Chapter 841 Let’s Not Talk About This, You and I Are Still Good Brothers! Chang’an Furnace? Qin Wangzheng’s Fifteen-Style Furnace!

Da Qin Junchen: Huh? ? ?

The furnace produced 1,200 stones, which was 133 times higher than the current Da Qin Blast Furnace. Many ministers were so excited that they almost smoked it!

Even Lu Buwei and Wei Liao had blood rushing to their brains. They wanted to give up all their original plans and immediately equip every Great Qin soldier with iron armor, and distribute iron farm tools to every Great Qin Qian capital. Complete the Great Leap Forward!

As a result, in your eyes, it is a trivial matter that is not worth telling the king about?

We all know that Chang'an Jun is a good craftsman.

But Changan-kun, don’t you think what you said is a bit much?

Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask: "The output of this blast furnace is a full 133 times higher than the blast furnaces in Da Qin today!"

"In Brother Wang's eyes, this blast furnace is not worth telling Brother Nai specifically?"

"Then in the opinion of Brother Wang, what kind of creation is worthy of telling Brother Nai?!"

Ying Chengyu said seriously: "I'll wait until I can master the art of steel-making!"

In the later era when the furnace output was often tens of thousands of tons, the blast furnace built by Ying Chengyu could not even be considered a black factory or a small workshop.

Even during the Shenzhou Lushen period, most local warlords looked down upon the blast furnace built by Ying Chengyu.

Even Ying Chengyu didn't feel that the output of 72 tons per furnace was anything to be proud of.

More importantly, the fundamental reason why the blast furnace built by Ying Chengyu achieved a qualitative breakthrough in output was that Ying Chengyu produced coke!

Now that coke has been refined, is it still difficult to extract gas?

Now that coal gas can be extracted, is it still far before Daqin enters the era of open-hearth steelmaking?

If you can wear steel armor, who would wear iron armor!

Ying Zheng asked seriously: "Where is the art of steelmaking?"

Ying Chenglong: (#`n)

Ying Chengyu said with an unhappy face: "If you don't mention this, you and I are still good brothers!"

Why don't you open which pot and pick up which pot?

If I had mastered the art of steel-making, I would have already run to the study room and stood on your desk without even needing to say hello to you.

Do you even need to ask? !

Ying Zheng smiled softly and said seriously: "Brother Nai believes that Brother Wang will definitely be able to develop a method of making steel!"

"Brother Wang, there is no need to be anxious."

"Of course, iron materials are related to people's livelihood!"

"The iron produced from Brother Wang's blast furnace is even more relevant to our Great Qin army!"

"If we build these blast furnaces all over Da Qin one day earlier, the life of our Da Qin head in Guizhou will be a little easier, and the armor of our Da Qin soldiers will be a little stronger."

"My brother Wang's wish has yet to be fulfilled."

"But just the blast furnace developed by Brother Wang is enough to be a powerful weapon for our great Qin to rejuvenate the country!"

Taking a step back, Ying Zheng bowed his hands and shouted in a deep voice: "On behalf of Da Qin, I would like to thank Lord Chang'an!"

When Li Si, Lu Buwei and other ministers saw this, they shook their sleeves and handed over their hands in the most solemn manner: "Let me thank you Lord Chang'an!"

However, Ying Chengyu turned sideways to avoid the salute of the Qin emperor and ministers, and then returned the salute with his hands raised: "You are so complimentary."

"This Qinwangzheng 15th-style blast furnace was certainly built under my guidance, but without the help of all the craftsmen, I would not have been able to complete this blast furnace."

"Those who have worked hard and devoted their energy on this fifteen-type blast furnace include Zhang Linghan, the master of Xiyuan, Shaofu, Qi Ai, the master craftsman, Liu Ji, and other craftsmen."

"They are the main contributors to this 15-type blast furnace!"

What Ying Chengyu said was sincere.

Ying Chengxuan's greatest contribution to this blast furnace was to come up with coke and Duhai-type water discharge blowers, which gave the blast furnace room for great progress in both height and volume. The second was to directly come up with the five-stage Blast furnace design ideas.

All the construction materials of this blast furnace, such as refractory bricks and sealing mud, were taken from materials that originally existed in this era.

The blast furnace's inner cavity air flow control, ore selection, material ratio and other technologies are also the efforts of Zhang Han, Qi Ai and other craftsmen.

Even the caves for burning coke were built by Da Qin craftsmen who provided technology and materials, and then Ying Chengyu adjusted their designs.

Ying Chengyu, who was tortured during the development of the open-hearth furnace, knew very well that it was precisely because the craftsmen of this era had advanced the technology of blast furnaces and kilns to a certain level, and had an in-depth understanding of blast furnaces and kilns that they could Ying Chengyu completed the blast furnace in just a few months.

Ying Chengyu had merit, and it was decisive, but he was by no means the only one!

The disgraced Zhang Han hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Chang'an Jun is very complimentary! Really ridiculous!"

Then Zhang Han looked at Ying Zheng and explained seriously: "Your Majesty, whether it is the shape, appearance or internal structure of this blast furnace, it was all drawn by Chang'an Lord."

"I am just following the instructions of Lord Chang'an to build it."

"I may have made a small contribution, but it is definitely not as big as Lord Chang'an said!"

Seeing that Liu Ji was about to go out, Qi Ai grabbed Liu Ji and shook his head with a smile.

Liu Ji's eyes showed doubts. Just as he was about to ask in a low voice, he saw Ying Zheng, Han Cang and other senior ministers all laughing and shaking their heads.

Chang'an Jun began to shirk credit again.

They who should cooperate with Chang'an Jun in performing should naturally perform with all their heart.

Ying Zheng said firmly: "I firmly believe in Lord Chang'an."

"Since Lord Chang'an has expressed his merits for Zhang Ling, it means that Zhang Ling is indeed capable!"

Zhang Han wanted to explain one more thing, but Ying Zheng didn't give Zhang Han a chance and said decisively: "Order!"

"The deposed general will assume the post of Zhang Linghan, the master of the West Garden of the Shaofu."

"Promote Zhang Han to be the Minister of the Ministry of Works!"

"For his contribution in developing the Chang'an furnace, I specially confer the title of Grand Master to Zhang Han!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's order, the Minister of the Ministry of Works Zhao Cheng's eyes turned red!

I still remember that four years ago, Zhang Han was just a water official under the Dushui Yamen under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu. It was only because he was responsible for building the moat, his work scope was linked to the fermentation pond, and his work attitude was serious and loyal to the Qin Dynasty that he was transferred to the Ministry of Works to make Chang'an paper with Ying Chengjiao.

As a result, it only took four years for Zhang Han to climb from a water official to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Works!

Although the Ministry of Works has one official and two secretaries, once Zhang Han, who stands behind Ying Chengjiao, takes office, he will naturally become the second-in-command of the Ministry of Works!

And all this is just because Zhang Han followed the right person four years ago!

Zhang Han's head was even more buzzing.

Grand Master?

Since I was transferred to the position of Shaofu Dushuili and started to follow the route of a technical official, I thought that if I did not change my title, it would accompany me for the rest of my life.

As a result, I actually had the opportunity to be awarded the title of Guanfu? !

For a while, the desire for fame and fortune in his heart made it difficult for Zhang Han to say no.

However, Zhang Han could not say no, but Ying Chengjiao said with a face full of resistance: "Your Majesty, this furnace is called the Fifteenth Type Blast Furnace, and its full name is the Fifteenth Year Type Blast Furnace of Qin Wangzheng!"

"Not the Chang'an Furnace!"

"Your Majesty is the king of the Qin Dynasty, but you can't change the name of this furnace at will!"

The reason why Ying Chengjiao named this blast furnace without discussing it with Ying Zheng was that he was afraid that Ying Zheng would arbitrarily name it Chang'an.

If this continues, wouldn't most of the objects that people in the world come into contact with in their lives be named Chang'an?

The result was something Ying Chengjiao never expected.

Even though Ying Chengjiao had repeatedly emphasized the name of the blast furnace, Ying Zheng still gave it the name of Chang'an!

Ying Zheng casually said: "It's just a name, it's easy to remember and easy to pronounce."

"I think the word Chang'an is easy to pronounce!"

In Ying Zheng's opinion, there is no word in the world that sounds better than the word 'Chang'an'!

Ying Chengjiao decisively retorted: "It's not easy to remember at all!"

"The Chang'an paper I developed has undergone three innovations, and each innovation is under the name of Chang'an paper."

"I am unable to explain to the world the difference between each generation of Chang'an paper, and it is difficult for the world to judge the difference between each generation of Chang'an paper, so there are many disputes between buyers and sellers, and it gives unscrupulous merchants an opportunity to run rampant."

"The fifteenth type blast furnace is just a casual development of the flat furnace by me, and I will definitely improve it in the future."

"When my brother develops a better blast furnace, what should the blast furnace be called?"

"Should it still be called Chang'an furnace?"

Faced with Ying Chengjiao's questioning, Ying Zheng was speechless.

In the world, which craftsman can innovate as fast as Ying Chengjiao?

Ying Zheng's naming method is applicable to most craftsmen in the world, but not to Ying Chengjiao!

Seeing that Ying Zheng had no words to refute, Ying Chengjiao decisively said: "I insist that this furnace should be named Qin Wangzheng Fifteen Year Blast Furnace!"

"If this furnace is really named Chang'an Furnace, I will no longer have the heart to innovate!"

After Ying Zheng was silent for a few breaths, he looked at Ying Chengjiao helplessly and moved and said: "My brother, my brother!"

"What can I say about you!"

In Ying Zheng's view, all the reasons Ying Chengjiao said were bullshit!

Listen to the name Ying Chengjiao gave to this blast furnace!

Qin Wangzheng Fifteen Year Blast Furnace!

It's Qin! King! Zheng! Fifteen Year Blast Furnace!

Ying Chengjiao clearly wanted Ying Zheng to be recorded in history for these creations and to be loved by the people of the world!

How can I live up to my brother's sincere kindness!

Taking a deep breath, Ying Zheng said seriously: "Since my brother insists, I will follow his advice this time."

"Yes, only this time! Never again!"

Ying Chengjiao smiled immediately: "Your Majesty is wise!"

How can there be no such thing as never again?

In Ying Chengjiao's view, everything is zero and countless times!

In a good mood, Ying Chengjiao brought Zhang Han back again.

Tugged at Zhang Han's arm, Ying Chengjiao said seriously: "Doctor Zhang has been with me for four years."

"After I am done with the craftsmanship, I like to have a long talk with Doctor Zhang."

"I think that although Doctor Zhang is good at water control, logging, and construction, his talent in military strategy is even more outstanding!"

Hearing what Ying Chengjiao said, the eyes of the Qin monarch and his ministers all turned to Zhang Han!

You know, even Li Xin, who was once regarded as the backbone of the young and vigorous faction, has never been evaluated by Ying Chengjiao as "outstanding in talent".

This technical official in charge of water conservancy and paper making has received such a high evaluation from Ying Chengjiao!

No one doubts Ying Chengjiao's vision.

The emperor and his ministers of the Qin Dynasty all felt the ecstasy of picking up a pearl from the sea.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han with a fiery and serious look, smiled and nodded, and said: "Zhang Han?"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Although Ying Zheng did not directly transfer Zhang Han to the military camp.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhang Han has been firmly remembered by Ying Zheng, and he will send Zhang Han to the battlefield when the time is right!

Zhang Han, who was looked at in this way, didn't know what to do: "Your Majesty, I, your minister, your minister..."

Do you want to say that I will not let down your expectations? But this official just has some ideas, maybe I will become a person who talks about war on paper!

Are you saying that I am not as good at military strategy as Changan Jun said? But how can I deny Changan Jun's ability to judge people!

Zhang Han could only look to Ying Chengjiao for help.

In the end, Ying Chengjiao only cared about killing him and not burying him!

After formally introducing Zhang Han to Ying Zheng, Ying Chengjiao waved to the crowd again: "Mr. Liu!"
