Chen Mu did a big deal.

The Japanese pirates were forced to buy more than 100 taels of silver before they were warmed up in their arms. Chen Junye was very willful and scattered most of them to Guangdong Prefecture to buy a few small items. When he just learned that Chen Mu wanted him to do this, Shao Tingda thought that Chen Mu had been shot by the Japanese pirates' bow and arrow, and just wanted to go to the Guangzhou Prefecture Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau to invite Cheng Hongda to see Chen General Qi's injury.

Of course, warming up in your arms is just an adjective. Chen Mu would not be so stupid as to hold it in his arms that he would have to be dumped into a pot after walking like that.

"Guan Jiang, you said you could grind it out. Chen got the things, take a look."

Now the Guan family and his son have their own craftsman's workshop, located near the construction site of the future village, near a small stream, including a blacksmith house and a carpenter's house, plus the residence of their family of seven and a small warehouse, which enclosed a radius of six meters. The 300 acres of land on the other side of the stream are Chen Mu's private land.

However, the craftsman is still just a prototype. There are only a few simple huts built by father and son. The iron furnace and carpentry house have been built. Chen Mu's "General Banner Office" has not been built yet, so there is no free labor to build the craftsman. However, in terms of planning, Chen Mu wanted to make the surrounding forest land at least 15 feet a radius of craftsmen - craftsmen are very important, and he also needs to find a way to recruit more craftsmen.

Now the three craftsmen are just enough to use, and if there are too many, he can't afford it, let alone use it. But it will not be certain in the future. Chen Mu estimated that he would have at least ten craftsmen of all kinds in his hands in the future to provide his various needs. No matter how many, he would not be around his own 300 acres of land, but would have to move the craftsman's house to the bank of the Beijiang River.

Hydraulic power is sometimes better than human power.

Chen Mu spread his palms, two pieces of white crystals the size of a small baby's palm, are smooth and transparent.

For crystal chips like this, he asked Shao Tingda to take a hundred taels of silver ingots to Guangcheng and spend more than 70 taels to buy five pieces, and to travel back to Qingyuan, which is not unpredictable. Sometimes too many small inventions in my mind make people more confused. Burning sand and glass does not sound difficult, but it is not easy for Chen Mu to know nothing. He thought about it and thought that this would inevitably put a lot of time, energy and money.

But in the spring of the first year of Longqing, Chen Mu found that what he lacked the most was time.

He aimed at his second prey after Bai Yuanjie, Tan Lun, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, like a novice hunter, who was later called the civil servant of the country's Gancheng during the Wanli period. Chen Mu's memory was one of the few understandings of this era and his experiences in this life. Qi Jiguang, Tan Lun, Zhang Juzheng, and an emerging faction of the Ming Dynasty saw the details in the eyes of the Qingyuanwei General Banner in the five ridges southwest of the great country.

In an important part of this, Tan Lun, the governor's office of Zhaoqing Prefecture, which is located across the Qingyuan River, will soon go north to prepare for the border.

This is the first time Chen Mu saw the opportunity to go straight to the sky. If he couldn't seize it, it might be his last chance in his life. And seizing this opportunity lies in the two crystals in Chen Mu's palm.

This is the same thing as the lenses he saw at the Guangcheng Optics Store, but the price is slightly cheaper. The unprocessed crystal chip is priced at twelve taels per piece. If everything goes well, it only takes one and a half pieces to achieve his goal. But he is afraid that it will not go well, so he taught Shao Tingda to buy back five yuan for later use.

On the paper handed to Guan Yuangu, he drew a large, two small and three convex lenses with charcoal pencils. He just used two crystal pieces and left some edges and corners. Although he had thought it was possible that this would fail, he couldn't help but feel distressed when he was here. He repeatedly reminded Guan Yuangu: "You must polish it and be transparent, and there must be no mistakes!"

He wanted Guan Yuangu to polish three lenses to make a monocoal telescope that was imaging, dedicated to Tan Lun who was about to go north to take the lead.

Although he had not thought about how to offer the telescope after it was made, and even did not know whether it could be done well, he had already expected the rewards of giving strange things. The expectation was that there would be no return in the short term - will it be too expensive if it looks familiar to you?

Chen Mu thinks this is completely worth it, at least for now, he is not that short of money.

Guan Yuangu had helped a senior official in Qingyuanwei polish a glass cup, but he himself didn't know whether he could complete the mission of making lenses that Chen Mu had assigned him, and even what the "lenses" were? He couldn't figure it out.

"Don't worry, the old man must do his best. Even if he can't polish it, he will try to carve other things and sell it as a pendant, which may increase the price." Guan Yuangu tried his best to think about how to save money for Chen Mu. After all, he was a full-time blacksmith carpenter, not a glass craftsman, and he was not very sure. Chen Mu was very relieved of him and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, try to polish it, and then talk about those things when it won't happen in the end."

Then Chen Mu asked Guan Zun's class about doing a cow-pulling planter. He was told that one would be ready in seven days at most and would not delay the farming work. Then he was relieved to leave. On the other side of Tianlong, Fu Yuan, who had just recovered from the wound, drove a few ox carts and shouted towards the 300 acres of private fields. He said a few words to his flag soldiers through the stream. Seeing Chen Mu taking off his boots and stepping on the stones and jogging over the stream.

"Hey, the general flag has been transported twelve, no, fourteen cylinders of wastewater." Fu Yuan picked up his iron helmet and scratched his hair under the net towel. It was obvious that counting more than ten is a very difficult task for him. He turned his head and was driven by curious scratching his head, saying, "General flag, can the dead salty wastewater make the rice grow bigger?"

What kind of dead salty wastewater is called potassium fertilizer!

No, how did Fu Yuan know that it was salty?

"Did you drink it?"

So potassium nitrate with low content is also potassium nitrate. Can chemical solutions be drunk at will?

As soon as Fu Yuan nodded, Chen Mu pressed his head into the stream. He drank a lot of water and kept howling with his teeth and claws: "Just, just drink, a little!"

Later, Cheng Su Fu Yuan was suffering from diarrhea.

"Tell everyone that you are not allowed to drink that thing, and the two bald men in the cave, and the nitro powder are not allowed to eat. Yes, there is no need to drink this stream. Guan Jiang sets up a few stoves by the stream. I will give you a few Yu Ding Xiaowa boiling water here every day, and then pour it into a large tank. Whoever is thirsty comes here to pick it up."

Under the red sunset, the busy farmers in the fields raised their heads to wipe their sweat. In the distance, Shiqi waved the small flag and bird gun team burst out again with smoke. Giant trees fell in the forest and formed rows of houses in rows... The smoke from cooking also rose from Anyuan Station when dusk fell.

Chen Mu stretched contentedly and turned over the horse.

The picture in front of him brought him an unparalleled sense of accomplishment, which is what his central defender should look like. Perhaps in the future, the people living here will be well-dressed and full, and the flag army will be highly trained and combat power, and will no longer be scared by dozens of Japanese pirates and hide in the city and tremble.
