Fang Huanting looked at the character image that Abu drew that he thought was cute, and couldn't care about being reserved anymore, covering her mouth with one hand and supporting Yun Niang with the other, she couldn't help laughing: "This ...... Do you think such characters are cute? Hahaha...... Laughed at me. ”

After Yun Niang saw the characters painted by Abu, she couldn't help but quip: "What are you drawing, dry, like a ghost drawing." ”

Abu couldn't help but have a fever on his face, and I recognized it without artistic cells, but I don't want to make fun of people like this, I just need to be able to express the essence of my thoughts clearly.

So he looked at Fang Huanting, who was still laughing there and was about to break out, coughed deliberately, and said, "It doesn't matter if my painting is good or not, but do you understand what I mean?"

There is only one key point, which is to draw quickly, while taking into account the beauty, if the beauty is not easy to achieve, you can use more exaggerated techniques to highlight the key points. ”

Fang Huanting finally stopped laughing, her face was flushed with laughter, and tears were in her eyes. She took the pen from Abu's hand and said, "Got it, got it, I'll draw it, and see if that's what it means." ”

As she spoke, she drew on the paper casually, brushed a few strokes, and a cute little girl had jumped on the paper.

This is a freehand painting, with a few brushstrokes, it outlines a little girl, holding a big apple in both hands, her eyes narrowed happily, her mouth smiling together, the lines are concise, and the characters are expressive. In the words of later generations, that's really cute, don't want it.

Abu and Yun Niang were praised again and again when they watched it, and Yun Niang preemptively said: "Wan Ting's painting skills are really brilliant and ingenious, just give me this painting, how about it?" ”

Fang Huanting looked very embarrassed, and said to Yun Niang: "Where did you take it, if my sister wants to paint, I'll paint a better one for my sister in Ming'er." ”

"No, no, this one is good, I want this." Yun Niang hurriedly stopped her.

Abu interjected next to him: "A master is a master, a genius is not a genius, that's what I mean, so that we can increase the speed of painting, and we can start the next plan." ”

Fang Huanting asked curiously: "It's true that the speed of painting this kind of painting can be improved a lot, but there is nothing surprising about it." ”

"Haha, you see, I'm going to publish the more interesting stories that I will tell you and distribute them to children, and at the same time add simple dialogues and illustrations on each page, so that it will be more attractive to children.

If you do it all, it will undoubtedly be a lot of work, but if you use this method, you can greatly improve the speed of painting, and the character style is more popular with children. ”

"Will this work?" Fang Huanting was a little skeptical of Abu's idea.

"Haha, don't worry, as long as we make it, I promise it will definitely be a big hit."

"Okay, then I'll try it first."

"When the time comes, I will ask Mr. Wang Daoming Wang to sort out the outline of the story, and then you can draw according to the outline plot."

After the discussion was over, Fang Huanting got up and said goodbye, and a plan that would make the world crazy in the future was decided.

In April, the long-delayed spring breeze finally crossed the valley, the trees began to bud, and the green grass began to turn green; The young girls also took off their thick skirts, revealing their vibrant curves, adding to the beautiful scenery of the gray valley.

Our Comrade Wei Yong finally threw away his crutches and was able to walk slowly, except for walking more slowly and having a little more difficulty when lifting his right leg, and other activities were basically the same as those of normal people.

Wei Yong was very excited, this was tantamount to adding another life to himself, he ran directly to Abu at that time, and said that he had nothing to thank him, so just kowtow a few times.

In the end, he was stopped by Abu and said that if you want to thank me, you can go and practice those little ones. The previous coaches were too soft-hearted, and they didn't take charge of the troops! Look at the idle ones some time ago, and net out some moths.

Wei Yong took the order, so every morning, as soon as the sky was bright, everyone could see him carrying a stick in his hand, following behind a group of young people who were crying wolves, shouting loudly, rain or shine.

If anyone falls behind or doesn't listen to orders, he will do it all at once, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman.

When some young people, with bruised scars, went to complain to their parents, how Wei Yong abused them, how he beat them with a stick.

Unexpectedly, the reaction of the parents was surprisingly unanimous: it is not a bad thing to suffer some hardships when you are young, and you will be a young man soon, can't you even stand this pain, and if you don't make mistakes, he can whip you casually?

Some of the girls were coquettish and cried and said that you have no sympathy, I was beaten, and you are still gloating; Are you my own mother?

But this kind of crying still didn't help, and the parents at most helped with massage and massage, and rejuvenated their muscles and bones.

Slowly, there are fewer people complaining about being tired, the messy team is gradually tidying up, and everyone's eyes are more cold and solemn, which is the overall cohesion and combat effectiveness are improving.

Even if the weight was increasing in turn, everyone gritted their teeth and persevered, they knew that even if they pleaded, it was useless, and they reported a kind of hostility, and they privately called Wei Yong "lame instructor".

Wei Yong was not only angry when he knew it, but smiled very happily: "This is not bad, my lame leg is the actual situation, but I have never been a general, I didn't expect that I was promoted in their mouths, hahaha." ”

The young men and women who learned the situation were about to run away, but they were helpless, so they could only curse him in a circle in private.

At the beginning of May, after more than a month of hard work, under the guidance of Fang Zhengyi and the concerted efforts of the big guys, the water drain was basically completed, and the site was located on the side of the Tianshan Mountain and next to the big waterfall.

Together, they also built a reservoir upstream, which not only reserves some domestic water for the dry season, but also increases the impact of the water flow.

Abu praised Fang Zhengyi's design, not because he was from a family, and he definitely couldn't do such a thing.

As for the materials, Fang Zhengyi and Abu agreed with the idea of building a wooden water drain first, and then gradually transforming it into a stronger metal structure after a large amount of steel was produced.

The blower is relatively simple, which is equivalent to enlarging the previous bellows, and under the suggestion of Fang Zhengyi, the bellows are directly made into two, and the middle is connected by a tie rod. In this way, under the power of the water drain and the reciprocating of the tie rod, the air in the bellows can be compressed into the air duct, which improves the air intake.

With enough wind, it can carry enough oxygen, and the coke can burn more fully, which in turn can reach a higher temperature.

In terms of improving the iron-making process, Abu personally took charge of the work and planned it carefully. It is even stricter than the requirements of the first manufacture of soda ash.

Abu knows that a large amount of high-quality steel is the foundation of his life, and in the process of making steel, the temperature can be as high as 15600 degrees, and there is no room for sloppiness.

The waste asphalt left in the process of manufacturing soda ash in the past finally came in handy, first by Li Baotian to produce a large number of dolomite bricks, and the process of building the blast furnace started step by step.

Fang Zhengyi has always been by Abu's side, although he is also from a family in this regard, and he is familiar with most of the operation procedures, but some of Abu's arrangements and arrangements in the process of work still make him deeply admired and surprised from time to time.

No matter how big or small, Abu can take it into account and implement the norms, and he deeply doubts that this young man, who is only in his twenties, has really been engaged in iron-making before.

But looking at his age, even if he starts learning in his mother's womb, the time is not right, this can only be attributed to being born and knowing, belonging to the category of genius and the like.

By the end of May, all the preparations were in place, and in the process of making fire, feeding, and refining, everyone's heart was lifted, everyone's face was tense, and no one had a bottom in their hearts without seeing the final result.

When the first furnace of hot, orange molten iron flowed out to the pre-set cooling tank and slowly turned into a gray-brown piece of iron, everyone erupted in earth-shattering cheers, and the excitement was overflowing.

Bai Boda kept patting the head of the iron head, tears of joy flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes, and he didn't bother to wipe it, he knew that the days of him and his son hammering and calcining iron in the future were over.

According to Mr. Abu, as long as the assembly line is slowly improved in the future, the hot molten iron will be turned into steel with different properties under the appropriate ratio of various elements, and tools, equipment, accessories, and even weapons of different shapes can be produced according to molds for different purposes.

As soon as this matter was settled, Abu handed over the matters to Fang Zhengyi and Bai Boda, and asked them to discuss and slowly improve; At the same time, you can find Liu Yuanlu to discuss how to increase or decrease the content of carbon and other elements.

The inn has also been completed, and some young people have been removed from the valley and have begun to operate on a trial basis. The hotel has expanded four or five times compared to the previous scale, and a two-story super hotel is presented in front of everyone.

The walls were made of clay and thatch, more than a man high, and were topped with sharpened wood, which was sturdy and durable.

Small saplings have been planted inside and outside the walls, pumping tender green leaves, and the smooth pavement is tamped with stones and coarse sand, and the road is lined with neat trees, which is pleasing to the eye.

The house is even more exaggerated, all the windows are installed with bright glass, the sun's rays can shine directly in, and all the rooms in the house are painted with white plaster, which makes it look more spacious and bright.

All the staff of the inn, both men and women, were dressed in the same way, and although they were all gray cloth clothes, the uniform attire and neat movements still gave people a strong sense of shock, even in the well-disciplined regular army.

When Wen Chu came to the newly built hotel for the first time, his eyeballs almost fell out, which was too extravagant and wasteful. In a wealthy family, Liuli, which was observed and played by some princes and nobles, actually let Abu, a loser, install it on the window, but not to mention, this effect is ...... He loves it!
