Liu Shun walked over with several craftsmen in charge of the steel furnace, and they all gave Cheng Yue a salute with great admiration.

A craftsman said: "Dadu, with this blast furnace, we can produce countless good steel, and Dadu's great cause can be expected." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Just say this once, don't say it again." ”

The craftsman was taken aback, and knowing that he had lost his words, he hurriedly lowered his head and stepped aside, not daring to speak again.

Cheng Yue took out a formula and handed it to Liu Shundao: "This is the formula of military steel, which is our core secret. There are not only gun steel, cannon steel, but also vehicle steel and marine steel. If you find another place to specialize in civil steel, you must also guard it. After a large number of blast furnaces were built elsewhere, it was no longer used for civil steel. The drawings of the blast furnace and the method of steelmaking must not be allowed to leak out, otherwise you will come to see you. ”

Cheng Yue's tone was unprecedentedly harsh, and Liu Shun, Wang Shiyuan and others were also trembling, carefully taking these pieces of paper, and not daring to look at them here, they immediately put them in their arms and bowed down to answer the order.

Cheng Yue said: "Use civilian steel to make various tools and sell them to make money, and then use the money earned to make guns, which can form a virtuous circle." I'll tell you how to do it in class, don't worry, it's a weapon, and quality is the top priority. There will be failures along the way, you have to record each failure in detail, this is valuable data, failure is the mother of success, don't be afraid of failure. ”

Zheng Baode couldn't help but ask: "Governor Dadu, I don't know when this military steel will be produced?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Soon, with this experience, plus I give them a lecture, within a month, you can see the primary military steel, which can be made into knives, which is the latest type of saber." Mr. Zhang, I want to give you a drawing, this is the drawing of the four-wheeled carriage, the steel and bearings are provided here, and you can build the rest. With this ** car, not only is it more convenient to travel, but the load capacity can also be greatly increased, which will inevitably have a great impetus to transportation, and the significance of our army is also very huge. ”

Li Fu took the drawings, looked at it carefully, only to see that the car was generous and beautiful, even the people who drove the car had a rain awning, and a small bell could hook up inside and outside, and couldn't help but admire: "Dadu, how many treasures do you have there, take them out, this carriage is really a good thing." ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "You have to come step by step, you can't be in a hurry, without good steel, you can't build a good carriage." Don't worry, Lord Zhang, I have good things, and your work can't be done. ”

As he spoke, a craftsman came over with a freshly made kitchen knife and wanted to present it to Cheng Yue. Totoku hurriedly stopped, took the kitchen knife from his hand, and handed it to Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue couldn't help but admire it when he saw it.

The craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty is really exquisite, and in such a short period of time, this kitchen knife has been beaten quite exquisitely. It's unusually sharp, much stronger than the knife you used to cook. So he smiled and said, "Yes, good craftsmanship, I accepted it." Thank you very much, master. After saying that, he clasped his fists and saluted.

When the craftsman saw Cheng Yue saluting him, he was so excited that tears rolled down, and he hurriedly knelt down to return the salute, but was picked up by Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue said: "You give me this big gift, I can't repay it, so let's do you have a son?" If you don't dislike it, send it to our army and make me a personal soldier, how about it? ”

The craftsman was overjoyed and said, "Dadu, I don't have a son, but I have a daughter, but unfortunately she looks average, and I just hope to be a maid for Dadu." ”

Cheng Yue said: "Okay, I'm going to Lin'an in a few days, and it just so happens that there are people in the house, so let her be a maid, the salary will not be less than yours, can you rest assured?" ”

The craftsman nodded like pounding garlic and said, "It is said that most of the governors are decent, so why should the villain be worried?" If the Metropolitan Governor can take a fancy to the little girl, it will also be her blessing. In fact, the villain also has selfish intentions and does not dare to hide it from the governor. ”

Cheng Yue became interested and asked, "Tell me, what is your selfishness?" ”

The craftsman said with a smile: "The villain heard that the food at the home of the Metropolitan Governor is very good, and he really wants his daughter to learn, and after marrying in the future, the in-laws will definitely like it." There is a craft in his hand, and he will also make a living in the future. ”

Cheng Yue couldn't help laughing and said, "So you made a kitchen knife for me?" What a good means! What a scheming. ”

When the craftsman heard Cheng Yue say this, he was so frightened that he knelt down again, and said hurriedly: "The villain will never dare to play tricks in front of the Dadu Governor, and the villain will not dare to deceive the Dadu Governor." ”

Cheng Yue had no choice but to help him up again and said, "Don't be scared by what I say." It's good that you don't hide it from me. I'm praising you, not scolding you. Okay, just let your daughter help out in my kitchen in the future. Where is it wrong for parents to plan for their children without harming others and benefiting themselves? But I want to ask you, how do you know that my cooking at home is delicious? ”

The craftsman glanced at Wang Shiyuan a little nervously, and said, "Back to the Metropolitan Governor, I once heard Commander Wang muttered during the meal, saying that I don't know when I will be able to eat the food of the Metropolitan Governor's family, and that is the delicacy of the world." ”

"Oh?" Cheng Yue's face sank suddenly, and the faces of the generals also changed. When Wang Shiyuan saw it, he knelt on the ground with a pale face, and didn't dare to raise his head and said: "My subordinates are guilty, please punish most of them." ”

Liu Shun also hurriedly knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

The craftsman didn't expect this matter to be so serious, and he was stunned for a while, and he froze there and didn't dare to move.

The generals did not dare to speak. To know that this matter can be big or small, it all depends on how Cheng Yue views this matter.

Cheng Yue walked in front of Wang Shiyuan, Wang Shiyuan saw Cheng Yue's shoe tips, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Cheng Yue sighed, helped Wang Shiyuan and Liu Shun up, and said, "This matter is not a big deal, you don't have to blame yourself so much." ”

He said to Wang Shiyuan again: "I didn't plan to hide this matter, so I said it." But it's a lesson, and if you accidentally say something about confidentiality, I can't protect you. You are the commander of the army, Liu Shun and I both have high hopes for you, you have to be careful not to let us down. You don't blame this person, if it weren't for him, it would be too late to regret it when something big happened to you in the future. ”

Wang Shiyuan finally let go of the big stone in his heart, and replied yes repeatedly, deeply regretful.

Cheng Yue said to the generals again: "I hope everyone will take this matter as a warning, the Yuan Dynasty has arranged many spies around our army, and even such people may appear within our army." If you are not careful, you may inadvertently leak confidential things. A single leak of a secret can undo the efforts of countless of our people, and may even reverse the outcome of the war. I have never hidden anything from you, and you must also cheer up. The conclusion of peace with the Yuan army was not the end of peace, but the beginning of a new war. This war is not a sword or sword, but it is more dangerous. Everyone, please be careful. ”

All the generals were solemnly ordered, and there was no longer any thought of relaxing.

Cheng Yue patted Wang Shiyuan and said: "If you want to eat, just say it, I'll fry a few dishes in the evening, and give you a taste, I'm far away, I have wronged you." ”

Wang Shiyuan was ashamed, moved and surprised, and said busily: "As long as the Metropolitan Governor does not suspect his subordinates of misconduct, it is a great grace, and he does not dare to trouble the Metropolitan Governor." ”

Cheng Yue shrugged and said, "If you don't eat it, forget it, do I like to do it very much?" ”

Liu Shun glared at Wang Shiyuan and said, "Dadu Governor, this kid doesn't mean this, Dadu Governor, you rarely come here, but we have to wait for it." To tell you the truth, I also made a set of the same set where the Metropolitan Governor made kitchenware, and I wanted to figure out how to fry it, but I still didn't know the essentials, and I asked the Metropolitan Governor to teach me. ”

Cheng Yue pointed at Liu Shun and said with a smile: "A group of foodies." ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Because Cheng Yue was going to stay here for a few days this time, he also brought some MSG over, which was just right to use.

Since it was getting dark, Cheng Yue simply went into the kitchen, fried a few dishes, and had a dinner with the generals. Liu Shun, Wang Shiyuan and others finally ate the legendary private dishes of the Dadu Governor, and the flavor was really good, and they had never tasted it. was so excited that he patted Xie Ruji and the others: "No wonder you refuse to leave the camp, I don't want to." ”

The generals laughed and dispersed.

The next day, Cheng Yue began to give lectures to the generals and selected craftsmen, which involved a lot of knowledge in physics and chemistry, because most of them had no foundation, and they had to learn Arabic numerals and English letters at the same time, so they spoke more slowly. Cheng Yue is not in a hurry, the most important thing is to understand. Fortunately, these selected craftsmen are all coarse and proficient, and they are all shrewd and capable, which finally makes Cheng Yue less tired.

For a few days, Cheng Yue almost regarded this place as a school, and the civil and military forces seemed to have returned to the days of daily classes in their childhood, learning those new knowledge that surprised them infinitely with Cheng Yue. They had a lot of doubts in their lives before, and they were answered. This makes everyone more energetic, and they are all fully engaged in learning, and they are happy like a group of children. Angel, Cheng Pengfei, Ma Fu and others worked extra hard, for fear that they would be thrown too far.

Li Fu and others' curiosity was stimulated, almost forgetting to sleep and eat, in addition to listening to lectures every day, that is, writing and painting on paper, seeing Cheng Yue asked various questions, but also let Cheng Yue see the hard work and hard work of ancient readers.

If they had been asked to learn these things before, they would have raised a lot of questions, but now they see Cheng Yue smelting steel easily, and hear Cheng Yue describe to them many things that they yearn for, and they all study them seriously, otherwise they will make things and they don't know what is going on, which is too embarrassing.
