People in the Three Kingdoms, start to capture Jiangdong

Ma Jun said respectfully.

Satisfied, Sun Ce asked Ma Jun to continue introducing the invention.

"It's red bricks, and the process of making them."

Ma Jun introduced another thing about this production base.

"The cost of red bricks is only one-tenth of that of blue bricks.

Various properties are stronger than green bricks.

Raw materials are also easier to find.

The most important processes are much less.

Can be mass produced. "

"Nice job."

When Sun Ce saw the red brick, his eyes brightened, and he praised Ma Jun loudly.

Bricks are an important material for building a house.

But in this era, most people make houses with wood or clay.

Only big families can afford bricks.

Because blue bricks are expensive.

quite expensive.

The output is also very small.

Sun Ce's next plan needs to consume a lot of bricks.

If it is the blue brick before.

It will definitely cost a lot.

And even if Sun Ce can afford the price.

The blue bricks needed could not be bought either.

Production is limited.

Now with red bricks.

Sun Ce doesn't have to worry about bricks.

"Ma Jun, you have done a great job.

I want to reward you heavily.

Ten thousand taels of gold, thousands of acres of fertile land, how about raising your official position by one level? "

Sun Ce looked at Ma Jun and said with a smile.

"It's all up to the master."

Ma Jun said calmly.

Ma Jun is not interested in money, only in science and invention.

"Then it's settled.

When I go back, let Xun You bring it to you. "

Sun Ce said with a smile.

"Thank you, my lord, for your gift."

Thanks Ma Jun.

Next, Ma Jun took Sun Ce to leave the production base.

Came to another production base.

Before people arrived, a heat wave came.

"This is a metallurgical site."

Ma Jun introduced.

"In the past, charcoal was used in metallurgy, and coal was rarely used.

Based on your instructions, we develop the value of coal.

Coal burns and is able to provide higher and longer lasting temperatures than charcoal.

Most importantly, coal is naturally occurring.

As long as you find a coal mine, you can get a lot of coal at low cost.

Charcoal is man-made, and its cost is much higher than that of coal.

The Tiangongyuan reformed the iron-smelting furnace and increased the blast.

Plus using coal as fuel.

The metallurgical efficiency has been greatly improved!

In modern times, there are ten iron-making furnaces in Tiangongyuan.

Thousands of catties of iron can be smelted from iron ore every day!

If you have more iron furnaces.

Iron production can go up! "

"One thousand catties of iron a day, can there be more?"

Sun Ce was very pleasantly surprised.

If so much iron can be produced.

Then he doesn't have to worry about raw materials for his next plan.

"There is a copper furnace, there is a steel furnace..."

Ma Jun introduced other things to Sun Ce.

Generally speaking, this metallurgical base is already quite developed.

No matter what metal it is, it is being developed.

"Very well, the artisans who participated in the development of metallurgical technology will be greatly rewarded."

Sun Ce could not stop nodding when he heard Ma Jun's report.

The ultimate generous reward.

"This subordinate thanked the lord for them."

Ma Jun cupped his hands and said.

"Also, you have to continue to study metallurgical technology in depth.

Strive to increase the output of iron, copper and other metals. "

Sun Ce ordered.

Although a thousand catties of iron a day is quite amazing in this era.

There is not as much iron produced by Tiangongyuan in the whole world.

But compared with modern society.

There is still a huge gap in the metallurgical technology of Tiangongyuan.

After all, any metallurgical plant in modern society.

Hundreds of thousands of catties of iron can be produced casually every day.

"Please rest assured, my lord.

Tiangongyuan will be as you expect.

Continuously improve technology. "

Ma Jun responded with a solemn expression.

"Well, take me to the thermal weapons research base."

Sun Ce laughed.

"No, my lord, please come with me."

Ma Jun nodded and led the way.

Not long after, Sun Ce followed Ma Jun to a relatively open place.

There was a table with three long weapons on it.

There is also a behemoth next to the table.

The whole body is made of iron.

"Muskets, artillery."

Sun Ce recognized what was in front of him at a glance.

Sun Ce couldn't help but get excited.

After all, this is muskets and artillery.

It's a hot weapon.

Leaving aside muskets, the power of artillery is definitely strong enough.

One shot down.

If hit the target.

Even if the opponent is Lu Bu, he has to kneel!
