I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 218 Fireworks meet "cold"

"As the initiator of this project, of course the Taiwei is the most suitable."

It's not that Meng Yi doesn't want to choose himself or his brother Meng Tian, ​​so that it will be convenient for the two brothers to reunite in Xianyang in the future.

But now Taiwei Li Yu's name is still above the Meng family, and there are even soldiers in the army who are proud of the words "Taiwei's soldiers fight on the battlefield, and some families still lead the coquettish", which shows Li Yu's prestige in the army No one can match it.

Of course, since Li Yu put forward the slogan "to get rich, build roads first", and proposed that Shi Huang should vigorously promote the construction of Qin Zhidao, he presumably had a well-thought-out idea, and he already had a general idea and follow-up measures.

Unless Meng Yi's heart was covered with lard and his brain was burnt, he would say at this moment: "Your Majesty, I think I can do this..."

And the most important point is the marriage between Li Yu and Princess Yangzi, the daughter of the first emperor, seven days later.

After all, Li Yu's position has become Meng Tian's immediate boss, and the fact that Li Yu is about to become the first emperor's in-law is enough to dissuade everyone.

What's more, he, Meng Yi, highly admires Li Yu's ability, character, etc., and even admires him a little.

Ying Zheng asked this question at this moment, but he just didn't want to end up with the pretext of being "partial" by others.

In fact, in his heart, he had already decided that the commander-in-chief of the "Construction Corps" must be Li Yu's idea.

……

The predecessor of the Lishan Army was criminals from all over the country, and even the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. They had made great achievements in suppressing the rebellion before, and they were cleared of their charges and returned to their roots.

Needless to say, everyone knows what the Lishan Army did before.

Li Yu just took advantage of the trend and pulled the prisoners who built the imperial mausoleum for the First Emperor Yingzheng out of their predicament.

But today's Great Qin naturally needs craftsmen as alchemy stones to improve the national livelihood of the Great Qin.

For this reason, it was not on a whim that Li Yu once again proposed that Yingzheng transform the Lishan Army into a constructive force.

Knowing that Yingzheng didn't even convene a court meeting, so Meng Yi came here with an edict, Li Yu was still somewhat surprised.

Seeing Li Yu's face glowing red under the setting sun.Meng Yi and Feng Yansheng glanced at each other, then they clasped their hands together and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I wish Master Taiwei good luck in advance."

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Why do you two adults see each other, it's better to save the congratulations for that day."

During the speech, Li Yu's imperceptible expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, then he patted his forehead and said: "Look, I just found Mr. Feng's foundry department on my front foot, and you, Mr. Meng, followed me , I almost forgot the business!"

Meng Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, but Feng Yansheng reacted in an instant, and then showed a look of surprise, and quickly winked at the officer beside him, then turned his head and said: "It's time, it's time, Lord Hou, please let me go!" The officials sent people to start with black gunpowder, looking for fireworks that are less powerful but can emit colors. These days, the officials have found out a little bit, and today they are going to demonstrate it to Lord Hou. You are too late, Mr. Meng. skillful."

Black powder?
Small power?
fireworks?

Meng Yi was at a loss when he heard it, but what was going on, he could also hear some truths from Feng Yansheng's short words.

Could it be...

What amazing weapon did Master Taiwei ask Feng Yansheng to develop?

Thinking of this, Meng Yi felt a little curious, and then asked with a half-knowledge: "Fireworks? Didn't Master Taiwei develop some kind of weapon?"

Seeing this, Li Yu and Feng Yansheng looked at each other and smiled, Li Yu immediately said with a smile: "Master Meng may have misunderstood. Spectacular objects that enhance the atmosphere.”

Hearing Li Yu's explanation, the three-point curiosity in Meng Yi's heart subsided in an instant.

After all, compared with novelty gadgets, Meng Yi actually cares more about military items that can improve military strength, such as saddles, gunpowder, and firecrackers.

Seeing some disappointment on Meng Yi's face, Li Yu just shook his head slightly, because he knew that a general like Meng Yi focused more on the army than something that sounded useless.

The officials of the foundry department simply set up the fireworks venue. Feng Yansheng smiled when he saw this, and then raised his hand and said, "My lords, please, the fireworks need an open space to be lit and displayed."

Hearing this, Li Yu glanced sideways at Meng Yi, and then said: "Master Zhimeng is busy with business, but these fireworks are very ornamental, and they are displayed for the first time..."

Before Li Yu finished speaking, Meng Yi said with a smile: "Master Taiwei, please first, and Meng Yi will be by your side to feast your eyes on."

After all, the few people have already left the hot and harsh places like the foundry department, and came to the vast field outside the department.

Under Feng Yansheng's arrangement, several craftsmen carried incense and lit the things called "fireworks" that were tied together in bamboo tubes and stood on the field.

As the lead wire burned out, Li Yu's face became more expectant, and then he heard the violent chemical reaction in the bamboo tube, erupting a series of gold and silver sparks.

In just a few seconds, the "fireworks" burned out, leaving piles of natural fires on the field due to overheating...

This is considered a success... right...

Compared with the fireworks feast that I have seen in Kyoto, this is a shabby flash in the pan at this time, which is somewhat different from Li Yu's expectations.

But in the end, it was a successful first step, allowing fireworks to advance from the Tang Dynasty to the Great Qin Dynasty. The gap of hundreds of years, in a sense, is definitely quite a success.

But if you want to move such a thing to your own wedding scene to set off, to be honest, it's a bit overwhelming.

But Li Yu's thoughts and senses belonged to the traveler, which was naturally different from the aborigines like Feng Yansheng and Meng Yi.

So Feng Yansheng and Meng Yi watched this kind of thing for the first time, and the expressions on their faces were completely different from Li Yu's.

I saw Feng Yansheng's old face shaking wildly with excitement, clapping his hands vigorously.And Meng Yi originally just wanted to join in the fun just because Li Yu was present, so he didn't want to leave by himself, but he didn't expect to see such a rare thing, and he was amazed and shocked for a while.

Li Yu didn't expect that the fireworks, which took only a few seconds before and after, would capture the hearts of the two important ministers of the Qin Dynasty in an instant, and looked at them speechlessly for a while.

After a while, the bamboo tube used to hold the fuel for the fireworks was burnt to charcoal ashes, and Feng Yansheng jumped out of his own world.

Then he glanced at Li Yu with an apologetic expression on his face. When he saw that Li Yu was in general interest and didn't have much expression on his face, Feng Yansheng's old face changed instantly, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Then he cupped his hands and said carefully: "Forgive me, Lord Hou, let me hurry up and improve..."

Hearing this, Meng Yi was shocked immediately, and he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

One must know that Feng Yansheng has always been serious and earnest when dealing with the affairs of the foundry department, and even has a bit of an over-the-top eye.

If Feng Yansheng heard a word of confession, it would be a rare thing to find even with the lights on.

Just when Meng Yi pricked up his ears to hear the ins and outs of the "fireworks", he saw that Li Yu didn't have the slightest intention of blaming him. Instead, he patted Feng Yansheng on the shoulder with a smile and said, "The fireworks are well done. Master Feng doesn't need to Don't worry too much. Just perfect the fireworks technique in the past few days, this Marquis can trust Mr. Feng."

After all, without waiting for Meng Yi, the melons, and Feng Yansheng to react, Li Yu went out of the foundry department.

　In fact, there are many things I want to say, but...life is not easy, I can only say one thing, those who are still waiting for the update, thank you for waiting.
