Feng Yuanyi was frightened by the million-dollar gold, his face turned red for a while, and he waved his sleeves and left.

In the evening, Feng Yuan was still angry at first.

Bringing everyone to the ruins of the ancient city in front of Mengcheng Pass, Dugu Xinci asked Ah Gou to bring a bunch of bamboo tubes at will, plug one end with some soil, put some gunpowder, and then use a cotton thread soaked in fire oil to probe in, seal it with some soil, and tell the big bear to take it, Ah Dog lit it with flint, and then bang, a ball of fire spewed out, but it was also sparkling, but the sound was like a mosquito's chirping, and the fire was less than three feet.

But what's the use of that? Who would buy such a thing with a bang and it's over?

Seeing that the general manager of Lijingmen was about to reach the edge of the storm, Dugu Xinci hurriedly took out a few more fireworks tubes that had already been made, these were really different from before, wrapped in colored paper, and two of them were also painted with patterns, which looked exquisite.

Still the bear is lifting. A dog lit, the cotton thread burned out for one or two breaths but there was no movement, everyone was wondering, suddenly saw a fireball spewed out of the mouth of the tube, made a snorting sound, rose to the air and suddenly exploded, a huge fireball appeared in front of them.

Everyone froze, the fireball disappeared after two or three breaths, and another fireball rose into the air and exploded with a snort, and the larger ball of light was extremely bright, illuminating the middle of the winter night.

Feng Yuan was stunned, Qin Chong and Duan Yun were also stunned, the hairpin envoy and hairpin flower lang of Lijingmen, and the Zhongsun family villagers of another village all looked at the sky as if they were looking at miracles, hoping that what they saw just now was just an illusion.

Feng Yuanyi, the chief manager, snatched one of the bamboo tubes, first took a closer look, and summoned a warlock hairpin Hualang to see if there were any traces of magic.

The hairpin warlock looked sideways and nodded after looking vertically, "No spell or formation fluctuation"

Feng Yuanyi ordered a hairpin to be held and lit with flint in person, and after a while, the sky rose again with gorgeous fireworks, this time the fireworks actually had red, yellow and white, and the fireballs were even more colorful after they burst.

Duan Yun quietly took a fire, this one was with the Drill Sky Monkey, the fireball dragged in the air and the long white tail scurried in the air in a serpentine shape, so frightened that Duan Yun's hand trembled, the mouth of the cylinder hung low, and a fireball flew over the heads of the people, and it exploded on the hillside, and the bluffing people lay down, and Dugu Xinci was also furious, "You want to burn a villa of a certain person?" ”

Duan Yun sneered, and there was a hairpin that ran to check where the fireworks fell, and there was only one dark mark.

The hairpins continued to instigate their own chief managers to set off fireworks, and Dugu Xinci ignored himself, leisurely lighting a cigar and swallowing the clouds.

Feng Yuanyi ordered to release three in a row at this time, and he also personally took a bamboo tube and stretched it into the air. For a while, the sky was bursting with brilliant fireworks.

There were some clouds in the sky, the crescent moon appeared and disappeared, a string of balls of light flew up into the air, suddenly exploded, and suddenly the sky was full of flares, and there was a sharp voice rising into the air crackling, leaving a star-like path of light, and then an orange multi-layered flower like a fireworks cloud and flickered and flickered.

The effect of the three roots really made the sky sparks even more gorgeous, and everyone was dizzy to see. It's a pity that the fireworks are too short-lived, but perhaps that's what makes them gorgeous.

It wasn't until there was nothing to put in that Feng Yuanyi, the chief manager, threw away the bamboo tube and laughed at the sky.

"How many people? How many materials do you want to give? A certain to collect, there is only one, before the first day of a certain need for a large number of this thing"

Dugu Xinci didn't bother to take a look at this middle-aged and elderly person who was intoxicated by the instant splendor of fireworks, and summoned a few craftsmen from Lijingmen to begin to explain the production methods and principles of fireworks tubes.

The appearance is easy to make, and the fireworks are not much difficult, mainly the fancy presentation of fireworks.

First of all, the ingredients, and gunpowder slightly different proportions, and different proportions also have different effects, again is the auxiliary materials, adding all kinds of dust will have different effects, charcoal powder, iron powder, copper powder, and rosin resin and other substances can also produce different effects, as well as flour and the like can also be tested, of course, gold and silver powder can also be tried, of course, if it is found by the general manager Feng and did not kill you, etc., you can try the scientific expedition.

Then there is the production process, how to ensure safety is the most important, and it is also important not to explode in a large number of storage and handling.

The self-contained things that can enter the Lijing Gate, especially those who deal with gunpowder, are more than Dugu Xinci, and a few people have been exposed to gunpowder for an even longer age than Dugu Xinci.

Of course, at that time, it was called the sulfur fire method, and it was rumored to be the formula of the medicine king Sun Simiao when refining medicine, and then found that changing the formula ratio would cause a huge explosion, so he was collected by Lijingmen A group of people began to improve this method.

It's a pity that after twenty or thirty years, there are countless formulas, and there are very few that can really be practical, so when Dugu Xinci's formula appeared, Feng Yuanyi, the general manager of Lijingmen, was like a treasure, because the silver money spent in this area in the past twenty or thirty years was really more than 10,000 gold, and Feng Yuanyi's real gold was only 6,000 taels, and the rest didn't want to come out, but Dugu Xinci proposed to pledge the house property and other things, Feng Yuanyi also prevented Dugu Xinci from keeping a hand, so he took advantage of the situation to do a personal favor.

It's just that I didn't expect Duguxin's compassion to be too dark, one sulfur, two nitrate, three charcoal, and white phosphorus as a fuse. Wan Jin finally got twelve words.

But it is these twelve words that make Lijingmen's gunpowder research have made a qualitative leap, whether from power to stability, to the final practicality, Dugu Xinci's method has a guiding direction, these twelve words make Lijingmen's gunpowder craftsmen like classics.

But when it comes to the diversity of formulas, a hundred Dugu Xinci are not as good as these craftsmen, and the accumulation of twenty or thirty years is not a small amount.

Anyway, the process is explained clearly, a few craftsmen began to make, knowing the program, the production process is of course simple and abnormal, and after a while, a few fireworks bamboo tubes made by Lijingmen craftsmen themselves were born.

Five fireworks tubes were tested on the spot, and one exploded on the spot due to too tight sealing, but fortunately, the power of gunpowder in this ratio was really limited, and it only made the hairpin Hanalang holding the fireworks break a little skin.

One exploded in the place where the height of the zhang was more than a foot high, and the fireworks were bright enough to startle everyone, and several people in the center of the field were also made disgraced by charcoal ash, but the maker was elated, proving that this side can be practical if it is improved one or two.

Two fireballs rose into the air, but no fireworks appeared, only one of them had a small flower in mid-air. Such an achievement made Feng Yuanyi smile like a daisy.

Dugu Xinci instructed the hairpin envoys to sort out the scene early tomorrow, thinking about it, he still threw a few formulas to Feng Yuanyi, the Duke of Qi, and took Duan Yun and Qin Chong to play mahjong.

Feng Yuanyi, who was excited all night, urged his subordinates who were also excited to experiment hard in the winter night, anyway, this kind of fireworks didn't cost much material, and Dugu Xinci kindly prepared a lot of bamboo tubes.

All kinds of whimsical ideas were gradually realized under the supervision of the chief manager of Lijingmen, until the light of day, the excited Feng Yuanyi put the tired craftsmen to rest, and asked the hairpins to urge the craftsmen to make a batch again after noon.

Feng Yuanyi was really excited, this night was really not in vain, and the results of the experiment had at least reached the level of Dugu Xinci.

When Dugu Xinci was running in Huazigang in the morning, Feng Yuanyi stopped him and told him that it could be produced in large quantities, Dugu Xinci was still a little puzzled, especially when Feng Yuanyi arrogantly said that the fireworks made by the craftsmen of Lijingmen were more gorgeous than his Dugu Xinci, Dugu Xinci blinked his eyes, and finally chose to believe, because if there was an argument, he was afraid that breakfast would be postponed until noon.

Dugu Xinci carefully tasted a bowl of boiled lean porridge in the lake, the meat was eroded in the porridge, and the whole bowl exuded aroma.

"Where are you going to make it?" Dugu Xinci had food in his belly, and began to tease the excited Manager Feng.

"Well, of course...."He suddenly realized that this was no longer his Lijingmen's territory, although the owner of this place was the guest of Lijingmen, and this place belonged to Lijingmen more than a month ago.

"Can I borrow a house in Rim Chuan for a purpose? Anyway, there are a lot of mansions here" Feng Yuan also felt that it was in vain as soon as he said it, with this son's nature, not to mention borrowing his territory to make fireworks, it is to let the people of Lijingmen stay on his territory for a few more days, he is afraid that he will have to drive away.

Sure enough, Dugu Xinci squinted and stopped talking.

"Isn't this a discussion?" Feng Yuanyi sneered, "Why don't you sell the piece of land in Shanmen to Lijingmen again, and give you shares?" Give you back the mountain gate, so can it be done? ”

"Gunpowder is a dangerous thing," Dugu Xinci looked at Feng Yuanyi's gray hair and sighed, "Who wants to have such a powder magazine in their own home?" I don't embarrass you, there are three options for you to consider."

"The first option is for you to give a little benefit, so if this incident has not happened, then a thousand gold can be regarded as supporting Lijingmen, after all, Lijingmen was created by a saint, and supporting Lijingmen is to support a saint, and there is no loss. Thou shalt immediately, well, move out of the Rim River before noon."

"In this way, you can set up a separate workshop, anyway, the formula is also with you, you have also sorted out a lot of formulas, and the funds are enough, you will lose or earn in the future, and there will be no entanglement with you, you can make a fortune and make a lot of money with peace of mind, and you can also live a free life in this Rimchuan business."

Feng Yuanyi had also thought about this kind of plan, and one or two hairpins had also mentioned it vaguely, but Feng Yuanyi immediately rejected it, not because he was afraid of turning his face with Dugu Xinci, but because he was worried that there were other important issues with this firework that Dugu Xinci would keep a hand on.

Besides, this son has an active mind, this is just one of his businesses, and the Demon Wolf Tianxing can make the Far East Merchants Bank the largest commercial house in Yantang in that barren land in the Far East, and there must be something outstanding.

Far Eastern Merchants Bank last year to divide shares, Li Jingmen itself participated in a hand, but limited by funds, the shares are limited, even if this limited shares this year also allow Li Jingmen to have a fat year, at least on the first day Feng Yuanyi can straighten his waist and let his subordinates pay New Year's greetings, no longer like in previous years, some of the old subordinates of Li Jingmen even have to rely on the Qi State Mansion to play autumn style.

Others stared at the business and funds of China Merchants Bank, a certain stared at the founder, others stared at how to divide the eggs, and a certain took away the egg-laying chicken, Feng Yuanyi praised his choice.

Dugu Xin Cihun didn't know that he had become the chicken that laid eggs in the heart of Manager Feng, so he just stared at Feng Yuanyi with a smile.

"What kind of person does the Hou of Far East think of? I can't do anything about crossing the river and demolishing the bridge."

Feng Yuanyi's righteous words, but Dugu Xinci praised him weakly, "Your courage is too small,"

Feng Yuan almost jumped up in anger, a certain timidity? This is the first time Yan Tang has commented on a certain one?

"The second plan is outsourcing" Dugu Xinci hurriedly proposed the second solution "The so-called outsourcing is to subcontract the various processes to others to make, such as bamboo tubes, package to so-and-so, this final assembly to so-and-so, the final transaction is also handed over to so-and-so, Lijingmen as long as the core is the prescription, and then sit and wait to collect money"

Feng Yuanyi frowned a little when he heard this, wouldn't there be someone else to share the profits?

"This recipe will be leaked sooner or later, and the production method is even easier to learn, no matter how strict Lijingmen is, it can't cover it up for three or five years, and there will be such a big profit?"

"Hmph, is it very profitable?"

"Naturally, Qi Guogong thinks that a tube of fireworks can be sold?"

Feng Yuanyi, the Duke of Qi Guo, calculated that the cost of this gunpowder was two or three Wen at most, and the bamboo tube and soil were even more worthless, so he doubled it, "Well, Wuwen has to be sold, right?" ”

Dugu Xinci sighed secretly, and looked at Manager Feng with the eyes of the mentally retarded, "You don't count the labor, transportation, and sales costs?" ”

"Uh, how much do you say you can sell?"

"Old Duan, Old Duan" Dugu Xinci ignores "Duan Fat"

"You're called a fat man again?" Duan Yun came out of the wing room and said sadly.

"It's almost the first day, do you want to buy a few fireworks and go back to play?"

"Ah, there's something for sale? How many? Duan Yun blinked his eyes, he was interested, he knew that this was a business between Dugu Xinci and Li Jingmen, but in order to avoid suspicion or not to provoke Li Jingmen, he never inquired. Is this your sale? How many sticks to send to play with someone? ”

"While you go, you still take it with you to eat and drink? How much does a hundred texts need? ”

"Baiwen, it's not expensive, it's all the same as yesterday? Then come first with a hundred" Duan Yun is bold.

"A hundred? It's only enough for the first day, don't let go of the Lantern Festival? Don't you want those relatives and friends and concubines? ”

"Oh, too, five hundred, that's... It's fifty dollars, hey, you're really black? A discount, twenty times? ”

"Do you want to love, a certain and your is still the internal price, and it is not this price if you go to the east and west markets to buy"

"If you want it, you must want it, five hundred roots say yes, someone will send money tomorrow, and it can be made beautiful."

"Hehe, it's more beautiful than you imagined, you can show off on the first day of this year, hundreds of fireworks are blooming, the Baoguo Mansion is a smallpox that blooms in countless months, and the fire trees and silver flowers never sleep."

"Well, that's that, but you have to get it better."

The two talked nonsense, and Dugu Xinci sent Duan Yun away.

Feng Yuanyi's heart is like 10,000 black water horses wading by, a certain one said that Wuwen already feels black-hearted, this product is actually Baiwen, or is it an old friend he knows, and if it is 500? Fifty times is in hand, what about the cost? Is there a consistency?

This Baoguo Duke in Chang'an City is still a medium title, and there are not 1,000 people like this but 800, how much? 50,000? No, it's 500,000 yuan, that's 50,000 gold? Counting the fragments and counties such as Puzhou and Luoyang, I am afraid that selling this fireworks this year alone can reach 100,000 gold, no, it must reach 100,000 gold!

Yan Tang Qi Guogong, the general of the Imperial Lijing Gate, and the general of the Forbidden Army's Left Prison Guard, Feng Yuanyi's outlook on life was subverted, he never thought that earning Kaiyuan Tongbao was so simple, and he looked eagerly at Dugu Xinci, who was still drinking porridge and eating pickles, like seeing a dragon guarding treasures.

The ceiling blooms in countless months, and colorful auspicious clouds surround the platform. The stars scattered when they fell to the ground, and the rain whirled into the air.
