I was watching short videos and was seen by ancient people

Chapter 140 Essential Skills for Time Travel—Old Method Blast Furnace Ironmaking ([-])
Especially in the past few years, the Dangxiang clan broke away from the Song Dynasty and established Xixia by themselves, which made the Song Dynasty even worse.

It was also from that time that in order to eliminate Xixia, wars continued on the borders of the Song Dynasty.

Although Zhao Zhen knew from the sky that Xixia was rich in resources and even had huge salt mines.

However, the national power of the Song Dynasty prevented them from stretching their arms and legs that far.

Moreover, the steel of the Song Dynasty could not support war after war.

It was not until the last time we saw coal coking that steel production increased.

Now seeing the blast furnace making iron, Zhao Zhen hopes that this can increase steel production.

tomorrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang read the video title on the marquee, and he was full of desire for this kind of thing.

Ever since he began to strive for world hegemony, he has been living a hard life.

Even because of this, he had to follow Liu Bowen's advice, accumulate grain widely, and slowly become king.

Although he is now the emperor, he also understands the difficulty of refining steel and the scarcity of the country's steel production.

In terms of total output, the output of the entire Ming Dynasty is not low, but there are too many uses for steel.

It is not only needed for making weapons, but also for farm tools and daily necessities used by ordinary people at home.

Faced with the huge population of the Ming Dynasty, the output was really lacking.

If the blast furnace ironmaking mentioned on the sky screen can really greatly alleviate the demand for steel, he believes that Ming Dynasty's national power will be greatly increased.

So Zhu Yuanzhang called Prince Zhu Biao, and he asked Prince Zhu Biao to take charge of the blast furnace ironmaking.

Zhu Yuanzhang's goal was to allow the people of the world to own iron tools when reclaiming land. He believed that by then, the entire Ming Dynasty would be indestructible, and the rule of his Zhu family would also be unshakable.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has more steel, so if a new continent is found, it will be easier for the people to reclaim wasteland.

……

Zhu Di was extremely excited when he saw the blast furnace ironmaking mentioned on the sky screen.

As an emperor who has been on the verge of conquering the frontier, he is very eager to possess weapons.

However, there is really not enough steel in this world, which prevents him from displaying his strength during the northern expedition to Mobei.

Now that it is possible to change this situation, he must have people study it carefully.

At the same time, he called his prince Zhu Gaochi and asked him to take charge of this matter.

After all, this was related to the Northern Expedition, and he was really worried about leaving this matter to others.

Zhu Gaochi was a little embarrassed when he heard the order given by Zhu Di.

The steel in the world cannot increase suddenly by a large amount. It is more of a steady flow, increasing a little every year.

However, now that his father saw the so-called blast furnace coking on the sky screen, he asked him to take charge of this matter, which was really embarrassing for him.

You must know that he is Zhu Di's logistics for the northern expedition to Mobei, and now that she has been entrusted with the task of blast furnace ironmaking, he really has no free time to manage it.

Zhu Gaochi could only find someone to complete it, to see what the advantages of this blast furnace ironmaking were, and it turned out to be a necessary skill for future generations to travel through time.

If the iron-making in the blast furnace is really what the Celestial Eye says, and there is such a time traveler in the Ming Dynasty, what will happen even if he is actually granted a title?
……

Zhu Houzhao watched the video on the sky screen, and he was also extremely interested.

After all, he is a general who conquered Japan. If there is no steel, how can he practice weapons?

If there is no weapon, how can he attack the Japanese slaves?

So he ordered the eunuch around him to record the contents on the canopy.

At this moment, an urgent report of 800 miles was suddenly handed into his hands.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the 800-mile emergency report in his hand. He quickly opened it and read it, and found that it was from Wang Yangming.It records that Wang Yangming had wiped out the Jiannu and settled a large number of Ming Dynasty people into living in Liaodong.

Zhu Houzhao believed that with the fire kang and the briquette stove mentioned on the sky screen, the people of Ming Dynasty could survive in the cold Liaodong.

After a few decades, Liaodong will be the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, Zhu Houzhao issued a decree to let Wang Mingyang return to Beijing. He wanted to discuss the next plan with Wang Yangming.

After Wang Mingyang sent Zhu Houzhao an 800-mile express, he has been inspecting Liaodong.

He also did not expect that the attack on Liaodong would go so smoothly, and that he would wipe out Jiannu in a very short period of time.

Moreover, compared with the past, every time when troops were sent to fight, the soldiers did not dare to charge forward. This time to attack Jiannu, the soldiers fought very bravely.

He carefully asked the soldiers to find out, and the reason turned out to be Zhu Houzhao's will.

Those who live in Liaodong will be rewarded with 30 acres of Susukada, and those who have made contributions to Liaodong will be rewarded with 50 acres of Susukada.

After hearing the news, all the soldiers fought bravely, hoping that they could get the 50 acres of land.

There are even more soldiers living in Liaodong with their families.

They feel that although the weather in Liaodong is a bit cold, it is even quite cold in some places.

But if they have their own fields, they will have a better life in the future.

And now, with the methods of making fire pits and briquettes appearing on the sky, they are looking forward to their future life.

They believe that by planting some crops on those lands in the coming year, they are afraid that their descendants will no longer have to worry about food and drink every day like them.

……

Zhu Youjian looked at the video on the sky screen, anxiously waiting for the video information.

Since he ascended the throne, the Ming Dynasty has suffered from internal and external troubles.

It wasn't until Yuan Chonghuan proposed the five-year Pingliao Plan that he had the confidence to face various natural disasters in the country.

However, the implementation of the five-year plan was not smooth. After all, the war was fought with money and resources.

At that time, the court lacked these things.

Later, with the appearance of the sky and letting him know that there is a high-yield crop such as sweet potatoes, he got a chance to breathe.

Now with the harvest of sweet potatoes, rebellions have appeared in various parts of the country due to natural disasters, and some of them have been eliminated.

It also gave him energy to provide supplies for Yuan Chonghuan.

The later appearance of fire kangs and briquettes solved the problem of warmth for soldiers far away in Liaodong.

The recent emergence of coal coking has solved the problem of lack of ironware in the Ming Dynasty.

Now that the sky is talking about blast furnace ironmaking, he hopes to solve the problem of Ming Dynasty's lack of weapons.

If these problems are solved, Zhu Youjian believes that he will no longer be the hanged man under the coal mountain.

He believed that he could hold the turbulent waves and restore stability to the stormy Ming Dynasty.

When the people of various dynasties saw the message on the sky screen, they didn't care too much.

Although iron is related to their lives, they have become accustomed to the high status of iron.

Even if their dynasty really had this blast furnace for iron making, they didn't believe that the price of iron could drop.

After all, they had experienced too many disappointments and had no hope for the court.

They just hope that they can live healthily and safely, and that their children and grandchildren can also live healthily and safely.
