Chapter 341 Block Refining Method

"Field, you don't look worried at all. Instead, you look very happy." Upon hearing that the situation was not optimistic, Tisifa's mind was filled with worry, and she said anxiously, "My lord, it would be terrible if they have ideas about Nightfall."

"Have any ideas? Don't think so, little angel, stay calm." Field couldn't help but smile, and raised his head to ask Annery, "Have you had any ideas about the Night Territory before?"

"No! Damn it, I didn't even know there were any living people here, I swear." Aniri immediately turned red and jumped up angrily, "Let us go quickly, we have no intention of aggression at all."

From my own perspective, I really feel that there is a madman next to me, which is scary, and I am afraid of being targeted.

But the crux of the problem is that the other party didn't expect that Starry Night City had been recovered. Even if they knew, they wouldn't have much interest in a dilapidated place.

"Don't worry, sir."

"How can I not be anxious? The peace of the empire has been threatened. I must report it to the Queen immediately!"

"Sure enough, there was only a wrong name, not a wrong title." Field's eyes were unmoved. He raised his hand and lowered his hand to signal him to calm down. Then he said shamelessly, "You are indeed worthy of being called a little fierce horse, just like My title is Lion of the North."

It's time to promote your cool and cool name.

"Your title is only Baron Happy Bean, oh, the untouchables will call you devil."

"Okay, okay." Field laughed, changed his face at the speed of light and said, "Fork out!"

After all Aniri's equipment was confiscated, they were sent directly to Silver Claw for questioning.

Field obtained a full set of second-level knight equipment: the second-level Warcraft Nightmare Horse, which belongs to the war horse breed and is courageous and tenacious. The disadvantage is that it is stubborn and only recognizes one master, so it can only stay and give birth to ponies.

In addition, the complete set of armor, lance, long sword and flying hammer are all customized products in the second level and are of extremely high value.

"Why are everyone so rich? Why am I the poorest?"

Field lamented that he only used war horses with the blood of Warcraft. Good guy, others can just ride Warcraft horses.

"Field, are we going to deliver a message to Her Majesty the Queen?"

Still worried about the rebels, Tisifa stepped forward and grabbed Field's arm and shook it.

Report to the Queen? If she could reward herself severely, she would definitely report it.

"Wait a minute, I always feel like things are not that simple. Besides, I need to plan a lot of things."

From time to time, the soft fragrance rubbed against his elbow made Field feel happy, but he didn't say it very straightforwardly.

The so-called planning, of course, is to prepare to benefit yourself.

"Let Silver Claw and the others interrogate him carefully before making a decision. By the way, accompany me to the industrial area."

Back in the industrial area of ​​the manor, Field couldn't wait to get ready to smelt iron.

Call the little fox Goglis and all the blacksmiths in the Night Territory. Well, there are only three blacksmiths and blacksmith apprentices. They are still just learning and were used by Simon to fool people.

But for Field, it is nothing. As long as he studies hard, he will become a qualified blacksmith sooner or later.

He glanced at everyone present.

"Everyone is here, let me see your work process. I need to learn about iron-making technology."

Due to the pressing need for farming, Field's idea of ​​building an iron-making blast furnace had not yet been realized. Now, I have no choice but to let the blacksmith show me his method, just so that I can understand how iron is made in this world.

"yes!"

The three blacksmiths all look good. Since coming to Night Territory, they have not had the opportunity to forge iron. Instead, they are engaged in the repair and maintenance of iron tools, and their income is not low.

"Sir, this is the iron-making furnace we built in advance."

"Huh? You said these mud piles are made of... uh, small chimneys." Field pointed to the small clay stove with a look of disbelief on his face, "I thought they were made by children."

The volcanic-shaped hollow mound, which is three and a half people tall and made entirely of clay, looks like something that primitive people would use. It is difficult to associate it with an industrial activity like ironmaking.

In most parts of the Griffin Empire, the extremely backward block smelting method is used for iron smelting.

"Ahem, sir, this is the technique taught by my teacher. It can't be wrong." A blacksmith apprentice scratched his head in embarrassment, "Then let's start making iron."

"Don't worry about me, you can do it your own way."

Field prepared paper and pen and recorded the entire process.

The ancient block refining method is very primitive. To put it simply, it is pure burning of stones, and farmers of later generations can do it.

Pour crushed iron ore into the small blast furnace, ignite it under the small blast furnace, and use a prepared earth door to block the bottom of the small blast furnace to prevent heat loss.

Add charcoal while burning, and then use a blower to blow the fire vigorously.

The core of all steps is to increase the temperature and remove impurities.

After tinkering for a long time, the blacksmiths were so tired that they were covered in sweat, as if they were fished out of water.

After firing for a period of time, the leading blacksmith relied on experience and nodded: "It's almost done, let's start the furnace."

The other two people picked up a hoe, yes, it was a hoe, and hit the bottom seal, smashing the Nilu into pieces.

Field was shocked: "It's actually a one-time use!"

It took most of a day to build a stove, but they smashed it after using it.

"There is magma coming out." Tisifa's eyes widened and he pointed at the bottom of the small blast furnace.

"This is an impurity in the ore. It's not impossible to say it's magma." Field did not correct him rigidly. Some people mistakenly think that the flowing iron is molten iron, but when burned with charcoal, the temperature is only more than 800 degrees. The block smelting method cannot burn the iron into molten iron, and can only obtain honeycomb iron.

Therefore, it is impossible to directly cast the barrel with molten iron and molds, and it is impossible to use the block-making method.

"There should be some ingredients like glass in it."

"Glass? Impossible. Glass is one of the most noble minerals, especially crystal glass." Tisifa shook his head in thought.

Field coaxed a child and patted Tisifa on the head: "Haha, it's just glass and crystal. I'll wholesale it to you later."

"No, no, no." Tisifa embarrassedly drew circles on the ground with her toes, "It's too expensive."

Field concentrated his attention and continued to find out the mass industrial level of the Griffin Empire.

After smashing the stove, the blacksmith shoveled away the waste and used pliers to pull out a red honeycomb larger than a basketball.

"As expected, it's honeycomb iron. It's too backward."

Field's brows relaxed. Due to the existence of a large number of magical creations and special ores, he has always maintained a low-key attitude towards learning. After all, who knows whether there will be magic iron smelting.

But now it seems that this is the ancient iron-making method in my impression. In the previous life, the Western Han Dynasty eliminated this technology and used blast furnaces to make iron. Europe has maintained the block smelting method for a long time, and the technology of casting iron and steelmaking was a technology that only became popular in Europe during the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
