Chapter 784

After seeing that Yan Liqiang easily solved the problem of casting sand holes, Luo Yutian was more interested. He took Yan Liqiang to the craftsman's city and visited the iron smelting workshop, sword workshop, armor workshop and arrow workshop in the craftsman's city.

It has to be said that the scale of these workshops is indeed the largest seen by Yan Liqiang. The management of these workshops is commendable and efficient in the one-man craftsman and machine camp of the Han Empire.

After visiting the ordinary workshops, Luo Yutian even took Yan Liqiang to several places in the craftsman city with a high level of confidentiality. There were sergeants on guard outside, and they could enter only after careful inspection of the people who came and went, but they were produced in several places, They are all sharp weapons prepared by Luo Yutian for the Heishan army that have never been shown in front of the world - several heavy military furies that can be towed with the car, new half body armor made by hydraulic press, and even new catapults that can hit things twice as far as traditional catapults

There are countless skilled craftsmen in the craftsman city. Naturally, these things are also the efforts of those craftsmen in the craftsman city.

Luo Yutian originally wanted to show these things like Yan Liqiang to show the strength of the Luo family and fight for face between the Luo family and the craftsman city. After all, Yan Liqiang's ability in the water lighter manufacturing workshop today makes everyone recognize his identity as a master of craftsmanship. This psychology is like those antique collection lovers when they see the masters of antique collection as guests, They will take out their treasures and give them to the masters for evaluation. They can get affirmation and praise from these masters. For these antique collection lovers, they will have a special sense of satisfaction and achievement.

Lord Xin longed to see the look of amazement and shock on Yan Liqiang's face, but what disappointed him was that from beginning to end, there was no more than half a silk of amazement on Yan Liqiang's face. The sharp weapons he thought didn't even make Yan Liqiang, a great craftsman, pay more attention to them. Yan Liqiang swept away from beginning to end, Just like looking at the cabbage sold on the street, his eyes are flat. Even in the face of others' introduction, he only shows a polite smile on his face. If he has to evaluate, what he says from Yan Li's strong mouth is just a simple "good!"“ Not bad! "“ Not bad! " I can't hear any excitement at all.

This frustrated Lord Xin Guogong. He didn't believe that Yan Liqiang had seen everything!

After the people had made a turn in the craftsman City, the sun was almost setting. Luo Yutian directly invited Yan Liqiang to have dinner in the back garden of Jinzhou governor's building Yamen in the craftsman city.

There were only Luo Yutian and Yan Liqiang on the table. Their entourage and subordinates ate in the courtyard.

After the meal was served, Duke Xin Guohe and Yan Liqiang ate and talked about what they saw in the craftsman city today. When they had talked about it, Duke Xin Guohe suddenly changed his painting style. "Today, you and Li Qiang went to the craftsman City, which really opened my eyes. Li Qiang, you are a famous craftsman. Iron heart has never convinced people, But Li Qiang, it's rare for you to convince him in a few words today! "

"By the way, brother Luo, I don't know where Lord Ou has gone. Why don't you see him for dinner?"

"Hahaha, he can't bear the casting skill you said. He must have gone to the workshop long ago. I've come to Jinzhou governor's building yamen more often than him!"

"Hahaha, brother Luo is lucky to have such a man!"

"Li Qiang, you're right. That's why I appreciate the iron core. The so-called man is not perfect. There may be some deficiencies in other parts of the iron core. He speaks and works straight, but he is especially attentive and conscientious to the things in the craftsman city!" Speaking of this, Luo Yutian said somewhat mysteriously, "I know that Li Qiang has a high vision. Today, those things may be commendable in the eyes of ordinary craftsmen, but in the eyes of Li Qiang, they are too ordinary. There was another thing I wanted to show Li Qiang today. Let Yan Liqiang guess what it's good for, but there were too many people just now. It's inconvenient to show it, So I didn't take it out. Now I'll let Li Qiang see. Can you guess where this land comes from? "

With that, Duke Xin clapped his hand. A confidant beside him directly came to them with a dish tray, and then stepped back.

The tray was also covered with a piece of red cloth. Duke Xin took the red cloth away and revealed a bowl below. At the moment, there was some dark brown unknown liquid in the bowl, which smelled pungent.

Xin Guogong looked at Yan Liqiang with a somewhat expectant and reserved look. Originally, Xin Guogong thought that Yan Liqiang would look puzzled when he saw this thing. He didn't know what it was. This would make him find a little face. But what disappointed Xin Guogong again was that when he saw that thing, Yan Liqiang's face was only slightly stunned, and then he looked at him with a smile, Looking at Yan Liqiang's eyes, he felt guilty all of a sudden.

"Well... Does Li Qiang know where this thing comes from?"

"It turned out that brother Luo hid the real good things in the craftsman city. I was surprised just now. There are so many craftsmen in the craftsman city. It would be inappropriate if he only made such a little thing as he saw today!" Yan Liqiang smiled and his eyes flashed with wisdom. "I'm afraid the workshop we went to see today is not the latest method that craftsman city and brother Luo can take out?"

This time, it was Luo Yutian's turn to be stunned. The reason why he took this thing out, and took it out in a bowl, was to see if Yan Liqiang could understand where it came from without giving Yan Liqiang any hint. Listening to Yan Liqiang, Yan Liqiang not only knew where it came from, Moreover, the function of another thing that he had not taken out with this thing was clear. God, when his craftsmen found and made these things, they found that these things could be used for smelting iron and steel after groping for some time“ Li Qiang, do you really know where this thing comes from? " Luo Yutian looked at Yan Liqiang in disbelief“ Jinzhou has a lot of coal. Before, no one thought that oil could be squeezed from coal! " Yan Liqiang winked at Luo Yutian. "This is tar. With tar, there is coke. Coke is very beneficial to iron smelting and steel making. Brother Luo should have tried it long ago, but he didn't take it out. I'm afraid he might be learned. I wanted to tell you when I went back today and let you try. I didn't expect someone under my brother had taken it out!" Luo Yutian was quiet for a few seconds, then sighed a long sigh and smiled bitterly at Yan Liqiang. "Tiangong master is worthy of being Tiangong master. I'm convinced. What else in the world do you not know about Li Qiang?"“ Ha ha, there are many things I don't know, but what I know is coincidence! " Yan Liqiang picked up the bowl of tar in front of him and took a deep breath of tar, "this is a baby..."... It was dark when they returned to the Luo family's mansion in Jinzhou City. After separating from Luo Yutian, Yan Liqiang directly returned to his Mingyue building. However, before Yan Liqiang had a rest, Luo steward hurried to the Mingyue building, "Lord Yan, please come to me!"! What's the matter? Just separated. Is Luo Yutian looking for himself again? Muttering in his heart, Yan Liqiang still came to Luo Yutian's study with manager Luo. Luo Yutian looked dignified and handed a piece of paper in his hand to Yan Liqiang. "I just received the news when I returned to the house. Li Qiang, look!" Yan Liqiang took the note, but his face changed slightly when he saw the content on the note. There was only one sentence on the note - change in the northwest, the army of black Capricorn people defeated seven sand dunes in Gulang grassland...
