Qin Hui smiled: "This is natural, but I am just a small outsider in the Ministry of Rites." I can't see my official monk father. I don't know if my words can be passed on, and I ask Ouyang Envoy to forgive me!"

At this time, Qin Hui was very angry. As the Infernal Affairs sent to the city of Tokyo by the Bundai Heavenly Master, it cooperated with the internal and external efforts to sweep away the opposition forces that connected the science of science.

Although Qin Hui fell into a back-bone boy, he had a reputation for betraying his friends and selling glory, and his reputation was notorious. But he succeeded in becoming a descendant of Wenda Tianshi.

Now, although his official position is not high, he is still just a small outsider. However, it was only transferred from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Rites. But Qin Hui understood that this was just for him to avoid the limelight.

Because of his excellent performance of someone Qin, thousands of low-level officials, students, and some businessmen and monks all jumped out and were wiped out. Outside the city of Tokyo, for several months, I don't know how many people were exiled to Lingnan every day.

I don't know how many people hate him Qin Hui to the core, even those neutral factions and the Heavenly Master faction are also secretly disdainful of him Qin Huizhi. But Qin Hui didn't care at all, time would dilute other people's bad impression of him.

The most important thing is that he has the trust of Shang's father. This is more important than anything else. As long as you think about it, the last time Shang's father got married, he was used to arrange protocols, and this time to entertain the envoys of Liao, it was also up to him, so you can know what Wen Fei thinks of him.

What made Qin Hui most proud was that Shang's father and the princess had married him to arrange the protocol, which seemed to be just a matter of the housekeeper's subordinates, and it was a bit insulting to the identity of the imperial court.

But then again, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, who didn't want to sit in the position he was in at that time? Qin Hui dared to pack the ticket, and the Great Heavenly Master Wen said, let the Ministry of Rites Shangshu go and do this job for him, to ensure that this sanctimonious old man would run over to work quickly.

I didn't see the guys who had been afraid of him since that day. Now that he sees him, don't Qin Huizhi also have to accompany him with a smiling face? It is the Shangguan he should be in charge of, those waiters and scholars, don't you also want to say a few words of greeting when you see him?

Why? It's not because Master Wen asked him to do this position, but he didn't treat him Qin Huizhi as an outsider? Even if some jealous guys secretly said that he Qin Hui was a house slave in Shang's father's mansion, Qin Hui didn't get angry at all when he heard it. Just kidding, he also wished that everyone in the world would know. If it were you, you wanted to be a house slave in Shang's father's mansion?

Thinking of this, Qin Hui became more and more proud. But he was still a little wary of it. I know that I must do a good job of the things that Master Wen Da has explained. Wenda Heavenly Master and the official family did not see Ouyang Shilang at this time. It's not that I don't value this guy. On the contrary, there is a great deal of attention. Very important.

In the end, Genyue was not built, and it could only be regarded as half built, with some traces of the mountain. But it can't be barren forever, so I planted some flowers and trees on it. Some buildings were built. Now it seems that it is quite wild.

It's just that the few people who traveled to the mountain actually didn't have the slightest intention on this mountain, and it was Ouyang Shilang who was discussing.

It was the time of the convergence of midwinter and early spring, and it had just snowed. Although the snow in the city has melted, there is still a lot left on the mountain. The plum blossoms are blooming, but the dark and heavy cast iron-like branches spit out those delicate red flowers, and the contrast is becoming more and more intense.

Not long ago, the unlucky Wang Hao stood on the wrong team, and as the prime minister, he still wanted to be the first rat. Hook up with those forces who oppose the Heavenly Master of Wenda. Naturally, it was bad luck, and it was originally going to be driven to Lingnan to eat lychees. But there are too many people offended by this goods, and they are not bad at falling into the well, so this guy went to the northwest outside the city.

In those places in Lingnan, although it is called the land of miasma. There are a lot of tigers, leopards and wolves, but there are still lychees to eat. But outside the plug is a desert of yellow sand, I am afraid that I can only eat sand.

Although the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty is still Cai Jing, this product is completely confused. Sitting at the court meeting, I fell asleep and drooled within a few minutes. Now it's just a matter of taking a position.

Therefore, the real prime ministers now are the ones in front of them. One is Zhang Bangyan, who is also a good friend of Zhao Ji. The other one is Uncle Zhang. These two young Zhuang figures.

plus Fang Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Nie Chang, the secretary of the Ministry of Households. There is no one else, but the core departments of the imperial court are all staffed.

And in that man-made valley, there is a large group of people, who are busy.

A small blast furnace for steelmaking was erected. Billowing yellow smoke began to emit, polluting the otherwise clean air. The originally cold and clear air became infinitely turbid.

At this time, it was the time to open the furnace, and the red molten iron flowed out, like magma with a high temperature. Let those best iron craftsmen in the Northern Song Dynasty see it, and they are all stunned and cheering and shouting.

"Wonderful, wonderful, really wonderful!" Zhao Ji kept exclaiming, and seemed to be enjoying the industrial exhaust gas emitted by the blast furnace. Let the Great Master of Wen shake his head!

He originally wanted to put this blast furnace in the suburbs, but when Zhao Ji heard about it, he wanted to put this blast furnace on the edge of the palace no matter what. And there are words: "This is a militaristic artifact, if it is not placed in front of my bed, I can't even sleep!"

Whether it is those craftsmen in the valley or Zhao Jijun's ministers, they are all smiling, and even this industrial exhaust gas, to them, smells hundreds of times better than ambergris.

This kind of blast furnace that has been eliminated a long time ago is a treasure that Wen Fei spent a lot of effort to get his hands on. Modern times have been cracked down on, polluting the environment and consuming a lot of energy.

But in this modern time and space, it is a proper artifact. A furnace can produce 300 tons of iron, which is a fantastic number for these blacksmiths in the Northern Song Dynasty.

You must know that the original annual steel output of the Great Song Dynasty was only more than 3,000 tons.

(150,000 jin is a popular number on the Internet, only about 75 tons.) But if you think about it, you know how big the problem is, such a big country, tens of millions of people...... After I checked the information again, the annual steel output of the Northern Song Dynasty should be about 3,500 tons. ）

And now the molten iron in this furnace has almost one-tenth of the annual steel output of the Great Song Dynasty. How is this not an artifact?

This can only be a treasure that only exists in the upper realm, and the refining furnace of the immortals will be so powerful.

Although this kind of thing, even those private enterprises in the townships and towns do not look down on this kind of small blast furnace that has long been eliminated and backward. But in the time and space of the Northern Song Dynasty, it is already a big killer weapon for enriching the country and strengthening the army, and suppressing luck.

"Congratulations to the official family, congratulations to the official family!" Nie Chang laughed and said: "With this artifact, my Great Song Dynasty will be invincible from now on!"

"The ministers are His Majesty!" the two rulers glanced at each other, and Qi Qishan shouted and danced. This is something that really increases the strength of the dynasty, and it can't be overstated.

With this artifact, a steady stream of weapons, armor, and even farm tools will come out of it in an endless stream. Together with those well-trained soldiers, the iron and blood of the Great Song Dynasty were formed!

The most important thing is that the appearance of this small blast furnace will not be like gunpowder. It will cause the backlash of time and space, after all, this is a "device", not a "Tao".

Gunpowder is the "Tao", something that can change time and space. And such a small blast furnace, even if it produces 100,000 tons of steel per year, is still a "tool" and cannot bring about changes in the nature of this time and space.

The improvement of steelmaking belongs to the category of Dao, although it will not be as intense as gunpowder, but it will still moisten things and silently change the entire time and space of the Great Song Dynasty.

This is the most important thing that Master Wen brought before deciding to give up the jade pendant.

In Wenfei's mind, other things may be disposable. Only this blast furnace can produce a steady stream of steel, which is the most important.

No wonder Zhao Ji was not at ease and put it outside the city, in fact, if it weren't for the great Heavenly Master Wen saying a few words. Zhao Ji even almost wanted to lock this thing in Yanfu Palace...... and put it in front of his bed......

"Don't be too happy," Wen Fei said though he didn't know much about industry. But I have never eaten pork, and I have seen pigs walk: "This blast furnace needs coke to make steel." And you can't use ordinary coal, which is coal!"

Bituminous coal is heated to 950-1050C under the condition of air isolation, and finally made into coke after drying, pyrolysis, melting, bonding, solidification, shrinkage and other stages, this process is called high-temperature coking (high-temperature dry distillation).

Only this kind of coke can be used to make steel, and ordinary coal that has not been cokened will not work.

Steelmaking is actually to remove the excessive carbon in the iron, so that the carbon content is reduced and become steel. Ordinary coal can not be used as long as you hear the name. Only this kind of coke can be used to make steel after high-temperature coking.

In ancient China, this problem was never understood at the beginning. Therefore, although the scale of steel production from coal has not been large. In particular, steel, which is used as a weapon, can only be made of charcoal.

The use of coke instead of charcoal in ironmaking blast furnaces laid the foundation for the large-scale of modern blast furnaces and was a major milestone in the history of metallurgy.

Although Wen Fei brought a lot of information from modern time and space, whether these things could help the craftsmen of the Northern Song Dynasty successfully refine coke, Master Wen was not very sure.

He also knows nothing about these things. It doesn't seem like all kinds of ordinary coal are made into coke. And it seems that coke has to be divided into three categories, and it seems that it is only one of them that can be used to make steel.
