Pu Yuan didn't see Ma Chao's eyes at all, but with a dagger and a long sword in his hand, he hurriedly trotted all the way and came straight to Ma Chao.

"Okay! Pu Yuan, he even dared to kill the master! Ma Chao looked at Pu Yuan's posture and didn't know why. And Pu Yuan's face was happy, but he was holding a sharp blade, such an abnormality had already made Han Ying and Yun'er stunned.

And Han Ying immediately made a decision, pushed Yun'er back away, pulled out the scimitar at his waist and twisted his body and rushed in front of Ma Chao. looked at Pu Yuan with an angry face, cautiously guarded.

"Pu Yuan, don't you want to rebel!" When Pu Yuan had already run to a very sensitive distance, Han Ying suddenly let out a coquettish voice.

And Pu Yuan was immediately stunned, lowered his head and saw the blade in his hand, and was at a loss. Fortunately, at this time, Ma Chao had already pushed Han Ying away slightly, and said to Pu Yuan: "What the hell is going on?" ”

While speaking, Ma Chao also gave Han Ying a grateful look, seeing that Han Ying was shy, and her cheeks were full of red clouds. And Yun'er admired it even more in her heart: the young master not only won Pu Yuan's loyalty and gratitude, but also ate Miss Han to death, and she was afraid that her heart would be tied to him, and she would not be able to get down...... Do you want to find a way to unite with Sister Yan, and resolutely can't let the young master go out to harm other young ladies again!

In the blink of an eye, Pu Yuan's side also reacted, with a grateful look in his eyes, and hurriedly explained to Ma Chao: "Young master, the arsenal has already created the Su Iron Knife you mentioned!" ”

"Su Iron Knife? What's that? When did I talk about that kind of thing? Ma Chao listened to Pu Yuan's surprise voice that could not be concealed, and asked with a puzzled expression.

This sentence immediately knocked out most of Pu Yuan's passion, and he said weakly: "Half a year ago, the young master told his subordinates that pig iron and wrought iron are practiced together, and after a few nights, they become steel...... With soft iron as the knife spine, bath with five animal urine, quenched with five animal fat......"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Chao gradually got an impression. I remember that when I first inspected the forge house, I seemed to have told Pu Yuan about this, but then the business of the arsenal became more and more and bigger, and I gradually forgot about it. I never thought that Pu Yuan, an iron master, had been silently experimenting for half a year.

"Su Iron Knife, really Su Iron Knife. Young Lord, look! Pu Yuan said, respectfully handing over the cold ring-headed knife.

Ma Chao was immediately attracted by the ring knife, the body of the knife was shining with a steel luster, sparkling, obviously the best steel. Especially in the almost a year of traveling, Ma Chao has seen a lot of iron weapons that are often rusty, and this steel weapon is really the first time he has seen it.

"Young Master, Su Tie Long Sword, look!" At this time, Pu Yuan cautiously handed over a long sword with flowing sword light.

Ma Chao took the long sword, only to see that the blade was thin, obviously extremely sharp, the sword aura was clear, and the sword body was slightly heavy. Could it be that this Pu Yuan has really mastered the method of filling steel, and can also smelt wrought iron into a sword body and refined steel into a sword blade?

"Is it really Sutetsu?" Ma Chao looked up and asked: This is impossible, impossible...... This is really awesome, spanning centuries of technology, and it can be achieved in two sentences by itself?

To tell the truth, Ma Chao was still in a dream at this time, and he had a tendency to disbelieve: you must know that the early appearance of this steel filling method is too profound than the influence of distilled spirits, roasted tea, papermaking and the like. In this way, he can really build a good steel weapon, and in the future, he can build a heavy cavalry and a steel Romanesque army......

It can be said that with this steel weapon, Ma Chao can even sweep the entire Han Dynasty and become the strongest soldier in Kyushu! What White Ear Army, what Danyang soldiers, what tiger and leopard horses, what Flying Bear Army, in front of Ma Jiajun, they are all scum!

"The young master can try it as much as he wants, and he will know the truth and falsehood." Seeing that Ma Chao still couldn't believe it, Pu Yuan said affirmatively, and then raised a scimitar, held it firmly with both hands, and lay it in the air. Then he said: "Please try the sword!" ”

Ma Chao recognized the scimitar, which was one of the fifty scimitars that Han Sui left for him when he first came to Fufeng County, and gave five to the arsenal for testing and reference. And the remaining forty-five, except for the three of them, Ma Dai, Chouge, and Pang De, were all locked in Han Feng's warehouse, offering them like treasures.

This Pu Yuan dared to test the sword with this sharp scimitar, doesn't that mean that the quality of the Su Iron Knife forged in the arsenal is still above it?

Ma Chao no longer hesitated, waved the long sword in his hand, and slashed down.

"Bell!" A crisp metal slash sounded suddenly, followed by "Clang! With a bang, the broken knife fell to the ground. Ma Chao was busy watching, only to see that the scimitar in Pu Yuan's hand was cut off by Qi Kou, but the long sword in his hand was intact, and the blade was not rolled.

Ma Chao planned to pick up a handful of his hair again, thinking about it and feeling painful. took advantage of Pu Yuan's inattention and pulled off a lock of his hair, which hurt so much that Pu Yuan wanted to cry without tears, and he didn't dare to scold. After that, I saw Ma Chao put the lock of hair on the blade of the sword, and with a gentle blow, the hair was broken in two.

After trying both weapons, Ma Chao was pleasantly surprised: "Sure enough, the arsenal has really made steel!" ”

Pu Yuan, Han Ying, and Yun'er looked at Ma Chao's surprised appearance, with a smile between their eyebrows.

After the ecstasy, Ma Chao gradually woke up from the surprise and asked, "When will this steel be tempered?" ”

"Report to the young master, two sharp weapons, today will be completed." Pu Yuan replied with a smile. The results of the work have been confirmed by Ma Chao, and Ma Chao is full of satisfaction in his heart.

"This steel smelting, weapon casting masterpiece, the arsenal thanks to Master Pu's planning! Thank you so much. Ma Chao thanked sincerely.

"Me?" Pu Yuan saw Ma Chao's bowed body, and was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "Young master, this is not the work of one person, the young master's ignition, Lord Han Feng's support, Zheng Hun's cooperation, and the continuous proposals and hard work of the craftsmen of the whole arsenal have exchanged for these two sharp weapons!" ”

"Okay, good, Master Pu is high-spirited, and Chao already knows." Ma Chao laughed and patted Pu Yuan's shoulder, flattering Pu Yuan, but then Ma Chao asked, "This craftsman also took the initiative to propose a plan?" Very good, very good! ”

"Young master, this is your credit!" Pu Yuan wondered and quickly explained.

During this time, Ma Chao focused on making money, and had no time to take care of anything else, and then winter came, thinking about people's livelihood. There was too much work at hand, so Ma Chao tried to forcibly indoctrinate Han Feng, Pu Yuan, and Zheng Hun in the management methods of his previous life in popular language for the research and development, proposals, rewards and punishments, and let the three of them vigorously promote it! What I didn't expect was that this result came so quickly, so fast that I was not mentally prepared.

"Young master, the establishment of the R&D center has fascinated many craftsmen. Those skilled craftsmen who had ideas continued to propose and contributed many inventions. Pu Yuan was stupid, and he couldn't understand it for a while, and finally just said: "The young master can go to the arsenal and take a look." ”

Indeed, the craftsmen who have been in the R&D center no longer have to repeat their work meaninglessly in the camp every day, and after being freed from heavy manual labor, they can concentrate on the study of new crafts.

The craftsmen who enter the R&D center are all senior craftsmen of the red copper level, who eat well, dress well, and can take off their affiliation when they have results, and even become officials. But in that place, I didn't have the skills to get in. For a time, the enthusiasm of the craftsmen was greatly improved, and everyone concentrated on tempering their own craftsmanship and was proud to enter the R&D center.

The R&D center couldn't get in, and Ma Chao didn't block the road. If the craftsmen have a good proposal and a breakthrough result after implementation, they can also get the same reward as the R&D craftsmen. Since the implementation of this system, small inventions and tricks of the arsenal have emerged one after another.

Listening to Pu Yuan's brain-searching and colorful inventions, Ma Chao gradually clarified his thoughts: "Management can also produce benefits, and management can promote technological innovation!" ”

"Let's go, go to the arsenal, anyway, I haven't been there for a long time. See what's changed inside! With that, Ma Chao went to the courtyard to lead the elephant dragon and went parallel to Pu Yuan. After thinking about it, he turned over and went back to the inner room to get a few drawings before continuing to walk: the production of stainless steel had already made Ma Chao advance his plan to build an invincible legion.

But Han Ying glanced at Yun'er proudly, took her rouge horse, and turned over. Yun'er, who can't ride a horse, can only stomp her feet in anger: I have to quickly pull Sister Yan over, she can't ride a horse, but the young master will definitely not take Sister Yan with her. And at that time, that Han Ying couldn't be arrogant......
