Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

As Li Shimin's order was issued, a large amount of coke was filled into the combustion chamber, and cart after cart of iron ore was transported to the blast furnace by workers on pulleys.

"Stuffing done!"

"Fuel loaded!"

As the craftsmen complete the work one by one in accordance with the regulations in the production safety manual.

A giant blower driven by water flow continuously delivers air into the combustion chamber. The exhaust gas is discharged from the chimney, and a small amount of exhaust gas is blown back into the molten iron through the channel to control the carbon content.

Soon the worker responsible for observing the molten state came over and reported: "The ore has turned into a molten state, and it is expected that the gate will be opened and the material can be discharged after half a stick of incense!"

Time passed quickly. Li Shimin was sweating a lot as he watched from a distance, and he was finally able to open the gate.

Yuchi Baoqi called the worker responsible for opening the gate and warned him about safe operating procedures. If he was afraid of changing people, he would do it.

After hearing this, the worker walked to the gate, took a wooden stick and pushed the gate sideways to open.

The instantly red molten iron flows out from the outlet and into the prepared molds, turning into pieces of steel ingots.

The workers quickly poured the prepared water on the formed steel ingot to help it quickly form. After forming, they used tools to take it out. After secondary cooling, it is stacked in the stockpile area.

According to calculations by officials from the Ministry of Industry, this ironmaking will produce [-] kilograms of steel!

Some officials from the Ministry of Industry randomly took away steel ingots for testing, and the results were obtained quickly.

"Your Majesty! These are steel ingots comparable to those of Baili Steel! Baili Steel can be mass-produced!"

Li Shimin was stunned by the continuous joy: "What, what did you say? This furnace of [-] kilograms is all [-] steelmaking? This? Really?"

The civil servants were also shocked, and they all raised their hands to congratulate His Majesty.

On the other hand, the general's side has already exploded.

"Why should the iron made by my son be used by your army first? It was made by my son!"

Yuchi Jingde quarreled with the generals, fearing that they would not know that it was his son who had done it.

Cheng Yaojin did not hesitate to give in: "His Majesty asked your son to practice it, why do you keep it to yourself?"

"That's right, Zhijie is right!" All the generals agreed.

Li Jing stood up at this time: "To be fair, it is wrong to give it to any one of you alone. We are all generals of the Tang Dynasty and we must unite. Why don't you give it to me? With this batch of steel, I will definitely win the battle." Li Khan!”

All the generals said in unison: "Fuck you!"

Li Jing was sprayed with saliva and Xingzi was speechless.

After learning that there were two furnaces a day and one furnace weighing [-] kilograms, there was no shortage of iron, and the generals finally stopped.

"The system has detected that the host's mission has actually been completed, and the system will issue the mission reward. Ding, it has been issued, please check it!" Then fell into endless silence.

Yuchi Baoqi trembled and opened the void warehouse and saw a blueprint. After looking at the description, it’s a nest! Ocean freighter! There is also a long list of needed supplies below.

"The system prompts that this drawing can be automatically generated after collecting the required materials, and the materials will be used to manufacture the items marked on the drawing."

Yuchi Baoqi almost jumped for joy. If Li Shimin hadn't been sitting opposite, he would have taken off long ago.

"It's just like playing a game. You just save the materials and click to combine them. It's so convenient!"

Li Shimin saw that he was grinning from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ears, and said: "You did a good job this time, you solved the steel problem of Datang. Tell me what reward you want?"

Yuchi Baoqi regained his composure and said, "My dear father-in-law, what kind of rewards are we talking about as a family? When will the marriage decree for this son-in-law be issued? This is more urgent."

Li Shimin tilted his head: "You don't want a reward? Lizhi is the eldest princess. You, a small son of Chang'an County, still want to be the eldest princess?"

Yuchi Baoqi said flatteringly: "How can my good father-in-law let me suffer? Right, if you want to give, just give me a prince. When the time comes, I will also be a prince and I will go and kill my father."

Li Shimin kicked Yuchi Baoqi, "You are thinking about teasing your father every day. You follow me into the palace, and Li Zhi is clamoring to leave the palace to find you."

When they heard that the goddess was leaving the palace to find him, Yuchi Baoqi was all confused.

"Do I have to bring a gift? Is my hair combed? Are my clothes a little wrinkled? If not, I have to go to the workshop to get a few things." Yuchi Baoqi jumped up and down in the carriage.

Li Shimin stopped him quickly: "Instruct your servants to go back to the palace with me first. I will reward you for your merits."

After Yuchi Baoqi gave detailed instructions to his general, he still had to ask him to repeat what he said.

The carriage drove into Chengtianmen and all the way to the outside of Ganlu Hall.

All the important ministers and generals were standing inside, but Yuchi Baoqi was lying on the soft couch and fell asleep.

When Yuchi Jingde saw him like this, he wanted to go over and grab him. Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Let him go. He has been busy for the past month and a half. He has completed this iron-making matter very well, far exceeding my expectations." . Discuss how to reward."

Yuchi Jingde left the job and said: "He is my son and I should avoid suspicion, but the construction of the ironmaking workshop this time will make us in the Tang Dynasty no longer have to worry about iron materials. I dare to ask Quanzi for credit!"

The generals also spoke: "I second my proposal."

The Prime Minister came out and said: "The matter of iron materials is a major military and state matter, and your Majesty deserves a heavy reward!"

All civil servants raised their hands and said without any objection: "I second the proposal."

"He is now the son of the founding county of Chang'an. His promotion is too small for such great achievements. I want to directly promote him to the title of founding county magistrate, with a household of [-] households. Do you have any objections?" Li Shimin touched his beard and said.

"Your Majesty's decision is arbitrary, and I have no objections."

After the ministers left, Li Shimin left behind Yuchi Jingde: "Black face, you gave birth to a good son. You also know about him and Li Zhi. In fact, he still has a lot of merits that I have not rewarded. He also Young to avoid having no title in the future. I know that he has no interest in power. If possible, he would rather eat at home and wait to die. You have to urge him to work for the Tang Dynasty. This time the reward is less, but Princess Shang is the eldest daughter of the Tang Dynasty. It’s not a loss either. What do you think?”

Yuchi Jingde quickly handed over his hand and thanked him: "Your Majesty, this brat is extremely lucky to be able to marry the princess. He must not ask for any more rewards."

"Okay, after you get the imperial edict, you can go back to the house first. This boy's mother-in-law will leave him to eat at the Li Zheng Palace. If it's too late, let him sleep in the palace as the Prince Consort."

Yuchi Jingde quickly accepted the imperial edict and went home happily to offer it.

"You brat, your people are here with something. Please wake up." Li Shimin pushed Yuchi Baoqi twice.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Shimin calling her to get up. Yuchi Baoqi woke up immediately.

"Father-in-law, why did I fall asleep? What time is it now? Is the palace door going to be locked? I have to leave quickly."

"Why don't you go? Your mother-in-law has left you to have a meal at the Lizheng Hall! Li Zhi is there too. Wang De has brought you the things sent by your servant."

Yuchi Baoqi opened the package and looked at two bottles of perfume, six soaps, two small mirrors with red paper on them, and two sets of glassware.

Looking at these things, Yuchi Baoqi still shook his head. As expected, the time was too short, so he could only make these things.

After collecting the package, he and Li Shimin walked slowly towards the Li Zheng Hall.
