Walking through Old Man Hua's secluded courtyard, he came to the door of his room. Seeing that the door was ajar, Xiao Han paused for a moment before pushing the door open and entering.
It was rare that Old Man Hua was not writing anything today. He was staring at the closed window in front of his desk in a daze.
"Master? Master?" Xiao Han walked behind the old man and called him twice.
"Who?" Old Man Hua was startled, turned his head suddenly, and found that Xiao Han was behind him. He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and greeted, "Xiao Han, why are you here?"
"Hey, let's see you!" Xiao Han said haha when he saw the old man's worried look, then dragged a stool over and sat next to the old man.
"Come to see me? That's not right! You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything." The old man looked at Xiao Han suspiciously, obviously not believing what Xiao Han said.
Being exposed on the spot, Xiao Han smiled awkwardly, stretched out his hand to dig in his arms, took out the plan he just wrote and handed it to the old man: "I still can't hide it from you, master... I'm going out now! You're always at home, Just take care of your apprentice! These are some of my arrangements, and I feel most at ease giving them to you."
The old man did not accept what Xiao Han handed over. Instead, he stared at Xiao Han and said solemnly: "What? This time, I won't go with you?"
Xiao Han smiled and replied: "Master, please don't run away this time. We are getting older, so we can just leave these things to our juniors! You can rest at home and write, even if you have time to go out to visit friends! It's really There is no need to be so tired. By the way, I met Mr. Sun Simiao a while ago. He is very close to here. In your free time, you can also go to him and exchange medical skills. Mr. Sun is a very good person. "
Old Man Hua shook his head. Xiao Han's soothing words were of no use to him. As I live older and see more of the world, it is naturally difficult to be comforted by other people's words.
He stretched out his hand to take the paper and put it gently on the table without looking at it in a hurry. Old Man Hua sighed and asked Xiao Han: "Didn't you have all the plans years ago? Just stay at home in silence and play. Let others do the killing! Why have you suddenly changed your mind now? It's not that the master doesn't want you to make contributions, but you are really not suitable for the battlefield."
Xiao Han smiled bitterly, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist. In this strange but familiar world, Old Man Hua was definitely the person who cared about him the most, and no one could compare with him!
Maybe the two people didn't spend too long together. Even though they live together now, the two of them don't see each other much. But Old Man Hua is really like Xiao Han's father, silently paying attention to himself and thinking about himself everywhere!
Raising his head, Xiao Han said slowly: "Master, what happened before was just wishful thinking... A few days ago, I suddenly thought about it: people who want to live in peace often live in unrest! A great man once said , It’s endless fun to fight against the sky. It’s endless fun to fight against the earth. It’s endless fun to fight against people. I don’t have the courage like him, but I’m afraid that if I don’t fight now, I won’t even have a chance to fight in the future!”
"Are you going to strengthen your position in the army?" Old Man Hua asked with a frown. He was indeed the person who knew Xiao Han best! From Xiao Han's long-winded nonsense, he still keenly found his most fundamental meaning!
"Yes!" Xiao Han did not deny it, nor was he surprised. He simply recognized this point.
Old Man Hua nodded and asked, "Is there anyone suitable?"
Xiao Han pondered for a moment and then said: "There are three people, and I want to see them as soon as possible! I also want to share the kindness of knowing each other."
"Okay!" Old Man Hua then slowly put away Xiao Han's plan, "Now that you have made a decision, Master, I can only wish you a safe journey. Don't worry, I will help you take care of it at home!"
Xiao Han stood up and bowed deeply.
Xiao Han actually wrote three copies of the plan. Old Hua's is the most comprehensive, Zhang Qiang has one, and Director Cao also has one.
Zhang Qiang wanted to go with Xiao Han at first, but Xiao Han declined. The second wife was pregnant, and he really couldn't bear to let Zhang Qiang take risks with him.
The day of the expedition is getting closer and closer, and the laughter and laughter in the Xiao family village have also disappeared. Uncle Lunzi leads a few men to practice in the open space every day. Not only do they have to pick up the martial arts that have been slacked off these days, but they also have to become familiar with it. New weapons for the Industrial Zone.
On this expedition, Xiao Han only took five of them, plus Xiaodong was at his side as a personal soldier, and none of the others were taken with him.
The fool was really reluctant, and he wanted to go, but because he was not smart enough and his martial arts skills were not good enough, he could only stay at home and watch their busy work with tears in his eyes.
Xiaodong is very busy, very busy! Master Cao got so many weird things from nowhere, equipped him with them one by one, and asked him to use them skillfully!
Inhumane! If you don’t practice well, you won’t even be given food! Xiaodong feels like his bones are aching every day, and the pain is so bad that he can't sleep at night. No one has come to help him yet...
Uncle Lunzi came over once and saw Xiaodong shoot out a net from his sleeve as soon as he raised his hand.
I don’t know what material the net is made of, and it is difficult to cut it with a knife! Even an absolute master would be unable to break free if his head was covered by this net for a while.
Not to mention that there is a device on the other arm that shoots steel needles as thin as cow hair. There are countless densely packed steel needles. The needles are blue and do not look like good things at first sight!
After seeing this, Uncle Lunzi turned around and left without saying anything. Maybe he did? Let Chief Cao train Xiaodong to death?
Ever since that old man saw Xiao Han designing the chain with his own eyes, his interest in this magical Lord Hou has greatly increased! After making the chain, he asked Xiao Han many questions one after another.
The questions he asked were very complicated and covered a wide range of topics. Some of them Xiao Han understood, some he knew only a little, and some he knew nothing about!
However, Xiao Han's extra thousand years of experience is by no means in vain. No matter what the problem was, Xiao Han could comment more or less, and even pointed out some inappropriate ones directly, which shocked Mr. Qin!
The water hammer was successfully developed, and Master Cao had already begun moving the steel plant to the river. Once the water hammer was successful, he began to take over the manpower to build it.
Because it is a new technology, the first water hammer is not too heavy, about five or six hundred kilograms, but even so, it is much stronger than a human hammer! What's more, it can work day and night without any interruption!
Xiao Han came over to see the water hammer, praised its stability, and inspired Mr. Qin: "Since the water hammer is so stable, why not modify it a little and connect the bellows? Wouldn't the temperature of steelmaking be higher? ?”
As soon as these words came out, Chief Cao shook his head! The old man sighed! The craftsmen around him were stunned!
The Marquis only stood here for a cup of tea! You can design something so practical! Could this be what the ancients called a peerless genius who can draw inferences from one instance to another? Compared to this, people like myself are simply useless!
Guilt and shame are more motivating than pride! In addition, the modification of the bellows is not difficult at all!
In one day, the red-eyed craftsman made several! In order to maximize the use of water power, Qin Lao specially modified the bellows to be three or four times as big as the original one. It can hardly be pulled by manpower alone!
In order to provide continuous air supply, a steelmaking furnace must be connected to at least two bellows!
After filling in the newly made coke and turning on the bellows, the original orange flame turned into light blue. The iron ore was thrown in and soon turned into a pot of hot red molten iron. Some impurities that could not be melted were picked up by the craftsmen with long iron ladles and stored aside.
These might be good things, so they decided to wait until they had a better fire to try it again!
But here Xiao Han knows: the current flame is almost the best that can be achieved in this era! If you want to completely squeeze out the energy of the coke, you need to blow oxygen, and Xiao Han simply can't produce that much oxygen!
