Looking at the intimate movements between the two, Tina's heart also moved. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Miss Tina, I don't lack gold coins and supplies for the time being, if you are really sincere, then exchange saltpeter for it."

Feeling the faint body temperature coming from the palm of Xie Erlei's hand, Chopin also forcibly suppressed a trace of restlessness in his heart, and then glanced at the other party, and spoke a little indifferently.

"Saltpeter, what's that?"

Hearing Chopin's words, Tina asked with some confusion.

"Ahem...... According to the name of your sea, it should be called "iron pulp". ”

Although I carry the bug-like existence of "Empire: Total War" with me, this is not a game after all, but a living world.

There is no so-called consumption of bullets and shells for line infantry and artillery in the game, but in this other world, the soldiers he summons, whether they are line infantry or artillery, will carry a lot of ammunition.

However, no matter how many lead bullets and shells there are, there will be a day when they are exhausted, but compared to those guns that are fired only occasionally, the rate of consumption of lead bullets is undoubtedly faster.

However, in comparison, lead bullet is much easier to make, and gunpowder must be made with certain materials.

Charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter, these are the necessary materials for making gunpowder, and the optimal ratio of the three, 1.5 to 1 to 7.5, is not a secret in Chopin's time, well, to some extent, this should be the necessary knowledge of the major farming streams.

The sulphur mine Chopin's own drifting island is there, and the preliminary mining has been completed, and as for charcoal, it can also be made.

Generally speaking, there are two ways to make charcoal, one is cellar firing and the other is dry distillation.

Compared to the latter, the former is undoubtedly much simpler.

The so-called kiln firing method is to build a kiln with clay, fill it with wood, and burn it from the kiln door or fire gate, so that the wood is carbonized in the kiln, and the volatiles escape and the charcoal remains.

This method of manufacturing is not a problem for France today.

Therefore, the only thing that bothered Chopin was saltpeter.

The essence of saltpeter is potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate, but without saltpeter, the production of gunpowder is afraid to fall into a bottleneck.

Although there is no saltpeter mine on the lazy island where he is located, it does not mean that there will not be this mineral on other lazy islands.

Although there is no so-called saltpeter on the endless sea, since someone in this world has invented similar firearms, it means that saltpeter definitely exists.

And after Sherlet's side knock, Chopin also learned that this otherworldly saltpeter is called iron slurry in this world, so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to find saltpeter, it's just a matter of time.

However, since there is such a large chamber of commerce around him now, Chopin naturally does not mind making good use of the resources in the hands of the other party.

"Saltpeter, no problem, we should have a certain amount of reserves in the Lawson Chamber of Commerce for this kind of ore, but how to exchange it, there will naturally be other people to discuss with you at that time."

"In that case, I won't bother you two, hehe."

Before Sherlay could react, Tina glanced at Chopin meaningfully, and then withdrew.

And when there were only the two of them in the room, a charming aura slowly rippled.

Xie Erlei was shocked at this time that her palm was still holding Chopin, and she subconsciously wanted to break free, but with her strength, how could she open Chopin's shackles.

Seeing that she couldn't break free from the clutches of her palm, Xie Erlei also looked at the other party angrily, and her delicate little face was flushed red at this time, but before she could react, the tall body in front of her leaned in like this.

The four eyes looked at each other like this, and time seemed to freeze for a moment, and then, a little caught off guard, Chopin's lips tapped on Scherleigh's bright red lips like dragonflies.

And at the moment when the two sides touched, Chopin could clearly feel that the other party's body couldn't help but tremble, that feeling, as if hesitating, and like ...... Expect.

"Knock-"

With the sudden knock on the door, the two of them were like frightened white rabbits, and they immediately separated.

"Come in!"

"Your Majesty, according to your request, the first batch of temporary resettlement residences on Drifting Island has been built, do you want to start the relocation of the inhabitants of Viscount Rare's Drifting Island immediately?"

After Kit came in, he looked at the two of them who were both flushed in surprise, but he quickly reacted to something, the originally raised head leaned down slightly, and then said respectfully, but the slightly strange smile on the other party's face still made Sherlay can't help but glance at Chopin fiercely.

"This is not in a hurry, but the later construction of the resettlement shelter should be accelerated as much as possible, and in addition, the preparation and transportation of relevant materials should also be stepped up."

Chopin frowned and thought for a while before thinking again.

Because he had to negotiate with the Lawson Chamber of Commerce about the mining of red gold on Viscount Riel's Drifting Island, Chopin was not in a hurry to integrate the other party's Drifting Island Light Core into the Drifting Island Light Core under him.

And compared to randomly obtaining a certain resource on the opponent's drifting island, before merging, he can scavenge all kinds of resources on this drifting island to his heart's content.

However, among them, Chopin is not the wealth that Viscount Riel has accumulated over the years, but the population of the island.

During the period before and after Chopin occupied this drifting island, many residents fled by boat because they were afraid, and so many people fled so scattered, whether Chopin wanted to or not, with the current forces in his hands, he would definitely not be able to stop them, so he simply went with them.

However, most of the islanders still choose to stay on the Drifting Island, not because these residents are not afraid of Chopin, but because they did not find a good time, and there are not so many fishing boats and merchant ships for them to travel.

And the second is because the residents who chose to flee before have some inexplicable and complicated relationships with Viscount Riel, and they are afraid of the revenge of the new lord, so they are a little panicked to flee here, but for those ordinary residents, no matter how the lord changes, it will not have much impact on them.

But these inhabitants were very important to Chopin!

ps: I've been a little bit of a card in these two chapters lately, and I've been thinking about it for a long time, and it's hard to write, so I'm really sorry.
