The research and development of black gunpowder is actually not difficult, there are only three materials.

At the same time, the higher the purity of the material and the better the quality, the greater the power of the black gunpowder.

If it is just the first generation of black gunpowder, it is actually possible to mix three materials together at will, but the effect may not meet expectations.

However, this is not a problem for Wang Buye.

Although he doesn't know the specific ratio, he can go to the test.

Wang Buye asked someone to find three materials and three stone mortars, but the hammer was made of wood.

Wang Buxing still has this kind of safety awareness. He doesn't want to be the first emperor in history to kill himself.

If the hammer is also a stone, then it is possible that the stone will emit sparks when it collides with the stone.

When gunpowder meets sparks, what is the famous scene?

On the contrary, if you use a wooden hammer, no matter how much force is used or what position you use, there will be no sparks. Safety can be guaranteed 100%.

At the same time, in order to avoid the mixing of residues in the stone mortar affecting the purity, Wang Buye directly made three stone mortars and mashed the three materials separately.

Of course, Wang Buye actually wanted to do it himself from beginning to end.

But now it is a bit inappropriate to do the most basic things in this identity.

It’s not that I am floating, but that there are historians around me.

At least the emperor still needs to be like a person, but Wang Buye will not give up the opportunity to do it himself.

The task of crushing was directly handed over to the Imperial Guards to take charge. Not to mention the big and thick ones, at least the strength was very strong.

In addition, Wang Buye is just an experimental nature, so he doesn’t need too much raw materials.

However, in a moment, three portions of the same amount of raw materials were pounded into powder.

At this time, the balance scale was also taken from the pharmacy.

Wang Buye thought about it for a while, first mixed thirty grams of them in a ratio of one to one, and then stirred them thoroughly.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Zhang Buyi looked at Wang Buye with a confused look on his face.

He has seen many scientific research processes, which one is not careful and careful?

This is the first time Zhang Buyi has seen a carefree scientific research model like Wang Buye.

And simply mash several materials together according to the same weight?

Isn't this fooling people?

"I suddenly had an idea in my mind, so I wanted to try it out if it could work." Wang Buye said lightly, and then handed the black gunpowder that had just been configured to Zhang Buyi, and explained: "Go and sprinkle these on the open space and light them with a torch!"

"Oh!" Zhang Buyi took the black gunpowder in his hand with a confused look on his face, and then went to the open space ahead to prepare for the test.

Wang Buye is not idle either. If you can do such dangerous things yourself, you won’t do them yourself, although there will be no danger.

Besides, what do you think of gunpowder?

Although he will explode, the scattered gunpowder will not explode.

With only a tiny amount, it is in such a large open space.

Basically, as long as you don't put your head on, nothing will happen.

And even if it is stuck on, there is no big problem with a little distance. It is just that the hair is burned.

As for burns or something, it was completely attached and was rubbed by the flames.

While Zhang Buyi was going to test, Wang Buye picked up the pen and recorded the formula ratio just now.

Although this is a very simple ratio, it takes countless trials to find a truly suitable ratio.

As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Although it seems that a few words have been written, it will save trouble later.

‘Shisheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshe

Zhang Buyi poured the black gunpowder on the open space, then took a torch and placed it on it for about a few seconds. The black gunpowder began to react.

"Damn..."

The sudden change was frightened by Zhang Buyi, suddenly retreating, and a terrified look appeared in his eyes.

Looking at the black smoke rising from the ground, I became even more confused.

Fortunately, there was not much 90 grams of black gunpowder. Although it was a little difficult to ignite, it was burned out quickly.

The amount of black smoke produced is not large.

Zhang Buyi, who knew it later, then realized it and quickly looked at Wang Bue and said, "Your Majesty, what's going on? Why are you still smoking?"

"Haha, you usually want to read more books, but you just refuse. How is it now? You can't even understand this principle, do you regret it?" Wang Buye smiled and rolled his eyes at Zhang Buyi.

"..." Zhang Buyi looked speechless.

It seems that you can understand the principle of this thing by reading more books.

The problem is that if you really study, you can solve this problem. So many people who read books now, why no one has made this thing?

So, the emperor is actually idle and has nothing to do, so he wants to trick me into studying.

If you don't go, you won't go even if you beat him to death.

Anyway, I read enough books now. I only need to manage the Imperial Guards on weekdays, and I don’t need to worry about the rest.

If you have the time to study, it is better to go home and build more people. At least this has responded to the call of the court and contributed to the Han Dynasty's plan to increase the population.

Wang Buye squatted on the ground and looked at the burning traces just now.

A deep black mark was left on the ground, and some residues of the black gunpowder remained on the ground without burning.

Seeing this, Wang Buye directly ruled out this ratio.

There is nothing to say, this is a failed recipe.

Not to mention anything else, it took a few seconds to ignite the fire alone, which made Wang Buye shake his head.

If you really get on the battlefield, that's OK?

What a f*ck!

So, Wang Buye turned his head and returned to his recipe studio and directly changed the recipe ratio.

This time, one was reconfigured in a ratio of five to three to two.

This fifth is naturally saltpeter, the third is sulfur, and the second is charcoal.

The effect of this test was slightly better than the last time, but there were still many residues, which still proved that the formula ratio was incorrect, at least not yet reached the best.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Buye adjusted the formula ratio to six to two to two.

This time the effect was even better, and Wang Buye was actually a little satisfied with the result.

After only three trials, I almost found the best formula ratio.

It seems that we are indeed a scientist who has been delayed by the throne.

If I had not become this emperor, I would not know how many years would the country's science have to improve!

Of course, science is rigorous, and every experiment does not mean that you just think you have found the best ratio.

First, we need to go through a lot of experiments and demonstrations, and then select a few of the best results from the results.

Then look for a better one from these best-effects, and if possible, continue to optimize this.
