Chapter 175 Ministry of Industry
The next morning, Ren Baqian took the tokens to enter and exit the palace gate and pulled two guards, led a few Quniu and went out.
After all, no one would feel at ease if Ren Baqian had his strength when he went out, and even he was not at ease. The empress transferred two guards from the palace to him.
The strength of these two guards is much higher than the original vine gourd and iron sword. The vine gourd and iron sword have just entered the realm of Sifangtian, which is equivalent to the initial level of the human wheel. The lowest strength in the Da Yao army can reach this level.
The two guards transferred by the Empress to Ren Baqian were both the strength of entering the Creation Heaven, which was equivalent to entering the Earth Wheel, and its strength was even stronger than the warriors who had just entered the Earth Wheel of the Three Kingdoms.
Walking out of the palace, Ren Baqian spread his arms, and he hadn't come out for some days.
It’s better to feel outside, the palace is so quiet.
Riding on the back of the Quniu, he walked forward in the middle of the road, behind him was the guard who was also riding the Quniu, and he first went straight to the Works Department.
The road in Lancheng was also very wide, with mounts and frames passing through in the middle, and pedestrians on both sides. Seeing the three riders watching the cyclist, they were whispering.
"That's the husband chosen by His Majesty, right?"
"It seems that there are official uniforms, it must be him. There is no second in Lancheng."
"I don't know what his Majesty likes him."
However, one of the people in the crowd hurriedly left after seeing Ren Baqian, without attracting anyone's attention.
...
Such remarks even drifted into Ren Baqian's ears with the wind.
Even if the ancient tribe whispered, his voice was similar to that of ordinary people, which made him wonder if the ancient tribe had hearing problems?
Ren Baqian was too lazy to pay attention to such remarks. After a long time, he would probably reduce such remarks naturally.
There are many people coming in and out of the Ministry of Works, which is much more lively than the Honglusi. After all, the Ministry of Works is responsible for many things, and it is not comparable to the Qingshui yamen like the Honglusi.
Ren Baqian first reported his name and was entrusted in. However, Tong Zhenye was not there at this time. Ren Baqian waited for more than half an hour before waiting for him. He was wearing sunglasses and his nose was almost poking into the sky.
With his strong body, bald head and a beard braided on his chin, Ren Baqian felt that he was just one gold chain.
"Ren Fucheng, what is the matter that I have to do?" Tong Zhenye took Ren Baqian to a room and said bluntly.
"Master Copper, if you want to make glass, you must first make a blast furnace. Not only does the glass factory need to do it, but the Ministry of Industry also needs to smel metal. Using blast furnaces to smel, the speed can be several times faster than before, and it also requires less wood." Ren Baqian said while standing aside.
"Oh?" Tong Zhenye was slightly surprised. This Ren Fucheng really knows everything.
It would be a great thing if the iron ore smelting speed was several times faster and consumed less wood as he said.
"Please sit down, let me tell you in detail." Tong Zhenye's face showed a look of great interest.
"The first two materials are required to make blast furnaces, one is brick and the other is cement.
In addition to building blast furnaces, the former can also build houses and various buildings. In this way, there is no need to dig and polish the stone from a distance and transport it to you. The manpower and material resources saved are not a little bit.
Cement is more useful. In addition to the above, it can also quickly build cities, pave roads, etc.." Ren Baqian sat aside and continued.
Tong Zhenye's face turned much more serious when he heard this. If he followed Ren Baqian said, then these two things have great value and are of great use.
"What exactly are bricks and cement mentioned by Ren Fucheng?" Tong Zhenye asked.
Ren Baqian talked about the approximate use of bricks and cement to Tong Zhenye. Tong Zhenye pondered for a moment and asked: "If according to what Ren Fucheng said, the use of bricks and cement is really great. Is this also done in the palace?"
"This is to be handed over to the Ministry of Works. After all, these two items are beneficial to the entire construction of Dayao. It is better to arrange it by the Ministry of Works, which will be faster."
Tong Zhenye smiled after hearing this. He didn't want this thing to be guarded by the palace before. After all, according to the other party's words, it is not difficult to make these two items, and they can be used in all aspects.
"Then I'll thank you Ren Fucheng. If you need anything to do, Ren Fucheng just speaks." Tong Zhenye stroked his beard and said.
"The main one is limestone ore. As for clay, the river and the foot of the mountain can be found everywhere."
Ren Baqian roughly describes limestone. This kind of thing has a large reserve and should be easy to find.
"Ren Fucheng wait a moment." Tong Zhenye said and said, "Come Tieze and Tiequan for me."
He just shouted at him and went back to Ren Baqian, "These two guys ran around every day, maybe they would know."
In a few minutes, the two big men hurried into the house: "Sir, are you looking for us two?"
"Mr. Ren Fu has something to ask you, and answer honestly." Tong Zhenye said, stroking his beard.
"We haven't caused trouble these days?" the two of them said in confusion.
"Stop talking nonsense." Tong Zhenye cursed.
"Ren Fucheng, please ask."
"Have you two seen that kind of limestone or cloudstone? It's..." Ren Baqian described several types of limestones and the two of them.
"Is this thing not everywhere?" the two big men scratched their heads.
“Where is the nearest?”
"Walking in that direction for a long time, it was everywhere." One of them turned around and looked around. After a long time, he found the right direction and pointed.
There is the northeast direction of Lancheng.
"Master Tong, I'm afraid I'm going to borrow these two from you to use." Ren Baqian turned his head and bowed his hand.
"You two start to be sent by the Lord today. If you have any mistakes, wait and get rid of them." Tong Zhenye said to the two with wide eyes.
"Yes, sir." Both of them shrank their necks.
"I'll both of you take a trip and bring some for me to see. If it's what I want, I'm going to need to go a few more trips if not.
In addition, there are several other things, feldspar and dolomite, and if you know where to find them, you can arrange for someone to retrieve them together.
However, this limestone is an urgent task." Ren Baqian continued, and also talked about the characteristics of feldspar and dolomite.
"The dolomite has been out of the city for a long time, but it is not the same as before. As for feldstone, there may be several places, and I can't remember them." The two of them thought about it and said.
"Well, please look for it more. Also, have you seen a black stone that can burn?"
"I don't know this."
"Then please both of you bring some of the above items back first."
After the two left, Tong Zhenye said, "I know the black burning stone. Those people in the south often burn that one. At first, I was curious that the stone could be burned. Lord Ren, can you just use wood to burn it? There are all over the mountain."
