Chapter 143 Black Gunpowder

On a double-carriage four-wheeled carriage, there were more than 30 boxes of unloaded goods, each box containing one or two bags of goods, with a variety of complexity, and at least more than half of the things were something Dongming had never heard of.

He knew that the secret master was knowledgeable and liked to use various strange materials to make some magical items. Before that, he had only heard of it, but had never seen it with his own eyes. Although he was a master, he had no chance to get close to the secret master.

"Neither, this is an ice silkworm, which is alive. There are two pairs in total, which is very precious." The manager carefully opened a brocade box, and there were four thumb-sized bugs inside, which were slightly squirming.

Dongming looked at this little thing in surprise. He had heard of this trick. It is said that it grew in Tianchi, Liaodi, and is a half-water and half-terrestrial creature. It lives on trees beside Tianchi during the day. At night, it goes into Tianchi to rest. It is cautious by nature and is difficult to catch.

Tianchi in Liaodi can be regarded as a zodiac sign. The mountain is thousands of feet high. Starting from the middle of the mountain, the snow has not melted all year round. Monsters are rampant in the mountains and are protected by the gods of snow mountain. If the sound is louder, it will cause the gods to be angry. No matter if you are a master, you will be swallowed by the gods.

There is a pool of cold water on the top of the mountain, which is in an extremely cold place, but it does not freeze. The sky pool is deep and the water is biting cold. No one dares to go there easily. Even if it is a warrior, nine of them will not come back ten.

The problem is that there is nothing useful except for the occasional wild ginseng on the Tianchi Lake in the snow-capped mountains in Liao. I tried my best to go up the mountain just to catch two pairs of ice silkworms, and Dongming was also drunk.

Ice ginseng is indeed a good thing. It can spit out ice silk and weave brocade with ice silk, and is not afraid of the fire. Wearing ice silkworm brocade in summer can make it cool for a summer, and it is a magical thing.

But the small ice silkworm is extremely fragile. As long as you leave Tianchi in Liaodi, it will be difficult to survive even in an igloo. With the ice town, how many months it can survive is the limit. The most troublesome thing is that if you leave Tianchi, the ice silkworm will not eat, drink, or spit silk, and become a waste. If you want it, it is useless, and it is a pity to abandon it.

In the entire Great Chu, there are only two short robes made of ice silkworm brocade in the palace, which were accumulated over the past three hundred years.

A short coat requires almost half a pound of ice silk, while a pound of ice silk requires more than 200 ice silk pupae. Ice silkworms cannot be raised, so they can only wait until the ice silkworms are at the coldest time in winter to search for the Tianchi Lake in the Snow Mountains of Liaodi.

These two ice silkworm brocade short clothes are slowly accumulated by ice silkworm pupae. It can be said that there is a wronged soul on each silk.

Dongming instructed the manager to take over the ice silkworms and shook his head slightly. He was young and energetic. There are many secret masters who study ice silkworms. It is said that more than ten years ago, Master Bai was also studying ice silkworms for a while, but it was left unresolved. It seems that Master Lei was not giving up and wanted to come here for this time.

In Dongming's opinion, it would be fine if there is no luxury like the ice silkworm brocade. In order to wear a piece of clothing more comfortable, many warriors will die, which is not worth it!

"Neither, this is the King Kong Sand, which comes from a small island overseas, and is harder than fine iron." The King Kong Sand is filled with small bags. This thing is too heavy. A small bag weighs dozens of pounds.

There were too many things. At the beginning, Dongming looked at them carefully. When he encountered a few questions, he asked them a few questions, but he didn't recognize too many things, which seemed to seem stupid.

After asking a few questions, Dongming only looked, listened, and never asked another question. These were all orders issued by Renault, with patterns, introductions, locations and other information on them. According to the manager, this was just the first batch, and there were hundreds of them behind them. Some things were needed by Lei Shi, and they were shipped to Luocheng.

Dongming understood what the secret master wanted. The more he asked, the more he seemed ignorant he looked. It was useless to read, and he couldn't understand it at all.

Fortunately, the princess told him that only weapons, digging tunnel tools and other things were needed, and nothing else was left to worry about.

The princess was really too careful. She didn't look at the number of people in the Shengong Palace. She had only a few people in her hand. It was impossible to dig a tunnel and escape. Even if the original tunnel of the Gong family was used, how far could it be dug?

Mo Xiang held the account book and followed several servants. With the help of the Tian family's manager, he put the goods into the warehouse in different categories. The Gong family's house was big enough that Renault had not many people. Except for the few close ones, he only hired more than twenty servants.

Renault couldn't believe in any of these twenty or so people, probably because they didn't even have a real servant, and they were all sent by various forces. Bai Jing had told him before that if you want to be at ease, you can slowly cultivate personnel by yourself. After a few years, you can replace them with a few batches, and it will be almost done.

Anyway, these people are very stupid. Even if they study knowledge in front of them, they still can't understand it and can use it with confidence.

When the goods were put into storage, Renault wrote a list and told Huzi to pick up the goods. These things were resources scanned by the God of Wealth on the way from southwest to Luocheng.

Most of them are plants that can be used for pharmaceutical production. Renault is really worried about the medical level of Dachu. In his opinion, it is entirely a Buddhist treatment method. Whether he can survive depends on luck.

An ordinary doctor can cure minor illnesses into terminal illnesses. Renault has never seen the level of an imperial physician. Even if it is stronger, it is limited. However, Zigui is very innovative. After seeing him performing surgery on Li Si, Renault is very entangled. To be honest, when he never wants to lie on the operating table in his life, he saw that the surgeon was him. But besides him, is there anyone else in Dachu who can perform surgery?

Renault could not accept the medical method of taking minor illnesses and taking care of serious illnesses at all. Unfortunately, he had never studied medicine and even had average chemistry grades. He could only choose from the names he was familiar in his memory.

For example, among the goods sent this time, there are Jinchona Frost bark and Jinchona Frost. They are archived in the God of Wealth's database. During the scanning process, plants with a similarity of up to 99.9% were found. Reno could basically conclude that it should be this kind of plant.

There is no need to think about extracting and preparing. Renault is in stock. You can also use someone else’s life to experiment with it when you have time. Jinjina cream is not a good thing, and there are many side effects. Unless otherwise absolutely, Renault will not take the medicines prepared by himself.

There are not many resources in the God of Wealth database that can be compared. Apart from Jinjina Shuang, the only one with the best is Tian Qi.

"Huzi, the igloo is ready." Renault asked. Fortunately, it was winter and it was easy to get ice. Huzi had already ordered people to build an igloo and build a six-foot-thick igloo with large pieces of ice.

"It's been a long time ago, but sir, the Ninth Princess said that ice silkworms cannot be raised. The ice silkworms caught do not eat or form cocoons." Hu Zi reminded softly that in the Shengong Hall, only the Ninth Princess had more knowledge. Hu Zi had never even heard of the ice silkworm.

"I know, I always have to try it. We are not short of money anyway." Renault said with a smile. He was really sure of raising ice silkworms. The data provided by the God of Wealth is very detailed. It is just like others can't hatch Tianpeng, but it is the same thing that he can hatch two Tianpengs.

"Okay, as you said, the igloo has been built and the ice water tank has been put in. Do you need to prepare food for the ice silkworms?" Hu Zi asked.

"Please have people prepare these things and put them in the igloo first to see which food the ice silkworm likes. There is no hurry to do this. Just arrange someone to do it. You stay outside the door and I want to do the experiment." Renault said.

Ice silkworms, rooster frost bark, and two bags of rubber are all just by the way. The most important thing is sulfurite and saltpeter.

Although he was learning about electronics, he might not have made weapons like ion guns at all. Before, he had not even prepared to manufacture ancient gunpowder weapons. He always felt that with the protective shell of the Secret Master, he could live in Da Chu safely. Now it seems that it is not possible. It is necessary to prepare in advance. It doesn’t matter if it is not used. At critical moments, something can be used.

The chaos in Luocheng made Renault feel an unprecedented sense of crisis. He began to consider making powerful weapons. Obsessed with martial arts practice is also a means of self-protection. He discovered the new energy module of the God of Wealth before. When he took the energy ball, he was still excited for a while. When he found that his whole body was leaking, it seemed that invincible in the world would be invincible in a short period of time. He had to prepare enough backups.

The purity of saltpeter is very high, and the sulfide stone is worse. Renault has a headache again. He will not purify sulfur. Most of the military traveling through history will mention the best formula for black gunpowder, but they use ready-made materials.

Hell, people are very good at traveling through time. Everything is ready-made. As long as the formula is given, the black gunpowder will succeed immediately. When you arrive at Renault, everything will start from scratch. The world of Great Chu is too unfriendly.

In the past, Renault did not study black gunpowder because he thought it was useless. Even if it was the most primitive available guns, he didn't think he could make it. Metal smelting and metal crafts could block him for several or even more than ten years. In addition, he saw the power of a ninth-grade warrior, so he didn't think that the old black gunpowder could threaten high-level warriors.

This is a different starting point. From Renault to Da Chu, there were a group of warriors around him, which gave him the illusion that Da Chu was all superhuman.

In fact, there are really not many warriors in Da Chu. The number is large because of the large base. Any warrior is one in a hundred.

The charcoal does not require Tian Shouren to transport it. This thing is the main raw material for heating in Dachu. There are many things in the Shengong Temple that grind the three materials into powder and mix them carefully in proportion. The purity issue will be considered later. Renault needs to test it to confirm whether the substance black gunpowder has the same chemical reaction in the world of Dachu.

The other benefits of advanced to the eighth-grade warrior have not yet been seen, and the physical strength improvement is very obvious. Renault has been busy for more than an hour and has not felt tired at all.
