Walking into Wang Gong Yard, he finally saw what it meant to have a sentry post every five steps and a sentry post every ten steps.
Inside the factory, guards could be seen everywhere. Their eyes were fixed on the surroundings, not letting go of any suspicious place.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
At this moment, a eunuch walked over and looked at them with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Eunuch Wang."
Zhu Zhanji smiled and took out his waist token.
"The two of us brothers have come under the emperor's orders to deal with some important matters.”
Seeing the token in Zhu Zhanji's hand, Eunuch Wang hurriedly bowed.
"Since it's the emperor's order, this old servant will naturally cooperate.”
Then, he raised his head slightly to look at Zhu Zhan Xin, as if he was thinking about how to address him.
"He is my fifth brother."
Zhu Zhanji also noticed his awkwardness and introduced him.
"Forgive this old servant for being blind. I hope Your Highness can forgive me.”
Eunuch Wang hurriedly spoke. Although he didn't know Zhu Zhanshi, his status was obvious.
Moreover, the Emperor would actually let any of the Imperial Grandsons other than Zhu Zhanji come here. This couldn't help but make him think too much.
However, he only dared to think about it. After all, he was just a slave.
"Right, Eunuch Wang, tell those craftsmen to come over.”
"Yes."
Eunuch Wang nodded.
"Your Highness, please move to the side room. This old servant will inform them.”
Eunuch Wang led the way.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, then pulled Zhu Zhanji along and followed.
"Eunuch Wang is the eunuch in charge of the factory here.”
Zhu Zhanji was still sizing up the layout of the place. Zhu Zhanji turned around and introduced Eunuch Wang to him.
He didn't care about that.
He only wanted to finish his business quickly and then go back to cultivate that cultivation technique.
However, the layout of the Wang Gong Factory piqued his interest.
It was different from what he had imagined. Although the factory was tightly guarded, ventilation was everywhere. Clearly, someone had already realized the safety issues in this area.
Soon, Eunuch Wang brought them to a private dining room.
Taking advantage of the time, Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth to introduce the situation of Wang Gong Factory to him.
With Zhu Zhanji's narration, he roughly understood the situation in Wang Gongchang.
Wang Gong Factory was divided into several areas. The first was the material area, which stored the materials mined from all over the country.
It was mainly sulfur and saltpeter. Of course, the two were stored separately.
The next area was the grinding area.
The workers would manually grind the sulfur and saltpeter into powder and send them to the next area.
As for the charcoal, it would be placed in another place for a few days because they were worried about the danger. It would only be sent here after it was checked.
After that, it was the most important research area. This was also the core area.
Only craftsmen worked here. They would mix the ground materials according to a certain ratio.
Finally, they were all placed in the storeroom and guarded by the imperial guards.
In short, the division of labor here was very clear, ensuring the orderly production of gunpowder.
After understanding the situation here, Eunuch Wang also brought the craftsmen over.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
Dozens of blacksmiths bowed to them.
"Your Highness, Fifth Highness, this is Lord He. He is in charge of the gunpowder configuration.”
Eunuch Wang pointed at one of them and said.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, then took out the formula from his pocket and handed it over.
"This?"
Lord He looked at the formula in his hand and looked at him in surprise.
"This is a new gunpowder formula. How long will it take to develop it?”
Hearing this, the craftsmen were stunned for a moment before looking at the formula in Lord He's hand in shock.
New gunpowder formula?
"Your Highness, six hours."
Craftsman He took a deep breath. Although he didn't know what the new gunpowder was, he understood the seriousness of the matter.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, then waved his hand to let them do it first.
After that, the craftsmen left.
"Fifth Brother, do you want to go out and take a look?”
Zhu Zhanji was worried that they wouldn't understand.
Zhu Zhanxin rolled his eyes. What was there to see? The new formula just had a few more processes than the original.
Seeing him like this, Zhu Zhanji shook his head and didn't say anything else.
In Wang Gong Factory, all kinds of materials and tools were quite complete. Artisan He and the others discussed the formula for a moment before starting.
In less than six hours, they handed over a can of black gunpowder.
"Fifth brother?"
Zhu Zhanji glanced at Zhu Zhanxin.
He sighed and walked forward. He reached out and took out some black gunpowder. After confirming that it was in the form of granules, he looked at the craftsmen.
"Are all the ingredients prepared according to the formula?”
"Replying to Fifth Young Master, it was completely prepared according to the formula.”
Artisan He quickly replied.
He nodded at Zhu Zhanji, indicating that there was no problem with the gunpowder.
Then, Zhu Zhanji asked them to test the power of the new gunpowder.
In the testing field.
In order to test the power of this new type of gunpowder, the craftsmen even took out the previous gunpowder for a more obvious observation.
Both of them were trying to explode a wooden puppet.
In the end, the experiment found that the new type of gunpowder could destroy the wooden puppets with less than a quarter of the original gunpowder.
This meant that the power of the new gunpowder was four times that of the original gunpowder!
What a terrifying improvement!
Zhu Zhanji looked at the explosion and turned to look at Zhu Zhanyi, his eyes full of shock.
Even though he had seen the evaluation of this new gunpowder before.
However, that was only an evaluation on paper after all. There was no shock from seeing it with his own eyes.
He could already imagine what it would be like if the entire god-grade battalion was equipped with such gunpowder.
"Your Highness, may I ask which expert wrote this formula?”
Craftsman He looked at him excitedly.
As a craftsman, he was eager to meet that expert. He wanted to ask the principle behind this formula. It could actually increase the power by several times!
Zhu Zhanji looked at him strangely.
"Cough cough, this expert is right in front of you.”
As he spoke, he pushed Zhu Zhan Xin forward.
Everyone was surprised, and then they looked at Zhu Zhanji suspiciously.
His gaze seemed to be saying," Your Highness, stop joking."
In any case, they did not believe that this formula could be made by Zhu Zhanshi.
Only Eunuch Wang's eyes flashed. He seemed to know something.
"Whether you believe it or not, this formula was written by my fifth brother.”
Zhu Zhanji smiled.
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
"May I ask, why is Fifth Prince's formula so powerful?”
Immediately, everyone looked at him. The other craftsmen also wanted to know the principle behind it.
Zhu Zhan Xin sighed to himself.
What the hell? The gunpowder was ready, there were no problems with the experiment, and the process was clear.
Why are there so many things?
Should he go back to cultivating?
Thinking of this, he looked at Artisan He.
"Artisan He, this formula is written in black and white. If you can't understand it, there's nothing I can do.”
He did not have the time to talk to them.
As soon as he said this, Craftsman He's face instantly turned red.
Zhu Zhanxin's meaning was very clear. I've written everything for you, but you can't even understand this. What kind of trash are you?
