Look at the blue flame and listen to the strong sound of air currents.

Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Shiramei Crane brought the flame closer to a steel plate that had been prepared long ago.

After the flame spear in the hand of the white crane of a steel plate was cut, a one-foot-long hole was cut. "Shut down!" Bai Minghe let out a low snort, and after the flames stopped, Bai Minghe looked at his masterpiece and shook his head: "This one is not straight, and my hands are shaking." The main thing is that this spray gun is not good enough, it seems that it has to be specially made, and this craft needs to be practiced. ”

"My lord, this fire can be used for forging and welding."

"What is the use of you is to study, it is enough for the official to teach you to make this fire. People in the steel mill, you can try to blow steel, don't use air, use pure oxygen once. Of course, pay attention to safety during the test, and the temperature in the furnace may reach several thousand degrees at that moment. ”

"Thank you for your advice!" All the craftsmen gave a salute in unison.

Bai Minghe has already taught them too much, and after learning and digesting it, Daming's steel level can definitely go to a higher level.

On the same day, Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty moved to the Nanjing Shipyard.

The boat was separated by wooden planks, and no one was allowed to approach it. Fortunately, Huaiyu's steam engine is already a mature product that can be used, and now it only needs to modify the hull with some modifications.

The ship itself is a half-finished ship, but there is no mast yet, the position of the original mast has been dug up, a large chimney has been installed, but the white crane was driven out, sent to the field to lead the team to inspect the new crop breeding, the white crane only regarded it as a spring outing, took his wife and children, and set off with a large group of people.

Who is the busiest, it is Yu Qian.

Yu Qian, who is now a Taishi. The Ming Emperor was not in the palace, and the most powerful white-named crane in Nanjing was not in the city. Of course, even if the white crane is there, Yu Qian is also the kind who counts.

Sitting in the outer courtyard of the White Horse Pavilion, in the study of the white crane, Yu Qian ordered someone to make himself a pot of tea.

"Lord Yu, your study will be ready for two more days. Do you always read the dossier now, or in two days? A scribe asked, standing at the table.

"Take it, see it now! Bring them all. Yu Qian said as he tidied up the table, this ink, paper and inkstone always have to be placed according to his own habits, so it is easy to use. But the scribe stood there motionless, but he didn't ask a question, and said, "Master Yu, are you sure you bring it." I'm afraid it can't be placed here. ”

"A lot?" Yu Qian was surprised.

"In reply to your words, this dossier is divided into military, agricultural, industrial, commercial, and foreign according to categories. Miscellaneous six categories. According to the important Cheng dù, it is divided into five categories: red, orange, blue, blue, and white. Then it is divided into five categories: Hai Si Nei, Southern Liubu, Saishi, Wa Island, Little Luzon, Siam and others. You better pick one and look at it first, if you take them all, this room will be at least ten times bigger. Because Lord Bai has not been in Nanjing for a year, just the file recording this matter can fit ten rooms like this, and some of them have been handled, but I don't know if the handling is reasonable, and there are also a few carriages. Finally, there are a few more pieces to drag. I'm waiting for Lord Bai to come up with an idea, especially the regulations that allow the private sector to build their own steel mills. Always ask Lord Bai to take an idea, and list the detailed items before reporting to the court, and the court will give instructions! And that's ......"

The scribe spoke for a quarter of an hour.

Yu Qian heard that this was not embarrassing himself, but that there were so many things here in Nanjing.

First of all, to divide these files into so many categories. You can imagine how many people are working here. Not to mention reading a book, but listening to it once can exhaust people to death.

"So, how does Shira-naka Crane usually handle official business?" Yu Qian asked again.

"This little one can't guess that if Lord Bai is dealing with official business every day, there will be at least a hundred books a day. But I can always finish most of it in one morning. There will be instructions for each one. At first glance, the instructions were read in detail, and they were very pertinent, and the small ones thought that it would take more than a day to read the more than 100 dossiers. ”

"Let's take the red one first, about the content of the southern six parts."

After listening to Yu Qian's orders, the scribe went out.

Not long after, the scribe came with a few small officials, carrying four large boxes, and a bag in his hand.

"Lord Yu, there is nothing in this bag that has not been dealt with. The box was processed, but it was kept on file for inspection. ”

Yu Qian was also thinking while waiting, is this white crane so efficient?

This will see such a lot, Yu Qian said again: "Go and bring some of the official documents of the same kind that Bai Minghe has dealt with before, and this official will check one or two." ”

Yu Qian wants to see, no one can say no, this is the official business of the imperial court.

The things were brought quickly, and Yu Qian's whole person was surrounded in the Wen Jiàn pile, and it was estimated that he would not have to go out of the house for this day.

It was a white-named crane, sitting by the river fishing, occasionally asking about the progress of the land preparation and scaffolding over there, as for how deep to dig and how much to plant. These white cranes believe in the opinions of professional agronomists and simply come up with the characteristics of these crops. After the land was cleaned up in the past few days, the seeds from several boats on the side of Little Luzon were also pulled over, and they were planted together to breed and then talk.

Anyway, at least Shiramei Crane is also working.

Of course, there is also a kind of honorable person, and of course the most honorable person in the Ming Dynasty, at least in his own opinion, he is working.

The Ming Emperor also wore a cloth robe, not a gorgeous and ornate crown.

It's in the shipyard, Zhu Qiyu looks here and there, how it feels is very novel.

A few days later, the oars used in the boat were pulled over, which was to make a hole in each side of the boat, and then the shaft was fitted in, and then the oars were fitted again.

Zhu Qiyu stared at this oar for a long time, and suddenly said: "If this oar is bigger, can't it run faster." Can't we make it bigger? ”

The stewards here have half a word of nonsense, quickly kowtow, and then trott back to deliver the message. That means that the Ming Emperor decreed that this oar can be made bigger.

Okay, this is a chicken and dog jump in the steel mill. Re-select the materials, re-draw, and get ready to do it again.

But the people in the power shop didn't understand, and they didn't want to draw anymore.

"This size is calculated, you know what mechanics are, the strength is given by the steam engine, but it is transmitted to the water through the oars, is it useful to have a larger one? It will waste a lot of effort, but it will slow down the speed, not to mention that the bigger ones will affect the steering problem. ”

"This is the will of Long live!" The people at the steel mill have a tough attitude.

The people in the power workshop can't say that the people in the steel mill don't dare to say that the emperor's will will not be followed.

But to do it, it's absolutely nonsense.

The ten Ming craftsmen in the power workshop and the four Byzantine craftsmen discussed what to do, and they could only go to the book.

As a result, several craftsmen and stewards of the steel mill also thought that this was a mistake in the will of Banzai, and then ran to the shipyard with the fourteen people of the power workshop and knelt outside the door of the dock.

"Long live, the people of the power workshop and the steel workshop of the Xingshou Courtyard are kneeling outside, and they have many disputes on the way here."

"Let each of them send one man in, and I will hear what they are fighting for, and I will give them an idea." Zhu Qiyu didn't look back when he spoke, he was admiring the cornices added to the building on the deck, and the ship was even more beautiful. The craftsmen here were busy sweating profusely, for fear that the emperor would be dissatisfied in any way.

Soon, the representatives on both sides came in, and the craftsman of the power workshop immediately exclaimed when he saw the cornice: "The one who let the mess add this, this thing ......" The craftsman didn't finish speaking, Wei Shaoqing shouted angrily: "Shut up, this is long live let me add it." ”

Emperor Zhu Qiyu's face was dark, but he still suppressed his anger: "You talk about reason!" ”

"Wan, Wan......" The craftsman knelt on the ground, trembling with fright.

"If you are reasonable, you will not be guilty, and if you are unreasonable, I will blame you heavily." Zhu Qiyu was so angry that he added a cornice, and he was directly despised.

The master stammered, and finally made it clear.

Zhu Qiyu was blinded, and it was obvious that he was wrong. In order to prove that he was wrong, he also took a wooden board and tried it, and it seemed to be more strenuous to swing it sideways, which is the wind resistance. What I can understand is that it is difficult for Zhang Feng to walk, this cornice will make the boat run slower, and if it falls off in the case of strong winds, it will hurt people.

Zhu Qiyu was unhappy in his heart, and asked again: "So what are you arguing about?" ”

The craftsman explained that from mechanics, resistance in the water, to flexibility, in short, he told all his knowledge of physics, mechanics and other knowledge in one breath, anyway, the enlarged paddles would only be bad.

I felt uncomfortable, Zhu Qiyu understood that his ideas and construction were not only better for this ship, but were all redundant. Now it seems that if it weren't for its own troubles, the ship is estimated to progress faster. Wei Shaoqing reacted and said to the craftsman: "You heard it wrong." ”

"Banzai originally meant that the outer side guard of the oar could be longer to prevent people on the boat from accidentally touching it and being easily injured." Wei Shaoqing gestured, that is, the upper side guard plate was expanded half a foot outward, and the paddle was completely wrapped in the guard plate, but this would not affect anything at all.

Whether you heard it wrong or not, whether you misunderstood it or not.

Who dares to talk nonsense, quickly blame yourself, quickly admit your mistakes, and quickly go back and remake a guard.

The craftsmen were drenched with sweat all over their nervous bodies, and who dared to think about what this thing really was.

"Let them tear down the cornices, I think this ship is better than practicality and beauty." As the emperor, it is really not easy for Zhu Qiyu to admit his mistake once. In person, if this boat is not for Huaiyu, he will not admit it even if he is wrong.

Zhu Qiyu knew that Huaiyu might also know the mistakes that these craftsmen saw. In case Huaiyu complains, his face as a brother is not good-looking. Even if you don't learn and don't know how to do it, your face will be embarrassed. (To be continued......)
