After the workers received Ji Ping'an's instructions, they immediately went to collect the money.

Zhang Manping's eyes were full of expectations at this moment. He knew that Ji Ping'an would definitely have new arrangements.

There was a look of desire and expectation in his eyes, following Ji Ping'an for such a long time.

He knew that every new move Ji Pingan made would not disappoint him, and he wanted to know what Ji Pingan wanted to do next.

"Master, if you have any new arrangements next time, just tell me. I know you will probably stay here during this period of time."

After Ji Ping'an heard what he said, he had no intention of hiding it and nodded slightly.

Ji Ping'an knows what the current situation means?

He didn't hide Zhang Manping's intention, but he didn't explain that much now.

He pretended to be mysterious and said: "The thing I am going to build next will be a disruptive thing. After the forging of this thing is completed, it will greatly release productivity."

"At the same time, a new revolution can also be launched. After all construction is completed, a new era will be witnessed inside."

Although what he said is a bit arrogant, it is the fact. The emergence of steam engines in this society is bound to change everything.

Faced with the current situation, Zhang Manping couldn't help but become more excited and full of expectations.

Zhang Manping did not hesitate. He quietly looked at the excitement on Ji Ping'an's face, and even he was infected.

"What does the master need from us next? Just instruct all the workers in Zhangjia'ao, including me, to follow your lead."

Zhang Manping said excitedly and Ji Pingan nodded slightly, and then he slowly took out the design drawings he had prepared.

"Next, find some experts in forging, because there can't be any mistakes in what I want to forge, and I will keep an eye on it here."

"After helping me forge this thing, all participants will receive a reward."

When Ji Ping An said such words, Zhang Manping became even more excited. He immediately turned around and went to find the forging master Ji Ping An needed.

Now in the entire Zhangjia'ao, there are almost all forging masters that Ji Ping'an said.

Zhang Manping knew that Ji Ping'an was definitely not a careless person, so his next choice would definitely be a very powerful master among masters.

About half the time it took to burn the incense, Zhang Manping brought three people.

The three of them are not much different in age from Zhang Manping.

"These are the three brothers who are in charge of the family, Ah Da, Ah Er and Ah San. The three of them are recognized as the brothers with the best forging skills in the entire Zhangjia'ao."

Zhang Manping said excitedly.

Ji Ping'an was very satisfied and nodded slowly, then took out his design drawings.

These people had never looked at the design drawings before, but Ji Ping'an had already taught them how to look at them.

Now even people in this village who have not gone to school can easily see what the drawings mean.

With a little explanation, they can all forge according to the drawings.

"The next thing I want to forge is a relatively large machine, which first requires a lot of steel."

"Currently, we don't have too much steel, only enough to forge some parts, so during this period of time, I need you to forge the first part I need."

After Ji Ping'an finished speaking, the three brothers naturally didn't say much and nodded slightly.

Next, under Ji Ping'an's arrangement, the three brothers began to forge steam engines.

On the one hand, they were forging steam engines, and on the other hand, other villagers also mobilized, and everyone worked hard in one place to start forging more steel.

The entire Zhangjia'ao has been completely transformed into an industrial village.

All the villagers here are familiar with the forging just now, and they can easily forge anything they want.

Moreover, Zhangjia'ao has completely changed now, completely different from the previous poverty-stricken situation.

After another half a month, the villagers forged a large amount of steel. With the joint efforts of Ji Ping'an and the three brothers, they finally forged all the parts.

After those parts were forged, the villagers were very curious because parts of various sizes were scattered all over the place.

No one knew what those parts were for, but they only did what Ji Ping'an asked them to do, and there would be absolutely nothing wrong if they followed it.

Ji Ping'an saw that all the parts had been forged, and he started building the steam engine directly.

Ji Ping'an guided the villagers to assemble all the parts together.

The assembly process was much easier than the forging process. It took less than a day to assemble the steam engine.

The three brothers were all surprised. The thing they had been forging for so long turned out to be like a big iron bucket when assembled.

There are many strange pipes connected outside.

Ah Da couldn't bear it any longer, so he directly came to Ji Ping'an's side.

"Boss, what exactly is this thing you asked us to forge? This iron barrel looks too strange. What's the use of so many pipes?"

Ji Ping'an looked at the confusion on his face at this moment.

There was a mysterious color on his face, and he said slowly and deliberately: "This thing is very useful. With it, you will be able to forge anything with less effort."

After he finished speaking, he asked Zhang Manping to immediately start filling the big iron bucket with water.

Ji Ping'an placed the entire steam engine where the forging was, and the water pipes had already been connected. They connected the water pipes and opened the valve directly.

All the water went into the steam engine.

Then he began to operate the steam engine.

He asked the workers around him to start adding firewood to the steam engine.

As a large amount of firewood was added, the flames rose, and then the steam engine began to steam continuously.

The hot air keeps pushing upwards, which naturally brings a certain amount of pressure.

The steam engine began to work, and the pressure pushed the blast box that burned the fire.

The fire in the steel-forging furnace suddenly grew strong.

In addition, the pressure pushes the huge hammer to slowly open, making it more convenient to bring down this manpower.

Humans only need to operate the steam engine and pay attention to the pressure of the steam and the direction of the steam's power.

Leaving two or three people alone to start forging had just completely liberated many people.

Previously, the entire forging process required at least a dozen people.

Now three people can handle it all.

When the workers saw such a magical machine, they were very shocked.

"It's so powerful. What is this thing? How can it be so powerful?"

“He did all our work.”

"If such a powerful thing does our job, then we have nothing to do."
