Thank you for the reward of Yu Ruoyun Ge L, add a more chapter

Xia Xun hurriedly followed, although he was not very accustomed to the words and actions of the Son of Heaven today, he was extremely excited in his heart, after all, the Dongguan Mansion that used to be idle and painful seemed to have a lot of things to do, there were more things, and there were naturally more people who needed it, and when the time came, there would be more people who asked for themselves, and the embarrassing position that he was often ignored would become important. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When I came to Zhongding Square, I saw the forbidden soldiers standing motionless with various weapons in their hands from a distance. Xia Xun felt very strange, why was he standing like this? He looked at Ji Dong who was following behind the Son of Heaven suspiciously.

Ji Dong smiled and said in a low voice: "The training program given by the Son of Heaven to the forbidden army, this seems to be called 'standing military posture'. ”

"Standing in a military stance?" Xia Xun shook his head and said, "What kind of project is this?" Why haven't you heard of it? ”

Ji Dong whispered: "The king has had all kinds of strange words and actions since he hit the bell, and no one can figure out how this happened. However, last time he told Mr. Bian Que that he was taught a lot of knowledge by an old fairy in a coma. ”

"That's it!" Xia Xun couldn't help but suddenly realize, and looked at the Son of Heaven walking briskly in front of him with admiration: "It's really worthy of being the son of heaven, there are gods to impart knowledge when he is unconscious, no wonder he can come up with such an economical way to build a house." ”

Coming to the middle of Zhongding Square, Ji Yan gestured with his hand: "This king plans to build some training facilities in this area. ”

"First, you have to ask the stonemason to make 300 stone piers, each stone pier is 30 to 50 catties, and you need to have a handle to facilitate grasping and extraction."

After Xia Xun should get down, Ji Yan continued: "Second, build two obstacle platforms with wood, two zhang wide and eight zhang high, within one foot thick, which must withstand climbing and climbing. ”

Ji Yan said and compared with Xia Xun, and after he understood, he said: "Third, make a horizontal barbed wire fence, within three feet in height, so that people can climb through it from below, with a length of at least ten zhang and a width of three zhang." ”

Xia Xunhu asked suspiciously: "What is the iron wire?" The old minister knew about iron, and he also knew iron ingots, iron bars, and iron sheets, but he had never heard of iron wire. ”

Ji Yan then remembered that the iron wire should not have appeared yet, because the production of iron wire is a kind of wire drawing process, and the craftsmanship of this era is estimated to be not so powerful. He thought for a while and said, "If there is no wire, let's put down the third item for the time being, Sikong will first complete the stone pier and the obstacle platform, it will take a few days?" ”

Xia Xun thought for a while and said, "It's going to be ten days!" ”

"Nope." Ji Yan couldn't question: "For three days at most, this king must see these things." ”

"If this happens, it may affect the progress of building houses next to Luoshui."

"There are more than 10,000 people who build houses, and you can send a few craftsmen to supervise and guide, how can it affect the progress?" Ji Yan looked at Xia Xun solemnly and said: "This king is now in a race against time, all decisions are well thought out, Aiqing must not hold back." ”

Xia Xun saw the demeanor of the Son of Heaven and knew that there was no room for negotiation, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.

"As for the matter of iron wire, after Xia Qing went back, he asked Dr. Si Jin to come to find this king, and he wanted to go to the gold and iron workshop with him to have a look, I believe that there must be a way to make iron wire. Go ahead! ”

"No." Xia Xun went in a hurry, and he had to do a good job of stone piers and obstacles in three days, and the time was very tight, so he couldn't help but be in a hurry.

After Xia Xun went, Ji Yan came to the side of the forbidden army team standing in a military posture, and at a glance, he couldn't help but be nameless. Not to mention the messy posture, there are still many people who hold their weapons on the ground to support their bodies.

"Ding Li." Ji Yan shouted. Ding Li, who was also standing in a military posture, immediately ran over after hearing this.

"See for yourself, what kind of bird is this standing in? Is this a military stance? You immediately have them stand up as I demonstrated. This king will give you a chance today, and if I see such a situation next time, I will receive forty military sticks first. Ji Yan paused for a moment and said, "After letting them stand, call the captains over." ”

Ding Li hurriedly called the law enforcement team, all rushed to the forbidden army, corrected their postures one by one, and it took a lot of effort to get them to stand up, and then brought ten pawn commanders to Ji Yan.

After seeing it, Ji Yan said in a loud voice: "In the future, you don't have to visit the training ground." Captains, take care of your own people, can't you see the crooked appearance just now? You can't punish these soldiers, do you? If this king sees this situation again in the future, this king will not be reluctant to punish you! ”

Everyone agreed loudly, and one of the pawn commanders said timidly and in a low voice: "Qi Qi my king, standing in a military posture for too long, don't talk about these soldiers, even our pawn commanders can't bear it!" ”

Ji Yan said coldly: "Training is to make people unbearable, otherwise is it still called training?" You are all mentally prepared that there will be more training programs in the future. If he faints because he can't bear it, the king can ask a doctor to treat him; However, as long as you don't faint, you must do it according to the standard, and if you don't follow the standard, you must be punished. You guys, you know? ”

"Understood."

"Be louder."

"Understood."

Ding Li and the guards went separately, Ji Yan planned to go back to the dormitory and think about the work arrangements for the next few days, a dark middle-aged man in his forties walked over quickly, and shouted from a distance: "Weichen Lin Tong, meet my king." ”

Ji Yan found that he didn't know this person, so he asked suspiciously, "Are you?" ”

"Wei Chenxi is the chief doctor of the Winter Official Mansion, and he heard that my king summoned him, so he hurried over."

"Oh, you're Dr. Skin." Ji Yan nodded and said, "Okay, it's very efficient." Let's go, take this king to the gold and iron workshop to have a look. ”

Lin Tong said with a hesitant face: "The gold and iron workshop is noisy and dirty, and it is really not suitable for me to go." If there is anything important, my king will hand it over to Wechen directly, and Wechen will definitely handle it properly. ”

"Okay?" Ji Yan shook his head and smiled: "Iron wires, iron nails, screws, springs, are you sure you can do them properly?" ”

"This ......" Lin Tong suddenly felt that he had been eliminated by the times! What is the situation when you hear these names and understand what they are, but they have never been produced before?

"Let's go, Lin Aiqing, take this king over and see if you can find a way to make these things."

The gold and iron workshop is in the west of the palace, covering a relatively wide area, surrounded by a tall courtyard wall, and the situation inside cannot be seen from the outside, it is estimated that it is for the need for secrecy, after all, ironmaking and ironmaking are very advanced processes in this era, and the craftsmen of various countries have spent a lot of effort to study, and must not let outsiders easily steal to learn.

The "gold" here is not the gold of later generations, but the synonym of copper, so the "gold text" of the Yin Shang era was not engraved on gold, but on bronze.

It was still far away from the Jintie Workshop, and he saw bursts of black smoke rising from the roof of the workshop, which made Ji Yan happy in his heart, he thought that this place was also deserted and idle!

"How many workers are there in this workshop at the moment?" Ji Yan asked Lin Tongdao beside him.

Lin Tong muttered: "There are more than ten goldsmiths, mainly to make some ornaments and utensils, there are six blacksmiths who make agricultural tools, four blacksmiths who make weapons, and the rest of the apprentices, Lifu and other nearly 100 people. ”

"So few craftsmen?" Ji Yan really can't imagine that such a big workshop has such a small number of people.

Lin Tong shook his head and said: "In recent years, the life of the Chinese people has become more and more poor, and the demand for gold has become less and less; The queen manages the harem, and in order to save money, there are also many restrictions on the production of gold, so there is a lot of loss of goldsmiths; The blacksmiths mainly make agricultural tools and weapons, and the demand is not large, so our Winter Official Mansion has also laid off some craftsmen. ”

Ji Yan nodded silently and followed Lin Tong into the workshop. The officials guarding the door were very surprised when they saw a large group of people walking in, but when they saw Dr. Si Jin shaking their heads slightly with them, they let them in directly. As soon as I walked into the workshop lobby, I heard the sound of clanging iron, and in the corner of the lobby, several workers were beating something on a platform shirtless, and their expressions were quite focused, and they didn't look at the group of people who came in.

Ji Yan walked over curiously, and found that they were beating a piece of iron, one person standing on the left and right, you beat me and I beat it very rhythmically, and each time I beat it, a deep mark was smashed on the iron bar, making the iron bar flatten. When a whole iron bar was beaten, the two people in charge of beating put down the hammer, pulled up the black rag on their shoulders and wiped it on their faces, the sweat was sucked away, but their faces were more flowery.

A person next to him picked up the iron with a clamp and put it into the stove on the side, and the person in charge of the bellows saw it, and quickly pulled it up, and with the whirring wind flow into the stove, the furnace fire burned violently, and the iron bar gradually turned red, and after a while, it turned red, and was clamped by the clamp and put on the calciner, and folded in half with the assistance of another clamp. The two hammers thrashed rhythmically again, and the broken pieces of iron merged with each other, gradually becoming a whole.

Lin Tong saw the concentration of the Son of Heaven and explained on the side: "This is a piece of iron tempering method. The iron that comes out of the furnace directly is called rough iron, which contains a lot of impurities, has poor hardness, and is easy to brittle. It is necessary to calcinate the blank iron at high temperature in a furnace and beat it repeatedly to remove impurities and obtain a piece of iron with sufficient hardness and toughness to produce excellent weapons or agricultural tools. ”

"Hmm!" Ji Yan nodded and said: "In the calcination process, the rough iron can be sucked in carbon, and the impurities can be removed when beaten, and the carbon content can reach a certain proportion to become a hundred refined steel." The wisdom of the working people is indeed infinite. ”

Lin Tong asked suspiciously: "Calcination inhalation of carbon?" What is carbon? ”

"Carbon, which is a very important thing in smelting, can regulate the hardness and toughness of iron, and if the composition is right, it can also get steel - a metal that is much harder than iron." Ji Yan explained: "The so-called 100 refined steel is actually through continuous forging, which not only removes impurities, but also allows the iron to quickly and fully absorb carbon particles. If we can produce steel, whether in terms of production or in terms of operations, we will definitely be a big step ahead of the major warring states. This will be our key breakthrough direction in the future, and Dr. Lin has to take it to heart! ”

"Steel?" Lin Tong was even more confused, "Weichen hasn't heard of it." ”

Ji Yan smiled: "Of course you haven't heard of it, because the word 'steel' doesn't exist yet!" It's actually iron with a fixed range of carbon, and this range," he thought for a moment, "seems to be between 0.04 and 2 percent, with more than 2 percent called pig iron and less than 0.04 percent called wrought iron." ”

Listening to the various heavenly statements of the Son of Heaven, Lin Tong was directly blind, and Leng didn't know how to interface on the spot.
