Jiang Yi pushed the door in, and just looked at Nie Shuyao.

Nie Shuyao smiled at him, although he didn't know the specific details, he had also worked with him, and he intuitively felt that he was a bright and upright person.

Jiang Yi hurriedly nodded in return, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Miss Nie early in the morning." ”

"It's a coincidence!" Nie Shuyao echoed.

Blacksmith Zhang had just left the drawing, and laughed and said, "Xiao Jiang, it turns out that you know each other, this is easy to do." I don't know what rare things Xiao Jiang is going to do this time. ”

Jiang Yi said: "Mine is just a trivial matter, I don't know if Miss Nie came to find Blacksmith Zhang for ......?" ”

"I just want to ask Uncle Blacksmith to make us a small stove." Nie Shuyao said.

Blacksmith Zhang said: "This is not an ordinary furnace, my old Zhang family has been a blacksmith for generations, whether a new object is good or not, whether it can be used or not, I will know at a glance at the blacksmith." If this thing is really made...... hehe! ”

Jiang Yi was very familiar with Blacksmith Zhang, and as soon as he saw his expression, he knew that this thing might really be a big seller, so he couldn't help but be curious, and said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of object this is." ”

Blacksmith Zhang glanced at Nie Shuyao, although he was an ironworker, many things were kept secret by customers, and he wouldn't say much without the permission of the guests.

Nie Shuyao felt that the blacksmith's character was not bad, and he didn't know if it was because he knew Jiang Yi, and felt that there would be no less cooperation with him in the future, so he said: "It's just a furnace, and there is nothing to keep secret from Jiang Gongzi." ”

Blacksmith Zhang then handed the drawings to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi looked at it seriously, this picture was very detailed. Each part and how to use it are explained.

The four of them sat on the small square table in the blacksmith shop, and no one spoke, and the little apprentice had already brought tea.

Nie Shuyao took a sip of tea and said, "We were invited to Nie's house." The food is naturally different from that of the big family, although they said to give us a small kitchen, but after all, it takes time. Why don't we get a small stove for ourselves, it should be easy for Uncle Blacksmith. ”

Blacksmith Zhang patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, girl, not to mention that you know Xiao Jiang, you are a guest who comes to my blacksmith shop for the first time, and my blacksmith Zhang will do his best to do a good job for him." ”

"That's good. I wonder if this stove Blacksmith may be completed today? Nie Shuyao said very politely.

"Yes, but there are a few places where I don't quite understand the blacksmith."

"Oh? Let's take a look. Nie Shuyao said with a smile.

At this time, Jiang Yi also finished reading the drawings, and said in a deep voice: "Lao Zhang is playing this stove idea?" ”

"Hey, hey. Xiao Jiang still knows me as a blacksmith. ”

Nie Shuyao and Nie Tianxi glanced at each other, and they both felt that there was something else that could not be done here?

Nie Tianxi asked, "I wonder if you two can explain what you say?" If it doesn't work, let's change to a blacksmith shop. ”

"Don't! Don't. Blacksmith, I'll just say it. Blacksmith Zhang waved his hand and said, "I don't know how Miss Nie came up with it, our Zhang family blacksmith shop has not come up with such a good method for several generations of blacksmithing." This thing is small and light. Presumably, many people will follow suit in the future. ”

"And then?" Nie Shuyao said softly, she had already thought of what Blacksmith Zhang was going to say, but this reminded her that it seemed that the first pot of gold was going to be earned from here.

Blacksmith Zhang said: "Miss Nie, can you only let my Zhang family's blacksmith shop make this stove in the future?" ”

Nie Shuyao didn't answer directly, looked at Jiang Yi and said, "I don't know what Gongzi Jiang thinks?" ”

Jiang Yi said: "Miss Nie, you have officially returned to the Nie family, right?" It must be not easy to get out all the way. It's better to cooperate with Xiao Luo and them, and ensure that Miss Nie can get the greatest benefits. ”

When he said this, Jiang Yi's eyes lit up, and he also thought of the wonderful use of this stove.

Even the ancients who were native to them thought of it. Nie Shuyao naturally thought about it. I thought it would be convenient for myself, but I didn't expect that these two people in front of me were also people who could do business.

In this day and age, there was no such thing as heating and air conditioning. In winter, the big families in the north can also burn the earth dragon, get a charcoal brazier or something, and the poor in the countryside also have a fire kang. But there must be a lot of poor people in the city, and they need a lot of firewood to burn the kang, and they even buy firewood for cooking, so how can they burn it so much.

However, with this small coal stove, it is different, and heating and cooking are absolutely correct. Underground coal has been widely used here, and this coal stove is really a good thing for the benefit of the people.

Nie Shuyao suddenly felt that this thing should squeak with the county master? If it can be promoted to the whole country, it will be a great achievement.

Thinking of this, Nie Shuyao had a plan and said with a smile: "Jiang Xiaoluo, I think it's feasible." Xi'er, what do you think? ”

She would discuss everything with Nie Tianxi, and she never treated him as a child, and this was also the property of their sister and brother.

Nie Tianxi said: "I also think it's feasible, Brother Luo has helped us a lot." It's just right to go to the Zhenwei House in the county to have a look. ”

"Haha, that's great." Jiang Yi laughed and said, he had always been restrained, and he was rarely bold.

Nie Shuyao couldn't help but look at him twice, thinking that this person had the same plan as her.

"That...... Miss Nie, what do you think of our Zhangjia blacksmith shop? Blacksmith Zhang asked anxiously.

Nie Shuyao knew that the two had known each other for a long time when he looked at his acquaintance with Jiang Yi, and Jiang Xiaoluo was a reliable person to contact, not to mention that strange woman, Miss Song Yan'er? Presumably, this deal is a sure deal.

"Okay, then it's decided." Nie Shuyao clapped his hands and said, "However, the specific matters can be discussed another day, but today I have to make a furnace like this immediately." We're all on this stove for today's dinner. ”

Blacksmith Zhang didn't answer immediately, took the drawing and said, "This little one is no problem, it looks like it's made of iron sheets." But this slightly larger one looks like a thick iron, is this the iron we use for blacksmiths? It doesn't feel like it! ”

Nie Shuyao suddenly thought of something, the iron used by the blacksmith is all wrought iron, and this thick one is cast from pig iron. It seems that such a stove is not easy to make, and I feel that I still have to breathe with the county master.

"Can pig iron be cast but not malleable?" She whispered as she thought.

"Casting?" Blacksmith Zhang asked rhetorically.

Jiang Yi also looked at Nie Shuyao with a questioning expression. I'd like to hear her explanation.

"Huh? What did I say. Nie Shuyao said.

"Pig iron can be cast, but not malleable." Jiang Yi reminded.

Nie Shuyao flicked her forehead, feeling that trouble was coming.

Sure enough, Blacksmith Zhang stared at her with bright eyes. He is a blacksmith and naturally knows pig iron, wrought iron. However, there is no casting ability in the small blacksmith shop, and it can't be cast, and that thing is managed by the imperial court. The common people are not allowed to dabble, otherwise it will be regarded as a rebellion, which is a great crime of killing the head and destroying the ancestors.

However, Blacksmith Zhang didn't expect that this little girl already knew about pig iron and wrought iron at a young age. It's not easy.

"Miss Nie, I don't know where you learned about this pig iron ......."

Nie Shuyao hurriedly interrupted his questioning and said, "I also read it from a miscellaneous book. It says that this kind of iron is resistant to burning, because it is thick. Unlike this kind of iron sheet, it is easy to break if it is burned for a long time. I think that if it were cast, this kind of stove would probably not break for an ordinary person. As for whether she can do it, the little woman really doesn't know. ”

She chuckled innocently, "It's better to be like this." Uncle Blacksmith. I'll improve this stove a little more, and you can make it for me today. It's thin, it's lightweight! You can use it when you go home and tinker with it. ”

As he spoke, he took out his pouch and pen and paper, and began to draw.

Blacksmith Zhang does know more than Nie Shuyao, this can be cast and forged, and this is a secret that can be inherited for a long time in a blacksmith shop.

So I didn't ask any more, thinking that this girl was just imaginative. But that's how many things are, the layman leads the insider.

After finishing the drawing, Nie Shuyao handed over the new picture to Blacksmith Zhang. This is an improved version of the coal stove, one is made of honeycomb coal. One was wood-burning, and a chimney was added. How to improve it in the future is left to this experienced blacksmith Zhang.

So they stayed in the blacksmith's shop for an hour before they could tell the story. Out of the blacksmith shop, it was also three poles in the morning, and there was a commotion outside.

In the end, Jiang Yi didn't have a good discussion with Blacksmith Zhang, and led them straight to Jiang Xiaoluo's Zhenwei Residence.

Zhenweiju also opened its doors early to welcome guests, although Ling County is Jiang Xiaoluo's base camp, but since marrying Miss Song, this has become their home.

When they arrived at Zhenweiju, the shopkeepers naturally knew Jiang Yi and welcomed them in with a smile on their faces.

The Zhenweiju of Qu County is a three-storey small building, not big but very stylish, from the outside to see the carved gallery and painting building, there is a sense of wealth and nobility. But entering is different for each private room, and it is said that this is the hand of Miss Song.

On the third floor, there is a small room left by Jiang Xiaoluo for himself, and the decoration is also very elegant.

After Jiang Yi came here, he sent the shopkeeper away, and really pushed the door in.

Jiang Xiaoluo may have just arrived, and he was still lying on the table yawning, and when he saw that it was his little uncle coming, he didn't bother to say: "Little uncle is back so soon." ”

But when he saw Nie Shuyao and the others also follow, he suddenly fell asleep, jumped up like a monkey, got dressed neatly, and had a decent smile on his face, "Miss Nie really entered the city." ”

Nie Shuyao quipped: "Yes, we countrymen have finally entered the city." ”

Jiang Xiaoluo scratched his head and said, "That...... Hehe, that's not what I meant. ”

"That's it!" Jiang Yi patted his head and said, "Hurry up and find a place to sit, Miss Nie has a big deal to talk to you about." ”

As soon as he heard that he was doing business, Jiang Xiao Rome was full of spirits, and politely invited them into the private seat behind the screen.

In Nie Shuyao's opinion, this is Jiang Xiaoluo's office, and the place behind the screen is the reception room.

The four of them sat down, there was hot tea on the side, and Yuqin became a tea pouring maid.

Under Jiang Xiaoluo's curiosity, Nie Shuyao calmly drew several stoves, including a small coal stove specially used for boiling water and tea.

As soon as he finished painting, Jiang Xiaoluo praised: "Wonderful! Such a coal stove is really multi-purpose. In the future, when I travel with Yan'er, I will also have a guy who cooks on the fire, and this coal business seems to be doing well. ”

Nie Shuyao suddenly gave him a thumbs up, this person deserves to be a businessman! (To be continued......)
