In the bustling streets of Suicheng, two men were walking through the streets holding horses.
One of them, fair and handsome, looked around: "We are going to stay here today."
"Yeah."
The man with a warm smile on the side pointed to an elegant restaurant in front of him: "I go to that restaurant every time I come here.
The food here is delicious."
These two people were obviously Yao Shu and Qiao Sang, but because they arrived in the bustling city, Qiao Sang changed his appearance to avoid trouble.
The journey of seven or eight days in a row was too much for Yao Shu, so Qiao Sang decided to take a day off.
Time was not that pressing anyway.
After entering the restaurant, Yao Shu looked at the crowd of guests and was speechless.
It was really prosperous and almost all seats were occupied.
She sat down in the corner of the second floor.
The waiter came over with a menu and said, "What would you like to order?"
Yao Shu took it and glanced at it, and was immediately startled: "Dongpo pork elbow, pine nuts, corn and Beijing sauce, shredded pork, even shredded sweet potatoes."
"You have eaten it?"
Qiao Sang said in surprise.
"Me."
Of course she has eaten these, which are common home-cooked dishes in the 21st century, but she has never seen them since time travel.
Qiao Sang waved his hand: "Come up with what she said."
The waiter agreed and left, and Qiao Sang lowered his voice and said: "These dishes are actually chain stores created by our city lord's wife and opened by her."
"Then why doesn't Changling exist?"
No wonder he almost forgot that there is another person in this world who comes from the same modern age as himself.
"Although these shops have been scattered after the disappearance of the city lord's wife, everyone is grateful for the kindness of the wife and is determined not to open anywhere in the south."
Suicheng is regarded as the gatekeeper of the Mucheng, and it is only separated from the Mucheng by a mountain col.
So that’s it, this compatriot is really capable in the kitchen and in the hall.
Unlike me, apart from being a soldier, he doesn’t know any other skills.
“Dishes for two guests” Yao Shu looked at these familiar dishes and felt as if she was in another world.
She really didn't expect that in this place, she could still eat food from her hometown.
This is the taste of the 21st century.
"Your wife, the city lord, must be an amazing woman."
Mu Beirong didn't remember much about his mother, so he talked very little about her.
Qiao Sang said while eating with relish: "Madam is a legendary woman in Mu City.
Of course, I also heard from the old people in Mu City that although Mu City has a unique terrain and is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are also disadvantages, such as the four sides.
Surrounded by mountains, it’s difficult to get in and out.”
"Mucheng was already close to northern Xinjiang, with a cold climate and little rain.
But one summer, there was a rare heavy rainstorm in Mucheng.
It didn't stop for three days and three nights.
Because of the difficulty of dredging, the entire Mucheng was in danger of being flooded.
It was The city lord’s wife brought people with her and said she wanted to dredge the river.”
"Dredging the river" Yao Shu thought of Dayu's flood control.
When faced with flooding, did he have the time and conditions?
"Well, everyone thinks it's impossible, but no one knows how Madam did it.
In just one day, Madam opened the mountain that had been blocked for half a year and released the mountain torrent."
Yao Shu was suddenly startled.
With the human and material resources of ancient times, that was obviously impossible.
In other words, thinking of Mu Beirong's Thirty-six Stratagems, could his mother be a person engaged in military work?

If she is right, she can break through the mountains in one day.
Except for bombs, it is almost impossible for her to make them.
In other words, there are raw materials for making explosives here.
"Young Mistress, Young Mistress" Qiao Sang waved his hand in front of Yao Shu's eyes.
"Ah" Yao Shu came back to her senses and smiled: "Nothing, let's eat."
She had never thought that modern weapons could be used in ancient times.
But why has no one heard of explosives?
Is it just for disaster prevention and has no intention of using it in war?
Otherwise, it will definitely be a weapon that can wipe out thousands of armies.
Thinking about it, if she planned to use explosives, the fortress would not be breached.
Yao Shu became more and more curious about this compatriot.
Unfortunately, she didn't know where she was now.
"I want to go out for a while, you don't have to follow me."
Yao Shu put down her chopsticks.
"How can that be done?"
Qiao Sang was still very conscientious.
"This is far enough from Changling, and I'm dressed like this, so nothing will happen to me."
Yao Shu wanted to inquire about something, but it was not convenient for him to follow: "Isn't there an inn next to me?
You go and book a room. , just wait for me there.”
After dismissing Qiao Sang, Yao Shu wandered aimlessly on the street.
She wanted to find something to see if her guess was correct.
In other words, in order to avoid any changes in the future, she also wanted to find out the situation in advance so that she could Defense really comes in handy.
She is a special forces soldier, so she naturally knows a lot about weapons.
However, given the backward conditions in ancient times, it is basically impossible to make some advanced ones.
But explosives are different.
They use resources produced by nature and are not necessarily Use high technology.
Charcoal is the most common and easiest material to find, but Yao Shu has never seen sulfur and saltpeter, and she doesn't know where Mu Beirong's mother found them.
While walking and shopping, I occasionally went into a curio store, but I didn't find anything useful.
I sighed, it really wasn't that simple.
When I was about to return the same way, I suddenly caught my eye with something at a roadside stall.
Yao Shu walked over quickly.
It was a crystalline stone, shaped like a kettle.
There was no sign of carving, so it must have been naturally formed.
The stall owner was a middle-aged man with a mustache.
When he saw that someone was actually interested in this stone, he became so enthusiastic that he said, "Young man has a good eye for it.
This is a rare thing that was brought here by a businessman from other places.
But A stone pot formed by gathering the essence of heaven and earth.”
After blowing loud enough, Yao Shu raised the corner of her mouth and looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally confirmed that it was indeed saltpeter.
"Boss, where can I find this stone?"
The stall owner shook his head: "I don't know about that.
It was brought by a businessman from other places.
I thought it was magical, so I bought it.
But I heard from him that he came from Yuncheng."
Yao Shu nodded and wrote down: "I want this stone, how much does it cost?"
The stall owner didn't expect that someone would actually buy a useless stone.

He was also deceived at the time.
He thought that such a naturally formed stone was very rare, so he bought it.
However, after more than a year, no one cared about it.
Come to think of it, who would spend money to buy such a stone that can be seen but not used?
It seems that he can sell it today.
The stall owner just wants to sell it without losing money, which is considered realistic: "Young master, if you really want it , give me five hundred cents."
At that time, he bought it for four hundred cents.
This news was the most useful to Yao Shu.
Buying the stone was just a convenience.
Yao Shu nodded, took out a tael of silver from her sleeve and handed it to the boss, then walked back holding the stone.
No matter what, she finally gained something.
But Yao Shu really didn't expect that her troubles would not be in vain.
I didn't expect it to be used so quickly.
