After Emperor Wei and a group of humerus returned from the East Palace, they were still discussing the use of concrete.
Because they discovered that concrete can not only repair city defenses, but can also be used in many fields.
at the same time.
Fu'an, the chief steward of the Imperial Palace, came from outside the palace, stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, Deng Bao is asking to see you, saying that he is delivering a note to the Prince Consort."
"Pass the note?"
Emperor Wei was stunned, frowned slightly, and nodded, "Let him come in."
Qin Wenyao and others were also very curious. Qin Yu had never taken the initiative to ask Emperor Wei for approval.
After a while, Deng Bao came from outside the palace, saluted and said, "I have seen your Majesty."
Emperor Wei raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What note did the consort ask you to pass to me? Take it out and show it to me."
Regarding Qin Yu's affairs, Emperor Wei was quite concerned about it. After all, there was nothing trivial that Qin Yu could focus on.
Deng Bao hurriedly took out the note.
After Fu'an took it, he handed it to Emperor Wei.
Qin Wenyao and the others just stared at the note in Emperor Wei's hand, eager to see through it.
Emperor Wei took the note and read it carefully, for fear of missing any word. The note was very long and densely filled with things, but the things he studied were very simple.
"Fire bombs?"
Emperor Wei frowned, a little confused, "Is this the kind of weapon with huge destructive power that the consort mentioned?"
Deng Bao nodded in response, "Your Majesty, these items were indeed requested by the Firearms Supervisor. They are a type of firearm developed by the Prince Consort. The Prince Consort said they were weapons to be brought to Guyang Pass for guarding."
Hearing that it was to defend Yangguan, Qin Wenyao and others became even more curious.
After all, Qin Yu had just developed a unique building material like concrete, so this fire bomb must not be simple.
Emperor Wei listened, still frowning deeply, "I understand the truth, but isn't it too much to spend 400,000 taels of silver? Not counting the personnel and materials..."
"What?"
Qin Wenyao couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, "What kind of weapon costs 400,000 taels of silver to research? This is ridiculous!"
Emperor Wei was anxious, and Qin Wenyao was even more anxious than Emperor Wei. The two of them were obsessed with money, and compared with the iron rooster's penny.
But not only Wei Huang and Qin Wenyao, but also everyone in the humerus felt incredible.
Qin Yu had already anticipated their reaction and had informed Deng Bao in advance.
Deng Bao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Prince Consort said this is true. This is not only the research and development cost, but also the manufacturing cost. Although the cost of the fire bomb is high, its power is amazing. When the thing is made, your Majesty will feel it at a glance.
Excellent value for money...”
Listen to what Deng Bao said.
Emperor Wei couldn't be more pretentious. After all, Qin Yu's money was spent wisely, and Qin Yu's words were very credible.
Emperor Wei turned to look at Qin Wenyao and muttered: "Wenyao, I will approve the money as soon as I see it. We are not short of this money now. After all, Qin Yu also wants to defend Guyang Pass. If Guyang Pass is broken,
, No matter how much money we ask for, what’s the use? If you think it’s too much, just give me 100,000 from my private treasury, for..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Qin Wenyao nodded solemnly, "Okay, Wei Chen agrees. The Ministry of Finance will provide 300,000 yuan, and your Majesty will provide 100,000 yuan. Wei Chen will approve it soon."
Emperor Wei: "..."
He looked at Qin Wenyao with a confused look on his face, feeling that he was pretending too early.
But he had already said his words, and it was difficult to take them back, so he had no choice but to pay the money.
Emperor Wei turned to look at Deng Bao and muttered: "I approved the money, but go and tell Qin Yu that if the power of the fire bomb is not as strong as he said, I will deduct the money from Zhang's Trading Company!"
Qin Wenyao looked serious, lowered his eyes and said: "Yes, if he dares to tell lies, his money will be deducted!"
Emperor Wei: "......"
Although he was a little speechless, Qin Wenyao's words made Emperor Wei feel a lot more comfortable. When it came to money, Qin Wenyao really disowned everyone and loved everyone.
After the note was approved, Deng Bao left. Emperor Wei and others continued to discuss matters. They were not as free as Qin Yu and Xiao Nan.
.......
The fifth year of the second lunar month in the fifth year of Longsheng.
Dawei.
Jinling City.
The weather has gradually gotten warmer, but nearly 200,000 elite troops transferred from seven other states have all arrived at the borders of Jinling City.
This means that the imperial court has confiscated a lot of landowners' food and there is no shortage of food. Otherwise, Emperor Wei would not have dared to easily transfer all these troops to Jingzhou.
At this time, everyone also understood the importance of Qin Yu's step-by-step development plan. If one step is missed, subsequent plans will not be carried out.
However, it is really not a small matter for these soldiers and horses to come to Jinling City. Let's not talk about people eating horses. There are many soldiers who are not accustomed to the climate, and there are a lot of messy things.
Western suburbs.
military camp.
This place was originally used by the previous dynasty, but was later abandoned, and now it comes in handy.
Emperor Wei ordered the Ministry of Industry to build stoves in the camp in advance, otherwise the soldiers would have a hard time. Although the weather has gotten warmer, it is still relatively cold for the soldiers in the south.
Qin Yu, Xiao Nan, and Shen Binglan walked in the military camp with Su Fu and Chu Weiwei.
When he entered the military camp today, Xiao Nan specially put on his expensive Overlord Armor, with a horizontal sword on his waist, giving him a majestic look and the demeanor of a general.
In Xiao Nan's words, the military camp is sacred and must be given sufficient respect.
Qin Yu walked beside Su Fu and said slowly, "Mr. Su, it's really hard for you to ask you to come to the military camp to help in this cold weather."
There were many soldiers and horses coming to Jinling City today, and there were also many soldiers who were not accustomed to the acclimatization. Qin Yu had no choice but to move Su Fu here.
Su Fu smiled and waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. You can manage the Wei Dynasty like this in just two years. You are truly the first person in history."
Su Fu already admired Qin Yu's performance very much. Now Qin Yu's direction of developing the Wei Dynasty is exactly what Su Fu expected.
He really didn't expect that Qin Yu completed the political reform and land reform of the Wei Dynasty in less than a year, and gave all the land to the people.
Today, Qin Yu brought Su Fuli to the military camp for one thing, and the other was to test the power of the fire bombs.
He made his cheap father and his cheap father-in-law spend such a big price.
They are such fussy people, if they don't see the results, they will definitely quit.
Afterwards, Qin Yu, Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan went straight to the martial arts arena.
Shen Binglan doesn't care about the upcoming war, it's the same wherever she is.
However, in the past few days, some very vague memory fragments suddenly appeared in Shen Binglan's mind, but they could not be connected at all.
Su Fu and Chu Weiwei went straight to the medical camp.
