Chapter 53 Laughing

Zhao Kuangyi did not listen anymore, grabbed a war horse from the forbidden soldiers and said to them: "Go to the palace to report to Your Majesty."

He slapped his horse and ran towards Donghuamen.

Along the way, I saw many people standing blankly on the street, at a loss. Some people even knocked over the stall because of panic. Zhao Kuangyi didn't care. It was a million kilograms of iron. With it, the country's national strength would immediately increase a lot.

The horse was fast, and he arrived at Dongshuimen in a short while. There were many forbidden soldiers standing beside Dongshuimen, across the Dragon Hunting River. I wonder if I would take care of it or not. Zhao Kuangyi shouted: "Don't panic, that's the mineral development that the court developed."

What does it have to do with the court? It can also be said that Song Jiu was an eighth-rank prosecutor from the court after all.

The horse rushed over the broken stone bridge and arrived at Hezhou. He saw many people standing there, with more than 100 students, as well as more than 50 yamen, Han family, Murong family, Fu family, Song family, Guo family, Yang family, Xiang family, Wang family, Zhang family, Wu family, Chu family, Cao family, Pan family, and Zhao Kuangyi all knew them. It seemed that Song Jiu was doing a good job, and the team was gradually expanding, but the situation was not very good at the moment. The yamen and the students stood there as if they were stunned, with their heads, faces and bodies covered in mud, and they all seemed to be stupid. Song Jiu said anything, but he didn't hear or see.

When I saw Zhao Kuangyi coming, I finally woke up.

Xiao Cao and Pan Weizheng opened their mouths and cried loudly.

Fu Zhaoshou walked over and pulled Zhao Kuangyi's arm: "Brother-in-law, it's amazing, it's amazing."

The child was probably not awake either.

Zhao Kuangyi shook his hand, waved his hand away, walked to Song Jiu and said, "What are you doing?"

"The matter of mining has been studied."

"You're very disturbing. The whole capital thinks it's an earthquake."

"That's just a cannon, what are you afraid of?"

"What kind of firecrackers are nonsense?"

"Second King, look."

Zhao Kuangyi looked in the direction of his finger. There was a big pit ahead. Because the soil in Hezhou was wet, it started to swell up, but not much, and the pit was two or three meters deep and several meters in radius. Zhao Kuangyi was a little confused. Song Jiu waved his hand and several students ran to the house with full office in the distance, and soon carried out a large wooden box. It was a bit heavy and the bar was bent.

Seeing this big wooden box, a few young second-generation ancestors suddenly hid behind their respective brothers, and seemed to see a demon coming.

Song Jiu waved his hand and more than a hundred students began to dig holes.

Dr. Zhang said: "Song Jiu, you are here again."

"It will be applied on a large scale in the future, and the technology is still not mature. Not only will it come, but it will also be tested continuously."

“What is it.”

"I haven't thought of the name, the second king can call it black gunpowder."

"It's the earthquake it caused."

"How could it cause an earthquake? It's just a little louder and makes everyone feel illusion."

There were many people and great power. Soon a pit was dug again. Several students put down the box. There was a piece of bamboo tube outside the box. There was a long fuze outside the bamboo tube. If Zhao Kuangyi didn't think of the firecracker, he said it, and it looked very similar, but it was thicker and darker. After operating it, without Song Jiu's instructions, many students began to cover the box again with mud. Then they pressed some new soil on it, like a giant tomb. A student trembled and led the fuze to everyone. Song Jiu ignited it and said to Zhao Kuangyi: "The two kings lay down."

"I'm wearing official uniform."

It’s not okay to wear official uniforms. Fu Zhaoshou and Song Jiu pressed Zhao Kuangyi to the ground, and Song Jiu said again: “Two kings, block your ears.”

Zhao Kuangyi didn't know what happened. He might have seen that the others were lying on the ground and kept their ears tightly with their hands. When he thought of the loud noise, Zhao Kuangyi also covered his ears with his hands. The fuse quickly burned to the mouth of the bamboo tube exposed outside, and quickly flashed into the tube without seeing. Zhao Kuangyi saw that half of the people closed their eyes and didn't even dare to look. While he was curious, a loud noise came out, and it was not enough to cover his ears with his fingers. His ears were buzzing, and he could hardly hear the sound outside. With the large mass of soil and the grass rose up to the sky, almost covering the sky. In fact, it was very far away, but the surrounding terrain was restricted, and the rivers were mostly low-lying. Song Jiu used the high slope to build a house, so it was impossible to test it in the house. So when he got here, the terrain was low-lying and it was relatively humid. Perhaps Song Jiu was intentional, maybe he was unintentional, and in short, he chose this place.

The mud and rain began to fall.

Fortunately, it was far away and its power gradually weakened. Although it was painful on its body, it was not very powerful. The mud rain covered a large area. The mud bars fell continuously and fell on everyone. Zhao Kuangyi roared: "My official uniform."

No one could hear it, nor could he hear what he was shouting, and his ears had not yet recovered.

Another huge pit appeared.

This power also scared Zhao Kuangyi. It took a long time to get up with everyone, and he was also confused. After a while, Zhao Kuangyi suddenly burst into laughter.

"Brother-in-law, are you okay?" Fu Zhaoshou asked worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, good things, good things, good things," Zhao Kuangyi said. Song Jiu only saw that mining. If the power is so powerful, it's not just mining, digging mountains and digging roads, and many mountain roads can be built. It can even be used for river workers to deal with those stubborn stones. Mining stones can also be used for military purposes. But Song Jiu is not very clear about it. If you use gunpowder bags, the distance between the catapults is close, and it may not work. Besides, if you pour a basin of water on it and put out the fuse, the gunpowder bag will lose its effect. After all, it is not a detonator. Or to make artillery, the technology is more complicated. I don't know many principles, but I know that this era is cast.

The craftsmanship is also suspicious. It is okay to blow up the city wall. Hong Xiuquan used a coffin to install black gunpowder to knock down the Nanjing city wall and attacked the city of Nanjing. However, the black gunpowder with higher power and higher quality also requires technology. The air pressure generated by the explosion must be directly rushing against the city wall to have an effect. It is estimated that the level of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty is difficult to master. In fact, in Song Jiu's mind, the biggest enemy of the Song Dynasty was the Khitan. The remaining countries in the Central Plains could easily be taken down without gunpowder. However, Khitan was a nomadic people. In addition to dealing with the Youzhou city wall, this trick did not work in the wild. Song Jiu would not care about how to use it in military terms, so that the craftsmen in the court could find a way.

With some innate conditions, gunpowder appeared in the late Tang Dynasty and was also used in military affairs. Rockets were burning objects, not explosives. Gradually, the people used them to make firecrackers. There were gunpowders in the Song Dynasty. The three materials were impure and the proportions were not correct. I don’t know whether their power was sealing, so now there is only one gunpowder weapon or a rocket!

Song Jiu began to purify the nitrosodium and sulfur, and could only use the original method of local purity. It took more than ten days to pellet it while debugging. The amount used during debugging was very small, and it was also rolled into firecrackers. So the yamen runners thought that Song Jiu was firing firecrackers every day. It was only a few days later that the original granular black gunpowder was confirmed, and the purity was still not high, but the proportion was definitely correct. Zhao Pu did not let go of the eagle without seeing the rabbit, but Zhao Kuangyi explained that he still didn't let go of the eagle without seeing the rabbit. Song Jiu was holding his breath and did not shout, but invited the group of yamen to Hezhou in the name of hunting. Not only did he hunt together, but he invited you to eat bread at night. Hunting is a favorite, and he wanted to eat bread even more. As a result, more yamen came.

Then I told you that I made a good thing for you to show. I told you that a group of yamen didn't take it seriously, and they didn't cover their ears. Some were still standing, and they were not mentally prepared. So I exploded and ended up being shocked.

Song Jiu rubbed his ears and said, "The second king, where is the grave?"

Ten pictures were drawn, but the tombs were not moved, so I dared not paste them, so I could only reopen the first picture and replace them with old paintings. I cannot paste them. Once they are posted, they will pay attention to Hezhou. There will be many greedy people. If the ownerless tombs are not taken seriously, the problem of the tombs of civilians is not great, but there are some powerful tombs, and there will be opportunities when they have to be moved, and the trouble will become greater and greater in the future. As long as the ten pictures are posted, Zhao Kuangyin wants to move the capital but cannot move it.

"You boy, every time the court takes your things, it's hot," Zhao Kuangyi finally stopped laughing, and he rubbed his head. He didn't come out and thought about it. When he came out, he also had a headache when he thought of relocating the grave. He didn't think about it for the time being and said, "Song Jiu, take me to your house to take a look."

"The two kings, there are many people and mixed hands, please pay attention to this technique..."

"Too."

Song Jiu said to everyone again: "Everyone, let's go back, I will make bread for you to eat."

Everyone was frightened and had to comfort their wounded hearts.

"Let's go, eat bread," Zhao Kuangyi said. The boy only made bread once, and it was so evil that he said it was delicious in the sky, but he was embarrassed to force him to make it. Today, he could finally taste it. The group laughed and walked back. After the fright, his natural psychological reaction was that Zhao Kuangyi laughed the most cheerful and happiest.

The second explosion alarmed more people, but in fact, the city began to panic at this time. I don’t know how many small stalls were knocked over by the people who escaped from the house. The guards of Dongshuimen also walked across the Gulong River. Zhao Kuangyi waved his hand and said to them: "You send me the order quickly, saying that the court is developing and developing minerals, and it has been successful. It is not an earthquake, so don’t let the people in the city panic."

This is relieved.

"Here." The soldiers replied, but they looked at the embarrassing crowd of people, and they covered their mouths while sending orders back. Under the gaze of the crowd, more than a hundred people entered the river, and the streets were still full of people. They were surprised to see the group of people coming. Someone looked sharp and whispered: "Isn't that the Second King and Xiaojiu?"

"The Second King? Could it be that the Second King took them to roll the mud pond?"

"You kid, I lost my good image together," Zhao Kuangyi said depressedly.

"Two Kings, think about the gold, silver, copper, iron, tin and lead, and you can just have a secret fun."
