Chapter 642 Forging Steel and Forging Swords (Third Change, Please Subscribe)

Father Hu was undoubtedly very happy to get Luo Cheng's promise.

But after that, it was time to get down to business. Luo Cheng looked at Father Hu seriously, and said loudly: "This method of steelmaking should have been spread everywhere, but it is obviously not the time now, so we should experiment."

"Hu Qing recruited a group of craftsmen for me to build a workshop outside Beiping City, and see if the blast furnace is effective for steelmaking before doing anything in the future." Luo Cheng said indifferently.

From a certain point of view, Hu's father is almost equivalent to Beiping's housekeeper, and many of Luo Cheng's physical objects are entrusted to him.Moreover, the experience of the past few years has also made Father Hu very proficient in handling things.

Therefore, Luo Cheng already had the idea of ​​how to arrange Hu's father. At that time, he could set up an industrial and commercial bureau, which would be directly managed by Luo Yi, and would have the authority to supervise all merchants and guide business.

Hu's father started his business as a businessman, and he knows all about it. Luo Cheng believes that he can do a good job in this matter.But this is something later, now Luo Cheng is still arranging tasks for Father Hu.

Father Hu heard Luo Cheng's words and nodded slightly. Anyway, it was Luo Cheng's orders and he just obeyed obediently.Although the steelmaking industry in Beiping City is not well developed, it is not a problem to find a few craftsmen.

After Luo Cheng ordered, Hu's father hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, my lord. This subordinate will send people to make arrangements. It won't take long to finish this matter."

Now that Hu's father has completely devoted himself to Luo Cheng's command, it is not at all stagnant to call him the lord.Father Hu firmly believed that this was a wise choice, and he would not suffer from it.

After that, Luo Cheng reminded Hu's father: "In the future, Beiping will inevitably be expanded. Hu Qing should go back and make preparations. The cement thing was developed for this purpose."

Luo Cheng had already made the meaning very clear, and Hu's father suddenly realized.No wonder Luo Cheng has to work hard to develop cement. It turns out that there is a reason for this, which is really surprising.

From Luo Cheng's words, Father Hu can also comprehend some other things. Is it possible that the capital of the country will be set in Beiping?If this is the case, it will definitely affect many things. As Luo Cheng said, he has to go back and make preparations.

After comprehending Luo Cheng's deep meaning, Hu's father left.

Luo Cheng was not worried about Hu's father's ability to handle affairs. After all, over the years, he had proved that he was indeed a useful person.Although Luo Cheng has many talents under his command, Father Hu is the one who is proficient in business.

……

The matter entrusted to Father Hu was quickly completed.

Looking at the brand-new workshop, Luo Cheng nodded in satisfaction, it was not in vain that he trusted Father Hu so much.

In the workshop, it was a craftsman specially recruited by Father Hu, looking at Luo Cheng with some trepidation.After all, they are just ordinary people, but Luo Cheng is a world-famous big shot.

The level gap has existed since ancient times, and it is obviously more obvious in today's feudal era.Luo Cheng just stood there, and everyone was trembling with coldness, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Fortunately, Luo Cheng didn't mind, he had a friendly attitude, glanced at everyone, and asked: "You are all blacksmiths, you must know why I asked you to come here, right?"

Perhaps it was because Luo Cheng was not too strong, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and agreed with one voice, they were the steelmakers around Beiping City that Father Hu took pains to find.

Since this is the case, there is nothing to talk nonsense about. Luo Cheng said directly: "I recruited you here for the purpose of refining refined steel. You must have heard of it."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and one person said boldly: "Steelmaking consumes a lot of energy, but the output is not high. I don't know why your lord refines refined steel?"

Luo Cheng waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, I have my own method of making steel, you just need to follow my method and see the effect, if you do it well, I will naturally reward you .”

When facing ordinary people, Luo Cheng knew that it was useless to say anything else.It's better to be more direct and induce them with interests, but it will make them do their best.

With Luo Cheng's promise, all the craftsmen were obviously a little excited. They all knew that Luo Cheng's status was extraordinary, and such a nobleman said that he would be rewarded, which was naturally indispensable. They just had to try their best to do things well.

Luo Cheng took out the drawings that had been drawn long ago and asked the craftsmen to build the blast furnace according to them.They have never seen or heard of such a steelmaking method, but this is Luo Cheng's order, and they can only obey it.

After spending three days in this way, the blast furnace can be regarded as completed. Looking at the blast furnace that is not much different from what he remembered, Luo Cheng nodded in satisfaction.Things are ready, and the next step is the main show.

Because Luo Cheng is not proficient in the method of steelmaking, he doesn't know what effect it has.This can only be improved after the experiment and based on the experience of the craftsmen.

A few days later, the blast furnace finally produced the first batch of steel, which made the craftsmen a little excited.However, when Luo Cheng saw the finished product, he couldn't help frowning, which was very different from what he imagined.

From the perspective of future generations, the steel products produced are undoubtedly defective.That is to say, it is very different from Luo Cheng's expectations. If it goes on like this, it may not be able to achieve Luo Cheng's goal.

But in the eyes of the craftsmen, the situation was quite different. They couldn't help themselves when they saw the steel produced, which surprised Luo Cheng.Could it be that in their hearts, this steel is of high quality?
So Luo Cheng directly asked him, and only then did he learn about the situation. It turns out that the steel is not much different from the one produced today, but the output has increased a lot. This is undoubtedly good news.

Luo Cheng showed a thoughtful expression, but it was obviously impossible for him to be satisfied like this.Even if the quantity goes up, he still has to find a way to improve the quality, so that the goal can be considered accomplished.

Therefore, Luo Cheng directly called all the craftsmen together to ask about possible problems.He has the theoretical basis of later generations, but the craftsmen have accumulated experience, and the two complement each other to have an effect.

After summarizing all kinds of situations, and after several failures, Luo Cheng can be regarded as successfully raising the quality of the steel to a higher level.Perhaps this is not a shocking achievement, but it has greatly promoted the times.

Looking at the latest steel, Luo Cheng was quite satisfied, perhaps there was still some gap with the finished products of the advanced machinery of later generations.But this has exceeded the limit of this era.

After training the steel, Luo Cheng was so happy that he had someone forge two swords from it.Under the modern purification and strengthening technology, the cast long sword really cuts iron like mud.

These are two commemorative swords. Of course, Luo Cheng can't cover them with dust, so he directly raised the sword to find Jiang Song.Two people, one person and one handle, have many meanings and also represent their brotherhood.

　I owe one more.
