Chapter 1280 Making Explosives
After Bai Feng sealed Wei Boyang's cave in Changbai Mountain with an illusion, the three of them went down the mountain and returned to Hanzhong that afternoon.
Eight days later, Bai Feng brought Wei Boyang and his landowner Zhen Cheng to Hanzhong City.
"Wow!"
Zhen Cheng, who had been living in the mountains, couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the prosperous Hanzhong City.
"Is this Hanzhong City?"
"So many people, and so many shops!"
Everything in front of him was so new to Zhen Cheng that he felt his eyes were almost not enough.
Wei Boyang, who returned to the town again, couldn't help but sigh to Bai Feng after seeing the development of Hanzhong:
"Compared with when I came to Hanzhong 20 years ago, the whole Hanzhong has changed dramatically."
Twenty years ago, Hanzhong was still devastated by war, and the people were living in dire straits.
What Wei Boyang saw now were shops lined up one after another, pedestrians shoulder to shoulder, and houses in large areas.
The damage caused by the war in the past to Hanzhong has long been healed, and Hanzhong is now more prosperous.
After hearing this, Bai Feng smiled at Wei Boyang:
"Mr. Wei has been practicing in the mountains and refining elixirs. When you have time, you must take Zhen Cheng to experience the current development of Hanzhong."
Zhen Cheng, who was standing by, was also very happy after hearing this.
Since leaving Changbai Mountain, Zhen Cheng followed Bai Feng and Wei Boyang all the way to Hanzhong. The towns along the way became more and more prosperous, and Hanzhong was the most prosperous.
Zhen Cheng, who was still young, was full of yearning for his future life in Hanzhong.
Then Bai Feng took Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng to the Hanzhong Marquis' Mansion first.
When Cao Jie saw Bai Feng bringing back an old man with a fairy-like appearance and a young man, he knew that Bai Feng really invited Wei Boyang out of the mountain this time when he went to Changbai Mountain in Liaodong.
"This is Mr. Wei Boyang, right? Welcome, welcome!"
Cao Jie smiled at Wei Boyang, and then ordered the servants to prepare tea and snacks.
After Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng greeted Cao Ji, they had some snacks and tea, and then went to the study with Bai Feng.
"Mr. Wei, please look, this is the formula for making explosives."
In the study, Bai Feng handed a formula for making explosives to Wei Boyang.
Zhen Cheng also came forward and looked at how to make explosives with great power with Wei Boyang.
Then Bai Feng explained the formula for making explosives to Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng.
After listening to Bai Feng's explanation, Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng had a general understanding of how to make explosives.
"The process of making explosives is really similar to refining elixirs!"
After Wei Boyang looked at the formula for explosives, he finally understood why Bai Feng summoned alchemists to make explosives for him.
"Mr. Wei and Zhen Cheng should have a good rest today. Tomorrow I will take you to the newly built explosives manufacturing workshop."
"There are five alchemists in the workshop, and they have already started to manufacture the core raw materials."
"In the days to come, Mr. Wei and Zhen Cheng will stay in the workshop, and all the supplies will be prepared for everyone."
Then Bai Feng said to Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng.
That night, Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng, the master and apprentice, rested in the Hanzhong Marquis Mansion.
Unlike Wei Boyang, Zhen Cheng was still very excited and didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night.
Whether it was the prosperous city, the various delicacies, or the new clothes, the young Zhen Cheng wanted to know more, taste more, and touch more.
The next morning, after breakfast, Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng took a carriage with Bai Feng and came to the explosives manufacturing workshop.
In the workshop, alchemists such as Zhang Daoyi and Fang Yuan had already started to manufacture explosives.
After Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng arrived, Zhang Daoyi and other alchemists were still immersed in making explosives.
Bai Feng originally wanted to call everyone over and introduce Wei Boyang to them.
However, Wei Boyang waved his hand to signal Bai Feng not to disturb them, and he began to carefully observe the process of Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others making explosives.
After a while, Wei Boyang returned to Bai Feng and said to him:
"These alchemists who make explosives for Hanzhong Hou are quite good."
After seeing the techniques of Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others, Wei Boyang recognized their alchemy skills.
At least, their alchemy skills are comparable to Zhen Cheng's.
Zhen Cheng looked at the various glass instruments used by Zhang Daoyi and others with curiosity.
In order to reduce the danger of making explosives, Bai Feng made a batch of glassware for the workshop separately.
In this way, Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others can more clearly observe the changes and reactions of the raw materials during the experiment, reducing the possibility of injury.
Bai Feng then clapped his hands, attracting the attention of Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others.
"Everyone take a break first, I want to introduce you to a master of alchemy and his disciples."
After Bai Feng finished speaking, Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others stopped what they were doing and looked at Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng.
"This is the master of alchemy, Wei Ao Wei Boyang."
"This is Mr. Wei's disciple, Zhen Cheng."
After Bai Feng briefly introduced the identities of Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng, he saw that Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others were all excited.
"It's really Mr. Wei!"
"Hello, Mr. Wei!"
"Mr. Wei has a fairy-like appearance, has he taken the elixir?"
Then Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and others said in amazement.
Wei Boyang's reputation may not be well-known among the people. Except for the people at the foot of Changbai Mountain, most people in other states and counties of Wei have never heard of the legend about Wei Boyang.
But in the circle of alchemists, Wei Boyang's name is absolutely well-known!
Wei Boyang smiled and greeted Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and other alchemists one by one, and remembered everyone's name in his heart, and praised their alchemy level.
In comparison, Wei Boyang's disciple Zhen Cheng seemed much more shy.
Bai Feng looked at Wei Boyang who was chatting and laughing with Zhang Daoyi, Fang Yuan and other alchemists, and felt that there should be no problem in handing over the explosives workshop to Wei Boyang for management.
After Wei Boyang and Zhen Cheng became familiar with the alchemists in the explosives manufacturing workshop, Bai Feng told them about Wei Boyang's appointment:
"From today on, Mr. Wei will be responsible for managing the entire explosives manufacturing workshop. Zhang Daoyi and Fang Yuan will assist Mr. Wei in his work, and everyone should also cooperate with Mr. Wei."
"Strive to safely manufacture the explosives as soon as possible!"
