readx;? Zhang Jiashi couldn't find the white wolf approaching, and paid more attention to the blast furnace without sensing the other party's breath. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info.d.m is smaller, smaller, talking, netting, first, and hair

The blast furnace, even if it is a relatively primitive type, has other functions besides smelting molten iron.

If an effective top exhaust channel is installed to concentrate the exhaust gases that are quite flammable, it is possible to burn and generate raw materials for power generation. Of course, this is something that can only be done after the popularization of rubber in later generations. Asking Zhang Jiashi to do this now is completely unrealistic, and it is also quite dangerous.

Because it is simply difficult to achieve the kind of highly sealed storage equipment in the future generations. Perhaps, in the future, Zhang Jiashi will be able to popularize natural rubber, and this aspect of the situation may be realized.

It's completely a category that you can't get and can't do.

......

In the following time, Zhang Jiashi found the white wolf and Mo Yan'er who came with the white wolf.

Although it was very strange why Mo Yan'er's expression was so strange, Zhang Jiashi asked the other party, and after the other party replied that there was nothing, Zhang Jiashi, who still had some doubts in his heart, could only leave such a thing behind.

In the vicinity of this new blast furnace, corresponding work areas have been built, that is, some relatively primitive stone houses.

This area, under the planning of the personnel that Zhang Jiashi now ordered the Liaodong military to build, has become a melee weapon smelting workshop.

Led by several leaders of craftsmen under the command of Mo Shu, Zhang Jiashi first took a look at the sword and scimitar forging workshop located south of the blast furnace area.

The Qin army was not only equipped with an improved iron eight-sided sword, but also some scimitar equipment with a not too large arc was circulated.

The advantage of the scimitar over the sword is that from a mechanical point of view, the shape is more convenient for chopping. However, to become an excellent scimitar is a little more difficult than the cultivation of swordsmanship with certain results.

The knife weapons of the pre-Qin period were not equipment that relied on their own weight to gain an advantage.

Not to mention that the scimitar collides with the current Qin Army's iron sword, it has no corresponding advantages, and even the collision and handover with the bronze sword are relatively speaking, it is a great loss.

This is also a matter of no choice, after all, the thickness of the current scimitar and the back of the knife is not as good as the knife weapons of later generations, nor is it as good as the Han army ring head knife that appeared decades later.

Zhang Jiashi came to visit this place this time, mainly in the hope of being able to drum out some knife weapons.

Under Zhang Jiashi's inquiry, a leader of craftsmen in charge of the affairs of this workshop explained the workflow of this workshop.

The function of this workshop is not only to polish the cooled mold iron to make some mass-produced weapons, but also to forge these mold irons again.

These forged equipment are mainly equipped for the use of officers.

If Zhang Jiashi needed such equipment, then the craftsman leader would order the corresponding forging of a piece of equipment that had been forged repeatedly for a long time.

This kind of process is not advocated by Momen, but the weapon forging process will be carried out by the Great Qin military construction in various places.

Zhang Jiashi found a problem, since these craftsmen will continue to forge, what is the significance of his invention of this blast furnace?

After hearing this, the leader of the craftsmen was silent for a while, and decided to say the problem directly:

"General Zuo, it is true that the molten iron has been able to effectively carry out the mass production of weapons, but there are some processes that we think cannot be saved at all. Because there is already a whole process in this among us craftsmen. ”

It can be said that the words uttered by the leader of the craftsmen hit Zhang Jiashi very hard.

However, Zhang Jiashi is not such a stingy person, and he was relieved after he heard that after the blast furnace he invented, the production capacity of many craftsmen had increased at least to a certain extent.

Perhaps, for some sophisticated weapons, the gap will not be too noticeable. But for weapons that basically only need to be polished, or slightly forged again, a skilled craftsman can often increase the efficiency more than twice every day.

For example, an experienced craftsman can only forge two iron swords a day, but after using molten iron to infuse molds, the craftsman will often be able to make more weapons.

Therefore, Zhang Jiashi finally breathed a sigh of relief, because he felt that what he had done was still meaningful.

Compared with this, Zhang Jiashi found a problem, that is, when these craftsmen polished those weapons that had been basically formed, they could only slowly grind on the edge of a thing similar to a cutting board.

Zhang Jiashi suddenly remembered something. He left the workshop, and then ordered Moshu to gather some craftsmen in wood, stone, etc.

What does Zhang Jiashi do?

Quite simply, he remembered some semi-automatic sharpening machines that had been built using the principles of bicycle movement.

It's said to be semi-automatic, well, the principle of the bicycle is more semi-automatic, isn't it?

In one house, Zhang Jiashi used a carving knife and a toner brush to draw on several sheets of paper several sets of schemes that were driven by gears and equipped with bronze chains as traction.

After listening to what Zhang Jiashi said, these craftsmen were ordered to take these pieces of paper for reference, and then make the things that Zhang Jiashi needed.

Within two hours, Zhang Jiashi saw these craftsmen and made two samples.

There are no whetstones or anything like that, but samples with minor modifications in many places with reference to Zhang Jiashi's drawings.

Under Zhang Jiashi's watch, the two older blacksmiths, according to the instructions of the craftsmen who made these things, quickly put their two feet on the pedal and slowly turned the whetstone that had been installed.

As a result, the bronze chain used to drive it did not take long to break due to the metallic nature of the bronze itself.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Jiashi discussed the modification plan with these craftsmen again.

And Mo Yan'er looked at the discussions, disputes, and debates between Zhang Jiashi and those craftsmen, and her expression was very complicated.

Because in her eyes, Zhang Jiashi is completely a complete villain.

However, she remembered her father and said: "General Zuo has no idea of such a thing." ”

She didn't know whether she should trust Zhang Jiashi or not, but in this situation, she felt that maybe Zhang Jiashi really didn't know anything in this regard.

"It's weird. Mo Yan'er muttered this, she silently looked at Zhang Jiashi's expression that she almost didn't jump to her feet and scold, and couldn't help but laugh......

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Does the improvement of productivity determine the change in the nature of society?

Such a thing, in Bai Qi's heart, is completely nonsense. In Bai Qi's thinking, he thinks that a truth is correct.

The quality of the increase in the productive forces depends entirely on the circumstances and the effect of the increase in the productive forces, and it is completely incompatible with capitalism and the like.

If in this case, Zhang Jiashi adopts a large number of this productivity improvement technique, and has a half-dime relationship with the capitalists?

And Bai Qi thought of a very interesting thing, that is, if the British royal family in Zhang Jiashi's world gave priority to the fruits of the industrial revolution in large numbers, it is estimated that there would be no capitalists to do anything.

Therefore, Zhang Jiashi did such a thing, Bai Qi did not object, but waited and watched. Because he knows very well that Zhang Jiashi's strength is still too weak, in this case, this kind of technology that can determine the leading position as long as it is well kept secret, Bai Qi doesn't mind Zhang Jiashi making a drum.

At the very least, even if a bicycle is released now, what can it do? Can it effectively change the course of the war, or even history?

Therefore, after Zhang Jiashi vigorously promoted such things as gears, it was only a matter of time before many things would make fundamental progress.

Perhaps, the bronze gear used now has shortcomings in many places, but with such a start, many things are just a matter of time.

It's like the big mill-like warehouses that resemble the Dutch windmills, built in the middle of a series of villages.

Wind drive is used in many places, and in terms of cost, wind drive is basically a no-cost business.

Perhaps, animal power drive still occupies the mainstream in the current Great Qin Empire, and in some places it is just human farming.

It's just that Zhang Jiashi didn't pay attention entirely to the military aspect, otherwise, those windmill warehouses that used considerable military power to build would not have been built gradually.

What Zhang Jiashi did in this regard was basically to put forward a concept, and then hand it over to the Mo family and some talents who were proficient in agriculture to communicate, and the results obtained.

I have to say that the wisdom of the ancients is also very open.

In some villages with rivers, some composite windmills have been improved to be mainly hydraulic-driven, and wind-driven as auxiliary.

The source of water for many ditches is the kind of hydraulic fan-bladed wooden wheel that is like that of later generations.

Inside, there are two grinding discs.

The history of the use of grinding discs by the Chinese is far more than the Qin Dynasty, and the era of its appearance is completely unsophisticated.

The unearthed cultural relics can only reflect a year of use from the side, after all, it has been used and when it appeared, which is completely different things.

And these hydraulic stone grinding discs, perhaps in other places, do not have much effect, and Zhang Jiashi did not enforce the safety of such facilities in every village.

After all, many of the original villages in eastern Liaoning have a complete set of relatively complete farming systems. Large and small stone grinding discs are naturally no exception.

What makes Zhang Jiashi feel a little incredible is that people nowadays don't eat soybeans. Soybeans are mainly used to feed livestock......

Well, Zhang Jiashi doesn't have time, otherwise he will make soy milk and bean curd to improve his diet.

Compared to this...... Zhang Jiashi is very entangled in a question, that is, can soy milk put things like maltose?

The sugar of today is not the granular sugar of later generations, let alone the kind of large rock sugar. Today's sugar, in fact, is a mixed colloidal sugar, and the name is not called sugar, but starch.

Therefore, after a busy day, Zhang Jiashi couldn't help but hesitate a little when he thought of this matter. Inventing something like candy is not a difficult task, but compared to this, the lack of raw materials is a very serious problem.

Sugarcane, not to mention in Liaodong, even in the three counties of the South China Sea, it seems that no one will eat this thing called "Zhe......

At the very least, the word cane for sugarcane only appeared in the Han Dynasty. At this time, no one would eat anything related to wood.

......

The most lucrative industries in ancient times, salt, tea, sugar, gold and iron...... Basically, they are the things with the most extensive application, although Zhang Jiashi doesn't care about hosting his salt farm.

However, if he can effectively mass-produce sucrose, Zhang Jiashi doesn't think that his profit will be much lower than salt.

Tofu and soy milk, two things to drum out, the problem is not big, after all, the raw materials and methods, are recorded in the Qingyu Spirit Book, and then can't drum out, Zhang Jiashi really wants to hit the tofu headlong, and he will be killed......

However, these two things are more used to improve the food. At least, Zhang Jiashi doesn't think that the current yellow milk is delicious.

Cows or something...... Well, this biological category, Zhang Jiashi doesn't understand at all. And compared to this, Zhang Jiashi's subconscious thinks that the yellow cow is too ruined.

A bowl of warm sweet soy milk in the morning, Zhang Jiashi thinks this arrangement is good.

In addition, things like tofu can also improve the diet. Of course, there must be a premise, and that is that tofu must never be cooked in bronze vessels.

Of course, Zhang Jiashi, who is now how to eat yy tofu and drooling in his sleep, will certainly not know that a very classic sentence is being perfectly interpreted by Chen Pingren.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

"Lord Xiao!" In Zhang Jiashi's salt field, Xiao He, under the protection of several sergeants, came to a room that had entered the tight guard.

To be honest, he didn't believe that anyone would dare to attack Zhang Jiashi's salt farm.

Xiao He, who arranged the village planning near the salt field, was stunned after receiving the news. Because of such a thing, it is indeed impossible for him to accept it easily.

This is already completely an act of self-inflicted death.

Xiao He didn't know what it meant to not die if he didn't die, but he knew very well that if such a thing was ...... by Zhang Jiashi Oh, no, it should be said that the people of Liaodong County, who almost rely on the income of this salt farm, know that this matter is not so easy to settle at all.

After observing the situation in the defense area of the broken salt field, Xiao He asked the commander of Zhang Jiashi's personal guard unit with some blood on his body: "What the hell is going on?"

"Lord Xiao, I don't know much about my position, I was leading the team to patrol nearby, and after hearing a violent dog barking and the sound of a flute representing the alarm, I brought someone over to support. As a result, we fought with the sentry personnel who had been arranged to fight these men in black. ”

After hearing this relatively simple answer, Xiao He frowned, and under the light of the torch, he saw a pile of blood.

"What about the losses?"

"We lost four dogs and more than 20 brothers were killed or wounded. Shi Chang said this, and his expression couldn't help but be gloomy. After all, if it weren't for Shusun Zhong bringing people over to support, maybe he would have died among the few masters of those attackers.

"What about the five hundred uncles and grandsons?" Xiao He sighed, he had already discovered that the uncle and grandson Zhong who should have been in this place were not there.

"This ...... Lord Xiao, do you want to lead the way?"

"Hmm. Xiao He nodded lightly.

......

In this room, several guards guarding a basement passage naturally knew Xiao He. Xiao He said to a few guards, "You guys wait outside." ”

"Wow. ”

Xiao He, who entered the basement, saw Uncle Sun Zhong and several fully armored guards discussing something.

And after Shusun Zhong saw Xiao He, he asked an officer to open a curtain.

Xiao He took a look at the situation inside and found that a person was tied to a pillar and had passed out.

Xiao He turned his head and looked at his uncle Sun Zhong, who picked up an iron sword and shook his head gently: "Basically, nothing can be found, and these people are not those professionals who act alone." ”

"You mean, the other party was completely sent by a force?" Xiao He couldn't help frowning when he heard Uncle Sun Zhong's words, and said this.

Shusun Zhong put down the iron sword and nodded lightly: "The other party is very smart and knows that he can't say such a thing. Many weapons are no longer marked. ”

"Could it be someone from Xianyang?" Xiao He whispered.

"No, if the people over there do this, it is estimated that they will not be able to see Lord Xiao under their ranks. Uncle Sun Zhong smiled self-deprecatingly, and then, he remembered something, and lowered his voice: "The other party knows the location of this salt field very well, and he also knows the route, it is very likely that someone who is very familiar with this area would do such a thing." ”

"Uncle and grandson five hundred lords, do you mean ......" Xiao He looked at his uncle and grandson Zhong suspiciously.

The latter nodded, because now, a lot of fine salt has begun to supply the army and Dingxiang and other relatively large counties or villages, far lower than the price of foreign trade salt, so that these fine salts almost completely occupy the sales share of Liaodong County.

Xiao He thought of this factor before he said that.

Uncle Sun Zhong did not answer Xiao He, but pondered for a while, and then entered the room in the basement again......

"Wake him up. ”

"Whoa!"

......

Xiao He then heard the screams for a long time, and also heard Uncle Sun Zhong's questioning. He didn't care, and he didn't leave, because he knew very well the seriousness of the matter.

The thing he thought of was, who would dare to deal with Zhang Jiashi at this time.

The answer was not long in coming, though.

This matter is not so much the work of one Haoqiang, but rather the work of several Haoqiang, uniting together and hiring an obscure organization, hoping to get these fine salt workflows.

And whether this living mouth, which was let go by Uncle Sun Zhong, is the truth or not, Xiao He thinks it doesn't matter.

Because, in the current situation, Chen Ping, Li Zuoche and others in Dingxiang City know exactly what to do.

Xiao He glanced at his uncle Sun Zhong who came out of the room, and after holding a cloth with imprinted fire paint in his hand, he knew that there were some things that had to be done.

After all, even if these heroes did not do so, or most of them were innocent, but in this case, it is obvious that there is a problem, and there is a high probability that a big mess will happen at any time...... Can't stay.

Shusun Zhong glanced at Xiao He, and Xiao He nodded......

One of the guards officers took the paint and quickly left the basement.

......

Zhang Jiashi, who was in his sleep, didn't know that if a force wanted to develop, many times, it could only rely on bloody means.

This is also the fact that Xiao He did not object to this.
