Chapter Ninety-Five: A New Home, It's Good
Zhao Hengyi cares so much about the refining of tungsten steel, and he doesn't just want to fight two good knives or build a few armors that can be passed down to the next generation.
The performance of tungsten steel is extremely good, and under the existing conditions, with the hardness of tungsten steel, it can fully meet the manufacturing of simple machine tools, hard drill bits and other production tools.
With the production tools, Zhao Hengyi can carry out the initial industrial transformation in Yushu Bay, and once he achieves his goal, the production efficiency far exceeds that of this era, which is enough for Yushu Bay to eventually develop into a prehistoric monster that can crush all industries!
Of course, Zhao Hengyi still has a long way to go to achieve the ultimate goal, and this road is bound to be full of thorns and crises.
If you live in a strong feudal dynasty in a country, the officials are clear and clear, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, perhaps Zhao Hengyi will rely on his far beyond ordinary people's knowledge to make a small fortune and become a rich man who is content and happy.
But this is the Great Yan Kingdom, and it is the Great Yan Kingdom where the entire dynasty is in danger and rotten to the bones!
Zhao Hengyi will never and dare not pin his hopes on this dynasty that may overthrow at any time.
To put it bluntly, everything he does is just self-help, since it is self-help, there is no reason to talk about it, and all the means must be used!
If tungsten steel with stable properties can be smelted, Zhao Hengyi can also start the research of muskets.
The manufacture of firearms can be complex, but it can also be very simple.
The history of firearms, in the beginning, was largely based on the development of gunpowder and bullets.
Zhao Hengyi, who is fully capable of making smokeless gunpowder, to a certain extent, already has the decisive conditions for forging muskets!
In Zhao Hengyi's memory, it turns out that in the history of that world, someone once made the most basic musket out of hard bamboo tubes and black powder.
No matter from which point of view, Zhao Hengyi has a lot of advantages over his predecessors who made bamboo tubes or guns!
And the reason why he went to such great lengths to buy back the blacksmith Wu Ren, who was born to be a prisoner, was for improvised machine tools and muskets!
The blacksmith who was born as a prisoner is completely two creatures compared to Zhang Daniu, Wu Ren is literate and can understand the drawings drawn by Zhao Hengyi, and he can understand the signs of various sizes.
"Owner, who drew this picture? It's really, it's really a master! ”
Wu Ren highly admires the structural diagram drawn by Zhao Hengyi!
The concise and clear lines, the various sizes are clearly marked, and there are even cut-out drawings and sections, after understanding the meaning of the things on the drawings, Wu Ren even felt that his blacksmith for decades before was done in vain, and the craftsmanship passed down by the Wu family for several generations was worthless!
"Who else could have drawn it? Naturally, my master painted it! ”
Zhang Daniu looked proud, "Do you really think that my old Zhang called him Master in order to tie up with the owner?" Shizun has real skills, Lao Wu, you have to behave well, wait for Shizun's kindness, willing to take you into the door, the craft of blacksmithing, your old Wu family will start to dominate from your generation! ”
Wu Ren was at a loss when he heard this, and he had the intention to kneel down and worship the teacher now, but when he first arrived, he couldn't figure out the number of roads here, and he was afraid of annoying the owner, so he could only laugh for a while.
Zhao Hengyi listened with black lines on his head, Zhang Daniu's scourge will not be done!
"It's good if you can understand these drawings, let's take our time with the rest, in short, discuss everything with the big cow, and even if there are any means, we don't have anything else in Elm Bay, just the wages are enough!"
As a feudal exploiter with a body deed, Zhao Hengyi is obviously unqualified, not only Wu Ren, but even those women and children who stayed in the cliff mountain to weave, Zhao Hengyi said everything clearly, there is a salary for work, and if you accumulate enough money, you can redeem your own body deed and stay at will.
Of course, a normal female worker needs to work for a long time if she wants to save enough money to redeem her deed.
Moreover, after a long period of observation and experience, these female workers must know that Zhao Caidong is far from being fed and clothed, and they don't have to worry about being sold by others, which is countless times stronger than being displaced outside and precarious, even if they redeem the deed, I am afraid that few people will choose to really leave.
However, regaining one's freedom from the status of slavery and slavery is a temptation that cannot be refused.
Human desires are endless, and there must be a hope to live, and now those female workers only want to have a place to live, as long as they are fed and clothed.
But when they get used to the current life, they will inevitably have higher needs, and there is nothing to be satisfied with, as is human nature.
At dawn, there was a cheer in the blacksmith's shop!
It's done!
With extremely primitive means, under extremely backward conditions, the rough tungsten steel was made out by Zhao Hengyi!
Even if it is rough, it can even be regarded as a defective product in modern society, but that small piece of tungsten steel represents hope in Dayan Kingdom!
With the technology of smelting tungsten steel, Zhao Hengyi's countless ideas have the most solid and powerful support!
After a busy night, everyone dispersed and was driven home by Zhao Hengyi to rest.
Although Wu Ren was tired, he felt steady.
The new owner is kind and generous, which he discovered on the way to Elm Bay.
But the new owner actually knew how to be a blacksmith, and there were so many wonderful ideas, and he didn't even care about teaching him the method of drawing, which Wu Ren didn't expect at this time!
Moreover, the owner is not resistant to the so-called deviant ideas, or rather, his ideas are even more outrageous than his own!
The reason why Wu Ren was framed by the person who was going to be the prisoner and thus implicated his apprentice and family was precisely because he liked to ponder new things, and he always felt that there was still room for improvement in the craftsmanship left by his ancestors.
But after pondering, he can't help but try secretly, and some small changes will also be praised by Shangguan, but invisibly, he has damaged the interests of others.
In the end, because of the use of materials that will be used as prisons to make new things that are considered useless by everyone, Wu Ren was framed for deliberately consuming the materials that will be used as prisoners, and several headless public cases where valuable materials were lost were also pressed on him, making a tooth store end of selling.
Fortunately, I met the owner, and I think that in the future, such a thing will never happen again.
After Wu Ren and his apprentices arrived at Elm Bay, they were called to the blacksmith shop after just eating, knowing that their wives and daughters would be properly housed, but they did not know where they would be placed.
After asking someone, Wu Ren found the house allocated by the owner...... It turned out to be a brick house made of bricks!
The happy wife and daughter ran out of their new home and told Wu Ren in disbelief that they would not have to worry about rain and water leakage, wind blowing off the roof, and freezing to death at home in winter......
That's nice.
