"I thought about it, if I extend the pottery pipe and make it made of copper and iron, and bake it with charcoal fire, wouldn't the wind be hot?"
Chen Qing nodded: "Yes, it should be like this. Why are you frowning?"
Tian Zhou slapped his thigh and pointed to the majestic blast furnace: "The villain suddenly woke up at night one day with a flash of inspiration.
We are guarding such a big stove, and we have to spend extra coal to heat the air duct, it is really crazy!
When the blast furnace was built, the copper pipes should have been buried in the furnace wall! "
He hurriedly walked to the position of the air inlet: "Your Highness, Chen Fuling, please take a look."
"If double rows of copper pipes are used to bury it, as long as the distance is well controlled, it will not be far or close to the inner wall."
"Not only can the cold air be baked by the furnace temperature, but you don't have to worry about it being baked."
"The copper pipe goes around the furnace for a circle, no matter how cold the wind is, it should be hot!"
Fusu suddenly realized and nodded, and couldn't help admiring Tian Zhou's fantastic idea.
Tian Zhou said dejectedly: "There is also the waste residue discharged from that furnace."
"A few days ago, Shaofu Lu sent someone to ask for a truckload, saying that they wanted to try out the cement formula."
"I didn't expect it to be so effective!"
"The slag pond is too close to the blast furnace. Usually, the slag is poured with water when the slag is about to solidify, and it is taken out after it is broken."
"But to burn cement, the finer the slag, the better."
"The villain has no choice but to..."
Tian Zhou said with a bitter face: "Send people back and forth to fetch water from the river, and the slag is poured out as soon as it comes out of the furnace. The daily water consumption has increased dozens of times out of thin air."
"And the water vapor is scorching hot, so that people can't get close, and if they are not careful, they can easily hurt people."
"If we had known this earlier, we should have kept the slag pool farther away, and set up water trucks to fetch water."
Thinking that he was full of ambition and deeply trusted by Chen Qing, but in the end he built the blast furnace full of mistakes and omissions, Tian Zhou suddenly felt deeply guilty.
"The villain owes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Chen Fuling entrusts him with great care."
"Your Highness, please punish me."
Fu Su hurriedly said: "Is there anyone without fault? Besides, who can know it from birth. It's really absurd to judge crimes based on this."
Chen Qing said with a smile: "I found that all of you are very good!"
"I just said that the cold air should be turned into hot air. You even figured out how to heat the air with the waste heat from the blast furnace."
"I didn't even mention the cement formula, but you also discovered that iron slag waste can be made into cement."
"Who did it?"
"Come here to receive the reward!"
He turned his head, pointed at Tian Zhou and said, "Your Highness, can this man reach a hundred thousand troops?"
"Isn't it an exaggeration for a humble official to reward him with the salary of an eighth-rank public vehicle?"
Chapter 274
Tian Zhou was a little confused.
Chen Qing had already mentioned in front of the First Emperor that craftsmen should be rewarded according to military merit titles.
He was right there at the time and could hear him clearly.But instinct told him not to wishful thinking.
The title system of public servants in Daqin is not too high, but for ordinary people, its title salary is already frighteningly generous.
The first is the land of 20 houses, and then the land of twenty hectares.
There are still 400 stone grains available every year!
In other words, one person leading the Duke of Public Vehicles is enough to support a family of hundreds of people.
In terms of locality, it is not a powerful but also a country gentry.
And the title can be downgraded and inherited.
Tian Zhou took the title of Duke, his son could be demoted two levels to the position of doctor, and his grandson could be promoted to the position of Zao.
As long as the descendants are undefeated, the family can be guaranteed to prosper for a hundred years!
Fusu nodded and said, "Tian Zhou manages the iron industry and builds ordnance for the Western Expeditionary Army. Only with a strong armor and strong soldiers can the sergeant be victorious and invincible."
"There is nothing wrong with rewarding the Lord of the Public Vehicle."
He deliberately avoided the rhetoric that Chen Qing said earlier that he could reach a hundred thousand troops.
It's okay to talk about this in private, but if the general hears it, he will definitely feel jealous.
Chen Qing would definitely not be afraid, and few dared to provoke him.
Tian Zhou is hard to say.
"Brother Tian, did you hear that?"
"His Royal Highness has already agreed to your title of public servant."
Chen Qinglue thought for a while: "It's not good to make a big fanfare about this, so as not to cause troubles from the army. How about appointing you as an eighth-level worker?"
"The names are different, but the treatment is all the same. The money, food and land are allocated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Tian Zhou was excited and incoherent: "Villain...don't dare to covet the achievements of the heavens. This matter was not done by someone in Tian, and all the brothers and sisters contributed."
He turned around and pointed at the Mohist disciple with an envious look on his face: "Junior Brother Bao, in particular, contributed the most. The brass pipe is more than four feet long. To make it airtight, you must be a skilled craftsman."
"Thanks to Junior Brother Bao's skillful hands, otherwise Tian would be nothing more than rhetoric."
Chen Qing looked up: "Who is Junior Brother Bao?"
A tall and thin young man with a long and narrow face stood up and lowered his head cautiously: "The villain Baoshan, I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Chen Fuling."
It was only at this time that Chen Qing realized that Bao Shan not only had a long face and a long body, but also his arms were too long, almost reaching his knees.
and……
Bao Shan is very sensitive to other people's gaze. He quickly put his hands behind his back, and then smiled dryly: "The villain was born with six fingers, and was abandoned by his family since he was a child. Fortunately, he met Master and saw me begging for food on the street." Poor, I was taken in by the Mo Sect, and only then did I learn a whole body of skills."
"Your Highness wants to reward, please reward my master, villains dare not take credit."
Chen Qing smiled: "What's the matter?"
"The rich rely on technology, but what do the poor rely on if they don't rely on mutation?"
"Bao Shan, you are a god-given skillful hand, don't belittle yourself."
"One more question, have you married a wife?"
Bao Shan blushed with embarrassment: "The villain has not yet married, and there are many senior brothers who have not yet married. In a few years, it will not be too late for them to marry after they have married."
When he said this, his twelve fingers were tangled together vigorously, obviously he was very restless.
Chen Qing saw what the other party was thinking.
Because he was born with six fingers, he was often discriminated against and teased, which caused Bao Shan to have a low self-esteem.
Isn't this nonsense?
A craftsman of a great country who can make a four-foot-long copper pipe airtight with one hand!
Can't even marry a wife, is it plausible?
"Your Highness, the handicraft of Baoshan is also outstanding among Qin Mo, and it is indeed the best in the world."
"In the current situation, I am really sorry for his ability."
"My minister thinks that he should be rewarded with the title of a public official, and he should be called a seventh-level worker to the outside world."
Tian Zhou was rewarded, and Qin Mo's disciples were not surprised.
Because among the many seniors, he has the highest professional skills and the longest time to get started.
But Baoshan, an unknown person, suddenly got a big reward, which immediately aroused everyone's attention, and they all speculated whether it would be his turn next.
Fusu couldn't help laughing.
Chen Qing is good at defending his own people, and the title of title is like no money.
However, Qin Mo's craftsmen have made great achievements, and they occupy a pivotal position in Daqin's five-year development plan.
The position of a mere public carrier or a public official is nothing.
He nodded slowly, accepting the matter.
"Tian Zhou, who else has contributed to this?"
Chen Qing waved his hand at Bao Shan: "What are you doing in a daze, you have the land, the house, and the salary. If you can't marry a wife again, I will force an orchid into your bed, and give birth to a skilled craftsman sooner."
Bao Shan took a while to react, and hastily bowed and said, "I don't want Hu Ji, I only want to marry a Daqin wife. Thank you for the generosity of the Chen family order, I am very grateful."
Chen Qing laughed and said, "Why don't you want orchids? Isn't this already available?"
Bao Shan hesitated for a while before saying: "The villain is already ugly, if he marries an orchid and gives birth to a long-haired monster with green eyes, wouldn't it damage his bloodline?"
……
"You're so picky."
"go Go."
Chen Qing waved away the opponent and cast his gaze on Tian Zhou.
"My lord, the deer..."
"Cough cough."
Before Tian Zhou finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Xianweng's heavy coughing.
Chen Qing joked: "Young Master Lu's Mansion, it's not like I didn't hear about it before."
Lu Xianweng stood up in embarrassment, and bowed his hands: "My lord, don't blame me, it's all the people below shouting. It's a joke, don't take it seriously."
"The villain has never claimed to be a young man, please be aware of it."
Chen Qing couldn't help being amused.
Are you lying to ghosts by saying this?
When the New Year's gift was issued before New Year's Eve, the two of you walked with the energy of [-] million shares.
I can't wait to put a note on my forehead 'Grandfather is developed'.
"I see."
"Old Lu, what credit have you made?"
Chen Qing stared at him playfully.
"The villain has no merit."
"but……"
"By coincidence, the craftsmen of the Cheng family in Bashu saw the villain facing Xianghe and revealed news of a treasure."
"It is very useful in smelting iron."
Deer Fairy Weng said in a cadence.
The corner of Chen Qing's mouth curled up, and he immediately understood what was going on.
Tian Zhou is Xiangli Ling's natal family and his confidant.
It stands to reason that when he is not around, Tian Zhou should be in charge of all affairs.
When they can't stand the deer and the crane are enough to show off, they will put on airs.
Tian Zhou is also an honest man who doesn't like to fight for power and profit.
The uninformed craftsman naturally thought that the deer and the crane were the deacons.
Those who want to curry favor will naturally take the initiative to find them.
"What treasure is it?"
"Why didn't you present it?"
