Daqin: Check in at the beginning of 18 and ask Zulong to abdicate

Pig iron products are inferior to bronze products in terms of sharpness and durability.

The weapons are still mainly bronze.Ironware has been widely used in civilian products because of its cheap advantage!

The steel and weapons made by the new smelting technology are so sharp and durable!

This shocked everyone present, except Ying Zigao.

Liu Bowen and Yuhuatian were shocked and even more excited!
The performance of iron weapons is so good that it can completely replace bronze weapons.

The country's precious bronze resources can be withdrawn from the field of weapon production and used to cast a large amount of copper coins!

Sufficient currency in circulation in the market can drive the development of the market and accelerate the circulation of goods!
It can make the business develop faster!

"Your Majesty, the weapons produced by Baisteel are so sharp and durable! And the cost is so low, and the output is so large!"

Yu Huatian couldn't help but said excitedly: "My humble minister has the courage to implore His Majesty to build more government-run iron smelting workshops, and vigorously produce steel, especially the weapons that have just been made by Bailian!

Equip the army in large quantities, eliminate all the bronze weapons of the army, cast them into copper coins, and throw them into the world! "

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Liu Bowen also hurriedly said: "With more copper coins, the market circulation will be smoother and more convenient, it will be more convenient for merchants to do business, and the market will be more prosperous!
With the development of commerce, the court's tax revenue will rise and become more abundant! "

"You two lovers are right!" Ying Zigao became even more secretly excited, and hurriedly said, "That's what I planned too!"

While speaking, Ying Zigao had inserted the rough-looking steel sword into the scabbard!

Seeing that Ying Zigao directly used the steel sword as a saber, the Chinese people present couldn't help but be surprised.

The official from the Ministry of Industry hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this steel sword is too rough, let me send someone to decorate it, and you can wear it again!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, although this sword is sharp, durable and of high quality, it is too rough after all!"

Yuhuatian also hurriedly said: "Let the craftsmen decorate it well, and you can wear it again!"

"I just like this sword. It's sharp and durable!"

Ying Zi said loudly: "What I like is this simple and robust without extra decoration, this simple beauty!"

Hearing this, Yuhuatian couldn't help frowning slightly.

Liu Bowen was even more shocked!
It seems that Ying Zigao is going to promote a simple, vigorous, simple and beautiful fashion!
"My Daqin has a simple folk style since ancient times, advocating a vigorous style!"

Ying Zi said loudly: "After unifying the world, we must not forget our roots, we must adhere to simple and beautiful, not luxurious fashion!
To promote a simple and vigorous style! "

"I understand!" Yu Huatian and Liu Bowen said loudly in a hurry.

As he spoke, Yu Huatian looked at the exquisite jade pendant on his waist.

I couldn't help but secretly sighed: Your Majesty has now publicly stated that he will promote a simple and vigorous fashion, not luxurious, and the exquisite jade pendant that he finally obtained will not be able to be carried on his body in the future!

The ministers and officials couldn't help but look down at the decorations on their bodies, and several of them had quietly taken off the luxurious jade ornaments on their bodies.

Seeing the expressions of the ministers and officials, Ying Zigao couldn't help smiling.

Then he said, "What's the next step?"

"Your Majesty, the next step is to make steel in a crucible!"

The official in charge said hastily.

"Take me to see!" Ying Zi Gao hurriedly said!
While speaking, Ying Zigao and his party came to the crucible steelmaking process.

"Your Majesty, the artisans have carefully weighed charcoal powder, lime powder, and iron flakes according to the ratio required by the craft, and put them into the crucible, which is now being smelted in the crucible furnace!"

The small official in charge of the scene hurried up to greet him, and said carefully.

"It's done well." Ying Zigao came to the crucible, looked carefully, and asked seriously, "How much time is left for the furnace to come out?"

"The first batch of crucibles have been practiced for more than an hour."

The little official hurriedly said: "There is still half an hour, and I can practice well!"

Ying Zigao nodded and said to Yuhuatian and Liu Bowen, "Then let's wait another half an hour?"

Ying Zigao had already said that as the emperor, and the ministers Yuhuatian and Liu Bowen couldn't say anything more, so they had to agree.

Seeing that Ying Zigao decided to wait for the release of the first batch of crucible steel, the official in charge couldn't help but secretly became excited.

Busily said to Ying Zigao: "Your Majesty, take this opportunity, let's go to the farm tool workshop first!"

"Okay, let's take a look at the farm tools first!" Ying Zigao nodded and came to the farm tools workshop.

There is still some distance from the gate of the workshop.Lin Zigao heard a series of continuous, tinkling and fast noises again!

"You blacksmiths here are really hardworking."

Hearing this continuous and non-stop sound, Yu Huatian couldn't help being secretly surprised, and said with a slight smile: "Listen to the sound, forging irons is non-stop, never resting!"

Hearing this, the official in charge could not help but smile slightly: "Master Prime Minister, the craftsmen in the workshop are indeed not lazy in their work, but there is another reason why they continue without stopping!"

"Another reason?" Yuhuatian couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Master Prime Minister, you come with a humble position, you can tell it at a glance!"

The official in charge said respectfully.

Yu Huatian nodded with a smile, and walked into the farm tool workshop under the leadership of Ying Zigao.

Walking into the gate of the workshop, Yu Huatian was surprised to see that three forging hammers of different sizes were running back and forth non-stop, driven by water conservancy.

A large piece of red-hot iron ingot, under the grip of the craftsman, with three hydraulic forging hammers, quickly forged into iron pieces of different shapes, such as iron sheets, iron rods, iron plates, and iron rods.

Then they were transported to different small blacksmith workshops by peasants, and further processed and forged into sickles, hoes, picks, shovels, plowshares, hammers, axes and other agricultural tools and tool parts.

In the end, it's assembled into a piece of farm implements by the implement craftsman!

After a while, in the finished product area, all kinds of processed agricultural tools piled up into a hill!

Yuhuatian Liu Bowen and other ministers couldn't help being surprised to see so many farm implements and tools being produced so quickly!
"Your Majesty, this is the sickle we just produced!"

The official in charge took a sickle from the officer in charge and handed it to Ying Zigao with both hands.

Ying Zigao took the sickle from the hand of the accompanying eunuch and looked at it carefully.

I saw that this sickle is exquisite in workmanship, with a sharp and durable edge, and it is much more refined than the common agricultural tools on the market.He couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction.

Immediately, he ordered the accompanying guard officer: "Bring the weapon used by the soldiers!"
