Doomsday Code

Chapter 283 Gunpowder

Looking at the fat boy's gloating expression, Chen Cheng's eyes rolled and then he thought of a good idea.

He glared at the little fat man and said:

"This is all because of you, kid. Stop talking nonsense and take me to your experimental site.

I didn’t write down a lot of precautions clearly in my last letter to you. Be careful if something happens, or you’ll die.”

Although the fat boy didn't know the purpose of the things Chen Cheng asked him to make, seeing that Chen Cheng didn't seem to be lying, he instantly felt like he was sitting on the crater of a volcano that could erupt at any time.

The little fat man couldn't help but ask the coachman to speed up.

The carriage quickly left the city and arrived at a suburban factory in the new city area.

After getting off the carriage, you can see fire prevention and other warnings written on the factory building.

After getting out of the car, Chen Cheng looked around and saw that there was no one living within a kilometer radius. He nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing this, the little fat guy started to brag:

"Well, you can be sure that I'll be the right person to cooperate with you on this business. I have faithfully implemented your request to isolate the outside world. There is no one living within a thousand-meter radius. Don't worry, the confidentiality has been maximized."

However, Chen Cheng looked at the little fat boy with a strange look, then patted him on the shoulder and said:

"You are such a good person."

The little fat boy didn't quite understand what Chen Cheng said, but he was still very happy to hear Chen Cheng praising him.

After entering the factory, I could only see workers recruited by the fat man wandering around in groups of three or four.

When the workers saw the little fat man, they all came up to say hello.

Chen Cheng frowned when he saw this, and the fat man immediately dispersed the people and said with a smile:

"The raw materials have been processed. Why don't you come and inspect them for me and tell me how to sell them? I don't have that much money to buy another batch of raw materials right now."

Chen Cheng didn't expect that the fat boy could be so efficient. He produced all the things he listed for him so quickly.

Chen Cheng patted the little fat man on the shoulder and said:

"There is no work to do here for a while, so let's let these workers go back first."

When the fat guy heard this, he thought Chen Cheng was dissatisfied with something and was planning to quit working with him.

However, when the fat man saw Chen Cheng's determined eyes, he had no choice but to go and tell the workers.

This little fat boy has not yet developed the behavior of those capitalists that Chen Cheng saw in his previous life. His factory building is still a factory building. In order to take care of his employees, his staff dormitory is still located in the new city area.

So in order to avoid recruiting more people later, the fat man directly let these workers go back to the dormitory during the holiday and wait for the notice to start work.

After all the workers had left, Chen Cheng had almost finished looking around the entire factory.

Then he found the little fat man and said:

"Come on, take me to see your storage warehouse and see what your results are."

When the fat man heard that he was going to see the results, he knew there was hope. He immediately pulled Chen Cheng to the warehouse, then took out the key and opened the door.

"Don't worry, I've stored everything according to your instructions. There won't be any mistakes or leaks."

Chen Cheng looked at the things in the warehouse and saw that they were really stored meticulously according to his requirements, and his heart finally settled down.

Then he looked at the smug look of the little fat man, and remembered how the little fat man had laughed at him in the carriage before, and he immediately came up with an idea.

"The stuff is well kept. Please bring me a pound of the black powder as requested. I want to inspect the goods."

When the fat boy heard about inspecting the goods, he was as excited as if he had eaten honey. He happily put on special gloves, then went to a big jar, opened the jar and took out a bag of black powder from it.

Chen Cheng asked the fat boy to pour the powder in a straight line on the ground outside the warehouse. Although the fat boy felt that this was a waste of things, he still did as Chen Cheng said.

"Brown, what are you going to do next? You can't even inspect the goods."

However, Chen Cheng showed a smug smile, and then he immediately became serious and said:

"That's how you check the goods. You're a fire mage, right? Just use a small flame to ignite this pile of powder."

However, the fat man was not a fool. When he saw the smug smile on Chen Cheng's face just now, he felt that there must be something wrong.

But seeing Chen Cheng's serious look, the little fat man still reached out his hand and used a small flame to light the powder on the ground.

Then with a swish, the black gunpowder on the ground exploded rapidly after coming into contact with the flame. A cloud of black smoke rose up, and the fat man's fair face turned directly into a black face.

Chen Cheng couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw this.

The little fat man really didn't react at all. He had never seen such a special powder in his life.

This time Chen Cheng really pissed off the little fat man, who immediately waved the fire magic in his hand and was ready to fight Chen Cheng to the death.

Chen Cheng was almost frightened to death when he saw this.

He quickly cast an ice magic, and the snow-covered ground froze instantly. The fat boy didn't notice and fell to the ground.

Then Chen Cheng saw this and cast another water magic to extinguish the small flame in the fat man's hand.

Seeing that everything was finally fine, Chen Cheng was so scared that he sat down on the ground.

When the fat guy saw this, he pounced on Chen Cheng like a hungry tiger, and then he stretched out his face and rubbed it on Chen Cheng's head, making Chen Cheng covered in black and gray.

But the little fat man didn't let Chen Cheng go, but pulled his collar and said:

"Tell me what it is you're asking me to produce, and why it burns so quickly when it's ignited."

Chen Cheng opened the little fat man's hand, and then looked at the black and gray on himself and the little fat man. He immediately said:

"Where are the pieces you were asked to produce? Take them out and I'll tell you."

The little fat man pointed to a corner of the warehouse and said:

"It's right there, go get it yourself."

Chen Cheng got up and walked to where the soap was placed, took out a piece, smelled it, and then took it out.

"Come, take the soap and I'll wash you."

As he spoke, Chen Cheng used a water magic, and a stream of water spurted out. Then, with the scrubbing of soap, the black dust on his face and hands was quickly washed away.

After seeing the cleaning power of soap, the potential for profiteer in the fat boy's mind took over again.

"This thing is good. Although it's not as practical and fast as magic, it can be sold to ordinary housewives. They can use it for laundry and so on."

This little fat boy is worthy of being the future successor of a profiteer family. He immediately thought of the sales of this soap.

However, Chen Cheng said with a half-smile:

"No, the truly amazing thing is what you made from the waste residue left after producing this soap. You should have processed all of it according to the method I gave you."

Chen Cheng asked, still a little worried.

The little fat man patted his chest and said:

"Don't worry, I did everything you said, but what's the use of that mud-like thing?"
