Chapter 23 If anyone can defend this great Qin country, I will fulfill his wish!

Ying Zheng was stunned when he heard this, and his face gradually darkened.

Zhao Gao was next to him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

only then did he praise Zhao Zihu for his ability, but after this was done, he began to lose his shape again, and he actually went to make armor.

Still protective of yourself?

Protect the skin of a melon!

That coward, nine out of nine want to wear armor to show off his majesty, and he is really stubborn!

Armor is a heavy weapon of the military, and it is not a thing for fun!

"He improved the nail making process? Why? ”

Ying Zheng forcibly suppressed the urge to whip people, and asked in a deep voice.

The old minister waved his hand and replied: "From ironmaking to building, a whole set of processes has been greatly improved!" A world of improvement! This kind of improvement should be awarded the title of tenth-class knighthood, otherwise it will not be enough to reward its great merit! ”

Ying Zheng listened to his words, and couldn't help but pause again, and his anger gradually turned into hesitation: "Old Aiqing is joking? ”

The old minister made a straight face: "The minister and Your Majesty, how have you ever joked?" ”

His relationship with Ying Zheng is not as close as Ying Zheng's to Zhao Gao, Meng Yi, Li Si and other courtiers, far from it.

Don't look at Yingzheng and respect him, in fact, the relationship between the two monarchs and ministers is very estranged.

Moreover, it is mutual alienation!

Yingzheng alienated him because of his status as a giant, which did not have legitimacy in the Qin law, but he could not ban it, and once it was banned, it would offend the entire Xiangli clan.

Great Qin can unify China, and even rise at the beginning, Xiangli's ink has contributed a lot, and there are many lords, which can be regarded as deep-rooted, Yingzheng does not want to make a big move, so he can only use alienation, or cold treatment, so that the old Xiangli and his disciples, consciously or unconsciously, withdraw from the power center of Daqin.

In addition, Ying Zheng repeatedly proposed to marry many years ago, but the old minister prevaricated, which made Ying Zheng somewhat unsure of his pulse, and naturally he couldn't get close!

As for the old minister, why he wants to alienate Yingzheng, his mind is much simpler.

He and the old lieutenant who retired successfully, like Zhao Zihu, have already figured out the outcome of the Great Qin National Fortune, and they also know that it is inevitable!

The only thing he can do is to alienate Yingzheng and the Great Qin court, and if necessary, lead the ink of the Xiangli clan to completely break away from the Great Qin, choose the main and auxiliary of the Ming, absorb the nutrients and lessons of the Great Qin, and reshape a real peaceful and prosperous era!

Maybe this sounds a little unrealistic and too idealistic, but the Mohist concept is idealized, and if you play realism, then it's best not to learn Mohist knowledge!

However, after learning about Zhao Zihu today, he seems to have seen another possibility in Zhao Zihu, Chun Yuyue and other Confucian sages can support Fusu, so why can't he support Zhao Zihu?

Even if Zhao Zihu does not fight for the throne of the second emperor, he can also lead the disciples of the Mo family to benefit the Chinese people with the ingenuity of hundreds of works, and change to avoid the collapse and chaos that seems to be destined to come!

"Old Aiqing, and in detail, how did the cowardly baby improve the process?"

Ying Zheng met the serious gaze of the old minister, and had to ask like this.

The old minister groaned slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, how does Shaofu smelt iron now?" ”

Ying Zheng nodded: "In my early years, I was a proton in the Zhao Kingdom, and the iron-making skills in the land of Yan Zhao were the best, so I also saw Yan Zhao craftsmen smelting iron and making swords and farm tools in the downtown area......

"The iron-making and tool-making process is nothing more than grinding ore and calcining, obtaining miscellaneous iron and forging it repeatedly, removing its impurities to obtain refined iron, and then making refined iron into utensils!"

The old minister is the first to be the king, Yingzheng is not a king who grew up in a greenhouse, and he has extensive experience, although his words are brief, but they are not bad.

So, he no longer sold Guanzi, and explained the steel frying method taught to him by Zhao Zihu in detail in 1510.

"Zihu Gongzi's method, using molten iron to directly fry a hundred refined iron, saves time and effort, no less than opening the world, does Your Majesty think so?" The old minister asked.

Ying Zheng was already stunned, squinting at Danfeng's eyes and not moving for a long time.

It was Zhao Gao next to him, who was also full of confusion.

This method, for today's iron-making technology, is indeed no less than groundbreaking, jumping directly from primitive to civilization.

The key is that the feasibility is extremely high, and there are no technical difficulties, just try it out repeatedly!

Once successful, Daqin's steel output and quality will increase dramatically in the future, and a year will be worth several years, or even decades!

This method of frying iron alone is not an exaggeration to give a tenth-class title, and it is even a little light!

"This method is really the cowardly ......"

After Ying Zheng came back to his senses, he couldn't believe it, and subconsciously wanted to deny Zhao Zihu, but when the negative words came to his mouth, he stopped talking again.

This little eighteen in his own family, he is really stubborn, but his brain is also really good, it seems that as long as it is what he wants to do, there is nothing he can't do.

Whether it's crooked or heretical, or great wisdom, there is really the energy that can make things happen!

"How does he improve the construction process?"

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Ying Zheng's mind, but he couldn't wait to ask.

The old minister didn't answer, but just learned to win the government, dipped his fingers in tea, and drew the big windmill structure and the wind hammer structure he had seen before on the table.

"This is the method of using wind power, using it to grind ore, doing twice the result with half the effort, using it to forge miscellaneous iron, getting twice the result with half the effort, and using it to make iron blanks, it is also twice the result with half the effort."

"Compared to manpower, but I don't know how much time and effort are saved!"

"In addition, Zihu Gongzi even ordered the masters, when he returned to Xianyang, he could change the wind hammer to a hydraulic hammer, and the water flow was more controllable than the wind, which was to create exquisite iron, which could also be used!"

The old minister explained clearly to Yingzheng in one breath.

Ying Zheng straightened his beard when he heard this, looked up at the golden top of the imperial tent at a forty-five degree angle, and sighed faintly: "This son, the difference is the temperament, if you can be stable for three points, even if it is two points, I want to send Zhao Gao to recover the edict of canonizing Fusu as the prince, and change the name on it to Zihu!" ”

These words startled the old man, and he stared at the old man and didn't dare to answer.

Ying Zheng sighed, turned to look at the frightened old man, and said, "Old Aiqing, do you think I am lying in vain?" ”

The old man grinned and smiled awkwardly.

Ying Zheng said bluntly: "The night before, if it weren't for Han Fei's persuasion, yesterday Liang Father Mountain sealed Zen, and the prince's edict was the name of Zihu. ”

The old minister's heart was racing, and he suddenly got up, waved his hands and bowed: "Your Majesty, these words, it is better not to say them in front of the courtiers in the future, so wouldn't it cause the father and son to hate each other, and the brothers to fight each other?!" ”

Ying Zheng's face was as usual, and he brushed his sleeves and said: "What if father and son hate each other? What about the brotherly wall? If anyone can keep this great Qin country, I will fulfill his wish, I'm afraid that no one has that ability! ”

These words reveal the unique coldness of the king, and the old face shuddered when he heard it.
