Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 159
Ding ding bang bang.

Rhythmic beating sounds resounded throughout the workshop.

Li Xian took the rivets and directed two craftsmen to fasten the scalp around it. To ensure heat preservation, the furnace core was covered with yellow mud and plant ash.A simple coal stove can be made.

"It's done!"

Apart from the fact that the outside is too obtrusive, everything is reproduced according to the model of later generations, and Li Xian is quite satisfied.

Standing in the shed, Li Xian looked at the formed coal stove, raised the corners of his lips, and showed a smile.

Now, just waiting for the yellow mud of the coal stove to warm up and dry, you can sit at home in the severe winter and cook hot pot, chatting about life, how beautiful it is!

The sound of jingling and beating disappeared in a moment, and after half a month, these craftsmen also wanted to see what they had built.

The uneven iron surface is surrounded by yellow mud, and the center of the hollow is black, which is really difficult for people to understand.

The simple and honest blacksmith scratched his head, holding a hammer in his hand and pointing to the coal stove he handed over.

"Mr. Li, this is a coal stove, how to use it?"

"This is much smaller than the stove in our house... The stove in our house can be gathered together by women and children in the cold winter, and it is so warm that we don't want to get up."

"But I'm afraid you can't even fit a log, how do you burn it? And this iron cylinder, is it possible that the heat can be transmitted into the house?"

Most of the craftsmen are poor householders who know how to burn kilns, so they naturally compare this heating coal stove with a stove.

Chimney heat transfer?

Li Xian was dumbfounded by such honest and honest words.

If this thing is used for heating, I'm afraid that in winter, the faces will be as black as the bottom of a pot, and if they show up at night, they will be scared to death by the black faces at home.

Anyway, this is not a secret, so Li Xian simply popularized it.

"This thing is not for burning wood. You will know when the coal arrives the next day."

"Thanks to everyone's hard work, when the briquettes are made, each person in our workshop will have a coal stove to ensure that they can sleep peacefully this winter. The wife and children will keep the house warm and won't wake up from freezing at night."

The poor people are simple in heart and know Li Xian's ability.

As for the briquette and how to use it, no one came to control it, and they all applauded.

When rewards came, each craftsman also consciously returned to their respective posts, picked up the hammer, and worked harder.

The craftsmen didn't ask, but it didn't mean that Cheng Chumo also vaguely figured it out. Seeing the blacksmiths dispersed, he walked around the coal stove twice, frowned, and pulled Li Xian aside.

"Brother Li, don't fool people."

"How does this thing burn coal? The coal is added in large pieces. This thing with a big mouth can burn coal?"

"Besides, this charcoal has poisonous smoke, so you just add it in like this? Can't kill people?"

Before Li Xian could answer, Cheng Chumo asked the young man again.

"What's the matter with this briquette? Could it be that it is used to deal with poisonous smoke?"

"But it won't work. How much charcoal can be burned in this place that is not big enough? Can it be warmed?"

Li Xian put his middle finger on his lips, signaling Cheng Chu to keep silent.

After finally getting out of Prince Jin's Mansion and getting rid of a small troubled boy, why did he meet another one in the workshop?
Glancing at the energetic craftsmen in the workshop, Li Xian held up the paper umbrella and walked out of the shed.

"You kid, don't think about these things all day long."

"Take good care of the production. When the honeycomb coal is made in the future, we can eat hot pot and chat."

"Take a good look at the workshop. Later, I will submit a blueprint to make a device for making briquettes. I have been away for a few days. I will go back to the Ministry of Industry to have a look."

……

in the military camp.

what!Hey!call!
Vigorous and powerful voices resounded outside the tent, Li Jingan sat on the chair, looked at the writing on the desk, and frowned.

There was a comedy in the training yesterday, which made many soldiers in the barracks feel ashamed and complained everywhere.

In addition to the heavy-duty journey yesterday, there were nearly 20 soldiers who were not physically fit enough to collapse.

When they returned to the barracks, many soldiers looked pale, and some soldiers even vomited acid water from their stomachs, in extreme embarrassment.

Originally, there was still a need to sort out the content of the dormitory, but when Li Jing saw those soldiers who were staggering around, he had to give up temporarily.

Looking across the hundreds of withdrawal lists piled up in the corner of the Android, Li Jing's heart wavered.

The effect of high-intensity training is still unknown, and so many people have left, whether the method Xian'er gave will work...

Thoughts were wandering, Li Jing slowly leaned back in the chair, recalling the words of those soldiers outside the battalion yesterday, and kneaded his forehead with his big hands.

wow.

The captain lifted the curtain and walked in, striding forward, standing upright.

"Report to the general, the soldiers have finished training in military boxing."

"The soldiers memorized it completely."

The incense ash on the corner of the desk was blown off by the wind blown by the walkers, and scattered all over the table.

Li Jing stared at the gradually dimming red dot on the incense, feeling relieved in his heart.

The high-intensity training was finally not in vain, at least it worked.

The moment the sad face was removed from the palm, it regained its previous sternness, the tiger eyes swept over the standing captain, and said in a deep voice.

"Pass down the order and repeat yesterday's training camp until someone can complete it within a stick of incense!"

The captain frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and cupped his hands.

"promise!"

Just as he was about to step out of the tent, a softer voice came over.

"Lieutenant Wang, how are you... injured?"

The figure who turned his head to leave suddenly choked, and turned his head with a warm smile on his face.

"Let the general worry about it. It's not a serious problem. We are in the barracks with rough skin and thick flesh. We can still bear it."

Sometimes, what the lower-level captains want is not a free and unrestrained life.

Everyone knows that once they step into the barracks, it will be the beginning of blood licking with the tip of the knife, and if they are too idle, they will die on the battlefield.

But everyone didn't want their generals in their hearts, but they wanted Li Jing to be so cold-blooded and ruthless before, and even looked coldly at his subordinates who were covered with bruises, and remained indifferent.

At this moment, these words are like a warm current in the cold winter, which makes the captain feel warm in his heart, and a knowing smile floats on his cheek.

There was not much change on Li Jing's face, he gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Yesterday everyone was tired, and I didn't have a few bites for dinner. Today I ordered the dining room to reopen the small stove, and there is meat for every meal. Tell everyone that there is not enough to add more."

"but……"

Li Jing raised his face, glanced at the overjoyed captain, and continued.

"But training matters cannot be discounted!"

Hearing this, the school captain only felt that Li Jing actually cared about his soldiers in his heart.

It's just that his status as a general dictates that he must establish absolute prestige among soldiers, so he is so serious!
It seemed that in an instant, the feeling of suffocation in my heart was released, and the whole person became extremely relaxed!
The captain lifted his cloak and cupped his hands.

"Wang thanked General Li on behalf of all the soldiers!"
