Heavenly Dao Formula

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 meet both of these points. , Both tough and tough.

Under conditions where carbon content cannot be determined, the experience of a blacksmith is the most reliable criterion.

"I have made all the iron in Jinxia City at one time. If this news goes to the Ministry of Engineering, those old guys can definitely scare the jaw off." Mo Yun was also very excited. She specialized in organ manufacturing for more than ten years. Naturally know the meaning behind mass production.

"I think their first reaction is to refuse to believe it and think we are deliberately cheating."

Ning Wanjun replied with a smile.

She was also very happy, but the reason for being happy was slightly different. In addition to being able to produce steel on a large scale in his own territory, he is also 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 probably 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 with the same method cannot guarantee the same result.

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 with different qualities 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 filled stone molds, Mo Yun has begun to select the best quality raw steel for his new machinery.

Looking at the other party’s concentration and joy, Xia Fan always felt that she was not picking hot steel, but was visiting the commercial street where the new products were released. At the same time, she couldn’t help feeling a little bit-the expression was cold, with sharp eyebrows and deep eyes. Women will also show this 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, and he has all the documents, appointment and dismissal orders."

Upon hearing this, the princess couldn't help frowning, "Did it be checked by Grandpa Li?"

"Yes, it has been confirmed, it is not a fake."

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 a big 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 I know that the court will not let Jinxia City become a blank area under no one's jurisdiction, I can only say that people are sent over so soon. There are so many officials who are idle."

Xia Fan understood the princess's feelings at this moment very well—he finally got rid of the obstacles and obtained the complete Jinxia City, but now the court has to intervene. 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, you The ministry will definitely be aware of it, so 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, you must do your best to subordinate officials, and never evade!" Hong Siqi said loudly after the salute, not caring about the eyes cast by everyone around him, "If you think you have the ability to subordinate officials In doubt, the lower officials are also 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 stated his attitude after introducing himself, and he had no intention of "Jinxia City should have been 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 if you are subtle.

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.

When the two were silent, Hong Siqi was quietly looking at the two... and the scene on the beach.

The Princess Quang Binh and the Privy Councillord will not talk about it. The common feature is youthfulness, 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. After serving as an official for so many years, he has also seen what the smelting site looks like: not only is it sooty, but also full of bare-chested charcoal burners, 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 didn't 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 and could still maintain it. The inside of the furnace is hot.

But one thing he can be sure of.

From today on, Yancheng will produce more than just salt.

Hong Siqi vaguely realized that all the differences he saw had the same reason-past experience might have little effect on the city, and everything he saw before him confirmed After making his own decision, if he is not decisive, he may not even have the opportunity to meet the princess ~www.ltnovel.com~ Who to work 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 that it will be difficult to recover for a long time. If you are asked to follow the government, you will not. I will wrong you too much—"

"No grievances, no grievances at all. Only the capital of a state has a Privy Council. The essence of the government is equivalent to that of the prefecture. How could I feel wronged." Hong Siqi directly handed over to Xia Fan, "Master Xia, Please take care of it in the future."

"Mother, each other." Xia Fan arched his hands in return.

"I see that there are many people in front of the bureau, and the receptionist can be described as overwhelming. I think the manpower in the mansion must be quite tense." He did not think of himself as an outsider. "If there is anything I can help, please mention it. ."

Xia Fan pondered for a moment, "In fact, there is something imminent, but I can't find anyone to do it temporarily."

Under the recommendation, [\\mi\\mi\\reading\\app\\\\] is really good, it is worth installing one for book friends, and Android and Apple phones support it!

"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."
