Chapter 37 Prince Zhu, you have to resist! (Give me a monthly ticket!)

"Okay, it's ground!"

Chen Yonghua had already ground a large plate of powdered sugar at this time, which were all covered with snow-white and white. They were all placed in a square, slightly flat wooden box.

Zheng Jing looked at the white powdered sugar and somehow thought of rice cakes and steamed buns... It should be good to dip them, so it won't be ordered later and it won't be wasted.

Although Zheng Jing’s grandfather is the richest man in the world, as the saying goes, wealth will not last for three generations! Therefore, Zheng Jing, who was rich for three generations, has been living a relatively difficult life after taking over the family business, which is a bleak business!

I am used to saving and can't waste it.

At this time, Chen Yonghua looked at Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan with a smile, "Guard Feng, General Liu, do you still think this sugar powder cannot be used?"

Neither Feng Xifan nor Liu Guoxuan believed it!

How can powdered sugar be burned?

Both of them shook their heads.

"Then try it!"

Chen Yonghua said while also coming over a very thick red candle that had been lit long ago, and then inserted it directly into the wooden box filled with powdered sugar.

Zheng Jing frowned - it was a bit of a waste of things! Can I still eat this powdered sugar powder if it was dirty with candle oil?

Thinking of this, Zheng Jing asked Chen Yonghua: "Military advisor, what are you going to do? Why put a candle in the middle of the powdered sugar?"

Chen Yonghua replied: "King, I am trying to ignite the fire!"

"How to click?"

"Blow up!" Chen Yonghua smiled, "Blow up hard at the powdered sugar!"

"Oh..." Zheng Jing was so rare that he could still ignite the fire when blown?

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

As he said that Zheng Jing was about to blow, but Chen Yonghua was scared and he quickly grabbed King Yanping, "King, don't blow... This is dangerous!"

Chen Yonghua saw Zhu Hesheng playing this trick in Dahao's Dongyin Money Factory (Ephesian Pang's industry). At that time, Zhu Hesheng used this trick to scare Qiu Shuzhen... It was so furious that Miss Qiu Si was so scared that she screamed and hid in Zhu Hesheng's arms!

"Dangerous?" Zheng Jing stopped blowing as soon as he heard that there was danger and took two steps back. Then he said to Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan: "Feng Weiwei, Liu Guanzhen, you two will blow!"

If you are in danger, let us go?

Although Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan were a little scared, they still had to bite the bullet! They both bowed their hands and took the order, and then looked at Chen Yonghua coldly - the surname Chen, tell me, how can you brag!

Chen Yonghua took out three paper tubes made of hard yellow paper that had been prepared long ago, and gave them two to Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan, and one of them was used by himself. In the end, he asked Zheng Jing to order that three of them could blow the sugar in the wooden box into dust.

Although Zheng Jing is already thirty years old, he is still a little childlike innocence. It is really interesting to see the three ministers below taking the paper tube and facing the mouth, facing the other one at a wooden box full of powdered sugar, and puffing their cheeks.

So he held his smile and shouted: "Blow!"

"boom......"

The three of them blew hard, and the sugar powder rose up, and then ignited by the candle flame, forming a very scary fireball.

Chen Yonghua had been mentally prepared for a long time and could still fry the powdered sugar on the noodles without changing his expression, but Zheng Jing, Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan were all scared and screamed.

"Fall it, it's really fried!"

"Wow, this is amazing..."

"Ah, ah..."

After the three of them finished screaming, they turned around and looked at Chen Yonghua who was calm and composed, all of them were stunned.

Chen Yonghua smiled and said to Zheng Jing: "King, this is actually nothing. If you boil the sugar into a paste and then mix it with heat and rust, it will be awesome when it is hot. If you pour the paste and copper coins into a hollow copper hammer while it is hot, then insert the plug and the fire wire... it will be a very powerful flowering bullet!

According to Artillery Zhu, his father, the third prince Zhu, used this flowering bullet to defeat the flag army of Xushun Gongfu in the capital of Guiyu! And Artillery Zhu is willing to help us train pharmacy masters."

It turned out that Zhu Heying had already passed on the preparation method of sweet gunpowder to Chen Yonghua!

It’s not that he doesn’t want to keep it secret, but that this sweet gunpowder cannot be preserved for a long time - both tinea and sugar are very susceptible to moisture. There is no suitable desiccant and cannot be sealed, so it can only be prepared in the last minute.

Zhu Hezang has reached an agreement with the boss Hui and Chen Yonghua, and he will help train a group of "pharmaceutical apprentices" sent by the Chaozhou General Office and the Yanping Prince's Mansion.

Liu Guoxuan next to him hurriedly asked: "Military advisor, did the bandits of Dananshan really defeat the flag army of Xushun Gong's Mansion?"

Chen Yonghua nodded, "It's true, at least 200 people were killed!"

"Two hundred..." Feng Xifan also took a deep breath, "Military advisor, did you just say that his father is the third prince Zhu? Is that true?"

Zheng Jing also asked: "Yes, isn't that Zhu Jushan from the Tang Palace? How did he become Prince Zhu San? Is it true?"

"I think it's quite true..." Chen Yonghua nodded and said, "Master, let's just think he's true!"

Zheng Jing frowned, "Military advisor, can you please let me go about this?"

"Why can't it?" Chen Yonghua smiled, "King, what's wrong with someone coming out to be the number one enemy of the Tartar court?"

Zheng Jing held his beard and frowned, as if he was weighing something in his heart?

After a while, he asked Chen Yonghua: "They really have such ability?"

"You can try it." Chen Yonghua said.

"How to try?"

Chen Yonghua said: "Zhu and his father-in-law Qiu Hui are preparing to join forces to attack Jieyang County, to surround Wei and rescue Zhao, and to lift the siege of Guiyu Capital. I suggest that our Yanping Palace can send one or two thousand troops, and then ignite muskets, fire and armor to help them succeed.

If artillery Zhu and the king of heaven really seized Jieyang County with the help of Qiu Hui... we will push them again and push them on stage to compete with the young Ying singer of the Tartars!"

"Push a hand?" Zheng Jing looked at Chen Yonghua, "You mean..."

Chen Yonghua smiled and spit out four words: "Ding Wang Jianguo!"

"What? Let the king Zhu Jianguo?"

"Military advisor, aren't you afraid that the two father and son will ride on our Yanping Palace when they grow old?"

Before Zheng Jing could say anything, Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan had already jumped out to protect their master.

Zheng Jing did not comment, but just looked at Chen Yonghua.

Chen Yonghua smiled and said, "King, we can join forces with the boss Hui to push the Heavenly King Zhu and the Cannon Zhu into Jieyang County, and then push the Heavenly King Zhu to the position of governor... In this way, he will be the number one mortal enemy of the Tartar Emperor. Moreover, Jieyang County is in the front and faces the Tartars' soldiers!

With them as targets for Manchus, our pressure will be much less, and we will have the opportunity to grow and grow. Didn’t the Ming Taizu use the red scarf to protect the wind and rain in this way?

As for getting bigger... If you really can make bigger, you have to defeat the troops of the Tartar court again and again!

Now the Tartar court is already in the world, and it can mobilize the power of the world to attack a county town of Prince Zhu San. If this can be made bigger...that is the will of heaven, and the will of heaven cannot be violated!"

Zheng Jing nodded and smiled bitterly, "That's right... The Tartars were quite powerful. The previous king was defeated by Jinling and his family was defeated by Jinxia. Now there is only one corner of Taiwan and a few coastal islands, as well as a little territory on the land of Chaozhou. The population of Taiwan is only more than 100,000, and the soldiers are only more than 10,000, which is invincible!

If a person without destiny is gone, the situation will be gone. If the destiny is really clear, then the lonely family can always take back the property of their ancestors and be the rich family, right?"

He, a rich man, has a bit of high requirements!

Zheng Zhilong is the richest man in the world, and his real wealth is as good as a country... Emperor Chongzhen's court can receive only more than one million taels of silver (not counting food or local finance) a year, while Lao Zheng's income of at least several million yuan a year is much better than being an emperor!

Moreover, Lao Zheng also monopolized the road blocking and charging business in the southeastern sea of ​​the Ming Dynasty, and was a monopoly capitalist who collected money while lying down!

To be honest, Zheng Jing now has no ambition to fight for the world and be the emperor. He is a Taiwanese island owner who is too stingy, so why are he the emperor?

More importantly, he had no confidence in defeating the Tartar court... In the original history, when Wu Sangui had attracted the main forces of the Qing Dynasty to the Huguang battlefield, he did not dare to go north and go to Nanjing. In this situation, how could he still have the intention to compete for the world?

While Zheng Jing was expressing his feelings to his three confidants, a guard from the Yanping Palace quickly walked in, bowed to Zheng Jing, and reported loudly: "The king, the Hongmao Guofan business manager's leader to investigate the Grand Chamber and Ji Second Chamber to ask for a meeting."

Zheng Jing heard that these two people came to see each other, and looked disgusted, "It was them again..."

Chen Yonghua also knew the purpose of these two people, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why not let the ministers take them to Chaozhou."
