"Nephew, it's been more than half a month.”
"Not to mention silver, I haven't even seen the shadow of silver.”
Zhu Di was filled with resentment.
He had thought that it was a big business to make money, but he did not expect that he would be doing hard labor with the Mountain Bandits for more than half a month here!
He was the dignified Prince of Yan. How could he tolerate such a thing?
"Fourth Uncle, don't underestimate this thing.”
Zhu Yunhao pointed at the blast furnace that was finally completed."It won't be long before we can start work. At that time, we'll definitely make a lot of money every day.”
He looked at the 30-meter-tall creature in front of him.
Zhu Di frowned.”
"Iron smelting."
" With this thing, we can produce at least two thousand catties of iron liquid of extremely high purity every day," Zhu Yunhao replied.”
"So the big business you mentioned is iron-smelting?”
Zhu Di was stunned.
He looked around at the blast furnace that took more than half a month to build.
Although it could produce more than 2,000 catties per day, it was very powerful.
However, iron was an important weapon of the country. The imperial court had strict control over it. How could it be sold after being refined?
"This is the starting point of the industry. When the snowball develops, wouldn't it be easy to earn millions of taels of silver?。”
"However, it's just the beginning.”
Zhu Yunhao touched his chin." Isn't Northern Yuan in dire straits during the war?" We'll sell them to Northern Yuan first.”
pfff ~
Zhu Di, who was about to drink water, almost spat it out.
" Sell, sell to Northern Yuan?"
"Nephew, are you crazy?”
This was treason!
You can sell it to the iron shop illegally, but if you sell it to Northern Yuan and expose it, you will definitely be cursed by the world.
"Fourth Uncle, what are you thinking?"
Zhu Yunhao chuckled." We can control the amount of iron and carbon. We can make a hard and brittle iron block. When the Northern Yuan craftsmen use this to make weapons, it will definitely break with a touch."”
Zhu Biao's eyes lit up.”
Even the blacksmiths of the Ming Dynasty only had a shallow understanding of real iron blocks.
Most of them relied on experience to forge.
Of course, he didn't know that if the ratio of iron and carbon was controlled, it would correspond to all kinds of ironware.
"Of course,"
Zhu Yunhao nodded." Let's make a batch of high-carbon iron blocks. The weapons made of this iron are very sharp. They can easily cut through wood, but using them in battle is definitely courting death."”
He looked at the iron ores that the bandits had dug up.
He only needed to put the iron ore into the blast furnace to refine high-purity molten iron.
Then, he added the coke according to the ratio.
It was easy to make high-carbon iron.
After absorbing the Advanced Ironmaking Technique, Zhu Yunhao was able to use this method at will.
As for whether the blacksmiths in Northern Yuan would melt the iron again?
It didn't matter if it melted again.
In this era, no one else had the technology to purify iron.
"Then what do we do next?"”
"Respond to the heavens!"
It was impossible for him to stay here for half a year. If Imperial Grandfather knew that he had been missing for half a year, he would probably turn the entire country upside down to search for him.
Next, this place was handed over to Qi Jiguang to guard.
It was time to go back after being out for so long.
If the old man found out that they had sneaked out, Fourth Uncle would probably be finished.
......
......
He looked at the report from the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was extremely ugly.
"Trash! You're all trash!"
"It's been so many days, and you can't even find two people?!”
It had been three days since the disappearance of the fourth brother and Yunchen.
These few days, Zhu Yuanzhang did not think of eating or drinking.
Not only was the fourth son mischievous, but he also brought Yunchen's grandson out.
This made Old Zhu a little unable to tolerate it.
After learning about Zhu Yunwen's brainless actions in the future from the answer space, he had already sent this kid into the cold palace.
At this time, his other grandson suddenly rose up and became outstanding.
The scales in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart had long tilted towards Zhu Yunhao.
But at this time, Fourth Brother actually brought him out of Ying Tian secretly?
What if something happened to his grandson?
Old Zhu was very angry!
"Your Majesty, there's a new discovery."
"A tunnel was found in a house in the south of the city, leading to the outskirts of the city."”
"What?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's tiger eyes widened.”
The Embroidered Uniform Guards led the way.
Zhu Yuanzhang soon arrived.
The tunnel that Zhu Di and Zhu Yun had dug.
This wasn't an abandoned house. It was inhabited.
However, they were not Zhu Di's people, but ordinary people.
Zhu Di would sneak in secretly every time and then enter the tunnel just in case.
"This Fourth Brother is really good at playing tricks.”
Looking at the tunnel, Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly.
The tunnel was hidden under the stove.
It was pitch black.
If it wasn't for the fact that his group of Embroidered Uniform Guards had strong investigative abilities, how could they have found it?
And this family saw so many Embroidered Uniform Guards rushing into the house.
They were also trembling in fear.
Did he do something wrong?
"Everyone, don't be nervous."
Looking at the commoners, Zhu Yuanzhang put away his anger and smiled."I know that this tunnel has nothing to do with you, but I'll take over your house for a period of time. You can stay in the inn for the time being…"
He hadn't finished speaking.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from the tunnel under the stove.
Everyone's eyes were looking at the tunnel entrance.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.
A guy with a dusty face came out.
"Pui, pui, pui, I choked to death."
"If I had known, I wouldn't have sold this house as a cover back then.”
The dusty figure was full of disdain. Wasn't it Zhu Di?
When he finally reacted.
He looked at the Embroidered Uniform Guards and the old man who were staring at him.
His body stiffened and he almost fell back.
"Father, why are you here?"
Zhu Di wanted to cry.
He could even be caught red-handed for digging a tunnel.
What kind of luck was this?
