Chapter 593: Production Returns
Xian Ning was so excited, and after countless times of matching and realization, she finally succeeded, and it was difficult for anyone to control her feelings. In particular, the idea of adding a small amount of iron powder to the limestone and clay was a stroke of genius, and she didn't know how she had a flash of inspiration at the time.
The people of the research institute, as well as the craftsmen, were cheering, and they were tired enough these days. Xian Ning is a workaholic, can those children in the research institute be relaxed? And building kilns, calcining, grinding, are all the work of craftsmen, so many days, people have lost a lot of weight... Now, after so much effort, they are excited that what they need has finally been made.
Jiang Xingchen was also laughing: "That piece of demon beast meat is really not given to the little pom-pom in vain, gypsum and calcined clinker are mixed and ground to make cement... I thought it was simple before, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated!"
With a long exhalation, Jiang Xingchen sighed secretly in his heart, if there was no formation plug-in, no matter how much information he had in his head, cement would not be able to be invented. The internal pressure test of the kiln mouth alone can't be done, and the structure of the chimney and the vent are all built according to the perception of the temperature control pressure array.
"Xian Ning, don't be happy yet, we have developed cement, this is just the beginning, and it is not easy to mass production!" After Jiang Xingchen calmed down, he said to Xian Ning, who was still smiling.
"I know!" Xian Ning smiled undiminishedly and said, "Isn't it just the problem of grinding, I have already thought of it, since we can make a hydraulic blower, we can make a hydraulic grinder." It's not complicated, and with the structure of the blower, it's easy to make!"
Xian Ning raised her head after speaking. A look of "I'm great", come and praise me.
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned, he really didn't expect Xian Ning to have such a plan a long time ago, even he had just thought of this problem.
"It seems that Xian Ning is really more suitable for research than me!" Jiang Xingchen said secretly, looked at Xian Ning's expression again, and burst out laughing.
Xian Ning was originally a very calm and quiet character, and it was the first time that she had shown such a naughty demeanor. It's ridiculous indeed.
"Is it so funny, really!" Xian Ning muttered, and her expression fell. said: "I'll get what I need for the production side, but you have to keep up with the raw materials!"
Jiang Xingchen snorted, limestone needs to be mined in large quantities, and a large number of people are needed for personnel and transportation. But Han Xiaowu just took a group of people. It's not easy to get the miners out in a short period of time.
Other than that. The reserves of that barren limestone mountain are not large, and if the demand for cement increases greatly in the future, it is estimated that it will be exhausted in a few years.
"It seems that in the future, the cement factory will also be moved to the land of the damned...... Jiang Xingchen said secretly, and then said to Xian Ning: "Okay, according to what you said, I will be responsible for the raw materials, and you will divide the required processes." Get the grinder out first. ”
Although there was a shortage of personnel, Jiang Xingchen still agreed very happily. A quick return to Newtown.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Lord's Mansion, before he entered the door, Grandpa Fu came over.
"Sir, the Seventh, Third, and Sixth Legions, each of them has sent three hundred private soldiers to you...... These people have already arrived, and they are all waiting for your arrangement!"
"What?" Jiang Xingchen couldn't help but shout, and then laughed, he was really sleepy and sent a pillow, he was worried about the lack of people, so someone sent it to him.
"Wu Tianfeng, Chen Xuangan, and Wei Ning, the three army commanders, each sent you three hundred private soldiers!" Thinking that Jiang Xingchen didn't hear clearly, Grandpa Fu repeated again.
"Hehe, the three old brothers are really powerful, they actually sent all the private soldiers, just right...... Let the members of the Heaven-Shattering Mercenary Regiment take them to the limestone barren mountains to open mines first!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"What?" Grandpa Fu was stunned, that was a private soldier, not a coolie!
Of course, Jiang Xingchen knew what Grandpa Fu thought, and said with a smile: "Explain to them clearly, this is only temporary, and the salary has doubled during this time...... They'll do it!"
The corners of Grandpa Fu's mouth twitched, feeling a little painful, Jiang Xingchen's private soldiers' monthly salary is one hundred citrine coins, and doubling it is two hundred citrine coins, so the fool won't go!
Grandpa Fu nodded, and then took out a letter from his arms: "Sir, and a letter from Grand Duke Wang Shuangyang!"
Jiang Xingchen stretched out his hand to take it and open it to watch, and laughed again, Wang Shuangyang actually said that he would give himself two hundred slaves with outstanding planting skills~ Li!
"Hehe, this time the demon beast meat is really not in vain, look at this return gift one by one, they are what I need the most!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile, then picked up a pen and paper and replied to Wang Shuangyang, asking him to send a hundred slaves ~ to himself, and another hundred people to the cursed land.
The old man was ordered to go out, and Jiang Xingchen also got up, this issue of Xingchen Monthly was about to be released, he had to go and see it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the courtyard, Grandpa Fu turned back and said to Jiang Xingchen: "The letter just sent by my subordinates belongs to the Duan family!"
"The Duan family is writing again! It seems that they are in a hurry enough!" Jiang Xingchen sighed helplessly, he also wanted to make cement as soon as possible, but in fact, it was not easy to make simple cement.
"Can you not be in a hurry, a few days ago, the Imperial Monthly reported in detail about Heluo Lingxun, which is simply worse for the Duan family! Now there must be bad remarks about the Duan family outside, of course they are worried about their reputation!"
"Has Imperial Monthly also reported it?" Jiang Xingchen glanced at Grandpa Fu.
"It's reported, and it's very detailed...... The Duan family is the first architectural family in the empire, and even some of the buildings in the palace were built by them, and it is said that the network power is not small, why don't you know how to find someone to talk to you, and let the Imperial Monthly Magazine break this matter!" Grandpa Fu said.
Jiang Xingchen shook his head and said: "It's useless to find this matter, hundreds of villages and towns have been flooded at once, so many people have been killed and injured, and the matter is too big." There are not only commoners in this, but also nobles and businessmen who have suffered greater losses, and the Grand Duke of Heluo doesn't want to carry it himself, so although the Duan family's energy is not small, he also knows that no one will stand up for him...... There has never been such a big Ling Xun before, and they can't even pay attention to this when they sign a contract, and it is estimated that they will remember it for a long time in the future!"
Grandpa Fu nodded and said, "The Duan family is also unlucky enough, and they actually have such a thing! Not only has they suffered a lot of losses, but even the construction of our new town has been delayed......
"The Duan family has a lot of craftsmen and laborers, and it doesn't take so many people to build the embankment, so it's not like we can't send people here, but the slow progress at the beginning is certain......
Jiang Xingchen opened the letter at this time, looked at it and laughed: "The Duan family wants us to help them in Xingchen Monthly!"
"Sir, can we help?" asked Grandpa Fu.
"Help, how to say it is also our partner, of course you have to pull a hand!"
"I understand!" Grandpa Fu nodded and walked away quickly. Jiang Xingchen returned to the Lord's Mansion and replied to Duan Qingshi.
Not long after, after hearing Grandpa Fu's order, the nine hundred private soldiers from the three major army commanders were not only not dissatisfied, but were all enthusiastic, just as Jiang Xingchen had expected. The monthly salary of 200 citrine coins is equivalent to their previous four months' income. And people have also said that this is only temporary.
The 900 private soldiers were already good at work and enthusiasm, and the amount of limestone mined increased substantially, and it was continuously transported to Qingshan Village.
In the following two days, Jiang Xingchen built a calcining kiln in the back mountain. The grinding machinery designed by Xianning is also made and placed in the most turbulent place in the upper reaches of the river......
After all this is done, the process of each link only needs to guide the skilled workers to operate. Jiang Xingchen was finally able to take a break, and Xian Ning also temporarily put down his work at his request.
Jiang Xingchen originally wanted to take Mei'er to have a good time for two days, but the little girl has been working very hard these days, learning from Grandpa Fu every day, and now she can get started in all aspects of the territory.
However, Jiang Xingchen had just been free, and before he could take Mei'er out, Zhao Danqing and Mo Hongxian completed their task of escorting Han Xiaowu and returned from the Land of the Damned, and as soon as they came back, they went straight to the Lord's Mansion.
"Brother, we're back, where is the twenty-seventh level demon beast meat?" Before Zhao Danqing entered the Lord's Mansion, his loud voice reached Jiang Xingchen's ears.
"It's over, it seems that I can't play today!" In the room, Jiang Xingchen looked at Mei'er a little helplessly, and secretly hated in his heart, why didn't he say that he would come back two days late.
Mei'er covered her mouth and chuckled, and said, "It's okay, brother is busy with business first!"
Although he was unhappy in his heart, Jiang Xingchen still opened the door and greeted him, the cursed land is the top priority for the development of the star leader in the future, and he also wanted to know what the situation of the cursed land is.
The smell of tea wafted in the room, and Mei'er put three cups of tea in front of Jiang Xingchen, Zhao Danqing and Mo Hongxian, and sat quietly on the side.
Zhao Danqing took a sip of the teacup, narrowed his eyes with enjoyment, and said loudly: "Brother, it's not too early, hurry up and make demon beast meat!"
"It's only morning, okay!" Jiang Xingchen and Mo Hongxian were full of black lines, and there was nothing else in their minds except eating.
Jiang Xingchen took a deep breath and said, "Don't talk about eating, tell me about the situation in the Cursed Land!"
"That place, although this season is far less cold than ours, but it is cool and shady, and it is not comfortable at all. There are weeds everywhere, there are not many trees, and there is really no vitality......"
Basically, there is nothing to say, and the characteristics of that place are summarized very clearly in a few sentences, exactly the same as the news that the Wang family sent him.
Just when Jiang Xingchen was learning about the situation in the Cursed Land, this issue of Xingchen Monthly was also released, which was still one million copies, and it also introduced Ling Xun of Heluo Ling in detail. (To be continued......)
