Chen Wen didn’t have much requirements for eating, he just treated his stomach casually!

So after eating a few bites of dishes and stewing a few bowls of rice, Chen Wen returned to the house.

After walking out of the room, Chen Wen held the flintlock gun drawings in one hand and a small bag of anthracite made yesterday in the other!

Then he informed Chen Nianzhen and rushed towards the direction of the palace.

This time I went to the palace to meet Lao Zhu, Chen Wen wanted to report on the anthracite and flintlock rifle, and to learn about the news about the third Northern Expedition!

Forbidden City, in the imperial study room.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished lunch, he came to the imperial study room and continued to review the memorials handed over by the Secretariat today.

"Emperor! Duke Zhao Chen Wen asked for a meeting!"

Just as Lao Zhu had just finished a memorial, a little eunuch walked in from outside the hall to report.

"Boy Wen? Wasn't he resting today? Why did he come to the palace to find us?"

"You go and announce him in!"

After hearing the report from the little eunuch, Zhu Yuanzhang said strangely.

Generally, officials rarely suddenly enter the palace to be promoted when they are resting, so when they hear Chen Wen asking for a meeting, Lao Zhu will look puzzled.

But it is rare, so Lao Zhu still asked the eunuch to go out and Xuan Chenwen to come in.

"Yes! Long live the Lord!"

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, the little eunuch did not dare to neglect Chen Wen outside, and hurried out of the hall to invite someone in.

"Duke Zhao! Long live the Lord let you in!"

After the little eunuch came out, he respectfully said to Chen Wen that he was not as arrogant and domineering as the eunuchs in the late Ming Dynasty.

You should know that in the early Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu looked down on these eggless goods and killed them at will!

Therefore, these little eunuchs dare not neglect Chen Wen, one of the seven founding dukes of the Ming Dynasty.

For fear that the other party would feel dissatisfied, he would enter the hall to study his book later and make his life unsafe!

"You are kind to you, father-in-law!"

Chen Wen has always been approachable and looks kind to everyone, except for the enemies of the Ming Dynasty!

So when this little eunuch spoke politely, Chen Wen also thanked him politely.

After saying that, he quickly walked into the hall.

"Boy Smell! How about the vegetables we sent to you? That was what we planted in the palace!"

After seeing Chen Wen walk in, Zhu Yuanzhang put down the pen in his hand and asked with a smile.

"If you want to go back to the emperor, I would like to thank the emperor for your concern!"

Chen Wen was also a little surprised after hearing Lao Zhu's words.

He didn't expect that the vegetables that Lao Zhu sent to him in the morning were actually planted by himself.

Chen Wen was surprised, but he did not forget to thank him.

"Well! Boy Wen, you suddenly have to rest at home and suddenly attack and come to find us with something?"

After chatting for a few words, Zhu Yuanzhang brought the topic to the main topic.

"Emperor! This time I attacked the Holy Saint, there are two items to be presented to the emperor for a view!"

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Chen Wen remembered the purpose of entering the palace this time.

"Oh? What kind of magical item is it? I need our Duke Zhao to go to the palace in person during the rest?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was curious and asked quickly.

"Your Majesty! These are these two items!"

Chen Wen replied, then put out the flintlock rifle drawings and anthracite!

"Emperor! I feel that winter has become colder in recent years, so I specially made this new type of coal for people to keep warm!"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Wen opened a small sack in his hand and handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang and said.

"Coal? Such things can release poisonous smoke, so how can they keep warm to the people?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he asked in confusion.

He was born into a farmer and knew very well that coal burning is toxic!

So when Chen Wen talked about using coal to keep warm, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused.

"Reply to the emperor's words, I just said that this is a new type of coal that has been processed!"

"When this new type of coal is burned, it will not release toxic smoke, and it is extremely cheap!"

"If the emperor doesn't believe it, Rong Chen will demonstrate it for you!"

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was still suspicious, Chen Wen spoke up again and suggested.

"We're right!"

"Come on! Send a charcoal basin for a fire!"

Seeing Chen Wen's confident look, Zhu Yuanzhang directly approved his request and asked the eunuchs guarding outside the hall to find the charcoal basin.

"Yes! Emperor!"

After hearing the words of the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the little eunuch who had just invited Chen Wen to come in quickly and searched for the charcoal basin for the fire.

Because it is autumn and only three months away from winter, it is not difficult to find a charcoal basin for fire in the Forbidden City!

In a short while, the charcoal basin was sent into the hall by the eunuch.

Take the charcoal basin from the other party, Chen Wen put it in the center of the hall, then pour out some anthracite from the small sack, put it into the charcoal basin and ignite it!

Anthracites burn easily, and in a short while, a cluster of flames ignited in the charcoal basin.

"Interesting! It's just like what you said, this coal really doesn't have toxic smoke!"

Looking at the burning charcoal fire, no trace of smoke came out, Zhu Yuanzhang said with interest.

"This new type of coal is a blessing for the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Now we have also seen this new type of coal, and there is another item?"

Zhu Yuanzhang gave an extremely high evaluation of this anthracite.

With this anthracite in front, he was even more curious about the second item Chen Wen wanted to show him!

After all, this anthracite is so useful, and the remaining finale must be more important than anthracite!

"If you go back to the emperor, this is the second item I want the emperor to see!"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Chen Wen handed the flintlock rifle drawings stored in his body to Zhu Yuanzhang and replied.

"Your Majesty! This is a firearm that I have improved based on the existing firearms when I have free time!"

"This musket requires flint firing, so I named it the flintlock rifle!"

"And according to Chen's calculations, the effective attack distance of finished products made according to the drawings is approximately 450 meters to 700 meters!"

"This flintlock rifle is more convenient than a musket. It doesn't require anyone to ignite the fire on the side. It can be operated entirely by one person!"

“…”

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's curious appearance, Chen Wen reported to Zhu Yuanzhang with silence on the relevant data of the flintlock rifle!

"What! This drawing actually records such a magical weapon?"

After listening to Chen Wen's introduction, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but stand up and exclaimed.

This was created by Zhu Yuanzhang’s troops in the Ming Dynasty, so he still has a good understanding of firearms!

It is also clear that the distance between the firearms of the Ming Dynasty today is only within one hundred meters!

Chen Wen now told him that the flintlock rifle he invented is several times stronger than the current musket!

And according to the data provided by the drawings, the flintlock gun is obviously able to slam the existence of a musket in all aspects!

This shocked Zhu Yuanzhang!
Chapter completed!
