Pick up a female emperor as a wife

Chapter 326 Come and see what a genius is!

After Qin Chuan went to the Xuewei's secret underground cannon manufacturing base and learned about it.

Qin Chuan discovered the problem.

The craftsmen led by Lu Yanan had not been able to successfully smelt the ore brought from the Wusun Kingdom for such a long time.

Not to mention making cannons.

Looking at their dusty and dusty appearance, they don't seem to be slacking off.

Could it be that the secret smelting method he had obtained from the Wusun Kingdom did not include a way to increase the temperature inside the smelting furnace?

Qin Chuan took the book on smelting secrets and read it carefully.

Found out that there really wasn’t!

Before, he just took a quick look and didn't look at it carefully.

I really didn't expect that there was no record of this.

But this shouldn't be the case!

The Wusun Kingdom successfully melted this kind of ore to make swords.

It can only be said that Ling Huanyu did not even trust Concubine Yao, and the smelting secret method he gave her was incomplete. He should have given the method of how to increase the temperature inside the furnace to others.

Qin Chuan secretly cursed himself for being an idiot!

Why didn’t I look at it carefully at the beginning? If I had discovered the problem earlier, it wouldn’t have dragged on until now.

Qin Chuan originally wanted to get angry with them, but now that he was also responsible for this matter, he naturally suppressed his anger.

But they didn’t even melt the ore, and they didn’t report it.

Qin Chuan could probably guess that Lu Yanan, who was in charge of leading the craftsmen, had a very strong self-esteem and wanted to solve everything with his own abilities.

Qin Chuan glanced at Lu Yanan.

He noticed that she was looking at him too.

After looking into each other's eyes.

Seeing her stubborn look, he took the lead and said, "Mr. Qin, give me another seven days, and I will definitely be able to melt these ores."

Qin Chuan doesn't have seven days to give her.

He waved his hand and said, "Time is running out. Leave the task of melting the ore to me!"

As soon as this statement came out!

The whole audience was shocked.

Everyone looked at Qin Chuan in surprise.

In the eyes of these craftsmen, although Qin Chuan is a world-famous talent, smelting ore is not something that these scholars can do.

They have been working hard on this for many days and don't want Qin Chuan to interfere.

"Mr. Qin, Team Leader Lu has already figured out how to smelt the ore. Please take back your order!"

Many people came to ask for help.

Qin Chuan had no intention of paying attention to them.

Judging from their reactions, they definitely think he is not capable of this.

It's a pity that he really can.

The biggest reason why these ores cannot be melted at present is that the temperature in the furnace is not high enough.

Even though Qin Chuan had never smelted anything before, he knew that in order to increase the temperature in the furnace, he needed to increase the amount of oxygen.

He still uses bellows in his hometown in the countryside.

Once the bellows blow, the temperature will be much higher than before.

The ancient Chinese transition from bronze to iron was due to the emergence of bellows.

Later, hydraulic blast devices appeared, which greatly improved the level of metal smelting.

Qin Chuan was good at hands-on work, so he prepared to make a bellows.

As for the hydraulic blower, there is currently no water resource in this cave and it cannot be manufactured. It will not be too late to manufacture it when a suitable place is found in the future.

But Qin Chuan was just about to take action.

Lu Yanan and all the craftsmen knelt down one after another.

Beg Qin Chuan to revoke his decision.

Qin Chuan was speechless.

How much do you look down on him?

Seeing that Qin Chuan had not agreed to them yet, Lu Yanan seemed unable to bear it.

He stood up and said, "Mr. Qin, you are just a scholar. Don't do things you are not good at. Yanan really doesn't want to say anything too harsh. We are not far from success now. I hope you can face the reality!"

Qin Chuan raised his eyebrows.

Originally, he wanted to ignore them and give the bellows to them after they were done making them. He believed that with their knowledge of the secret smelting method, as long as they could melt the ore successfully, they should be able to make a cannon smoothly.

But what Lu Yanan said really made him unhappy.

What does it mean to not want to say something unpleasant?

What does it mean to recognize the reality?

It seems that he needs to slap his face.

At the same time, we also need to curb Lu Yanan's enthusiasm, otherwise if she encounters any problems next time, she will not report it and choose to solve it herself.

It will have a great impact on his next actions and deployments.

Qin Chuan smoothed his hair and looked back at Lu Yanan: "Do you think you are good at smelting?"

"Of course, I am a genius in this area!" Lu Yanan smiled slightly.

"You may be a genius in front of others, but you are not really a genius in front of me, Qin Chuan." Qin Chuan also laughed.

“Master Qin is indeed the greatest literary genius of all time, but our current need to smelt ore has nothing to do with your literary talent.

Laymen should not interfere with professionals, otherwise the result will not be good. "Lu Yanan said earnestly.

"I'm sorry, what I'm talking about is the smelting of ore. You are not a genius in front of me in this matter!" Qin Chuan knocked on the smelting furnace next to him.

Lu Yanan's face darkened. How could Qin Chuan, a layman, compare to her talent in smelting?

She felt humiliated!

She couldn't help but said angrily: "Qin Chuan! Stop talking nonsense! How can you compare yourself with me in this matter!? I advise you to take back what you just said now! Otherwise, I will not serve you!"

"Incompetent roars are often the most useless." Qin Chuan yawned and said, "If you think you are a genius, let's make a bet. If you win, everything here will be up to you, and I, Qin Chuan, will also apologize for you.

If you lose, from now on you must put aside your so-called self-esteem and obey the orders of this young master!

As for what we are betting on, it is naturally whether I can solve the problem of ore smelting."

"you!"

Lu Yanan seemed to be greatly insulted, and her pretty face was almost distorted.

In her opinion, how could Qin Chuan, a mere layman, solve the problem?

Why are you kidding!

"Captain Lu, please accept Mr. Qin's bet and let him know that laymen cannot manage professionals. Only then can we focus on solving the problem." At this time, a dark and thin old man spoke.

This old man seems to have some status.

His words softened Lu Yanan's distorted expression. "Qin Chuan, you are an outsider and you are not qualified to bet with me. But in order to prevent outsiders like you from interfering in the future, I decided to bet with you. It's just that you have no chance of winning!"

"Whether we have a chance of winning or not, we'll know after the competition. We'll know the outcome in three hours at most!" Qin Chuan said.

Lu Yanan shook his head helplessly: "An amateur is an amateur. You can't solve this problem in three hours, let alone three days. Three hours later can only prove that you will fail!"

Qin Chuan was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Yanan anymore.

This kind of woman who is arrogant because of her talent must be given a good lesson!

As Qin Chuan left the cave, he began to make bellows.

An hour later, the bellows was ready.

He then installed the bellows on the furnace, and as the ore was put into the furnace, he began to pull the bellows continuously.

Lu Yanan and others also came over to watch.

They had never seen a bellows before and did not know its function.

In their opinion, no matter what Qin Chuan put into the furnace, it would be impossible to melt the ore.

Qin Chuan's pulling here and there can only be said to be a waste of effort.

however!

Only half an hour passed.

Qin Chuan's mouth corners slightly raised, and then he greeted Lu Yanan and others.

"Come and take a look!"

In Lu Yanan's opinion, Qin Chuan asked her to come over now because he wanted her help.

If Qin Chuan sincerely wanted to learn from her, she would be happy to help, but with Qin Chuan's attitude, she didn't want to help!

But she didn't want to embarrass both parties, so she deliberately said: "It's not the agreed three hours yet, don't rush, just keep working hard and do your own thing!"

"Do you think I want you to help me?" Qin Chuan saw through Lu Yanan's thoughts.

"What else? What do you want me to do?" Lu Yanan asked back, stretching his head.

"You think too highly of yourself." Qin Chuan said coldly, "I asked you to come here because I have successfully smelted the ore!"

Lu Yanan frowned slightly: "Did you succeed?"

"If you fail, why would I call you?" Qin Chuan said sarcastically, then hooked his finger: "Come on, let's see what a genius is! See clearly the gap between you and a true genius!"
