Li Zhaotong's purpose in asking this was very pure, he just wanted to make artillery.

As for why he suddenly remembered this matter, this was mainly due to the Daoist priest of the Shenxiao Sect.

This Taoist priest of the Shenxiao Sect is all good at playing with gunpowder! Li Zhao thought that the Taoist priests of the Shenxiao Sect should be able to help in making artillery.

Therefore, he planned to bring the talents who knew how to make artillery to meet the Taoist priest of the Shenxiao Sect.

"I know how to make eagle cannons."

When Uruz Reis was escorted by the guards of the East Palace, although his face was full of grief and indignation, and he looked like he wanted to "be in Cao Ying's heart and be in Han", but in order to get free as soon as possible, his speed from his heart was still very fast.

He was the first to stand up.

"Eagle Cannon?"

There is a huge difference between Chinese and Western languages, and when the Ming Dynasty translates, it is a headache, such as the Ottoman Empire, the translation of the Ming Dynasty is Lu Miguo, the difference between the two is not too big.

This eagle cannon, Li Zhaotong doesn't know how this Uruz Reis translates, anyway, he has never heard this word, and he is reluctant to ask the system, so Li Zhaotong really doesn't have a concept in his mind about the eagle cannon.

However, this Uruz Reis can make artillery, which is good, no matter whether the artillery he makes is better than that of Daming, Li Zhaotong has made up his mind to go to Zhu Houzhao to Wang Gongchang to ask for a few excellent craftsmen, learn Uruz Reis's artillery-making technology, and improve it.

Therefore, he still showed great interest in the Eagle Cannon.

"Okay! Then I would like to ask Mr. Uruz to give me advice. ”

After speaking, Li Zhaotong looked at the Persian retinue of Uruz Reis and asked:

"Guys, are there any people among you who know how to make or repair artillery?"

These Persians were really deceived by Uruz Reis, who was using them to conceal his identity.

These people are not pirates, and their backbone may be stronger than that of Uruz Reis, so in the face of Li Zhaotong's questioning, these Persians did not say a word.

On the contrary, it was Mu Yangquan, who was brought out by Li Zhaotong by the way, who came out of the back door of the crowd in a little anxious manner, and stammered to Li Zhaotong:

"Li Gongzi, the villain can draw drawings, I don't know if you need it?"

"Why are you still here? Ben Gongzi doesn't have any good feelings for speculators like you, hurry up! ”

If it weren't for himself and Zhu Houzhao to avoid impeachment, Li Zhaotong would not have been kind enough to bring this Mu Yangquan out of the East Palace, but he only brought Mu Yangquan out, and he didn't have any good feelings for this person, so the people escorted by the guards of the East Palace did not include him.

However, this guy is obviously a typical opportunist, he knows that he has offended the prince, and he knows that the prince is very likely not to care about him as a small Sibin Agency, but the king of Hades is easy to hide, and the little ghost is difficult!

He offended the prince, and those eunuchs in the East Palace would not let go of this opportunity to clean him up and curry favor with the prince.

Therefore, this guy saw that Li Zhaotong took him out of the East Palace by the way, so he followed all the way behind, trying to hug Li Zhaotong's thigh.

"Li Gongzi, the villain can also speak Persian, most of these Persians can't speak our Ming official dialect, the villain can translate for you!"

After saying that, this guy immediately repeated it to those Persians in Persian, and Li Zhaotong asked if any of them knew how to make or repair artillery.

As a result, two Persians really came forward.

"Li Gongzi, these two said they would repair artillery."

After Mu Yangquan finished speaking, he bowed to Li Zhaotong and stood aside, this guy knows the truth of being too late.

Now, it's up to Li Zhaotong's choice.

However, Mu Yangquan miscalculated, or omitted a thing.

"Venerable Master Li, I can also speak Persian, and I am more fluent than him."

How could Uruz Reis not speak Persian if he could pretend to be a Persian and deceive these Persians?

This guy is fluent in multiple languages.

Moreover, this guy has no lower limit for himself, so this guy stood up and competed for favor.

Seeing Uruz Reis standing up to compete for favor, Mu Yangquan was anxious, and he hurriedly said:

"Li Gongzi, I am a Ming man, I am more worthy of your trust than him, you think, this pirate has offended these Persians, if this pirate deliberately makes a mistake in translation and makes a mistake in it, wouldn't it be very bad for you? So, please take me in! ”

Li Zhaotong didn't believe in Mu Yangquan's nonsense, the credibility of this kind of opportunist was not much higher than that of Uruz Reis, but this guy really said it, indeed, Li Zhaotong was also worried that Uruz Reis would be bad, so he was a little moved:

"But you are still the secretary of the department, you defect to me, what should the department do?"

"Venerable Ming Prince, Ibrahimi can translate for you to prevent this damned pirate from harming us Persians again."

Mu Yangquan's plan to hug his thighs fell through after all, and the leader of the Persians deceived by Uruz Reis could speak Chinese, and he was willing to stand up.

Therefore, Li Zhaotong, who didn't like Mu Yangquan, still asked Mu Yangquan to get out of here.

"Two, I don't like to beat around the bush, you two, don't play tricks when translating, you have to supervise each other."

Li Zhaotong also knows some checks and balances, and the Persians such as Uruz Reis and Ibrahimi are considered to have made enemies, so it is a good choice to let them check and balance each other and supervise each other.

"No problem." Uruz Reis happily agreed.

"Hmm." Ibrahimi replied.

"Then you two, and these two gentlemen who know how to make artillery, come with me!"

The others are going to be sent to house arrest, this Li Zhaotong didn't mention it again, and the family members of the Li Mansion will help him deal with it.

……

"I've seen Li Gongzi, Li Gongzi, you can count it back, it really makes me wait!"

The Taoist priest was more upright and anxious, and when he saw Li Zhaotong walking into the main hall of his house, this guy got up from his seat and hurriedly rushed up.

"I don't know the name of the gentleman yet."

"My name is Lin Xu, everyone else calls me Jiuri Daoren, Li Gongzi, you are the next generation descendant of my Taoist ancestor Lao Tzu, you can call me Xiao Jiuri."

"I'll call you the Nine Days Dao Master!"

On the ninth day, Li Zhaotong always felt that it was strange to call a middle-aged uncle like this, so he decisively refused.

"Li Gongzi can tell me anything."

Lin Xu was free and easy, he didn't care about a title, he looked at Uruz Reis and the others who came in with Li Zhaotong.

"Li Gongzi, who are these Hu merchants?"

"Oh, you say they! They're the ones who can teach you Lefa. Li Zhaotong replied casually.

"They? Li Gongzi, don't be kidding, how can these Hu businessmen know Lei Fa? ”

The Ming people basically have their own people who are the people of the Heavenly Empire, and they have an arrogant mentality, and Taoist priests are no exception, if they don't see is believing, they will not believe that foreigners are stronger than themselves. This Lin Xu obviously also has this mentality, he looks down on Uruz Reis and others.

"Ben Gongzi is not joking."

Li Zhaotong was a little displeased, but he knew that this was a matter of ideology, and if he wanted to defeat this mentality, he would use ironclad facts to crush their pride and make them return to reality.

Therefore, Li Zhaotong looked at Uruz Reis and said:

"Mr. Uruz, can you analyze what this Nine Day Dao Master is good at?"

Uruz didn't need to analyze at all, when he came in, he smelled the strong smell of sulfur on Lin Xu's body, so he directly bowed down and replied:

"Li Gongzi, if Uruz guessed correctly, this missionary should be good at making gunpowder, because he has a strong smell of gunpowder on his body."

"Well, Master of the Nine Days, do you think Uruz is right?"

Lin Xu was silent, it was obvious that he agreed with Uruz Reis's statement, but his pride made him unwilling to bow his head.

"Li Gongzi, it was you who first told this Hu Shang that the thunder method of our Shenxiao Sect is actually gunpowder."

"Mr. Missionary, you are wrong, Li Gongzi did not tell us anything, I did analyze from the smell of you, you are good at making gunpowder. Because I'm in Uruz, I also make gunpowder. ”

"I don't believe it!"

Lin Xu really couldn't accept letting a Hu man teach him Leifa, it was simply an insult to him, so his performance was a little hysterical.

"Okay, Nine Days Dao Leader, how did your Shenxiao Sect decline, don't you have a little pressure in your heart? Your thunder method is just playing with gunpowder, you can deceive Song Huizong's faint monarch, but others are not easy to deceive.

Now that Daming has such a big place as Wang Gongchang to prepare gunpowder, and it is used in warfare, do you think that the thunder method of your Shenxiao faction will have much advantage?

This Uruz is a pirate, today's pirates are fighting at sea, they can use artillery, and the artillery is loaded, that is, gunpowder, do you think that people's technology will be weaker than yours? Don't do it behind closed doors! ”

"But, Master Li, I want to learn the electricity you make."

Lin Xu's pride was pierced by Li Zhaotong, at this moment, his heart was full of bitterness, but he still had the last strength, that is, he did not come to "Lei Fa", but to "electric energy".

"Let's learn what you're good at, 'Ray Law'! If you help Ben Gongzi and cooperate with the people of Uruz to make a better artillery than the general cannon of the Ordnance Bureau and the War Bureau, then Ben Gongzi will consider teaching you 'electric energy', it is impossible for you to fail to achieve an inch, you will learn the secret technique taught to me by the Dao Ancestor from me, right? It's impossible. ”

Lin Xu is a talent, and he is also a "scientific research" maniac, this kind of person, of course, Li Zhaotong has to choose to make the best use of it-

Empty out his knowledge first, and then impart a little new knowledge to him, so that he can do further research!
