Chapter 123: Tin Iron

Chapter 120 Three: Iron Iron

Qin Yi was willing to listen, Zhang Jiu certainly would not stop talking, thought for a while and said, "I remember the book talks about quenching technology, steel pouring method, hundred steel making method, and polishing, welding and cutting, and then it should be water drainage. Blast, by the way, and blast furnace melting pan"

Even Qin Yi, an insider, couldn't understand all Zhang Jiu said, so he couldn't help asking Zhang Jiu for advice one by one, but Zhang Jiu only knew one thing and didn't know the other, and it was quite difficult to explain, even though he Racking his brains to say what he knew, Qin Yi still had a half-knowledge, not very clear.

Even so, Qin Yi still got a lot of useful things from it, and he wrote down those he didn't understand, and planned to hand it over to the blacksmith for study in the future.

He was dragged by Qin Yi halfway into the restaurant to talk about the matter, and he kept talking for a long time. Zhang Jiu felt exhausted physically and mentally, and his mouth was dry. After drinking some tea, he felt better, "Brother, that's all I know. , I didn’t pay attention to the others before, so I can’t help much.”

"It's already very remarkable for you to know these things. It will definitely help us a lot. Xiao Jiu, I thank you on behalf of the soldiers of Daqin," Qin Yi said very solemnly.

"Brother and I, why are you polite? Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. It is not just the responsibility of the soldiers to defend the country. Everyone in Daqin should have such a responsibility. It’s really nothing, my elder brother really makes me feel ashamed when I say that.”

"Xiao Jiu, you are too modest." Zhao Ye laughed. "As far as I know, almost half of the rations of the soldiers of Daqin are due to you. How can you make us feel ashamed by being so modest?"

"In my opinion, all of you should not be humble. Master Jiu's contribution is certainly not small, but those of you who shed blood and sweat to defend your home and country are also the most respectable. No one here is a coward." Jiang Ning Harmonize from the middle.

"Chen Hao, you're right." Qin Ce agreed with Jiang Ning in a rare way, "Xiao Jiu and you are both admirable people, so don't be humble."

One side is his relatives, the other side is his lover, no matter which side Qin Ce is proud of them, especially Zhang Jiu, Qin Ce believes that if Qin Yi and Zhao Ye know all the things Zhang Jiu has done, they will be very proud of them. Zhang Jiu will definitely look at him differently.

Qin Yi looked at Qin Ce, "To be honest, I used to hear rumors that Xiao Jiu was the noble person you were destined for. I didn't quite believe it. I thought it was pure nonsense, but now I really believe it. It is not an exaggeration to be your noble person, Hengzhi, you have to catch Xiaojiu well, he will definitely help you a lot."

"Yun Zhi is right. I didn't believe such rumors before, but after seeing Duo Xiaojiu, I have no choice but to believe it. Xiaojiu is not only a nobleman of Hengzhi, but also a nobleman of our Daqin. It seems that although the rumors You can't believe it all, and you can't believe it, not only Hengzhi, but we also need to cherish Xiaojiu, a noble person," Zhao Ye added to Qin Yi's words.

For the two of them, Jiang Ning agreed a hundred times, "Jiu Ye is a lucky star, no matter where he goes, he can benefit one party. I have never doubted this. I have already had personal experience of this, so in this life I I'm planning to hang out with Master Jiu, life is his person and death is his death, follow Master Jiu to have meat to eat"

It was obviously all compliments, but when Jiang Ning said it, it made people feel uncomfortable. There was a creepy feeling, and Zhang Jiu couldn't stand it and gave him a supercilious look.

Qin Ce, on the other hand, was depressed by Jiang Ning's rhetoric, and felt that his territory had been violated, so he flew over with a few sharp eyes.

But Qin Yi and Zhao Ye were amused by Jiang Ning's interesting words, and couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, Qin Yi suddenly remembered something, and asked Zhang Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, didn't you say that you read these things from books? What kind of book? I'll send someone to look for it too."

Would they believe him if he said he saw it from a history textbook thousands of years later?Zhang Jiu felt that this possibility was zero, and almost without thinking about it, Zhang Jiu took out the previous rhetoric again, "I forgot what book, I read it a long time ago, if the elder brother didn't tell me, I would almost forgot"

Hearing Zhang Jiu's answer, Jiang Ning showed such an expression. Every time he asked Zhang Jiu, Zhang Jiu answered like this. Over time, he got used to it and stopped asking Zhang Jiu about the reason.

A very regretful look appeared on Qin Yi's face.

Zhao Ye patted him comfortingly, "It's nothing, even if you don't have books, don't you already know so much? This is enough to help us."

Zhang Jiu looked at Qin Yi, then at Zhao Ye, and suddenly felt like a sinner, feeling that he had given them hope and let them down. Suddenly Zhang Jiu had a flash of light in his mind and thought of something very important. Immediately stretched his eyebrows and said, "Brother, have you ever heard of iron?"

"镔铁?" Not only Qin Yi, but everyone present is very unfamiliar with this name.

"It's iron," Zhang Jiu said excitedly, and took out the dagger that Zhao Ye gave him. 'Reputation, if we can develop iron, why worry about the Hutes?"

"But how can we develop tin iron?" Qin Ce pointed out a very practical problem.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Zhang Jiu said, "I remember that the book seems to say that it is made of two or more kinds of steel and iron materials with large differences in carbon content, and it is said that wrought iron, charcoal and The steel made from the mixture of other substances melted in the crucible is also said to be smelted from copper and iron. We can try them one by one. By the way, the temperature should not be too high or too low when forging tin and iron. It’s very difficult to grasp, we should find some skilled masters to do it.”

The thing about 镔铁 is the one Zhang Jiu remembers most clearly, because when he was studying the history of the Yuan Dynasty, he happened to see this name, and was very curious about how the ancients made this sharp weapon, so he searched a lot about this kind of thing on the Internet. Knowledge, I didn't expect it to come in handy.

"Very good, I'll arrange it right away." Qin Yi is definitely a quick-tempered person when it comes to weapons, and he can't wait to go back and find someone to try.

Zhao Ye directly pressed Qin Yi on the seat, "Yun Zhi, wait until we have dinner before going, Xiao Jiu has been talking all morning, and you don't want to let him rest?"

Qin Yi smiled embarrassingly, "I was in a hurry, okay, let's go after we have dinner."

However, under Qin Yi's constant urging, the meal was eaten very quickly. Under pressure, the few people ate non-stop and then went to the place where Da Qin specially made weapons for the imperial court.

It was summer at this time, and as soon as he entered the blacksmithing room, a burst of hot air came towards him. Zhang Jiu suddenly felt that the temperature had risen by more than ten degrees. He frowned uncomfortably, and began to sweat outwards. Getting used to it, Zhang Jiu felt that he didn't want to stay in such a difficult place at all, and began to worry about whether he would suffer from heat stroke.

But because of Qin Yi, Zhang Jiu held back and followed him inward. The closer he got to the stove, the higher the temperature. Zhang Jiu saw that all the people in the blacksmithing room were all naked, with sweat dripping down. But he didn't hear a voice of complaint, Zhang Jiu really respected these people.

While Zhang Jiu was observing around, there was some coolness blowing from the side. Zhang Jiu tilted his head and saw that Qin Ce was fanning him, and Qin Ce himself was soaked like him. Zhang Jiu immediately stopped Qin Ce. , said in a low voice, "I'm not that weak, so I don't need to fan."

Qin Ce obediently stopped fanning and put away his fan. He would sweat even if he moved in such a place, and he was also very uncomfortable.

Not much different from Zhang Jiu and Qin Ce, Jiang Ning was also sweating profusely at this time, with all his clothes stuck to his body, secretly thinking in his heart that he would never come to this kind of place again, this is simply not a place for people to stay.

Compared with the three of them, Qin Yi and Zhao Ye were very calm, and there was almost no discomfort. They started talking with the blacksmith, and took the hammer from time to time to hit them a few times.
