After the excitement.

Ying Zheng began to seriously examine this huge metal

“Ze’er, is this thing capable of producing iron?”

Ying Zheng asked doubtfully.

How can such a big thing be produced?

There is not even a place for craftsmen to stand.

How should iron be made?

This is also the doubt of many ministers.

Li Si walked around the steel-making tower that was higher than the Qilin Hall. The furnace.

I walked back and forth several times.

But I didn’t find a casting platform that could allow the blacksmith to stand.

In this case, it would be impossible to build it!

Wang Ben looked at the huge steel-making furnace, his eyes gleaming.

“Good stuff, good stuff, really good stuff,”

“No wonder it can connect so much steel, it turns out to be so big, much bigger than I thought.”

He kept murmuring, with excitement in his voice.

Others didn’t know it, but he knew it.

How terrifying the output of this thing is.

Once it starts to be cast, it will have a great impact on the hall.

I believe that including His Majesty. , when he got the news, he would definitely be shocked.

Li Si was beside Wang Ben, listening to the voice in Wang Ben’s mouth, his heart was itching with anxiety.

“This General Wang Ben doesn’t speak directly and clearly, so we are worried here.”

Li Si curled his lips and knew it if he didn’t want to.

Who did our news come from?

It must be Wang Yan.

Thinking of this, he felt envious. We just gave birth to a good daughter.

With Wang Yan here, the Wang family will not fall.

It is really disappointing. They were filled with envy.

Hearing his father’s question, Yingze nodded,

“Father, this thing is called a steel filling furnace. What it produces is not iron, but steel.”

Without waiting for Ying Zheng to ask, Ying Ze continued to speak.

“All steel is a better metal than steel. It is precision forged from iron. Whether it is used to make weapons or tools, it will be more durable and sharper.”

After Ying Ze explained, Ying Zheng’s eyes suddenly widened.

“What? Harder, more durable, and sharper than iron?”

Ying Zheng’s eyes were shining, and he knew exactly what this meant.

The reason why Da Qin’s soldiers are so strong is because Da Qin’s weapons are sharper than those of the Six Nations. On the battlefield, they are far better than those of the Six Nations.

And Now, Yingze actually said that there is a kind of metal-cast weapon that is harder than iron and more durable.

So just after hearing it, Ying Zheng’s eyes lit up.

Li Si was also slightly startled, with some surprises. He didn’t expect it. There is actually a better metal than iron.

After all, the iron in Da Qin originally exceeded the copper used in the Six Kingdoms.

Because of this, the people of Da Qin used iron that was more powerful and more productive.

They were able to cultivate more 880 fields. , to support the entire Great Qin and support the Great Qin in conquering the Six Kingdoms.

If the people of the Great Qin can have better farm tools, then the reclamation intensity will definitely be increased again.

Many wastelands in the Great Qin due to wars can be re-cultivated, and then wait until next year’s harvest. At that time, Great Qin’s treasury will become sufficient.

This will be beneficial to Great Qin without any harm.

That’s why Li Si will feel the surprise.

At this time, Xu Wu, the Minister of Workshops, discovered the problem

“Your Highness Yingze, this steel-filled furnace is so big, where should the blacksmith stand?”

When Xu Wu asked, Ying Zheng and Li Si nodded.

This was what confused them.

Yingze didn’t answer, but Wang Ben spoke.

“Your Majesty, this thing doesn’t need anyone at all.”

Wang Ben said slowly.

Hearing this, both Ying Zheng and Li Si raised their eyebrows.

No need for anyone…..

They didn’t react at first.

But when he reacted, he always looked at Wang Ben

“How come there is no need for anyone?”

“How to make iron without people?”

Ying Zheng and Li Si asked subconsciously.

Wang Ben looked like Ying Ze and asked him for instructions.

“Since General Wang Ben knows, let General Wang Ben introduce it to his father.”

Since Wang Ben is willing to speak, Yingze doesn’t care.

“Thank you, Your Highness.”Wang Ben chuckled, feeling a little relieved when he looked at everyone’s expectant eyes.

Yingze shook his head with a smile and took Wang Yan to play.

“Speak quickly, don’t be nagging.”

Li Si quickly urged,

“Ahem, because this furnace turns iron ore into molten iron and does not require manual hammering at all.”

“Turn iron ore into molten iron without making it artificially?”Ying Zheng, Li Si and other ministers were all a little confused.

Iron ore can also turn into water.

Wang Ben knew that everyone was confused, so he explained

“I heard Yan’er say that as long as the temperature is high enough, iron ore can be melted into water”

“No, if you turn it into water, how can you make iron tools?”Li Si immediately retorted.

However, Wang Ben seemed to have expected it, and he answered directly

“Iron ore melts at high temperatures and can naturally solidify at low temperatures. As long as you make molds for it, you can make iron tools in batches.”

“It can still be like this! ?!”

Ying Zheng and Li Si were shocked.

If it can really be realized, wouldn’t it mean that various iron tools can be made quickly.

Then the problem of the lack of blacksmiths in Da Qin will be solved directly.

Xu Wu jumped up excitedly.

He looked at him in surprise. Wang Ben,

“Can it really be done?”

Xu Wu asked anxiously.

If it can be solved, Da Qin will never be affected by the lack of craftsmen in the future.

Da Qin can even increase the production speed of iron countless times.

Wang Ben nodded.”Of course it is possible.”

After getting the news yesterday night, he wanted to verify the authenticity of the matter.

So he found someone to raise the temperature as much as possible and found that the iron was indeed softening, and the higher the temperature, the greater the softening of the iron.

Although it It cannot be dissolved in slurry, but simple experiments have proven that this can be achieved.

“Thank you His Highness Yingze, thank His Highness Yingze,” Xu Wu said excitedly.

He stayed up all night yesterday, thinking about how he should tell His Majesty today.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the Qing Dynasty had a solution.

And all of this was because of His Highness Yingzi.

Xu Wu even cried with joy.

It was unimaginable.

After thinking about it last night, how much pressure he was under.

And all of this was easily solved by His Highness Yingze.

His Highness Yingze was simply The good news for the Workshop Department, it can be said, is His Highness Yingze, who has supported the Workshop Department.

This is not very good for the Workshop Department.

Ying Zheng, Li Si and others are also aware of this problem, and their faces are full of Smile.

They didn’t expect that a problem that left many courtiers helpless could be solved so easily.

They sighed again.

His Highness Yingze is really a big blessing.

He is also a koi in their hall.

Just like making a wish.

As long as they encounter any difficulties, Yingze Tianxia may solve them at any time.

However, they just think about it and have no idea of relying on Yingze for everything. If they rely on Yingze for everything, then they will have to rely on it. What is the use?

“You just said this is a steel filling furnace, what is its output?”

Ying Zheng asked at this time.

He looked at such a huge steel-making furnace and guessed in his mind.

The output is probably not low.

Output.

When this issue was mentioned,

Wang Ben became excited.

He knew that once he said this number, no matter it was Many ministers and His Majesty will be shocked to the extreme.

After all, the output of steel is too terrifying.

Wang Ben thought about it carefully.

He slowly said

“According to what His Highness said, such a steel-making furnace can produce 4.5 million kilograms of steel a day.”

After Wang Ben finished speaking, the entire hall fell into silence.

“How much more? Did I hear it wrong?”

“Yes, I just had some ear problems and couldn’t hear clearly. can you say it again”

“General Wang Ben, are you serious?” (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“General Wang Ben, Your Majesty is right in fron

t of you. If you deceive His Majesty, it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor. Please think about it.”

“Impossible, absolutely impossible, how can you produce so much iron? Are you kidding me?”

“Is this too much?”

Many ministers shouted loudly with noisy voices.

Even Li Si looked at Wang Ben in disbelief.

What does 4.5 million kilograms mean?

Li Si took a deep breath and couldn’t believe it in his heart.

This number is really too big. It was terrifying.

If Wang Ben was talking about several thousand kilograms, or even tens of thousands of kilograms, he would not be like this.

But what Wang Ben said was,

4.5 million kilograms.

This number has already broken through the sky.

Li Si couldn’t believe it at all. It’s true.

Ying Zheng is also a little confused[]

“4.5 million kilograms, this is unbelievable.”

He looked at the huge steel-filled furnace with an unimaginable look.

Making such a thing can produce 4.5 million kilograms of iron every day?

(dacd) Ying Zheng swallowed his breath

“Wang Ben, are you telling the truth?”

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Ben seriously, and

Wang Ben nodded.

“I can confirm that this is what Yan’er said.”

Hearing this, Ying Zheng’s eyes were filled with deep shock.

“Four and a half million kilograms, and it can be built in just one day”

“If it’s true, I’m afraid it’s really going to take off.”

Ying Zheng doesn’t know how much the entire Da Qin’s iron output is in a year, but he also knows that it does not exceed one hundred thousand kilograms, and this steel-filling furnace can reach four times of Da Qin’s annual steel output in just one day. More than one hundred and fifty times.

This number can only be described in two words, that is terrifying, extremely terrifying.

Four and a half million kilograms of steel are produced every day.

He can no longer imagine that there is still such production in the world. Such a terrifying thing.

Before, when he knew that the train could pull hundreds of thousands of kilograms of goods, or even millions of kilograms of goods at a time, he had been shocked beyond measure, but now he felt that he was still too small.

“The daily output is 4.5 million kilograms, whether in agriculture, industry, or military. I, the Qin Dynasty, will no longer worry about iron, no, steel.”

“All common people and all soldiers can be equipped with the sharpest weapons”

“The entire Great Qin will usher in rapid development”

“Among them, the industries that are most important to Daqin’s future will no longer be shackles, and Daqin will officially embark on the road of industrialization.”

“Moreover, that train can actually be used,”

“The train carriages and train tracks can be built very quickly, and then the rails can be moved to Northern Xinjiang immediately. In a few months at most, the rails can be completely constructed and completely connected, Xianyang and Northern Xinjiang can be completely connected.”

“Not only Northern Xinjiang, but also Western Xinjiang. The latest gunpowder has been researched and there are enough railway tracks. It is completely possible to mobilize manpower and material resources to lay down the railways in Western Xinjiang. When the time comes, Yuezhi and Xirong can be directly connected. The two major grassland ethnic groups were beaten to submission!!!”

Ying Zheng’s heart was surging with excitement.

He seemed to have seen the infinitely bright and beautiful future of Da Qin.

And Li Si’s eyes were constantly shining.

There is no doubt that this thing is too important to Da Qin, and has even been It has reached an unimaginable level.

The 4.5 million kilograms of steel produced every day cannot be used up. It can’t be used up!!!

Li Si almost laughed stupidly.

“There is so much steel!”

“Every household in Daqin can use agricultural tools made of steel, and the speed of digging farmland will double.”

He can already imagine that next year Great Qin will have a bumper harvest and Great Qin’s treasury will be full.

And these are just tools, used in agriculture.、

“Since there is so much steel, can we use steel to build bridges?”

Li Si couldn’t help but think that there were many bridges in Daqin. As soon as summer came, the bridges would be washed away.

With the durability and hardness of steel, they could carry people and carriages on them.

In the past, he would naturally be reluctant to part with them.

But now we can produce 4.5 million kilograms of steel every day, so why worry about steel?

Make it hard!!!

Daqin, which has the world’s mineral map, is not worried about the lack of iron at all.

If Daqin doesn’t have it, then Grab the places where there is iron in foreign countries.

Daqin has trains. As long as the tracks are laid, Daqin’s railways can reach them. And as long as Daqin’s railways can reach them, then Daqin’s army can too.

With many sharp weapons The soldiers of Great Qin are complete tiger and wolf soldiers.

To give the soldiers of Great Qin such good equipment is not to let them put it on their bodies and do nothing, but to let them expand their territory and build a bigger country for Great Qin..At this time, seeing Ying Ze and Wang Yan coming back.

Ying Zheng immediately asked,

“Ze’er, is this steel-filled furnace suitable for producing steel?”

He was afraid that this thing would be like a locomotive, a pistol, etc. It could only be seen, and Da Qin was simply unable to build it.

“This can be done at any time, but it requires a large amount of iron ore to be stored. After all, once the steel filling furnace starts running, it cannot be stopped easily. It requires constant forging day and night.”

Yingze explained some of the requirements for filling steel furnaces.

You must be extra careful when using this kind of thing. After all, ironmaking is exposed to high temperatures at any time. If you are not careful, you will cause burns.

Listen carefully to Yingze Xu Wu carefully remembered everything he said.

And Ying Zheng also asked people to write down everything Yingze said.

Everything yesterday and night, Ying Zheng immediately gave the order

“Xu Wu, can everything be ready in one month for the steel filling furnace to be used?”

“Yes, I can promise your majesty that if I make the slightest mistake in one month, I will voluntarily give up this position.”

Xu Wu immediately loudly assured that what the steel filling furnace needs is coal and iron ore?

There is no such thing in the workshop department, but the reserves of these two things in the workshop department are almost piled up.

“The best location for this steel-filling furnace is where iron ore and coal mines are located.”

“If placed in Xianyang City, it will cause air pollution and be bad for the health of the people in Xianyang City.”

“Moreover, the iron ore and coal mines required for the steel filling furnace, those in your workshop department, can only support it for a while, and will not last long at all.”

Ying Ze saw Xu Wu’s appearance and reminded him again.

He didn’t want to look up every day and see a big smoke tower with black smoke. After hearing this, Xu Wu, who was full of confidence, thought for a moment,

“Thank you for reminding Your Highness that there is a large-scale iron mine not far outside Xianyang City, and not far from there, there is also a medium-sized coal mine, which can definitely meet the requirements of the steel-filled furnace.”

Xu Wu immediately said,

“Okay, one month later, I will personally lead many ministers to watch the use of the steel filling furnace.”

Ying Zheng stared at Xu Wu and slowly said,

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty and all the ministers.”

After that, Ying Zheng asked Li Si to fully cooperate.

One month later, we will actually see the moment when the steel filling furnace, which can produce 4.5 million kilograms of iron a day, is opened.

After choosing the address, Yingze personally The steel filling furnace was sent over.

At the same time,

Xu Wu also returned to the workshop department.

When he told the blacksmiths in the workshop what happened today, all the blacksmiths breathed a sigh of relief.

“If we are no longer needed in steelmaking, will we be fired again?”

“Don’t worry, the production of molds and the operation of steel filling furnaces also require people to operate them.”
