I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 158 Three Gunners

"It's a pity, this thing probably needs to be rebuilt."

Li Yu opened his mouth suddenly, as if a hammer had hit Chen Boyan's head.

As a result, Chen Boyan hadn't recovered from the amazing lethality of the firecracker, and his head was buzzing after being shocked by Li Yu's words, and his face was in a daze.

"What? Such an amazingly powerful weapon needs to be rebuilt?"

Li Yu smiled, but did not answer Chen Boyan's surprised words.

Feng Yansheng seemed to have thought of the problem, so he said, "It's really a pity."

……

Chen Boyan looked at the gun in his hand speechlessly, then looked at Li Yu and Li Yu with a frown, and then asked full of doubts: "It's a pity for the two adults, but why didn't I find anything wrong?"

"Master Chen really didn't realize that this firecracker has shortcomings?"

"shortcoming?"

"It's nothing more than a little bit of movement. I think it doesn't affect its killing."

Hearing what Chen Boyan said, Li Yu could only shake his head helplessly, and turned to leave.

Feng Yansheng also followed Li Yu's pace without saying a word, walking towards the front yard one after the other.

Seeing this, Chen Boyan's old face suddenly twisted into a ball, looking at the backs of Li Yu and the two of them, hesitant to speak.

"What's the problem?"

……

"Master Hou, isn't the firecracker just a bit ugly in shape, and it doesn't affect its normal use, why bother to remelt it..."

Seeing that Chen Boyan did not follow, Feng Yansheng looked at Li Yu with a strange face and smiled.

Li Yu shook his head here and said, "It's not because of its ugly shape, but what is the biggest shortcoming of this firecracker? Does Mr. Feng know?"

Feng Yansheng frowned and thought for a while, then said in a startled voice, "Water and fire are incompatible?"

"That's right, the core of this firecracker relies on gunpowder and fire wire. Once the two get wet, the entire function of the firecracker will fail."

After Li Yu said this, Feng Yansheng suddenly felt lost and said: "If this is the case, when there is a heavy rain, our Daqin army may use firecrackers as firesticks."

"So in the future, we will have to rely on the craftsmen of the Foundry Department to spend more time to see if we can improve the firecracker."

Thinking that there are still opportunities and room for improvement, Feng Yansheng immediately responded: "I will definitely live up to Lord Hou's expectations."

Seeing Feng Yansheng rekindled his fighting spirit, Li Yu couldn't help but nodded and said, "Let's come here today."

"Do you need to bring those three firecrackers back?" Feng Yansheng asked casually out of consideration of confidentiality.

Li Yu shook his head and said: "Since Mr. Chen loves it so much, I will leave the three firecrackers to Tingwei's Mansion."

"Your Majesty, are you serious?"

When the voice came, it was Uncle Chen who followed up while the two were talking, and happened to hear Li Yu saying that he would send three sharp weapons, firecrackers, to Tingwei's mansion.

Chen Boyan was afraid that Li Yu would repent, so he hurriedly asked.

Li Yu grinned and said, "Ben Hou speaks naturally."

Chen Boyan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and he cupped his hands and replied, "Thank you, Lord Junhou, for your generosity."

Li Yu waved his hands helplessly, signaling Chen Boyan not to be polite.

Chen Boyan knew that he had gained the advantage, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "I have bothered you for a long time today, and I have inherited the benefits of your lord. If you need it in the future, you only need to send someone to let you know."

Li Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then relieved: "If this Marquis wants something, he will definitely bother Mr. Chen. I hope Mr. Chen will not find it troublesome."

"No trouble, no trouble."

Seeing that when Chen Boyan said this, it was mostly out of love, so Li Yu couldn't say anything.

After all, Chinese civilization has always respected reciprocity, and even Daqin was no exception.

When Chen Boyan left with three firecrackers, Li Yu watched him leave the Hou Mansion, then he sighed and asked himself, "Will this be bad?"

Feng Yansheng was taken aback for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Master Hou?"

Before the words fell, Li Yu said: "This is the first time I have been appointed as a Taiwei. Today, four important officials from the court gathered at the residence of this Marquis."

Feng Yansheng immediately smiled, cupped his hands and said: "I feel that since His Majesty the First Emperor dared to give the position of Taiwei to Lord Hou, he would prepare for the worst. Even so, I don't think Lord Hou is an ambitious man." people."

Li Yu immediately smiled and laughed at himself: "Old Feng, do you think this Marquis has no ambitions?"

"I have been immersed in the officialdom for many years, and I have never encountered a situation where I don't know people clearly."

Seeing Feng Yansi said with a little arrogance, Li Yu no longer did that mediocre act.Then he waved his hand and said, "It's not too early."

Feng Yansheng clasped his hands knowingly and said: "Then I will go back to the workshop first."

……

There was nothing to say all night, and the sky was slightly bright.

The north gate of Xianyang City is already surrounded by many merchants Lujia who are about to leave the city.

As soon as the city gate is opened, the soldiers guarding the city will stand on both sides of the city gate. The merchant Lujia, the peasant tyrant and the country gentry will be able to enter and exit Xianyang City normally.

Among the crowd, three or five people looked a little flustered.

Only one of them who heard it pretended to be serious and said: "Why panic, calm me down."

A thin, short man tremblingly looked at the mighty guards at the gate of the city, and asked, "Boss, what you said about last night, could someone have already discovered it?"

While talking, I saw a group of policemen wearing Ting Wei's official uniforms galloping towards the north gate on horseback.

The burly man called the head frowned, and shouted angrily in a low voice: "You bastard, you really have a crow's mouth."

When the group was about to pass through the gate of the city, the strong man lowered his voice and said, "Don't panic, it's not an official from Gyeonggi Prefecture, maybe it's not for us."

When he said this, even the strong man himself felt a little guilty, but the matter has come to this point, he can only bite the bullet and pretend to be upright.

"Why?"

Seeing the flustered expressions of the people in front of him, the guards of the city asked.

"Mr. Jun, we are all villagers from the village outside the city. We were working at the official's mansion yesterday."

The city guard glanced at the man who was answering, then waved his hands and said, "Since you are returning home from work, why are you in such a panic?"

Speaking of this, the city guard couldn't help touching the long sword at his waist.

When the strong man saw this, his expression changed, and he hurriedly said: "Master Jun Mingjian, it's only because this boy's old mother is not in good health that we will go back early."

The city defenders thought about it, and it was not easy for these poor men, so they waved their hands and motioned for their companions to let them go.

Just at this time, before the three people in the costumes of Tingwei's Mansion arrived, their voices came first.

"The sergeant stopped them, they were murderers."

As soon as these words came out, the defenders of the city were shocked, and the long swords around their waists were unsheathed in response, but it was a little late.

The strong man took out a hatchet out of nowhere and shouted angrily, "Let's go!"

The short, skinny man wobbled his legs, and was driven by the other two towards the door.

But where is this?

Xianyang, the majestic imperial capital!
Even if they have eight legs, they might not be enough to run.

The strong man's expression changed drastically, and he had an idea in his heart. He grinned angrily and said, "Take the hostage."

At this moment, the three people from Tingwei's Mansion suddenly took out three fire stick-like objects from behind, and pointed at the strong men.

"boom!"

After a muffled sound, the three people in Tingwei's Mansion were still standing on the horse, while the murderers who were fleeing to take hostages fell down in response.
