Chapter 7: Patent money for grenades ()

Fu Mingde was sweating profusely and was so scared that he was dying. He knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Don't calm your anger, your anger."

Yang Jing smiled and said, "I am not going to hold you accountable. I just want to tell you that it is a little better to the workers so that they will be willing to make guns with their heart. Do you understand? In this way, you can find a few skilled craftsmen, who are very good at making firearms. I have to do something. In addition, check the muskets in the arsenal again. If there is no fire or a blow-off, find it for me immediately. If one of the muskets you gave me explodes, I will let you carry a blow-off bird gun and fire. Do you understand?"

Yang Jingwei's smile was definitely terrifying in Fu Mingde's eyes. Fu Mingde's face was ashamed and fired with a bird gun that could explode. What an exciting game!

"Haha, old rich! I am not going to attack you, but just let you understand that the quality of a weapon will affect the life of a soldier, the life of a soldier will affect the battle of a row of soldiers, the battle of a row of soldiers will affect the victory or defeat of a battle, the victory or defeat of a battle will affect the victory or defeat of a war, and the victory or defeat of a war will affect the survival of a country. Do you understand what I said?" Yang Jing smiled and patted Fu Mingde on the shoulder.

Fu Mingde was already stunned.

The edict to recruit the people from all over the world to Beijing is almost issued. Although the cabinet and ministers objected to this matter, the wise and wise lord who moved to Wei Zhongxian in one fell swoop, the cabinet and ministers would not say much. The other reason was that many people in the cabinet and ministers were involved in the Wei case. They heard that the emperor was preparing to pay the money for atonement and did not want to commit more murders when he ascended the throne. They secretly wanted to escape, so they did not object too much to these matters. Otherwise, the emperor would annoy him and re-determine the Wei case. This cabinet and many ministers would not be able to take it.

Yang Jingde has been discussing these old firearm craftsmen whom Fu Mingde introduced to them for several days. From the beginning, when it was very restricted to the improvement and invention of firearms, most of them were not restricted and could talk hard.

"Mr. Zhang, how are you discussing?"

"Return to the emperor, the grass people have discussed it. The grenade proposed by the emperor has almost achieved preliminary results." An old man is very thin and older. The years have carved enough marks on him. There is no excess meat on his body. He is Zhang Gong, firearm, and expert in Yang Jing's words. He is in good spirits.

"Oh, is it? Show it to me." Yang Jie took the picture, which was indeed an exploded picture of the grenade. "What are you going to use to explode **?"

"Back to the emperor, we are going to use black gunpowder, but the explosive power of this black gunpowder is not very high. In addition, if the time is long, the powder will precipitate, and the nitrate will belong to nitrate, and sulfur will belong to sulfur, so that it will not even explode." Zhang Gong introduced.

"Well, this question is really tricky. Do you have any solutions?"

"Back to the emperor, we heard the pellet method mentioned by the emperor and thought it was feasible, so we tried to make some and made a few grenades. We wanted to ask the emperor to see." Zhang Gong was very confident in the grenades he made.

"Well, then okay, go to the schoolyard." The group went to the schoolyard in a mighty manner.

The school yard is neither big nor small, about as big as a football stadium. Mr. Zhang lit the fuse from a distance. The fuse was burned for about half a minute before it reached the iron box. He heard a bang and exploded. The smoke filled the gunpowder, and the wooden boards that were the target had been blown away, leaving many bullet marks.

Yang Jie first applauded. The others were deaf and didn't react for a long time. Seeing the emperor clapping, the others also applauded.

Gong Zhang, Gong Li and his group of people who were responsible for the development of grenades were all very happy. After all, they completed the emperor's instructions, became the imperial envoy and became addicted to it.

"Not bad, not bad. It's just that the fuse is a little longer." Yang Jie said.

"Reply to the emperor, this fuse can actually be shortened, but today it has been specially extended for the sake of the emperor's safety."

"Well, it's not bad, but I think this grenade needs to be ignited with a fuse."

"Back to the emperor, yes, this grenade weighs about two kilograms and four liang. The front part is a head cast with iron, and there is a particle of gunpowder inside. The back end is a wooden handle, and a fuse is left in the middle. The fuse is connected to the particle of gunpowder. There is a cover at the end. Unscrew the cover, ignite the fuse, and throw it out. It will explode after about four or five breaths." Zhang Gong explained in detail.

In the Royal Arsenal, sulfur, charcoal and saltpeter were all purified and screened. Just looking at the effect from the explosion, it seems that it is OK. Yang Jing saved the trouble of purifying saltpeter and sulfur, and saved other time travelers who also needed to carefully get saltpeter and sulfur. That was to buy as much as they wanted, and use as much as they wanted, and it was open and honest. However, the purification method is not very simple and effective now, and Yang Jing felt that it was necessary to think of a more step-by-step solution.

Originally, there was a fire pulling device on the grenade, but unfortunately, there is no match recipe now. Otherwise, if you pull the match out, you will have the fire pulling device for the grenade. Since there is not, then use this kind of ignition method first. As for pulling the fire, think of a way to get the match out.

Thinking of this, Yang Jing thought it was not bad. At least you don’t have to worry about the purification of saltpeter and sulfur. It was originally available in the Royal Arsenal, and it was also available in the pellets. It was estimated that it was his own contribution to making it into grenades.

"Very good, let's do it, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li, you all have worked hard. In this way, each of you five receives 100 taels of silver, and each of the craftsmen in the military battle is paying 2 taels of silver. It's the Chinese New Year, everyone is happy." There are five craftsmen that Fu Mingde found for Yang Jing. In the military battle, he was responsible for weapons development. Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li specialize in firearms.

"The people in the grass thank the emperor for their kindness. Long live the emperor." Almost all the people who were kneeling all over the ground on the school ground were craftsmen.

Yang Jing thought this was great, and he gained the loyalty of many people without spending much money. He was much better than those civil officials who were not fed outside.

"Fu Mingde." Yang Jingying shouted.

"I am here." Fu Mingde quickly stepped out of the line and knelt on the ground.

"Get up, I'll give you a task. I'm going to increase the production of this grenade. The more the better. Do you understand? You have to be responsible for the production. For the quality of the grenade, you must not be harsh on the craftsmen. The wages must be slightly higher. For every qualified grenade, I will reward you with a penny. Don't underestimate this penny. The gathering is too small. When you can make hundreds of thousands of grenades, you will find that you have a lot of money. Do you understand? In addition, Zhang Gong, Li Gong, you two also enjoy this rule. Grenades were invented. You two can make a penny profit from each grenade. I call this a patent. Do you understand?"

Everyone exclaimed after hearing what the emperor said. This was a rule that had never been done before. To build hundreds of thousands of grenades, it would be a profit of hundreds of thousands of cents. That would be a huge sum. More people were surprised that they could actually make a profit from it after inventing new things. Patents seemed to be a good thing.

"Fu Mingde follows the order and will definitely live up to the emperor's high hopes." Fu Mingde knelt diligently on the ground and kowtowed to thank him, extremely happy. Zhang Gong and Li Gong opened their mouths wide and were so surprised that they could not speak.

This incident soon spread outside. The ministers were very worried about the emperor's behavior and taught the emperor in a verbal way. However, Yang Jing thought they were NPCs and what they said was fart.

The fire device, matches, Yang Jie always thought about this thing in his mind.

The queen is a little loli, which is Yang Jing’s enlightenment. Judging from her outfit, she is in her early twenties.

Yang Jie found out when the two of them were preparing to communicate. This made Yang Jie feel a little unable to do anything. No matter how you look at it, it felt like it was a story about the strange uncle and the little loli.

Yang Jing had a feeling that the Ming Dynasty was full of lolita control. He got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen and had a lot of children. Faced with such a little lolita, Yang Jing felt that he couldn't do anything. Holding such a little lolita, Yang Jing felt that he was suffering alive.

The person in his arms also clearly felt Chongzhen's strangeness, twisted his body coquettishly, and said, "Your Majesty, do you don't like Wan'er anymore?"

"I don't like you anymore. I just think your body is too thin and getting pregnant too early is afraid it will be bad for your health." Yang Jie also knew that getting pregnant too early is a huge burden on women's health.

"Your Majesty, no, many people in my hometown have already given birth to children. Isn't it okay?" After saying that, he twisted.

Yang Jing felt it was fatal. It would be impossible to say that a bare ketone body crawled on him without moving. But when he thought of it, he felt that he had a psychological barrier.

There is a reaction when you are stuck in the obstacle, but you do have a reaction.

Queen Zhou Wan'er said in her ear: "Emperor, there is already...hehe."

After a moment of venting, Yang Jingcai fell asleep beautifully. In the middle of the night, he dreamed that he was like the previous dream. He actually sat in front of the computer. The browser opened on Baidu. Yang Jingcai kept looking for match recipes during the day, and when he thought of this, he opened it and searched.

Soon, Yang Jie found out how to make matches, or safe matches. When he looked back, he saw manganese dioxide and hydrochloric acid. Yang Jie felt dizzy when he saw these things. Now at the level of the Ming Dynasty, it was absolutely impossible to create these things. It seems that his grenade can only be ignited by ignition rope. However, for his dream of returning to Baidu to check things in his dream, Yang Jie felt that he was too happy. This is a thing that goes against the will of heaven. Unfortunately, it took too short a time to dream back to Baidu, and he could only check things on Baidu. It would not work if he exceeded this range. Yang Jie wanted to watch pure films, but he didn't see anything.
