The formula of gunpowder is not even accessible to ordinary people, let alone to get it, and it is only possible to get it by finding Zhu Biao, who is the crown prince.

If you can't even get the Zhu Biao, it will be difficult, and few people can get it, and there will be big problems in the production of firearms.

Iron alone can't make firearms, the number can't keep up, there are more bullets, it's useless, after a battle, everyone at most, more than 100 bullets will be used, this is a lot, so the number of firearms must not be less, otherwise it will be greatly discounted.

"What do you say? Are you going to make firearms? ”

Zhu Biao's eyes were full of surprise, although he heard Zhu Zi say that he wanted gunpowder, with his understanding of Zhu Zi, he could also guess that it was estimated that he was going to make a firearm, but he was still very surprised when it really came out of Zhu Zi's mouth.

Making firearms, but it's not so easy, gunpowder is only the first step, and it will be more troublesome later, and he doesn't know why Zhu Zi suddenly had this idea.

Firearms are very powerful, but strong is powerful, if it were so easy to do, they would have already solved the war by tomorrow, and they would not have continued to march north until now.

"That's right, now that everything is ready, it's just gunpowder, as long as you get the formula for gunpowder, it won't take three years, and this year, you will be able to solve the problem of Haikou."

"Big brother, there aren't many people I know, as long as you can help me."

Zhu Zi nodded affirmatively and began to play the emotional card.

If there is no arquebus, it will indeed take three years to be able to solve the problem of the pirates, this year is the second year he came to Qiongzhou, as long as the gunpowder can be self-sufficient, start mass production of firearms, do not have to wait for next year, this year will be able to solve the problem of the pirates, this is not a big talk, is enough confidence in firearms.

He could see that Zhu Biao had some concerns, and he had no choice but to play the emotional card, after all, this trick had never failed.

"I know that you are dedicated to the people and the Ming Dynasty, but the formula for gunpowder, even if it is me, it is not so easy to get it."

"That's it, the smelting method of iron, I can give it to you first, but I can't guarantee the formula of gunpowder, I will definitely be able to get it, I will use all the relationships and energy in my hands to find it for you, if you can't find it, you can't blame me."

Zhu Biao pondered for a while, but couldn't resist Zhu Zi, and sighed lightly.

Whether he can get the formula of gunpowder, he doesn't know, after all, he has never touched anything in terms of firearms, and he can't promise Zhu Zi that he will definitely be able to get it, but for Zhu Zi's sake, he can only try his best to give it a try.

If Zhu Zi simply wanted gunpowder, then it would naturally be fine, but what Zhu Zi wanted was the formula for making gunpowder, and the difference would be big.

"Big brother, with your words, I'm relieved, I believe that big brother can find it for me."

"It's got to be you, or I really don't know, what to do."

"Come, this is for the Qiongzhou specialty brought to you, watermelon."

When Zhu Zi heard this, he instantly smiled.

He is afraid, Zhu Biao does not agree, as long as he agrees, then everything is easy to say, with Zhu Biao's ability, it is not easy to get a gunpowder formula, that is the crown prince of the dynasty, the first heir, what do you want, that is not just to open the mouth, you can get it, just a gunpowder formula, what is difficult.

"You kid, if you are polite to me, I know that it will be good for you to come to me."

"Watermelon? I also know how to bring gifts, and I have grown. ”

Zhu Biao glared at Zhu Zi angrily, then said with a smile, looking at the emerald green watermelon on the table, revealing a puzzled look.

"Wait, I'll open it for you."

Zhu Zi picked up the watermelon, directly forced, and broke it open, Zhu Zi's strength was extraordinary, with a little force, the watermelon was split into two.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Zi broke out another piece and handed it to Zhu Biao, his hands were covered with watermelon juice, and he didn't care too much, and handed it directly to Zhu Biao.

"It smells so good!"

As soon as the watermelon was opened, Zhu Biao smelled the rich fragrance, his eyes lit up, he took Zhu Zi's watermelon and ate it directly.

He would never eat food outside the palace casually, even if the food in the palace needs to be checked before eating, but the person who gave him food was Zhu Zi, and he didn't doubt at all that there was a problem.

"It's so sweet! It's so delicious! ”

"Bring me some."

After Zhu Biao took the first bite, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly ate the rest, and then smiled and looked at Zhu Zi.

In the palace, I have never eaten any delicacies from the mountains and seas, but the watermelon brought by Zhu Zi is so delicious, it is better than the food in the palace.

"Don't worry, no one will rob you, all for you to eat."

"I also brought you some watermelon seeds, after I go back, let the next person plant it, and every month in the future, you can eat it, and you can eat it whenever you want."

Zhu Zi smiled.

If you want to capture a person's heart, you must first capture his stomach, yes, and now Zhu Biao's stomach has been captured by him.

"It's still you kid, thoughtful, remember to give it to me when you go back."

"Suddenly so good, is there something else?"

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Zi suspiciously, and always felt that Zhu Zi still had something to say.

"No, am I that kind of person?"

"I'll tell you a good news, Dongfan has now been taken by me, blocking that gorge, and there will be fewer Haikou in the Ming Dynasty in the future."

"This time, just those two things, and I will give you good news."

Zhu Zi shook his head and said with an unhappy face.

It doesn't matter if you say it, and it's not to tell anyone else, it's his eldest brother Zhu Biao, not an outsider.

Maybe in the future, on the issue of Dongfan, there may be trouble with Zhu Biao.

"It seems that you kid, leaving the imperial capital to go to Qiongzhou is really premeditated."

"The little imperial capital, I can't trap you, I have long seen that your heart is no longer here, so it's okay, the outside world is your stage."

"But these things you have done are not small, remember, don't leak the news, if you let your father and the civil and military officials know, these things you do will cause a lot of turmoil."

Zhu Biao said with great emotion.

The entire Ming Dynasty, except for Zhu Zi, I'm afraid there is no second person who dares to be so bold and do these things, but they have already done it, and they are still going in a good direction, as the eldest brother, it is not easy to stop him, so he can only support it silently.

"By the way, there's a gift."

"This, called the pulp washing fruit, is a rare and great tonic, if you have any discomfort in the future, or if you are seriously injured, you can eat it, the effect is immediate, and it can save your life."
