Chapter Twenty-Four: A Difficult Start

The many doctors and craftsmen that my mother brought with her from Zhao are undoubtedly the most advanced talents in various industries in the world. But for Ji Kang, it was far from enough.

For a person who is only six years old, but his head is full of more than 2,000 years of knowledge that is more than 2,000 years ahead of this era, coming to this era is undoubtedly the saddest thing.

In the previous life, what I thought was very ordinaryβ€”paper, steel, coke, cement, etc.β€”was so difficult to think of in this era, and I had to build and make it myself.

However, when he came to this world, the only thing Ji Kang was happy about was that he was not born in the most basic and hungry people's families, if that is the case, according to the current medical conditions, whether he can live to adulthood is a matter of two things!

And now that he was born in a royal and aristocratic family, this identity undoubtedly gives him a reasonable reason for doing everything and the basic conditions for doing these things.

When Ji Kang came to this world and knew that it was after the Warring States Period, and he was a prince of the Yan royal family, he was terrified in his heart.

There is no organization to rely on here, the primary purpose is to make yourself strong and live safely; The second purpose is to live the most ordinary life in the previous life. But these two purposes, from the very beginning, made Ji Kang feel extremely difficult.

But after all, I have also experienced many years of hardships in my previous life, and I still have the determination to struggle and the motivation to persevere.

When he came out of the smoky coking plant, he instructed his entourage to find Zhen Shi, the director of the textile factory.

He drew a mask and a fingerless glove on the silk silk and asked Zhen, "Can you make these two things?" ”

Zhen looked at these two things on the silk silk and said, "Childe, this is very simple, ordinary farmers' mothers-in-law can make it, what's the use of this?" ”

When Ji Kang simply explained the functions of masks and gloves, Shi Yong, the "mayor" of the industrial zone next to him, shouted excitedly: "Childe, this thing can be used in the army!" With these two things, the winter of the soldiers is much better. ”

Ji Kang reacted, blinked his eyes, and said to Zhen and Shi Yong: "You first make a thousand sets of these two things as samples." Then he handed over the mask, gloves and their patterns to the dramatist, and asked him to order the county and county officials to distribute cloth according to their patterns, and let the mothers-in-law of the peasant households make these things in their spare time, and the government will pay them. In addition, the drawings of these two things were also handed over to Su Qing, and the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce were asked to organize personnel to produce according to the patterns, and the government would purchase them. ”

Looking at Zhen who was far away, he said to Shi Yong with emotion: "In this era, why is it so difficult to do something?" ”

Then he ignored Shi Yong, who was confused, and walked towards the steel mill with Shi Dang.

In the steel plant, Ji Kang looked at the built blast furnace, which was considered the most advanced smelting blast furnace by Ding Dashan, the director of the steel plant in this era, and asked, "How long will it take to ignite the smelting?" ”

Ding Dashan hurriedly replied: "Childe, tomorrow is an auspicious time, and you can light the fire." ”

Ji Kang said to Ding Dashan: "Think about it, is there anything else to prepare?" ”

"Childe, this iron ore has also been smelted by Xiao Lao'er before. The reason why it is difficult to smelt is that the temperature told by Childe is the key.

Now the little old man obeys the order of the son, and the steel that the son said has been successfully manufactured through experiments below. Now this process is to replace the fuel wood from wood to coke, and if nothing else, iron ore can be easily smelted into iron.

According to Childe, charcoal is used to remove impurities in the molten iron to see if steel can be manufactured in large quantities. ”

Ji Kang looked at Ding Dayou with a serious face and asked, "Director Ding, is this blast furnace built with cement from the cement factory and refractory bricks made from the brick factory?" ”

"Childe, according to your orders, it is made of cement and refractory bricks."

Ji Kang nodded and said, "After lighting the fire tomorrow, you must pay attention to safety." ”

"No."

Back in Anshan, lying on the couch, I didn't want to move. knocked on the head of Wangcai, who also climbed onto the couch, and said, "Wangcai! Childe, I'm working too hard! Am I easy? I ......"

Wangcai didn't know how to answer his master's words, so he just licked Ji Kang's little hand with his tongue flatteringly.

Ji Kang has no choice but to use the only technology in this era, supplemented by the classroom knowledge and life experience in his own mind in his previous life, and strive to transform the current process and create tools and weapons that transcend this era.

Because Ji Kang understands that if you want to change the social structure of this era, you must develop the productive forces, and to develop the productive forces, you must develop the means of production. I'm afraid this is one of the reasons why God brought me into this world.

Due to the smooth operation of the wooden factory, he transferred the master craftsman Wang Komatsu out to build a paper mill.

At this moment, in Anshan Ji Kang's study. Ji Kang pointed to the silk silk of the papermaking process he had drawn and asked, "Director Wang, do you understand this papermaking process now?" ”

"Childe, my subordinates understand."

"Okay, you take this silk silk, if you don't understand, you can come to me again."

"No."

The accident still happened, and the blast furnace that was thought to be able to smelt steel cracked after less than a day and a night of smelting, but fortunately it was found in time and no casualties were caused.

And the steel is also because the impurities in the molten iron are not separated from the clean, and it becomes scrap steel. There was no way, so I could only ask Ding Dashan and other craftsmen to find out the reason and continue to improve.

Although Ji Kang was prepared for the failure of the first furnace, he still felt a little frustrated. But these scrap steels made Ding Dashan overjoyed, and said to Ji Kang: "Childe, although these steels can't meet our requirements, they can be forged to make good steel!" ”

Ji Kang was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, didn't he? Didn't the Ming and Qing dynasties in the previous life produce many steels such as 100 steels through forging?

Facing Ding Dashan, Ji Kang said happily: "This is also a way, which proves that we have made steel." Director Ding, I'll draw you a few more utensils, and you can ask the craftsmen to forge these scrap steel and make them according to the pattern. ”

Then on the silk silk on the desk, he drew a few patterns of utensils and handed them to Ding Dashan and said, "Look, it's not difficult, right?" ”

Then he pointed to a few utensils on the silk silk and said: "Director Ding, add a piece of wood to call it an iron shovel, and I will call it an iron chisel...... These things are of great benefit for digging ditches, repairing ditches, leveling roads, etc. ”

Ding Dashan suddenly realized and said: "Childe, with these things, it will be of great help to farmers in the future and for us to build roads, bridges, reservoirs and canals!" ”

Ji Kang nodded and said, "With steel, everything is convenient." In addition, we can build a 'utensils room' in the steel plant, and through new processes such as annealing, normalizing, and quenching, as well as forging, we can now produce a steady stream of steel. ”

Turning to Huang Yong next to him, he said, "This artifact room, as a top secret, no unrelated people are allowed to enter." ”

"No." Huang Yong bowed and replied.

After Ding Dashan and Huang Yong left, Ji Kang took Wangcai alone and stood on the wall of Anshan. Looking at the industrial area in the distance, he patted Wangcai's head and said to Wangcai: "Wangcai, we will succeed, we will succeed, you are right?" ”

Wangcai arched his master with his head, and "Wangwang" called twice, as if to tell his master, yes, it will definitely succeed.

Ji Kang was in Liaodi, working hard for his career. The land of the Central Plains is full of war.

Yan and Qin had already complied with last year's secret agreement, led by Yan general Rong Yan and Qin general Bai Qi, to attack Zhao in the north and south at the same time in June. And the wolf cavalry led by the Xiongnu Shan Yu also rolled south, and the soldiers pointed to the Zhao State.

At this time, Ji Kang and his mother returned to Xiangping City, accompanied by Qin Song and several other doctors.
