Watching Liang Shicheng and Wang Hao gradually move away, Zhao Ji was very satisfied with his imperial methods, and the power in his hands was like bones, attracting these minions to wag their tails and beg for mercy. Even Cai Jing, in order to get his favor, regardless of his age, with the respect of a mansion, will kneel in front of him. As for who killed this Yanjing, he didn't have the heart to care. What he wants is his Yanshan Mansion, and what he wants is to sacrifice to the Taimiao.

Zhao Ji was recuperating behind closed doors, and suddenly a crisp voice like a yellow warbler asked softly: "Daddy, who is Zhou Nan this time?" ”

Zhao Ji opened his eyes and saw a graceful and gentle figure standing aside, it was his favorite Maode, holding the border secret newspaper and reading it.

Zhao Ji closed his eyes again and said: "This person is the owner of a worry-free village in Yizhou, and he even deceived Zhuozhou and Yizhou, as if he appeared out of thin air, but he is worthy of Daddy's 100,000 army." ”

"Poof" chuckled, only to hear Maude say with a smile: "It turned out to be a mountain king." I don't know how this person wants his father to reward? ”

Zhao Ji shook his head, very patient with his own emperor, and said, "This person doesn't ask for merit. ”

"Huh?" Maude asked in disbelief: "Then this person must be an old hermit master who has seen through fame and fortune?" ”

Zhao Ji shook his head again and said, "According to Wang Dazai, this person is just twenty years old. Maude, you've been misguessing today. ”

Maude put the side report on the case table, and said angrily: "It's really infuriating! There is a broken cottage on the left and right, what is it called a worry-free village! It's a big liar! The last sentence naturally refers to Zhou Nan.

"Daddy's Yanshan Mansion still depends on him! Ha ha! Zhao Ji deliberately shouted at Mao De, who was far away.

Mao De was so angry that he stomped his foot heavily and went to the Xuelang Pavilion on Meizhu to the west. Xiangxue, the personal maid in the back, followed closely behind and persuaded: "The official family is deliberately teasing you, how dare you boast of winning Yanjing if you want to be a mountain boy?" ”

"Wait until tomorrow to change the name of the deer park to worry-free village! I want to write the inscription by hand. Maude was still puzzled and said angrily.

"Emperor Ji, will the official family ...... if they find out," Xiangxue said worriedly.

Mao De snorted coldly and said, "Just let Daddy see the general who took Yanshan Mansion for him." Don't play anymore, go back to the inscription. ”

For a while, the deer in the deer park were hated by Maude for no reason.

Zhou Nan had already returned to the cottage with three hundred cavalry. 100,000 catties of sulfur have arrived, and all of them are stacked in the sulfur warehouse. In another warehouse of the sulfur warehouse, there is a special storage of nitrate purchased by Yizhou Dongsheng Inn. There is also a storeroom where charcoal is stored. Zhou Nan had already calculated before asking for this sulfur, nitrate was originally an important raw material for making fur, in Liaoguo, because of the puddles everywhere, there are many saline-alkali land, and there are a large number of furs that need to be processed, so it can be said that there is nitrate everywhere, don't worry about not being able to buy it. Charcoal is even more convenient, what kind of charcoal is needed, Guo Xingzu can burn it himself.

The only thing missing is sulfur, and when gunpowder is prepared, sulfur is also used the most. However, even the Northern Song Dynasty did not produce much sulfur, and much of it was shipped from Japan by merchant ships. That's why Zhou Nancai opened his mouth widely, and when he opened his mouth, it was 100,000 catties of sulfur.

Zhou Nan let the three hundred cavalry he brought live in the house next to the Beizhai playground, which was originally inhabited by Yang Keshi's three hundred people, which was just right. Let these people train and be on duty with the soldiers of the Family Guardian Society.

Zhou Nan couldn't take care of going home by himself, so he went to Lao Zheng Tou first, and asked Lao Zheng Tou to find some people in the village who were single, had no children and no daughters, and had no worries. He also called Guo Xingzu, as well as Cai Xianzhong and Zhu Xian, who were made by big and small furnaces. During these times, Guo Xingzu and other ten craftsmen just stayed in their own workshops, or did some weapon repairs, or helped the public fields make some farm tools, or helped the newcomers in the village to make some doors and windows, but they also lived comfortably.

When Zhou Nan and Guo Xingzu and other three craftsmen were waiting for Lao Zheng Tou at Lao Zheng Tou's house, Zhou Nan had already told Guo Xingzu about making bombs, and asked Guo Xingzu to select suitable people for a while.

After a while, Lao Zheng led more than 30 people in, Zhou Nan asked briefly, all of them met Zhou Nan's conditions, and there was no one in the family, so he didn't care. Zhou Nan nodded and asked Guo Xingzu to start picking people.

Guo Xingzu was very serious, asked a few words with everyone, and occasionally called out a person and stood aside. In this way, five or six people were quickly picked out, and Zhou Nan asked in surprise: "More than 30 people, only pick out these few?" ”

Guo Xingzu shook his head and smiled, and said: "Dazhai master, these people picked out are not suitable. To do our work, we have to be patient, calm people, and lively temperament is not suitable. ”

As soon as Guo Xingzu explained this, Zhou Nan realized that the standard details of making gunpowder at this time were so strict that even the character of the craftsman was taken into account.

In this regard, Guo Xingzu is the authority, and Zhou Nan is completely obedient. After selecting the people, Zhou Nan just said to these people briefly: "Everyone, from today on, bring your bedding and clothes, and follow me to live in Nanzhai for a few months, go and prepare now, and gather in Nanzhai tomorrow." ”

For Guo Xingzu and the others, he only instructed them to bring their own tools, bedding and clothes, and asked them not to reveal the bomb making to others.

After sending these people away, Zhou Nan thought that he had patronized and arranged for people to make bombs, and after these craftsmen and workers passed, they didn't even have a place to live. I couldn't help urging Lao Zheng Tou again: "I have to go to Uncle Liu quickly, find some more people, and build some houses to live in......"

Lao Zheng grabbed Zhou Nan, who was in a hurry to walk out, and said with a smile: "If you wait for you to build a house, I don't know how long it will be delayed - Yun'er began to arrange for Lao Liu to build a house as soon as you left, and it was not to build a warehouse, so Lao Liu found a group of people, cut wood, and built more than ten wooden houses, which is enough for you to live." ”

Zhou Nan then remembered that he hadn't returned home for more than half a day back to the cottage, and he didn't expect that Yanjing had not yet been beaten, and he would be tired of becoming a dog.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook my head.

Lao Zheng Tou had already happily taken out the wine and food, the two sat down and drank two glasses of wine, Zhou Nan felt relaxed, and even his mood relaxed a lot.

Lao Zheng Tou drank two more glasses with Zhou Nan and asked, "Da Lang, this bomb is made, are you going to use it to attack Yanjing City?" ”

Zhou Nan shook his head and said: "It's not all, this Yanjing City, just use bombs to scare them, they will naturally retreat, and they will not stay in the city as targets." This bomb was used against the Jin people. ”

Old Zheng Tou said in disbelief: "This Jin man is even more powerful than this Liao man?!" ”
