Datang first village

Hearing that the medical officer went to treat his son, the slave kowtowed vigorously.

But Li Yuanxing said: "Such a small piece, it will cost more than a hundred guan to refine it!"

"Luo, Roman fighting, fighting beast..." The slave was extremely nervous and stammered.

At this time, Wu Zhao, who had been quietly listening to the previous conversation, rushed out: "The things extracted from the building materials of the Colosseum are someone who wants to solve the mystery of the huge architecture of the Colosseum. The Colosseum uses It's limestone, sandstone, volcanic ash, you know that process?"

The origin of Wu Zhao's tone.

The black slave was so frightened that he trembled all over and was speechless.

Li Yuanxing didn't ask any more questions, and was going to wait for the black slave to calm down before asking, then turned to the strong man, "Tell me!"

"Crossbow! Eight consecutive crossbows!" Simple and direct statement, but full of confidence.

"What do you need? I want to watch you make it!" Li Yuanxing had heard of Liannu, but the ancient Liannu restored by later generations could not show enough lethality. Li Yuanxing regretted that even the cabinet master could not explain it.

"Ten catties of pig iron can be made in ten days!"

"Can thousands of refined steel be used, and can it be made faster?" Li Yuanxing asked again.

The slave bowed his head in thought for a moment, and said something that made Li Yuanxing dumbfounded: "It depends on whether the steel is good or not!"

"Come here, prepare special, first-class, second-class, and third-class fine steel, plus ten catties of pig iron, a separate blacksmith workshop, and two sixth-class blacksmiths and craftsmen. Please second-class craftsman, Lao Ma, to the scene, go quickly Prepare!"

Li Yuanxing finished his orders and looked at the slave.

The slave was not stupid, knowing that it was time for him to make a request, he said loudly: "The little one just wants to be full!"

"Come here, go kill a pig. Prepare something rich for them, go to the workshop!"

On the way to the workshop, Li Yuanxing carried Wu Zhao on his shoulders, and asked Wu Zhao in a low voice: "You said that ancient Roman cement is better than modern technology?"

"How about comparing yourself? Modern large-scale industrialized cement is definitely better. But the small factory cement in the 80s is hard to say. And the firing temperature required is lower. The only difference is the formula. To put it bluntly, it is a substitute for volcanic ash. , Some studies say it is bauxite powder, and some say other things.”

"Worth it?" Li Yuanxing asked with a smile!

"If you pick up the value of ten thousand taels of gold, do you think it's worth it? And you can take this craft back home, even if it is placed in modern times, it is superior to modern cement in terms of environmental protection. Ordinary garden buildings are very practical, and high-rise buildings It's free!" Li Yuanxing was very tempted by Wu Zhao's explanation.

He secretly instructed that the black slave should take good care of him, raise him well, and even give him enough benefits.

Once the trial production of the ancient Roman cement is successful, it will be no problem to give him a title.

In the blacksmith workshop area, Lao Ma, the second-class craftsman, is already waiting here. There are four blacksmiths in the workshop who are all apprentices of Lao Ma.

The fine steel requested by Li Yuanxing has been prepared and placed on the ground.

In the entire Yaozhou, the stock of special-grade fine steel is only one thousand catties, which is used to make armor or weapons for the general.

"Good steel!" Just touching it with his hand, the blacksmith shouted good steel.Li Yuanxing smiled and said nothing, but Lao Ma looked disdainful. You must know that this is the fine steel produced in Yaozhou, which can be said to be the best steel in Datang.

Burning, breaking, cutting, after a few actions, the old horse's expression changed: "Who is your master?"

But the blacksmith didn't answer, eighteen hammers used a small piece of second-grade fine steel to punch out a machine buckle, and then eighteen hammers, another machine buckle, exactly the same machine buckle.Li Yuanxing didn't have a measuring tool in his hand, but the visual inspection should have reached a replaceable accuracy, and there were only eighteen hammers.

No matter how simple the machine buckle is, the eighteen hammers are not something ordinary people can do.

"Lao Ma, I've entrusted this person to you. Treat him as a second-class manager. The king specially allows a catty of meat a day, and he can eat enough to eat. Tell him not to worry, the king wants to see the high-quality goods."

"Yes!" The second-class craftsman Lao Ma is an expert, and he knows that this strong man's craftsmanship is better than when he was young.

And he is in his prime, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

The simplest meal is womb cabbage cooked with ten catties of meat, which is now Chinese cabbage, and then white radish. Two chefs carry the big wooden tray and put the meal in the workshop here, and then there is a big bucket of white rice.

Li Yuanxing handed the black slave a pair of chopsticks with his own hands: "Bauxite, the material used in the Colosseum in ancient Rome. It's not worse than my king's cement, is it?"

The black slave immediately knelt down, this action represented acquiescence.

"Very good, it's made. If the effect is good enough and it saves materials, I will grant you a county baron." After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he turned and walked outside the workshop. When he reached the door, he said softly: "Go tell him , What is the county baronship of Datang!" Li Yuanxing smiled and strode away.

The next day, Li Yuanxing, who was in a gentle dream, was shaken awake.

Seeing Wang Yuyan's excited face, Li Yuanxing put the watch under the pillow, 04:30 in the morning!

my god!

Li Yuanxing fell back to sleep again, but Wang Yuyan refused: "Erlang, isn't today a big day for the rumored steel giant to start? Isn't Erlang going to the bank of the Jing River?"

"Monster! What's the use of a stone crusher!" Li Yuanxing fell asleep and continued to sleep.

Wang Yuyan was in a hurry, and threw herself on Li Yuanxing's body and scratched all over Li Yuanxing's body!

woman!Li Yuanxing let out a long sigh and had no choice but to sit up.The two maids next to Wang Yuyan who had already prepared their clothes immediately came over to help Li Yuanxing get dressed.

Li Yuanxing sighed in his heart, a few days ago Wang Yuyan didn't dare to speak loudly when he saw him, but now he dared to ride on him and scratch his itch, so he was not afraid of himself so soon.Is this the difference before and after consummation?

Or, I was too gentle, so that they didn't feel the slightest fear in their hearts.

Isn't it just a stone crusher!

Li Yuanxing really didn't care, but Wu Zhao was completely different from Li Yuanxing. She was already ready to go.Li Yuanxing was in a daze, and walked out the door with three steps, and almost asked someone to help him.

After going out the door, an object that Bai Erwa was holding made Li Yuanxing sober in an instant.

Liannu!

Bai Erwa approached Li Yuanxing: "His Royal Highness, it was built overnight. Someone tried it, and the old Mingguang armor can be shot through at [-] steps. Our new armor can kill people within [-] steps." Bai Erwa picked the key points quickly and directly Explain, seventy steps!This range is far enough, and it is continuous shooting.

Li Yuanxing looked at that strong slave!

Although the slave worked hard all night, he didn't look tired, but excited.He was in front of him when he tried the crossbow, because the steel was good, and the crossbow was stronger than the one he had made before.

As an excellent craftsman, such a masterpiece is worthy of his excitement.

"Very well, let's go ahead. Give him a home, and he can take a concubine first. But the rules of the Qin Palace must be told to him, and everything will be discussed when the king comes back at night!" Li Yuanxing ordered, and left without looking back.

This is the difference of status, Li Yuanxing has no need, nor is it possible to hold a slave's hand to get excited.

Being able to personally promise a reward is already a great value.

After Li Yuanxing left, a steward of the Qin Palace came to the slave: "Let's talk about your concubine first, you can choose it yourself. But if the other party agrees, the Qin Palace never forces people to do things, even if they are slaves. His Highness said , Twisted melons are not sweet. I will explain the other rules to you in the afternoon when you wake up from sleep!"

"Thank you King Qin for your kindness!" The strong man grinned.

What is concubine?When he was not a slave before, he heard that the big family did it, but now he didn't expect to have one himself.

After leaving Yaozhou City, head towards the Jinghe River.Li Yuanxing looked at the crossbow over and over. All the parts were made of fine steel, and the part of the crossbow was the same, but there were many weird creases, presumably to increase the elasticity.

What is the cost?Li Yuanxing can't figure it out, but whether it can be improved or industrialized is a new question.

When Li Yuanxing arrived at the Jing River, it was already daylight, and the place was already crowded with people.On the high platform, the royal flag had already been erected, and it was obvious that Li Er, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, had already arrived.

The arrival of Li Er was indeed a surprise to Li Yuanxing.

Putting Wu Zhao and Wang Yuyan together, Li Yuanxing came in front of Tang Huang Li Er.

"Wu Lang came a bit late, but something has delayed it?" Li Er's eyes were fixed on the giant steel beast wrapped in burlap like a small mountain bag.

Ma Yuan chose a good position, but Li Yuanxing only drew a range.

The location he chose was under a rocky cliff. The trolley could directly pour the stones into the crusher, and then down, there was a relatively gentle straight road, which could be used for carts to pull away the gravel.

Moreover, it is very close to the river, and four huge water trucks are combined to ensure the power of the rock crusher.

After Li Yuanxing glanced at the arrangement, he shook his head lightly.He shook his head not dissatisfied, but looking forward to the appearance of the steam car, which is a symbol of primitive industrialization above water power.

"Brother Huang, if I say that the bed is warm and I don't want to get up, will you believe me?" Li Yuanxing smiled and gave Li Er a cigarette.Then help Li Er order.If the movements of the two were captured by a camera, it would be like the feeling of two gang bosses inspecting the site.

Li Er smoked a smoke ring and laughed: "Brother, I would rather believe that you don't care about the 10,000+ catties of iron at all!"

Li Yuanxing smiled and waved, and Bai Erwa quickly stepped forward, holding a tray in his hand, and knelt down on one knee to hold the tray high.This is the rule, you must never approach the Emperor Datang with a weapon, you can only borrow a tray to hold it.And that's it, even if Bai Erwa is Qin Wang's guard, there are two imperial guards following him.

"Second baby, tell me!"

"Holy Majesty, this is a fine steel continuous crossbow. It fires eight arrows instantly. The old-style armor can be penetrated in seventy steps, and it is easy to reload! Eight crossbows can be reloaded in three breaths. I haven't tested the others in time!" (To be continued in time) .)
