"Sister-in-law, even if you succeed in making this thing, you can't give it to Bing Yiren, with these things, wouldn't they be like a tiger, and it will be easier to turn their faces and attack in the future!" Duan Jingqi was shocked, if this was the case, it would go against his original intention of wanting to help Bing Qi.

Tang Meng patted his chest mysteriously, "You forgot that I asked for the list today, for this!" ”

Duan Jingqi looked puzzled, Tang Meng explained proudly, "Delaying the speed of burning loss is not that there will be no loss, as long as I calculate how many times a torch can be used and the number of strong men in the local area can be almost controlled until there are no torches left." ”

"Wonderful! Great! Duan Jingqi jumped up excitedly, and Duan Jingyi's eyes were also obviously amazing, Tang Meng could think of this step in a short period of time, this kind of thinking really didn't seem like what a deep boudoir woman should have, and this thought sounded almost seamless.

Then Tang Meng roughly asked Duan Jingyi how many torches to allocate to all kinds of people, Bing Qi's strong men were naturally the ones who received the most torches, followed by the half-grown children, and finally the women and the elderly, because the old people only needed to be the defense at the rear, and the strong men were the first batch of soldiers to guard their homes.

The few of them discussed in the front hall for a long time, and the more they talked about the other two big men, the more they felt that Tang Meng's insight and courage were by no means ordinary women, and this kind of courage and vision had surpassed the boundaries of all the women in the Prime Minister's Mansion, even Tang Chengen was afraid that he would be better than Tang Meng.

Duan Jingyi only felt that his eyes were narrowed more and more, Tang Meng could always give him this kind of amazing surprise, and then after discussing these things Tang Meng began to worry about again, after all, it is not a small amount to be able to support the people of the Bing Kingdom, if these things are bought little by little, it will definitely be too late, but if they are purchased in large quantities, they will definitely attract people's ears.

Even if they act quietly, those merchants who sell goods do not dare to sell so many dangerous things in one go, and in the end, it is inevitable that the transaction will be yellow, not to mention, they will be dragged by the traders to Jingzhao Mansion to file a complaint, after all, in order to prevent the occurrence of incidents such as arson and explosives, the palace has promulgated relevant regulations as early as when Emperor Duan ascended the throne.

Once something happens, the seller and the maker, as well as the troublemaker, will be sentenced to death, these traders have remembered this time in their blood for so many years, and no one dares to exchange their lives for money, and Duan Jingyi and Duan Jingqi both decided that they didn't want to tell Song Ming or anyone else.

After all, Emperor Duan has already made it clear that what the few of them are planning now is tantamount to resisting the will and disrespecting and doing it against Emperor Duan, if they are found out carelessly, it will be a crime to kill the head, and this kind of thing must not pull Song Ming into the water.

Duan Jingqi thought for a while and then patted his chest, "These things will be handed over to me, think about Longdu is an economic capital, and goods are sold everywhere, I just need to find a reason to detain a batch of fire folds, as long as I deduct two more batches, it will be enough for a while, when the time comes, my brother will send me a few secret guard henchmen, and then arrange a few people to send some silver taels to the merchants of the detained goods, even if this matter is done, no one will dare to go to my palace to ask for silver." ”

"That's a good move! You're learning so fast, and it didn't take long for you to become old fritters with them! Tang Meng's face was admired, although Duan Jingqi didn't know what the old fritters meant, but he also knew that it was not good or bad, but he still blushed happily.

"Sister-in-law, stop making fun of me, I haven't done such a bold thing since I'm so old, but I don't know why there is a blood boiling all over my body, which makes me feel that saving ice is like my mission, and it would be nice if I didn't have to fight anymore all day."

They thought about it for a while, and then returned to the topic of torches, Duan Jingyi was obviously more interested in torches that could reduce attrition, because after all, he was born in a marching army, and he knew the cruelty of the battlefield and knew that if he really succeeded in making such torches, it would greatly increase the victory rate for a country's army.

Tang Meng recalled carefully and seriously, because he had studied the pharmacology of some traditional Chinese medicine before crossing over, and knew that some herbs could be synthesized and some special means could be used to make paints with this effect, and he had also read papers written by some scholars, indicating that as early as ancient times, someone developed this kind of thing without the help of scientific means.

But because too much time has passed, Tang Meng was in contact with these things with interest at that time, not her own profession, so her impression of this article is extremely vague, but since there is a precedent to be found, Tang Meng naturally has a lot of confidence in his heart, as long as he works hard and experiments diligently, he may really be able to develop the same paint.

Tang dreamed for a while, and then asked Duan Jingyi, "Can you give me some time, and then give me a map of the nearby mountains, and from tomorrow onwards, I will go up the mountain with Mo Mo to dig herbs and develop coatings." ”

Duan Jingyi frowned slightly, "I'm afraid this won't work, my father is still staying in the mansion, I'm afraid that our secret agent here today is already about to attract his attention, if you disappear rashly, I'm afraid it will attract the suspicion of my father," Duan Jingyi thought for a while, and then spoke, "What herbs do you need, you can let Jia San find them, and it won't be too late for me to accompany you up the mountain after my father is gone." ”

Tang Mengmeng wanted to do what Duan Jingyi said, Duan Jingqi was also eager to try, and planned to go back from today to pay attention to whether there were any unruly fire breaker traders in Longdu, and he would be able to find a reason to confiscate the goods in a few days, and Duan Jingqi had already thought that in addition to such goods, he should also strictly inspect the things on the side, so as to reduce everyone's suspicions.

After everything was ready, Duan Jingyi said a few more words, if Emperor Duan asked to unify today's caliber, Tang Meng could be regarded as knowing how much Duan Jingyi, who looked cold and fierce on the surface, had to worry about it, although she and Duan Jingqi were more than brave, but after all, they were not as thoughtful as Duan Jingyi, and a few people had the caliber of today, and as soon as they opened the door of the front hall, they saw Steward Chen running in in a hurry.

"The prince is not good! There is a death at the gate of the palace! ”

Tang Meng was taken aback, "What's the matter, but I was accidentally injured by someone in the house?" ”

Steward Chen hurriedly shook his head, "It's not, hey!" Go and see, there's half a street of people outside! ”

Duan Jingyi and Duan Jingqi glanced at each other, and immediately thought about whether this matter would be directed at Emperor Duan, Duan Jingyi quickly ordered the government soldiers to protect the people in the backyard and then took the lead and strode to the door, but to their surprise, the person lying on the ground outside was not what they imagined, but an old man with gray hair.
