The fire scythe was also accepted in a daze.
"Don't worry, Chen Jun. We won't let you down.”
Chen Wei nodded in satisfaction.
Who said that the ancients couldn't change their minds? Who said that the ancients were inflexible and didn't seek flexibility?
Although they couldn't understand the book, they could understand the effect of improved farming tools on the Chen Kingdom.
After all, the Spring and Autumn Era was an era of enlightenment.
These ancient people had yet to be 'poisoned' by the various schools of thought.
Chen Wei would teach them well. In order to let them adapt to the new Chen State in the future, they had to do a series of mental work first.
"The Smelting Division will continue to operate as usual and continue to recruit Chen Kingdom's coppersmiths to smelt iron for me!”
"Yes, sir!"
After giving his instructions, Chen Wei left the Smelting Division.
Although the first batch of iron ore was limited, it was enough for the Smelting Division to refine the first batch of new farming tools.
These new farming tools were not entirely made of refined iron.
Only the key parts or sharp parts needed refined iron, and the rest could be made of wood.
'I have to quickly put the search for natural iron ore on the agenda.'
In this era, iron mines were not valued by the various countries.
However, Chen Wei knew the importance of iron ore to a country.
With iron ore, the country could be considered to have a certain light industrial foundation.
The industrial base was a key factor that could determine whether a country was strong or not.
And now,
Soap was famous.
The soap locust company was the only one that had become an important source of income for the Chen Kingdom.
On one hand, he was raising the army at the border, while on the other hand, he was maintaining the smelting costs of the Smelting Division.
The pressure was still great, and it had never lessened.
Chen Wei sat in the carriage and frowned as he pondered.
He opened the system store.
Chen Wei already had a plan for the next step.
Chen Wei opened the mall and found two tech points hiding in the corner.
[Beginner cement mixing book: 100 contribution points]
It was made by mixing lime, volcanic ash, sand, stones and other raw materials.
Also,
[Beginner Glass Firing Book: 100 Merit Points]
It was made from various sand, plant ash, soda, and some mixed materials.
The cement and glass could be made from ancient natural materials.
The cost was low, and it had a wide range of uses.
A large amount of cement could be used for civil engineering, construction, basic facilities, and even national defense facilities.
With this thing, it could be used to replace wood, clay, and even stone bricks.
For example,
What did the ancients use to build wells?
The well was made of stone bricks, mature soil, and mortar. It was full of potholes and was very labor intensive.
What if there was cement?
Not only was the efficiency greatly increased, but it could also create a smoother, wider, and stronger well.
Putting everything else aside,
If Chen Wei could mass produce cement, he would use it all to build roads first.
With the cement floor, at least they wouldn't have to feel dizzy and sore when riding the carriage.
In this era, the carriage did not have a shock bumper, and the wheels were not covered with rubber. They were very hard.
Every time he sat in the carriage, Chen Wei's butt would hurt for a long time.
That would not do.
Glass was even more important.
With glass, Chen Wei could carry out chemical experiments.
In this era, many natural materials could be used in chemistry.
With chemistry, Chen Wei could make more things, such as:
One of the four great inventions, gunpowder…
Apart from that, glass could also be sold to other countries!
Probably no one would have thought that the glass that was difficult to buy with money could be made by the Chen Nation.
How much profit was there?
They mass-produced countless glass cups, glass windows, and glass bowls and sold them to rich countries.
Wouldn't that be a huge profit?
Don't say anything else, buy it!
After receiving the production book, Chen Wei flipped through it. The production process was still explained in great detail.
However, the most important thing was…
Who should be responsible for the production of cement and glass?
Back at the king's manor,
Chen Wei rubbed his butt as he was helped into the inner hall by the maids.
"Chen Jun, what…what's wrong?”
Seeing this, Yu Ji hurriedly walked up to him and asked worriedly.
"It's fine. I…I've arrived on a bumpy ride.”
Chen Wei looked embarrassed, but he kept cursing in his heart.
Alright, just you wait.
Sooner or later, I'll renovate all the roads in the capital! Renovate!
Seeing this, Yuji burst out laughing.
"Chen Jun, you've worked hard. I'll help you to bed and massage you.”Yu Ji said gently.
"Alright, alright."
Chen Wei naturally couldn't ask for more.
Hence, he did a butt massage with his wife.
"Yuji, I…I am troubled, can you help me?”Chen Wei said with a frown.
He already had someone in mind.
The development and production of cement and glass…
It had to be handed over to a trustworthy, smart, and capable person.
Other than Yuji, he couldn't think of anyone else.
Helplessly, the number of trusted aides around Chen Wei could be counted on one hand.
