Chapter 1394 Preparation

That night, Willy Tatul and the old housekeeper Al had dinner at Lou Quan's house before returning to the inn.

At this time, Willy Tatul's family also came to ask about the visit to Lou Quan.

"Don't worry, our Tatul family will not be defeated!"

"On the contrary, we can use soap in the future to make the name of the Tatul family stand out again in the Kushan Empire!"

After Willy Tatul told his family about the results of today's visit to Lou Quan, he expressed confidence.

His family members were also full of hope when they heard this.

As nobles of the Kushan Empire, they certainly don't want to live in Wei for the rest of their lives.

If there is a chance, they will definitely return to the Kushan Empire to regain everything that belongs to them.

Now soap is Willy Tatul's first-hand preparation to return to the Kushan Empire again.

Youzhou.

After Liu Yan retired and returned to his hometown, Cao Cao arranged Chang Lin to serve as the governor of Youzhou.

After Chang Lin took office, he did not make major adjustments to the officialdom of Youzhou.

However, the several Youzhou nobles who first mentioned to Liu Yan that they wanted to start a new soap workshop were arranged by Chang Lin to work in leisurely positions for retirement.

Because of the trade with the Xianbei, and most of the children of the Xianbei tribal leaders studied in Youzhou, Chang Lin did not worry too much about the relationship between Xianbei and Youzhou after becoming the governor of Youzhou.

After leaving Liu Yan, the entire Youzhou did not undergo any major changes.

After dealing with the construction of the soap workshop and steam engine workshop in Liangzhou, Cao Jie finally came to Youzhou for the last stop.

Like Ma Chao, Chang Lin went out of the city to warmly welcome Cao Jie when he arrived in Youzhou.

The nobles in Youzhou were much more enthusiastic about Cao Jie than Chang Lin.

Now the nobles in Wei have reached a consensus that wherever Cao Jie appears, the nobles there will make a fortune.

Whether it is a soap workshop or a steam engine workshop, the benefits that can be brought to the nobles are huge.

In the face of the warm hospitality of the Youzhou nobles, Cao Jie did not soften his heart in the end.

According to Bai Feng's previous decision to punish the Youzhou gentry, Cao Jie's conditions for the Youzhou gentry to invest in the soap workshop and steam engine workshop were relatively harsh.

First of all, the existing soap workshops in Youzhou must belong to the Hanzhong soap workshop, and this part is not included in the proportion of the investment.

In addition, the Youzhou gentry did not receive dividends in the first half of the year for investing in the steam engine workshop.

Faced with these two conditions, although the Youzhou gentry were dissatisfied, they finally agreed.

This time, the Youzhou gentry did not lead the charge, and Chang Lin remained silent on this matter.

Seeing that the Youzhou gentry finally accepted the conditions of investing in the soap workshop and steam engine workshop, Cao Jie did not embarrass them too much.

From the beginning of the year to now, Cao Jie has been running three states in a row, and she is really a little tired.

Now she is waiting for the affairs of Youzhou to be dealt with, and then she will return to Hanzhong to have a good rest for a while.

The provinces in the south of the Wei Dynasty, such as Guangzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou, are still sparsely populated.

Therefore, neither Bai Feng nor Cao Jie are in a hurry to build soap workshops and steam engine workshops in these states and counties.

At present, the states and counties in the north of Wei are the focus of their development.

After Cao Jie finished the construction of soap workshops and steam engine workshops in Youzhou, all the states and counties in the north of Wei already had soap workshops and steam engine workshops.

Half a month passed in a flash. With the cooperation of the Youzhou gentry, soap workshops and steam engine workshops were successfully built in Youzhou.

The corresponding training of craftsmen has also started simultaneously.

Craftsmen such as Xiao Cai, who had acted as undercover in Youzhou before, also returned to Youzhou again. Of course, the Youzhou gentry did not know their identities.

There was also Shopkeeper Zhou, who had reached a soap deal with Budugen and Kebi, and this time he was officially responsible for all the soap workshops in Youzhou.

Seeing that the matter in Youzhou had been settled, Cao Jie did not accept Chang Lin's retention and set off directly to return to Hanzhong.

After not seeing Bai Feng for nearly two months, Cao Jie still missed him very much.

On Cao Jie's way back to Hanzhong, Bai Feng used the system lottery again.

Because Hanzhong's R&D center and mines have entered a period of good development.

So Bai Feng is also ready to do a big job.

After a ten-shot draw, the system prompt sounded in Bai Feng's ears.

[Ding! Congratulations on getting: Cast iron gunpowder paper × 1! ]

[Ding! Congratulations on getting: Smokeless gunpowder formula × 1! ]

[Ding! Congratulations on getting: Generator blueprint × 1! ]

After the system upgrade sound ended, Bai Feng was already very happy.

"Hahaha, this time I'm really lucky!"

Originally, Bai Feng was a little worried that after the Yamatai treasure ship went to sea, there would be problems because it was not good at naval warfare.

Now with the manufacturing drawings of cast iron cannons and the manufacturing formula of smokeless gunpowder, this problem was solved at once.

Generators are also very important to Bai Feng.

Although Bai Feng's current ability cannot make Dawei enter the electrical age.

But the appearance of generators opened the prelude to the electrical age.

Excited Bai Feng quickly exchanged the three blueprints. The remaining blueprints and formulas were not as useful to Bai Feng as these three blueprints and formulas.

With the blueprints and formulas, Bai Feng first came to the R&D center.

In the R&D center, craftsmen such as Geng Zhuzhu and Li Tiedan are making new steam trains.

When Ma Jun and Pu Yuan left Hanzhong, they brought a group of craftsmen back to Yecheng.

Now Gengzhuzi is training a new batch of craftsmen to familiarize them with various operations on the steam train production line.

After seeing Bai Feng, Geng Zhuzhu stepped forward to report on the construction progress of the steam train.

Before Geng Zhuzhu could speak, Bai Feng smiled at him and said:

"Zhuzi, come and take a look at these two drawings!"

After finishing speaking, Bai Feng handed the manufacturing drawings of the cast iron cannon and the generator to Geng Zhuzhu.

After taking the drawing, Geng Zhuzhu looked at it carefully.

The drawings of the cast iron cannon were relatively uncomplicated. After seeing them, Cuo Zhuzhu was confident that they could be produced in a short time.

Of course, at this time, Peng Zhuzhu still didn't know the power of the cast iron artillery.

The drawings of the generator aroused great interest in Zhuzhu.

"Hanzhong Hou, what is the function of this machine called a generator?"

"Isn't it a machine that can create thunder and lightning?!"

Bai Feng couldn't help laughing after hearing Geng Zhuzi's question.

"Hahaha, this generator is said to be able to create lightning, but it's not impossible!"
