Chapter 773: The Secret of the Locke Family
After seeing that Yan Liqiang easily solved the problem of casting trachoma, Luo Yutian was more interested, and took Yan Liqiang to turn around in the craftsman city, and took Yan Liqiang to visit the iron smelting workshop, sword workshop, armor workshop, and arrow workshop in the craftsman city, so that Yan Liqiang went around in the craftsman city.
I have to say that the scale of these workshops is indeed the largest that Yan Liqiang has seen, and the management of these workshops is also remarkable, and it is highly efficient in the Han Empire's first-class craftsman battalion.
After visiting those ordinary workshops, Luo Yutian even took Yan Liqiang to several places with a very high level of secrecy in the craftsman city, where there were sergeants standing guard outside, and the people who came and went were carefully inspected before entering, and the production in several places was a batch of sharp weapons that Luo Yutian had prepared for the Montenegrin Army that had never been shown in front of the world- Several heavy military furies that can be towed with a car, a new type of bust made with a hydraulic press, and even a new catapult that can smash things twice as far as a traditional catapult......
There are countless skilled craftsmen in the craftsman city, and these things are naturally the hard work of those craftsmen in the craftsman city.
Luo Yutian originally wanted to show the strength of the Luo family by showing these things to Yan Liqiang, and fight for a little face for the Luo family and the craftsman city, after all, Yan Liqiang's ability to show in the water and fire machine manufacturing workshop today has made everyone recognize his identity as a master craftsman, this kind of psychology, just like those antique collectors will take out their treasured things for the master to evaluate when they see the master of the antique collection come to visit, and can get affirmation and praise from these masters, and for these antique collectors, there will be a special satisfaction and sense of achievement。
Xin Guogong was full of anticipation and wanted to see the look of surprise and shock on Yan Liqiang's face, but what disappointed him was that from beginning to end, the expression on Yan Liqiang's face did not have more than half of the consternation, those sharp weapons that he thought he thought were not even made Yan Liqiang, a master craftsman, look at it twice, Yan Liqiang swept it away from beginning to end, just like looking at the cabbage sold on the street, his eyes were flat, even in the face of other people's introductions, at most he only showed a polite smile on his face, if he had to evaluate, what came out of Yan Liqiang's mouth was just simple"Not bad!", "Okay!", "Okay!", and other polite words, I couldn't hear the slightest excitement at all.
This made Lord Xinguo very frustrated, and he didn't believe that Yan Liqiang had seen everything!
After everyone took a turn in the craftsman city, the sun was almost set, and Luo Yutian directly invited Yan Liqiang to have dinner together in the back garden of the Jinzhou Governor Yamen in the craftsman city.
There were only Luo Yutian and Yan Liqiang at the dinner table, and their entourage and subordinates were all dining in the outer courtyard.
After the meal was served, Xin Guogong and Yan Liqiang were eating, while chatting about what they saw in the craftsman city today, and when the conversation was almost over, Xin Guogong suddenly changed his style, "Today and Liqiang, you went to this craftsman city, but it opened my eyes, Liqiang, your name as a master craftsman, is really worthy of the name, Tiexin has always rarely served people, but Liqiang you let him obey in a few words today, it is really rare!"
"By the way, Brother Luo, I don't know where Master Ou went, why didn't you see him come to eat?"
"Hahaha, he listened to the casting skills you said, where can you endure tomorrow, you must have gone to the workshop to toss it a long time ago, this Jinzhou Governor built the yamen, I came more times than him!"
"Hahaha, Brother Luo can have such subordinates, and it is also your blessing to have such a subordinate!"
"Liqiang, you are right, this is also the reason why I appreciate Tiexin, the so-called no one is perfect, Tiexin may be a little lacking in other places, talk and do things straightforwardly, but for the things in the craftsman city, he is very attentive and conscientious!" Speaking of this, Luo Yutian said with a little mystery, " I know that Liqiang, your vision is quite high, today's things may be commendable in the eyes of ordinary craftsmen, but in Liqiang's eyes, it is too ordinary, today there was originally another thing I wanted to show to Liqiang, let Yan Liqiang guess what it is for, but there were too many people just now, this thing is inconvenient to display, so I didn't take it out, I will let Liqiang you see now, Liqiang, can you guess where this kind of land comes from?"
After speaking, Xin Guogong clapped his palms, and a cronie beside him directly came to the two of them with a tray of dishes, and then retreated.
The tray was also covered with a red cloth, and Xin Guogong personally removed the red cloth, revealing a bowl underneath, which was now filled with some black-brown unknown liquid, and the smell was somewhat pungent.
Xin Guogong looked at Yan Liqiang with a somewhat expectant and somewhat reserved gaze, originally Xin Guogong thought that Yan Liqiang would be puzzled when he saw this thing, he didn't know what this thing was, this would make him regain a little face, but what disappointed Xin Guogong again was that when he saw that thing, the look on Yan Liqiang's face was only slightly stunned, and then he looked at Xin Guogong with a smile, with a calm face, Xin Guogong, who was still full of confidence, looked at Yan Liqiang's eyes, and couldn't help but feel empty.
"This ...... Do you know where this thing came from?"
"It turns out that Brother Luo is hiding the really good things in the Craftsman City, just now I was wondering, there are so many craftsmen in the Craftsman City, if you only get such a little thing as you see today, it will be too undeserved!" Yan Liqiang smiled slightly, his eyes flashed with wisdom, "I'm afraid that the iron-smelting and steel-making workshop we went to see today is not the latest method that Craftsman City and Brother Luo can come up with, right?"
This time, it was Luo Yutian's turn to be dumbfounded, the reason why he took out this thing, and he took it out in a bowl, was to see if Yan Liqiang could understand where this thing came from without giving Yan Liqiang any hint, and listening to Yan Liqiang's words, Yan Liqiang not only knew where this thing came from, but also made it clear that he had not taken out another thing that he had not taken out with this thing。
"Liqiang, do you really know where this thing came from?" Luo Yutian looked at Yan Liqiang in disbelief.
"There is a lot of coal in Jinzhou, but no one thought that oil could be squeezed out of coal before!" Yan Liqiang winked at Luo Yutian, "This is tar, with tar, there is coke, coke is very beneficial to iron smelting and steelmaking, Brother Luo should have tried it a long time ago, but he didn't take it out, I guess I was afraid of being learned, I originally wanted to tell my brother after I went back today, let me try it, I didn't expect that someone under my brother had already made it out!"
Luo Yutian was quiet for a few seconds, then let out a long sigh, and smiled bitterly at Yan Liqiang helplessly, "The master craftsman of heaven is worthy of being a master craftsman, I am convinced, in this world, is there anything else that you don't know?"
"Haha, I don't know a lot of things, but what I know is a coincidence!" Yan Liqiang picked up the bowl of tar in front of him, and intoxicated took a deep breath of tar, "This is a baby......"
......
When the group returned to the Locke family mansion in Jinju City, it was already dark.
After separating from Luo Yutian, Yan Liqiang returned directly to his Mingyue Tower, but before Yan Liqiang could rest for a while, Steward Luo hurriedly came to Mingyue Tower, "Lord Yan, Lord Thorn Shi has something to please!"
What's the matter, they just separated, does Luo Yutian have something to find himself?
Muttering in his heart, Yan Liqiang still followed Steward Luo to Luo Yutian's study.
Luo Yutian looked solemn, and handed over a piece of paper in his hand to Yan Liqiang, "I also received the news just now when I returned to the mansion, Liqiang, take a look!"
Yan Liqiang took the note, but as soon as he looked at the content on the note, his face changed slightly, and there was only one sentence on the note-there is a change in the northwest, and the army of the Black Corn people defeated the seven divisions of the Sand Rush in the Gulang Grassland......
