Chapter 28: Forcing Liang to Become a Thief
readx;
The punishment of Ling Chi of the Yu family's father and son went quite smoothly, among which Yu Xiaolong only took a thousand knives to settle the account because of his advanced age, and Yu Yanei was injured by hundreds of knives because of his young and strong body, speaking of which, although Ling Chi's punishment was cruel, but the total of 3,600 knives was really not enough for a few prisoners, but anyway, after the death of the Yu family's father and son, this sensational rebellion of the important ministers was finally settled!
After watching the whole process of the Yu family's father and son being cut by a thousand knives, they flashed people, and then they didn't go to see the tragic scene of the people being beheaded by a knife in the door ya, speaking of which these people are really wronged, Buchen gave NPC Zhang Lao Wu at the beginning was just a pit for the father and son of the family, and they didn't have the idea of these generals at all, the reason why they ended up like this is actually completely NPC Zhang Lao Wu's whim, but as the saying goes: life and death are fixed numbers, and they can only blame themselves for being too lucky, And the will is not strong......
After cleaning up the Yu family's father and son, and avenging Lao You, Buchen finally began to be busy with the matter of opening a factory in Beijing, which he had promised Blacksmith Li for a long time, because the Yu family father and son had not been killed, they did not do it because they could not stay in Jingshi, and now that the matter is over, it is natural to start working. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After discussing with Blacksmith Li and Lu Fengxian, Buchen decided to build the factory outside the city, the advantage of this is that it is secluded enough to reduce the risk of technical leakage, and secondly, it is not very subordinate, so he finally decided to start the trial production of artillery, and the trial artillery must be test-fired, so the movement is naturally not small, if it is still in the city, it will be too refreshing.
After inspecting the city with Li and Lu, Buchen picked a manor outside Lanshuimen in Bei'an Prefecture, which is also funny, this place was actually one of Yu Xiaolong's other businesses, but after the fall of this giant traitor, his family property was naturally sold, among which the real estate in Bei'an City is naturally not a nobody, and it has long been carved up by the giant room in Beijing, and some of the fields and manors outside the city are currently being put up by the local government to sell the brand. Just wait for the buyer to come to the door to deliver the money.
Buchen was fortunate to participate in an oriental-style auction, attended not only by a lot of wealthy businessmen and magnates who were resident in Beijing, but also by all kinds of dignitaries, in order to be able to shake the field, the local government also specially put Yun Chongming his brother, the famous rich idler Song Wang Yun Chongwang in Beijing to find it.
This His Royal Highness the King of Song is much more interesting than Yun Chongming, because he was born a year late, and there is no hope for the throne, he can only change the law of eating, drinking and having fun in the past few decades, speaking of the tricks of eating, drinking and having fun, maybe only Buchen can compete with this one or two in the whole world, and the reason why he can compete with this is completely stained with the light of being a traverser, if he is also a native native of this world, he can only look up at this one!
After arriving at the venue, His Royal Highness the King of Song did not deign to be condescending, and actually went down to the stage to preside, and in order to entertain the congregation, he also conjured up a lot of pigeons from his sleeves.
Buchen has never seen a magic show in his life, and he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, not that His Royal Highness King Song performed magic tricks, but that there is such a thing as magic in this world, which is enough to surprise Buchen, he originally thought that in the world with real magic, there is no room for things like magic to be found at all, but he didn't expect it to be like that at all!
Magic may not be able to develop in the Western Continent, where there are many magicians, but it is a very sought-after thing in the Eastern Continent, where there are no magicians and are rich and peaceful.
In this auction, Buchen used a somewhat high price to include a manor that originally belonged to Yu Xiaolong and thousands of acres of adjacent fields, and other wealthy merchants and nobles looked at him with the same eyes as if they were wronged, but Buchen didn't care at all.
For him, a Jiangyang thief, Bei'an, the capital master where rich businessmen and giant families gather, is an inexhaustible cornucopia, and it is not easy for him to want money? Find a random official or a noble family to take a trip, how much does it cost?
What's more, Emperor Yun, the world's richest man, and his family are also in this city, if you want to make more money at a time, you can go straight to the Forbidden City......
After purchasing the site to open the factory, Buchen immediately began a large-scale construction campaign with Li and Lu and the workers brought from the four towns of Wushan, and with the help of Buchen and his superhuman companions, the weapons experimental range and the steel plant that were originally planned to be built were completed within two months.
The new iron and steel plant has two smelting furnaces, one is an iron-making blast furnace, and the other is a steel-making open hearth, the scale is five or six times larger than the original in the four towns of Wushan, according to the calculation of Li Blacksmith, if the original iron-making blast furnace can produce 8,000 catties of iron at a time, then the current iron-making blast furnace can produce 50,000 catties of good wrought iron at a time, and the output of steel has also doubled by almost a multiple, the original can only produce 4,000 catties of steel, and now the output of 20,000 catties of steel at a time is not a problem.
However, although it is a good thing that the production capacity is large, a new problem has emerged, that is, sales! That's right, you can't make all this steel yourself, right? Gotta sell most of it, right? It's just that this question is a bit worrying, he's just a thief, not a businessman, and he has no relevant connections at all.
After thinking about it, Buchen decided to let the factory use one-third of its production capacity first, and he himself and Blacksmith Li first went to the research and development of new weapons.
When it comes to the development of new weapons, it is nothing more than artillery! Buchen's heart is very big, as soon as he gets started, he wants to cast a twelve-pound steel breech cannon, but this requirement stumped Blacksmith Li, although he is good at smelting iron tools, but his director is basically in forging, although casting will also, but he is not very proficient, Buchen will cast a twelve-pound cannon as soon as he opens his mouth, which really makes him a little stressed!
Fortunately, Blacksmith Li has a solution in the end, they are now outside Bei'an City, Blacksmith Li's original unit will be a prisoner in this city, and it is really great to talk about this as a prisoner, which gathers the entire Eastern Kingdom, no! Perhaps some of the best craftsmen in the world! And all kinds of industrial categories are complete, carpenters, coppersmiths, blacksmiths, bricklayers, anyway, there are all kinds of craftsmen, not only need to go to the inside to tie a ticket to a master coppersmith to bring back - because often use all kinds of copper to cast bells and other large ritual vessels, these coppersmiths are good at casting, they must be right!
Even in order to let Buchen kidnap the ticket back a real master, Blacksmith Li even gave Buchen the name and appearance of the person who wanted to kidnap the ticket......
This coppersmith's surname is Lu, the name is used, in the early years, before the blacksmith Li went to the Western Continent to pan for gold, he was a colleague and friend in the prison with him, both of them were very dissatisfied with the world of today's literati, and often drank together to kill their sorrows, but unlike the bold and energetic blacksmith Li, this benevolent brother was less courageous, and his character was more cowardly.
Buchen naturally wouldn't refuse Blacksmith Li, so he took the elf sisters and the little cat girl to sneak into the dormitory of the prisoner, and without saying anything, he tied up the five members of the Lu coppersmith family, slipped up the city wall at night, and brought the Lu coppersmith family out with a rope.
When Coppersmith Lu saw Blacksmith Li again, he almost grabbed his fist and beat him! He originally served the iron rice bowl steadily, as long as he worked in the prison all his life, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing at all, and even his children and grandchildren could continue to serve this iron rice bowl, but as a result, Li Blacksmith instructed Buchen to rob him out, and now he not only lost his job, but also made a helper for the world's No. 1 criminal and big thief, didn't this put him to death?
Blacksmith Li just laughed, let Coppersmith Lu scold him and was not angry, until he saw Coppersmith Lu's anger disappeared a little, then took him to visit the newly built steel mill in Buchen, after learning the production capacity of this small factory in the suburbs, Coppersmith Lu almost bit his tongue, at first he just didn't believe it, but after he actually smelted a furnace of steel with Blacksmith Li, he had nothing to say.
At this time, Buchen promised him a lot of wages, and promised to let his son study and learn calligraphy in the future, and stuffed him with a lot of black technology materials, so that Lu Coppersmith's heart was completely settled, and he signed a lifelong employment contract, and since then he has sold himself to Buchen.
Since then, the industrial team of Buchen has barely been able to get together!
