    Thinking that today¡¯s shotguns would explode from time to time, Fang Xing specially used a double-layer forging method to make the barrel.

    "Design a platform, and then make a long semicircular groove on the platform"

    Fang Xing took out a piece of white paper and started writing on it.

    ¡°The iron plate needs to be long so that it can be forged repeatedly to form a double-layer structure.¡±

    Of course, there is no comparison between a single-layer barrel and a double-layer barrel, but the processing volume is larger. However, Fang Xing believes that as long as the enthusiasm of the craftsmen can be stimulated, then these will not be a problem.

    "It's up to you to take action. If you need money, you'll have money, and if you need people, you'll have people."

    Fang Xing casually took out a steel rod, and Zhu Fang's eyes lit up when he saw it.

    Fang Xing smiled and said: "The diameter of this steel rod is just right to be used as the mandrel for rolling the gun barrel. I leave it to you now."

    "Good steel!"

    Zhu Fang just knocked it a few times and judged the quality of the steel rod from the sound.

    Fang Xing stood up and said to Zhu Zhanji: "I will solve the technical issues, but you can get the iron stuff."

    Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "No problem, you can get as much as you want."

    If Fang Xing can develop a powerful musket, then this achievement will be enough to raise the status of Dong Gong and his son in the military.

    At present, Donggong and his son only receive most of the support from the civil service system, but in the military, those nobles and the King of Han once fought side by side, and the friendship is not fake.  And in recent years, with the rebound of the civil service system, those nobles have found that they have a faint tendency to be suppressed.

    This trend was intolerable to the nobles, so they rebounded and succeeded.  Therefore, after Zhu Zhanji's untimely death, the Tumubao Incident occurred. A large number of nobles died for the country, and the responsibility for the defeat was also pushed to the nobles and Wang Zhen.

    At this point, the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty finally succeeded in counterattacking and pushed the nobles and military attach¨¦s into the corner. They never turned around again.

    Therefore, there is a saying in later generations that the Tumubao Incident was actually a carefully planned action by the civil service system of the Ming Dynasty. The purpose was to overthrow the noble system that was on an equal footing with them. For this reason, they did not hesitate to use up the last vitality of the Ming Dynasty.

    After finishing the business, Fang Xing looked at Zhu Zhanji¡¯s blistered eyes and said seriously: "You are young people must know restraint!"

    "ah!"

    Zhu Zhanji was thinking about how to tell his father about this matter. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Brother Dehua, I think about the workshop day and night. It's not like you. You were looking for me at noon yesterday."  Not many people¡­¡±

    "Ahem!"

    With Fang Xing¡¯s thick skin, he still felt a little embarrassed by these words.

    Yesterday at noon, he was just a little tired, so he took a nap.

    As everyone knows, young men are a little angry after waking up, so they had an in-depth exchange with Zhang Shuhui behind closed doors.  The results were great and I felt energetic all day long.

    Zhu Zhanji laughed proudly, and then went to find his prince father.

    " You really need to report the iron material first, otherwise the villains such as Shang Dequan, the doctor from the Ministry of Industry, and Li Qi, will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble.

    "What?"

    In the workshop, when Shang Dequan heard Li Qi¡¯s report, his eyes almost fell down and he said in astonishment: ¡°The emperor¡¯s grandson wants to trial-produce muskets in Fangjiazhuang?¡±

    Li Qi said proudly: "Master Shang, one of my subordinates heard about this. I heard that the Emperor Taisun is planning to build a new type of musket based on Zhu Fang."

    "this¡­¡­"

    When people in official circles hear about something, their first reaction is not to evaluate the benefits to the country, but to first evaluate what benefits they can gain from this matter.

    Shang Dequan stroked his beard and asked with a gloomy look, "Do you think this is reliable?"

    "Unreliable!"

    Li Qi gloated and said: "That Zhu Fang was just a skilled craftsman in the workshop before. We have many such craftsmen here. If Zhu Fang wants to build a sharp weapon based on him, haha! That's a big joke.  !¡±

    Shang Dequan squinted his eyes, wondering if he could use this matter to attack the prince, and asked casually: "Are you sure?"

    "certainly."

    Although Li Qi only knew a little about musket manufacturing, it did not prevent him from using his previous experience in managing workshops to judge the results.

    I have been working in the workshop for many years. If it is a new firearm,It¡¯s so easy to develop, I¡¯ve been promoted a long time ago, okay!

    "snort!"

    Shang Dequan snorted coldly, then waved his hand and said: "If the prince writes down the text, then give it to them. As long as it is not excessive, give them any materials. If you can't get anything good by then, I will take a look at this waste of money."  What a sin it is to use money just for one person¡¯s curiosity!¡±

    Li Qi nodded and prepared to go out, but Shang Dequan stopped him again, and after pondering for a while he said: "Since His Highness the Grand Sun is also interested, why don't you do something here, otherwise others will accuse us of being a vegetarian!"

    Li Qi was overjoyed when he heard this. He wants me to develop new weapons too!

    Regarding the catty in the middle of the new weapon, others don't know, but Li Qi can't understand it again. He said with joy: "Yes, there will be gratitude to send it here at that time, and the adults should not refuse."

    Shang Dequan waved his hand, and after Li Qi left, he couldn't wait to write a letter, informing King Zhu Gaoxi of the Han Dynasty about the matter, and then expressed his disapproval of the matter later, hoping that the King of Han could take the opportunity to give it to the prince.  A lesson for father and son.

    After handing the letter to his confidant, Shang Dequan went outside humming a little tune.

    ¡­¡­

    The weather is getting colder day by day, and the Chinese cabbage is finally harvested.

    Boss Li straightened up from the vegetable field and looked at the cabbage piled beside the field, feeling a little dazed.

    Fangjiazhuang used to grow Chinese cabbage, but there was no cellar, so the uneaten cabbage was piled in the corner before winter, and it couldn¡¯t last for half a month.

    But under the arrangement of young master Fang Xing, every household dug a cellar this year and put all the Chinese cabbage in the cellar according to the arrangement of Zhuangzi, except for the Chinese cabbage to be made into kimchi.

    The wife was on the side to stop her youngest son from pulling the vegetable leaves. Seeing that the head of the family was in a daze, she said, "His dad, it's time to get our jar, right?"

    Boss Li nodded and said, "The housekeeper said yesterday that I will go to the main house to pick it up later."

    ¡°It¡¯s not just that!¡±

    His wife smiled and said: "We were notified yesterday that one person from each family must make kimchi in the main house. After the pickling is done, each family will have three jars."

    Boss Li said oh and said: "Then you go to the main house after lunch and learn how to make kimchi first, and then I will go get the three jars."

    In the afternoon, there was a commotion in the main house. Fang Xing sat on the steps with a straight face, looking at the flower girl who was shouting and teaching people how to make kimchi.

    ¡°You have to wash your hands and the jar, otherwise it will rot!¡±

    "Attention, the dishes must be placed firmly, and water must be added to the mouth of the jar to keep it sealed." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
