Chapter 569: The so-called red face and troubled water
Chapter 569: Visiting My Daughter (Page 1/1)
As for how powerful the gunpowder is, Yuan Xi doesn't have much concept in his mind, no matter what, he will do it first anyway.
The more secret weapons there are, the better the chances of winning the war.
For example, the stirrup before has always been Youzhou's secret weapon now, and in this war, Yuan Xi feels that it will definitely be able to play its due role.
rushed to the Huang Mansion, Yuan Xi told Huang Yueying what he thought.
Huang Yueying really liked these strange things, but when she saw what he said, she couldn't help but ask, "Is it really so magical?" ”
"Hehe, I just have this idea, you are very knowledgeable, I will give you the formula, you go and try it?"
Huang Yueying smiled: "You can't get it yourself, why are you looking for me?" ”
Yuan Xi said solemnly: "This matter has to be kept secret, and if this kind of thing is invented, it will be a great invention, but you can't let this technology be known by others, don't I rest assured of you." ”
Although Huang Yueying felt that he was bragging, she was still very happy in her heart, and said, "Okay, you tell me what the recipe is." ”
"Well, the formula of this gunpowder is the ratio of one nitrate, two sulfon, and three charcoal, and well, potassium nitrate, sulfur, and charcoal powder, have you ever heard of them?"
Yuan Xi had these confused concepts in his mind, but the specifics were not clear.
Huang Yueying frowned and said, "I know charcoal powder, what is sulfur?" Also What is potassium nitrate? ”
Yuan Xi was dumbfounded, and said in his heart If I knew what it was, I would still ask you?
Seeing that he was also puzzled, Huang Yueying smiled and said, "You don't know yourself, do you?" So you know this ingredient so well? ”
Yuan Xi was embarrassed, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled: "You come with me, maybe someone knows what this thing is." ”
Huang Yueying had no choice but to follow him out of the Yellow Mansion.
She felt that Yuan Xi was quite neurotic, and she didn't know where to get the formula, and she didn't even know what it was. She now has serious doubts about the prospects he has expressed.
The two rode horses and ran all the way to the Taoist temple of Daoji.
When he arrived at the door of the Taoist temple, Yuan Xi didn't care about Huang Yueying, walked in happily, and then found Daoji and asked his doubts.
Dao Ji was also confused, but after all, a master is a master, even if he is confused, he will not show it on his face. After saying to Yuan Xi, he went out to his study to check the information.
Yuan Xidu drank a cup of tea, and Huang Yueying walked in slowly.
"How did you get here?" Huang Yueying looked around and found that the environment here was quite good.
Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Haven't you heard of the Taoist priest of alchemy?" Some terms we don't understand, maybe people understand. ”
Huang Yueying didn't say anything, but she wasn't very optimistic about what Yuan Xi said.
The two sat down and drank tea slowly, and after a long while, Dao Ji walked in, smiled and said to Yuan Xi: "Yuan Zhoumu, the sulfur you said is stone flowing yellow?" ”
Yuan Xi said in his heart, where do I know, but this Shiliuhuang is stained with the word sulfur, so he said: "Where can Shiliuhuang get it?" ”
Dao Ji understood in his heart and said with a smile: "This is the word in Fan Li's "Fan Zi Jiran" written by Fan Li in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is also a thing that people in my Taoism alchemy. ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly said: "I need a lot of these things now, can you help me collect a lot of them?" ”
"This?" Dao Ji was slightly stunned, and said for a long time: "It can be, but it needs some money." ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly asked, "How much?" ”
"One thousand taels of silver, how much Yuan Zhoumu wants."
Yuan Xi glanced at it suspiciously, what is so valuable? How many more and how much? But at this time, I couldn't care so much, so I nodded and responded.
"You go to the Huang Mansion on the East Side to pick it up, and then get a cart to send it to the Huang Mansion first."
Dao Ji nodded in response.
Yuan Xi asked again: "What about potassium nitrate?" Do you know what it is? ”
Dao Ji was really embarrassed this time, shook his head, and said he didn't know.
Yuan Xi was a little disappointed, it would be good if his brain could remember the formula of this gunpowder, and the superfluous ones were really a little brainless.
"Then trouble the master. Try to do it as quickly as possible. Yuan Xi didn't stay long, and left Daoji Temple with Huang Yueying.
On the way, Huang Yueying asked, "What if there is still one left?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "There may be someone who knows, I plan to go to Xining City to have a look." By the way, how has the recent grave robbery been? ”
"There was a small harvest, but there was no big theft."
"It's okay, take your time," Yuan Xi said with a smile: "Let them have the idea to protect themselves, uncertain and very dangerous tombs, try not to enter them recklessly." ”
Huang Yueying said with a smile: "If this is the case, it is really impossible to make a fortune with this in your life." ”
Yuan Xi pointed to his eyebrows, "It's just a matter of urgency, as long as we keep these people and protect them, we won't earn less than one time in the future." ”
Huang Yueying smiled, but did not refute. Although she does not approve of Yuan Xi's methods, this is what she particularly appreciates about Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi said goodbye to Huang Yueying and returned to Fuzhong, planning to go to Xining City the next day, but he hadn't been there for a long time. I don't know how my daughter is, and Xiao Qiao, if I haven't grabbed it at this time, I'm afraid I'm already married, right?
Of course, the most important thing is Zhang Ning, if Zhang Ning has a little knowledge, he should know more than him.
However, Yuan Xi didn't have much hope for this matter, the most important thing was that he missed his daughter a little. This is his only daughter, and none of the women in the house have deliberately avoided pregnancy now, but after such a long time, none of them have given birth to children.
Yuan Xi has already taken the problem to himself, can't everyone be pregnant? To say that Zhang Zhongjing, Hua Tuo and even Zhang Yingfeng have seen it many times, but he has not checked out any problems with his body. made him somewhat helpless.
Because of the problem of gunpowder, thinking of his daughter, Yuan Xi couldn't sit still. Cao Cao couldn't beat him for a while, so Yuan Xi made up his mind to go to Xining City tomorrow to have a look.
......
With the improvement of Yuan Xi's status for industry and commerce, and the recruitment of a large number of carpenters, the craftsmen of Youzhou made a lot of defensive equipment. But there are fewer offenses.
Like what a chain of defensive crossbow arrows, large bows, and improved catapults. Now they have been heavily equipped on the walls of several counties on the front line.
Now almost the entire Youzhou knows that Yuan Xi is always ready to fight this defensive counterattack against Cao Cao, so when Yuan Xi said about the gunpowder, although the women in the mansion didn't understand, they didn't say anything.
