Originally, the Youzhou government called for the planting of yams, which was to increase the food output under the administration and allow more people to fill their stomachs.

It's a pity that things are too much, as more and more land is reclaimed, according to the regulations, the newly reclaimed land must be planted with high-yield yam in the first three years, which is over, yam has been flooded in Youzhou, although Lv Peng invented yam cuisine, although Lv Peng invented yam wine, yam vermicelli, yam starch. But I can't stand too much, and Lu Peng, a person, is still resolutely and stubbornly implementing the policy he issued to himself to a kind of outrageous paranoia. Therefore, the consumption of yam, so that the price of the farmers' yam is guaranteed in a reasonable position, so that the yam will not rot into the hands of the people, so that the largest food consumption group, the army, has become half of the grain and half of the yam now.

In fact, the nutritional content of yam is much higher than the millet, corn and even wheat that everyone eats now, but every day like this, who do you say can stand it.

Gao Gan couldn't help but sigh together: "If we could eat yam every day in Yizhou, then Cao Cao could still help me?" ”

Xu Jie looked at Gao Gan's envious face and muttered in a low voice: "Don't be complacent, there are times when you cry." ”

At this time, a group of people in the valley rushed out, and the tall brother who took the lead said to Lu Peng from a distance: "The lord is here, let you wait for a long time, rude and rude, please come in quickly." ”

It was Blacksmith Zhao, now the leader of the Artisan Battalion.

Lu Peng stepped forward and grabbed Blacksmith Zhao's hand and looked it up and down, and couldn't help but smile dumbly after looking at it.

Blacksmith Zhao's face was covered with black and gray iron powder, and the original good craftsman uniform on his body was even bigger and smaller, densely packed, which would be just right if he wore it in summer.

Looking at the rough calloused hands again, Lu Peng couldn't help but feel distressed, and blamed in a low voice: "You are a manager, you are not a front-line worker." ”

Blacksmith Zhao's eyes were hot, and he turned to laugh and said: "I am this fate, I can't sit still in the shed at all, and at the same time, there are many places where I don't see it in person, I just don't worry." Looking at the huge team behind him, he hurriedly tied, "Ladies and gentlemen, hurry into the valley." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then followed Blacksmith Zhao to the valley.

Along the way, there are many sheds, workshops are everywhere, the more you go inside, the more strict the guard, the more frightened the senior cadres, and the more happy. What is shocking is that this is the key, the core secret, and I am happy that I can be brought here, which shows that Lu Peng has regarded himself as a brother's confidant.

Turning the last foot of the mountain, four large blast furnaces stationed in the sky in the distance are emitting yellow smoke, under this large blast furnace, there are countless small men, but in the winter, they are naked, trotting and busy beside the furnace that constantly emits heat.

Nearby, there were countless small wheelbarrows shuttling back and forth, pushing some stones into a huge mill driven by a huge and terrifying windmill, in which the stones that were poured into it were crushed into small pieces, and finally became stone powder, and some people pushed these stone powders under the water with small carts, and under the action of the river, the original yellow stone powder was washed into a swarthy powder, and then it was salvaged and spread out on the open space of the riverbed to dry, and then there was a group of people, Then the dried iron powder was pushed to the tall blast furnace with a small cart.

Wu Tao proudly introduced to the stunned demoteer: "This is the core of our base area, the steel plant. Looking at the various officials who were like idiots, he said again: "Under the innovation of the lord, our steel mill directly produces good steel, which is famous all over the world, and the unique Youzhou steel is produced here, and now, I can proudly say to my colleagues that the steel we produce is equivalent to the annual output of other iron mills in Dahan, or even more." ”

Looking at the huge blast furnace that the four had never seen before, the officers believed that what Wu Tao said was true, "If there is this steel, then all the equipment of our Lu family army is not all self-sufficient, no wonder, our soldiers are all equipped with excellent steel spears, snow swords, and sword and shield hands are also brilliant steel knives." ”

Lu Peng said proudly: "Not only that, after we are self-sufficient, we also export a large number of our sabers and guns. ”

Looking at the worried frustration, Lu Peng expressed relief in his heart, judging from this expression, Frustration, who has always been known for his loyalty, involuntarily, his mind has moved closer to himself.

Lu Peng smiled and explained to Fu Zhu: "Sir, don't worry too much, the weapons produced by our Savage Valley Iron and Steel Factory are not sold to the Central Plains, and all these weapons are sold to the grassland, and sold to those clans who have already purchased the grassland, so that they can use sharp weapons and the most sophisticated equipment to resist the invasion of Xianbei and other ethnic minorities and protect their territories on the grassland." ”

Hearing Lu Peng's explanation, he couldn't help but let out that breath. What he was actually worried about was that Lu Peng, who was famous for his greed for money and profits, sold these sophisticated weapons to the warlords of the Central Plains, which would not only aggravate the melee in the Central Plains, with more casualties, but most importantly, he would be cocooned and bound himself, and in the end, those opponents would use the weapons they sold to them against themselves, and it would be really embarrassing at that time.

"Still." Lu Peng suddenly raised his head high, and said loudly and confidently: "However, even if there are sophisticated weapons flowing to the Central Plains, but weapons are dead, talent is the first, we have bloody brothers, we have a steady stream of steel, iron and blood, therefore, we will be invincible." ”

Iron and blood, yes, as long as we have these two things, then who can defeat us.

Between the mountains and valleys, the huge buildings, the endless flow of people, and the hot air in the lungs, everything makes people feel an unstoppable force rolling and boiling here.

Facing his unique industrial base in Dahan, Lu Peng's heart is full of pride.

Now, I have adopted the blast furnace technology, coke technology, and iron powder technology that I have stolen by myself, and instead of ore, I use the iron powder technology that is directly refined and selected, and the steel produced can fully supply the increased military industry and living needs.

"The mood of the workers is still stable, how is the secrecy work?" Lu Peng looked at the chain of several people discharged like ants and asked with concern.

Blacksmith Zhao laughed, "Don't worry, the lord is relieved, except for those old men who control the core secrets, the old man, the others are all employment relations, and there is no craftsman's status, they come and go freely, and they are quite happy and stable with the money and food of the base, especially they all know that they are doing things for the base, in fact, they are doing things for themselves, where are you not careful, there is more lord and your test method, and the daily reward is there, who is not tempted, this one is one of money and food, and one is spiritual, so there is an efficiency of more than ten times faster than the original work for the imperial court." ”

"If there are any difficulties in production, let's talk about it, and we will find a way to solve it."

"There is nothing left in the process, everyone is proficient, and the output and quality have been stabilized." Blacksmith Zhao replied cautiously: "It's just that there is a shortage of manpower, and if it is expanded, it will not be possible." ”

Lu Peng smiled bitterly, how could he encounter a problem that he couldn't solve today, and shook his head helplessly: "There is no way to do this." Looking at the workers who lined up like ants from the mine here, then here to the riverside, and then to the blast furnace, he could only shake his head and say: "This is already a lot, if you recruit more manpower, it will affect the future spring ploughing, steel is important, but spring ploughing is more important." ”

"What about after the spring ploughing." Blacksmith Zhao asked cautiously with a look of hope on his face.

"After the spring ploughing, we have newly acquired Bingzhou and Yizhou, which have been devastated by several wars, and we need countless human and financial resources to carry out reconstruction and restoration.
