids and eunuchs in the next four classes have a common name, and the four of them are divided into points and determined.

They go to work from this moment on, a few days longer than the next shift.

"Why don't we stay a few more days?" Pink said.

"No." Gao Lishi refused: "You wait until you go back and continue to see the other people in the palace, pick a good teaching, and prepare to replace Bihe, Jin Ju, Huang Bai, and Ziyu." ”

Peach pouted, I don't want to go back, the New Year's Palace is busy, it's better to be relaxed in Zhuangzi.

Gao Lishi ignored it, he still wanted to enjoy the feeling of Zhuangzi in the palace, but he couldn't.

"I'll bring you a gift when I leave tomorrow." Li Yi said.

The four of them were happy, and they didn't come in vain.

"Ask for vegetables, go back and distribute them to the other two classes." Cuiliu asked.

"You wait for yourself to choose." Li Yi agreed, he treated the palace maids and eunuchs who came over as his own people, and he couldn't go back to the palace to live a bad life.

Every time people go back, they will take things in large bags and small bags, and those who change back will have to wait 30 days before they can come back to Zhuangzi.

When I was in Zhuangzi, I always felt that the days were short, and in the palace, I found that the sun rose slowly and set even more slowly.

Fortunately, they still have a hope, they can always be on the wheel, but more people in the palace have no hope.

Sixteen people were newly selected, and these four people were the best performers, and the other three classes had to be screened layer by layer.

Looks need to be pleasing to the eye and smart.

The most important thing is that there is no complicated relationship with other people in the palace.

If you want to use people elsewhere, unless they are the queen's palace maids and eunuchs, concubines, and talented people, they will not be selected.

Li Yi ate slowly and chatted with Gaolis.

"In the future, don't make taboo new things, remember to ask them to bring them to our family when they go back." Colliers wants benefits.

"Firecracker ......" Li Yi wanted to give fireworks.

"Firecrackers are taboo. You asked your brother to send it to the palace, and our family has it ourselves, isn't it easier to get it than Your Majesty? ”

Colliers firmly refused.

He ran himself with a bunch of dangerous goods, and the boom exploded all at once.

Previously, Li Yi sent it in Xingqing Palace, but there was no one in the imperial city, and it was taken when thirty children needed to be fired.

"Li Dongzhu, if you want to sell firecrackers, you must find a good buyer, which one to sell to, and leave a record." Colliers thought of something.

Li Yi stopped with chopsticks to his mouth, thought for a while, and nodded: "It should be so." ”

The dish was sent to the mouth, chewed and swallowed a few times, Li Yi said again: "I have a method, anyone who buys firecrackers, the village sends someone to follow, and in the past refers to the ignition of fireworks, every time you buy, you must set off once you set it off, and then you want to buy it again." ”

"Good idea, our family is at ease." Colliers raised his glass in agreement.

"By the way, it can also benefit the banker." Li Yi said with a smile.

"Benefits?" Colliers was surprised.

"The fireworks guidance fee, add half of the price, and give an extra fifty dollars for one wisp. The dealer came back and got five dollars, and I got forty-five dollars. ”

Li Yi said the price increase and distribution ratio, and gave the dealer 10% of the business fee.

"Li Dongzhu is really good at trading." Colliers said something that I don't know if it was a derogatory or a compliment.

"They set off fireworks, and they will accidentally blow up and injure people, and there are bankers to guide them, and I will be responsible for accidents."

Li Yi explained the reason, he took the most responsibility, so he took more money.

"That's a reason." Colliers smiled.

After eating, they go to rest, and the newcomers are taught the rules of the dormitory one-on-one.

***

On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Li Chengqi came over again as a starter and referee.

Gao Lishi and the others ate breakfast before dawn and rushed outside the city gate to wait for the door to open.

After the morning meeting in the palace, Yao Chong got good news when he returned to the political hall.

"Yao Xiang, they made it, they made it, they dismantled many cannons, and found that there were no sawdust and honey in them, but it seemed to have charcoal.

I readjusted the recipe, sulfur, saltpeter, charcoal, and it really worked well.

It's just that I don't know how Zhuangzi's medicine is grain by grain, and the powder is dropped in the middle of the mud, and it always doesn't make a sound, and it doesn't work if the sand grains are put in. ”

The person in charge of the skills of the hundred crafts reported the situation to Yao Chong.

"How much does it cost?" Yao Chong was happy.

"One coin can make three, but two or three out of ten can ring, the sound is not loud enough, and there is a lot of smoke." Someone answered.

"Why is it so expensive? This can't be sold, right? Yao Chong thought of having a very quiet cannon and found that there was no market competitiveness.

"Yao Xiang, I have a method, let's make it and look the same as Li Yi Zhuangzi outside, one dollar or two to sell out, others don't know what we did, and when the time comes, ......"

'Smack! Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped on the head.

Yao Chong said angrily: "When the time comes, your head will move, and you can only resign from the official, and you can't afford to lose this person." ”

"Yes, yes, no." The man nodded repeatedly.

"Go, tell them to study hard, and the safety manual is firmly memorized." Yao Chong's good mood is gone.

Then, less than half an hour, a puff of smoke rose from the place where the prisoner had been loaned to the laborers.

There was a panic in the palace, where did the water go?

The remaining 2,500 horsemen from the Forbidden Garden rushed directly to the palace, and the queen entered her carriage and called someone to call your majesty.

It didn't take long for the news to come back.

It's okay, it's not that someone rebelled, and the place where the gunpowder was put burned.

In the Queen's Palace, Li Longji looked at Yao Chong, who came in to ask for guilt: "The safety operation manual is all used as toilet paper?" ”

"Your Majesty, there are no casualties, the gunpowder is scattered, it is burned, according to the safety manual, once the danger is discovered, run immediately, only a few people's clothes are burned, and their faces are black."

Yao Chong was also angry.

"How did you burn?" Queen Wang asked from the carriage.

She didn't plan to hide in the palace, so if something really happened, she rushed out and went to Li Yi.

She firmly believes that although her uncle did not take out any weapons, it is really dangerous, and even if thousands of troops and horses can't rush in, her uncle must have a means.

Now she is unhappy, is it easy to conceive a child? Scare me.

"They wanted to add glue to the powder, grind it together, and it was crushed, and everyone shouted and ran, and the medicine was scattered, and there were some on the ground, and it was on fire."

Yao Chong said about the fire, and at the same time rejoiced, thanks to the scattered according to the safety manual, and then found that it was not good to run first.

Otherwise, it will be a dead man.

Gao Lishi stood beside him, hesitated, and said, "Your Majesty, in order to avoid accidents, proprietor Li ...... there yesterday."

He said that he supervised the purchase of firecrackers and Li Yi's coping methods.

"This gunpowder should not be made by the workshop, there are many people, and the people who know the secrets are involved...... Sent to Li Yi Zhuangzi. ”

Li Longji decided, you all stop playing, what should I do if the thing blows up?

"The minister knows." Yao Chong reluctantly responded.
