Mei Yin listened to Li Jinglong's words, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

This big nephew can really joke.

But looking at himself again, adding egg whites to gunpowder, he understood it like this, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

"How can that? This is making gunpowder, not food.

This step is called gunpowder granulation, and these are added, and then the gunpowder is made into small particles.

In this way, it is beneficial to allow the gunpowder to burn fully in a short time. ”

Mei Yin said, and started to give the gunpowder that had been put into the egg into a lumpy shape, and made it into small particles.

Then place it in a ventilated place where sunlight can reach it to dry, so that the water in the gunpowder can evaporate quickly.

The process was not fast, and it was not until the next day, that is, the day Mei Yi came to Shuangshui Village, that it was completely dry.

In the process, Mei Yin smashed the sugar she bought back and made it into small granules.

Sugar in this era is basically a large crystal.

It needs to be smashed by hand to mix it into the gunpowder.

After doing this, Mei Yin mixed these sugars into gunpowder according to a certain proportion.

In this way, his powerful gunpowder was made.

And Li Jinglong, who was on the side, was even more dumbfounded.

"Second uncle, you still say that this is not cooking?

You add egg whites to it and sugar to it, what are you doing instead of eating? ”

Mei Yin smiled when she heard this.

"You'll find out in a minute.

Your second uncle, I never lie.

Let's go, let's go to Mingyuegang, kill him, and try his power! ”

As he spoke, he excitedly took the gunpowder and the corresponding fuse and other things, and went to Mingyue Gang.

"Second uncle, do you want to ...... Let's wait for the evening, and then go when it's dark, there will be a lot of people here. ”

Li Jinglong looked at Mei Yin and said.

Mei Yin was stunned for a moment when she heard this, what does the eldest nephew mean?

Why wait until it's dark to go, and there are so many people here?

He said that he would do it with a cannon, it was a very serious cannon, what did he think of?

"That...... Your gunpowder is outrageous.

In case it doesn't work well when you get there, wouldn't it be a shame for so many people to watch it?

It's detrimental to your Mr. Mei's image! ”

Li Jinglong is still very considerate of Mei Yin, the second aunt.

Mei Yin laughed when she heard this: "Big nephew, no problem."

I believe in the second uncle, this thing of mine is absolutely easy to use! ”

Li Jinglong also wanted to believe that the gunpowder that Mei Yin made was very powerful.

But if you think about it carefully, after Mei Yin added something to this gunpowder, he couldn't raise these confidences.

Mei Yin and Li Jinglong soon came to Mingyuegang.

Think about how the people in the village used gunpowder to blow stones.

Mei Yin asked someone to take a large iron hammer used to pry the stone, and began to hit the stone slab downward.

In this way, a hole is made in the top of the stone slab.

The hole is very deep, almost one and a half meters.

After doing this, Mei Yin filled the gunpowder he had mixed along this hole.

and carefully compacted with a wooden stick.

After finishing it, the lead was put on, and the hole was sealed with a good yellow mud with moderate softness and hardness.

A long enough fuse was put in.

I thought about it for a moment, the power of the stone when it exploded.

Then they made twenty or thirty bundles of branches for firewood, and covered the hole where the fire was lit, and the stone slabs of an area near there.

And he made staves of wood on it, and pressed them with stones.

This is done to effectively prevent the explosion later, when there is a strong impact of explosives, there are stones flying all over the sky.

But even after doing this, Mei Yin didn't ignite it immediately.

Instead, they built a strong enough safe house at an appropriate distance.

While doing this, Mei Yin also asked people to go around Mingyuegang to remind people not to get close here.

And let the people here in Mingyuegang enter the safe house.

After doing this and confirming the safety, Mei Yin went to light the fire in person.

Li Jinglong took all of what Mei Yin did into his eyes.

I was very unimpressed in my heart, and felt that my second uncle was too much of a fuss.

As for the gunpowder he made, whether it could explode or not is two theories.

Now there is such a big movement, it is really unnecessary.

When he thought like this, Mei Yin had already lit the fuse and ran all the way.

I got into the safe house and waited for a while, but there was still no movement outside.

Mei Yin knew that this was because she had left the lead long enough for safety.

Li Jinglong didn't know.

He coughed, and said to the few people in the safe house, Shuangshui Village, who worked in the preliminarily designed cement factory in Meiyin:

"That...... This gunpowder was newly made by my second uncle, and it is now in the trial stage.

Even if something happens, it's normal......"

He said this to alleviate Mei Yin's embarrassment.

As a result, as soon as the words fell, an earth-shattering sound was heard!

Li Jinglong only felt that the ground was shaking, and his ears were buzzing.

So much so that the safe house has some dirt slag that falls from above......

Li Jinglong and the others, their faces couldn't help but become a little pale, and they were somewhat panicked.

Mei Yin was in this safe house, and waited a little longer to confirm that the aftermath of the explosion had passed.

Even if a rock had been blown away, it should have hit the ground long ago before it was the first to get out of the safe house.

Li Jinglong, who looked a little stunned, said, "Let's go, let's go over and see how the effect is." ”

……

A moment later, we came to the place where the explosion had occurred.

I saw that some of the large bundles of firewood were overturned.

Even though Mei Yin did these protections, there were still some stones that broke through the barrier of the firewood bundle and flew outside.

The farthest one flew forty or fifty feet!

That stone, no less than a hundred catties!

After cleaning up the covered bundles of firewood.

I saw that this place was in a mess, and there were many large and small gravels.

An irregular pit about two feet in diameter and full of large and small stones appeared in front of me.

There are also some cracks, spreading towards the surroundings.

Seeing this scene, whether it was Li Jinglong or these people from Shuangshui Village who came over, they were all stunned!

Such a cannon is much, much faster than using people to mine stones!

Especially Li Jinglong, at this time, he only felt that his brain was buzzing, and his eyes were about to pop out!

It turned out to be true!

Is this true?!

The second uncle didn't fool himself!

After adding eggs and sugar to the gunpowder, the power of the gunpowder has increased so much?!

This...... Is it still the gunpowder you are familiar with?

It's outrageous!

At this moment, Li Jinglong's worldview even collapsed a little.

After the extreme shock, he turned his head to look at Mei Yin, full of shock and admiration!

It's like watching a god-man!

The second uncle is really a god!!

Mei Yin is also happy.

I am quite satisfied with the effect of this cannon.

With this enhanced version of gunpowder, I will be able to make cement here in the future, and the efficiency will be greatly improved!

It can also greatly reduce the cost, which is really a good thing!

Li Jinglong thought more, if this kind of gunpowder is not used to blow up stones, if it is used on firearms......

That...... Is it true that the power of firearms will also become greater?

As soon as he thought of this, Li Jinglong couldn't help but get excited!

Maybe...... The second uncle can also use this credit to offset his previous sins.

That's really possible, and the second cousin will continue the relationship!

……

At noon, Mei Yin and Li Jinglong returned home.

At this time, the people who came to get the soap, and the people from the Lingxi Pavilion also happened to arrive.

Not far behind them, was Mei Yi, who rode a horse and came all the way to show off his might.

Seeing Mei Yin from a distance, the smile on Mei Yi's face became even richer......
