Chapter 338: Can I come here to eat furtively every day?
The old blacksmith was confused. In fact, after hearing what Robb had said, he still didn't understand it.
In his mind, the element of carbon was generally regarded as something like "water element", "fire element", "wind element" and "earth element". This kind of understanding was wrong, but it was barely enough.
Robb smiled and said, "I know you don't understand, but you will understand after I tell you the key point next. Let me draw a conclusion first. When the carbon element infiltrates into the iron, it can make the iron hard. You already know this."
The old blacksmith nodded.
Robb said, "but have you ever thought about the question of the ratio between the carbon and the iron?"
The old blacksmith shook his head.
Robb said, "I've come to a conclusion directly. Iron with more carbon element is hard, but at the same time it will become brittle and easy to break. As for iron with less carbon element, it will be soft and not easy to break. It's good for twisting and deforming, but it's not good for attacking hard."
Speaking of this, the old blacksmith suddenly understood. "You mean that we should find a balance between them. As long as we find the best proportion of the carbon and iron, we can make it hard, easy to cast, but not easy to break."
"Bingo!" Robb said with a smile, "it's pleasant to talk to someone who knows technology."
The old blacksmith seemed to understand something and said happily, "I understand, your majesty! I understand now."
"Really?" Robb smiled and asked, "then how do you plan to mix the carbon element in the iron?"
The old blacksmith said, "I certainly can't rub it with my hand, but I can put the iron in charcoal or coal for a long time. Anyway, I will test it and find the best amount of time it needs, then the best quality of iron can be made.
Robb gave a thumbs up and said, "it's a good plan, but it's still too stupid."
The queen couldn't help but ask, "do you have any other good idea?"
Robb smiled and said, "alchemy! You take molten iron and charcoal as two kinds of alchemy materials and give them to the alchemists to understand and ponder, so as to find the best match. Relatively speaking, when the alchemists look for the combination of the two elements, they should be better than a blacksmith."
The Queen's eyes lit up, but she immediately said, "letting noble alchemists study low-grade things like iron and charcoal. I'm afraid they won't accept it."
Robb grinned evilly and said, "Dont accept these useless alchemists. I'm sure he won't be able to keep up with the rubbish of the times in the future. Keep him useless and kill him cleaner."
The queen was rendered speechless
The queen was lost in thought. She found that Robb could always pull the dirty things of servants to the noble people, such as refining iron.
Now Robb even stretched out his claw to alchemy masters!
How crazy he was.
The queen couldn't help but ask, "why do I feel that you are trying to turn my nobles into workers?"
Robb laughed, "no, I didn't. In fact, I have been dedicated to freeing the labor force of ordinary people and noble people. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made that fire box."
Hearing this, the queen seemed to understand something, but now she still had enough manpower, so she could not realize the importance of saving manpower. She still felt that things like big fire boxes were useless.
"Well, thank you for teaching me how to do it," the queen said calmly. Then she hung up the phone and urged the old blacksmith to study the steel making technique. At the same time, she also secretly made up her mind to call a few alchemists over and let them study the match between molten iron and carbon. Robb was right. It was easier for a meticulous alchemist to make more achievements in the match of elements, A blacksmith's earth skills were unreliable.
The head of the cat folk also bowed to him and went to make the net with a large roll of steel wire. The cat folk was born to be good at fishing, so they always relied on their own claws as nets. It was difficult for them to make a real net. Fortunately, there was a technical school in Westwind Town now.
The cat girl, Huahua, also wanted to follow the head, but Robb waved at her and smiled, "Huahua, don't leave. I'll teach you some unique skills that can make a lot of money."
Huahua shook her head, "I don't like money."
Robb immediately corrected himself, "You can get a lot of fish!"
Huahua jumped up and said, "Wow, I want it!"
Robb smiled and said, "your head is rich and powerful. He can build a big net to raise fish in the river, but you can't. You know nothing, and you don't have the ability to raise fish. Therefore, what I want to teach you is the technique to develop small fish into big fat fish."
Huahua tilted her head and asked, "develop the small fish into a big fat fish?"
All of a sudden, her jaw was filled with saliva
Robb smiled and said, "I've taught you a unique fish feed formula. Do you know wheat bran?"
"Yes, I know. It's the skin of wheat!" Huahua said. "After farmers harvest the wheat, the bran is useless."
In fact, it couldn't be said to be completely useless. Some villagers who raised pigs would grind the wheat bran into powder and feed them. However, there were not many people raising pigs in Westwind Town, so the yield of wheat bran was very high. Therefore, these things were finally abandoned in a large number and were worthless.
Robb smiled and said, "you go to pick up some bran that no one wants, grind it into powder, and then go to the person who makes soybean milk, ask for some unnecessary soybean dregs, mix them together, and pick up the internal organs of pigs, sheep and cattle that others don't want, and also take them back to dry, grind into powder, and mix them. At last, you use the mixture of these rubbish to feed fish."
With her mouth wide open in surprise, Huahua said, "feed the fish with this? If these rubbish are fed to the fish, they will die, won't they? Fish should eat small bugs and water plants."
Robb chuckled and said, "fish that eat insects and water plants grow slowly, but the fish that eats what I just said grows fast. It won't take a few months for them to grow into a big fat fish."
Shaking her head, Huahua said, "Dont believe, dont believe!"
"Well, forget it if you don't believe me," Robb said with a smile. "Then I'll raise a pond of fish myself. You just need to come and see it every day."
With a smile, Huahua asked, "can I come here to eat furtively every day?"
"No way!"
"That's boring."
Robb smiled and said, "youll have eaten them too early. They haven't grown up yet, so you will lose. When they grow into fat fish, I will allow you to eat them."
"Really?" Huahua was overjoyed. "Then I have to come to see you every day."
