Chapter 57 Percussion

"Reported to the Empress Dowager, the new system is under the jurisdiction of the Lingyin Mansion, and the sanitation system is not allowed to leave the road and come to the court. Please ask the Empress Dowager to return to the palace." Cheng Jie was very unhappy at this time. He was angry at the provocation of the court officials, and even more displeased with Concubine Zhao's public offense.

"Irregular!" Meng Zhao was also very angry, "Where is the king's land under the sky, and the shores of the earth, and the king's ministers. How dare you..."

"Far!" Cheng Jie cried out, "The State of Chu does not practice Zhou rituals, so don't use the principles of Zhou people to make sense. If the sanitation environment does not retreat, kill them on the spot!"

Cheng Jie shouted loudly, and ordered soldiers from Yin's mansion to flock out, and the spear aimed at the "invading" sanitation. Concubine Zhao's anger ignited again. When she was about to scold her, the sanitation soldiers bowed and said, "Please ask the Queen Mother to return to the palace. Outside the gate, they are no longer under the jurisdiction of the ministers."

"Wait?" The soldiers of Lingyin's mansion were trying to attack, and they had known that there was no one in the sanitation regulations on this provision. Seeing this, Concubine Zhao had to leave. Meng Zhengqin and others wanted to stop him but were stopped by the sanitation. At this time, Cheng Jie shouted again: "If you don't retreat, you will be killed!"

The Empress Dowager's sanitation had already retreated. Meng Zhao and others, who knew that the situation was over, also wanted to retreat. Kong Qi, who was unwilling to give up, came forward and bowed, "Do you dare to ask why Lingyin killed people?"

"Why kill someone?" Cheng Jie smiled. "The State of Chu no longer needs county officials, and it is also necessary to prohibit traitors. If you don't kill them, what's the use of keeping them?"

"No county officials are needed, how can the ruling ruling govern the country?" Kong Feng asked again.

"Of course, it is a clan, and it is a wise man who is a country. We all have retainers, so what is the use of a county official?" Cheng Jie replied again. He looked at the scholars behind everyone and smiled contemptuously, "You may not be able to teach even if you succeed."

"What does the Lingyin mean?" Kong Jing wanted to ask, "Where does this place the king?" But the scholar was related to the politics of culture and education, so he had to ask.

"I just told them that if the clan's honor is not allowed, they will not be able to return to their hometown to be gentlemen even if they have accomplished their careers."

"Ling Yin Dami, we are only ordered by the king to do the king's rule." Several scholars standing in the front row reprimanded and looked excited when they heard this.

"Haha..." Cheng Jie hated the most people who were foxes and tigers. These scholars could not fight and had no blood. He had always looked down upon them. "The Chu State implemented a contracting system, and the king's orders were no longer out of Yingdu. Only the orders of the imperial court could be carried out in Chu State. If the county and town clans, the honorary scholars did not want you to wait, they would not want you to wait. Since you only received the orders from the king, you will live in Yingdu in the future. I will never interfere."

As the principal of a teacher school, his student could not teach after graduation. Kong Feng was so angry that his face turned blue. He said angrily: "The King's New Policy..."

"The new policy of the king is naturally implemented," Cheng Jie was very happy to see Kong Feng's expression, "However, how to implement it is nothing to do with them. This Yin is the Yin of Xi County. Xi County will elect a scholar to go to Yingdu to study."

"I will not accept the wine!" After finally cultivating this group of students, Kong Feng must not let them live a lifetime in Yingdu.

"Sacrifice?" Cheng Jie remembered something that had not been announced yet. "The Lingyin Mansion will build another national normal school next month. If scholars do not have the election of honorary clans, they will not be allowed to enroll; if the clans are not allowed to be approved by the clans, they will not be allowed to teach in their jurisdiction."

"You are without a king and father, this is a beast!" Meng Zhao and others also understood Cheng Jie's meaning, and were angry.

"How dare you insult Ben Yin?!" Cheng Jie yelled at the sword and pointed at Meng Zhao angrily and shouted: "Draw the sword!"

"You!" The gentleman didn't speak, but unexpectedly, Cheng Jie drew his sword when he had a disagreement.

"Draw the sword! Draw the sword!!" The soldiers behind Cheng Jie not only retreated and gave up the place of fighting, but also kept shouting.

"Is Ling Yin going to kill someone?" Meng Zhao did not dare to draw his sword. Meng Zhengqin saw Cheng Jie's murderous intent and had to come over.

"Those who insult me ​​will be killed!" Cheng Jie ignored him and stepped forward with his sword. Meng Zhao's face turned pale and retreated to the scholars, who were protected by them.

"Bah! Husband! Don't let me see you again. Goodbye, I will kill you!" Cheng Jie spat at him and cursed. After scolding, he saw that everyone had not left yet, he shouted again: "I haven't withdrawn from my residence yet!"

"If you don't retreat, you won't kill me!" Cheng Jie drank. The soldiers behind him not only drank, but also raised their spears to move forward. They kept driving everyone to the palace road before turning back.

"Barriage, this is a barbarian!" Meng Zhao returned to normal at this time, but his neck was so angry that he turned red.

"This matter can only be discussed by the king." Meng Zhengqin was much more sober than Meng Zhao and others. Cheng Jie had already made it clear that the king's orders were not out of Yingdu, and the clans and the sages were under the jurisdiction of the state of Chu, which means that there were no officials under the central government, only clans and retainers of the sages. Because of this, the defeats of the county and the sages of each county either surrendered to the clans and sages of the county, or like those of the sages of the divisions who were not elected or approved by the sages of the divisions of the divisions, they lived in Yingdu in this life.

"Oh!" Kong Feng couldn't help but breathe too much. He wanted to use the king's order to spread the word of culture and education in Chu State. Who could do that? "The way would not work, so I would float on a raft in the sea." He bowed farewell to Meng Zhengqin and others, and staggered towards the thatched gate.

When the palace ruled the Yin Mansion dispersed, the Zaofu shed in the north of the city was still hot. The three charcoal iron blast furnaces at the corner of the shed kept rising, twisting the air inside and outside the shed. Unlike the large-scale converter that exploded in Xianyang Shaofu, Zaofu made the converter smaller on the basis of the original converter. One furnace was less than two thousand kilograms, about four hundred kilograms.

The density of iron is 7.8 times that of water. One ton is 0.12 cubic meters, and more than 400 kilograms are only 0.06 cubic meters. If it is a cube, the side length is only 0.4 meters, and the volume of the entire converter is less than one cubic meter. Making it so small is not only to reduce the cost of converter trials, but also to eliminate the cause of accidents.

The converter steelmaking requires more than one cubic meter of air per second. If the wind pressure of manpower is not enough, the molten iron will react unevenly. If the reaction is uneven, there will be an accident. Zaofu had an accident before, but it was different from the earth-shaking fried furnace in the Shaofu of Qin. The accident was like pouring water into boiling oil. When the furnace was shaken, the steel splashed out everywhere. After that, the converter became smaller.

"Out of the oven!" The worker judged that the iron smelting furnace was about to be released, and immediately shouted that it was ready to be released.

The iron smelting furnace never stops, but each batch of iron ore will only be tried two to three times, and then a batch of iron ore will be replaced. In order to prevent the various batches of iron ore from being mixed, each batch of ore will be smelted ten furnaces, but only the last two and three furnaces of iron and water are used to try. After the Zhu shouted out, the craftsman began to yell the gong, and the craftsman inside and outside the shed was immediately busy. Under the movement of some Lifu, the furnace mouth was aimed at the cooked iron pipe and prepared to receive the iron.

"Out of the oven!" When the worker shouted for the second time, the doors of the three iron smelting furnaces opened at the same time. The temperature of the shed suddenly rose. After the slag was peeled off, the hot iron flowed out and flowed to the converter not far away.

At this time, Lifu outside the shed was ready. When the flag was waved in the shed, the people rushed to the skin, and the air rushed out of the bottom of the furnace. The converter trembled, and the smoke and dust sparks were sprayed out from the mouth of the furnace again, dragging the entire shed into hell.

After more than two years of trial, people are accustomed to the current scene, and control the temperature is like a cook who can cut a cow, so they can easily. Seeing that the fire at the furnace entrance gradually becomes smaller and the flame tongue becomes shorter, the sound of the gongs in the shed immediately stops. The sound of the gongs outside the shed is gone, and the blowing wind stops. As soon as the blowing wind stops, the boiling water in the furnace gradually returns to calm.

"Sink slag!" The density of the slag is only as high as the density of water. You need to pour the slag before pouring out the slag. Under the command of the worker, the iron chain at the bottom of the converter slowly tightened, and the furnace body tilted little by little. Once the angle reached, the dark red slag flowed out. The huge water was below the slag, and the color of the huge water was bright. The worker with ink-coated glass glasses saw that the dark red slag was flowing, and immediately ordered the converter to turn the furnace mouth in one direction and continue to tilt it out.

This operation has been more than 200 times in two years. The bright white water poured out and cooled along the graphite fire-proof bricks. The molten steel has extremely poor fluidity and is difficult to cast, but it is not difficult to pour it into pieces of steel ingots that are easy to transport. After the molten steel is poured, no new materials are added to the furnace body, and the trial is over. The rest is to wait for the ingot to cool to a certain temperature and use a giant hammer to see if it is hot and brittle; when it is completely cooled, then use a giant hammer to see if it is cold and brittle.

"Workers please use tea." The natural cooling time was not short. The worker walked out of the shed, and the apprentices presented tea and towels. After the reform of the mansion, the worker also drank tea, and his treatment status was long ago different.

"Have you heard that my Master Chu is better than Master Qin?" There were other workers resting under the shade of the tree outside the shed. The news of victory was so fast that I just left Chengjie's mouth at noon, and the Zao Mansion a few kilometers away knew about it.

"Qin Master? Humph." A worker named Fei shook his head repeatedly, "Qin is a country of tigers and wolfs. How could there be a tigers and wolfs? There are more people and fewer people, so who can't win?"

"How is Master Hui? Is the great iron today?" Several craftsmen saw Master Hui coming to enjoy the cool air, and stopped talking and bowed to him.

"Hehe." Huang just smiled and replied with a gift, and did not speak, so he started drinking tea after the meal.

"It's not going to be done." The door turned around and smiled. He had never entered the Trial Shed before, but the entire Zao Mansion knew what was doing inside.

"It has been nearly three years since the King started practicing greatness." Another craftsman sighed.

"So what about three years? There will always be a great success. But I heard that Qin is also trying..." Another worker said, and at this time, the apprentice of the worker Huang ran out of the shed and ran past everyone like the wind. He attached himself to the worker Huang's ear and said a few words, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"Take it seriously?" The worker ignored the tea on the ground and only looked at his apprentice.

"Please go into the shed to see." The apprentice's face was anxious and joyful.
