Dress as a villain

The story of Xie Lanzhi's return to the monkey-faced statue and Hu Xiong spread all over the place.Some people praised her for retaining the integrity of the Central Plains, not being humbled by Hu Xiong, and she is a model that a talented person should follow.

Even though Hu Xiong's territory is expanding today, it is just a momentary rush. In the future, he will definitely be driven back to the northern desert grassland.

In the Nine Jin Dynasties, the scholarly family, all the great Confucians looked down on the Xie family and were afraid of Master Xie's notoriety, but now they see Master Xie's bravery and fearlessness against a powerful enemy.Now these great Confucians in the literary circle have moved their families to Tianjing, and the children of each faction have jointly written a policy theory on governing the country, and then they are petitions to follow and serve.

There are also criticisms that Xie Lanzhi does not know the heights of the heavens and the earth, fearing that it will lead to disasters caused by the invasion of powerful countries, and wrote a letter denouncing Xie Lanzhi's behavior.You should follow the example of Goujian, king of Yue, and know how to endure humiliation.

Xie Lanzhi accepted them one by one, both the main combat faction and the main peace faction were for Xin Tianjing.

Now she and Little Phoenix don't have much territory, equivalent to two provinces.

When Xiao Fenghuang learned of this, she hinted at the scholars who defected to her and wrote a peace letter denouncing the peace faction.

The two divided labor and cooperated to create public opinion, so that Xintianjing gradually stopped the busy farming, the imperial examination, and the young groups, whether students or ordinary people, supported the Northern Expedition.

The Jingchen and Xie clans of the Jinluan Hall were mixed into two groups. The Xie clan had those who advocated for peace, and the Jingchen clan also had those who advocated the war.For a time, it was hard to fight.

Xie Lanzhi did not go to court.

Si Qitong took care of the important matters and went down to the court, letting the two groups of people argue by themselves.

Seeing that the two Lords had left, Wu Qiu couldn't help sighing, knowing that Marshal Xie was now avoiding suspicion.She began to transfer the government to His Highness, which is why she provoked Hu Xiong to return the gift.

Perhaps not only for this reason, the marshal never does things for petty profits or a good reputation to catch people's attention.She has always been cautious, long-term and far-sighted, and will not get angry because of a little humiliation.She's not the kind of person who can't bear it.

When she changed her style of play in the southern region, even her personality changed, many people in the clan and the subordinate country were ready to move and questioned her, but she still won the same fight.Rely on is a patience to wait for the opportunity.

But this time...

Is the marshal creating the entrance of the opportunity?To test Hu Xiong?

Xie Guang and others have always been the main fighters, and they have never been timid.

On the contrary, the peace faction has been bickering with their own people, more brave than going to the battlefield.But actually encountering an enemy attack is definitely not as aggressive as it is now.

"Forget it, I just need to cooperate with the Lord." Wu Qiu retreated quietly.

At this time, Xie Lanzhi was in the Ministry of Industry, and Wei Zhao and Wei Gong, the ministers of the Ministry of Industry, presented the newly finished fireware for acceptance.

Xie Lanzhi touched the fire pipe and felt that the quality of the semi-steel is not bad. It seems that Wei's iron-making technology is also advancing by leaps and bounds. If the steel produced by the light furnace converter is used, it can make a truly powerful cannon!

She explained the principle of Xie Ying's nesting cannon. In fact, Wei Zhao and Wei Gong have figured out the principle of nesting cannon long ago. It is nothing more than pressing the barrel with bamboo, and then making a cannon lead like an iron ball to fire. It takes three times to start blasting the chamber. .

Ten people were also injured in the last test, but fortunately the bomb was not very powerful and their lives were safe.

Wei Zhao reported the matter to Xie Lanzhi: "Last month, the minister and others tested the cannon, the ignition was slow, and the range was only 200 meters. At most, five shots in a row would waste one cannon."

Then Xie Ying used the cannon to kill the three generals before, not because of the performance of the cannon at all, but because of luck.The gang in the Northern Territory is similar to the Huxiong cavalry. They rely on the strength of the cavalry to bully small countries everywhere. The gang in the Northern Territory must have never seen cannons, so maybe the three tribes of Xianbei rushed under the mouth of the cannon thinking it was just a decoration, but the cannon just happened. Bombed under their feet, directly blasting them to pieces.

This is ignorance based on arrogance.However, since the cannons were laid, the Northern Territory has become much more peaceful towards the Southern Territory.

She gave the ratio of black·fire·powder 15:2:3 to the Ministry of Industry and asked them to deploy it. The Ministry of Industry quickly dispatched it, and the power was acceptable.The question is still on the cannon.

Only the fire tube has improved.

Xie Lanzhi held the musket gun that was hit by luck, and when he shot it down, there was a puff of smoke from the muzzle, and the recoil was extremely strong, requiring a lot of strength to press it down.

"There is no spring to press the barrel, the performance of the burner is poor, it is troublesome to add medicine, and it is not accurate enough." She felt hot even holding the handle.

Wei Zhao wrote down her words, and asked what the spring was and how to aim it.

Xie Lanzhi told about the structure inside one by one. Modern times strictly prohibit these mechanical things, so she has almost never touched it, at most she has touched the design drawings.Toys and drugs.

It will take a long time to restore it, even if it is barely pieced together, material technology has always been the biggest obstacle at the root.

It would be better to imitate the flintlock gun of the father-in-law.It not only has the aiming line, but also is exquisite and powerful.

As for the simple soil, the Ministry of Industry has actually made it, but beating people is all based on intuition, and the practicality is not high at all. It can be used to bluff people on the battlefield, and it can also scare the Northern Territory and the Shiguo Mansion, but I am sure about Hu Xiong. does not work.

It is not clear how many excellent weapons Hu Xiong has.

But Hu Xiong's ironmaking technology is not inferior to Tianjing, maybe even better than Tianjing.

Xie Lanzhi came back from the Ministry of Industry and told Si Qitong about the progress of the Ministry of Industry.

Si Qitong called out Lu Qing.

"Their mother and daughter have lived in Zhaixing Tower for a while, and they are under our protection. It is also time to do something for us."

Xie Lanzhi said: "Zhang Feile found out why the Mohist tycoon wanted to kill his wife and daughter?"

"If you want to kill, you don't have to send it to Tianjing to kill. It's really confusing."

Si Qitong also couldn't figure it out, but it's not hard to guess the general possibility. Either the Mohist giant is acting, or the Mohist giant is really going to kill his wife and daughter, and the Mohist giant is not so valued by Aqina that he can't even protect his wife and daughter. .Even if it is only sent to Tianjing on the face of affection, it will not be like now that the most vicious killers are hired at high prices to assassinate repeatedly.

Zhang Changle has already dealt with many masters.He even invited experts from the inner family to sit in charge.

"No matter what the current Mohists think, they don't have a good impression of Tianjing. Maybe there are internal differences." This is Xie Lanzhi's own guess. Poetry and painting are divided into various genres and styles, let alone one of a hundred schools. The more prominent Mohists.

Si Qitong said: "Leave this matter to me."

Lu Qing ate and drank with her daughter for a while, and lay down for nearly a month.Finally, he was summoned to Jianzhang Palace by his future master.

At the last big wedding, Lu Qing took the medicine she made as a gift without preparing anything.Unexpectedly, her things were immediately taken away by the poison master of the Punishment Department, and her medicine was restored.Immediately invested in too much hospital.

What she sent was Mafeisan.A pack is worth thousands of gold.

"Your Highness, you have finally considered appointing a civilian girl." Lu Qing said happily, "Are you going to send me to the Biology Sect or the Mo Sect?"

In her tone, she clearly wanted to go to the Mo School. These days, Lu Qing heard that the five gates preferred to recruit Mohist students, but there were not many Mohist students in the five gates.It's just some kinship.They are not orthodox Mohists at all.

Hu Xiong's new king Aqina firmly controlled the Mohist children, and the worst thing was that he had no choice but to travel, and it was impossible to go south.

In other words, the current Tianjing has sufficient funds but lacks talents.If you want to blame it, you can blame His Highness's Grandpa Huang for killing everything, ruining the goodwill of the entire Mo family.

Si Qitong did not arrange for her, she said: "I came to you to inquire about the current situation of the Mo family."

"Your Highness, you really want to use Mohist children, and you also value Mohist children. Minnv is really grateful." Lu Qing is actually very optimistic about this young Highness, but it is a pity that the Mohist children have settled in the north. The fresh blood of the Mohist family for 20 years They are all young people who are a mix of Central Plains and Hu Xiong. These young people have been influenced by Hu Xiong since childhood, and they have no longing for Central Plains.

To put it bluntly, the young children of the Mohist family are all Hu Huns.

Si Qitong thought it was true.In fact, she and Lanzhi had long since stopped placing their hopes on the Mohists who went north.That's why we will intensify our efforts to develop local technology.

She said: "I want to hear more about the current situation of the Mo family, it's like an invention."

"Your Highness, why don't you ask?" Lu Qing said a lot in an instant: "Liannu, fire hook and arrow, fuel cannon... iron cavalry gun."

Liannu is a combination of improved traditional bows and arrows in the Central Plains. Fire hook arrows are rolled with kerosene cloth and used for long-range projection using crossbows. Fuel cannons are used to explode the burning fire that cannot be extinguished with water.The iron cavalry gun is a 1.5-meter-long musket gun.Indiscriminate coverage can be performed within 200 meters.

These are the most sophisticated weapons Hu Xiong has invented so far.

Si Qi Tong Yue listened, and her expression became more dignified. Lanzhi once said that her world has developed from a hot weapon such as a musket gun on the battlefield, to a country that can be fired across the Pacific Ocean with huge weapons without landing on the enemy's mainland. .

She sounded appalled then.Listening to the inventions of the Mohists now, it is indeed not as destructive as Lanzhi's hometown, but it is terrible in this era.

Because they are all leading weapons.

Si Qitong quickly remembered that Xie Lanzhi said that the quality of weapons is secondary in special times, and the most important thing is mass production.

"Do you know how many of these weapons have been produced?"

Lu Qing waved her hands, obviously not aware of it: "Your Highness, these are all invented by the husband and wife of the people. Besides, apart from the abundance of food, iron ore and coal mines in the north, and the large number of people, I don't know the rest."

But she has undoubtedly revealed useful information. More iron ore means that it is convenient to make iron. There are more coal mines, and there is enough coal to provide a natural furnace.

After all, there are not as many coal mines in the south as in the north, and the most charcoal is burned.And the temperature of burning charcoal is limited.

Lu Qing thought it was ridiculous, Hu Xiong sounded so powerful, with a million cavalry, as long as a million cavalry went south, it would be enough to wipe out the remaining half of the Central Plains, so why bother with these fancy things?

After all, firearms are not common and cannot be mass-produced, so it is better to conquer them with mature riding skills.

"Your Highness, are you intimidated by Hu Xiong's notoriety?"

Si Qitong didn't understand why she asked such a question. It was an iron fact that Hu Xiong was already strong.Could it be that Lu Qing still had some news that she didn't tell herself.

"how do I say this?"

Lu Qing said: "It's very simple. Hu Xiong relied on iron cavalry to establish his country in the north a hundred years ago, and he is also famous for his iron cavalry 100 years later. It made all the small countries frightened. It can be said that he has been invincible in the Central Plains."

"Why didn't you use iron cavalry to conquer the Central Plains first? Instead, you have to invent some worthless scrap iron first."

"And the slight advantage of the Central Plains over Hu Xiong is that you attach great importance to people's livelihood and know how to extend the Mohism's skills to the bottom."

And universal love and non-attack has always been the main theme of the Mohists.Although it has not been achieved, there are very few countries that treat their people like their own.

This is also one of the reasons why Lu Qing chose to stay in Tianjing.It's not just that His Highness Feng Ning is a man of destiny, and he attaches great importance to the Mohists to attract her, but the soil of the Central Plains really nourishes people.It can raise a thousand kinds of people, and a thousand kinds of people can raise talented people who are needed in all aspects. The civilization and glory created by the established country are beyond the comprehension of Hu Xiong, who started in Beimo.

And the Mohists... disappeared in this great soil.Reduced to barbarians, discarding all the ideas of the ancestors, leaving only some tricks.Become a Moxiu family who can only make murder weapons, and sooner or later he will disappear in the dust of history.Compared with the expulsion of the Supreme Emperor 20 years ago, this time it is a real disaster.

"Your Highness, Minnen is very happy to have such an open-minded Ming Lord like you, but your force is really not enough."

Lu Qing's tone was full of regret and disappointment.Seems like it can't be changed.

Si Qitong happens to be a person who does not believe in evil: "Why don't you try to believe in Bengong? Believe in Lanzhi?"

"It's not that you don't believe it, but that you can't defeat the current Hu Xiong." Lu Qing said: "It's not that the daughters of the people underestimated Xie's military strength, it's because the weapons are too far apart."

"The reason why Hu Xiong failed to go south was because of internal affairs, which hindered Aqina's footsteps. The three kings Hu Xiong would not accept Aqina's Mohist-dominated regime, so they could not unite a million cavalry."

There are only 30 Hungarian troops loyal to Aqina, and of the 30, at least 20 are guarding the Red River.Aqina's Hungarian army was forced to this corner by the three kings Hu and Hung.The remaining 10 people are all guarding in Luochuan, the capital of Hu Huns.

If Aqina went south at this time, the three kings would definitely seize the capital from the rear and seize the opportunity.usurper.However, with only 10 people, it is impossible to directly wipe out the southern and northern regions.Therefore, there is an urgent need for the Mohist children to invent the mass production of musket guns, and by then one hundred thousand troops will win over one million.Not only can it sweep the northern and southern domains, but it can also deter the three generals.

After Aqina came to power, Hu Xiong's domestic struggle was only half resolved. At the same time, he faced the same problem in the Central Plains, and one side dominated the coveted feudal town.And the feudal town is the three kings.

"My husband has been fiddling with these things for a long time. Whether it can be mass-produced, I think the number of iron cavalry guns can be accumulated to a hundred people in three years."

A hundred executioners?Si Qitong raised his brows, if all the fire guns were so powerful, maybe a hundred people could be as powerful as 1000 people.If it is expanded to 10 people, I am afraid that there is no need to expand [-] people, and [-] people are enough to deter the king and general.

"It seems that it is only a matter of time before our Xintianjing faces Hu Xiong going south."

Lu Qing said: "Up to three years. After three years, the troubled times will be even more chaotic."

Si Qitong shook his head.Maybe in just three years, there will be movement this year.Lanzhi said that any armament needs to be tested, and it depends on the effect on the battlefield before deciding whether to expand production. Since Hu Xiong is equipped with a thousand-man cavalry gun, it means that he must choose a place for testing immediately.

And the part of Honghe is closest to the main force of Aqina.Lanzhi will also go to Honghe Merchant Capital to inspect in three months, and sign the final business agreement with Yelu Lili.

"I will remember the message you gave me." Si Qitong said: "If you want to go to the Ministry of Industry, go for the assessment, and the Ministry of Industry will recruit the candidates."

Lu Qing was speechless: "Can't we give the girl a back door?"

Si Qitong has always had a reputation for being fair and strict outside, so of course she couldn't open the back door, even if she knew how important Lu Qing was to her.

"Wei Zhao won't show favoritism, just don't worry."

"It can only be like this, but the girl is very curious, Your Highness, aren't you afraid?" Lu Qing was very puzzled. If ordinary people heard that Hu Xiong was going to destroy their own country, they would have been so scared that they would have been prepared to seek help and form alliances, trying to form a group to strengthen the family. country.

But His Highness was fine, only when she said something serious, he raised his eyebrows and had a dignified expression once.There is no other reaction.

Could it be that what she said was not serious enough?

Lu Qing tried to say it again, but was interrupted by Si Qitong, who told her: "Go, if you need something, you can go to Xiwei to find the commander."

Now Xiwei is located on the east side of the Punishment Division, which is higher than the Punishment Division’s residence, with plenty of sunlight, more instruments of torture, more manpower, sufficient funds, and more power at hand, which once became Zhang Changle’s advantage to make fun of his elder brother Zhangju.

Zhang Ju swallowed his anger and had no choice but to let the Punishment Division continue to work in silence.In order to fight back against Zhang Changle, he also deliberately pushed all the dangerous and publicity matters to Xi Wei.

At one time, the Department of Punishment was much less in danger of being targeted, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.The Punishment Department has a lot of power, so there is no need to compete with a new department for the time being.They are all working for a pair of masters, and the masters are strict, and they will not fail to see the credit of the Punishment Department.

Lu Qing didn't take her daughter to leave immediately. She was going to the Ministry of Industry to take an exam anyway. Before the exam, it doesn't prevent her from borrowing flowers to present Buddha.

"Your Highness, there is one more thing I want to tell you, Minnen."

"Say."

"Actually, to deal with the firearms invented by my husband, only one weapon is needed to calm them down."

Lu Qing explained Da Pao again, and Si Qitong felt that it was very similar to Wo Pao, but it seemed to be more advanced than Wo Pao.

Si Qitong became interested in this thing: "Is there a specific composition?"

When Lu Qing heard this, her eyes flashed, and she immediately went downhill.

She put on a embarrassed expression: "Yes, there is, but it is something more important than composition, but Minnv has a condition. Minnv's father once mentioned this condition to the late emperor, and the late emperor passed the test , and became a great disciple."

Si Qitong has heard a little about his father's masterpieces, but he rarely heard about his father's test.Mohism's rules are very strict, if there is a test, it is nothing new.

Si Qitong agreed: "If you can offer this object, I can agree to all your conditions first. But the assessment is not."

"All the conditions are unnecessary." Lu Qing saw that she was more sincere than she imagined, so as not to misunderstand that she was greedy for utilitarianism.She hurriedly said: "Actually, the Minnv just wants to imitate her father. The test set for the late emperor back then, the Minnv's test is very simple. Your Highness, you will definitely be able to do it."

Si Qitong asked curiously, "What is your test?"

"Folk girls don't have many requirements. As long as you ask the Ministry of Industry to create an original cannon, the shape is fine. Of course, it's best to be able to activate it once to show its power. And the cannon from the Southern Region can't be replaced." This is what Lu Qing said in her mouth, there are not many requirements, it is very simple.

"As long as you pass, Minnv will give you some ink skills memorized in the Mo family."

Si Qi Tong Qiao's face was full of black lines. If the Ministry of Industry could do it, then what she just said, and the crisis, would be useless at all.

Lu Qing looked at her carefully, seeing that she was silent, she wondered if it was too difficult?

She was just about to change it.

But Si Qitong agreed: "I will let the Ministry of Industry do its best to do it. No matter whether it can meet your requirements or not, it is necessary to give it a try."

Lu Qing couldn't help but look at her with admiration for this drive and down-to-earth.She doesn't need to change another troublesome one, as long as it's a simple cannon.

Anyway, can not do without the gun.

Si Qitong took the test.

It soon spread to Xie Lanzhi's ears. She was waiting for her beloved wife to come back in Lanzhang Palace, and wanted to ask for clarification.

In fact, she also has the composition of the cannon and the flintlock picture, and she can make it completely, but the power is less.Clearly lacking some sophisticated technology.Like a grinder, she can also draw pictures, but these industrial things are too advanced and need electricity to maintain power.Again, some small parts also need high-temperature-resistant materials, as well as high-explosive TNT. Of course, the current gunpowder can also be used, but it is not powerful enough and not widely used.

Materials and mass production are two major challenges.Of course, she doesn't pursue advancement, she only needs weapons that are suitable for the current situation and can be used on a large scale.

In addition, manufacturing time is also an issue.

When Si Qitong returned to the palace, she went up to meet her and was very concerned about this test: "Little Phoenix, I've heard about it. Lu Qing has presented you with a big problem."

"It's not a big problem, Lanzhi, can you lend me your help?"

If you can help Little Phoenix pass the test, you can use the nest gun casually, even if you dismantle it.

"I can help you best, but I have a new idea here." Xie Lanzhi told her the idea of ​​the second kick tube used in modern fireworks.

Si Qitong is not proficient in these things, but it does not hinder Xie Lanzhi's details. The second kick tube holder only needs to be placed in a fixed position, and the shells can be replaced by fireworks tubes. gun performance.

Si Qitong knew how powerful Lanzhi was in that era, but she never expected that the simple composition and simple design principle in her mouth would be enough to improve the quality of the Ministry of Industry.

"Why didn't you take it out earlier?"

"The invention of this kind of thing will change the current battlefield and social structure. The risk is too great. And I came here for two years before I discovered that Hu Xiong has leading weapons." Xie Lanzhi had her own consideration, she thought it was impossible in this age The appearance of a weapon that surpasses the flintlock gun, after all, the invention of this kind of thing means a great leap forward, which is too much beyond the original. After all, the first emperor is the father of the empress, and he developed the flintlock gun ahead of time.But she didn't expect that the plot in the second half was more exaggerated than she imagined. The Mohism spread, and it was another great voyage of a treasure ship, with Hu Xiong and hundreds of men cavalry with guns.

The standard flames of each protagonist were pressed on Hu Xiong by the author for no reason, making her wonder if the author is a minority?But doubt is useless, you have to find a way to deal with it.

Hu Xiong is now out of internal affairs and developing firearms, and the ambition of their great king Aqina has far exceeded imagination.

Even, Xie Lanzhi still had a suspicion, doubting Aqina's identity, maybe there was a strategist with a great strategy behind him, and the trump card of the new Mohist tycoon, but this suspicion was not established for the time being, and he couldn't just guess by himself.

From the above, Xie Lanzhi still thinks that Aqina's equipment is the standard equipment for the protagonist.

Of course, the protagonist cannot be changed on the spot.Even Xie Ying, who she replaced, was a villain, but she forced her to become the protagonist. One of the biggest villains was gone, and only Hu Xiong was left. Hu Xiong was the only villain, so the difficulty could only be increased.

It seems that the impact of her changing the plot is all here.

"Little Phoenix, I caused this incident. I will take care of it." Xie Lanzhi assured her, "You only need to hold the base camp at the rear, and I will leave the front battlefield to me."

Si Qitong looked at her deeply.Her eyes were complicated, and she was silent for a while.

She also has her own concerns.And it's all on her.

"The battlefield is never for one person, there is no difference between before and after." She did not agree to transfer all the pressure of the main battlefield to her.

Xie Lanzhi was very surprised: "Do you have other considerations?"

Si Qitong nodded: "We still have to wait for you to settle the Shangdu issue. I will tell you as soon as I have news about the hundred-man musket gun."

"I guessed in advance that things in Shangdu would not go so smoothly." So she had to make a firearm that could expand production as soon as possible before Laneige went to Shangdu.

At the same time, the Ministry of Industry quickly received a new order and composition, allowing them to produce it within ten days.

Looking at the composition, Wei Zhao and his first disciple Wei Gong felt that it was very simple and did not use much iron.The internal structure was another eye-catching, they burned it out within a day, and tried it with a fireworks tube, and the fireworks tube shot from the second kick tube seemed to be farther and louder.

And as long as you adjust the muzzle a little, you can hit things.

This brought a lot of inspiration to the master and apprentice.Maybe it can be paired with Wo Pao.

The Ministry of Industry delivered the finished product to Si Qitong on the fifth day.

Si Qitong turned to Lu Qing, her daughter Lu Qianqian pointed at the cannon barrel and said, "It's very similar to the gunner Daddy made, but it seems to be smaller than Daddy's."

Lu Qing patted her head and said, "Everything your father makes is a killer weapon, this one is just for setting off fireworks."

Xie Lanzhi just arrived at Jianzhang Palace and heard Lu Qing's words.

"If you try it, you will know if you can only set off fireworks?" Xie Lanzhi asked someone to change a fireworks tube, and she personally used a stick of incense to light the thread.

The thread leads to a quick burn all the way to the end.

Bang!The fireworks tube flew three meters high, exploded, and shredded paper fell from the sky like petals.

In the second shot, she adjusted the alignment between the muzzle and the toe of her right toe, aiming at the railing railing five meters away, and then set off the fireworks tube.A direct hit this time.

Seeing Zhuantou's eyes flicker inexplicably, Lu Qing clapped her little hands and cheered: "Sister, this thing is different from what Daddy makes. You have Zhuantou."

"This second kicker does not require too complicated craftsmanship." Xie Lanzhi did not say that as long as the shells are ready, the second kicker will become scrap iron and consumables even if it is used a few times, but iron things are not too expensive. High craftsmanship can be completely replaced by quantity.

Scrap iron can also be reused.

Semi-production can be done, and now we only need to wait for the Ministry of Industry to integrate the nest gun and the second kick tube to bring about a leap in quantity.

"Mrs. Lu, may this second kicker pass your test?" The way she asked knowingly made Lu Qing feel that this person was difficult to deal with.

Lu Qing had no choice but to admit: "Your Highness has passed the test. Minnv must pass some ink skills to His Highness. It's just that Minnv can't make it, and the current Ministry of Industry has to explore it."

Ganqing is just a person with a chemical formula.It really takes time to activate and convert them all.

Then the role of this person is just a microphone in Hu Xiong's plot?

Xie Lanzhi began to question her role.

Lu Qing felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by her eyes, so she bit the bullet and said, "Marshal, don't underestimate women."

"You also made Mafeisan?" Xie Lanzhi was very interested in this kind of thing. It didn't matter whether she could be useful in the military, and she was obviously not a figure in the military line.

Lu Qing shook her head: "I got it from a genius doctor, but I did make the Mafeisan, and the medicine is not as effective as the genius doctor's."

"And the land in the south is fertile enough to grow some poppies."

Xie Lanzhi replied without hesitation: "Yes, but we need to send troops to control it. If this substance spreads, it may become a poison that harms the people."

Lu Qing was very surprised that this man was so generous.She planted poppies in Huxiong and was disliked by others. It is better to plant rice. Even if she planted it, she would be taken away by that bastard Aqina. Aqina also used these flowers to make immortal pills.Give it to people when you see it, and use it to control some military and political officials.Many people fell for his tricks.

Later, she didn't plant at all, and Aqina sent someone to ask her how to plant.She refused and fled.

Si Qitong remained silent all this time, but she knew that the issue of the cannon barrel was half resolved.

She reminded Lu Qing: "Since I have passed Madam Lu's test, I will pass some of your ink skills to Wei Zhao's master and apprentice."

"Yes!" Lu Qing said: "I think that the Central Plains has a vast land and rich resources, and we can definitely find suitable materials."

Empress Si Qitong ordered people from Xiwei to protect Lu Qing from going to the Ministry of Industry.

Xie Lanzhi was not idle here, Wu Qiu hurried over, and he handed her the letter from Yelu Lili urging him to enter Shangdu.

If you look around, it's all about the Red River's recent rise in water potential. Merchant ships from the Southern Region have sailed into the Red River [-] times, and the navigation is safe.In addition, it is specially reminded that Si Lei, the master of Weidu, submitted a cloth deal with Honghe.

It seems that Si Lei has worked hard to support Silk this year, and it has achieved results.

Si Qitong read the letter next to her, her eyes blinked a few times just looking at the cloth deal: "Lanzhi, has Fourth Uncle's silk been reported to Tianjing?"

Xie Lanzhi felt that she had some idea, so she reminded her a few more words: "His silk is currently going to the shore for exclusive sale, that is, buying and selling, and the pricing power is also in his hands."

"Then a commercial tax should be set." Si Qitong finally stated her purpose, and she still calculated: "At least [-]% of the tax should be paid."

ten percent.That is to say, out of the 100 taels sold, [-] taels are commercial taxes.

It is Gao Run.But she needs some fees for Xie's escort, so just treat it as a business tax.What's more, Si Lei has the advantage of selling all kinds of silk from the shore, and he has to monopolize the sale of all silks, and the money he earns is like running water. It is just a small profit for Xiao Fenghuang to charge him this amount.

"Wu Qiu sent an order to Weidu to increase the business tax." Xie Lanzhi let Si Lei start for the time being, and when the silk business boomed, she would go to break the monopoly.Everything needs high-profile development first to bring prosperity.

After Wu Qiu wrote it down, he mentioned the matter of Honghe again: "Marshal, the letter from the right general Xie Ji also urged you to enter Honghe first. Otherwise, I'm afraid something will change."

Now they are being attacked from both sides, Yelvwen and Hu Xiong.Li Li was under tremendous pressure to cooperate with him. Although Bei Luo hadn't heard from him, the old Bu Khan must have been urging his son in private to put pressure on Li Li.

It really can't be delayed any longer.

She let Wu Qiu go down.

When Si Qitong heard that she was going to Honghe soon, she looked at her with a little reluctance in her eyes. She knew that Lanzhi was for their great cause, and the temporary separation was also for their peace of mind in the future. Stay together forever.

"Go, Li Jun will not rush you unless he has to. I understand him. He has always kept the agreement."

During the Tianjing Incident, the yellow thieves didn't dare to attack Si Xinian even after they made a big fuss because of Yelu Lili's backing.

Xie Lanzhi's tone was a little helpless: "I am really upset to hear my wife praise another man. But he is indeed a reliable partner."

"Also, I'm not here, you can call Xi Nian more."

Si Qitong nodded.

The two were silent for a while, looking at each other without speaking, they could understand each other's thoughts.

The Secretary of Agriculture arrived in a hurry again.

Today is the day of the second year of early rice harvest.

The Secretary of Agriculture has been promoted to a higher level since harvesting the sweet potatoes. He is now in charge of the experimental fertilizer field, and early July happens to be the season for early rice harvest.

Officer Sinon went up to his knees and shouted excitedly: "His Royal Highness, Marshal Qi, I have already harvested one mu of the [-] mu experimental field under my care."

Si Qitong immediately withdrew his gaze and focused on Officer Si Nong.

"How many stones?"

The Secretary of Agriculture hurriedly made a gesture with his fingers: "Six stones in total!"

As soon as these words came out, Xie Lanzhi was very surprised. Six stones was 660 catties. This is a mid-level achievement in modern times, and it was more than she expected.This far exceeded the record of the best rice harvest in the past dynasties in ancient times.

Si Qitong was even more agitated, she immediately asked Officer Sinong to get up, and then reported to herself in detail.

The Secretary of Agriculture told her how to make the new fertilizer. The lime powder used in the past was mixed with some urine, as well as plant ash and manure, watered and diluted, and then put on the farmland.I thought that a layer of white paint on the rice fields would dry the farmland to death, but the rice grew more vigorously, and it was three inches taller than before.

The [-] mu of land that was handed out was already fertile, and the usual output was three stones and one or two buckets, but now it has doubled.

In addition, the barren farmland was also poured with new fertilizers, and three stones per mu were harvested. Normally, two stones is already a favor from God, but even the barren dry land has three stones, which is simply a miracle.

It just so happens that the late rice is in late July, and the early rice can be planted after harvesting.Now it is only [-] acres and the harvest is good. There are tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in Dajin, not to mention the Southern Region.

The fertile fields in the southern region can grow about four stones per mu. If new fertilizers are used, it is estimated that it will really break nine hundred catties.

This means that there are two to three rice crops a year in the South Region, and with the help of this new fertilizer, it is likely to double the total grain.The total output of the Southern Region is 2000 million tons, which will increase to about 4000 million by then.Adding in the annual production of 200 million tons in Tianjing and Gejin, that is 400 million tons.The population of the Southern Region is more than 3000 million, and the average per capita is [-] catties of rice, which is completely enough to supply the total population of the Southern Region, Tianjing, and each branch of Jin to have a meal of white rice a day.

"Lanzhi, I need to go out of the palace to have a look in person." Si Qitong turned around and let Officer Sinong lead the way, and she was in a hurry to leave the palace.
