Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore
Chapter 187 The Art of Refining
Xu Yaoniang couldn't help but sigh. She was similar in age to Mrs. Qiao, so naturally she could better understand Mrs. Qiao's sadness and helplessness of worrying about her children all her life.
"I just hope Mr. Rui won't let Mr. Rui waste his hard work."
Old Mrs. Qiao worked so hard for Mr. Rui's future. Qiao Rui was not his biological son. How could she be able to do this to such an extent, why not make people sigh with emotion!
"She just puts all her hopes on others, but she doesn't understand the fickleness of the world and the fickleness of people's hearts. If she doesn't find a way out for herself, she will put her life in the hands of others, and she will live or die." Qiao Wei's tone was a little cold.
Although Qiao Wei believes that it is not inevitable to use blood ties to bind family ties, the emotional connection between parents and their children in the process of raising their children is what truly makes each other become unbreakable relatives.
This is why Qiao Wei originally suggested that Mrs. Qiao choose an infant child among the candidates sent by the Qiao family to adopt her. Only children raised by their own hands will be filial and considerate from the bottom of their hearts.
Sun Quan also knew that no matter how unreasonable and forceful Mrs. Wu was, Sun Quan would always be soft-hearted even if he was angry again. He endured the discomfort in his heart and wanted to arrange a safe old age for Mrs. Wu.
Xu Yaoniang naturally understood why Qiao Wei was angry, but as an elderly mother, Xu Yaoniang was obviously more sympathetic to Mrs. Qiao.
Qiao Wei turned back and glanced at Xu Yaoniang, "Speaking of which, my mother is not as blessed as you, Yaoniang. Alu already has a wife and a lot of property. He has always been filial. Yaoniang, everything goes well for you. .”
Compared with Qiao Rui, who has high ambitions but low abilities, Xu Yaoniang's adopted son Xu Lu can be regarded as a son of the family. He was raised from an infant. He is diligent and has some brains. He is also very dedicated in managing the rough affairs of Ju Xu Pavilion. Now he has a bit of face in front of the Sun family's servants.
After coming to Wuxian County, he spent his savings and bought two houses. He asked Qiao Wei for help and wanted to wait two years to bring Xu Yaoniang into the new house to retire.
Qiao Wei naturally wouldn't respond.
Xu Yaoniang felt quite comforted when she thought of her adopted son, "Xijun is also kind and gentle, and he is willing to tell him what to do. I am considered to be blessed by Xijun."
"It's his own diligence. If he's a idiot like Qiao Rui, he can't even do a rough job. Why should he be appreciated or not appreciated?"
Qiao Wei was talking about Qiao Rui's fault, which was the conflict between the masters. Xu Yaoniang couldn't interrupt, so she had to keep her mouth shut.
Xiaoye didn't have such scruples, "Then Mr. Xi will let Mr. Rui go to Yuedan for evaluation?"
Seeing Xiaoye being so rude, Xu Yaoniang glared at her secretly and warned her not to discuss private matters about her master's family.
Xiaoye had already asked the question before she saw Xu Yaoniang's eyes and realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth.
Qiao Wei didn't mind, "He doesn't dare to go!"
A straw bag with an empty belly, that is, he could put on some airs in front of Mrs. Qiao. After leaving the Qiao family, he had to reveal his secrets at a glance in front of a real great talent in the world.
At the end of the twelfth lunar month, Sun Quan also sealed the seal and took Qiao Wei to Jintai to watch the excitement.
Sun Quan changed into casual clothes and led Qiao Wei to the market, enjoying this rare time in his busy schedule.
After autumn, rebellions broke out frequently in Shanyue. Sun Quan dispatched Huang Gai and others as county magistrates of the southern counties to send troops to suppress and deter the rebellion. However, the people of Shanyue fought bravely and made good use of the mountain terrain. They were hidden in the mountains and forests. They could attack and defend. They were difficult to find and therefore difficult to exterminate.
Huang Gai, Han Dang and others could only guard and repel the Yuezong commanders from the mountains, barely protecting the people in the county from intrusion.
Sun Quan was often worried about this. It is so easy to celebrate the New Year, and all official matters have been closed. The tight strings after the year can finally be relaxed.
On the first day of the first lunar month, people still need to worship heaven and ancestors, and send officials to Xudu to meet with them. It is another busy and tiring day.
Qiao Wei may not have gone out for a long time. Even Mr. Mo was a little surprised when he saw her. He couldn't help joking, "She only showed up at the end of the year. Madam, you are a busy noble. I don't know if I haven't done anything for a long time. This I’m afraid my craftsmanship is getting rusty.”
Qiao Wei took a newly modified sleeve arrow from Youye's hand, "If you are busy with things, I'm afraid I can't compare to the third young master. I asked you to help me modify this sleeve arrow. You still don't have time, so I have to I have been thinking about it for a month and changed this one. See for yourself whether it is better than what you said last time?"
Young Master Mo took the sleeve arrow in his hand and looked at it carefully, "Madam's craftsmanship and ingenuity are naturally unique."
At this time, he saw Sun Quan walking in from the outside, and he quickly bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty is here to visit, but I am sorry to welcome you from afar. I hope you will forgive me."
Sun Quan raised his hand to help Young Master Mo up, "Thank you for your hard work, Sir. The affairs of the Sijin Factory are many and important. I should thank you. I am just traveling with my wife in casual clothes. It is just for leisure and relaxation, and it is not for official business." Come. Don’t be nervous, sir.”
Third Young Master Mo nodded in agreement. Qiao Wei saw that Third Young Master Mo was uncomfortable, so after discussing with him the plan to improve the sleeve arrows for a while, he stood up and left.
Before leaving, Third Young Master Mo took out a mechanical drawing and gave it to Qiao Wei, "This is the drawing and instructions sent by one of my colleagues from Wancheng. It is said to be used to improve steelmaking." .”
Baishang Steel is currently the hardest forging material that can be forged in the Sijin Factory. However, the steelmaking and forging processes are very complicated and it is difficult to be widely used in all weapon castings. So far, the so-called Hundred Refining Techniques can only reach the maximum of eighty refinings, which is already the ultimate, and the number is very rare. Now it is only enough to equip a small number of senior generals.
Even Sun Quan couldn't own a sword that could be made from steel. This year, Sijin Factory only produced an eighty-refined hundred-refined spear and a sword, which were given to Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu respectively.
Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu were stationed in Runan and Wancheng respectively, facing the attacks and harassment of Cao Jun. These rewards were also to reward their hard work.
"You've seen it, is there anything feasible?"
Young Master Mo nodded first, then shook his head, "If we look at this technique alone, it may be feasible, but... with Si Jinchang's current strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to support it."
Sun Quan suddenly became interested and put down the tea bowl in his hand, "You might as well tell me in detail."
Mr. Mo thought for a moment, "I'm not very good at the art of steelmaking, so I went to consult a few experienced craftsmen and did experiments. It was indeed possible to increase the weight of the steel, but so The manpower required is several times higher than that of the Eighty Refiners.
And it requires the right weather and the right concrete to be mixed into it before it can be cast. It can be said that it is something that can only be met but not sought. "
Ordinary hundred-refined steel is actually sixty-refined, because it cannot withstand the forging of eighty-refined steel. However, the number of hundred-refined steel that can withstand eighty-refined steel is already very small. If you need to invest several times more manpower, you can get the real steel. The hundreds of steelmaking projects are indeed not cost-effective in terms of input-output ratio, not to mention the success rate is not high enough.
This means that all the manpower and material resources invested are likely to be wasted.
But Young Master Mo still left this technical description behind.
"It seems it's not that the skill is rare, but that this person is rare, right?"
