When several forces defected to Wei and integrated into its rule, Chu Zhenglin also sent people from Japan to bring the first batch of glass beads to the islands of Japan.
When the forces on the Shengwu Continent were fighting for gold, silver and other valuables, someone suddenly discovered that the people of Japan actually had treasures like glass. Although the quality was not very pure, as long as it was glass, it was very valuable. How could they not rob the people of Japan?
These glass beads were made from the glass produced when Chu Fan tried his hand for the first time. There is a big difference between them and colored glaze. This time, Chu Fan asked Chu Zhenglin to arrange for the glass beads to be brought to Japan are these defective products. However, the people from these forces were still very excited when they saw such glass beads. After all, in their eyes, even if these colored glazes are not pure, as long as they are colored glazes, they are treasures that can be sold at a high price.
If the glass beads were purer, these forces might have thought it was a conspiracy and hesitated to plunder them. After all, if such a valuable piece of glass were brought out of an ordinary household, and in such large quantities, it would most likely be bait set up by a powerful force. However, with glass beads of this quality, they felt more at ease, believing this was a genuine opportunity.
So the people of Japan suffered for a while, and countless warriors flocked into Japan to search and rob the homes of the Japanese people. However, when these warriors brought back the colored glass they had looted with great effort in Wei State to the Shengwu Continent, they found that these colored glass were just ordinary glass beads and were not worth much money at all.
It's just a pity for the people of Japan. When Chu Fan arranged to spread the news of gold mines and silver mountains, the forces of various countries on the Shengwu Continent plundered Japan on a large scale. Originally, these forces on the Shengwu Continent could not obtain much wealth in Japan. Now everyone is more restrained and does not harm the people of Japan.
Everyone was just settling their grievances with other factions on the land of Japan. While the people of Japan were living a somewhat difficult life, they still had a certain living space. Unexpectedly, a large number of glass beads appeared on the land of Japan, seemingly as if they had fallen from the sky. This plunged the people of Japan, who were just about to enter a peaceful life, into dire straits again.
In order to fight for what they regarded as "glass treasures", these warriors from the Shengwu Continent searched everywhere on the island of Wakoku, and even attacked the civilians, causing many innocent people to be displaced and their families to be destroyed.
However, these have nothing to do with Chu Fan and others. Chu Fan just let the Wei warriors "accidentally" drop some defective glass beads on the land of Japan. The Wei Kingdom has never encouraged anyone to fight for these glass beads.
At this time, Chu Fan was enjoying family happiness with his women in the palace, and he had no sympathy for what was happening to Japan.
The people of Japan finally could not withstand the invasion of various forces in the Shengwu Continent. Some people of Japan directly chose to accept their fate. As long as they obeyed these forces, they would be able to gain some living space.
However, the force that had always been supported by the State of Wei was unwilling to give up their last hope. They believed that if Japan was destined to be occupied by other countries, they would rather be occupied by Japan. After all, the kindness shown by the State of Wei was not the indifference and ruthlessness of other countries.
Moreover, as an organization that has long resisted the invasion of other forces on the Shengwu Continent, they were founded from the beginning with the support of the Wei State. Their organization already owed the Wei State countless money, and whether to repay the debt or to repay the Wei State's kindness, they decided that if the Wa Kingdom was destined to be occupied by other countries, they hoped that it would be the Wei State that occupied the Wa Kingdom.
Yamaguchi Taro sent people directly to Wei to ask for help, hoping that Wei could become the suzerain of Wa, and that Wa was willing to submit to Wei. Of course, it would take some time to get from Wa to Wei, so Chu Fan was still preparing for the wedding of his next bride.
Chu Fan also received this month's sign-in item, the recipe for black powder. However, Chu Fan didn't reveal the recipe yet. Making gunpowder was highly likely to cause an explosion, and the Ministry of Industry was already operating at full capacity. Chu Fan decided to let Wei build a hydroelectric power station before considering making black powder.
After Tang Ji's wedding, Chu Fan would begin preparing for the wedding of his final bride, Wen Xuexuan. Chu Fan had originally planned to begin the war against the Xiongnu and the Gan Kingdom right after his own wedding. Meanwhile, the Wei Kingdom's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament would be held the following month.
All departments of the Wei court were extremely busy, but even under such circumstances, the Ministry of Industry still produced the lampshades and black silk that Chu Fan needed. Chu Fan immediately began to make small power generation equipment in the moat outside Kaifeng City.
In order to use electricity more quickly, Chu Fan asked the Wei court to gather many craftsmen in Kaifeng City. Chu Fan gave the blueprints of the hydroelectric power station's generator to Tang Hongwen of the Ministry of Industry, and asked him to lead the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry to rush to manufacture the generator.
Because the power station was not very large and with the help of warriors and the cooperation of craftsmen in Kaifeng City, the hydroelectric power station was completed in just over ten days.
When the gates were opened to release water, the incandescent lamp connected to the generator lit up immediately, which made Chu Fan very happy. The craftsmen and warriors who came here to help Chu Fan build the hydroelectric power station were very curious when they saw that the incandescent lamp could emit light without oil or chili.
Chu Fan then asked the Ministry of Industry to make some long copper wires so that the electricity from the power station could be transmitted to the palace for his own use.
When the princes and court officials from the Royal Affairs Office learned that Chu Fan had built a hydroelectric power station, they were all very curious about the facility and went to visit the site. They were amazed by this new and novel thing they had never seen before, and at the same time, they wondered how they could persuade His Majesty to assign such a technology to their departments.
After all, this technology is a new technology and may also involve people's livelihood and reputation.
