Li Chengqian stretched out his head and glanced at the fire in the stove, and looked at the steward Mo Gonggong.
"Find someone to give it a try. Gu Ye is very curious. No matter how hard you push or pull, you can make wind."
The steward, Eunuch Mo, agreed and called a handyman in charge of the bellows.
The handyman was a little frightened by the formation staff, but he still sat there honestly.
Then I saw him holding the handle with both hands, pulling and pushing...
Everyone saw that a flame suddenly burst out from the stove hole that was already on fire.
Then, as the handyman stopped, the flames retracted into the stove eye like a shy little girl.
"..."
"Continue, you are not allowed to stop until I tell you." Li Shimin's voice sounded slightly changed.
When the servant heard this, he was so frightened that he gritted his teeth and pushed and pulled hard. Then, the two princes, two important ministers, and His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty came.
They all saw a raging flame jumping out of the stove's eyes, baring its teeth and claws.
Regardless of whether the handyman is pushing or pulling, the flame will only drop slightly when the handyman pauses, and will almost remain at the highest point when he is operating.
At this moment, everyone was staring straight at the rising flames, speechless for a long time.
Li Shimin stared blankly at the rising flames, feeling as if ten thousand horses were galloping back and forth in his heart.
This thing can actually blow wind. The important thing is that the wind blowing is not small. What is even more crazy is that this thing does not affect the blowing at all whether it is pushed or pulled.
"Zhao Kun!" Li Shimin suddenly shouted.
Zhao Kun, who was also dumbfounded by Gu Feng, felt a chill in his heart and replied loudly.
"I'm here!"
"Hurry up and summon Du Shaofu, the young master's supervisor, to come here and tell him to bring some of the young master's skilled craftsmen over. Go quickly."
Li Shimin's instructions also made Ma Zhou and Fang Xuanling wake up.
This bellows that can blow air regardless of push or pull is definitely a powerful tool for smelting.
Fang Xuanling saluted Li Shimin solemnly and had to admire him.
"Your Majesty is still wise. It's just as Your Majesty said. I really wouldn't know it unless I saw it. That boy Cheng Sanlang treats the treasure as an ordinary object again."
"I didn't expect it either..." Li Shimin himself shook his head helplessly.
"The main thing is this kid, you don't even know what kind of brain he has.
Either he is making trouble, or he is making good treasures."
As soon as these words came out, brothers Li Chengqian and Li Ke burst into laughter and quickly turned away. After all, it was unethical to laugh at Brother Chu Bi in public.
Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou couldn't help laughing.
Seeing that these noble people did not leave, Ning Zhong, who was knowledgeable and interested, had already ordered people to bring in the mats and tables, and also had refreshments brought.
These few people rested and drank tea here while waiting for the officials and craftsmen from the Shaofu Supervisor to arrive.
Fang Xuanling took a sip of tea soup and looked at the flames that were rising freely under the helper's continued pushing and pulling, and then she said with sincerity.
"Your Majesty is so far-sighted and far-sighted, I and others are far behind.
Now I finally understand the reason why Your Majesty supported Cheng Sanlang so strongly in establishing Cheng University."
Li Shimin shook his head angrily and sighed.
"I have no choice but to do so. After all, given that boy's virtue, I can't just throw him to the Imperial College..."
As soon as these words came out, a group of people couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.
"Father, would you like me to call Brother Chu Bi over?" Li Ke also grinned happily for a long time before he thought that the inventor of the bellows was still killing pigs there.
"Don't be busy now. Let's wait until the young master's supervisor arrives." Li Shimin shook his head and rejected Li Ke's proposal.
Mainly because before the professionals arrived, Li Shimin was not willing to let Cheng Chubi's serious nonsense in front of him mess up his mind.
Du Shaofu led several of the young master's supervisors and several of the best craftsmen from the right department, and hurried towards the East Palace.
Although I don’t quite understand why His Majesty asked me to bring a skilled craftsman with me when he called me here, after thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
That is to say, maybe His Majesty wants to make a precious sword for His Highness the Crown Prince, or maybe a pair of fine armor.
But after they entered the East Palace, they went straight to the smoky Dian Shan Kitchen, and they couldn't help but feel a little confused.
When Li Shimin saw Mr. Du arriving with five skilled craftsmen, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and pointed over there.
"We're finally here... Du Qing, come here quickly. I asked you to bring them here because I want you to take a good look at this thing..."
Following the direction pointed by Li Shimin's big hand, Du Shaofu and others saw a rather odd-shaped stove and a rectangular wooden box lying on a thick stone slab.
"Come here, add some new carbon to the stove, and then let the bellows move."
Following Li Shimin's instructions, the handyman from Dianshan Kitchen threw a few pieces of charcoal into the stove, and then started to turn on the bellows.
In just a few clicks, you can see conspicuous and eye-catching flames mixed with sparks from fire coals jumping out of the stove mouth.
"This, this...this is actually used for blasting?" Du Shaofu's eyes were as wide as bells at this moment.
An old craftsman with a white beard and white hair but a strong body put his hands behind his back and walked around the entire stove, his face full of disbelief.
"This is impossible. There must be a blowing machine, otherwise how could the wind be so continuous..."
"Your Majesty, can you allow the civilians to test their firepower?"
A craftsman came closer, stretched out his hand to feel the heat brought by the flames, and looked at Li Shimin expectantly.
Du Shaofu reminded this craftsman who seemed to want to come here to show off his superb blacksmithing skills with a dark look on his face.
"Old man Liu, don't be ridiculous. This is the East Palace Kitchen. It's the place where ingredients are cooked, not the young master's supervisor."
For a moment, the area around the stove was like a vegetable market, and the skilled craftsmen of the Shaofu Supervisor could hardly keep their composure.
Du Shaofu shook his head in disbelief.
"The blowing equipment used by Datang is made of leather and wood.
I have even seen the blowing equipment used by the steppe Turks. It is a big leather bag used to blow air to smelt metal, but the effect is very poor."
This is why the nomads on the grasslands need to trade with the Central Plains.
But the thing in front of me is basically a complete wooden box, except that the front part inserted into the stove is hammered out with a piece of iron.
I haven't seen any use of leather, well... that is, the handle. Only a bellows is needed to perfectly solve the big problem of preventing the wind from intermittent.
They have never seen such a good baby that can continuously blow air. The box is not big, but the wind force it emits is very powerful.
