Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 225: Unexpected greetings
That's it.
Xia Fan immediately understood the other party’s method of distinguishing steel-judging toughness and hardness by bending plasticity and steel brazing. Pig iron is easy to fracture, and wrought iron is too soft. Only the characteristics of steel can meet the requirements. These two points are both tough and tough.
Under conditions where the carbon content cannot be determined, the experience of the blacksmith is the most reliable criterion.
"All the iron in Jinxia City has been refined at one time. If this news is passed to the Ministry of Engineering, those old guys can definitely scare off their jaws." Mo Yun is also very excited. She specializes in organ manufacturing. For more than a year, I naturally knew the meaning behind mass production.
"I think their first reaction is to refuse to believe and think we are deliberately cheating."
Ning Wanjun replied with a smile.
She was also very happy, but the reasons for being happy were slightly different. In addition to being able to produce large amounts of steel in his own territory, another point is to be proud of his old friends. After all, being able to come up with a plan in front of the listener, and still get the other's approval, is estimated to be rare in Daqi. Before the organ beast was mass-produced, this furnace could be regarded as Mo Yun's first official achievement after coming to Jinxia City, and she would naturally be pleased with it.
Only Xia Fan was the most peaceful.
In his opinion, it is completely unknown whether this batch of molten iron is considered to be steel, and smelting the second furnace in the same way, there is no guarantee that the same result will be obtained.
After all, its quality depends entirely on the existing pig iron and wrought iron ingots, and it is not surprising that the carbon content fluctuates greatly. In addition, there is no impurity removal during the entire smelting process, and the quality of the finished product is still far from the ideal "steel" of Xia Fan.
Fortunately, this is just getting started.
As he had previously conceived, this batch of crude steels of varying quality will be the starting point for rapid progress in smelting technology. Based on more professional and reliable equipment, it is only a matter of time before steel with controllable quality and superior performance can be produced.
With the continuous delivery of full stone molds, Mo Yun has begun to select the best quality raw steel for his new machinery.
Looking at the person's concentration and joy, Xia Fan always feels that she is not picking hot steel, but shopping in the shopping street where the new products are on sale. At the same time, she can't help but feel a little bit of emotion-it turns out that her expression is cold and sharp. A woman with deep eyebrows will also show such an expression.
At this time, a guard walked to Ning Wanjun, "His Royal Highness, there is a visitor claiming to be the new prefect of Jinxia who wants to see you. His name is Hong Siqi. He has all the documents, appointment and dismissal orders, etc. ."
Hearing this, the princess couldn't help frowning, "Is it handed over to Grandpa Li for inspection?"
"Yes, it has been confirmed, it is not a counterfeit."
Xia Fan saw obvious impatience and boredom in Ning Wanjun's eyes.
He even suspects that the next moment the other party will say "take this person and put him in jail, just as if he has never been here" is not impossible.
But she finally restrained her emotions abruptly, and replied in a deep voice, "Bring him here."
"Yes." The guard walked away.
"The one that should come is here after all." Ning Wanjun sighed somewhat disappointedly, "Although he knows that the court will not let Jinxia City become a blank area under no one's jurisdiction, but to send someone over so soon There are so many officials who say that the staff is idle."
Xia Fan understands the princess's feelings at this moment very well—he finally got rid of the obstacles to get a complete Jinxia City, but now he has to be intervened by the court. Even if the other party fails to succeed in the end, this process is quite disgusting.
"Isn't this something that was expected a long time ago?" He comforted in a relaxed tone, "The General Affairs Bureau was set up for this situation. Your decision is correct. If you catch him or keep the door behind, If you don’t see it, the staff will surely be aware of it. It’s better to put him in the government office, and it’s not true."
"You are right," the princess nodded, "this city no longer belongs to the court."
……
"His Royal Highness, if you have any instructions, the next official will do everything you can, and never evasive!" Hong Siqi said loudly after the salute, not caring about the gazes cast by the surrounding people, "If you feel that the next official The ability is still in doubt, and the subordinates are willing to prove themselves through the training of reserve officers of the General Affairs Bureau!"
Xia Fan and Ning Wanjun looked at each other.
The two imagined many situations, but they didn't expect this one.
The new prefect immediately expressed his attitude after introducing himself. He did not mean that "Jinxia City should be managed by the government", let alone dissatisfaction and resistance to the bureau.
At the position of prefect, most officials have begun to pay attention to their own words and deeds, even if they are facing the royal family, they will not be too humbly, for fear of leaving an impression of lack of character in the eyes of others. Even if you take refuge in the upper ranks, you have to find a private environment, and you will show your thoughts only when you use it implicitly.
Hong Siqi seems to have no worries in this regard.
Such a straightforward declaration of effectiveness made the princess not know how to answer the conversation for a while.
Just as the two were silent, Hong Siqi was quietly looking at the two of them... and the scene on the beach.
Princess Quang Binh and the Privy Council Fu Cheng will not talk about it. The common feature is youth, but he had inquired about it before submitting the invitation, so he didn't feel too surprised.
The melting pot on the beach is even more eye-catching.
He noticed that there was a continuous flow of red liquid from the bottom of the furnace, which should be smelting some kind of metal. Having been an official for so many years, he has also seen what the smelting sites look like: not only are there smog, but there are bare-chested charcoal burners everywhere, and the stove is small and large, standing all over the floor like a cut of tree roots.
This is the first time Hong Siqi has seen this giant furnace.
More importantly, he was stunned that he did not see the black smoke from burning charcoal rising at the scene, but the metal flowing out was endless. It was completely unpredictable how they smelted so many ores at the same time. Can maintain the high temperature inside the furnace.
But he can be sure of one thing.
From today, Yancheng has produced more than just salt.
Hong Siqi vaguely realized that all the differences he saw had the same reason—the past experience could have little effect on the city, and everything he saw in front of him Let him confirm his decision. If he is not decisive anymore, he may not even have the opportunity to meet the princess ~ IndoMTL.com~ Who to play for is not a question he needs to struggle with.
The key is how to get more benefits from it.
What do you think?
Ning Wanjun asked Xia Fan with her eyes.
Xia Fan tapped his chin slightly.
The princess immediately understood his thoughts and turned to the new prefect, and said, "Master Hong, the government office lost too much in the last catastrophe. I am afraid it will be difficult to recover for a long time. If you let you follow the government , Will you be too wronged--"
"No grievances, no grievances at all. Only a state capital has a Privy Council. The essence of the government is equivalent to that of the prefecture. How could I feel aggrieved." Hong Siqi directly arched his hands to Xia Fan." Master Xia, please take more care of you in the future."
"Each, each other." Xia Fan arched his hands in return.
"I see that there are many people in front of the bureau, and the receptionists are overwhelmed. I think the manpower in the mansion must be quite nervous." He didn't think of himself as an outsider, "If there is anything I can help, Just mention it."
Xia Fan pondered for a moment, "In fact, there is something imminent, but I can't find anyone to do it for the time being."
Recommend, [MicMicReadingapp\] It’s really good, it’s worth installing one for all book friends, and both Android and iPhone support!
"Oh? I would like to hear the details."
"I heard that Leizhou seems to have suffered a military disaster. A large number of people fled eastward, and some have already crossed the border of Shenzhou. If no one takes them in, it is estimated that they will soon reach the vicinity of Jinxia City."
"Do you want me to disperse those refugees?" Hong Siqi said without hesitation, "Don't worry, I have a lot of experience about this——"
"No." Xia Fan interrupted him, "I hope you can assist the Bureau to accommodate them and settle them properly."
