Chapter 40: Wang Erdao

Chapter 40 Wang Erdao Armament Department temporarily needs to prepare for the excessive, Hu Lin can be roughly apportioned, in fact, he knows very little, really calculated, he has also reached the junior high school level, but in the last two years, he has been wandering in the country and has been exposed to a lot of things, so he will not know as little as the students in school.

After the scope of the formation is determined, each department will select it by itself, and temporarily set it at 100 people, Li Tie is in charge, and he doesn't have to be the person in charge, anyway, he is under his own command, and he still listens to himself.

"Okay, you should pay more attention to the selection of personnel by the Ministry of Armaments, who of you here understands gunpowder, or who knows who understands?" Hu Lin asked in a deep voice.

The people present, you look at me, I look at you, and they don't speak, so they know that after the affairs of the Armaments Department are handled, they will talk about gunpowder, and the question is who are the people here, and everyone knows in their hearts that no one plays with gunpowder.

"Boss Hu, most of the people in our engineering team know about gunpowder, but they know how to use it, as for the production of gunpowder, I'm sure no one will."

Chen Rui, who is engaged in construction, will naturally encounter the use of gunpowder to blow up the mountain, but these are all ready-made products, and if they want to build them now, they naturally can't do it.

"Brother Hu, you know the origin of our people, as far as I know, no one knows how to make it, but the old man knows that there is someone who understands this."

"Oh, who is that, since you know who it is, let him make it!" When Hu Lin saw that someone really understood, his face was overjoyed, and he finally found a professional.

"This, in fact, this person is a Taoist priest, on the mountain thirty miles to the west, quite powerful, Taoist temple has hundreds of years of incense, there are a lot of people in this Mashan County to worship."

"How do you know that this Wang Er Taoist priest can make gunpowder?"

"In fact, the firecrackers in our county are bought in the hands of his apprentices, and there are shops in Mashan County, if we want to find someone who knows better, I'm afraid it must be Wang Erdao, Taoist incense is vigorous, and there is a firecracker business, I'm afraid..." Li Guangchou replied.

"Uncle Li means that this Taoist priest is not easy to invite?" Hu Lin instantly understood what Li Guangchou meant, it seems that this Taoist priest will definitely not go down the mountain easily, let others give up the Taoist temple to do things for you, this is a person from two societies, and it is indeed a little troublesome.

"Yes, this Taoist priest is the second oldest in the family, so everyone calls him Wang Er Taoist priest, few people in the Mashan area do not know, we have invited him when there is a catastrophe in our village, even if there are people from several nearby counties, there are people who come to ask for the law."

After Yang Ziyan finished speaking, more than a dozen other village chiefs also nodded their heads, expressing their agreement, and the nearby funeral feng shui would invite them, so they naturally understood.

"Then I'll go for a trip and meet this Wang Erdao priest in your mouth."

In fact, Hu Lin can find some people in the school and the engineering team to make gunpowder, there are modern formulas, and the materials are easy to get, so you don't need to find this Taoist priest to produce gunpowder, but Hu Lin has been wandering around for two years, and he understands professional things, and he has to be done by professional people, since this Taoist priest can make firecrackers, he has a better understanding of the process of making gunpowder.

Although it is primary gunpowder, it is ** at most, but with an understanding of gunpowder, it is easier to get started and speed up the progress by accepting the new formula, and there is already a primary production, and it is much easier to change some advanced explosive formulas.

Now if you want to speed up the progress and find a professional person, you have to get this Taoist priest back first, otherwise Hu Lin can only cultivate it by himself, or go to the imperial court and go to the foreigners to dig people, and it is of course better to use people nearby.

More than 30 kilometers away from the west of Pingshan, carved beams and warped tiles, heavy eaves rest the mountain and quaint Taoist temple, Hu Lin and Li Tie, and a few guards stand under the long steps.

Looking at the Taoist temple on the top of the steps, Hu Lin was full of emotion, in modern society, these have long been smashed, maybe it existed, but it is gone, don't let people have the opportunity to destroy the treasures left by these predecessors in the future.

Hu Lin stood at the foot of the stone steps for a while, and the Taoist boy at the gate above saw that Hu Lin was dressed in military uniforms and equipped with weapons, and he didn't come up again when he stood below, so he quickly turned around and ran towards the Taoist temple.

"Distinguished guests are coming, there is a loss of welcome, this way is the Lord King's arrival, please inside."

Hu Lin stood for a while, and a man in a Taoist uniform came out of the gate of the Taoist temple, and when he saw Hu Lin, he wanted to invite in.

Until now, Wang Lin and Wang Erdao priests don't know what Hu Lin is doing, if he wants to do it, burn incense and so on, why he still comes in person, and when he comes, he only stands outside, and has no intention of coming in.

Don't look at Wang Lin who has never seen Hu Lin, he only listened to the description from Dao Tong's mouth, and guessed seven or eight times, the person who can have Li Tie standing behind him and have weapons to protect this posture must be Hu Lin, a great benevolent man in the mouth of the villagers recently.

"The Lord of Wang Guan is disturbed a lot, and the Lord of Wang Guan comes out to greet him, it really shouldn't be, please!"

Hu Lin wanted to take a good look at this Taoist temple, but he didn't expect Wang Lin to come out to greet him, and hurriedly replied.

I am a little embarrassed to ask for others, but I am still digging into the corners of other people's walls, and I am a little embarrassed, but in order to find someone who knows more about gunpowder, I can only do this.

A small Taoist temple will not be put in the eyes of Hu Lin, but talents are rare, so he came to the door in person, Hu Lin lived in an era when talents were scarce, and naturally knew to lower some of his status.

Approaching the Taoist temple, Hu Lin felt the Taoist heritage, the jade view, this mountain gate is a stone three-coupon arch, the three door holes symbolize the three worlds, stepping into the mountain gate means jumping out of the three worlds, into the fairy cave. The stone wall of the mountain gate is carved with patterns such as flowing clouds, cranes, flowers, etc., and its knife technique is strong and exquisite.

Sitting in the ancient guest room, Hu Lin observed the furnishings in the house, and looked strange, there was no chance to visit it in modern times, and now sitting here, you can naturally feast your eyes.

"General Hu is interested in our Taoist temple? If you don't choose a place for the general to cultivate with good feng shui, the world will be troubled! ”

Wang Lin saw Hu Lin staring at the room and looking at the house, as if he was very interested in these furnishings, if he brought in the message, it would definitely be of great benefit to his Taoist temple.

Knowing that Hu Lin is now the actual controller in the area of Mashan County, and he is also a big financier, if he wants to build a place for cultivation, he will not be short of silver, and with Hu Lin by his side, his Taoist temple will be much safer.

"Lord Wang Guan, this is temporarily exempt, but I heard that you have a firecracker business in the county, but I don't know if the business is good."

Hu Lin didn't think about becoming a monk, he was too busy to do business, how could he have time to sit and watch the scenery, and then turned the topic to the firecracker business.

"Oh, it's okay, General Hu is interested in my firecracker business? If this is the case, even if General Hu takes it, I still have some money in my opinion, and I usually donate some money, but I can still get by. ”

Wang Lin saw Hu Lin mention the firecracker business, and when a person like Hu Lin came to the door to mention it, it was likely that he liked his own business, if Hu Lin wanted it, it would be good to take the initiative to send it, and he could still get a personal favor, if Hu Lin took it away, I am afraid that he would not have good fruit to eat.

"What did Lord Wang Guan say, how can I ask for the business of your Taoist temple, this is the main income to maintain your Taoist temple." Hu Lin saw that Wang Lin had misunderstood him, so he immediately teased.

"This..."

Wang Lin couldn't guess what Hu Lin meant, and he didn't know what to say later, what Hu Lin wanted, he would naturally say it later.

"Actually, I have a fancy to the king, the king, the king, the lord, you!!" Hu Lin suddenly forked his words and turned to Wang Lin.

"Huh? Fancy the poor road? What did General Hu say? ”

After Wang Lin heard Hu Lin's words, he stood for a while, where is this, if you fancy your own business, you can bear the pain and give it, and don't fight with the officials and soldiers, this is the way to survive.

But what does Hu Lin mean now, if he looks at himself, does he have an opinion on the Taoist temple and not let the Taoist temple exist in Mashan County? Suddenly, Wang Lin's face was flushed, his hands and feet trembled, the Taoist temple has existed in Mashan County for nearly two hundred years, if Hu Lin wants to demolish this jade Linguan, the foundation of the ancestor will be destroyed in his own hands, how can he be worthy of the ancestral master, and he has no resistance at all.

Even if the bandits want to make trouble, they will give some money at most, and the bandits don't dare to really do anything to the Jade Linguan, the Taoist Temple still has some self-defense, and they are also afraid of the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao in the dark.

But if Hu Lin is different, a foreigner is dressed up, if you want to talk about silver, the people in the entire Mashan County are receiving Hu Lin's favor, and they are also paving roads and building houses, how much can they give? If it is resistance, let alone it, there are foreigners' foreign guns, and there are no bandits near Mashan County, if you really don't let yourself stay, then you can only leave.

No wonder as soon as he entered the Dao Yu Lin Temple, he looked around, as if these were already Hu Lin's, and suddenly Wang Lin seemed to be convinced of Hu Lin's meaning.

"What, General Hu wants us to come to the temple?" Wang Lin's face stiffened, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Huh? Why did Lord Wang Guan say this, I just said that I am interested in you, not your jade Linguan, don't worry! Actually, I came to you because I wanted you to help me prepare some gunpowder, there are many kinds, and you need people with experience to do it. ”

Hu Lin saw that Wang Lin misunderstood what he meant, and he was afraid that he would be far away, so he simply explained the purpose directly, anyway, he still had to say it sooner or later, so he wouldn't be polite with Wang Lin.

"Just mix some gunpowder, this is easy to say, I let the two disciples and the general go down the mountain, and now they are involved in the gunpowder on the firecrackers, I want to help General Hu you!"

Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be a matter of gunpowder, but he didn't expect that when he was researching the elixir, he wanted to come out and do the firecracker business, which actually attracted Hu Lin, I don't know if it was a blessing or a curse, since Hu Lin wants someone who can make gunpowder, it will be a disciple to go, and he doesn't have to go down the mountain by himself.

"No, no, Lord Wang Guan, the gunpowder I want to make is not used for firecrackers, I'm afraid your apprentice really can't catch up with you, this time I came to invite you down the mountain, just to make these special gunpowders."

Hu Lin naturally didn't come to ask for two people to do anything, otherwise why would he come over in person, call someone casually, donate some silver, and you can get someone, and the people here in Yulinguan don't know themselves, and they won't go against themselves.

Since he came, it is natural to put Wang Lin, who is more familiar with the principles of these stone medicines, this is a talent, and to use Wang Lin's old Taoist experience, it is not what those people in Pingshan School have learned, and these experiences that have been explored are not something that can be learned from books.

Otherwise, what is the use of so many experiments in the physical chemistry class, it is not to enlighten these students, and they will have a foundation when they do other experiments in the future.

There are a lot of such talents in modern times, just find a college graduate, and it is better than the people of this era, and there are many people in the people, this is not time to collect for the time being, that is a matter of the future, and the foreigners will not consider it, the formula brought by the modern era, but they can't let them know, who knows if it will be deliberately leaked news, revealed, for safety, it is naturally better to find acquaintances.
