Crossing over reveals a waste's difficult journey home

However, although he was satisfied, Jiang Tuan had a headache looking at the two thick things in his mind.

He can now barely recognize some of Daxia's characters, but it is still difficult for him to write them word for word.

Besides, the paper had not been made yet, and the writing brush was still a writing brush. If he were to use sheepskin and a writing brush to write on these two thick things, he estimated that it would take him forever.

He now really wants a printer, a printer that can print out what is in his mind directly. With such a thing, all problems can be solved. It is so convenient and quick.

However, Printer Jiang Tuan just thought that getting that thing would probably not be much easier than going home by himself, so he decided to hand the problem over to someone else and go to Jiang Qi tomorrow to ask him to think of a good solution.

……

Jiang Qi heard Jiang Tuan say that he had suggested that the system change the way it collected energy, and he rarely praised the other party's wisdom.

Later, when I heard the other party say that he had exchanged something else from the system, I was very confused.

"Ancient steel smelting technology, gunpowder production method? Steel, you told me before, what is this gunpowder?"

Jiang Tuan said steel is something better than Jijin and iron, so what is gunpowder? Something that can be compared with a sharp weapon like steel should not be a simple thing, right?

"Your Majesty, gunpowder is, um... how should I put it? Your Majesty, have you ever seen thunder and lightning strike the ground during rain?"

I have seen it before, how could I not have seen it before?

From the end of the Chen Dynasty to the establishment of Daxia, during the hundred years or so, almost all disasters have occurred in the Central Plains one after another, and extremely severe thunderstorms are just one of them.

A few years ago in the summer, for some unknown reason, there were many strong thunderstorms, and many trees in Ningping City were struck by lightning and caused fires.

Jiang Qi himself had once witnessed a bolt of lightning strike a sturdy tree. He still remembers the sound vividly.

"You mean, this thing called gunpowder has the same effect as lightning?"

Jiang Qi suddenly stood up and walked in front of Jiang Tuan. The heat in his eyes almost scared the other party to take two steps back.

"Your Majesty, it's different, it's different, just somewhat similar. Of course, if you make powerful gunpowder, it can really split mountains and rocks, or blow up city gates and walls.

For a more powerful one, it is not impossible to destroy a city."

Jiang Qi couldn't imagine splitting mountains and rocks and destroying a city, but he felt that he could look forward to blowing up city gates and walls.

When he unified the country in the past, when he encountered enemies hiding in the city and refusing to come out, in addition to using strategies, sometimes he had to send out a large number of soldiers and generals, and after fierce battles, he could only take down the city.

If this thing called gunpowder is really that powerful, there would be no need for so much trouble. Just throw a piece of explosive to blow open the city gate and you can march straight in.

Now that the Central Plains is unified, there is no need to blow up the city gates anymore, but aren't there still the Huns?

When it comes to dealing with the Huns, Jiang Qi and Jiang Tuan have similar ideas. Even if the bomb doesn't kill many people, as long as the gunpowder has some power like lightning, it can scare the Huns half to death.

With this idea in mind, Jiang Qi couldn't wait any longer and immediately wanted to know how to make gunpowder.

Isn't Jiang Tuan just slow at writing? That doesn't matter, he asks someone to write and the other person just reads.

If one doesn't work, find two. If two don't work, find a group. You will definitely be able to get the method to make gunpowder as quickly as possible.

However, the matter was of great importance, so he did not let Jiang Tuan take the person away. Instead, he asked the other party to go directly to the back of the Wen Zheng Hall and leave when he finished writing.

Jiang Tuan never thought that he would one day become a ruthless reading machine, where others would write down what he said and sometimes even need to repeat themselves.

It would be fine if he had read less and could just read it like a normal conversation. The key was that there was a lot of stuff, and in order to speed up the progress he had to read non-stop. His lips became dry and his throat hoarse from reading, which was very painful.

The three eunuchs who were recording opposite him took turns several times, and it was already dark when he finally finished reading what was in his mind.

After reading it, he drank a large glass of honey water in one breath, and then he felt alive again. He felt that if there was nothing necessary, he would not want to speak for three days, and he had really said enough.

However, no matter how tired he was or how much he didn't want to talk, he had to explain the precautions to Jiang Qi.

Daxia itself is capable of smelting iron, so Jiang Tuan did not say much about this aspect. He mainly talked about some issues that need to be paid attention to in making gunpowder.

There were precautions in the gunpowder production method, but he felt he needed to emphasize them again.

After all, the people of Daxia have never experienced the power of gunpowder, and he is afraid that some people will be careless and cause irreversible consequences.

He thought that since Jiang Qi had seen the power of thunder and lightning, he should be able to imagine the power of gunpowder. If the number was small, it would be fine. Once the number increased, the destructive power would be beyond the other party's imagination.

The gunpowder production method provided by the system is an ancient one, which is definitely incomparable to the modern version, and it is definitely not capable of destroying a city.

But if the number is large enough, it will be no problem to destroy several palaces in the imperial palace, so you must always pay attention to safety when doing it.

Also, people who make gunpowder must be careful and it is best to have a certain understanding of this thing, otherwise accidents can easily happen if they are not vigilant enough.

When Jiang Tuan said this, Jiang Qi was in a dilemma.

He will definitely give the order to pay attention to safety, but the person who makes gunpowder needs to have a certain understanding of gunpowder, which is very difficult.

Before Jiang Tuan mentioned gunpowder, the whole of Daxia didn't even know what it was. How could anyone know about gunpowder? Could Jiang Tuan do it himself?

No, Jiang Tuan is too important, he won’t let him go even if he can’t do it.

Seeing that Jiang Qi was in a difficult situation, Jiang Tuan thought about it and gave his suggestion.

"Your Majesty, are those liars still here?"

"Liar? You mean those liars who pretend to be gods?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you won't kill them all, will you?"

It was impossible to kill them all. At most, some of those who committed serious crimes were killed, and the rest were punished to work.

Daxia has a lot of work to do and it is a time to hire people. Even prisoners cannot sit idle and have to work, or even do heavier work. It would be a waste to kill them.

"No, you want them to do it?"

“Your Majesty, of course not just any liar can do it, it’s best to find those liar who specialize in alchemy to do it.

Although it was impossible for those scammers to make a true elixir of life, their method of making the elixir was similar to that of making gunpowder.

They all need to accurately control the amount and timing of the good stuff, so it’s perfect for them to do this.”
