(Here, solemnly, formally, and from the bottom of my heart, thank you to Tianlanxiao, to be honest, I can hardly hold on to it at the worst time, it is your continuous support that Kirin Coco has persevered to this day, at that time Kirin Coco said that writing this book for the right person, as long as one person is still reading, Kirin Coco will stick to the end.) Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info to now, five months, 4367 hits, 1083 recommended votes, fans 8, reward 2 - Xuan Xuan Air Tunnel, monthly pass 2 - Tian Lan Xiao shot is two, this is the first monthly pass of Kirin Coco, although the results are very miserable, but it doesn't matter, for Tian Lan Xiao, for the Xuan Qi Air Tunnel, for the brothers who have been paying attention to and supporting Kirin Coco, and for themselves, this life has finally insisted on doing one thing rain or shine for a full five months, and will continue to persist rain or shine, Kirin Coco must be dead to the end.

Sincerely apologize, I really want to insist on doubling the update every day, but I tried it, but I really can't do it. Historical novels are not easy to write, it takes too much brains, and I'm sorry for everyone if you simply pile up the number of words without quality. I have to go to work every day to earn money to support my family, after all, I can't even drink the northwest wind by relying on code words, so I can't guarantee the writing time, and it's already my limit. But 2000 words a day continue to be more and more must be done, thank you friends. Open this paragraph, the text is more than two thousand, and it is not cheating and tricking. ）

Talking about the bank, Mu Jiu gushed endlessly, his mouth was like a river, and the calm and silent just now were like two people: "There are no more than three kinds of materials for building farm tools and weapons, pig iron, wrought iron and steel, but pig iron is brittle, wrought iron is soft, and the objects that are beaten out cannot be used, only steel is the best material, making farm tools is durable, and fighting weapons are extremely sharp." ”

Yang Ke nodded, he understood that the main difference between these three materials is the carbon content, the carbon content of more than 2% is called pig iron, the carbon content is less than 0.05% is called wrought iron, and the carbon content of 0.05%-2% of the iron is called steel. Pig iron can only be used as a raw material, although it is hard, but it will break when touched, wrought iron will not break, but it is soft and easy to bend, and only steel is a qualified raw material: "Old man, is there a good way to make steel, but also energy?" ”

Mu Jiu said: "In the old days, charcoal was used as fuel at the earliest, and iron ore was refined in the furnace, and when the furnace was cold, it was taken out to make iron. The texture of block iron is soft and there are many impurities, which is wrought iron. Then use a block of ironmaking as raw material, heat it in a carbon fire, and then forge, remove impurities and then heat it with a carbon fire, so that it is beaten again and again, until there are no impurities, and then the objects of 100 steels can be beaten. However, this method is time-consuming, and secondly, it depends on the master's experience and eyesight, there is no way to save effort, there is no three or five years of hard training, and there is no way to control the furnace, so as Hou Ye said, it is not easy to make a large number of objects that make hundreds of steel. ”

"Is there any other way to solve this problem?"

Mu Jiu pondered for a moment and said: "It is said in the ancient books that the engineer smelts the stone, asks the iron to be burned and smelted, and then makes the good work ten thousand forges, and it becomes Moyeye." In fact, what Wan Forging said is a good method, but the specific method is not recorded. I heard Xiao Lao'er's grandfather say that there was a method in the previous dynasty, which did not need to be forged, but could be trained by frying, but this method was also lost. ”

Yang Ke knew that what Mu Jiu said was actually the method of frying steel, and it was rare for him to be a craftsman who could memorize ancient books, and it seemed that Tao Kan said that he was literate. This method no longer only relies on forging, but improves the smelting furnace, material, and process, and fires the purest material possible, which greatly saves the forging time and makes mass production possible. You must know that the army equipment in the Jin Dynasty is far from the era after the Tang Dynasty, when the main elite and the commander-in-chief generals had sophisticated weapons, and many ordinary soldiers even went into battle with wooden weapons to kill the enemy. It turned out that Yang Ke couldn't understand why those fierce generals in the Three Kingdoms could kill in and out of a million troops with a weapon, and only after being immersed in the scene did he understand that a person with a steel weapon and a group of people with sticks confronted each other, of course, it could be a hundred. It's just that the manufacture of this steel weapon is not easy, and it is impossible to use it as a standard equipment.

"Old man, one of the big things I'm talking about is whether you can find this way? Can you give it a try? ”

"It's a good try, but whether it can work or not, the little old man doesn't know the bottom in his heart, and there is that this kind of trial method needs to build a furnace, and it takes a lot of people to 。。。。。。."

Before Mu Jiu's words fell, Yang Ke immediately said: "Old man, build a furnace, purchase iron ore, what utensils do you need to purchase, although you open a bill for procurement, all the expenses will be paid by me, and the people who come are all voluntary, and the wages will be paid, and you have the final say on how much wages you pay, but at least it must be several times the income of these craftsmen now, and there will be brave men under the heavy reward, you just have to choose the most convenient person." As for the elderly, according to the county lord's salary, your whole family can come to the construction site, and you will arrange what work to do. It doesn't matter if you can't do it, take your time, and when you find a way, when you'll finish it. What do you think? ’

When Mu Jiuyi heard this, he almost doubted his ears, not to mention anything else, holding the county master's money, this is something that he, a small citizen of Shengdou, would never dare to think about in his life, not to mention that the livelihood of the family has been solved, and it can also benefit the township, he immediately stood up, his face turned red: "With the words of the Hou Ye, even if the little old man puts his life into it, he will do this thing." ”

Yang Ke waved his hand with a smile and motioned for Mu Jiu to sit down and speak: "Old man, it's serious." In addition, I also have a suggestion, it is better to build this workshop near the water, it is much less labor-saving to use water wheels to make power than manpower, and the construction period is also short, and the output is much higher. ”

"Good way, this is a good way, Hou Ye is really an expert, but in this way, the money spent is like running water。。。。。" When Mu Jiu heard this suggestion, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, the craftsmen together, although interlaced, but sometimes all the laws return to the sect, so he can understand it at one point, if the water wheel drives the water hammer forging, the labor saved and the increased output are completely the same as the pure artificial production. But building a waterwheel is not a small investment, at that time, if you can afford to build a waterwheel, you can afford to drive a mill and an oil mill, you can be regarded as a rich man, and some even gather the strength of the whole village to afford to repair it, and the waterwheel of iron is obviously not one or two can solve the problem, in Mu Jiu's eyes, the amount of money that needs to be spent is simply astronomical, so there is this worry.

"Don't worry about money, the elderly might as well look farther, this workshop is done, and the money spent can be earned back a hundredfold and a thousand times. At that time, the villagers of this iron household camp will be able to live the life of a rich and noble family. Speaking of this, Yang Ke took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Mu Jiu. Mu Jiu took it and looked at it, it was a note of some graphics and words, some strange shapes, and he couldn't help but show doubts when he saw the utensils he had never seen.

Yang Ke explained: "You know how to read and write, it is easy to do, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, these are some of the tools I pondered, specially used to do processing and production, you always refer to it, to see if there is any use." In fact, this booklet was drawn by Yang Ke according to some memories of his previous life, such as tongs, files, tapers, screws, etc., and he explained the role of these things to Mu Jiu one by one, Mu Jiu was an expert, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became. The manufacture of utensils is nothing more than raw materials, processes, designs, and tools. With these tools, many of the designs that could not be realized in the process became easy, and I couldn't help but admire the young Hou Ye of this pedantic celestial man: "Hou Ye Mo is not a fairy to give birth, and he actually came up with these good methods, but the little old man has a puzzle, how noble is your status, how can you know everything about the livelihood of the craftsman?" ’

Yang Ke smiled faintly: "Who said that the artisan family is not in the stream, I came to Tiehuying to visit the old man in person this time, just to tell the craftsmen in Huayin City that being a craftsman can be as worry-free as food and clothing, and you can raise your eyebrows." If you have done this, I will ask for the knighthood of the imperial court for you. ”

Mu Jiu's eyes blinked quickly, and he looked at Yang Ke blankly, the craftsman can also get the knighthood of the imperial court, which is something that his ancestors have never dreamed of.
