Chapter 274

When the son of the cow steward saw the coming boat, his expression was very strange.

Compared with the old man Wang who was dressed relatively thin and wrapped tightly because he was wearing a thin inside, with a black fur coat, shrunken head and head like a blind bear, dressed in a snow-white fox fur, Liu Yiyi and Master Li's eyebrows were picturesque, charming and moving, just like two fox spirits squatting next to a mountain carving.

"Why are you stupid, I said Maverick, how is the business during this time?" Wang Yang saw this buddy's stunned expression staring at the beautiful girl beside him, and stood in front of the cow steward's son in a very unbeautiful mood and shouted.

“…… Small, uh, I'm sorry, the little one accidentally wandered, the owner, you hurry up and get in the car, it's too cold, and there is still a way from here to our workshop. Niu Dacai, who was much older than Wang Yang, rolled his eyes helplessly and hurriedly led the way.

After a short period of effort, Wang Yang greeted the craftsmen and masters very kindly, and his eyes fell on the graduate.

The little young man still had some ink marks on his cheeks, and stood in front of Wang Yang with some fear.

"How? Are you still used to coming here? Wang Yang asked with a smile at this young man who had left home thousands of miles away to find a living.

"Thank you for your concern, it's good, the teachers are very small." Graduation smiled innocently and replied.

"The owner, this kid is very good, don't talk about his young age, but he can endure hardships in doing things, and he knows the doorway of this printing workshop no more than us old and decrepit, especially the hand carver, it is really not bad." An old craftsman in his fifties next to him said with a smile.

"Well, that's good, by the way, whether that machine can still be used now, I think the water volume of this Bianhe River seems to be a little smaller than before." After nodding with satisfaction, Wang Yang asked the old craftsman.

"Yes, it's not much different from before, to be honest, you're really amazing, with this thing, we old guys don't know how much effort we have saved.

In the past, after a day of tinkering, you could print about 1,000 pages, but with this thing, at the end of the day, 3,000 pages are no problem. When the old craftsman mentioned the hydraulic printing press, his eyes lit up amazingly, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Wang Yang.

After Wang Yang smiled and chatted a few more words, he went straight to the room where the hydraulic printing machine was installed, where four craftsmen were busy, and the hydraulic printing machine kept moving back and forth.

Under the operation of the printing press, the clean and white rice paper will be printed with the handwriting of the whole plate, and then the two craftsmen will uncover the rice paper and put it aside as quickly as possible......

"Master, you also made this thing that can move on its own?" Master Li widened his smart eyes, and his pretty face was full of disbelief.

"Of course, who else but me?" Wang Yang raised his eyebrows at Master Li proudly and said. And Liu Yiyi looked at the machine a little stunned and was silent for a long time.

This made Wang Yang couldn't help but step forward curiously, sniffing the virgin fragrance of orchid and musk exuded from Liu Yiyi's body. "What are you doing?"

"The slave family only knew that the waterwheel could be used to water the fields or mill rice, but they really didn't know that it could be used for this ......," Liu Yiyi shook her head in disbelief and said.

"Of course, it can be more than that, whether it is used for printing, or for weaving, or a lot of things that need to be done repeatedly, you can hand it over to this hydraulic machine." Wang Yang looked at this tall machine and was very pleased.

Although this is the first time to invent and create in a feudal society, this hydraulic machine seems rudimentary and crude. However, its effectiveness has proved to Wang Yang and the craftsmen of the printing workshop that its ability is worthy of its cost and cost.

"Is it as exaggerated as you say?" Liu Yiyi couldn't help but glance at Wang Yang and said softly. "It's really hot to say you're fat, give you what you can do."

"I'm really just telling the truth, I don't mean to fool you in the slightest, forget it, believe it or not, you will know in the future that one day, human and animal power will be replaced by similar or more advanced machinery." Wang Yang sniffed, ignoring Miss Liu's taunt.

At this moment, he is like a prophet who is at least ten steps ahead of the entire dynasty, but the problem is that those who are one step ahead are crazy, not to mention that he is ten steps ahead, so outside of his spiritual realm, he has far exceeded the peak that people in this era can imagine.

"Master, if that's the case, won't we have nothing to do?" Master Li, a good girl, is worthy of being the loyal maid of Master Wang, although she doesn't understand Wang Yang's thinking, it doesn't prevent her from thinking about the future.

"Who's to say no? There are still a lot of things that need to be done by human beings, but this kind of philosophical-like question does not need to be considered. What kind of calf steward, did you get the kind of lead and tin ingot that you asked you to get last time? Wang Yang turned his head and asked the calf steward.

"I've got it, I'll get it for you." The cow steward walked briskly towards the house next to him, and after a short time, he came with great difficulty carrying a small wooden box.

After opening it, there were several large pieces of metal ingots with a faint metallic luster, and the cow steward took out a metal ingot from the inside and handed it to Wang Yang, while explaining. "This kind of lead, tin, and antimony will melt away as long as it is baked on a charcoal fire for ten or so breaths, I don't know if it meets your requirements."

"It can melt in a few breaths...... Yes, but this amount is really too small, I think it is less than fifty catties here, you can buy five hundred catties of metal ingots according to this ratio, and it should be about the same. Wang Yang held it in his hand, a dead thing, after all, lead is a heavy metal, and it is strange if it does not sink. It will melt away after ten breaths of effort, which is originally the characteristic of lead-tin alloy, which is very in line with Wang Yang's requirements.

"Five hundred catties, I said the owner, it's okay to ask for so much, but the question is, why do you want this thing?" Steward Niu looked at Wang Yang with a confused expression, he thought that Wang Yang wanted this kind of thing to make some kind of gadget, but if it was five hundred catties, it would definitely be a big lump, and he really didn't understand why Wang Yang wanted this kind of thing.

"Of course, it's a tool for making printed books, by the way, who is the best carver in our workshop?" Wang Yang looked at Liu Yiyi and Master Li, who had come to the vicinity of the machinery to see the bustle, and lowered his voice to ask Niu Steward.

After thinking about it, the cow steward gave an affirmative answer. "Naturally, it's Lao Zhao Tou, by the way, there is also the new one called Graduation, that kid doesn't look young, but that one-handed carver, even Lao Zhao Tou praised that kid for being amazing."

"Okay, just the two of them, you go and call them over, I have something to do with them." Wang Yang thought about it and then said to the cow steward. "And where's the iron frame I brought last time? Bring it to me, and where is the good clay? ”

Soon, the anxious Graduate and Lao Zhao Tou came to Wang Yang, and they all looked at Wang Yang with some inexplicability, who was still looking at Wang Yang who was wearing a dozen or so iron cylinders with boxy holes in the middle with a long rope in his hand.
