Following Zhao Ran's remarks, Junshan Technology's core public relations team moved back to Dajun Mountain from the Mochou Lake. Zhao Ran allocated five acres of land on the westernmost side of Junshan Lake and built a courtyard with carved beams and painted buildings as a Junshan Technology's key project research and development institute. The outside of this house is covered by dense maple trees. In autumn, it looks a red scene, which is really beautiful.
Zhao Ran came to Junshan Technology and saw the large steel mortar he wanted to make in a side courtyard. The mortar was one foot high and one foot three feet wide. The entire mortar was made of fine steel produced by the Etai Xuan Hall, with a few special talismans added to it. Wen fine steel. Eight sets of simple soil-fixing runes are engraved on the steel mortar to strengthen the structure.
There is nothing complicated about the steel mortar itself. It can only be regarded as the most basic magic weapon. Its only feature is that it is large and thick. It is very large and very thick. In order to refine this large steel mortar, Junshan Technology specially made a large alchemy furnace that is three feet high and three feet wide. With the help of the large alchemy furnace, eight Huangguan monks worked at the same time to refine it, which took a day to complete.
Accompanied by Guo Zhiwei and Long Qingwei, Zhao Ran carefully inspected the large steel mortar and tried its strength. He felt quite satisfied and passed the acceptance inspection. He told Guo Zhiwei and Long Qing: "The steel mortar is a small target for our trial production, but it is not our main purpose. Our main purpose is this big alchemy furnace. The completion of the big alchemy furnace marks that Junshan Technology has the capability to Integrated refining technology for large solid parts.¡±
Long Qing asked: "What kind of large solid object does the elder plan to refine?"
Zhao Ran said: "You have all seen French crossbow heavy artillery. The most powerful French crossbow heavy artillery has a range of one hundred and fifty feet. The reason for this is I think it is the elasticity of the string. This kind of form has been developed to At the top, it is difficult to make substantial progress, and the French crossbow heavy cannon has a complex structure and precise accessories, making maintenance and repair very difficult, so I want to refine a real cannon."
¡°As he spoke, Zhao Ran took a piece of white paper and drew a long round tube, supported by a base at the back, and drew a few balls next to it. After finishing the painting, he said: "The key technology of this gun lies in the barrel. The strength and tightness of the barrel are very high. I need you to use rune steel and refine it as a whole in one go. The bottom of the barrel is placed The fire talisman, the fire talisman is activated, blasting the cannonball out of the long tube. This is probably the situation. What I can give you is the idea, and the specific things need to be refined by you."
After accepting the task, Guo Zhiwei and Long Qingwei began to stare at the simple drawings that Zhao Ran had just drawn. Zhao Ran collected the big steel mortar in the Ziwu brocade bag and left. Before going out, I went to the yard next door to take a look. Zhuge Jiaguang and several monks from Junshan Technology were testing a variant of Zhuge's self-propelled plow.
The basic transmission device has not changed. The difference is that this Zhuge self-propelled plow has four very strong legs and carries a hardwood frame three feet long, three feet wide and two feet high on its back.
This is the Zhuge family¡¯s wooden ox and flowing horse. It is a good thing that can carry goods across mountains and rivers. A wooden ox and flowing horse can carry five hundred kilograms of goods. It can be supported by the spirit-gathering talisman for three full days.
Next to it, there is a larger wooden cow and horse. The original four legs have been replaced by four thick iron wheels, and an open hardwood frame that is one foot long, six feet wide and six feet high is added above. Because of the wheel support, this tall variant of the wooden cow and flow horse can carry up to 10,000 kilograms of cargo.
What Zhuge Jiaguang is doing now is to verify the durability of the two wooden cows and horses, mainly how long each component can be used when fully loaded.
Zhao Ran briefly chatted with Zhuge Jiaguang and asked him to continue the experiment without asking any more questions. Verifying the durability is the most time-consuming. Only after a wooden cow and flowing horse has been used continuously for three to five months can we see which structures and components need improvement.
When they arrived at the back mountain, they saw Yuan Lin and Shu Chi, two disciples of Luo Zhiqing, running out of the valley with their heads in their hands. Their buns were messy and they were very embarrassed. Yuan Lin still had several big bumps on his forehead, while Shu Chi had a bleeding nose and tears.
After asking about it, I found out that the two apprentices had not seen their teacher for a long time and went to pay respects to the teacher. As a result, they were taken by Luo Zhiqing to challenge Fairy Toad Palace. The two apprentices were really beaten badly today and could only openly disobey their teacher's orders and end up in ruins. escape.
Zhao Ran was really speechless. He thought to himself that Senior Brother Luo dared to take two Huangguan realm disciples to fight with Fairy Toad Palace. How arrogant! Fortunately, although the Fairy of Toad Palace has a shortcoming in IQ, she is kind-hearted in nature and has no cruel intentions. He also used the forbidden technique to tell her not to use magic to hurt people. Otherwise, the two little guys would have jumped off the cliff long ago. "?
He comforted them with good words and asked them to go back to recuperate, while he continued walking inside. When they entered the deepest part of the seventh level of the back mountain, they finally heard the sound of fighting. They hurried over to take a look, but it was Luo Zhiqing who was half-buried in the soil. The sword light with the size of the door above his head was blocked from left to right by the Fairy of Toad Palace with copper. The pestle was pounded into the ground bit by bit.
Zhao Ran smiled and shook his headShake your head, Senior Brother Luo, you too have today!
As soon as he appeared, Fairy Toad Palace cheered, and Luo Zhiqing ran over, throwing herself in front of Zhao Ran in the blink of an eye. Zhao Ran had also experienced being saved by her these days, staggering his right foot backward and lunging forward with his left foot. , after lowering his center of gravity, his arms caught the Toad Palace Fairy who was rushing towards her in the air, so that she was not thrown to the ground. But the whole person was thrown backwards by three feet, leaving two foot marks half a foot deep on the ground.
Fairy Toad Palace couldn't speak yet, and she was making gestures. Zhao Ran said: "Don't worry, I brought it for you." After saying that, he took out three large radish boxes from his thumb. Fairy Toad Palace immediately sat down and held one in both hands. He put the big radish into his mouth and gnawed it happily.
Zhao Ran walked to Luo Zhiqing, looked at his condition, and saw that although he was in a mess, nothing serious happened, so he pulled him out. Luo Zhiqing stared at the sky blankly, and after a moment he sighed: "Awesome!"
Zhao Ran comforted him: "Senior Brother Luo, you will be fine after you join the Great Refiner. Don't be depressed."
Luo Zhiqing shook his head: "No way."
Zhao Ran asked: "Senior brother, are you still fighting? If not, I will let the fairy do the work."
Luo Zhiqing turned around and walked away: "We'll fight again in half a month!"
Zhao Ran took out the large steel mortar, poured the spiritual sulfur prepared in the Ziwu brocade bag into the mortar, filled it with one third, and piled the rest next to the steel mortar, and continued to pour out malachite, fierce iron and other materials. Dozens of piles were piled according to weight, and dozens of large sacks were taken out and placed next to them. These are materials needed by Junshan Technology and Junshan Workshop, but the two organizations are currently very busy, and grinding them is very labor-intensive and time-consuming, so Zhao Ran took them all.
After Fairy Toad Palace finished eating the three large radish boxes, Zhao Ran started to play a game of pounding medicine with her. After pounding a few pestles, Fairy Toad Palace's eyes lit up. She went up to the mortar and grabbed the copper pestle in her hand. , and began to "make medicine".
Zhao Ran was patiently guiding her. After she finished pounding the first mortar, he taught her to pour the powdered spiritual sulfur into a sack and set it aside, and then continued to pour the second pile of ore. Fairy Toad Palace has always maintained a strong interest and kept tinkering with it, seemingly never getting tired of it. When Zhao Ran saw this, he quietly left her side.
It is now the end of May, and he has to rush to Wuchang to attend the unveiling ceremony of the Wuchang Yangtze River Bridge.
