Li An’s sudden staggering was deliberately pretended, but he didn’t at all any evil intentions, just thought that Cao’er was pretty cute and teased little girl, it was a very happy thing.

However, Cao’er Young Lady was terrified, Li An’s mouth was attached to his right temple, and half of her body was pressed against her. The eyes are tightly closed.

“Cao’er, how can you lead the way with your eyes closed?”

“Oh.”

Cao’er’s eyes opened slightly, and Li An struggled to walk towards the backyard.

“Cao’er, you are Ruyu’s dowry and you are my own, you can understand.”

Li An with a touch of drunkenness, looks naughty towards Cao’er.

“Master, Cao’er is young, can’t …”

Cao’er was nervous like a frightened deer, his eyes lifted up, and he glanced at Li An anxiously.

“You Young Lady, Master tease you? Hahahaha!”

Li An laughed a few times, let go of Cao’er, and strode toward the bedroom. Yan Ruyu was waiting for him?

Cao’er stood staring at the spot, and after a long time, he felt relieved, and at the same time, there was a touch of sweetness and longing. After all, as a woman, she can marry someone she likes. , Is the greatest blessing in a lifetime, and Li An is so handsome and high status, how can Cao’er not like it.

Of course, Cao’er is too young, and will have to raise a few more years to bear Li An’s favor.

Black gunpowder is the most important material of the Great Tang empire, and it has received the unanimous attention of Li Longji and all his subjects. In order to build a workshop for configuring black gunpowder, the Great Tang Imperial Court mobilized a lot of manpower and material resources. Even the Daming Palace All the projects have stopped.

Li An, as a member of the Great Tang Imperial Court, is the only candidate for black gunpowder. Of course, it is also necessary to make an all-out effort. He got up early in the morning, and after a little preparation, he waited for Duan Xiushi. Under the guard of the Yulin Army, Zema ran to the black powder workshop at 10 li south of the city.

At this moment, the Black Powder Workshop is guarded by 600 Dragon Martial Army, 4 people each in the city wall and city gate in 100 directions, and there are also 200 people in the interior. Don’t even think about mixing in.

Duan Xiushi and the others are only responsible for escorting Li An to the Black Powder Workshop. As for the inside, he has no right to enter and can only stay outside the gate of the workshop and wait for Li An to come out.

“Minister Li, you are finally here.”

Long Wu Great General Chen Xuanli, standing inside the Black Powder Workshop, saw Li An enter, quickly greeted, and I saw that Chen Xuanli had a good look and was in a good mood.

“Great General, how are you here, Your Majesty let you personally guard the black powder workshop.”

Li An felt that Chen Xuanli was complaining that he was late. However, Chen Xuanli personally guarded here, but Li An was quite surprised.

“Well, Your Majesty is worried about the ordinary soldiers being unable to subdue here, so let this Old Man come over. If you need anything from Minister Li, please feel free to tell me, my task is to assist Minister Li.

Chen Xuanli made it clear that this little workshop really made him come to sit in town personally, especially that Li Longji really attached great importance to the black powder workshop.

“As long as the raw materials and labor are sufficient, there is also a guarding of the workshop, so that no outsiders can enter, and the rest seems to be nothing.”

Li An feels that Chen Xuanli is coming, as long as he is optimistic about the door and he can be an excellent watchdog. For other things, he really can’t help.

However, Chen Xuanli did not feel that it was Qu Cai who personally guarded the Black Powder Workshop, but instead had a sense of honor, because this is not an ordinary workshop, but an important workshop related to the rise and fall of Great Tang, which can be sent here by Emperor to see The gate, which is also a great honor, cannot be obtained by ordinary people.

“Minister Li, these 600 people are hand-picked by Your Majesty for you. What you need to do is just ask them directly.”

Chen Xuanli and Li An walked into the largest workshop together, pointing to 600 people neatly organized and introduced.

Li An was shocked to see these neatly arranged laborers, where was the dumb worker he wanted, the division was an army, and it was a well-trained army, but he didn’t wear military uniforms.

“These all are dumb? How does it look like an army?”

Li An spoke out his doubts.

Chen Xuanli lightly saying: “They were originally soldiers, but now they are dumb. They will only obey the orders of Minister Li and will not reveal any secrets.”

“What, you actually made the soldiers dumb, is this too cruel.”

Li An was very angry. He was originally worried that he could not find a sufficient number of dumb workers in Beijing, but he didn’t expect that Great Tang Imperial Court simply didn’t go looking for it, but directly made the soldiers dumb.

“Minister Li, being a major event is arbitrary, and now, black gunpowder is extremely important to my Great Tang. For the rise and fall of the Great Tang, let the 600 soldiers sacrifice themselves, what is wrong?”

Chen Xuanli disagreed and felt that this was a very necessary thing. After all, black gunpowder was too important. It had to have enough manpower to do the work, and at the same time, they could not let them leak the secret. The best way was the same.

“Anytimes, are they willing?”

Li An was very shocked and felt that Imperial Court was cruelly killing the soldiers.

Chen Xuanli exhaled, indifferently said: “Minister Li can ask for themselves and ask if they are willing.”

Li An walked up to him and asked, “Are you willing to be dumb?”

“Yep.”

This person immediately nodded to Li An saluted, his eyes were full of perseverance, and he was not forced at all.

“You are also voluntary?”

“Yep.”

“How about you? You came here voluntarily.”

“Yep.”

Li An asked more than a dozen people in a row, and all responded with a straight face, indicating that he was not forced, but willing to come to the black powder workshop.

‘Enlightenment! This is called enlightenment. For the benefit of the Great Tang Empire, he is willing to sacrifice his own body, preferring to be a disabled person, and loyal to the Great Tang Imperial Court. This noble quality spirit, Li An feels familiar, this is not patriotism Feelings? ‘

“Great General, these soldiers are willing to stay here all their lives, what about their families? Imperial Court must not treat their families!”

Li An thinks that heroes are very valuable, but the heroes’ families are even more valuable. They cultivated heroes, so they must be respected.

“For this matter, Minister Li is relieved that all the family members of these soldiers will receive preferential treatment from Imperial Court. Not only do they not have to pay any taxes, but Imperial Court also rewards them with enough land to make them worry-free for life.”

Chen Xuanli said righteously.

“Okay! Since this is the only way, I will make enough black gunpowder in the shortest time to live up to Your Majesty’s high expectations.”

Li An had no other choice but to admit this reality, and immediately divided the 600 horses into 6 groups and let them engage in different jobs. Among them, 100 people were responsible for grinding sulfur and grinding sulfur into a very small powder.

There are also 100 people responsible for making charcoal powder, grinding charcoal into charcoal powder, the demand for saltpeter is relatively large, Li An has 300 people responsible for grinding saltpeter, and the last 100 people are split by Li An to do In order to save their physical strength, Li An also let 30 people stay outside the configuration workshop and listen to their orders at any time.

Because the powder particles are very small, they must be stored in a suitable container. For this reason, a large number of clay pots are prepared in the workshop. These ground powders will be placed in these pots for easy storage and Handling.

Because the family has been taken care of by the Imperial Court, these laborers have not put much burden on their hearts, and they all work very hard. The three major workshops are all hard-working scenes.

Li An doesn’t need to do it by himself. He moved a chair and sat in the workshop to rest. From time to time eyes opened, looked towards the working man, inspect the progress to determine when to start the configuration.

At noon, all the manual workers go to eat in batches to ensure uninterrupted grinding in the workshop. At the same time, the eating area is too small. Too many people at a time does not need to be batched. The soldiers in charge of the Longwu army stationed also took part in a batch of meals to ensure the absolute safety of the black powder workshop.

After eating, people are prone to sleepiness, especially in winter. Li An moved to a chair after lunch and sat under the sun to take a nap. The warm sunlight shone on him. How comfortable it is.

In the whole black powder workshop, only you will be so comfortable. The rest of you are busy and on duty. This makes Li An lament the difference in fate. You can lie down in the sun comfortably while others can only work hard Work and duty.

Many people means great power. In the afternoon, the three raw materials of black gunpowder are all grinded in sufficient quantity, and a large number of clay pots are piled in the workshop, which looks quite spectacular.

Li An felt that it was time to configure, so he went to the sulfur grinding workshop first, and let the working people move the ground sulfur powder to the configuration workshop.

After entering the configuration workshop, Li An asked these people to pour the sulfur powder into ten mixing rollers, each of which was filled with the same powder, that is, the same number of pots. After they were finished, they were left empty. The clay pot returns to the grinding workshop and continues to grind the sulfur powder, waiting for the next configuration.

Then Li An went to the charcoal powder workshop and the saltpeter powder workshop one after another. In the same way, let them pour the ground powder into the stirring drum. Of course, the amount of pour is calculated in advance, according to the configuration of black powder Proportionally.

Of course, Li An definitely brings more than 3 waves of people. Between these 3 groups of people, there are also several groups of people. They bring in items such as croton powder, herbs, etc. that have no effect. Of course, these things do not all Pour into the mixing barrel, put it aside, and then hide it in the cabinet by Li An. Only sulfur powder, charcoal powder and nitrite powder are poured into the mixing drum, and it is poured according to the proportion of the black powder .

Stirring the drum is a very hard job. Of course, Li An will not do it all by himself. So, let the 30 people on standby enter the configuration workshop and turn the stirring drum in turn until they say they can.

“Okay, the mixing is almost done, you work hard, lift the roller down, open the lid, pour the powder inside into the pot. Be careful, don’t break any items.”

Li An issued an order to harvest the finished product.

30 people cooperate with each other, cautiously hold the roller down, lift the lid, and pour the powder inside into the large pottery jar.

Li An counted a total of 30 large cans, each of which was very large and piled up close to the mouth of the can. Such a can of black gunpowder, if packed into a gunpowder package for explosive ore, was enough for a few hundred Too.

“Seal everything and put it in an underground warehouse.”

This is the first batch of finished black gunpowder, Li An decided to seal it first as the most basic reserve.

After all the 30 large canisters of black gunpowder were stored in the underground warehouse, Li An was again equipped with 30 large canisters. However, at this time, Li An not at all sealed these black gunpowders, but instead, moved all of them into a safe workshop, and Among the labor responsible for misleading, 30 people were assigned to be responsible for packaging black powder that can be used directly.

The practical production of black gunpowder is actually very simple. It is to pour out a small part of the black gunpowder in a large pottery jar, wrap it in a piece of sackcloth, and insert a hemp rope soaked in oil in it That’s it.

These 30 people have to produce every day, and the 30 people who are responsible for mixing also come to help when there is nothing to do to increase the production of practical gunpowder packages.

When the sun was sinking, hundreds of black gunpowder packages that could be used directly were already prepared and stored in large pottery jars in underground warehouses. Of course, the above should be sealed to prevent these hard work. Black powder is damp.

All the labor is still working hard, but Li An is no longer needed. He has been busy working for a long time this day, which definitely exceeds the 4 hours requested by Li Longji. However, Li An ’s busy work is busy but not tired. All the specific work is done by others, he is only responsible for the command, and even his hands are clean.

Moreover, as these people become familiar with their work, they will be more comfortable in conducting and will be more relaxed in the future.

“Minister Li is going back to the city?”

Li An walked out of the safety workshop and just stretched out, Chen Xuanli came over and greeted Li An.

Chen Xuanli’s attitude is very good, the whole person looks kind, a proud of one’s success expression, maybe, in his opinion, to be a watchdog in the black gunpowder workshop is a Supreme glorious thing.

“The Great General is over 100 years old and the spirit is still so good. This Lowly Official really admires it.”

Li An shook his spirits and laughed.

“Hmph, what’s wrong with 100 in the middle of the year? This Old Man doesn’t climb the tower as usual, nor does it lose to you later generations.”

Chen Xuanli’s disdainful appearance made Li An look straight and wanted to laugh, but had to endure it.
