Song Jing pulled the bellows hard, and he didn't dare to mess around anymore.

Decided to follow the master to study hard and carefully observe every step, Lord Yan was cautious in his work, but he got carried away because of the improvement of the silkworm method, causing a big disaster, and he was guilty at the moment.

He was fascinated.

Originally, forging iron was made of fried wrought iron, which was forged and formed after being burned red.

However, there is not much iron smelted from a furnace of iron ore, and in order to increase the amount of iron tools, it is necessary to increase the amount of wrought iron produced.

In this way, it is necessary to increase the amount of iron ore invested, and more iron will be produced.

Seeing him working so hard, the master of the iron shop sighed: "Xiucai, don't you concentrate on gaining fame, and you want to be a forced servant like an old man in the future?" ”

Song Jing lowered his head and was a little embarrassed: "As soon as Xiao Sheng entered the teacher's door, he did a heinous thing that made the teacher ashamed. ”

The old master smiled with a little urgency: "You can still do bad things?" ”

"Xiaosheng...... Blew up Wang Gong's factory. ”

The old master's face suddenly froze.

Song Jing expected his reaction, blowing up the Ordnance Bureau was tantamount to the crime of murder and arson, if it weren't for the responsibility of his mentor, I am afraid that he would already be in prison now.

In short, he wants to try again.

It's only been seven days,

Zhou Yu found Yan Chengjin and scolded: "Virtuous nephew, Song Jing is going to dismantle the old man's smelter!" If it weren't for your face, the old man wouldn't let him go to the iron smelter unless you give the silver, yes, the silver. ”

The person who guided Song Jing to the iron smelting factory was naturally Yan Chengjin, otherwise, which iron smelting factory would want a weak talent.

"What is Song Jing going to do?" Yan Chengjin asked puzzled.

Zhou Yu said angrily: "He wants to build a big furnace in the old man's smelting factory, saying that he wants to use giant wood and salt clay to make it, and giant wood is not cheap, this is still done according to his own method, can it be made!" This boy still has to use fire arrows, and good iron and charcoal are not burned. ”

Isn't this exactly what I gave him?

The furnace of Daming ironmaking is very small, and the amount of iron ore that can be loaded at one time is small, and the amount of iron produced is naturally small.

But the furnace got bigger, and the temperature became a problem again.

Heating a large stove requires a lot of heat.

Therefore, Song Jing wants to use fire arrows.

The flame is a type of fire ink made from hard wood strips, the flame is more fierce than coal, and when it burns and breaks, it does not turn into debris to block the vents, allowing the blower to fully function.

The structure of the piston blower used today is the same as that of modern blower equipment, and the effectiveness is extremely strong.

Yan Chengjin was overjoyed in his heart, and said to He Neng: "Go to the treasury and get five hundred taels of silver." ”

Zhou Yu was dumbfounded.

Yan Chengjin is even more indecisive than himself, a scholar running to the iron smelting factory made him strange, Zhou Yu was surprised: "Virtuous nephew, is it possible that this scholar still has a background?" ”

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully and said, "He is the protégé of the old Taishan Zeng Jian, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and the prince. ”

Zeng Jian?

Zhou Yu blinked, he knew Zeng Jian.

At the beginning, he wanted to let the officials of his fellow villagers enter the Ministry of Industry, and asked Zeng Jian to recommend him, but he refused, didn't he accept protégés?

However, although he had heard about the bombing of the Ordnance Bureau, he didn't know that Song Jing did it, otherwise he wouldn't dare to keep him in his iron smelting factory.

When Zhou Yu went to court, he only cared about where there was another flood and drought, and as soon as the price of grain and salt rose, he immediately shipped it over and sold it.

"Five hundred taels of silver, it is enough to buy a good courtyard in the capital and build a stove." Yan Chengjin handed him five hundred taels of silver.

Zhou Yu took it with a smile: "It's still a good nephew!" But the old man still didn't understand, what did the virtuous nephew ask him to build a stove for? ”

"Naturally, it is to improve iron smelting, exchange the iron tools of the Ming Dynasty for business, and go to the country of Franco."

Zhou Yu's smile gradually disappeared, why don't you say that Your Majesty is your real father?

After taking the silver, he left beautifully, but he always felt that something was wrong, Yan Chengjin, this guy, was really generous.

Go back and ask Song Jing that kid!

Zengfu,

These days, repairing Wang Gong's factory, Zeng Jian personally supervised, and had no time to take care of others, so I only remembered Song Jinglai when I was free today.

"Yixian, if you don't understand something, just ask the old man questions."

Song Jingdao: "It is already a great favor to let students enter the study to read, and I dare not bother the teacher anymore, and the students will definitely work hard to gain fame and live up to the teacher's high hopes." ”

Zeng Jian nodded, he really wanted to recruit Song Jing as his son-in-law, but unfortunately he already had a family.

"Master, someone has come to the palace and sent a lot of things." The servant said happily.

Han Wen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Xiao Jing, the master of ceremonies, came in person, and the prince's marriage was finally put on the agenda.

Zhu Houzhao slipped out of the palace again, quietly came to Yan's mansion, looked at Yan Chengjin directly, and became suspicious: "Lao Gao, this palace is about to get married, why hasn't Zhang Yong taken back the dowry of this palace, is there really a poisonous country in the world?" ”

How long does it take to hike to Indo?

Yan Chengjin didn't know either.

It cannot be measured by the standards of the previous life, after all, the road conditions are completely different, and after the sea ban, the Silk Road is rarely traveled, and it may have been deserted.

There are often horse bandits in the northwest, and even Tang Seng has to be protected by four bodyguards.

Yan Chengjin didn't care: "Gonggong Zhang is only afraid that he will fail, and His Royal Highness will forget about him." ”

Zhu Houzhao stared at Yan Chengjin with a smile, looking meaningful.

Yan Chengjin snorted coldly, ordered someone to go to the study, and brought the Shan Hai Jing: "Your Highness sees it yourself, what is written on it, but it is a poisonous country?" ”

Zhu Houzhao's eyes widened, he really had a poisonous country, and blinked his eyes seriously: "Do you say that the palace should send another person?" ”

"I'm afraid it's too late to go now."

"What should I do with the dowry of the main palace!" Zhu Houzhao pinched Yan Chengjin's neck.

In his own home, Yan Chengjin was not afraid of him, and hurriedly shouted: "Didn't you see him beating Young Master Ben?" Quick, beat him up! ”

He Neng and the others looked embarrassed, who didn't know that this Zhu Gongzi, who came to the house all day long, was the prince of the court, where did he dare to go up and do it.

"Zhu Gongzi, don't beat my young master, if you want to fight, hit the villain!"

After a while, Zhu Houzhao asked, "Old Gao, what about the dowry of the palace?" ”

"What's so difficult about this, wait here, the minister still has a way." Yan Chengjin tidied up his clothes and walked out of the door.

"I'm going to go too."

The sedan chair man carried the sedan chair all the way to the Li Mansion.

Zhu Houzhao was about to go in, but was stopped by Yan Chengjin: "Your Highness can't go in." ”

"Why?"

"His Royal Highness rejected Lord Li's daughter, wouldn't it be embarrassing to see Li Qing'e for a while?"

Yan Chengjin was afraid that Zhu Houzhao would regret seeing Li Qing'e's appearance and would withdraw from Zeng Jian's marriage.

That's it.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, so he sat on the sedan chair and waited.

Menzi knew that Yan Chengjin was a student of Li Dongyang, so he invited him to the main hall.

Yan Chengjin just sat down, and saw Li Qing'e again, she was holding a cup of tea in her hand, and she had a bookish temperament, which was quite similar to Li Dongyang.

She took the tea and put it on the bookcase: "My father has had lunch, and he always likes to take a nap, so please wait for the adults first." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Li Qing'e's eyes showed a touch of brilliance, and she brought some pastries.

After a while, Li Dongyang walked into the main hall: "What are you looking for?" ”

"Students want to ask for a pair of ink treasures from adults, the bigger the better." Yan Chengjin Road.

In the capital, Li Dongyang's calligraphy is first-class.

Zeng Jian likes big-character ink treasures, and asked Zhu Houzhao to give him a pair of ink treasures, which can be regarded as his favorite.

Li Dongyang smiled a little proudly: "I already knew that you liked the words of this official, why did you come to ask for it now?" ”

"............" Yan Chengjin.

Li Dongyang took him to the study, spread out the paper and asked, "What do you want to write?" ”

Yan Chengjin thought about it and said, "Just write a Xi character." ”

Li Dongyang didn't ask much, and after writing a few words on the paper to practice his hands, he held his breath and concentrated on the paper, and dropped a big character on the paper.

The ink was still shining, and Yan Chengjin took it out to Zhu Houzhao: "It's still hot, Your Highness send it to Lord Zeng." ”
