Chao Yuanfang observed many dirty microorganism profiles from the water. Although he didn't know what they were, Chao Yuanfang found that after testing, there were many fewer of these creatures in boiling water.

Therefore, I specifically suggested to Xu Mu.

In fact, during the ongoing epidemic, Xu Mu issued a government order to let the whole city drink boiling water, but...

People in this era have become accustomed to drinking raw water. Apart from making tea, few people will do this and choose to boil the water.

So...

The lord's mansion has issued a new policy, and the minor officials informed the whole city that epidemics are raging, drinking raw water is prone to infection, and people are prohibited from drinking raw water.

After this epidemic, the lord's mansion had unparalleled prestige, and the people quickly supported this policy.

Every household no longer drinks raw water, but chooses to boil it and drink it.

At the same time, Xu Mu was thinking about whether he could complete the water plant at this stage...

It provides access to every household in Wanmin City with pipelines.

Because at this stage, most of the people in Wanmin City have obtained water sources from digging wells.

More troublesome.

But if you want to create tap water, you have to solve the problem of continuous water supply power, and a steam engine is essential.

But the current research institute is still a bit far from studying a steam engine.

Helplessly, Xu Mu had to postpone this matter and then quoted it to various fields after the steam engine was developed in the future.

...

In addition to the microscope, this time, the telescope developed by the institute was also handed over to Pei Yun by Xu Mu.

After the matter of the Medical Department is resolved, the next step is the problem of the Craftsman Department.

Pei Yun, after seeing the ingenious craftsmanship and being able to see a telescope thousands of meters away...

Silenced for a long time.

No words were spoken.

Then he became unable to let go of his love.

As a general, he was very clear about the current craftsmanship of the Great Sui craftsmen and knew very well... they could not create such exquisite things.

The telescope can see thousands of meters away, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a masterpiece.

Moreover... In this era, rebellions are everywhere. If there is such an object, the advantage of marching and fighting is great!

After Xu Mu made the modified version of the telescope, he immediately sent Zhang Xutuo a pass.

It’s just that Pei Yun and Chao Yuanfang are completely different.

Although he was the general to serve as a chief supervisor, he had no lofty ideals, and Xu Mu was not good at all... to fool him.

Even if he showed the superb skills of the telescope, he could not be convinced at once.

Helplessly, Xu Mu had no choice but to call Pei Ju and asked him to find a way to make Pei Yun surrender.

As for those craftsmen, it is much easier to surrender.

They put their knives around their necks and were given enough compensation. They were quickly reorganized and joined the Craftsman Division.

At this point, the talents that Jiangdu and his group "bringed back" were completely digested by Wanmincheng, except Pei Yun.

The copper mine in Xiaojinshan, Jiangdu was mined by the military team led by Kong Xingyue, and was carried by five hundred Wanmin merchants, and passed through Yangcheng and transported into Wanmincheng.

Almost every day, a large number of copper ores are transported to Wanmin City. Looking at the gradually piled up copper ores, Xu Mu smiled with relief.

This... will be an important strategic resource for the next development of Wanmincheng!

As soon as he came, with these copper ores, he could cast copper coins, which was equivalent to having a continuous stream of copper coins!

With the development of Wanmin Business, there is enough funds to quickly promote it to all prefectures and counties in the world!

In addition, many high-tech craftsmanship are inseparable from copper. In the following time, Xu Mu selected some craftsmen from the Craftsman Department who were willing to sign a dead contract and enjoy high treatment and joined the institute.

After it was expanded, the institute was asked to make every effort to develop a steam engine.

Replace current manpower with steam power.

If a steam engine is developed and subsequently loaded on a merchant ship, it can greatly increase the transportation speed and... the speed of marching and sneak attacks.

However, after just two days of transportation of the copper mine, Xu Mu received a letter from Kong Xingyue.

"At the end of the day, the general was incompetent and was sailing on the Huai River. He encountered a thief on the road, which led to... the copper mine being robbed. I beg the lord to punish him!"

Holding this letter, Xu Mu's expression gradually subsided.

Kong Xingyue said in his letter that the people responsible for escorting were all from the military team, and this time he encountered a robber...

More than 30 casualties were caused by the military engineering team!

Since the battle between Wanmin City, how have you ever suffered such a big loss?

If it weren't for the fact that he was exposed too early, Xu Mu would have wanted to give an order to lead Zhang Xutuo to suppress the bandits!

Moreover... Kong Xingyue was robbed, and he still didn't know who the enemy was...

At this point, the weak links of Wanmincheng have gradually been exposed.

Before the intelligence system was fully established, Wanmincheng knew nothing about the outside world.

...

Jianghuai Xianfu Palace.

Sima Dekan led his army to return west and was camping here.

Chaosan doctor Shen Guang was in the mansion, holding a secret letter and frowned.

After a long time, he straightened his body, stroking his palm and laughed, "I'd say that since you treat me with courtesy, I should return your life to you! Meng Cai is a righteous man! Your Majesty treats me very well and must not be wronged and obey the thief. You must avenge your Majesty!"

The person who wrote to him was Mai Mengcai.

He is relatively small, but his father's fame... has run through the Sui Dynasty.

His father was named Mai Tie Staff, and he had a special skill... he traveled a hundred miles a day!

At that time, the Chen Dynasty was not yet dead. He lived in Jiankang, the capital of the Chen Dynasty, which was later Nanjing. Because his family was poor, he was not a slave and was responsible for umbrellas. He had no money at that time, so he often went to Xuzhou City every night... to steal.

That's right, it's stealing.

And he walked quickly and thefts occurred in Xuzhou City, but no matter how the government investigated, he could not find who did it.

No one would have thought that... the perpetrator came from Jiankang, a hundred miles away.

But if you walk too much at night, your shoes will always get wet.

Later, a commoner recognized Mai Mengcai and reported him.

Report to the government, but the government does not believe it anyway.

Because after verification, Mai Meng will appear on Jiankang during the day...

How could you run to Xuzhou to steal at night?

Later, the Minister of Shang Dynasty Cai Zheng set up a plan to offer a reward of 100 gold coins and send an edict to Xuzhou.

As a result, Mai Mengcai, who was not very scheming, received this reward directly because he was poor.

Departing that night, he appeared in the court during the day the next day, responsible for holding the imperial umbrella...

It came even earlier than those ministers.

In this way, his skill as fast as a galloping horse gradually became known to the world.

Then he surrendered to the Great Sui Dynasty, and his military achievements continued to rise, becoming a famous general of a generation.

If you talk about it carefully, Mai Tiebang was still the grandfather of Gao Lishi during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty...Great-grandfather.

Shen Guang is even more legendary and is called... Meat Flying Immortal by the soldiers in the Xiaoguo Army.

Well, someone is given a nickname... a flexible fat man.

In the Xiaoguo army, he once became the best player in the world by playing horses, and defeated countless powerful horses.

In addition, he has a lot of light skills...

According to historical records, he once climbed up to a flagpole more than ten feet in the temple, tied the rope, and went straight down the air, supported the ground with his palms, and took more than ten steps back without any injury!

Then, in a siege of Xiaoguo Army, he led the way and rushed up the city wall first. He was pushed down by the enemy. He stepped on the city wall and leaped up again with the help of the city wall, and broke the city in one fell swoop.

Therefore, Yang Guang valued it and was promoted to Chaosan Doctor.

These two people, now one of them is the Chaosan doctor in the Xiaoguo army, and the other is the general leader of thousands of soldiers outside the Xianfu Palace. After hearing the news that Yang Guang was hanged in Jiangdu, they wanted to... ambush Sima Dekan and avenge Yang Guang!

Therefore, he secretly trusted the other party and prepared to find an opportunity. Shen Guang opened the palace gate of Xianfu Palace. Mai Mengcai led his army to rush in and killed Sima Dekan.

only……

There are too many 25 boys in the Xiaoguo army.

After Chen Guang's confidant got the news, he ran to Ling Qian's mansion that night and began to report the news.
To be continued...
