Cao Jie was waiting at home obediently, which made Bai Feng blush.
Although he had fulfilled his promise, he still escaped at the last minute.
He had not fulfilled his promise to Cao Jie, which made Bai Feng feel very embarrassed.
So, Bai Feng took Cao Jie to go shopping again.
This time, he actually met an acquaintance again!
Cao Pi!
Cao Pi only brought two attendants and did not come out with Sima Yi.
After all, the secret contact between Cao Pi and Sima Yi was not made public at all.
He was not like Yang Xiu and Cao Zhi, who were known by everyone.
However, Cao Pi did not seem to have much interest in Bai Feng. He simply greeted him and left in a hurry.
Bai Feng could not help but frown.
What was Cao Pi doing?
In Bai Feng's impression, Cao Pi basically did not go out unless Cao Cao ordered him to follow the army.
After all, Cao Pi was shrewd and not as simple as Cao Zhi.
Since he came out in such a hurry, it was obviously because of something.
Otherwise, with Cao Pi's character, he would not be so reckless.
However, accompanying Cao Jie was more important now, so Bai Feng did not think too much about it.
But this kind of thing could not be ignored.
Compared to Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu, who were enemies on the surface, Cao Pi and Sima Yi, who hid in the dark and did not easily make a move, were the most terrifying.
Especially Sima Yi. If he was not dealt with, the world would inevitably be in chaos.
After all, the Five Barbarians Rebellion began after the decline of the Jin Dynasty founded by his grandson, Sima Yan.
All of this was related to the establishment of the Jin Dynasty.
If it were not for the fact that the Sima family was unable to stabilize the country, they would not have let the foreign races succeed.
One must know that under the suppression of the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years, no foreign race had the strength to fight against the Central Plains.
Even the Xiongnu, Turks and Qiang people who looked extremely arrogant at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
They only dared to do some petty theft and did not dare to attack the Central Plains.
However, after the Jin Dynasty's miraculous manipulation, a total of five foreign races actually rose up.
He even let them enter the Central Plains and torment the people there.
It was impossible for such a thing to happen.
Even if Cao Cao unified the world, it absolutely could not conceal Sima Yi's wolfish ambition.
As long as Cao Cao was succeeded by Cao Pi, Sima Yi would definitely be favored and become an important minister.
If that happened, Cao Wei's empire would definitely be handed over.
This kind of thing that was clearly recorded in history would not change much.
No matter how hard he tried, as long as he didn't get rid of this obvious traitor, this kind of thing would happen.
Soon, the sky turned dark, and the curfew arrived.
Cao Jie reluctantly returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Bai Feng, on the other hand, did not return to his residence. Instead, he turned around and entered the military factory again.
The craftsmen in the military factory were specially approved to work during the curfew.
After all, Bai Feng used a day and night shift system.
Moreover, no one would object to this matter.
First of all, Bai Feng was the one who suggested it. Furthermore, Cao Cao had agreed to it.
Even if the ministers did not agree, they would be quickly rejected and would be suspected of Cao Cao's foresight.
Secondly, this was a new weapon made for the Wei Kingdom.
Although these ministers did not know what kind of new weapon it was, the existence of the steelmaking furnace directly blocked their mouths.
Who dared to say a word about such a miraculous thing?
They were all strategists and generals of the Wei Kingdom. Who didn't want their forces to be powerful?
Of course, except for a few specific traitors.
After finding the right direction in the afternoon, ten muskets were quickly made.
After experimenting, all ten muskets could be used!
It even exceeded Bai Feng's expectations.
After Ma Jun added his own ideas and modified the muskets, the speed of filling the muskets was not slow.
However, it was still not enough on the battlefield. It could be used for guerrilla warfare.
Thus, Bai Feng handed the flintlock blueprint to Ma Jun.
The flintlock was invented by foreigners in the Middle Ages.
This kind of technology, which was more than a thousand years ahead, had high requirements.
Although the requirements were high, it was completely possible for the current Wei Kingdom to make it.
Moreover, with the foundation of making muskets, it was not difficult for them to make a flintlock.
The difficult part was not making the flintlock, but modifying it.
The flintlock was not as simple as the initial version. There were many things that could be modified.
This was one of the reasons why Bai Feng made it the final version of the musket.
After all, Ma Jun's knowledge of machinery had reached the peak.
He was always able to draw inferences about other things. After making an existing blueprint, he was able to modify it.
This was what Bai Feng admired the most.
After handing over the blueprint, Bai Feng left the military factory.
After returning home, Bai Feng went to the backyard again to check on the growth of the grain.
At this time, most of the grain had already started to bear fruit. In about a month, it could be eaten directly.
However, this month was the most difficult.
During this period, it needed to be watered frequently.
Due to the high growth rate of these crops, there was a high demand for the amount of land and water needed to grow them.
Of course, there was more than one seed in the mall.
In addition to the two-month version that matured quickly, there was also a half-year version.
This seed would take half a year to mature, so it didn't require much land and watering.
Moreover, its output was twice as much as the two-month version!
That was a minimum of forty thousand catties per mu!
What kind of concept was forty thousand catties per mu?!
If it was planted in a county, it could feed the entire Central Plains!
Moreover, if it was planted in the entire county, there would be a lot of surplus food!
This way, they could store food.
After all, the ancient times did not have good methods to deal with natural disasters. They could only endure it.
With stored food, at least they would not starve when natural disasters came.
During natural disasters such as drought and flood, the seeds might still mature, but the growth cycle would be greatly prolonged.
However, things like locusts or earthquakes could not be prevented at all.
Moreover, once they appeared, even such tenacious seeds would not be able to withstand it.
In the future, the seeds that matured in half a year would be planted.
Only these seeds were the most normal and tenacious. They did not need to be guarded too much.
Seeds that matured in two months were too precious. They were not suitable for planting everywhere.
However, in order to solve the urgent problem as soon as possible, they had to choose the seeds that matured in two months.
After confirming the maturing time, Bai Feng went to sleep.
At this time, news came from the frontline.
At this time, the Cao Army was about to return to Xuchang.
