As the Xiqu delegation left, Yun Zheng also began to prepare for a new round of war.
But before starting a new round of war, Yun Zheng still has to meet someone.
Not all!
At this time, the ice and snow in Shuobei should have begun to melt.
Aren’t they supposed to be on their way to the imperial city?
He wished they were faster.
After meeting Budu and the others, it was time for him to set off for Jiaolu.
For this purpose, Yun Zheng also sent people to Beihuan to see if Bu Du and the others had already set off.
While waiting for the Beihuan delegation, Yun Zheng and Zhang Xu also set up all the facilities of the Dagan Institute of Technology and transferred firearms experts back from Shuobei.
Yun Zheng handed over most of the government affairs to Tang Shu and Tuo Huan, and he was only responsible for reviewing them.
...
...
Most of the time, Yun Zheng and Zhang Xu spent time in the Ministry of Industry's temporary technical research institute. Yun Zheng was responsible for theoretical guidance, while Zhang Xu was responsible for presenting Yun Zheng's theories in the simplest way.
Wu Qingyang was also transferred to the Institute of Technology, where he was mainly responsible for teaching these craftsmen cultural knowledge.
In addition, he can also learn something by himself.
In the Institute of Technology, Yun Zheng also proposed concepts such as meters and centimeters, and made corresponding rulers.
"The parts of the waterwheel and windmill can be made of iron and copper..."
In the Technical Research Institute, Yun Zheng and a group of craftsmen determined the improvement plan for the windmill and waterwheel, and then gave further instructions.
Steam engines and electricity were things that were far off in the future; he couldn't count on them for the time being.
All we can count on are windmills and watermills.
These are things that speed up production efficiency, and as long as they are done well, they can be of great use.
Just as Yun Zheng was explaining the details to them, the guards outside came in quickly: "Your Highness, Madam Zi has something urgent to discuss with you, and she is waiting outside the door!"
Ye Zi?
Yun Zheng was stunned, and then looked at the guard: "Why don't you just bring her in? Why are you blocking her outside?"
"It's not that I don't allow Madam Zi to come in, it's Madam Zi who doesn't want to come in." The guard hurriedly explained: "Madam Zi said that since His Highness has set the rule that people other than those from the Institute of Technology cannot enter, she can't break it."
"All right!"
Yun Zheng smiled helplessly and walked out quickly.
Soon, Yun Zheng came outside and saw Ye Zi standing at the door waiting.
Before Yun Zheng could speak, Ye Zi came forward with a letter. "There was urgent news from the Northwest Protectorate, and it was sent back in an expedited manner of 800 miles. I was afraid it was urgent military information, so I sent it directly..."
Urgent news?
What happened again?
Yun Zheng was secretly puzzled and did not bother to say anything more to Ye Zi. He quickly opened the letter.
However, when he saw the contents of the letter, Yun Zheng's eyes suddenly widened.
“Wahahaha…”
The next moment, Yun Zheng suddenly picked up Ye Zi, spun around and laughed loudly.
Hearing Yun Zheng's loud laughter, Zhang Xu and the others all ran out.
As soon as they came out, they saw Yun Zheng holding Ye Zi and spinning around like a fool, extremely excited.
"Stop turning, I'm almost dizzy..."
Ye Zi's pretty face turned red and she gently punched Yun Zheng's chest.
Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng stopped holding Ye Zi and kissed her fiercely on the lips as if no one was around.
"Stop it, there are so many people watching us!"
Ye Zi's face turned even redder and she pinched him lightly.
What a guy!
Don't even consider what the occasion is.
Not ashamed at all!
"This king is happy! Haha..."
Yun Zheng was so excited that he almost jumped up and did a few somersaults.
"What good news is it that makes you so excited?"
Ye Zi was puzzled.
After Yun Zheng returned to the imperial city, he had to attend court from time to time and discuss matters with ministers frequently. He became much more stable than when he was in Shuobei, and not as reckless as before.
I don’t know what kind of good news it is that makes Yun Zheng so happy.
"Yes, Your Highness, whatever good news it is, let us be happy too!"
Zhang Xu also came forward, his face full of curiosity.
"Just take a look! Just see for yourself."
Yun Zheng handed the letter to Zhang Xu and whispered in Ye Zi's ear.
Soon, Ye Zi and Zhang Xu both showed expressions of ecstasy on their faces.
"Your Highness, this... this..."
Zhang Xu was so excited that he could hardly speak clearly, and his hand holding the letter was shaking.
Saltpeter mine!
The people from the Northwest Protectorate discovered the saltpeter mine they had been dreaming of in the territory of Xiguifang!
However, Dugu Ce is not completely sure whether it is a large saltpeter mine, and is ordering people to conduct further exploration.
In addition, Dugu Ce also asked Yun Zheng to send some relevant personnel to assist in the investigation.
Apart from Yun Zheng, no one understands the significance of a large saltpeter mine better than Zhang Xu.
As long as they had saltpeter mines, gunpowder would no longer be a limiting factor for them.
From now on, the guys in the firearms workshop can make as many firearms as they want!
Moreover, gunpowder can be used in building new capitals and digging canals!
"Don't get excited yet!"
Yun Zheng stopped Zhang Xu from getting excited, "This still needs further investigation! Moreover, even if we find out, we still need to purify it further. We can't be happy too soon. Yes, we can't be happy too soon..."
Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Ye Zi couldn't help but giggle.
This guy told Zhang Xu not to get excited?
He didn't notice how excited he was just now!
However, this is indeed something to be excited about!
When thinking about Yun Zheng and the others living on that little bit of money, Ye Zi's face once again showed a bright smile.
They were all the people who followed Yun Zheng step by step.
Now that they see everything is going in a good direction, how can they not be happy.
"Yes, don't get excited yet!"
Zhang Xu took a few deep breaths and grinned again, "If this is true, I can show off my power on the battlefield in the future!"
Suddenly, Zhang Xu began to imagine himself standing in front of a cannon and firing wherever he pointed.
As he thought about it, the smile on Zhang Xu's face became even brighter, and the corners of his mouth almost reached the back of his head.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy! I have to go back home and write an urgent letter to Dugu Ce."
Yun Zheng suppressed his excitement, gave them an order, and was about to take Ye Zi away.
"Your Highness, wait!"
Zhang Xu called Yun Zheng and quickly returned the letter to Yun Zheng.
And you still say he is unhappy?
I forgot to take this letter back.
“Yes, yes.”
Yun Zheng took the letter and told Zhang Xu: "Keep this a secret!"
"good!"
Zhang Xu nodded heavily.
After saying hello to them, Yun Zheng followed Ye Zi away.
Sitting on the horse, Yun Zheng, in a good mood, hugged Ye Zi and kissed her fiercely.
"Stop kissing me."
Ye Zi gently pushed Yun Zheng away, then leaned into his arms again, whispering with seductive eyes: "If you keep kissing me, I'll be aroused by you..."
Facing Ye Zi's charming gaze, Yun Zheng's heart suddenly howled like a wolf.
All he wanted now was to go back home quickly and hug his beloved Zi'er and love her dearly!
The next moment, Yun Zheng held Ye Zi tightly in his arms, wishing he could rub her into his bones...
