Chapter 23: 1 cut for production

　　 Chen Wenlong and all the artisans all looked at Xiao Ming at this time.
　　 After the briquettes and lathes, Xiao Ming once again presented a shocking technique.
　　Especially the craftsmen, they have been good at this all their lives, the skills passed down from their ancestors have never changed, and now Xiao Ming has completely subverted their cognition.
"Yes, the steel made by the steel filling method is very mature in technology, but such steel needs to be forged repeatedly to increase the strength of the steel. This is too wasteful of time." Xiao Ming said: "I am teaching you now. Two blast furnaces will be built for ironmaking, and the two will be connected. One of them will produce pig iron, and the pig iron will be purified into wrought iron when entering the other blast furnace. In this way, ironmaking will take shape."
　　 Chen Wenlong asked the craftsmen to stop their work, sit on the ground, and listen to Xiao Ming again. Now this kind of knowledge transfer is commonplace in the Department of Equipment, and Chen Wenlong and the craftsmen are also familiar.
　　 Xiao Ming took the stone pen prepared by Chen Wenlong. This is a kind of stone that can draw white handwriting similar to chalk. In front of him is a black slab. He usually talks while drawing the structure of the blast furnace.
　　 The craftsmen have a serious attitude. Every time Xiao Ming teaches skills, they have a sense of epiphany. They can quickly master these unfamiliar skills.
　　 The boring machines, drilling machines, milling machines, and grinders manufactured by the Machinery Division are all made according to the drawings drawn by Xiao Ming and the images in their memory. After the initial trial, these lathes have basically succeeded.
　　 For example, the drilling machine, which is a lathe for drilling parts, successfully punched holes in the iron sheet of the gas stove.
　　 Another example is a boring machine. This type of lathe can boring holes drilled by a drilling machine. In Xiao Ming's words, these two types of lathes can process a solid steel into a steel pipe.
　　Because the drilling machine can drill the solid steel, and the boring machine can boring the hole into a tube.
　　 Although they don't understand what Xiao Ming's steel pipe is, they always think it is a very powerful thing.
　　 Suddenly an hour passed, Xiao Ming was a little dry, and he finished the art of blast furnace ironmaking.
　　 "His Royal Highness, how do we control the heat of coke refining?" A craftsman suddenly asked.
　　 This is a very young craftsman. Every time Xiao Ming teaches, this young craftsman is always the most serious, and seems to be very enthusiastic about the skills Xiao Ming teaches.
　　 But maybe because he was afraid of Xiao Ming, this craftsman had never asked a question on his own initiative. This time Xiao Ming had brought it to the coke, and he couldn't help asking.
　　 "What is your name?" Xiao Ming is very interested in this young craftsman who is similar to his own age. In his opinion, only with a heart for knowledge can a person be passionate about his career.
　　 And this young craftsman is obviously full of enthusiasm for the equipment division.
　　 Chen Wenlong looked embarrassed at this time, and said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, he is Chen Qi, the subordinate's dog. He doesn't understand etiquette. I hope that your Highness will not blame it."
　　 After speaking, he shouted at the young craftsman: "Get out, when is it your turn to speak here?"
　　 Chen Qi frowned, and said with dissatisfaction: "Father, I just asked about the fire temperature of the coke. If it is confused, if the coke is burnt, it will cause much loss to the equipment department."
Chen Wenlong wanted to scold him. Xiao Ming suddenly stopped him. He looked at Chen Qi with satisfaction and said, "Chen Qi is right. This skill must be true. It is said that this lathe was made by Chen Qi and other craftsmen? "
　　 "His Royal Highness, this is true." Chen Longwen shook his head. Chen Qi has never liked reading, only interested in these weird things.
　　 Xiao Ming beckoned to Chen Qi, "Yes, my head is very flexible, would you like to be the chief craftsman of the equipment department?"
　　 Chen Qi was overjoyed when he heard the words, but looked at Chen Wenlong worriedly.
　　 Without waiting for Chen Wenlong to talk nonsense about Chen Qi’s young age, Xiao Ming said directly:
Then it’s decided. You will get one or two silver tattoos every month. You will be responsible for the things I will explain in the future.

　　 "Yes, Your Highness." Chen Qi said excitedly. This craftsman's head can become a soldier by one step.
　　 In the past, his father Chen Wenlong didn't like him to study this way. Now that he is so appreciated by the king of Qi, he immediately becomes confident.
　　 But the question that should be asked has not yet been asked, he said: "Your Highness, you haven't said what kind of heat is needed for smoldering coke."
　　 "It's only 30% lower than it was during iron making." Xiao Ming said, iron making requires about 1,400 degrees, and coke is about 1,000 degrees. "Boldly try, it's okay if you burn it."
　　 Chen Qi said loudly: "Yes, Your Highness."
　　 The matter of blast furnace ironmaking goes on to explain, this blast furnace still needs time to build, he hopes that at that time Qian Dafu can bring back the good news of graphite.
　　 In this way, he can combine blast furnace ironmaking and crucible steelmaking into a production line.
　　 Next, Xiao Ming went to check the lathe, UU read www.uukanshu. These lathes of com are all antique lathes of the seventeenth century in the world, hand-powered.
　　Moreover, the drill bits of the lathe are all steel knives that craftsmen usually forge. These knives are enough to process some rough parts.
　　 Looking at the variety of lathes in front of him, Xiao Ming felt a little more comfortable. With these lathes, he can produce some small parts, and these small parts can be assembled into one of the oldest simple machines—clocks.
　　In his opinion, the foundation of industry in his time began with watchmakers, because from this time, various precision accessories entered the stage of history.
　　 As for guns, Xiao Ming thought about it, but he understood that it would be impractical within a few years.
As the saying goes, once a cannon is fired, gold is tens of thousands. Not to mention that the current fiefdom is poor and white. It is only technically that the long cycle of making a gun on a manual lathe can not be afforded by Xiao Ming. Basically, it is almost equivalent to doing this before the steam engine appeared. Yu jokes.
　　 So now the plan that Xiao Ming has laid down, everything is for production, wait until his fief is rich, with a preliminary large-scale factory and industrial system, these things can be built with a commensurate economic volume.
　　 Because in Xiao Ming's view, war is fought with money and resources. Otherwise, once the ammunition is exhausted, everything will be nonsense. It is too unrealistic to abandon production and exhaust material resources to do this.
　　 So the plan for the present is to build a fief. Of course, the army must be strengthened. One is to defend against the prairie barbarians, and the other is for banditry in winter.
　　According to past experience, every winter, when food is hard to find, it is the time when thieves are crowded.
