The three of them always come out together and go back together to guard the convoy, because they are afraid that someone will think about it, because the "glass jewelry" appears on the market intermittently, which has attracted the attention of those who are interested.

Most merchants with some connections in Anlu know that the manager Liu of Xiyang County Duke Mansion has taken action from time to time, and most of the smart people who do business are suspicious of the "source of goods". Sooner or later, the manor outside the city will be targeted.

Now that the glass mirror worth thousands of tons is coming, some people will inevitably take risks. They will either intercept people while Liu Caiyun and others are traveling to and from the manor to the manor or rush into the manor at night to "seek treasures". So Yuwen Wen decided to change the manor to move all the original equipment and equipment to the manor in the city.

First, no one dared to attack Xiyang County Duke's Mansion for safety in the city, and second, to avoid these three technicians being caught in and out. Yuwen Wen needed a lot of money to support them. It is impossible to be surprised if the three of them were not.

As for the raw materials - Hesha, it continues to collect and load the barrels near the manor and transport them back to the city to the mansion before processing. In this way, even if someone rushes into the manor, he will not get anything valuable.

Mrs. Yuchi Chifan knew the details of the workshop and the severity of the matter. After all, glass technology can maintain high prices for non-diffusion glass products in one day, which is the biggest source of income for the family.

Now all the glass-related things in the manor are empty. Craftsmen on the side of the river are building a water truck and conducting land from time to time. This is the main driving force for Yuwen Wen to plan as the "machining" workshop. This time, he came here to see how the progress is.

There is a river on the west side of Anlu City called Shuishi (called Fuhe in Anlu section). In addition to some special years, the water flows continuously for many years. Therefore, Yuwen Wen built a water truck in the small manor to use the flowing water to power four types of machine tools: drilling machine, forging bed, lathe, and sawing machine.

This is also Yuwen Wen’s ambitious five-year plan: to manufacture ordnance through machine tools.

The near-term goal is that drilling machines are expected to be put into use after the year to make various metal pipes, forging beds, lathes and sawing machines as the next goal.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. He asked Lin Youdi to start making the "Elephant's Three-Year Improved Pneumatic Continuous Pearl Gun" after the New Year. The first problem he faced was the gun barrel.

The existing two continuous bead air guns are made of gun barrels with iron rolled by blacksmiths. If the inner wall is not flat and the inner diameter is not uniform, hydraulically driven to drill the solid iron rod from beginning to end, it can be made into a gun barrel with smooth inner wall with a uniform diameter. Only by relying on the drilling machine can qualified products be made in batches.

One advantage of this is that it can make long gun barrels. The manual long gun barrels must be welded together with two short pieces of shorts, which is worrying. With a hydraulic drilling machine, you can work day and night. As long as the water does not dry, it can continue to operate and save manpower.

At present, the sulfur and saltpeter of gunpowder are scarce. In order to avoid the spread of arms, the flintlock musket is not considered for the time being. Yuwen Wen decided to make a continuous pearl air gun first.

The current cost of Lianzhu Air Gun is hundreds of stagnant and it takes only manual production. Even if it is produced in small batches, it cannot be used or not. I have to find a way to "technical transformation" to reduce the cost.

Thinking about the personal soldiers behind me holding a pearl air gun and rushing to the enemy cavalry who sacrificed their lives to "behead" him. The scene of blood splashing everywhere on the horse is so beautiful that it makes people bubbling.

Next is the medium-term goal: boiler power.

Yuwen Wen knew that he did not expect to create a steamship to conquer the world. He wanted to make a useful small steam boiler as the power of the machine tool. The steam power is much stronger than the power of the water truck.

Even if you can create a small boiler, the failure rate will not be low. If the boiler on the boat breaks down, you can only use several sets of small boilers in the workshop.

With strong power and useful machine tools, the goal is to get rid of manpower as much as possible in all kinds of arms production links. For example, woodworking sawing machines can cut wooden boards efficiently, and the speed of making various wood products and naval warships can also be accelerated.

These cannot be achieved overnight. Yuwen Wen asked the butler Li Sanjiu to select a few reliable servants and Lin Youdi to set up a "machining department" to him personally, insisting on burning money and hoping to complete it within a few years.

When all kinds of workshops are settled in Xiyang County, they will have to "cheat" and upgrade their military equipment. If Anzhou and the court are in a stalemate and the situation does not progress, then train the navy.
