Chapter 469 Milk Tea
Sima Fang pointed back, "How could Caishi make such a big noise?"

This is not something that can't be said, the soldier thought about it, and felt that it could let people outside see how powerful our Xu family army is.

Explained: "When the mountain is exploded, the movement will naturally be louder."

"Explosion?" Sima Fang was a little hard to understand the word, "How can a mountain be so big?"

Sima Fang knew a little bit about digging stone mines, "Do you burn it with fire first, then water it, so as to make the whole mountain of rocks brittle before knocking them down?"

"It's not right, how much firewood will be wasted if such a big mountain is completely burned?" Sima Fang denied it to himself first.

The soldier waved his hand, "That's not the case. We didn't use this simple method a few years ago."

"Now it's the quarry technicians who set up explosives at fixed points and use explosives to blow them up."

"Dynamite?" Sima Fang felt that he had discovered the point, "What kind of medicine is this? How did it blow up the mountain?"

How to blow up the mountain?This can be difficult for soldiers.

How was he supposed to explain it to someone who had never seen an explosion?
The soldier thought about it, and thought of bamboo, "Have you ever seen firecrackers, they are just like firecrackers."

Sima Fang couldn't imagine it, but when he thought of the earth-shattering noise just now, his heart beat two beats faster.

If it is used on the battlefield, the movement alone can scare the enemy back.

"Is this also the magical medicine that your leader and the gods asked for?" Sima Fang saw that the soldier was not hiding anything, so he asked boldly.

Because he discovered that these Xu family troops did not shy away from talking about the various miraculous abilities of the leader's family.

Sure enough, the soldier nodded first, then shook his head, "The leader probably brought it, but the people who made this thing are some students from Xujiazhuang."

"The movement we heard later is also the machine they built. Now only Yuyang and Zhuojun have it. That big guy is covered in iron. It sounds scary." The soldier said excitedly, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

Sima Fang asked him: "So powerful? Have you seen it?"

The soldier smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, "No, actually I heard what the captain said, and the captain has seen it."

That little boy?
Not long after Sima Fang suppressed Wang Jian's doubts, he was suspended again by the soldiers' words.

"You little captain, you are young and have a temper." Sima Fang tentatively asked.

But the soldiers immediately heard his intention to inquire. This is different from inquiring about gunpowder and steam engines. This cannot be said, it is military discipline!

The soldier's face darkened immediately, and he looked at Sima Fang speechlessly, hoping that he would be more sensible and stop making such troubles for himself.

Sima Fang was deeply depressed after trying three times in a row and ended in failure each time.

He could tell that the leader of the Xu family sent these four people over to pick him up, not because he was negligent, but because he attached great importance to it!

All of them seem to be honest and honest, but I didn't expect that there are [-] of them!
It can be seen that it must be the elite of the Xu family army.

As long as he asked about anything that he could know, these people would finish talking by themselves, just in case there was something he couldn't understand.

If you don't let him know anything, as long as you ask, your face will immediately sink.

This kind of response cannot be achieved without special training.

The cold wind blew on the shaft for a while, and found out that it would take four or five days to get to Zhuo County from here, so Sima Fang rubbed his old face which had been blown cold, retreated into the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated.

He had only been in Yuyang for half a day, and he had already seen a lot of new things.

The roads here are neat and flat, and they are not afraid of wind and rain. Almost all major arterial roads are paved with such cement.

The people here are also different, as the spies said in the secret letter, there are no noble families here, and there are no slave tenants.

Pedestrians on the road, whether they are officials, civilians or merchants, are all equal and belong to the Xu family.

Not only that, the women here can go out of the house and be officials or businessmen.

No matter men, women, old or young, they can read and speak Mandarin with the same pronunciation. Villagers from different regions no longer have conflicts because of language barriers.

Here, the former lowest-level slave tenants could have clothes and rice to eat.

For example, in the wealthy villages near Yuyang County, the villagers don't even have patches on their clothes, and some of them can even wear the most expensive cotton clothes in Xu's army.

Those engaged in industry and business are especially popular, and their status is very different from before.

Most of the farmers here can write and count. There are even students from the Xujiajun Agricultural College who personally go to the fields to teach the farmers how to plant and how to increase production.

These minutiae people and things are slowly connected together to form a new world ruled by a brand new political system.

Although Sima Fang didn't have a big expression on his face, he had already recorded all these people and things in his heart.

The emotion in my heart can no longer be expressed in words.

Thinking of the source of the two loud noises that he hadn't had time to see, but which had penetrated into people's hearts, Sima Fang's heart was lifted up, and he couldn't fall down again.

Now he is eager to meet the five members of the Xu family who created all these incredible things. He wants to know how they came up with these things!

As the group traveled farther and farther away from Yuyang, and closer to Zhuo County, Sima Fang was so excited that it was almost difficult to fall asleep, and he suffered from insomnia every night.

He felt this way only when he was young, when he left home alone and went to Runan to look for a great Confucian to study.

It's a pity that the curator of the Xujiajun Posthouse prepared a warm kang bed for him.

The kang bed is warm and spacious, the quilts are clean and tidy, and there is a scent of saponin, but the owner of the kang can't enjoy it properly after tossing and turning.

Seriously, this traveling condition is the most satisfying experience in Sima Fang's life.

This trip to Youzhou is over, and after enjoying so many conveniences, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to adapt to the previous living conditions.

But the more satisfied you are, the more you must always be alert to yourself!
But when Sima Fang looked back, the cronies who came with him were happily packing their clothes and preparing to take a hot bath in the bathhouse of the station.

The two attendants squatted in front of the burning charcoal basin, boiling water and making tea, looking forward to it.

It was the milk tea sent by the owner of the post house. It was thought up by the leader of the Xu family army. It was prepared by Zhao Bei himself, and finally it was written as a recipe and spread to all the post houses in Youzhou.

This is a ration for the officials and soldiers of the Xu family army, and ordinary merchants can't buy it, so they go up to make friends with the officials and soldiers, and have such a bite.

If it weren't for Wang Jian, they wouldn't be able to share this milk tea.

Sima Fang held his own identity and didn't want to use such a "cottage version of soup and tea", so he gave it to the servants.

No, these followers are addicted to drinking.

A scent wafted out from the teapot, with the spicy aroma of tea powder and the rich aroma of milk. The combination of the two aromas made the followers salivate.

Sima Fang sat cross-legged on the kang bed, endured and endured, but still couldn't help asking:
"Is this good to drink?"
