　　Generally speaking, in steel products, the lower the carbon content, the softer, and the higher the brittle, hard. The low-carbon steel is soft, and it is not sharp when used to make swords. The ancients also regarded it as "wrought iron". Only the high-carbon steel's toughness, hardness, and strength meet the needs of weapons. Ancient people think that it is "steel".

　　The carbon content determines the hardness of the steel, so through the performance of being hit by a forging hammer, an experienced blacksmith can distinguish whether it is a piece of soft iron or a good steel that can make swords and swords.

　　 "Master, come take a look, the piece I knocked may be steel!" Suddenly, a worker around me cried in surprise.

But obviously, the worker's judgment was wrong, because Hu Yan knocked the piece of iron with his hand and shook his head: "Not yet, although the quality is much better, but the quality of the steel is still not achieved, this Iron is enough to make kitchen knives and the like, but the quality is still far from playing swords and swords."

　　The words on this side just fell down, and another worker exclaimed again: "Adult, you come to see me here, I believe this piece should be steel, I was also born with iron."

With the worker’s words, the eyes of other people began to shift. At a glance, everyone quickly saw that with each strike of the craftsman’s forging hammer, the sparks continued to spatter, but, in front of him The iron piece couldn't make deep marks.

　　If you look closely, you will find that this iron mass is tough and hard, obviously it is a good pure steel!

"This, this is real steel! Actually, steel was produced directly, this..." Xu Dongxing was almost excited now and didn't know what to say. His voice was trembling now. : "Steel appeared in the first furnace. This is really Hong Fu Qitian. I haven't seen such a thing for 30 years!"

　　 is not just Xu Dongxing, some other people who know it are now shocked, and the crowd is full of discussion for a while.

In this regard, Lin Ze was indifferent. He said flatly to those Xu Sheng and others who were also extremely excited around him: "In fact, this is just a probability. Like the iron smelters in the past, how much does each furnace fry? How many stoves can I fry? And now, what is the number of fryers? What is the quantity? With so much iron, the workers will pick up the iron from the frying iron stove, and the iron will be cooked. From pure iron to high-carbon steel, under these conditions, you can always meet a few pieces of good steel."

　　After hearing Lin Ze’s explanation, Xu Sheng and others suddenly realized, especially those who know iron making, understood the ‘secret’ inside.

　　 However, when the iron factories used to produce the iron, the pig iron was first broken into pieces and put together with charcoal in a much smaller iron-fired furnace. The air box blasted from the top of the furnace.

　　 burned for a long time, the pig iron melted, and then stir with the stick until the iron condensed into a mass, and finally took out the forging slag.

　　 This process is very complicated and extremely time-consuming. In addition, at most, it can only fry more than a few hundred pounds of iron at one time. Such a number is really too much in front of the current iron frying furnace.

Lin Ze directly used blast furnace to make tens of thousands of catties of hot metal at a time, and then the amount of iron fried at one time also reached tens of thousands of catties, which is more than one hundred times the amount of iron fried in the past, so now one or two pieces of fine Steel is not really surprising.

　　 This is actually the huge power of industrial production. Once the quantity goes up, steel naturally appears.

　　After the successful refining of the steel plant, Lin Ze directly appointed Hu Yan as the director of the plant with thousands of households in charge of the daily production management of the steel plant.

Hu Yan’s appointment is only temporary. He is the master of refining, and the focus is still on the refining. Now he is only temporarily serving as the director of the plant. When Lin Ze’s men have the right talents, he will step down. The post of the factory manager.

Hu Yan's ability is indeed very strong. Without two days of effort, he managed the entire iron and steel plant in an orderly manner. Whether it is iron making or steel making, the output is steadily increasing. Now it can produce 30,000 kg of iron every three days. The steel is about 4 kilograms. It can be said that his credit is really great.

　　 And, this output can still rise, because now, in steel plants, only less than half of the production capacity is used.

　　 It's not that Lin Ze doesn't want to fully open, but even if the amount of steel produced in this way Lin Ze can't consume a little, if he continues to increase the scale of production, then Lin Ze can't even consume these steels.

In fact, Lin Ze already had a method of consuming these steels, like building a railway or something, but these things are still in the preparation stage and cannot be used now, so these things are temporarily put on hold until the time comes Use it when appropriate.

　　The railway looks simple, but it is not difficult to actually build it.

　　 Not to mention other things, such as the problem of turning, the problem of train wheels and rails, or the problem of braking, etc. If these problems are not solved, Lin Ze will not easily go to the railway project.

　　The railway is definitely a large steel-consuming household, so as long as the construction of the railway is started, the output in the steel plant is really not a problem.

Not only the railway, but also the construction of the Banyuewan mega-reservoir, which also requires countless steel materials. The only problem now is that the output of the cement field is not enough. In addition, the foundation construction of the reservoir also requires considerable time, so the steel plant has not opened up enough. Horsepower production.

　　 Otherwise, the current output of the steel plant is really not enough for this consumption.

　　Because a lot of steel needs to be consumed in the future, Lin Ze chose to store most of the steel produced and wait for it to be used to produce the corresponding things.

　　 Of course, a small part of the steel is still taken out to produce weapons, but the number is relatively small.

　　 In addition, because of the large amount of pig iron, Lin Ze wanted to produce something practical to consume the pig iron.

　　 Of course, it is best to turn into the molten iron stage and then continue production, so that you can no longer melt pig iron into molten iron, save a lot of fuel, and more environmentally friendly.

What does 　　 produce? Lin Ze thought.

　　 Soon, Lin Ze thought of a way.

　　Because of the lack of iron in the past, the amount of iron products in the hands of Lin Ze's people is really quite pitiful. Now that there are so many pig irons, it will start to open the iron products malls for ordinary people.

As for what commodities will be popular with ordinary people, Lin Ze still knows that in daily life, ordinary people need iron pans, kitchen knives, hoes, scissors and the like. Others can also be in demand. Go to a special iron-making workshop to customize it.

　　The next day, Hu Yan, who was ordered, took some blacksmiths to a workshop that had just been established.

　　 This is Lin Ze's factory for manufacturing old hardware products. The location is next to the iron and steel plant, which is more convenient.

　　In addition to dozens of specialized blacksmiths, Lin Ze recruited three or four hundred young men from the refugees to start working and help them with their work.

　　For example, it specializes in making clay molds and soil, clay making clay molds, and specially transports good glaze from a mountain seven or eight miles away.

　　After everything was ready on the third day, Hu Yan, the factory manager, began to let people move the molten iron from the blast furnace ironmaking area of ​​the iron and steel plant, began pouring various types of iron castings, and produced semi-finished products.

　　The manufacture of iron pan is very simple. Pour a good amount of molten iron directly into the model. After cooling, smash the mud mold and make a pig iron pan.

　　Scissors, kitchen knives and other utensils are also cast into semi-finished products, which have not yet been opened. After taking them out, they will be hand-polished by craftsmen.

　　 Others like shovel, iron hoe, iron tongs, etc., do not need to polish the opener deliberately, casting is more handy and extremely simple.

"Sir, the hardware factory has been built and put into production. Now you can make iron pans, iron tongs, kitchen knives, hatchets, sickles, scissors, iron hoe, iron plow, shovel and other utensils, but because of the lack of manpower, you can make them every day. The number of clay molds is limited, so I made the iron pans and kitchen knives, sickles, and iron hoes more than the other four,” Hu Yanxun reported.

"Very good, Hu Yan, you have worked hard! However, Hu Yan, have you ever asked the price of these irons in the market? You know, only when the things are sold, then it is a good commodity!" Lin Ze took Some worried asked.

　　Hardware commodities are produced, but if they are not sold, then everything is not useless.

　　Hu Yan is a master of refining, but definitely not a businessman, so Lin Ze is really worried about the sale of goods~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This genus has never been seen before. "Hu Yan's face was slightly red, he really ignored this question.

　　 "Sir, do you mean which irons on the market are expensive, and which ones do we manufacture?" Hu Yan realized suddenly.

"It's not the case. Of course, we have to manufacture it at a high price, but we also have to produce it at a low price. In fact, the most important thing here is to see how it is sold. The average quantity is produced. But you have to remember that our selling price is slightly cheaper than the market price." Lin Ze explained.

　　 "Sir, my subordinates have written down!" Hu Yan nodded, and he had a foundation in his heart.

　　After Hu Yan guided Lin Ze into the factory building, he said, "Sir, will your subordinate lead you to the factory to see those iron tools?"

　　 "Well, lead the way!" Lin Ze nodded.

　　 and his party quickly entered the hardware factory. Because it was created by grass, so there are still two rows of grass sheds on both sides.

　　 However, although it looks very simple, but I saw a lot of iron pans, kitchen knives, iron **** and other things under the grass shed, and there are many mud mold residues that can be cleaned in the future.

　　 It can be seen that there is already a hardware factory here.
