Chapter 471 Gunpowder 1
On a hidden hilltop on the outskirts of the capital, there was only a "bang", a cloud of black smoke came in, followed by a burst of coughing.

"My lord, my lord, the gunpowder... the gunpowder has succeeded!" A young soldier ran down the mountainside excitedly, and said excitedly to a very young official, "The subordinates have caught a few sheep according to your lord's order. , this time, they were killed at the same time!"

Fang Ningrui, that is, the young official, is now named by Ji Xuanyao as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and is responsible for making gunpowder. He forgot that he was still eating lunch in excitement, and hurried up the mountain when he saw the black ball And a few sheep that died very heroically.

"My lord, be careful, there might be some leftover gunpowder!" The soldier nervously pulled Fang Ningrui, and ran in cautiously.

"Let go, don't I know?" Fang Ningrui shook off his hand, turned around and looked at it carefully, with a smile on his face, and said happily, "Okay, that's great, hurry up, prepare it for me." A horse, I have to go back to Beijing to report!"

"Yes!" The little soldier cupped his hands, turned around and prepared a horse for Fang Ningrui, and Fang Ningrui rushed back before he had time to wash up.

Ji Xuanyao was dealing with political affairs in the palace. When he heard Fang Ningrui's report, he suddenly stood up from his chair and said excitedly, "Then what are you waiting for? Come on, let him in!"

"Your Majesty, the subject has already come in!" Fang Ningrui ran in excitedly, his body was dirty, and the corners of Cai Quan and Li Anli's mouths twitched as they watched.

"I see the emperor, long live the emperor!" Fang Ningrui walked up to Ji Xuanyao and knelt down hard towards him.

"Aiqing, please get up!" Ji Xuanyao excitedly helped Fang Ningrui up, because with the memory of his previous life, Ji Xuanyao knew how important gunpowder was to this era of cold weapons, but he had never learned how to make gunpowder in his previous life. Not to mention the ratio of gunpowder and so on, so people like Fang Ningrui are very rare.

Fang Ningrui was out of breath from exhaustion, but as if he didn't feel any sadness, he took out the formula he had recorded, and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, the formula of gunpowder is all right. I have studied it carefully for a long time, and finally succeeded today." That’s right, those gunpowder actually killed a dozen or so sheep in one go, which shows how powerful it is. If this thing is used in war, it will definitely be a great weapon, and it should not be underestimated!”

Ji Xuanyao patted Fang Ningrui's shoulder lightly, and smiled happily, "You are right, this is a good thing, do you have the recipe?"

"I've brought them all!" Fang Ningrui handed the formula to Ji Xuanyao, "It's very detailed, Your Majesty, I think gunpowder should be mass-produced!"

Ji Xuanyao looked down at these gunpowder formulas, and the more he looked at them, the more excited he became. In this era, whoever owns advanced weapons is equivalent to occupying the first opportunity.

Ji Xuanyao didn't want to be a very powerful emperor, nor did he want to be a figure like Genghis Khan or Kublai Khan. He just wanted to protect this country and let the people in this country live a good life.

However, Ji Xuanyao has a shortcoming. Although he remembered his previous life, many things are not comprehensive. He knows the general things, but many things are not clear!But this does not affect his mood, after all, even if he has no memory of his previous life, he can still be the emperor.

Looking at Ji Xuanyao's excited appearance, Fang Ningrui kept persuading Ji Xuanyao to manufacture gunpowder in large quantities. Ji Xuanyao nodded and handed over the matter to Fang Ningrui.

Fang Ningrui was particularly obsessed with gunpowder. When he heard that he was going to manufacture a large amount of gunpowder, he forgot that his sister was still in the harem, so he immediately left the palace and went back.

"Cai Quan, send someone to keep an eye on Fang Ningrui. What Fang Ningrui did is a big deal. If this thing falls into the hands of others, it will be dangerous!" Ji Xuanyao told Cai Quan coldly.

Cai Quan responded.
