Zhu Ping'an took Lu Heng back to his house and told him his thoughts.

When An Le Gong talked about the congratulatory gift, Zhu Ping'an remembered his hometown of Liuyang, Hunan Province in his previous life, which was the hometown of fireworks, so he came up with the idea of making a grand fireworks as a congratulatory gift.

Ordinary fireworks naturally couldn't achieve the effect he wanted, so he looked it up again in "Persona in Nine Days". This strange book is indeed all-encompassing, and even such strange and obscene tricks are recorded.

After the idea was formed, Zhu Ping'an learned about it in Kyoto City again, and knew that there are now things like firecrackers, but most of them are similar to modern two-kickers and small hanging whips, which are simple and rough.

Fireworks are not uncommon, but they are extremely luxurious, and they are usually reserved for the royal family, and they are set off during the Lantern Festival for the people of Kyoto to enjoy. It's just that those production processes are also extremely simple, and they are far from achieving the kind of effect they imagined.

This is also natural, how can the things of the fairy world be compared with the mortal world?

Zhu Ping'an is sure that if he can make a grand fireworks, he will definitely be able to shake the whole of Kyoto.

Lu Heng heard Zhu Ping'an's thoughts, frowned and pondered for a while before he spoke, "Little Hou Ye's idea is extremely exquisite, and Lu admires it very much. Although the production process of this fireworks is complicated, Lu asked himself if it took some time, and he could make it. It's just that to make fireworks, the most important material is fire, and without this, everything is utopian. But fire and nitrate are strictly controlled by the government, and the amount we need is too large, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to get ......."

Lu Heng's concerns are not unreasonable.

Since its invention, it has been strictly controlled by the government of all dynasties, especially in the Taisho Dynasty. Soon after Taizu ascended the throne, he decreed that fire and nitrate were the exclusive use of the government, and if private transactions were found, they would be punished for rebellion.

Firecrackers used by the people are also uniformly made and sold by the government's workshops, and the people buy them in real names, and can only be used for Chinese New Year's Eve and Lantern Festival and other New Year's festivals.

Zhu Ping'an naturally knew about this, but he already had a plan in his heart.

"Mr. Lu doesn't need to worry about the fire, Ben Hou naturally has a way."

"If that's the case, please also ask the little marquis as soon as possible, it is not far from the emperor's birthday, if it is later, I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up."

Hearing Zhu Ping'an say that he could get fire nitrate, Lu Heng also breathed a sigh of relief.

He was also extremely interested in Zhu Ping'an's idea, and he really wanted to see the imaginary spectacular scene with his own eyes, so he naturally didn't want to be stillborn.

…………

Early in the morning of the second day, Lu Heng stayed in the mansion to tinker with those materials, and Zhu Ping'an took Laifu and drove a big car out of the mansion directly.

Turning the corner of Qianmen Street, Zhu Ping'an said a few words to Laifu and asked him to leave first, but he would drive the car alone and go straight to the west of Kyoto.

The Taisho Dynasty had six departments, among which there was a material prohibition division under the household department, which was responsible for the control and management of critical materials such as copper, iron, fire and salt. Zhu Ping'an learned that the Department of Prohibition had a warehouse in the west of Kyoto, which was dedicated to storing fire and other materials. Although the place is in Kyoto, it is sparsely populated, after all, fire and other materials are flammable and explosive, and it is too dangerous.

The manager of the warehouse of the Prohibition Division is a military attache from the rank of Liupin, surnamed Lao Ya, who has been guarding the warehouse with a team of officers and soldiers for five or six years.

Except for the good workshop under the Ministry of Industry, which comes once a month to receive firecrackers for making firecrackers, very few people usually come. Although there is no oil and water here, it is very leisurely.

Since no one comes here on weekdays, usually the small courtyard in front of it is not closed. Zhu Ping'an drove the car directly to the door of the warehouse, turned around and entered the courtyard.

Bao Laoya and a few of his subordinates were playing with a small amount of money in the courtyard, but they saw a young man who broke in directly without passing the word, and couldn't help but sink his old face and scolded, "What are you doing, what are you doing, you don't look at what kind of place this is, so you break in so indiscriminately?" ”

"This is Master Bao, this Hou is Zhu Ping'an."

Zhu Ping'an said with a smile.

"Zhu Ping'an......"

The name sounded a little familiar, and Bao Laoya's mind quickly turned, and suddenly something came to mind.

"You ......, are you the Marquis of Zhu?"

"It's Benhou."

"The little marquis is playing in the city every day, I don't know what to do when I come here today?"

Bao Laoya hurriedly smiled.

The originally long face suddenly bloomed into a flower, and the row of buckteeth on it was exposed, which was particularly eye-catching.

Although I haven't seen Zhu Ping'an, this master's name is really loud in Kyoto City, and Bao Laoya has naturally heard of it.

"Ben Hou came here today because he has something to worry about Lord Bao, and I hope it will be convenient."

Zhu Ping'an said politely.

"What did the little marquis say? You are a noble person, and you are the best friend of the villain's own owner, as long as you don't move the fire from us, as long as the rest is a word from the Hou Ye, the villain will not dare to quit if he goes to the soup. ”

Bao Laoya is worthy of being an old oilman, although he said politely, he blocked Zhu Ping'an's back road with a word.

When Zhu Ping'an revealed his identity, Bao Laoya began to think in his heart, "We don't have flowers and wine here, there are no girls, and there are no novelties." If there is, it's nothing more than those black fires. The little marquis came to the strange place today, isn't it the idea of fighting this fire? ”

He knew that these little ancestors were bold and dared to play anything. But this is where their net worth and life lie, and they dare to play, but they can't afford to play.

Zhu Ping'an didn't expect that this pack of old teeth was also a little shrewd, and he guessed his intention in a moment.

However, he had long thought that it would not be too easy to get the fire nitrate, and at this time, listening to Bao Laoya's polite refusal, he directly picked it out and said, "Don't hide it from Lord Bao, Ben Hou is here for the fire nitrate." ”

Master Bao chuckled in his heart, and said in his heart, "It's broken, it's as I expected." ”

The smile on his face was even greater, "Since the little marquis wants to be fired, there must be a document signed and approved by the forbidden?" The little marquis took it out for the villain to see, and let people prepare it for you. ”

"There's no paperwork."

"That's the order signed and approved by the main hall of the Ministry of Industry?"

"There is no adjustment order."

Bao Laoya actually expected it a long time ago.

In addition to the duties hanging in the palace, this little marquis has no errand in the Ministry of Industry and Household Department, if it is a business that goes through the normal procedures, how can he let him come to receive the fire?

"That's ......, little marquis, this is difficult for villains."

Bao Laoya frowned slightly, with an embarrassed expression, "The villain is just an errand boy, if there is no document from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Yamen, the villain will never dare to call the shots." The little marquis must know that this private setting of fire is a big crime of killing the head, and I hope that the little marquis will be considerate and considerate of the villain. ”

"Little Marquis, I said that you are early in the morning, what are you doing by letting Laifu pull me to this place where birds don't? Is there something new again? ”

At this moment, Fu Di broke in in a hurry, and before the person entered the hospital, he shouted with a broken gong.

"Little master, are you here too?"

When Bao Laoya saw Fu Di, he hurriedly ran forward and respectfully asked for peace.

He was originally a domestic slave in the Jiyang Mansion, and he had served in the mansion for a long time, and the Jiyang Duke saw that he was diligent, so he found him a six-rank military attaché.

Fu Dinai is the master of his family, and when Bao Laoya saw him, he was naturally very respectful.

"Old Luo? What are you doing here? ”

Fu Di was stunned when he saw Bao Laoya.
