My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 302: Supreme Virtue
Fu Linjun opened the box, his expression became solemn and serious.

She held out a brand from inside. It was golden yellow and looked like it was made of gold. There were some lines on the side of the brand, which looked noble and mysterious.

Fu Linjun solemnly handed the sign to Wang Xiujuan.

Wang Xiujuan was also infected by the other party's emotions, and she stretched out her hands to take it.

After the sign was taken over by Wang Xiujuan, Fu Linjun said: "This is made by the general."

Wang Xiujuan was also literate, and she saw a big golden sign with the words "High World's Virtue" written on it.

Wang Xiujuan was a little stunned. Chang Yuan's evaluation of her was too high. How could she afford such high-level virtues?
She knew very well that she was not noble at all, and everything she did was to make their family live a better life.

"Mrs. Fu, I cannot accept this reward from the general. My old lady cannot bear such great praise."

Fu Linjun was smiling and grateful.

"No, Aunt Wang, you can bear it. No one can bear such praise more than you. Once the pumpkin comes out, as long as it is promoted more, there will be another food on the people's tables in the future, and there will be another food in the famine years. .”

"There is also fish and rice farming. Fish and rice are farmed together. This is unheard of before. But you not only donate it for free, but also selflessly teach it to the world. If people like you are not considered to be virtuous, then there is Who can be called the most virtuous person in the world?"

"This is not just about adding another kind of food and increasing food production, it is a life-saving method for countless living people."

For Lin Jun, no weapon is as important as these solid grains.

Chang Yuan was busy in the front, and Fu Linjun was busy in the rear. After he took the time to report Wang Xiujuan's affairs, Chang Yuan had been thinking about how to reward Wang Xiujuan. Of course, the money was not less, but this was a bit tacky. In the end, Chang Yuan said That’s when I came up with this brand.

……

"The roads on this mountain have been repaired. This is my first time here." Ning Changrong looked around as he walked. This place has changed a lot. Everywhere is tightly guarded and not a fly can fly in.

"Why are these people sitting in the mine car?" Ning Changrong pointed to the workers sitting inside the mine car when it was getting on and off.

Ning Qingxi explained: "They hung ropes in the mine carts and tied them up when going up and down the mountain. I told them it was a safety hazard, but they just didn't believe it and had to sit on it. But it's okay so far. Nothing dangerous happened. Anyway, I don’t dare to sit, and dad, you are not allowed to sit either.”

"Your father, I haven't lived enough yet." Ning Changrong would not do such a dangerous thing by moving away.

Looking at the mine cart sliding down the mountain, the people sitting in the mine car looked like they were enjoying themselves. Ning Daniu was a little eager to give it a try, but after looking at Ning Changrong and Ning Qingxi beside him, he gave up. More than anything else, protecting Ning Changrong and Ning Qingxi was more important.

After the three of them reached the original checkpoint, they passed various inspections along the way. In the end, Ning Daniu was blocked outside, and only Ning Changrong and Ning Qingxi could enter.

"It's okay, Daniel, the defense here is so tight, there is no danger at all. Just wait for us outside." Ning Changrong ordered.

Ning Daniu glanced helplessly at the person who stopped him, and after thinking about it, he could only wait outside with his arms folded.

"Master Lu." As soon as Ning Qingxi and Ning Changrong came in, they saw Lu Cui walking towards them in a hurry.

Ning Changrong also called out and nodded to the other party.

Lu Jiu hurriedly greeted Ning Changrong, "Miss Ning, you're finally here, come with me."

Ning Qingxi and the other two followed him and unexpectedly came under a blast furnace.

Black smoke was rising from the stove, and the temperature was very high. Before I even got close to the stove, I felt a wave of heat hitting my face.

"It's the furnace in front." Lu Cui pointed to the slightly lower blast furnace in front. "The molten iron will be produced soon, Miss Ning, come and see if this is the method of refining molten iron you mentioned."

The three of them walked in and saw a worker carefully holding a container and pouring the molten iron into the previously prepared mold.

Ning Changrong subconsciously blocked Ning Qingxi behind him, for fear that he would be injured.

The molten iron was poured into the mold one by one, and then the last three people looked forward.Lu Ji watched happily as the molten iron gradually cooled and finally took shape.

"How about Miss Ning? It should be the molten iron you mentioned, right?"

This was the first time in Lu Ji's life that he had seen iron turn into water. This was not the first time they had made molten iron, but they had failed several times before and there was no container that could hold the molten iron.

Later, Ning Qingxi reminded him to use some refractory materials to make crucible tongs, and then he successfully took out the boiled molten iron.

"Yes, this should be considered a successful refining."

The original smelting technology was not enough. It was not only a problem with some furnaces but also with the burning materials. In the past, blast furnaces usually used wood and the like to burn blast furnaces. Now they use charcoal. If used indoors, it may cause suffocation. Problem, but now in the open air, not only is there no danger to life, but it can also increase the temperature and reduce impurities in steel.

"Okay, let's wait for the template to cool down for a while, and let's try to see how hard the material is."

Several people waited patiently for the craftsman to cool down the molten iron formwork nearby, and then smashed the formwork to reveal the iron block inside. A craftsman used a big hammer to temper the iron block. It was originally a long piece of iron. With the swing of the hammer, it gradually took the shape of a broadsword.

The tinkling sound rang in everyone's ears.

After a while, after installing the handle, a large knife appeared.

Lu Ji picked up the long sword, which was about the same weight as an ordinary weapon.

Then a soldier was called and asked to use a newly made weapon to slash at the wooden pile standing aside.

The soldier swung it very hard and chopped it several times, until the wooden pile was about to break.

"How do you feel?" Lu Ji asked.

The soldier looked happy and reluctantly handed the long knife back to Lu Cui, "It's very sharp."

"How does it compare to the one you have?"

The soldier lowered his head and thought for a while, "Stronger."

Lu Jiu thoughtfully called over another soldier, "You two will chop each other with swords."

He handed the newly made long knife back to the soldier.

One person is holding a newly made sword, and the other is holding an old knife made by previous craftsmanship.

The two looked at each other and rushed toward each other with their knives in hand.

"Ding!"

The two knives collided, emitting fierce sparks.

"Ding!"

This is the sound of a knife hitting the ground.

In the eyes of everyone, the soldier holding the old sword only had half of the sword left in his hand. The other half of his sword was chopped over and fell to the ground.

"It's so sharp and hard!" Lu Ji said in surprise.

"Great! Miss Ning, this matter must be reported to the general immediately!"

The man Lu Ji summoned was no ordinary big-headed soldier. The weapons in his hands were also made of hundreds of steel, but now the steel was not as good as the sword made of molten iron in their hands!
