Chapter 381 The Mountain God is Angry

Yan Mu ran to the southwest, and Lord Liang of course had to report to the emperor. When the emperor received the notes from Yan Mu and Lord Liang, what can be said, in fact, he had expected this situation, otherwise, why would he let Lord Liang He stared at Yan Mu, but to be honest, the emperor was quite satisfied with being able to endure it for such a long time. At least this boy still had some sense of responsibility. He went to the southwest and did a lot of things, such as rectifying the southwest army, suppressing local wealthy families, Liang Only adults can do this without too much hindrance.

Looking at Yan Mu's request in the document, the emperor hesitated for a long time, and then called Yan Xiangxi. Regarding Gu Zhao's gunpowder, except for those who were in the workshop at the time, only the most distinguished father and daughter knew. , because it was closely related, it was kept secret.

The original research on gunpowder was to deal with the southwest and foreign invasion, but it turned out that it was useless. Instead, gunpowder was now used to build roads and open mountains. It must be said that the use of this made the emperor speechless.

Yan Xiangxi quite agrees. Gunpowder was developed for the purpose of utilization: "Father, many poor places are not without good things, but they are very closed to the outside world due to the terrain. I remember when Lord Gu was trying to develop Yaochang Mansion, The first thing I want to do is to build roads. Otherwise, no matter how good the Yaochang Mansion is, it will be difficult to transport it. Therefore, I think roads for external communication are very important. However, it is very difficult to build roads in many places. Gunpowder is very important in this regard. It can reduce a lot of difficulties."

"But what if the gunpowder formula is leaked and is mastered by foreigners?"

Yan Xiangxi tilted his head and said, "I remember that Gu Zhao said when he took out this thing that it was just a prototype. It can be used in the future. On this basis, we can create better things. Gu Zhao once said that we should improve the status of craftsmen, and I think it is a good idea." After Gu Zhao

's many operations, Yan Xiangxi has realized the role of craftsmen in it, but the role of craftsmen is Their status was too low and did not match their contribution to the court. Those second-generation ancestors made no contribution to the court, but they enjoyed such a high status. While the craftsmen improved their tools and benefited the Zhou Dynasty, many people were It is difficult to shed the identity of a craftsman. Over time, will it have no impact on the enthusiasm of the craftsman?

Craftsmen, like other professions, also need a long period of study to improve. Isn't this the purpose of the teaching materials sent by Gu Zhao? Yan Xiangxi thought that Gu Zhao was very determined to improve the status of craftsmen.

The emperor sighed. Compared to his daughter, his thoughts were a bit conservative, but he had no intention of interfering with his daughter. After all, the court would be handed over to his daughter in the future. How could his daughter be without him when she became the emperor? If you don't have your own opinion, it will be easy for the courtiers to make excuses.

The emperor thought of a compromise: "How about letting Mu'er try the effect first, but keep people away while doing it, and the existence of the explosive must still be kept secret. By the way, let him be careful as well, that thing is too much Dangerous."

The emperor still remembers the astonishing power of the gunpowder explosion. He was very surprised at the time. With this magical weapon, how could the Great Zhou be afraid of foreign enemies?
