Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Regarding the rust prevention issue asked by Zhao Ran, Yang Cunxin was well prepared and immediately took Zhao Ran to a house. From a distance, Zhao Ran smelled the fragrance of osmanthus.

    The house is very large, consisting of more than ten connected rooms. Inside, there are three Huangguan monks from Taixuan Pavilion facing a set of strange-shaped alchemy furnaces, constantly producing various magic formulas and ingredients.

    After watching for a moment, the three monks extinguished the alchemy fire, and a thick transparent glue-filled liquid flowed from a bamboo tube at the bottom of the alchemy furnace. They filled nine cans in a row before calling it a day.

    Yang Cuxin introduced that this is Jiuhe lacquer refined by Taixuan Hall. It is made from lacquer sap, which is a specialty of Taiping Mountain in Yuanzhou, as well as more than ten auxiliary materials such as cinnamon ore.  The scent you smell is due to the addition of osmanthus to cover up the pungent smell of Jiuhe lacquer.  When she was refining the rune steel just now, she added a little jiuhe paint. With the addition of jiuhe paint, the rune steel would be difficult to rust.

    Yang Cunxin said: "This is a nine-liter clay pot. One furnace of Jiuhe lacquer can produce eighty-one liters. Our Taixuan Hall can make one furnace per month."

    This trip to Taixuan Pavilion really opened Zhao Ran's eyes and gained a lot, but people's hearts are not satisfied, and the same is true for Zhao Ran. After solving the problems of the cable stay and the Zhu Keel, he went one step further,  Want to solve the steel plate problem.

    This batch of steel plates used to lay bridges does not require complex Taoist craftsmanship like rune steel plates and steel plates. The only requirement is large quantity.

    "Can Taixuan Pavilion refine a batch of ordinary steel plates?"

    "Ordinary steel plate?"

    "It doesn't need such complicated functions. It's just ordinary, I use it to lay the bridge body of the bridge. It doesn't need to be carved with runes, it doesn't need to be extremely hard, it doesn't need to be particularly resistant to high temperatures or severe cold, as long as it can prevent rust - that's it.  Just add Jiuhe paint.¡±

    Yang Cuxin frowned: "You can ask someone outside to make such a steel plate. As far as I know, many private blacksmith workshops can make it. As for anti-rust, I can give you some Jiuhe paint after you collect it.  You just need to refine it and add it once."

    Zhao Ran said: "No, I need a lot of it."

    "It's also one hundred thousand catties?"

    "The first batch will be 100,000 kilograms, and from now on it will be more than one million kilograms."

    Yang Cun thought carefully and said: "Such a steel plate is easy to make. It has a single consumable and few refining steps. It shouldn't be difficult to make one hundred thousand kilograms. But the problem is that it requires too much ore and I don't have time to mine it."

    Zhao Ran said: "What I'm worried about is whether there are so many iron ores in the Qibao Mountain you just mentioned."

    Rong Niang said: "Xiao Cunxin, take us to Qibao Mountain to have a look."

    Qibao Mountain is not far from Jiuxian Grottoes Mountain. Yang Cuxin took Zhao Ran and Rong Niang to a cave at the foot of Qibao Mountain. There were obvious traces of man-made excavations at the entrance of the cave, which was enlarged.

    Entering along the cave, there is a straight path inside the cave. From time to time, you can see small magic circles with talismans on the top of the cave or on both sides.  No need for Yang Cunxin to explain, Zhao Ran could tell at a glance that it was the most basic earth-based magic circle. It could be composed of three or five earth-fixing charms and was used to stabilize and harden the earth and rocks to prevent the cave from collapsing.

    Zhao Ran has been studying various earth-based magic formations recently. The several earth-based magic formations he prepared for building the bridge are much more complicated than the ones set up here, and the cost is of course much higher, so he walked around and looked at them.  While thinking about it, I plan to learn from the earth-fixing magic circle here to see if I can reduce the cost.

    Monk mining is very precise in searching for mineral veins. This mine in Qibao Mountain is like this. It penetrates directly into the richest mineral vein in Qibao Mountain. At the end of the several forks, you can dig it out with a hoe.  are all high-quality ores.

    After taking Zhao Ran and Rong Niang to look around, Yang Cunxin said: "Taixuan Pavilion has been digging this vein for three hundred years. It will not be a problem to dig it for another three hundred or one thousand years in the future."

    ¡°Three hundred years or one thousand years sounds deceptive, but after careful calculation, the actual mining volume is not much.  The annual steel-making volume of the Etaixuan Hall is only 30 million kilograms of iron ore in three hundred years. Zhao Ran quickly compared it in his mind with the concept of tonnage that he was more familiar with. The total amount was tens of thousands of tons.  This amount of mining will not be completed in three hundred or thirty thousand years, let alone another three hundred or one thousand years.

    But from today on, everything will be different. Zhao Ran will use huge purchases to put Taixuan Pavilion on the fast track of Ming Dynasty development.

    "If I find people to mine and provide Taixuan Pavilion with a steady stream of ore, how much ordinary steel can you make in a day? Well, it is equivalent to the so-called hundred steel smelting in the folk."

    "This kind of steel is very easy to refine. For example, it is not difficult for me to refine a thousand catties of steel for you in one day. Twelve fire eyes can refine it at the same time. It can produce ten thousand catties of steel in one day and three million catties of steel in one year.  The premise is that you can guarantee the sourceContinuously provide ore.  "

    "Will it delay the cultivation of monks of your sect?"

    "Controlling fire and making steel is cultivation. The more you practice, the faster your cultivation will improve."

    Zhao Ran praised: "The cultivation method of your sect, like Wudang Great Sage Nanyan Palace, is the Taoist method that is most in line with the times!"

    After finishing the praise, Zhao Ran asked again: "Occupying twelve fire eyes may delay the refining of special effect steel. Are there any other fire eyes?"

    Of course there are other fire eyes in Taixuan Pavilion, but they are closed because they are not needed.

    Zhao Ran suggested that three new fire eyes should be specially opened and three new pill furnaces should be set up. Each pill furnace could hold ten times more capacity than the other pill furnaces, so that one furnace could produce a hundred kilograms of steel and increase the efficiency of steelmaking.  Efficiency, saving manpower in steelmaking.  Three blast furnaces are refining at the same time, and ten thousand catties can be obtained in one day.

    The main dispute with Yang Cunxin was over the mine in Qibao Mountain. Taixuan Guan was reluctant to let outsiders enter the mine.  Zhao Ran could understand this, and the only way he could offer was to give away a large amount of profits.

    Zhao Ran promised that as long as Taixuan Guan handed over the management of the Qibaoshan Mine to Jimingguan, Jimingguan would fund the establishment of the Qibaoshan Mining Bureau to recruit one hundred miners, with a salary of two taels of silver per person per month.  The excavated iron ore is sent directly to Taixuan Hall without any charge from Taixuan Hall.

    The ordinary steel plates refined by Taixuan Hall were fully purchased by Jimingguan at the price of one tael of silver and thirty kilograms.

    Yang Cun thought carefully and was immediately moved.  Just for refining ordinary steel plates, as long as Taixuan Hall refines three million kilograms per year, it can earn one hundred thousand taels of silver. The trivial work of mining is no longer necessary, and it can also improve cultivation. In this way  Why not do a good thing?

    She immediately asked Zhao Ran and Rong Niang to wait while she discussed with several elders of Taixuan Pavilion, and then asked Master Fei Fu Yang to explain Zhao Ran's conditions.

    Yang Zhenren quickly agreed and replied: "Zhao Zhiran will soon be a member of our Gezaoshan lineage. This is another matter of sending money to Taixuan Pavilion. There is nothing wrong with it."

    Therefore, Yang Cunxin signed an agreement on behalf of Taixuan Pavilion and Jiming Temple on behalf of Zhao Zhiran. When the agreement was signed, Zhao Ran waved his hand boldly: "From today on, Daming's steel output will reach tens of millions."  The era of kilogram measurement!¡±
