Chapter 39 Casting Airguns

While admiring, Xiao He's eyes fell on the last poem, and he was stunned for a moment. There was no other poem that could match this poem.

Searching and searching, deserted and miserable, how could the word "sorrow" be said!

What exactly has the young master gone through to have such emotion? However, he is only a teenager! What is he worried about?

"How is it? Isn't it shocking?" Li Zhao interrupted Xiao He's meditation and said proudly.

"Very good, very good!"

Xiao He had not yet recovered from the shock when he answered, because he remembered the young master's words: written in one breath.

He actually wrote so many poems in one breath, and each one is so wonderful. It is even worse than the "Book of Songs". How did the young master do it?

Sure enough, he is smart, but he is not as good as him!

After a moment of silence, Li Zhao didn't want to be obsessed with this anymore. His expression suddenly became serious and he said:

"Next, I'm going to open a workshop, recruit people, and produce paper in large quantities. Are you willing to lend a hand?"

This is an innovative thing and will become something sought after by students. Of course Xiao He is willing to do so.

"willing!"

"Okay, starting from today, you will be responsible for making paper. You must put the paper into the market as soon as possible and thoroughly promote the paper."

Li Zhao handed over this task to Xiao He, and at the same time pointed to the bamboo scrolls and the 'Political Economics' that Xiao He put in his pocket.

"Print these two books as soon as possible, no, they are three books." Li Zhao divided the two books into three books, Famous Political Lectures, Economic Theory, and Xuan Mo's Selected Poems.

Xuan Mo was the name he suddenly thought of.

"As for how to print, this is the printing method. You should learn it as soon as possible. Once the paper is made, you can start printing immediately."

Li Zhao took out a bamboo scroll that had been prepared and warned.

Xiao He took the bamboo scroll and immediately became serious, vowing to complete the task.

Li Zhao was very satisfied.

Ever since he asked Ah Chao to deliver fertilizer to Princess Yangzi, he had been wandering around and not seen anyone for three days. No, when he appeared this time, he excitedly told Li Zhao something, as if he had experienced it himself.

"Master, what a happy event! Princess Yangzi is amazing, she actually came first in the poetry competition."

Li Zhao was quite surprised when he heard this, but since Yangzi had a happy event, he was naturally happy for it.

The next moment, Ah Chao showed displeasure and sighed to himself: "Hey! I don't know what bad luck the palace maid Qiuxiang had, but she found a good poem and the princess won."

"No, she's crazy. She always says that I'm not as capable as her."

Li Zhao glared at Ah Chao fiercely.

This kid has also started to drift off. He has only been in contact with Princess Yangzi for a few days, and he is hanging out with the palace maids. It is not that he will not be ignored in the future.

"But the poem she found is indeed wonderful! It is not only sought after by all talents, but also greatly appreciated by Mr. Fusu."

Oh! Li Zhao was confused and secretly thought what kind of poem it was! It was so charming, and he suddenly felt a little jealous.

"What poem is it? Is it that good?"

"Of course! Even if I don't understand poetry, I feel pretty good about it."

Li Zhao was even more upset. He had Tang poetry and Song lyrics, and was full of literary talent, but he couldn't get recognition, but a poem became popular. He wanted to see what kind of poem it was. Would it be nice to have his poem?

Ah Chao seemed to understand his thoughts and started to read:

Silently walking alone to the west building, the eaves are like hooks, the lonely sycamores deep in the courtyard lock the clear autumn.

Continuous cutting and chaos are the national worries, especially the ordinary feeling in the heart.

Um?

Li Zhao was stunned for a moment, feeling like he had been plagiarized. Wasn't this the poem he recited on the spur of the moment? How could it be obtained by Princess Yangzi and even appear at the poetry festival?

Qiuxiang? He suddenly remembered the name, a little embarrassed, and thought to himself: When Qiuxiang appears in Da Qin, will there be Tang Bohu?

Haha! He thinks too much.

But I quickly came up with a rough idea. Maybe he couldn't help chanting in the palace at that time, and Qiuxiang heard it!

As a palace maid, Qiuxiang was looking for good poems at the right time, so she naturally dedicated them to her.

"Haha!" Li Zhao smiled and said: "It turns out that my poems are so outstanding that they are ranked first. It seems that I am also an elegant person!"

Hmm! Ah Chao blinked his eyes and secretly wondered what nonsense the young master was talking about and why he wanted to put so much gold on himself. This poem was obviously found by Princess Yangzi.

Li Zhao saw Ah Chao's disbelief, smiled mysteriously, and said, "You don't believe it? I have composed many songs, so you might as well ask Xiao He to have a look."

The young master was so serious about what he said. Ah Chao was dubious, so he went to find Xiao He. Sure enough, he learned from Xiao He that the poems in the bamboo scroll were all written by the young master. His jaw dropped for a moment!

Li Zhao smiled proudly and thought to himself, this is the consequence of you underestimating me. Will you dare to underestimate me for not being elegant in the future?

This incident was just an interlude. Soon Ah Chao told him about an invitation from Princess Yangzi.

The poetry meeting itself has two parts, one is poetry and the other is hunting.

Princess Yangzi came first, and she was so happy that she wanted to invite Li Zhao to participate in their activities, hunting, saying that thanks to his fertilizer, her flowers became brighter.

Of course, Princess Yangzi has another meaning, which is to let Li Zhaoduo get to know some talents, which will be beneficial to his official career.

Li Zhao, who had no official career, didn't care at all. After all, he was leaving soon, but Princess Yangzi invited her personally!

He will definitely go.

"Hunting? It seems very good." Li Zhao smiled and said to himself, then remembered the air gun that was rewarded by the system, "It is indeed produced by the system, and it has a purpose! Isn't this just in time?"

So, he quickly told Ah Chao to buy some iron ore and he wanted to smelt the iron to make air guns.

Hunting!

Airsoft is the magic weapon.

Ah Chao didn't know what was going on and quickly went to take care of it.

In the next two days, Li Zhao immersed himself in iron smelting.

The Qin Dynasty was still in the primitive stage of iron smelting. Although iron was smelted, it was very crude. Due to technical reasons, most of the smelted iron was pig iron with many impurities, resulting in insufficient toughness.

And it is not widely used. In addition to being used as a weapon, it can also be used as a farm tool.

The iron smelting technology that Li Zhao obtained from the system is different. It is a smelting reduction method, which only relies on high-temperature melting to gradually remove impurities, especially carbon components.

He still knows about the classification of types of iron in his previous life.

The carbon content is used as the classification standard. If it is greater than 3%, it is pig iron. Although pig iron is hard, it has insufficient toughness and is easily broken by excessive external force. However, if the carbon content is less than one ten thousandth, it is wrought iron, which is also considered by some experts.

Known as pure iron, wrought iron has strong toughness and a wide range of uses. It developed rapidly in later generations and is used in various industries.

What Li Zhao obtained was the wrought iron smelting technique, which can be described as a treasure in the iron smelting world!

Wrought iron was quickly smelted, and then he cast molds to create airgun parts.

Air guns do not require gunpowder, but rely on gas explosions to propel shooting. They are very particular about gas compression. Naturally, they require more effort in construction, and the advantages of the attached air gun manufacturing technology are revealed.

Within a day, Li Zhao built the air gun and tried a few shots. It was indeed powerful enough. If the air gun in his previous life made him feel handsome, this gun was a hunting artifact.

He estimated that the range of this gun was at least 500 meters, and its accuracy was very good. It was much better than the air guns he knew in his previous life.

I have to say that the products produced by the system are indeed excellent.

Three days passed quickly, and it was the day of hunting.
Chapter completed!
