The Empress’s Gigolo

Chapter 271: 1.8 million catties

Views:

The policewoman didn't let Ren Baqian take it seriously, but seeing her, Ren Baqian remembered what happened to the Jin family.

After returning to the car, he called Chen Shi, he should know more about this situation.

After asking, I found out that after I fled abroad, the Jin family was also in chaos. The main leaders are all dead, and there are almost no immediate family members. The remaining people are fighting hard for property, especially the relatives of the Jin family.

At that time, some people had thought of avenging Jin Wen and others, but before they had this opportunity, the police took action to wipe out the remnants of the Jin family, and all the previous things were revealed.

After all, the Jin family itself was not clean, and this time the incident was so big that the old accounts from the past were immediately brought to light.

Of course, there are also some departments behind it.

After making the phone call, Ren Baqian was relieved and completely let go of the matter. The Jin family had fallen apart, and there was absolutely nothing to stir up trouble.

For the next period of time, Ren Baqian was completely fine, and occasionally went to the school that was under construction for a while. The three brick houses had basically been built. Sometimes Ren Baqian would think of something, so he let the person in charge Somebody add a little something somewhere.

For example, a swing.

For example, digging a ditch to bring in water from a small stream not far away.

For example, build a pavilion.

The rest of the time is spent practicing, or accepting Tonglan's "Why are flowers so red" one-on-one family education.

Every time he was lying on the ground after being educated by Tonglan, he always remembered that a man said: "I am invincible among my GMs."

However, Ren Baqian was exactly the opposite of him.

"I've never won in my GM!"

Ah, what a pain to comprehend!

Traveling back and forth between different worlds and the earth, the progress of cultivation is still slow, but recently his strength has risen to more than 450 jins, Ren Baqian can't see the surrounding scenery clearly at the bottom of the lake, but he guesses that the bottom of the lake should not be far away.

When he touches the bottom of the lake, he has completed the practice of water vision and reached the initial stage of the human wheel.

This is a qualitative change.

When reaching the elementary stage of the human wheel, his whole body will undergo some changes, indicating that he has taken an important step.

In Great Xia, only one out of a thousand warriors can reach the human chakra, and one of the peak human chakras in a hundred can reach the earth chakra.

From this ratio, some problems can be explained.

The human wheel is a crucial threshold.

Early this morning, Ren Baqian tidied himself up and shaved off the stubble, revealing his blue scalp.

The beard was also shaved.

He also took a cold shower, then picked up the roll hugging his thigh and threw it aside, colliding with Licking.

Licking and Rolling were sent to Pingle Garden recently, otherwise Ren Baqian would have missed the two little guys, so he simply greeted the Empress and asked them to send the two little guys in.

When I came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Empress was reading a thread-bound book.

"Your Majesty, will you go back with me? Experience our New Year's Eve and home-cooked meals." Ren Baqian stood beside her, pressing the weight of her upper body on the sideboard of the wooden couch, leaning over to see what the Empress was looking at thing.

"You want to go home?" the empress straightened up and asked, slapping the book on him casually.

"Yes." Ren Baqian nodded, it's time to go back, it's been so long. If the empress hadn't been around every time, he would have gone back a long time ago.

"I won't go." The empress directly refused.

Hearing what the empress said, Ren Baqian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, although the empress is good to herself, she is still very cold to others.

Coupled with her long-term control over life and death and the aura of a top expert, ordinary people may feel restless when they are with her.

You should know that when she releases a little breath, a vacuum zone will appear around her, and no one will appear by her side.

If he really brought the empress back, I'm afraid it will be a cold spot, a cold spot, and a cold spot.

So Ren Baqian also felt that now is not a good time.

Whether to go or not is still up to the empress to decide. It seems that the empress doesn't want to see other people now.

"Shouldn't the solar furnace be sent to Damo Mountain?" Ren Baqian made up his mind, and it has been half a month since they were sent away. Although they are all mirrors, you need to be careful in transportation, but it should arrive in half a month.

"According to the distance, we should have arrived yesterday." The empress said, she had received the news before.

If you use the bird to send the letter, you should be able to receive the letter today.

After all, not only Ren Baqian and the empress paid attention to this matter, but also many people in the court.

This is a major event that can affect the entire Dayao. People from the Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Households, and Ministry of War are also waiting for news.

On Damo Mountain, dozens of people are busy fixing a concave mirror on a huge shelf, and a group of people are watching the excitement in the distance.

"This thing can melt Damo Mountain?" Gu Qiong, the iron mine supervisor of Damo Mountain, led a lot of his men to watch them busy there, remembering what these people said when they came last night, it is still a little unbelievable.

"You'll know in a while." It was Tao Jiyuan, the ordnance department doctor who spoke, and he also followed this time.

Of course, he had heard about this solar furnace. Those who went to see it with their own eyes that day talked about it later, and he also heard about it from Fenghou.

It is said that the energy of the sun is used to melt steel.

But how exactly, he is not very clear.

As the craftsmen were busy there, the mirrors on the shelves were fixed one by one, just like a puzzle.

After a whole morning, the mirrors on the shelf were finally installed. Dozens of people took out other flat mirrors and began to adjust the angles.

Finally, all the mirrors reflect the sunlight to the solar furnace, and then reflect it to a place with a half-meter radius on the Damo Mountain.

Everyone looked there intently, wanting to see what would happen.

In just a minute or two, you can see that the mountain there starts to glow red, smoke, and then catch fire.

In three minutes, the molten iron began to melt and flow down the mountain wall.

"It's done!" The person who cheered was the leader of the artisans this time, named Peng Ze.

Then the other craftsmen also cheered.

After being busy for so long, there was no problem at all.

The others were stunned to see the molten iron flowing down from Mount Damo, and they actually did it.

The method of burning mountains before has already increased the output of iron ore several times, but with this thing, it is not just several times, but tens of times, or even hundreds of times.

Then those craftsmen began to prepare to install the second one, and this time they brought enough concave mirrors to make three such solar furnaces. At the same time, someone taught Gudome how to adjust the angle of the mirror and the angle of the shelf.

This was taught to them by Ren Baqian, after all, one point cannot be melted.

At the same time, there is also a metal box specially used to receive molten iron, as long as it is placed below.

The molten iron falling into it will heat the metal box, but it will not melt. After all, the molten iron has been cooling when it falls, and some people know that the cooling forms a wall hanging on the mountain wall.

And these newly formed wall hangings will shatter and fall down as long as they are smashed with a hammer.

An hour passed, and the molten iron that flowed down together with the pieces of iron that fell down and solidified on the mountain wall was a thousand catties.

A solar furnace can be used for about three hours a day. At other times, due to the angle of the sun, sunlight cannot be reflected to Damo Mountain through mirrors and solar furnaces.

But in these three hours alone, three thousand catties of iron can be produced.

Three solar furnaces are nine thousand catties of iron.

Excluding cloudy and rainy days in a year, there are at least 200 sunny days, that is...

Tao Jiyuan sat on the ground disregarding his image, his fingers were not enough, and he didn't count for a long time.

"1.8 million catties...!" Tao Jiyuan was trembling when he finally came up with this figure.

This number really frightened him, and when the others heard it, they also started to waver, and Gu Qiong's face turned red as if he had drunk too much.

One must know that before Dayao produced only over 10,000 catties of iron a year.

Now using this "solar furnace" can produce iron in one year, which is equivalent to the iron ore output of Damo Mountain plus Liucui Mountain in a hundred years.

The numbers are simply horrific.

And as long as there are enough people and enough solar roads, this number will increase.

According to a knife weighing 20 catties, nearly 100,000 knives can be made in a year.

After so many years, Dayao didn't have an army of 100,000. The main reason for this was weapons, and among the people, even a dagger could be regarded as a family heirloom.

When this news was sent back to the Ministry of Industry, Ministry of War, and Ministry of Household Affairs, these ministries were about to be detonated. The huge noise could even be heard in the streets outside, and the wild laughter of Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan was enough. It was enough time for a stick of incense to ring.

Even though they had seen Ren Baqian demonstrate the solar furnace before, they didn't expect the effect to be so great.

That night, Tong Zhenye from the Ministry of Industry and Qin Chuan from the Ministry of War both booked a banquet in Yunyanlou for their subordinates, and it turned out to be a decisive battle at the top of the brothel.

And Tong Zhenye had the last laugh again.

When the empress got the news, she was in a daze at first, and then she also beamed with joy. According to this speed, two years would be enough to make 200,000 weapons.

It doesn't even need that many, as long as there are 50,000, Dayao can have 50,000 more strong soldiers, of which 30,000 will be transferred to the Northern Protectorate, and the other 20,000 will be transferred to the Southeast and Northeast Protectorates.

At that time, even if Da Xia, Yun, and Chen Three Kingdoms attack together, she doesn't need to worry anymore.

The empress was so excited that she stood up and walked a few steps in the hall, but remembered that the person who could share this joy with her was not here at this time.

Ren Baqian didn't know this at the moment.

Even if you know, I'm afraid you won't be as happy as others.

The annual output is 1.8 million catties, which is only 1,800 tons after calculation, which is about the same as the annual steel output of the Tang Dynasty.

We must know that the annual steel production of Huaguo on Earth is 1.1 billion tons, and 1,800 tons is not even enough for the steel consumption of a small city.

But this is already a huge improvement for Dayao.

At least in terms of weapons, there can be sufficient stocks, and they will no longer be controlled by others.

Dayao has never lacked strong soldiers, what he lacks is only weapons.
