Konoha Ninja Warrior

Chapter 86 Iron Smelting

When Tokugawa Yukimura and Taira Kiyomiyasu heard this hearty voice, they looked back and saw that the person coming was an old man. Although the old man's hair has turned gray in appearance, his body is still strong, with a straight posture and strong muscles. There is no trace of what an elderly person should look like from his body. The person who came was none other than Shigeo Aihara, the president of the Iron Country Iron Smelting Association.

"President Aihara, you are ridiculous. Even without me, I believe everyone here will have figured out the casting technology. I just accelerated the process." Tokugawa Yukimura bowed slightly to the old man and said: " And without your support, this iron-smelting blast furnace would not have been built."

Tokugawa Yukimura was grateful to him from the bottom of his heart for this. When he found him and told him this idea, he only had a vague idea. In addition, he did not understand the smelting industry, so the schematic diagram he drew was specious. , it is undoubtedly very difficult to rely on this to ask others to help you invest.

The one who decided to support the improvement and construction of this new smelting equipment against all opinions was Chairman Aihara. This kind of support cannot be exchanged for the little casting knowledge he gained back then. This old man is really passionate about the new and efficient iron smelting process. He is a truly respectable old man.

"You are all complimenting each other, and you haven't even told me what's the use of this." Yoshiyasu Tairaqiyo, who was waiting, was anxious and interrupted the polite conversation between the two. He didn't see how this big guy solved their encounter. There is a financial problem.

President Aihara was not angry and introduced cheerfully: "This new smelting equipment, if it can meet the design requirements, will increase the smelting efficiency dozens of times, and the steel output will also increase dozens of times." He is also a little proud of this big guy that everyone worked together to achieve.

"However, this equipment also has shortcomings. The manpower requirements are too high, especially the air supply system. Although such a huge air supply system can transport more air to increase the temperature in the furnace, it does not require twenty or thirty people. It can't rotate." Aihara pointed to the waterwheel-shaped device and said, "And with the digestion speed of this blast furnace, the supply requirements for raw materials are also very high. The entire workshop requires about two to three hundred people to operate."

However, this small shortcoming is not worth mentioning compared to its huge output, even Pingqing Jikang understands this truth.

"No, you are talking about ordinary people. If someone with chakra does it, it will not take fifty people." Tokugawa Yukimura said with a smile.

"How come a chakra samurai-sama comes to work in this hard place? Yukimura-sama, are you kidding me?" Aihara said, stroking his beard.

Hirakiyojikang seemed to have thought of something, and he said in surprise, "Hey, Yukimura, you don't want our students to do this, do you?"

"Why not?" Tokugawa Yukimura asked.

Pingqing Yoshikang still couldn't believe it, and said: "Our students all need training, how can they have time to work here?"

"You are making the problem complicated." Tokugawa Yukimura replied, "Our nearly a hundred students can be divided into five or six groups, with more than a dozen people in each group, and with the cooperation of more than a dozen workers here, the task can be completed. In this way, Come on, they just need to come and work every few days.”

Pingqing Jikang somewhat understood this approach, but he still had some doubts: "I'm afraid that these students who have never suffered since childhood will not be able to bear this kind of work."

Aihara, who was listening on the side, nodded in agreement: "Yes, these are future samurai-sama, how can they do such a job?"

Tokugawa Yukimura didn't take it seriously, and said: "They will agree, let's treat it as their tuition fees. You must know that their weekly meat, plus the medicinal materials they need from time to time, are a lot of expenses. And this It is also a kind of exercise, and it is also good for them to practice physical skills."

Heiqing Jikang looked at President Aihara, who was still so strong at such a young age, and nodded.But there is one thing that Tokugawa Yukimura did not say. Since he chose to join the Xueren Ryu, he should obey the management. He only wants the benefits but refuses to contribute. Then he must carefully consider the price.

Although Tokugawa Yukimura respected their opinions, that was before making a choice.If you choose to quit now, that is betrayal. At that time, he will let others know the fate of the betrayer.

While things were going smoothly on Tokugawa Yukimura's side, the Iron Country Village was not so peaceful. After the last purge, no matter which force chose to take over the minions. It was especially uncomfortable for Finance Minister Hirano.

"How are things going lately?" Over the past few months, Hirano has lost a lot of weight. In order to prevent others from finding out the clues, he paid a heavy price.

The attendants below came forward and reported: "The situation is not good. The Anbu and the security team seem to have noticed something, including people watching around the mansion. Also, they seem to have doubts about our transactions with other countries."

"Having surveillance can only mean that there is suspicion. As for the transactions, let them check it. Such huge data will take them several months to read, not to mention that our account books are handled perfectly." Hirano was a little absent-minded. Said happily.

The attendant was a little uneasy, hoping it was all an illusion.

Hirano suddenly asked: "What is that brat Tokugawa Yukimura doing recently?"

The attendant didn't know why Hirano asked this, and was a little afraid that the Patriarch would retaliate again, but he could only answer honestly: "We have suffered a serious loss of information sources, and we only know that he has been more diligent in heading towards the mining town recently. .”

Hirano seemed to see his worry, and said, "Don't worry, I haven't lost my mind to take revenge on him right away. Let him be proud for a while."

After the attendants left, Hirano sat alone in the empty room, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

After the last time, several elders in the family who knew about the situation were frightened out of their courage and persuaded him to lead the family to leave the Kingdom of Iron on the grounds of trade. But judging from the current situation, Mifune has begun to doubt him, and they can't go anywhere in the current situation.

What he said just now was just to comfort his subordinates. He understood that Mifune would find the evidence sooner or later, and it would be the end at that time.

"I still have time." Hirano also knew that it would take at least a few months for Mifune to find problems in trade, "Mifune, Tokugawa Yukimura, Sakamoto Satoka, and those few families."

Thinking of his opponents, Hirano suddenly laughed out loud, "Even if Hirano is going to end, I won't be so unknown. At least, there will be a grand fireworks to set it off."
