Chapter 1798 It's time for the craftsman workshop to move

The loud noise shocked Cao Shu and others to their ears.

Rubbing his ears, Cao Shu shook his head and muttered: "I'm addicted to firing fire, I've been letting go of several of them at this time."

Deng Zhan also felt his ears buzzing, but he didn't rub them, let alone say nothing.

After the loud noise, the craftsman's manager ran out of it.

When he came to Cao Shu, he bent his waist and said nervously: "I don't know that the young master has arrived. I asked them to try another one just now. I was disturbing the young master. Please don't blame me."

"It seems to be doing well when you listen to the sound." Cao Shuo asked the manager: "What's going on?"

"The kind that the young master said does not require a fuse has not been created yet." The manager said: "What I tried just now needs to ignite the fuse to detonate."

"The army will go on a war soon." Cao Shuo said: "I don't have time to wait for you to create those who do not need fuses. Let me first take you to see those who need fuses."

The manager responded and led Cao Shuo into the craftsman's workshop.

When Cao Shu arrived, a guard had already greeted the craftsmen.

If the guards had not informed him, the craftsmen who didn't know that Cao Shu had arrived might have put a few more.

Entering the craftsman's courtyard, Cao Shuo saw a group of craftsmen standing in front of several wooden boxes.

Seeing that he was coming, the craftsmen bowed and bowed.

"No need to be polite." Cao Shu raised his hand and asked the manager: "What kind of bomb was he just put?"

The manager replied: "I just tried these in the box."

When he arrived in front of the box, Cao Shu told the manager: "Give me one to show me."

The manager agreed and took out a black ball from the box.

The shape of the ball is very similar to the most primitive bomb that Cao Shu once learned from books.

The black dusty surface is accompanied by a round shape, which looks like an extra-large sheep dung ball.

There is a fuse hanging at one end of the "Sheep Death Ball", which looks very funny.

"It's done well." He handed the bomb back to the manager, Cao Shu said, "You were so happy just now. It's time to put a few for me to see."

"What are you still standing there?" The manager told the craftsmen: "Put a few of them quickly for the young master to see."

One of the craftsmen picked up a bomb and ran to the distance.

"Why did you run so far?" Seeing him running twenty or thirty steps, Cao Shu asked, "Is it so powerful?"

"It's still a bit unsafe to be so far away." The manager said: "We created these things according to the method taught by the young master. We almost hurt people when we tried it for the first time."

"Almost hurt someone?" Cao Shuo asked quickly, "What's going on?"

"Standing too close." The manager replied: "Fortunately there is a wall next to it, otherwise there would be some casualties."

"That's luck." Hearing that there were no casualties, Cao Shuo breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that he didn't hurt anyone."

The craftsman who ran away with the bomb put it on the ground, then picked up a torch and carefully lit the fuse.

The fuse sparked, and the craftsman holding the torch turned around and ran away.

He ran to Cao Shu and others, and the bomb exploded with a "boom".

The bomb raised a piece of soil on the ground, which showed that it was quite powerful.

Cao Shu nodded with satisfaction and said to the manager: "You have done a good job. Although it is still far from what I want, this kind of bomb can be sent to the battlefield, which scared the enemy."

"I was so frightened that I didn't satisfy the young master." The manager responded.

"When you can create the kind of bombs I want, you will not be satisfied with just making them." Cao Shuo said: "I have told you that gunpowder has many uses. If used properly, it can even determine how big our territory will be!"

"I have recorded everything the young master said." The manager responded.

Cao Shuo sent someone to put a bomb, but he was still very satisfied with the effect.

He was explaining to the manager about the development of the bomb, and Zhu Ao led Miheng here.

When he arrived beside Cao Shu, Mi Heng bowed and asked, "What are the instructions for the young master to come over?"

"Do you think the craftsman workshop is too noisy in this place?" Cao Shu asked at Mi Heng.

"Since the young master arranged for the craft workshop to develop gunpowder, it has indeed been much more noisy here than before." Mi Heng replied.

"The people know that you are developing new weapons." Cao Shuo said: "They did not come here to make trouble with you, but you also have to think about how to avoid causing trouble to the people."

"Unless the young master ordered the craftsman's workshop to be moved outside the city." Mi Heng said: "As long as you are still in the city, it will definitely cause trouble for the people."

"I just remind you, you have negotiated with me." Cao Shuo smiled and patted his shoulder: "Tell me, where do you think there is a suitable place outside the city?"

"Bagong Mountain is good." Mi Heng said: "If you can settle the craftsman workshop there..."

"Stay there and stay away from the army." Cao Shuo said: "Once someone steals new weapons, or someone maliciously destroys them, can you and the craftsmen resist?"

When Cao Shu was stunned by the question, Mi Heng didn't know how to respond.

"I plan to send you to Penglai." Cao Shuo said: "Penglai is located overseas, far away from the inland, and there are also East China Sea naval patrols around. Even if there are thieves who attempt to be unfavorable to the craftsman workshop, they will not have any chance to attack."

Looking at the craftsmen, Cao Shu asked, "What do you think?"

"I have never seen the sea yet," said the manager: "There is nothing else. I just don't know if we can live a habit after going to Penglai."

"The scenery in Penglai is not bad," Cao Shuo said: "You go there and have a chance to come back every year. For everyone who goes there, I will have someone to settle the home in Penglai in advance. You can move all the old and young people there. In addition, I will also send you two beautiful ladies as concubines."

Cao Shu not only let people settle their family business for them, but also allowed them to take away their families. The managers and craftsmen were a little moved.

What made them even more upset was that they would even send two beautiful ladies as concubines each.

You should know that since women have participated more and more under Cao Shuo's rule, many women have higher requirements for men.

Although there are still more women and fewer men now, women still want to marry a man who can give them a safer life.

Because women are more independent, it was not easy for craftsmen to marry another concubine in the past.

Unexpectedly, Cao Shu promised two of them each as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was also a stunning beauty.

"Thank you, young master!" The manager took the lead in thanking Cao Shuo.

The craftsmen bowed and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Mr.!"

"You are the best thanks to me for your hard work in developing new weapons." Cao Shu said: "No need to say more about the others. Miheng will arrange for you to go to Penglai in a few days."
