Thinking of this, Yu Xiaotian immediately summoned Lei Blacksmith and Zhang Blacksmith to his residence, found a pen and paper and began to write and draw for these archers, and introduced the method of casting cannons that he knew.

These blacksmiths are not mediocre hands, let alone stupid, technical things, sometimes just a layer of window paper, a pass through, the key is to have someone think of it first.

The craftsmanship required for this kind of iron casting method did not exceed the level that the techniques of this era could achieve, and those who knew how to do it as soon as they heard it, even including Zhang Blacksmith, who could not cast cannons, immediately understood the truth after listening to it.

In fact, there is nothing too mysterious about casting cannons, the key is to know how to open the mold, know the shape of the cannon, and smelt molten iron, as long as you know these things, the general blacksmith can do it.

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's introduction, Blacksmith Zhang even clapped his hands again and again, shouting that this method was definitely a good way, and even a little eager to try it on the spot, wanting to try it.

After hearing this, the blacksmith Lei was first shocked, and then his face was a little pale, because he suddenly found that the master he was serving was not as simple as he thought, he actually knew so many things, and he also came up with such a method of casting cannons, although he had not tried the method of casting cannons that Xiaotian said, but as long as he thought about it, he knew that this method would definitely work.

The most important thing is that once this method is adopted, he has no value as a gunsmith, if he casts a few sets of iron molds, even if he is slaughtered in the future, this Yu Da Boss does not have to worry, no one will cast a cannon for him in the future, as long as he holds a few sets of iron molds, he can continue to cast cannons by himself, which is not equivalent to smashing his job?

It can be said that this guy felt that his neck was cold at the time, and he knew that his good days were over, no matter what he said before, he still had skills that could be used as bargaining chips with others, but now he found that his skills were placed in front of this big boss, it can be said that it was basically worthless, people knew so many things, where could he still be allowed to bargain, not to mention that he was there, even if he was not there, as long as this blacksmith Zhang was under his guidance, he only needed to grope for a while, He can also forge iron cannons that are much better than him.

So after listening to Yu Xiaotian's train of thought, this guy can be said to be pulling out the cold in his heart, and he was stunned on the spot for a while, not knowing what to do.

After Yu Xiaotian finished saying his thoughts, he raised his head and looked at the Lei Blacksmith, and saw that the Lei Blacksmith's face was very bad, so he asked, "What?" Blacksmith Lei, your face is so bad, don't you think my method won't work? ”

When the blacksmith heard Yu Xiaotian ask him, the expression on his face twitched, and he forced himself to show a smile that was more ugly than crying, and replied with a lewd face on his neck: "Don't dare, don't dare, don't dare!" The big boss is really a great talent, such a subtle idea can be thought of, and the small one is really admired! This method can be done, it will definitely work! ”

Yu Xiaotian dropped the charcoal bar in his hand, clapped his hands, took a cloth from Liu Wang's hand, wiped his hands, and sneered: "Blacksmith Lei, your face is so bad, if I guess correctly, you should be worried that after using this method, your job will be smashed!" ”

The thunder blacksmith knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed again and again: "The little one doesn't dare, the little one doesn't dare!" ”

Yu Xiaotian put his hands on the chair behind his back, took a sip of tea, and said to the Lei blacksmith who was kneeling on the ground: "The surname is Lei, don't worry too much, although this method of casting cannons makes your craftsmanship less valuable, but I am not the kind of person who unloads the mill and kills the donkey."

I will also leave it to you to take care of the artillery, I don't suspect that someone will not use it, since I have used you, I can trust you, but the premise is that you are here, you must give me all your heart, give me a good cannon, make more cannons, I will naturally not treat you badly!

But it's still the old saying, if you don't work hard for me, my method of casting cannons will never let outsiders know the way, what the consequences are, you have all heard it, and you should think about it yourself! You don't need me to give you nonsense, this is related to the fate and future of my sea wolf in the future, and I will never be merciful!

You come to help me Yu Xiaotian, what kind of person am I Yu, some of you already know the way, this method is told to you today, you will start tomorrow, led by Lei Blacksmith, go all out to follow this method, and start casting cannons for me.

Without the process of opening the mud fan, things are much simpler, I will give you a month to make the first set of iron fans, and at the same time cast the first cannon for me.

This first cannon doesn't need to be too big, it doesn't hurt to be smaller, just start with a six-pounder cannon, and then gradually enlarge it after becoming proficient to make a bigger cannon!

If you do a good job, I will never hesitate to reward, here today, you go down and ponder carefully, and start doing it tomorrow! ”

After hearing this, several blacksmiths such as Lei Blacksmith and Zhang Blacksmith all felt chills in their hearts, because they also understood the advantages of this method of casting cannons, once this method is done properly, a work can be profitable, not only the time for making cannons is greatly shortened, the quality of cannons is also greatly improved, and the cost of cannons will become very low.

If such a method flows out, the value is geometric, and I am afraid that it is not something that can be calculated by silver, so when Yu Xiaotian told them this "secret method", he had actually completely tied them to the ship of the sea wolf, and they could no longer get off this thief ship.

They can completely imagine that if they want to leave here, Yu Xiaotian will definitely not hesitate to kill people in order to protect his secret method, so in the future, they will have no way out except to stay here honestly and work for the sea wolf.

However, Blacksmith Zhang's nerves seemed to be a little big, and he didn't pay attention to Xiaotian's threat at all, but he was still excited, and he agreed with a smile.

It's no wonder that Yu Xiaotian found that this guy is an iron idiot at all through his understanding of this guy during this time, and it seems that nothing else in his life is important to him except for playing with iron.

In the past, in order to make a living on land, he had to build some crude farm tools every day, but after he arrived under Yu Xiaotian, he had a lot of room to play, in addition to helping the sea wolf build what he needed, he could also toss some favorite things by himself when he was free.

Yu Xiaotian also did not restrict him, and at the same time was very good to his family, his wife now gave birth to a big fat boy for him, in order not to distract Blacksmith Zhang, Yu Xiaotian even specially matched his wife with an old woman, responsible for helping him take care of the child, and also gave his wife special care, good food, good drink, good service, so that his wife's milk and water are sufficient, and the child eats black and fat.

Blacksmith Zhang enjoyed this life very much, and now he never thought of going back to the land, so he stayed behind and followed Yu Xiaotian to do it.

Some time ago, he even began to explore the barrel of the bird gun on his own, although so far, no successful works have come out, but Yu Xiaotian has seen the process of his gun barrel, and it is not much different from the way he knows how to build the barrel in his memory.

For this reason, Yu Xiaotian also specially took out a well-made bird gun, handed it to Zhang Blacksmith to study, and collected the information about the ancient method of making muskets in his mind, sorted it out and said to Zhang Blacksmith, so that Zhang Blacksmith also benefited a lot from it, so what Zhang Blacksmith lacks now is only experience, Yu Xiaotian believes that after a while, Zhang Blacksmith will definitely be able to imitate a usable bird gun.

Blacksmith Zhang is most grateful to Yu Xiaotian for this kind of trust, Yu Xiaotian never interfered with him in tinkering with these things, and gave him ideas to help him design some fixtures and tooling for making gun barrels.

So now Blacksmith Zhang let him run away, even if Yu Xiaotian drives him away now, he won't leave, Yu Xiaotian's threat just now has no effect on him at all.

After hearing this, the other blacksmiths all kowtowed again and again with trepidation on their faces, and in short, they understood that they could only stay and work here in the future.
