Chapter 610 I'll Leave This to You

Thinking of this.

Jiang Tian looked at Lao An and asked:

"You should have checked this island. Are there any minerals on it?"

"This... seems not to be."

"Well, I see."

Jiang Tian nodded and looked at the big pool.

This big pool should be the living environment that the fish people rely on. There are many marine products growing in it as food for those fish people.

The ability to build this ecological environment should be related to this empty earth spirit.

"In this case, bury it in the north of the island, next to the 'Sea of ​​Stone'."

After this order, Lao An nodded, and then looked at Jiang Tian without moving.

? ? ?

Jiang Tian was stunned and asked him:

"What's wrong, find someone to get a shovel and work."

"My lord... don't we already have an empty earth spirit? In my opinion, it would be more convenient to let the empty earth spirit shovel this piece open."

There is nothing wrong with Lao An's proposal, it is reasonable.

However, Jiang Tian glanced at the empty earth spirit squatting next to him.

This guy seemed to have moved something just now. If he was called here and something was attached when moving the soil, the water source would be ruined.

"Forget it. This time you dig manually. Don't be lazy."

After this order, Lao An led everyone to dig a pit in the land according to the previous process, pushed down the box holding the empty earth spirit, and buried it.

Jiang Tian looked at the slowly creeping land.

Next, just wait for this thing to grow out, and it won't be too late to study it then.

Then, Jiang Tian looked at the situation on the north side of the island again.

In addition to the large fields, through Lao An and his team's harvest this time, the island has added about 1,600 cubic meters of water resources!

So much water!

Although it is an empty island, the water in the island is not ordinary!

After sighing for a while, Jiang Tian left here and went to the south of the island.

At this time.

The little old man Xu Shou was calling a few men and busying himself here.

After seeing Jiang Tian, ​​the old man greeted him and then introduced him:

"My Lord, we are now grinding sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal into powders to prepare for gunpowder."

Seeing this, Jiang Tian also stepped forward to take a look, and was interested in the powders.

"Is this the legendary black gunpowder? Let me try some!"

Seeing Jiang Tian say this, Xu Shou made way, and the other men also put the freshly ground powder in front of Jiang Tian and brought a ceramic bowl.

Looking at the powders of different colors in front of him, Jiang Tian squatted down, picked up the powders and put them into the bowl.

"One sulfur, two saltpeter, three charcoal..."

Jiang Tian muttered while mixing the three powders in a ratio of 1:2:3, and then stirred them with a wooden stick.

Then, pour the mixed powder on the ground to form a small pile of 5 cm high.

"Black gunpowder, is it ready?"

Jiang Tian stood up and stepped back two steps, and ordered his men to bring a burning wood block and throw it into the small pile of powder.

"Huh!"

A ball of flame rose from the small pile, and a few 'hissing' sounds came out at the same time.

However.

Except for the occasional flash of a sizzling flower, it seemed to be no different from the normal burning of charcoal.

"Hey, what's going on? It doesn't look right..."

Jiang Tian was muttering.

Xu Shou glanced at Jiang Tian and said:

"My lord, actually..."

"My lord, the proportion of your gunpowder seems to be wrong!"

Before Xu Shou finished speaking, his words were interrupted by another voice.

A few people looked up and saw Sun Simiao walking towards them, looking at their side and muttering.

"Old Sun, why did you come out?"

After Jiang Tian asked, Sun Simiao showed a bitter smile on his face.

"I just finished the work at hand, so I came out for a walk. My lord, do you have any other instructions?"

Seeing Sun Simiao like this, Jiang Tian felt a little embarrassed.

During this period, Sun Simiao was almost busy in the clinic.

The old man's dormitory, clinic, and canteen are the three points in a straight line every day.

This forced Sun Simiao, an old man who pays attention to health preservation, to become an assembly line worker.

"It's okay, it's okay, you continue to walk around, and take a good rest these days."

Jiang Tian waved his hand, and then asked:

"By the way, you just said that this ratio is wrong, which means..."

Sun Simiao walked forward, squatted down and looked at the burnt residue, and was about to speak.

However, at this time.

Another voice came from behind the few people.

"All gunpowder is mainly saltpeter and sulfur, supplemented by plant ash. Saltpeter is extremely yin, and sulfur is extremely yang. The two gods of yin and yang meet in a gap that cannot be accommodated."

Jiang Tian turned his head and saw that Song Yingxing was actually walking towards him.

After seeing the pile of gunpowder residue, he squatted beside Sun Simiao, picked up some, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then continued:

"Sulfur is mainly horizontal, and the explosive is 70% nitrate and 30% sulphur, and the ash is the auxiliary."

Hearing this, Sun Simiao and Xu Shou nodded at the same time, while Jiang Tian was confused.

Then, Song Yingxing smiled and explained:

"My lord, the composition of gunpowder used for blasting is 70% nitrate and 30% sulphur, and only a small amount of carbon powder is needed as an auxiliary. Moreover, the wood used for burning charcoal is also a bit particular, and the use of bamboo leaf charcoal is the most violent."

"Huh? Is that so?"

Looking at the other two old men giving thumbs up and talking to each other with smiles on their faces, Jiang Tian felt a little confused.

Could it be that this catchphrase about the ratio of gunpowder is wrong?

Seeing the look in the eyes of these old men, Jiang Tian felt as if he was despised.

Although Jiang Tian didn't know why Song Yingxing suddenly came over, he was too lazy to ask in this situation.

Sure enough, the old men were attracted to each other.

At this time, Jiang Tian found that there was a serious generation gap between him and these old men. He felt that he could not fit into this circle, otherwise his self-esteem would be severely hit.

"Well, you guys should deal with this professional matter."

Jiang Tian waved his hand and stood up.

"I'll leave this to you. You guys can communicate slowly. I'll leave first."

Then.

Let the three old men communicate about professional topics, and Jiang Tian evacuated the south of the island.

While walking, he thought about the harvest on the island today.

Lao An came back this time and gained a lot.

In addition to large amounts of water resources, there are two special fishmen and gunpowder researched by several old men.

Moreover, after a while, a new life will be added to the island.

Yes, it refers to the empty earth spirit.

As for the painter...

Let her chat with Cai Wenji and Li Xiuning first.

Jiang Tianchao looked from a distance and saw that the painter was talking and laughing with the two people at the fishing spot in the east.

Although I don’t know what these two ancient people will talk about, it seems that they get along well.

For now, this is the harvest on the island today.

Now, we just have to wait for news from Huo Qubing and others to see how much harvest we can bring from other areas...
