After looking outside the courtyard, he waved the guard who was looking in from outside the courtyard to come in. Xiao Han said a few words to him mysteriously. The guard's eyes grew bigger and bigger, and finally his mouth opened: "If... you want this How many things? Can I find them all?"
Xiao Han glared: "Can't find them all? I'll give you half an hour. If you can't come back, you can go directly to the palace to report!"
"Ah? The steward wants to transfer me to be a bodyguard in the palace?"
"Yes, the little eunuch next to Ouchi's guard..."
"..."
Glancing at the guard who was running faster than a rabbit, the blacksmith apprentices around him all shuddered!
Coal can't be used to make iron? This is simply a joke. Coal can be used to make iron. The old blacksmith knows this, and Xiao Han also knows that the so-called inability to make iron is just because coal will release sulfur and affect the quality of iron, and too high a temperature will destroy the carbon in the iron. A piece of iron without carbon will naturally become as brittle as glass, so you only need to remove the sulfur, and then add carbon to the iron, then its quality must be better than the natural carburizing method of charcoal!
It's just that the ancient carburizing method is too troublesome. There are all kinds of powders that Xiao Han can't name, plus the urine of various animals. Good guy, it takes far more time to make a weapon than Xiao Han. imagination!
But as an outstanding representative of the evil cramming education (he is the only modern person here, he does not represent it, no one represents it anymore...) Comrade Xiao Han does not require the best quality, only the highest speed!
Coal, it's not a big deal, the old blacksmith has it. He doesn't want to waste time with Xiao Han to deny the role of coal, but it's just unlucky for him to meet such a person who doesn't play by common sense.
You have the right not to use it, it will become invalid upon expiration! Xiao Han decisively showed the style of a general manager and forcibly ordered several young apprentices to pour out all the charcoal in the furnace. The old blacksmith beside him was so angry that he was shaking all over. What kind of apprentices are these? Good guy, just follow the others!
A few young people can't take care of that much. After these two days, Xiao Han, who is so capable and kind to the big guys and even asks everyone to wash his clothes, has become their real leader.
One by one, Xiao Han ordered them to circle around, and the burning charcoal was poured directly on the ground. A basin of water was poured into it, and it was smoking. The old blacksmith's head was smoking!
He quickly put the coals that Xiao Han had collected into the stove, rekindled the fire, and then separated the two of them and pulled the firewood beside them desperately, and the fire came up in a moment!
"Get hotter!"
"okay…"
Xiao Han gave a loud order, and then carefully placed the crucible on the stove.
The apprentice under the stove worked hard to suck the milk, the pure blue flames twisted the air, and the iron ingots slowly melted in the crucible!
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, I found it!!!"
Just when the iron ingot was more than half melted, a rapid voice came from outside the door! The guard just now came back with a pale face and streaks of gray! There are many bags and bags in my hand! Looking at him like that, those who knew he was looking for something, but those who didn't knew thought he was *!
Xiao Han was watching the flames attentively. When he shouted, Xiao Han almost fell into the stove...
"Shouting to Mao Shao? You scared daddy to death!" Xiao Han turned around and roared, but when he saw the guard's ghostly appearance, he didn't know how far he had to crawl to complete the task. Now he didn't want to scold him, so he quickly grabbed his hand. The big and small bags inside, "Okay, hurry up and sort it out, it will look like a ghost!"
"Okay, okay..." After listening to Xiao Han's words, the guard walked towards the door tremblingly. As soon as he went out, he suddenly disappeared. Alas, the boss said something, and the soldier broke his leg! Don't be afraid of breaking your legs while running, but be afraid of missing legs...
Instructing several apprentices to continue blowing the wind, Xiao Han squatted on the ground and opened several cloth bags one by one, trying to recall the formulas he had seen before, and stirred the mineral powder in several cloth bags.
"It should be right!"
After muttering to himself, Xiao Han stood up and stared at the movement in the crucible, stirring the pot of molten iron with a long iron spoon from time to time.
Seeing that the molten iron was almost melted, he took out some mixed mineral powder from the cloth bag and sprinkled it in. The old blacksmith, who at first rolled his eyes almost to the sky, became more and more surprised as he looked at it, and his mouth opened more and more. It was so big that it almost reached my ears in the end! It is estimated that two fists cannot be filled!
"Director Xiao, what are you???"
"Don't interrupt, I'm thinking about the process!"
"Oh, okay, please, please..."
The old blacksmith took a step back and stared at Xiao Han's every move with wide eyes, as if he wanted to engrave these in his heart!
Xiao Han tried hard to recall the process when he was in the clay workshop. He held a long iron spoon in his hand and constantly stirred the pot of molten steel. He also fished out the unmelted residue from the crucible from time to time until the ore powder was completely integrated into the molten steel. Han then wiped his sweat!
He carefully scooped a spoonful of molten steel and poured it into the clay mold prepared by the old blacksmith. The molten steel splashed out sparks from time to time when it came into contact with the air and soil. Even Xiao Han, who was holding a long-handled iron spoon, could not bear the soaring temperature. He stopped, and his arms began to tremble.
"I come!"
At the critical moment, the old blacksmith grabbed the iron spoon in Xiao Han's hand. His thick arms were like iron pliers. The iron spoon that was shaking up and down stabilized in an instant!
"Phew... I'm exhausted, come on!" Xiao Han felt his arms trembling. The long ladle carrying molten steel weighed dozens of kilograms. Such a coolie is really not someone with his delicate skin and tender flesh. People can do it!
The old blacksmith has been blacksmithing for most of his life, but his thick arms are not comparable to those of a chick like Xiao Han! The action of pouring molten iron was fast and steady. The clay molds lined up on the ground were quickly filled with molten steel. The more clever apprentice next to him was quickly digging holes in the ground to make new clay molds!
At this time, several other iron-making furnaces also stopped, and everyone put down their work and gathered around, staring at the old blacksmith's actions with wide eyes!
By the time the pot of molten steel was filled, the molten steel in the mud fan at the beginning had already cooled down.
The old blacksmith stretched out his hand to stop his apprentice from hooking out the half-formed horseshoe. He personally took out the horseshoe with an iron hook and threw it into the cold water bucket next to him. Suddenly, water splashed and a stream of white smoke rose into the sky. !
After the horseshoe in the bucket had cooled down, the old blacksmith used long pliers to take it out. He placed it on the iron felt and knocked off the burrs and excess corners with a few hammers. He tapped it with his thick knuckles and let out a curling sound. After the soft tone, the old blacksmith burst into tears! It turns out that iron can be smelted this way!
"Mr. Xiao, please pay me your respects!"
The old blacksmith put down his horseshoe, touched a handful of Lailei, and then knelt down in front of Xiao Han.
And not only him, at this moment, everyone in the yard knelt down sincerely! His head fell deeply to the ground and he didn't even raise it for a while!
This is a great ceremony to kneel down and worship your parents and ancestors!
Xiao Han was overwhelmed by the people kneeling in this yard, and quickly pulled the old blacksmith who was the leader up, "Master, what are you doing? Isn't this shortening my life?!"
"I'm so ashamed, I don't dare to call you master!" The old blacksmith hid his face. Just now, he thought Xiao Han was a rookie, but now, he slapped him in the face like a bang!
Xiao Han smiled: "Master, don't belittle yourself too much. I only know a few small techniques. Come on, let me tell you about the simplest method of frying steel..."
When the old blacksmith heard this, his hazy eyes suddenly opened wide and he stared at Xiao Han closely: "You think I can learn it too? Isn't this a unique secret skill?"
Xiao Han laughed again, looked at the old blacksmith with eyes that were not befitting his age, and said loudly: "What did the master say? Not only can you learn it, but everyone in the world can learn it! However, in the end, It’s better to teach them after we win!”
"Mr. Xiao...is it really not important to spread such skills to others?" The old blacksmith seemed to know Xiao Han for the first time, his voice was trembling, and he held Xiao Han's shoulders tightly, fearing that what he just heard was an illusion.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Xiao Han looked around with expressions of surprise or disbelief and smiled heartily. A sense of pride arose in his heart. Unknowingly, his voice became louder: "Technology is created to serve everyone. If Technology is only in the hands of a few people, so what's the point of it? For those who cherish their own things, Divine Doctor Hua and Xiao Han despise them!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Han couldn't help but recall the history books he had seen before. China has experienced ups and downs for five thousand years, ups and downs, and some of them were caused by political and other reasons. But a nation that is so smart and good at creating Why are they frequently invaded?
Selfish! ! ! These two words have been hovering over the heads of the Chinese people. How does Qin Shihuang's assembly line method work? What kind of power does Zhuge Liang's wooden cow and flowing horse rely on? What does Luban's wooden bird look like? Can't your mother draw it and pass it on?
Do you know the benefits that advanced and widely used technologies can bring? Do you have to let others come over on war horses to cut wheat and kill your descendants? Use spears and cannons to blast open the gates of your country, and then sigh under the nine springs, alas, how could it have been better in the first place? It's just fucking fart! By then, even your incense will be gone, how can you still receive offerings?
"Well said!" An excited shout came from behind Xiao Han, interrupting his intoxicated excited imagination.
"Who!"
Xiao Han, who was still in the excitement, was frightened and looked back angrily!
Chai Shao, Xue Shou and Li Shimin were standing upright at the entrance of the courtyard. Little Li Zi, who was dressed in military uniform, was so excited that snot bubbles almost came out of his nose!
Chief Chai Shao even grinned behind his ears: "Brother Xiao is so enlightened at such a young age, he truly deserves to be a young talent! We fight this world not only for ourselves, but also for the world. Sentient beings who are suffering so much! Let them live a good life and no longer have to live like grass!"
Such exciting words were shouted from the thick voice of the manager of Chai University, which made the people in the yard even more excited. Just looking at the young students, their eyes were shining, and they all wanted to throw down their hammers right now and go. Participate in the great movement to liberate the people of the country.
Of course, Xiao Han didn't believe this at all. Brother, please take the time to clean out the beef between your teeth before you say this, okay?
You said that Manager Chai Shao likes beef so much for some unknown reason. According to the information Xiaodong got from unknown sources, Manager Chai does not like beauties. Xiao Han believes this! After all, there is a female general in the world who is the best in the world. The fate of a lover of beauty is quite terrifying...
He doesn’t like drinking very much, but he only likes to eat meat, especially beef. Before the war, it is said that his family often killed cows... The money he was fined by Yang Guang every year was enough to open a restaurant, but it was a pity that he could not quit this habit. , so much so that now I often cook beef by myself in the military camp...
Will a person who eats farm products all day long benefit farmers all over the world? Xiao Han said he didn't believe it, but looking at Chai Shao's impassioned face, he probably believed him now. If he wants to deceive others, he must first deceive himself. In such a state, Xiao Han felt inferior to...
