Chapter 155: Black Powder
"Markup? Why? Wei Chi Jingde looked confused, and he couldn't wait to slap himself twice.
Okay, it's okay to provoke Li Yuanji to do a ball? Now that it's okay, the price set can be increased at will, Li Yuanji's character is very clear, and he will never be able to get a house if he doesn't give money.
"There is naturally a reason for the price increase, but don't feel wronged, when you get the house, you will find that you can get these for an extra hundred yuan, which is completely worth the money." Li Yuanji smiled, showed an underwhelming expression and continued: "This means that the relationship between the two of us is relatively good, if you change someone else, you will never give it to him without a five-hundred-hundred-thousand-hundred-hundred-hundred ”
In the face of Li Yuanji's unreasonable attitude, Wei Chi Jingde asked himself if he was not his opponent, so he could only twist his head and go silently sadly by himself.
It is true that following Li Yuanji has made a lot of benefits, but it is too exciting, and it is impossible to do without a big heart.
"Your Highness...... Recruited...... The eldest grandson Wuji beckoned ......" Luo Chen ran into the main hall in a panic, his face was ecstatic.
There is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey is called the king, since he chose to stand on Li Yuanji's side that day, Luo Chen's fate has completely changed, and now he is responsible for the overall planning of Taipingfang, Song Zhong will help him solve some problems regularly, and teach him how to deal with some things.
And the other people are very busy, and they can't even see anyone at all, so the matter of interrogating the eldest grandson Wuji and Gao Shilian naturally falls on Luo Chen, who has a lot of free time.
Luo Chen is also more concerned about this matter, and he will personally check it out every morning and evening, except for the prohibition of torture, the rest of the methods are arbitrary.
"Recruit it? Need to make such a fuss? Li Yuanji was angry and white-eyed, this product is easy to use, but it is not too calm, not a general.
"Uh......" Luo Chen's face was full of embarrassment, His Royal Highness didn't seem to want them to confess so quickly, did he do something wrong?
"Recruited? Did he really recruit? Wei Chi Jingde's surprised appearance perfectly resolved Luo Chen's embarrassment.
Seeing Wei Chi Jingde's expression that he had never seen the world, Luo Chen's heart suddenly burst into joy, and he nodded again and again, smiling with a smile on his face: "It's really recruited, His Royal Highness ordered that torture is not allowed, and the little ones are also very embarrassed, thinking about it, they can only do it in the food they eat." ”
"......" Li Yuanji's heart roared by 10,000 ***, and he frowned instantly: "You poisoned them?" ”
"No, how dare the little one poison it, just let people buy some laxatives and add them in, and in less than two days, they will all move!" Luo Chen is very satisfied with his performance, others have been interrogating for so long without effect, and he has just taken over less than seven days, and he has perfectly solved the interrogation problem, this is a talent! Give a talent who doesn't even change a piece of gold!
"Epsom ...... Cathartic? Wei Chi Jingde subconsciously covered his stomach.
Pull it for two days in a row, and I can't hold on to it if I change it, but this method seems to be really useful, but I don't know if it's too cruel?
"Well, it's a laxative, the little one has already given them an antidote, and they will be fine soon." Luo Chen said with illusion, then took out a piece of paper from his cuff and solemnly handed it to Li Yuanji: "Your Highness, this is the recipe for that thing." ”
The paper was folded, and Wei Chi Jingde's eyes widened and he couldn't see a single hair, so he could only hook his eyes on the side and be anxious.
Li Yuanji opened it and glanced at the content on it, I have to admire it, the memory of the eldest grandson Wuji is still quite good, saltpeter is seventy into five, sulfur is one into five, charcoal is fifty, and even the proportion is so clear.
"What's on the paper? Give me a look! Seeing that Li Yuanji put it up by himself after reading it, Wei Chi Jingde hurriedly rubbed it up and shouted.
"You really want to see it?" Li Yuanji smiled and glanced at Wei Chi Jingde.
Wei Chi Jingde nodded affirmatively, who doesn't want to see such a cow breaking thing?
"It's okay to see it, but the ugly words of this king have to be said first, after reading it, you are not yourself, your relatives, your children, including your wife and concubine, have nothing to do with you anymore." Li Yuanji scared Wei Chi Jingde seriously: "Think clearly and then decide." ”
Wei Chi Jingde shuddered violently, thinking of the appearance of being alone and dying alone.
He knew the importance of that thing, and Empress Changsun didn't open her mouth to intercede, not because she killed her relatives in righteousness, but because she was also very aware of the importance of that thing to the Tang Dynasty, so she had no way to open her mouth to plead, and Li Shimin also knew, so he could only take down Changsun Wuji, no matter whether this matter was a conspiracy of King Qi or not, he had to take down Changsun Wuji.
But before getting the final answer, Li Shimin will never kill the eldest grandson Wuji.
Wei Chi Jingde subconsciously shook his head, and then saw Luo Chen, who was full of entanglement, and pointed at Luo Chen: "What about him?" He knew what it was. ”
Li Yuanji was also a little disappointed, and finally cultivated a person who could barely use it, but because of his carelessness, he had to send it out again, and his depressed emotions instantly came to his heart.
patted Luo Chen, who was confused, and comforted: "For you, this is a crisis, but it is also an opportunity, this king will fight for you a five-grade official position as compensation." Go to the pharmacy and pick up these things, and pick up a few more at will. ”
"No!" Flattered, Luo Chen nodded again and again, obviously he didn't understand the meaning of Li Yuanji's words, but a five-grade official position was a huge attraction to him.
Not to mention the fifth grade, even if he is given an official position from the ninth grade, Luo Chen is very satisfied.
I don't know a single big word, and I don't have any special skills, if a person like myself can be an official, it is definitely a pie that fell from the sky.
"Are you really going to put him in charge of this?" Looking at Luo Chen's departing figure, Wei Chi Jingde asked with doubts, even if he didn't understand anything, he knew that Luo Chen was by no means the most suitable person, he didn't have this ability.
"What else? The fewer people who know about this, the better. Li Yuanji sighed helplessly, and then turned his head to look at Wei Chi Jingde: "Why don't you take a look too?" The king has believed in your power. ”
"If you don't look at it, you won't see it if you kill it......"
……
In an empty courtyard, there are only two people in the courtyard, Li Yuanji and Luo Chen, Wei Chi Jingde personally led hundreds of guards, and the entire courtyard was surrounded by water, and there were scattered patrolling guards around it, prohibiting anyone from approaching this area within 100 meters.
In the open-air courtyard, there are more than a dozen kinds of raw materials neatly arranged, but except for saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal, all the rest are useless and used to confuse the eye.
Saltpeter and sulfur are both medicinal materials, and a small amount is available in the pharmacy of the house, and charcoal is ready-made, and Li Yuanji's hot pot is inseparable from charcoal.
Li Yuanji personally commanded Luo Chen to operate step by step, saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal are all lumpy, even if you think about it with your buttocks, it can't be like this.
Luo Chen carefully knocked these raw materials into small pieces, then mixed them together according to the proportion, mixed them well, and put them in an open space, Luo Chen picked up a torch and quickly threw it on it, turned around and ran.
A puff of black smoke rose into the air, and some sounds could be faintly heard, and in a matter of moments, the fire lost any momentum, and only the torches burned there alone.
Perhaps because he thought the show was too boring, after experiencing the first experiment, Li Yuanji directly asked Luo Chen to grind all the raw materials into powder, and then mix them according to the proportion.
Another puff of black smoke rose, burning very fast, Luo Chen just ran two steps, and the movement behind him disappeared completely, Luo Chen, who didn't believe it, could only go back to check, only to find some traces on the ground, and the previous powder had disappeared.
"This thing burns pretty fast, but can it really make that much noise?" Picking up the torch, Luo Chen said with doubts on his face.
"Absolutely! Grab a bottle! Li Yuanji said with an affirmative face.
Luo Chen, who was suspicious, could only run to get a wine bottle, the bottle had been prepared a long time ago, only the size of a palm, and about one-fifth of the gunpowder was stuffed into it, and at this point it was already the most dangerous test, and Li Yuanji didn't dare to make too much movement, so as not to injure himself by mistake.
Then he took out a piece of paper, filled it with black powder, rolled it up, wound it with a thread, and finally made a seal with the cement he had prepared earlier, and passed the fuse through it to seal the mouth of the bottle.
"After igniting, you don't care about anything, you run as fast as you can, and then lie behind the shield, understand?" Igniting such a dangerous thing, Li Yuanji naturally wouldn't do it.
But Li Yuanji is also a responsible prince, even if he lets others do it, he will not careless of people's lives, and still prepares two square shields for Luo Chen, tied together with ropes, forming a double layer of insurance, and placed it about six or seven meters away from the wine bottle.
Luo Chen nodded a little tremblingly, then watched Li Yuanji stride back into the house, and then closed the door as well, leaving only a gap for observation.
Luo Chen, who was trembling all over, suddenly had an urge to escape.
Li Yuanji's reaction was so scary, he had to close the door even if he hid in the house, he was so close, would he burp directly?
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Chen finally walked there with difficulty, the half-meter-long fuse, even if it burned fast, it could basically guarantee that he would be able to retreat behind the shield.
But he was always beating a drum in his heart, worried that his little life would be burped like this, and before he was about to light the fuse, Luo Chen hesitated again, but this time it was not to escape, but he thought of a safer way.
He threw away the torch, picked up the gunpowder he had just made, sprinkled it on the ground little by little, and then buried the fuse in the gunpowder, and the other end was directly spread by him outside the house.
After this order, he can also escape directly back to the house, and he is absolutely safe.
"Your Highness, I've ordered it, hide it quickly!" 89
