After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1084 The Weapon is Complete
Upon hearing this, Liu Ge'er and the others inside the room tensed up... Magistrate Kang was supporting the Wei army in imprisoning them! Sure enough, civil officials are all treacherous and cunning; they only care about the credit, not the trivial matters, leaving everything to others!
Captain Zhong and Captain Ling said, "Don't worry, County Magistrate Kang, this is our responsibility."

County Magistrate Kang smiled, returned the greeting, and moved to another courtyard to continue describing in detail what had happened in the past few days.

County Magistrate Kang seemed to sense a conspiracy, but he was not stupid enough to ask. After all, dealing with Shannei was the Wei army's business. He just had to cooperate and there was no need to ask any more questions.

Anyway, the Wei army will inform him when they need him.

……

Grandpa Qin and his companions returned to Taifeng Town in the evening with the wolf corpse and three live wolves.

Grandpa Qin handed the wolf over to the people from the second gate of the government army, and then went to pay a visit to County Magistrate Kang. He recorded a confession about the events of the past few days, and received a New Year's gift from County Magistrate Kang before returning home.

"Grandpa is back, drink the ginger soup quickly. You've been running in the snow all day and have absorbed a lot of cold air. You need to drive away the cold!" Qin Xiaomi brought the ginger soup.

Grandpa Qin smiled, drank ginger soup, ate a bowl of easily digestible soup, changed into dry clothes, soaked his feet, and went to bed quickly.

The night of the fifth day was very quiet and nothing happened.

On the sixth day of the New Year, everyone got up after a good sleep.

County Magistrate Kang did not want to disturb the residents, so he left Taifeng Town and returned to the county town in the morning.

After he left, Qin Xiaomi went to the herbal medicine shop to work on making the secret weapon.

In the hospital that specializes in preparing poisonous medicinal materials, the saltpeter that was boiled years ago has condensed into crystal saltpeter after a few days.

But this is only six-level crystal saltpeter, and it needs to be refined three more times before it can become nine-level military saltpeter.

She started working on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Her diligence frightened her family. Her grandparents, uncles, and aunts took turns going to the hospital specializing in poisonous medicinal herbs to find out what she was doing.
Unfortunately, they were all stopped by Ye Xifen.

He had no choice but to wait until Qin Xiaomi came out of work and then catch her: "Xiaomi, what are you doing in there?"

Qin Xiaomi blurted out, "Developing new products can make a lot of money... Want a piece of the pie? Then invest your money, and I'll give you half a percent of the profits. Don't think it's too little. I'm only letting you invest because we're blood relatives. Even if a relative like Aunt Qin Liu tried to give me money, I wouldn't accept it."

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were relieved: "It's good that you are busy making new products. How much money do you need? Grandpa and grandma will go and get it for you right away. No need to give dividends. The money in the family is all earned by you. If you need it now, just take it."

Uncle Qin sighed, crossed his arms over his chest, and glanced at Qin Xiaomi: "Why do I feel like something is wrong?"

"There's something even more wrong with you." Qin Xiaomi sneered, then suddenly changed her expression and started to tease: "We haven't escaped the wilderness together, so even if he's your blood uncle, you still doubt me."

clap clap clap!
As expected, Uncle Qin was beaten by his grandparents again: "Second brother, you evil bastard, you only know how to bully the younger generation. Xiaomi has worked so hard to build this family business, and now you want to give us a discount, but you doubt her, your own niece, are you still human?"

"Mom and Dad, I just have a reasonable suspicion... Hey, stop hitting me, I was wrong... Mom and Dad, wife, I'm going to find Quanzi, and will be home for dinner later!" Uncle Qin couldn't stand it anymore and made an excuse to run away.

Qin Xiaomi was surrounded by her grandparents who were extremely distressed and got into the car, ready to go home.

Second Aunt Qin: “…” She felt sorry for Qin Zhuang. Even though he was resourceful, he was no match for his niece who was cunning and good at taking advantage of people’s nature.

"Aunt, get in the car. It's time to go home for dinner." Qin Xiaomi lifted the car curtain and called Aunt Qin with a sweet smile.

Aunt Qin really shuddered, and not daring to delay, she hurriedly got into the car.

That night, Qin Xiaomi received four investments, one from her grandparents, one from her second uncle and aunt, one from the Jiang family, and one from Xiao Gu Xiaomai.

Are you really going to give it to me?

But after a full performance, Qin Xiaomi accepted it and told the truth: "Don't worry, my dear ones, this money is not given in vain. You will have the opportunity to earn it in the future."

Jiang Xiaozhu was very supportive: "Sister Xiaomi's business is definitely profitable!"

Uncle Qin rolled his eyes at her, calling her a little flatterer.

"Hmm, smart." Qin Xiaomi patted Jiang Xiaozhu's head, thinking to herself, she's definitely going to make money, but she doesn't know if she'll live to enjoy it.

But never mind, let’s do it first.

Qin Xiaomi is increasingly involved in poisonous medicinal materials and making secret weapons.

Grandparents, uncles, aunts, and Aunt Qin were busy preparing for her coming-of-age ceremony, making her a coming-of-age dress out of flowing brocade. The brocade was blue, woven with silver threads to form a jade bamboo pattern, and paired with pearl earrings, making it very elegant and refined.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the coming-of-age dress was completed, and Qin Xiaomi was called to try on the dress as soon as she got off work.

After being dressed up by Grandma Qin and Aunt Qin, Grandma Qin exclaimed: "She looks beautiful. She is really a grown-up girl now."

"Tsk, she looks a bit too cold. How about we change the pearl earrings to red velvet ones?" Grandma Qin discussed with Aunt Qin.

Qin Xiaomi hurriedly said, "Grandma, no need to change, just this one, I like it."

Second Aunt Qin also said, "Mother-in-law, this is a perfect match, it complements my niece's temperament."

This pairing is all about pulling my niece towards gentleness.

My niece's temperament is like a weapon, cold, sharp, and murderous even when it is unsheathed.

So mother-in-law, please don't make trouble. If you annoy your niece, she might say to us: I will wear military uniform, carry a sword and a quiver to perform the coming-of-age ceremony.

That's a complete mess.

After hearing this, Grandma Qin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Alright, that's fine... It's very good, very good. Oh my, it's getting better and better the more I look at it. It's just a pity that Dalang isn't here. If he were..."

“Even if he were here, he wouldn’t see it. Male guests are not allowed at the coming-of-age ceremony.” Qin Xiaomi said, having already taken off her coming-of-age dress and put it aside: “Grandma, are you done trying it on? I’m leaving now.”

Grandma Qin was furious: "Your coming-of-age ceremony only comes once in a lifetime, why are you so careless?"

Qin Xiaomi smiled and said, "I prefer money to the coming-of-age ceremony."

Grandma Qin covered her chest and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "Hurry up and go, stop talking. If you keep talking, it will make me angry..."

I didn’t dare mention the word death because it was New Year’s Day and I was afraid of bad luck.

Qin Xiaomi chuckled and ran away.

After eating and drinking, washing up, go to bed immediately.

The next day, the 13th day of the first lunar month, she went to the medicine shop again to continue making weapons.

After much haste, they finally got nitre, sulfur and charcoal that could be used to make firearms.

The last thing is the ratio.

The best ratio is 80% saltpeter, 1% sulfur, and 1% charcoal.

Qin Xiaomi closed the door and, according to this ratio, personally prepared a firearm package weighing three taels, which was about the size of a fist.

Take this job for example. It is extremely dangerous. A single friction will send something flying into the sky.

Fortunately, she didn't let her family know, otherwise her grandparents would have threatened to commit suicide and not allowed her to prepare it.

But her grandparents knew this, so she let herself go and worked as hard as she could... Actually, she didn't dare to do too much. If she did too much, and it piled up, the herbal medicine shop would go bankrupt if something went wrong.

So she made ten packs and stopped, putting them in ten boxes.

Haven't tried frying it yet, though.

Wait until the Lantern Festival, when the town is bustling with people, and then try frying two more bags to see the effect.

"Xu Azheng, move here and live, and guard this yard day and night." Qin Xiaomi appointed Xu Azheng to do this job.

"Yes!" Xu Azheng accepted the task and moved into a hospital specializing in poisonous medicinal materials.

For safety reasons, Qin Xiaomi also lit a lamp with knockout drugs near the yard, and only gave the antidote to Xu Azheng, Shen Lu Niang, Zhu Yiqing and others.

But Ye Xifen didn't give it.
