Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Li Daozhen looked at Chen Jinyong vigilantly, and slowly frowned: "What are you here for? It's not just to deliver this letter, is it? Chen Lang needs someone by his side, and he can find anyone to do this!"
"Jinyong is ordered by the lord to protect the safety of the young master!" Chen Jinyong got up and put on his cloak again.A look of tiredness.
Li Daozhen said: "Xiao Tao, go and arrange for Manager Chen to rest!"
Chen Jinyong said lightly: "No need, I still have to go to Wild Boar Ridge!"
"Now?" Li Daozhen heard the howling wind outside the window: "What are you doing at Wild Boar Ridge?"
Chen Jinyong said: "Go and get back what belongs to the Lord!"
Li Daozhen naturally understood what Chen Jinyong was referring to, that was the military power of the left and right guards of Lingwu. Since Chen Ying was transferred back to Lingzhou, the imperial court dismantled part of the Lingwu Left Army and Lingwu Right Army, and resupplied them under the name of Changshui Huqi. Among the left and right military guards, there are still more than [-] Lingwu right soldiers in the hands of Ashina Simo.
……
After not moving for a long time, the fat around Yu Guni's waist has grown wildly, and he has gained a full circle of fat.At this time, in Ruoda's tent, several Qiang girls were wearing revealing little clothes, dancing to the sound of silk and bamboo.
"Three stone saucepans."
"Drink the spring water with milk tea."
"Gaotang Dafangmei doesn't love her,"
"Wish to live in the rock nest with elder brother."
The Qiang people themselves have no cultural traditions, and their songs are almost straightforward.Of course, the most important thing is that these Qiang girls puffed up their chests and didn't care about the wolf-like green light under Yu Guni's command.
One of the Qiang women was particularly bold, almost forcing her body into Yu Guni's arms.
As the saying goes, it is ten times more beautiful to see a beauty under the lamp than usual. At this time, the candle is flickering, and the soft light shines on the face of the Qiang girl. She has healthy chestnut skin, teeth full of shells when she smiles, and a delicate red color. Her lips are as attractive as jelly, and after intense exercise, she gasped for breath, a pair of cute jade rabbits bouncing around on her chest, making Yu Guni dazzled for a while.
"You, you, you, stay, let the others leave!" Yu Guni buried his head in the chest of a Qiang, and the feeling of suffocation made Yu Guni yell out again and again.
Just when Yu Guni was about to go further, he suddenly found an unexpected guest in the tent.Yu Guni suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing that the black shadow did not move, he lowered his voice and asked, "Are you a human or a ghost?"
"Yu Guni, look at you, you can't fit the saddle around your hips and waist, can you? It seems that it is difficult to find a war horse that can carry you. From now on, you can ride a mule!"
Hearing Heiying's words, Yu Guni recognized Chen Jinyong's voice, he pushed the Qiang girl in his arms away, and shouted sharply: "Presumptuous, how dare you talk to this general like that!"
Chen Jinyong came out from the dark shadows to the light of the candlelight, and said expressionlessly, "I'm here to get back the Lord's things, do you know how to do it?"
"What... what?"
Yu Guni looked at Chen Jinyong in shock.
Power is a deadly poison, but just like drugs, once you enjoy the taste of power, you can't stop it.
"Don't pretend to be confused here!" Chen Jinyong shouted coldly: "In a word, give or not?"
At this time, Yu Guni was the uncrowned king of Lingzhou.Controlling the life and death of tens of thousands of people, the taste of this kind of power is very strange.Yu Guni was also very obsessed with this feeling, but this moment also made him sober. This power was given by Chen Ying, and Chen Ying can naturally take it back at any time.
Although Chen Jinyong is good at skills, Yu Guni has ten thousand ways to make Chen Jinyong die silently.
However, in the end Yu Guni still sighed, took off a gold-plated bronze medal from his waist, and threw it to Chen Jinyong.
Chen Jinyong took the bronze medal, looked at it, confirmed that it was the trust of the Lingwu Lingjun, and left satisfied.
However, just as Chen Jinyong walked out of the tent, in a short while, there were dense sounds of horseshoes coming from outside the tent.
Yu Guni suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and did not do anything irreversible. It was obvious that Chen Jinyong did not believe him. He contacted Ashina Simo first, and then found him.Suddenly, there was a familiar smell in the big tent, which turned out to be kerosene.Chen Ying once used distillation to obtain a kind of fire oil as clear as water, which burned very rapidly and would explode if placed in a sealed container.
At this moment, Yu Guni's complexion changed drastically, and he ran barefoot outside the tent towards the direction where Chen Jinyong disappeared, jumped up and cursed: "You mother thief!"
……
The land deed for five miles in Yuhe Township, which is sixty miles east of Chang'an, has already come into Chen Ying's hands.At this time, Chen Ying was also a landlord with ten thousand mu of land.However, all the land in Qinglinli and Laohuaili is directly owned by Chen, while the land in Shangyuli, Xiayuli and Yuheli are all under the name of Chen Ying.
Chen Ying looked at the contract signed by Wu Li in front of him, and said with a smile: "This is the most sensible thing in your life. In the future, even if the landlord owns a thousand acres of fertile land, it will not be as good as your life."
On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month in the second year of Wude, according to the operating procedures formulated by Chen Ying, the Yuhe Township Iron and Steel Plant in Wannian County finally completed all the preparatory work after more than a dozen simulation drills.
The blast furnace located on the banks of the Jieyu River has been baked at low temperature for eight days. After careful inspection, there is no suspicious crack; The next four times, I tried idling, and the condition was very good each time. Now it is full of oil and it runs without any blockage.
"Grandfather, grandpa, bless you, smelting stones into iron, forging iron into steel..." Ge Tong, Wei Meng, Yan Shihu and other master craftsmen twisted up three sticks of incense with both hands, lit them on the candles, raised them reverently above their heads, and bowed three times. Then insert it into the incense burner in front of the statue of Taishang Laojun.
This time the opening ceremony was unusual, because in addition to Chen Ying's participation, even the Prince of the Eastern Palace Li Jiancheng also arrived here.Seeing Li Jiancheng piously inserting the three sticks of incense into the incense burner like a craftsman, the craftsmen couldn't be more excited.
With the sound of crackling firecrackers, Chen Ying reluctantly presided over the start-up of the first blast furnace of Chang'an Yuhe Iron and Steel Plant.The firecrackers of this era are just a piece of bamboo, stuffed with some saltpeter, thrown into a brazier to burn, and then they will make a sound, but the sound is only a little louder than farting.
Chen Ying shouted in a deep voice: "Gufeng!"
The rotating shaft pulled by five cows began to rotate slowly.Driven by the rotating shaft and the gear set, the rotary motion becomes the reciprocating motion of the bellows piston, accompanied by the chirping and rattling of the woodwork, and fresh air is blown into the blast furnace from the air duct.
The axle turns slowly.The wind pressure of the blower is small.Insufficient oxygen supply in the furnace.Thick black smoke billowed from the top of the stove.As the speed of the shaft turns faster and faster.The oxygen supply in the furnace is sufficient.The smoke from the ground turns from black to green.From green to white.The color is getting lighter and lighter.at last.A great flame rose merrily from the top of the furnace.
Li Jiancheng asked nervously: "Chen Qing, can this furnace really yield [-] catties of iron?"
"His Royal Highness, I have to correct you, this furnace does not produce iron, but steel!" Chen Ying poured Li Jiancheng a cup of tea: "His Royal Highness, calm down, calm down, this furnace of steel will be produced by this time tomorrow." to come out!"
It is obviously impossible for Li Jiancheng to calm down.
This blast furnace steelmaking is really beyond the limit of Li Jiancheng's cognition.Li Jiancheng couldn't believe it when he heard Pei Ju's secret letter from Lingzhou, but when Pei Ju's second secret letter arrived, Li Jiancheng couldn't sit still anymore.He even came forward to use the influence of the Prince of the East Palace to get Wei Ting to lobby Jingzhao Wei and Jingzhao Du to sell their land near the Jieyu Line to Chen Ying. Since then, Chen Ying has actually controlled five All the land in this village, not counting bad fields, is more than 360 mu of farmland alone, reaching 550 mu, [-] mu of woodland, [-] mu of wasteland and land without any planting value and lower And so on, Chen Ying actually controls more than [-] mu of land.
If the number of fertile land is not counted, but only in terms of unit area, Chen Ying is already the largest landlord in Wannian County at this time.
Chapter 1 Zero Seven
Chapter 1 Zero Seven
Of course, the landlord Chen Ying did not intend to develop all the more than [-] mu of land into arable land at all, but planned to use two-thirds of it to establish a heavy industrial zone in Chang'an City.
Because of Yang Rong's piece of land in Laohuai, Chen Ying's carriage workshop has been expanded, and the production capacity has been greatly improved. More than 130 apprentices can manufacture more than 600 wheels and corresponding carriages every month. If he is not worried about the overcapacity of high-end carriages and the backlog of four-wheeled carriages, Chen should be able to produce [-] carriages per month.
Although Chen Ying maintains the production capacity of twelve carriages per month, it can bring Donggong [-] guan in revenue.
In this world, there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests.Chen Ying has formed a solid interest alliance with Donggong with all his properties.
Because the income from the four-wheeled carriage was paid, when he learned that Chen Ying was planning to build a steel factory, Li Jiancheng supported him without reservation.Li Jiancheng was worried that the development of the iron and steel plant would make others jealous, and Chen Ying had no way to expand production capacity, so the princess even launched wife diplomacy. Speaking of Yuwen Shi and his wife, the Shouguang County Lord, the land in Yuwen Shi and Jiang Yuhe was almost worthless. The free price was given to Chen Ying.
However, Li Jiancheng could not remain calm. If it is true as Chen Ying said, this blast furnace can produce more than [-] jin of steel, and the profit alone will be as much as [-] jin, which will exceed [-] jin in a month. Unlike horse-drawn carriages, horse-drawn carriages are a necessity, but steel is different. It is a necessity for people's production and life. Controlling Datang's steel production capacity, for Datang, is simply the lifeline of Datang.
Coke steelmaking is different from charcoal steelmaking. Coke heats up quickly. In just an hour, you can see from the observation hole on the side that the iron ore has turned bright red and turned orange, and gradually there is liquid molten iron. Appears on the bottom of the furnace.
Li Jiancheng watched the bright red molten iron appear in the furnace, and danced excitedly: "The iron is tapped, the iron is tapped!"
Chen Ying smiled wryly and said, "His Royal Highness, it's still early. It will take at least four hours to melt all the nearly [-] jin of iron ore in this furnace. It's still early..."
"It's only four hours, I can afford to wait!"
