Datang: Eight-year-old general

Chapter 196 Turkic Envoy
Li Yi said goodbye to Osmanthus osmanthus, but did not return to the inner courtyard.

Instead, he came to the west courtyard.

This is where the Qi Pavilion is located.

When the osmanthus still came to the old farm, Li Bai sent someone to escort the person who made the medicine and fire, and arrived at the old farm first.

At this time, the west courtyard was already full of people.

Several alchemists gathered together to discuss how to ensure the stability of the powder.

Because of the ratio of gunpowder given by Li Yi, they saved the need to study the ratio of gunpowder, so they focused on using it.

So it saves a lot of time.

Outside, Li Yi took out the white mask, covered his face, stepped into the west courtyard, and walked towards the alchemists.

"Meet the lord."

When the white-robed army saw Li Yi coming here, he quickly bowed and saluted.

This also caused several alchemists to look back. Seeing Li Yi's figure, they all shouted, "I've seen the owner of the villa."

"Ah."

Li Yi nodded, and said, "I heard from you just now that the fire mine developed seems to be unstable. Can you tell me where the problem is?"

One person walked out, bowed and said, "To the owner, we put the gunpowder into the iron pellets, but found that we couldn't let it explode as we wished."

"And the power is not too great, the gunpowder in the iron pill was wasted."

"So that's the problem."

Li Yi was stunned.

Then he smiled, "This problem is easy to solve, as long as you put sulfur, small iron beads, and flint in it, it will be fine."

"As long as the iron pellets are thrown out and hit the ground, the flint and sulfur inside will change, causing the gunpowder inside to burn and burst instantly."

"The iron flakes and small iron beads that are shot out can not only hurt the enemy, but after using them well, they are a good life-saving thing."

"I see."

Several alchemists frowned slightly when they heard the words, and then reacted, looking at Li Yi happily, "Thank you, the owner, for clarifying the confusion. Within two days, we will be able to refine the perfect fire thunder."

"Don't be too happy."

Li Yi said coldly, "What I want is not a fire thunder, but a more powerful fire thunder, which can kill the enemy on the battlefield."

"Also, I gave you the art of refining iron and steel. You must refine the steel as soon as possible. I want to see the Shenwu Cannon on the blueprint in front of me within half a year."

"Of course, during this, you can bring whatever you need, and I will ask someone to help you do it one by one."

"And your current identities are no longer alchemists, but the alchemists of my old farm, or scientists."

"Whoever performs the best, the owner of the villa will personally award you the honorary title of gold medal, and reward you with gold ten thousand taels, and the monthly money will be tripled."

After some words fell.

The refining masters of these Artifact Pavilions were already flushed with excitement.

Although they were alchemists in the past, they did so poorly, and they didn't have much money, and they were just for the illusory longevity.

A few of them were the ones who, after helping the master's family refine the elixir, ended up eating the master's superstitious belief in longevity to death. The stele government regarded them as liars and imprisoned them in Dali Temple, preparing to be executed in autumn.

It was Li Bai who used Li Yi's general token to meet Li Longji once, and forced them to come over, saying that it was too wasteful to kill them like this, and they would be sent to the front to kill the enemy.

This saved their lives.

As a result, these craftsmen were very grateful to Li Bai, but they didn't know why they and others came to the old farm.

But at this moment, the rich money has left them no time to take care of so much, and they just want to refine the Shenwu Cannon that Li Yi wants as soon as possible.

I took the money, so chic.

Immediately, Qi Qi promised, "Don't worry, owner, the villains will definitely fulfill the orders of the owner."

"I'm waiting for your good news."

Li Yi smiled, these people are not worthy of his training, he still has to find a loyal and suitable person to be in charge of Qi Pavilion.

Of course, now he has no one to use, he can only use them.

After guiding them in their thinking, Li Yi didn't stay any longer and left here.

In this way, half a month passed.

In the past half month, Li Yi either went to the North Courtyard or the West Courtyard to have a look.

The bamboo tubes used in the distiller have also been replaced with clay-fired porcelain tubes, which improves the speed of distilling spirits.

And made three kinds of good wine.

One is drunken fragrance, the other is bamboo green, and the third is iron blood.

Two mild tastes, one kind of strong wine with a mouthful of fire.

It is also on sale at Osmanthus tavern.

In an instant, it caused a sensation.

And the prices of the three kinds of wine also surged to one hundred taels a jar.

High-ranking officials and nobles are all fond of her.

Seeing this, with the help of Li Yi, Osmanthus osmanthus began to expand the tavern, preparing to build a pavilion on Zhuque Street.

Open a restaurant.

And Qi Pavilion completely made fire and thunder.

The power is even more astonishing. After the explosion, the iron pieces and small iron beads can easily penetrate the bodies of soldiers wearing battle armor.

Severe injuries can range from serious injuries to death.

Large-scale refining has already started, and it is stored in the remaining warehouse.

this day.

In the ceremony hall of the inner courtyard, Li Yi wore a mask and sat on the upper seat, listening to the latest news reported by Xu Zhu and Dian Wei.

Xu Zhudao, "I would like to report to the owner of the village that An Lushan had a secret meeting with the Turkic envoy yesterday. I'm afraid he can't do it anymore. What should we do?"

"Do you know what they talked about?"

Li Yi asked with a frown.

Three days ago, the envoys sent by the Turkic Khan came to Chang'an, had an audience with Li Longji, and made a request for marriage.

Li Longji did not veto it at the court meeting.

Instead, he said, this matter will be discussed again.

Unexpectedly, the envoy went to meet An Lushan in secret, which is a bit of an inside taste.

"do not know."

Xu Zhu shook his head and said, "The spies we sneaked in are too low-ranked to get close to An Lushan and the Turkic envoys."

"If that's the case, let the ghost army keep an eye on An Lushan and his generals, as well as the Turkic envoys."

"Once there is a change, come and report it immediately."

Li Yi made a decision immediately.

If it wasn't for Chang'an and the Turkic envoys were not moving, he would have let Yanyun eighteen ride to capture the Turkic envoys back alive.

Thinking of this, Li Yi added, "By the way, Xu Zhu, you also send someone to bribe the people around the Turkic envoy to see if you can get some useful news."

"Subordinates obey."

Xu Zhu nodded, and said, "Master, there is one more thing, that is, our spies have discovered another force that is also monitoring Anlu Mountain."

"As for the origin, I can't find out even if I put spies on it. They are very vigilant."

"Another force?"

Li Yi was puzzled.

What Xu Zhuzhi said was not referring to the spies of Yang Guozhong and others, but the spies of a new, strange force.

But Li Yi thought and thought, and really couldn't think of anyone else who would monitor An Lushan.

He could only say, "Let the spies pay more attention. Don't startle the snake. Since this force is also monitoring Anlu Mountain, it is probably a friend rather than an enemy."
