Daming: Start with an Altar of Luck

Chapter 17 New Drawings and New Materials

"Father, that man is still under General Erhu!" Zhu Biao was a little embarrassed.

"Erhu, what's the matter with you, why do you treat this like this." Old Zhu obviously didn't know what his name was, so he could only glance at Zhu Biao.

"Ban Zhu, Master Ban Zhu."

"Yes, hurry up and help the class master up." Lao Zhu said hastily.

Erhu got up immediately, and at the same time helped the old man under his control up, and kept saying sorry during the process of helping.

"Grassman Ban Zhu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty." After Ban Zhu got up, he didn't mean to blame the two tigers. As for blaming Old Zhu, Ban Zhu didn't dare to give Ban Zhu ten more courage.

"Mianli, did you forge this saber?" Old Zhu understood that if this saber could be mass-produced, the Northern Expeditionary Army would be able to regain their homeland faster.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is Caomin, but without the materials provided by His Royal Highness, the Caomin would not be able to forge such a precious sword." Ban Zhu honestly explained the reason, and he dared not be greedy for the credit of His Highness Mo. .

Although after these few days of contact, Ban Zhu also discovered that Zhu Biao is a very easy-going person, and his thoughts are very unconstrained, but the prince is still the prince, and the grassroots are just grassroots.

"Huh?" Lao Zhu was a little puzzled. Although Zhu Biao had told him roughly before, Lao Zhu had been immersed in the shock of the altar of luck a few days ago, and didn't pay much attention to other things. Naturally, I was at a loss.

"Father, this is not a place to talk. I will explain to you later." Zhu Biao said to Lao Zhu first, and then told Ban Zhu: "Master Ban, now it is proved that there is no problem in blast furnace steelmaking. You organize the manpower to start mass production, and at the same time teach the method of casting units to the military bureau, and I will arrange it here."

"The grassroots obey the order." Ban Zhu replied respectfully.

"Father, let's talk to you about the cause and effect of this matter while we are walking." Zhu Biao also needs to ask Lao Zhu for some trivial matters, such as the matter of making the Military War Bureau cooperate in the production of ordnance, if there is no order from Lao Zhu , Bingzhanju will definitely not use the steel produced by Zhu Biao to make weapons.

"Congratulations to the emperor~"

The father and son on the side of the island talked while walking. As for Erhu and other followers, they were driven 30 meters away by Lao Zhu to take precautions.

"So that's it. That is to say, the quality of the steel produced by the blast furnace you got is very good, and the output is not low. How long would it take to re-equip all the troops in the capital?" Old Zhu also wondered when he heard Zhu Biao's story. Come to understand, so what Lao Zhu is most concerned about now is when he can change the outfits of all the troops of Ming Dynasty.

"Two months, the early stage will be slower, but I suggest giving priority to supplying Xu Shuai's Northern Expedition army, shortening the Northern Expedition time, can also save a lot of food for the Ming people, and reduce the death rate of our Daming army." Zhu Biao said. After some calculations in my mind, I gave Lao Zhu's answer for two months.

"It is true that the supply of the Northern Expeditionary Army should be prioritized, but the ministries guarding the capital must not be left behind. By the way, Tang He made a note yesterday, saying that the power of gunpowder has been greatly improved. Let's send people to the Bingzhan Bureau. Yu Yu said that you did it too, do you know about it?"

"Well, the father is indeed the son of the minister. A few days ago, the minister went to the military bureau to select personnel. It happened that Mr. Qian went to the military bureau to ask for an explanation because the power of the gunpowder had declined. The minister improved the gunpowder. improved." Zhu Biao said modestly.

"Okay, Biao'er is really worthy of being our son, the crown prince of Ming Dynasty. As for the gunpowder, we have already let the Bingzhan Bureau fully produce it to supply the Northern Expedition. Now with this incomparably sharp weaponry, our Northern Expedition army of the Ming Dynasty will be invincible. We can conquer everything." Lao Zhu was also a little excited, since ancient times, there is no one who has conquered the north from the south except Daming.

"Peng~Peng" Lao Zhu patted Zhu Biao's shoulder vigorously.

"It's Daming's luck to have Biao'er." Old Zhu thought for a while and said something that surprised even Zhu Biao.

"Biao'er, we have issued an order today to ask Shanzhang to arrange a northern tour. In a few days, you will accompany us on the northern tour to see the land of Ming Dynasty."

"I obey the order." Zhu Biao returned immediately.

"Okay, that's it for today. Let's go back. If you need anything, please tell us directly. Dad, I will definitely support you with all my strength." After Lao Zhu finished speaking, he patted Zhu Biao's shoulder again and walked towards the way he came. go.

"Thank you dad." Zhu Biao was also deeply moved by Lao Zhu's sudden and emotional words.

And Lao Zhu, who was walking on the way he came, shuddered slightly when he heard Zhu Biao's "Thank you dad", and then resumed his straight spine and continued to walk out.

Zhu Biao stood where he was, and didn't prepare to return to the Science and Technology Bureau until he saw Lao Zhu's figure disappear. It was time to give him the blueprint that he had promised Ban Laoban earlier.

It just so happened that today Zhu Biao deliberately brought a few more drawings and material production methods, and handed them all over to Ban Zhu. When he and old Zhu Bei come back from the tour, they will probably be able to see the finished product.

Among them is a blueprint that Zhu Biao has just drawn after working overtime for the past two days. As for whether it can be made, he will have to wait until he communicates with the old man Ban to know.

Zhu Biao had just returned to the Science and Technology Bureau, and was about to find the old man Ban Zhu, but he didn't expect that the old man, after arranging the production tasks, took the initiative to wait for Zhu Biao at the gate of the Science and Technology Bureau.

"Your Highness, the blast furnace has been casted, and after that, a large number of casting blast furnaces can start production. I don't know when the other blueprints mentioned by His Royal Highness will be handed over to the old man." Ban Zhu directly stopped Zhu Biao who was about to enter the Science and Technology Bureau.

"Haha, why is Master Ban so restless? Let's go, let's go. I brought the blueprints and I'm going to discuss with Master Class." Zhu Biao comforted him with a smile.

"Your Highness, please." Ban Zhu excitedly followed Zhu Biao and walked towards the Science and Technology Bureau.

"Okay, a blueprint, a material production plan, you can take a look." Zhu Biao took out the blueprint in his arms and handed it to Ban Zhu.

"Cement?" Ban Zhu looked at the two large characters written on the first piece of paper.

Ban Zhu continued to read with doubts, and the more he looked, the more confused he became. Lime is used as a medicinal material. When did he hear that lime can be used to build roads and houses.

It was not until he saw the suction kiln painted by Zhu Biao that Ban Zhu's eyes began to light up. This is another pioneering work no less than a blast furnace, which can greatly increase the temperature inside the kiln.
