Princess Consort Is No Pushover

In the past three years, Yun Ruoyue and the others have grown more and more crops every year. Yun Ruoyue also taught everyone a lot of modern production techniques, which greatly improved the production efficiency of Nanyue.

There are also more and more Chu people coming to South Vietnam, and everyone gathers here to build South Vietnam together.

Yun Ruoyue and Chu Xuanchen helped others, not by giving food directly, but by teaching them to be self-reliant, and letting them rely on their own labor in exchange for food.

In this way, the people will work hard and understand the principles of self-reliance and struggle.

Now South Vietnam, with the unity and cooperation of the people, has become rich in materials and very rich.

The elite soldiers under Chu Xuanchen also gradually increased from a few thousand to fifty thousand.

Moreover, the quality of the 50,000 Zhennan army is not inferior to that of the previous Xuance army. With these soldiers, no one in South Vietnam would dare to invade again.

Not only that, Chu Xuanchen often led his soldiers to help the people, they helped the people pave roads and bridges, and solve difficulties.

Chu Xuanchen also sent people to build many large ships, and then specially selected sailors with good water skills to go fishing at sea. Not only that, they also developed a navy to prevent the invasion of foreign enemies.

Chu Xuanchen also built many piers and ports by the sea, and then transported South Vietnam's materials to surrounding countries and regions by sea, and traded with others, exchanging his own materials for others' materials.

Not only that, Yun Ruoyue also teaches everyone to do sea farming at sea, which can increase the production of fish.

They also adjusted measures to local conditions, re-planned the city, planned streets, repaired rivers, dams, and water control, etc., making South Vietnam orderly, clean and tidy.

They took in refugees, opened sea bans, pacified pirates, developed agriculture and commerce, and slowly turned South Vietnam, a poor and empty place, into a rich place.

Yun Ruoyue and Chu Xuanchen also built many philanthropic halls to adopt homeless orphans.

The two also funded the construction of a medical clinic to attract powerful doctors to come to see them. Yun Ruoyue would personally lead apprentices and recruit medical students, hoping to train more doctors.

In the past three years, the two of them have been busy almost every day. Although they are busy, they have lived a fulfilling life.

Seeing that South Vietnam is very prosperous now, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and their lives are getting better and better, the two also feel that no matter how hard they work, it is worth it.

Because it is the long-standing wish of the couple to make the common people live better.

At noon that day, when Chu Xuanchen was reviewing official documents in his study, he suddenly heard a loud "bang" from Yun Ruoyue's laboratory next door.

"Yue'er!" Hearing the loud noise, Chu Xuanchen's heart trembled in shock, and he quickly ran towards the laboratory next door.

Just after running to the door of the laboratory, he saw a burst of thick smoke coming out of it, and Yun Ruoyue was lying on the ground uncomfortable.

"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?" Chu Xuanchen hurried over and hugged Yun Ruoyue in his arms.

Only then did he realize that Yun Ruoyue's head and face were covered with a lot of black ash.

He was so anxious that his pupils were wide open, and his heart almost broke.

Seeing this, Yun Ruoyue quickly wiped the black ash on her face, and said, "Xuan Chen, don't worry, I'm fine, I'm just doing an experiment."

"Experiment? What kind of experiment? And, are you really okay?" Chu Xuanchen said, carefully inspecting Yun Ruoyue, and found that she was indeed not injured except for a lot of black dust on her body.

This time, his heart fell to the ground.

"I'm really fine. When the explosion here just now, I fell down early, so I'm fine." Yun Ruoyue said, looking at the billowing smoke in front of her, said excitedly, "Xuan Chen, I have good news for you. I finally made gunpowder."

"Gunpowder? What is this?" Chu Xuanchen asked suspiciously.

"Come and see quickly, these black powdery things are gunpowder." Yun Ruoyue said, pulling Chu Xuanchen to a table.

Just as Chu Xuanchen walked over, he found several transparent pipes erected there.

Inside those tubes, there were many black powdery things, and he couldn't help saying, "Yue'er, is this the gunpowder you mentioned? What's the difference between it and firecrackers?"

"They are very different. The power of firecrackers is relatively weak, and this kind of gunpowder can produce many powerful firearms. For example, it can be made into shells, artillery, rockets, as well as thunderbolt cannons, thunderbolts, poison smoke balls, etc. These Firearms are very powerful, with them, we can easily defeat the enemy when fighting." Yun Ruoyue said confidently.

These are all made by her through modern technology, combined with sulfur, nitrate, carbon, etc. This is the real gunpowder, and of course it is powerful.

"Really? This gunpowder is so powerful?" Chu Xuanchen supported Yun Ruoyue's shoulders, his face already full of excitement.

Yun Ruoyue nodded, "Yes, in fact, gunpowder was widely used in our era, because with it, we can be victorious in all battles. Xuan Chen, I will make a few thunderbolts right away, and you will go with me when the time comes Look how powerful it is."
