Chapter 813

In this official workshop operated by the imperial court for many years, the inheritance of craftsmen is handed down from generation to generation.

The father passes on the son, the son passes on the grandson. Even the craftsmen belonging to the imperial court will leave a hand for their own people in the proportion and process of craft forging.

Skilled craftsmen recruited from all over Chang'an can enrich talents for the imperial court.

But in the same way, let each family press their own things at the bottom of the box... To show them more tightly.

Now an innovative talent like Gu Zheng has suddenly appeared, who can create two more advanced forging processes in such a short time.

Let those craftsmen who have no ability to press the bottom of the box see hope.

Because of continuous innovation, we will not pay so much attention to the confidentiality of secret technology.

Besides, the craftsman who is about to become the master forging is still so young. In the eyes of these old craftsmen, isn't there infinite possibilities?

People keep inventing better, but the market is so big that there are always some places where some people can't use such good materials to make less important things.

At that time, they will master some forging techniques. Even if they learn the old skills eliminated by Gu Zheng, they will have a meal with what they have learned when they are old and weak and are sent to the place.

After understanding the purpose of these people, Gu Zheng had nothing to worry about.

He thought his family was worried by thieves.

It's also good. The fear of starting from scratch that he was not familiar with his life is gone. With the help of these "disciples" who sincerely take care of him, his future life... Is almost the same.

Gu Zheng, who felt comfortable, answered happily: "well, it doesn't matter how many people. As long as you can say the arrangements in our workshop and several people follow me, I don't care."

Look, this is a super confident performance of your skills.

But the more Gu Zheng said so, the more respectful those people looked.

It's a rare thing to learn from a capable master. Even if people casually dew out from their fingers, it's enough for them to pass on their children and grandchildren. From today on, they can be regarded as people of factional inheritance.

The meeting ended successfully in the joy of everyone.

With the concerted efforts of these neighbors, Gu Zheng not only lived in a shiny room, ate a warm meal, but also had a rare night's sleep.

On that night, a brand-new steel casting technique reappeared in his dream. While watching, he recorded the relevant technical points and tool data.

When he came to the official workshop the next day, Gu Zheng was still tired in his body, but his spirit had been excited to a node.

The cells all over him seemed to keep shouting, hurry up, hurry up to test, whether the process played back in his mind could succeed.

In the dream of gradual progress yesterday, the technical process taught was called steel pouring method.

This skill that really flourished a hundred years later is one of the necessary materials for the famous military Sabre Su iron Sabre of later generations.

If this skill can be restored, the material of military weapons in the Han Dynasty will have a qualitative leap.

At the blade of the original weapon, only a layer of permanent iron technology needs to be poured, and all the weapons will be invincible immediately like changing guns and birds.

How can this not make Gu Zheng excited.

With the advent of steel pouring method, the dream of casting a famous knife is about to come true!

Impatient Gu Zheng, that means doing it.

He got up early in the morning and went to the front clerical Yamen to register when black smoke just came out of the chimney of the workshop furnace.

With a surprised look on his face, the knife and pencil official grabbed the number plate representing the master forging identity in the other party's hand and went straight to the big field of the forging workshop.

……

In the official blacksmith workshop of the Han Dynasty, the internal structure is progressive layer by layer.

The entrance is also the nearest part near the auxiliary material transportation warehouse, which is where the smelting furnace is located.

In a day, the second big section of the workshop comes along with the flow of soft or hard mineral water melted in huge furnaces.

The area here is larger than that of the first part, but the structure is a long and narrow strip structure.

According to the layers of forging integration, casting and grinding, when walking through the middle aisle, you can clearly see the position of each part. If there is a problem in any link, it is a matter of checking.

It is a rare efficient and useful design for large batch production of official workshops.

After walking through the forging workshop, the pattern changed suddenly. It was no longer an open and closed semi open architectural space. On the contrary, it had to pass through a dark corridor and come to a shaped lobby before it reached the end of the airtight.

Finally, the last step of weapon melting, casting, cooling, solidification and cutting edge grinding is carried out here.

After all the processes are completed, the weapons are sealed in special boxes, pasted with the corresponding labels of the weapons workshop of the government office, and transported from the reserve warehouse box by box by the people of the superior department in the affiliated Yamen.

This weapon, which came out after a long turn, will be seen in the hands of the soldiers and play their ultimate role.

……

As for the place Gu Zheng is going to now, it is the second largest section in the workshop, and it is also the part of smelting and reconciliation with the most complete process flow and the most clear segmentation.

There, he was the first craftsman to step in today. When he came to the most advanced workshop at that time, he just made a rough tour and found out the equipment, facilities and tools in the operation room.

Gu Zheng, who has a foundation in his heart, doesn't stop his men.

He took off his robe, hung up his apron, untied the heavy toolbox behind him, picked up the used hammer, pulled out the valve at the plug of the iron outlet, and the molten iron in the corresponding white high-temperature furnace flowed into the workbench in front of him along a long channel.

"No, not alone."

When Gu Zheng got started, he found that the process of steel pouring taught by the vague figure who taught skills in his sleep could not be completed by one person and two hands alone.

Even if the corresponding materials do not need to be refined by turning on the furnace.

However, in the art of pouring steel, the process of mixing pig iron and wrought iron cannot be completed by one person alone.

"If only there were an apprentice in this workshop, Zhao DA in my family is a rare good helper."

Gu Zheng was staring at the red iron spindle in front of him and talking to himself. Suddenly, an old face full of wrinkles appeared in front of him.

"Gu Zheng? What trouble are you in? I need help. I'll come. I'm also a rare good helper!"

Seeing a man quietly emerging from the empty field, Gu Zheng almost took off his hammer.

But Gu Zheng really couldn't get angry. As a newcomer, he started smelting without permission, which was against the rules.

Look at the old man's gray beard, withered trunk and the same shape of bare arms. Gu Zheng's heart breathed a sigh.

I'm afraid he's another unhappy old craftsman, so it should be no problem for him to help.

Thinking of Gu Zheng here, he smiled shyly and said politely to the old man, "OK, this teacher has helped me a lot."

"I'm trying a new skill here. It needs the cooperation of many people."

"Do you see the drainage trough over there? I need the liquid material from the pig iron mouth in the orange flame furnace to be mixed with the materials produced by my high-temperature furnace."

"Then they are heated above the melting point of pig iron and combined to form steel."

"We may have to experiment several times, because the molding process of this technology may not be limited to one."

"Different operation methods, the final formed works and uses are also different."

"I just don't know if the old master's physical strength can keep up with the rhythm of my operation."

"After all, you old man..." Gu Zheng stopped talking here, but his eyes were always on the old man's thin body and the empty vest hanging on him.

The meaning is self-evident. Your old physique may not be good.
