When Yuan Chen watched Xiong Yan's live broadcast and learned about the existence of the Special Affairs Research Institute, he made a call without hesitation and took a special car to Yangcheng.
And his talent is also related to materials. By touching the material, he can know the specific composition of the material, the proportion of certain atoms, the proportion of certain molecules, the proportion of certain compounds...
Now, he has become the general manager of the iron factory. In addition to his daily work, he is also responsible for the research of special metals: black iron, fine gold, Geng gold, mithril...
As for his deputy, he was Cui Yan. Shortly after Sun Qian left the town, Cui Yan also left the center and began to go out.
Blah blah blah
Just like running water, a large amount of burned molten iron is poured into the grinding tools that have been prepared. When the cooling is complete, the grinding tools are disassembled, and a cast iron farm tool is produced.
No matter how many times he sees this assembly line in front of him, Cui Yan will be addicted to it. He was addicted when he saw it for the first time. He always comes to see it several times a day, and he can't sleep without taking a few glances.
After seeing it for the first time, Cui Yan knew that times had changed!
In the face of such power, what does the Yellow Turban Army mean? What does a powerful family mean? What does the Han Dynasty mean?
"The workers are already familiar with their work, and the efficiency is normal. Even if it improves, it will not increase as much as in the past. Taking yesterday's latest data as an average, the daily steel production is 20 tons, which is only 20 tons per month. Only six hundred tons."
The output of 600 tons per month is 7,200 tons per year, which does not sound like much at all. In modern society, even if you find a few small steelmaking plants with full power, it will be more than this.
But in today's Beihai County, it is an astronomical figure that is unimaginable to the local aborigines.
Just like this moment, Cui Yan said very happily and proudly: "Your Highness, the steel produced in the steel factory is all real steel. If such good steel is put aside, even according to the Daxia standard announced by Your Highness, one pound (five pounds) One hundred grams) also costs two thousand dollars."
"Twenty tons is 40,000 catties, which is 80 million yuan. Eighty million yuan a day, close to 30 billion yuan a year. The annual income of the Han Dynasty in the past year may not have been this amount!"
For Cui Yan, this steelmaking plant with an annual output of 7,200 tons of steel directly subverted his outlook on life.
As far as he knew, in addition to this steelmaking plant, there are at least twenty-five similar factories under Daxia's rule in Beihai County. Together, wouldn't these factories be able to earn hundreds of billions a year?
What's more, food and iron are the foundation of hegemony!
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Ji Gui. This is the latest political commentary I brought from Xiacheng. It contains many interesting ideas..."
"Oh, then Yan needs to take a closer look." With that said, Cui Yan took the book and left directly.
After Cui Yan left, Yuan Chen said, "There's nothing wrong with Cui Yan. He usually does a pretty good job, so I don't have to worry about anything."
With that said, Yuan Chen led Xiong Yan and Chu Xuan to a secret room. There was a group of fully armed soldiers at the door. After opening the lock, there were large boxes one after another.
"These boxes are filled with black iron, which is made by adding a little spiritual energy to low carbon steel. The spiritual energy and iron atoms are combined, causing the iron atoms to enter a very special state."
Speaking of this, Yuan Chen frowned. He found that his words were very pale. Although he knew in his heart what the state of this special iron atom was, he couldn't say the words.
This is very urgent!
Seeing this, Xiong Yan patted him, and a ray of spiritual power directly contacted his consciousness, and began to initiate the heart with his heart.
A second later, Xiong Yan withdrew his right hand, glanced at Chu Xuan, and conveyed the special state of the iron atom in Yuan Chen's heart.
"Yes, you have seen it. It is very special. I can't describe it. It is precisely because of the changes in the internal structure that Xuantie has miraculous effects when it spreads the power of qi and blood."
"These black irons were researched by me based on the magic weapons and armor I collected. The output is relatively small and cannot be mass-produced. Even I can only produce them in large quantities when I activate my talent. Now it only weighs more than 8,000 kilograms.
, everything I produced this month is here."
To be honest, Yuan Chen himself is very dissatisfied with this output.
However, if his psychological activities were spread, he would definitely be scolded by the blacksmiths of the Han Dynasty. When did Xuan Tie start to be measured by kilograms? Aren't they all measured by money (a unit of weight)?
When everyone makes weapons, adding a few or dozens of dollars of black iron can give the weapon a certain degree of extraordinary properties.
Weapons made entirely of black iron can be called magic weapons, and they are kept tightly by aristocratic families and passed down from generation to generation as family heirlooms.
Even many county guards and family heads may not have a certain set of rules.
That is to say, Kong Rong was wealthy and wanted to conquer Tai Shici, so he directly presented him with magic weapons and precious armor.
Yuan Chen rummaged through and found a small box with several locks on it: "Although the box is small, it is not light in weight. It contains fine gold. The density of gold is very high. Every inch of gold weighs a lot!"
"The density of fine gold is much greater than gold. Just half a foot square weighs fifty kilograms. I can only make it occasionally."
"These fine golds are actually pure gold plus aura. The purer the gold, the higher the quality of the refined gold. However, limited by the productivity of the current era, the production of the highest quality fine gold is very small."
Only Taoists and great Confucians can create gold with higher purity by personally using their spiritual power to smelt it using special secret methods.
"Fine gold can be used to forge magic weapons and has the property of transmitting spiritual power. It is most popular among great Confucianists and Taoists and is the hard currency in the spiritual world."
In the outside world, fine gold is sold on the basis of two parties.
As a great virtuous teacher, Zhang Jiao had the support of the entire Taiping Dao, and it was the key part of the nine-section staff that he carried with him, so he was willing to use fine gold.
After introducing the fine gold, Yuan Chen looked around to make sure there were no outsiders, then carefully took out a wooden box from the storage belt around his waist. After opening the wooden box, there was another wooden box.
Finally, Yuan Chen carefully took out a piece of beautiful jade.
"This is a flawless piece of beautiful jade, a genuine Hetian jade. Beautiful jade can react with spiritual energy in this world, and then a kind of psychic jade will be produced."
Psychic gem has many uses.
Many times, psychic gems can save lives!
Many times, the owner encounters a fatal threat, and then finds that the jade he has carried with him for decades is broken!
"This psychic gem can be used directly as a spiritual stone. Grinding it into powder and swallowing it is roughly equivalent to taking a hundred grams of spiritual energy crystals. My current level of cultivation is all due to taking this psychic stone.
Lingbaoyu."
Yuan Chen was still talking about the functions of psychic gems, but Xiong Yan and Chu Xuan looked at each other: Is this a fucking artificial spiritual stone?
