Feng Yuheng stroked his forehead, "Just wash when I tell you to, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
He laughed. The damn girl finally turned hostile. Sometimes he thought that he also had a tendency to seek abuse. He felt weird when the girl was friendly, but felt more at ease when she was tough.
Xuan Tianming finally concluded: This king is also a freak!
After they finished washing, Feng Yuheng provocatively stuffed the basin of water into her sleeves and emptied it in front of him. When she took it out again, the basin was completely clean.
He has calmed down and thinks it's great to have such a wife. Life is full of surprises!
"Hengheng." He tugged at his wife's sleeve, "Someday, why don't you try to put me in your sleeve? I also want to see what's going on there."
Feng Yuheng looked at him slyly for a long time before finally saying, "You are so beautiful."
Then, his little body flashed, and in the blink of an eye he slid to the stone door, pushed it open with force, and said to the soldiers outside, "Do you have anything to eat? I'm starving."
The two people outside were originally lying on the stone door wall listening to the sound. Feng Yuheng suddenly pushed the door open, and they were caught off guard. They had no time to hide, and their noses were rubbed raw.
The two of them covered their noses and said with bitter faces: "County Master, the food has been prepared a long time ago. I will bring it to you right away."
Xuan Tianming fiddled with the whip in the house and said, "It seems that the guard outside the cave should be replaced." It's absolutely amazing!
After a while, the soldiers brought the food up, and Xuan Tianming said to her: "This is the food that I specially asked you to prepare for you, come and see if it suits your taste." Although he said this, his expression was simply: Come and see if this king is considerate.
Feng Yuheng looked at the dishes with doubt in his heart, and was embarrassed at that time...Stir-fried pork liver, steamed pig blood, stir-fried pork kidneys, and stewed pig's trotters.
She could understand the first three questions. She was having her period and needed to replenish her blood, but what on earth was that stewed pig's trotter? To...produce milk?
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she asked the soldier serving the dishes helplessly, "Is there anything lighter?"
The soldier nodded, "There is porridge."
Okay, red dates, longan and lotus seeds porridge.
Feng Yuheng finished the meal with a very complicated mood. Although she was constantly complaining in her heart, she did not blame Xuan Tianming at all. She knew that this man was doing it for her own good, but after all, he was a grown man and a prince. How could he understand how a woman should take care of herself during her menstrual period? It was difficult enough for him to figure out that he needed to replenish blood, and it would be unreasonable for her to be picky.
The two of them ate quietly, their chopsticks occasionally touching each other, which was quite cozy. But the bedroom was a bit dull, and she began to think about playing some music while eating.
At this time, Xuan Tianming, who had been silent, suddenly spoke and said to her: "I don't need to ask where you went, but Hengheng, at least you have to let me know that you are safe. You don't know how I feel when I can't find you."
She could hear the grievance in his words, and her nose felt a little sour. She sniffed twice before nodding seriously: "It's my fault this time. No matter where I go in the future, I will definitely tell you that I'm fine and safe."
He thought for a moment and then said, "When the Feng family's ancestral home in Fengtong County caught fire, did you also escape in this way?"
"Yes." She did not hide it from him and only came out when she heard the voice of the seventh brother.
"That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief, "This way I can worry less about you in the future."
Finally, after finishing the meal, Feng Yuheng had a bloated stomach, but she was still full of energy. She said to Xuan Tianming, "Let's go, let's continue to make steel."
He was a little worried: "Do you want to take a break?"
"No need." She shook her head. "How can I sleep if I'm thinking about steelmaking? I can sleep when I'm really too sleepy. Let's go!"
He was forcibly dragged out of the cave by the girl, and the two of them first went to the furnace in the Xutian Cave to take a look. The blacksmiths had already mastered the technology of slag making and slag removal, but the apprentices learned slower and were being guided by their master.
Feng Yuheng told him: "After the apprentices have mastered the first two steps, a blacksmith will stay here to supervise the work, and the others will be transferred away and divided into several groups to do other things."
As they talked, they walked towards the furnace outside the cave. The 116 soldiers who pulled the bellows had practiced very well. Seeing them come back, they happily surrounded them. The young soldier who was chosen as the leader said, "General, County Master, when do we start?"
Xuan Tianming raised his voice and said: "Begin immediately!"
The soldiers cheered.
She pushed the wheelchair to the furnace and sat down on the chair. She first said to the soldier, "We don't need so many people at a time. We should do it as before, in groups of four, taking turns, and resting when we are tired. Others can stay and watch, or go and rest, but don't make a mess or make noise."
"Don't worry, County Lady." The soldier nodded in agreement, then turned around to tell the others.
Feng Yuheng asked Xuan Tianming: "Do you know what step we are going to take next?"
Xuan Tianming asked seriously: "But oxidation?"
She nodded. "Yes, the next two steps are very important, the oxidation period and the decarbonization period. The main task of the oxidation period is to oxidize the carbon and phosphorus in the molten steel, remove the gas and impurities, and make the molten steel evenly heated and heated. You may not understand what I said, let's think about it carefully while we do it."
As she spoke, she opened the furnace. Xuan Tianming knew that a new round of challenges was about to begin.
"Decarburization should actually be classified as part of the oxidation period, because it is an important process in the oxidation period. In order to ensure the purity of the steel, the decarburization amount must be greater than about 0.2 percent." She paused here, "Perhaps you still don't understand the concept of 0.2 percent. Let me put it this way. One of the 100 steamed buns is called 1 percent. 0.2 percent is to divide this steamed bun into 10 parts, and two of the parts are 0.2 percent for the 100."
Xuantian nodded without even thinking, "I understand."
"Okay." Feng Yuheng felt more and more that working with Xuan Tianming was a very happy thing. He understood many modern concepts as soon as they were explained, and he could get used to using many modern things after just one contact, such as clocks. This made her very happy. "Then let's get started."
As she gave the order to start, everyone entered the working state, and even the soldiers who stayed behind to watch held their breath, staring at Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianming's movements carefully, not wanting to miss a single glance.
Feng Yuheng told the four soldiers who were pulling the bellows: "This stage has very high requirements for the bellows. You may not have any rest time at all. When one group can't pull it anymore, another group will be replaced immediately. Don't work while tired, otherwise the slightest deviation in strength will have a huge impact on the things in the furnace."
She was not exaggerating. After all, wind power is not as stable as electricity. Everything depends on manual labor, which brings too much uncertainty.
Fortunately, the people operating the bellows are soldiers in the army. No matter in the past or in the future, soldiers are the most powerful executive force. Soldiers are needed for disaster relief and the opening performance of the international sports event. Because people know that only soldiers in the army can take the orders of their superiors as seriously as their lives and complete them. In their minds, subordinates should obey their superiors unconditionally. Military orders are like mountains, and with soldiers, everything can be accomplished.
The oxidation and decarburization phases consumed a great deal of Feng Yuheng's energy. She sat in front of the furnace with a swollen and painful abdomen. Her little face was reflected by the fire, which was very beautiful. But no one had the energy to appreciate it. Even Xuan Tianming was staring at the furnace. The steelmaking steps became more and more difficult as time went on. It was very likely that the whole process would fail at the last step, which was a result he absolutely did not want to see.
Finally, the time had come for this furnace to be opened. Feng Yuheng raised his hand to the soldier pulling the bellows and shouted, "Stop!"
The bellows stopped and the furnace started. She took out the molten steel from the furnace after the melting period and placed it on the ground. She then scooped up a little with a small spoon and looked at it for a long time, but shook her head. "The heating is uneven, and the decarbonization amount is less than 0.1%. Try again!"
No one was discouraged, because with the experience of the previous times, everyone knew that it was impossible to succeed in one go. The more time passed, the harder it would be. Eight or ten attempts would be too little, and it might even take eight or ten days.
However, things are sometimes like this, the more hope you have for it, the more likely it is to fail. On the contrary, if you don't care or think it will definitely not work, it is more likely to succeed.
Just like the oxidation and decarburization period, although she did not find this stage too difficult, she definitely did not expect to succeed in the second batch. When her spoon scooped up the molten steel, the familiar feel, color, and smell came to her face. She was ecstatic and looked at Xuan Tianming in disbelief: "Success! The decarburization of this molten steel has reached at least 0.3%! Xuan Tianming, this is top-quality!"
This sentence gave Xuan Tianming and the more than one hundred soldiers around him goosebumps. The excitement could no longer be expressed in words. People were breathing heavily, with nowhere to vent their excitement. Some even knelt down.
Feng Yuheng decided to continue to open the furnace in one go, and finally after connecting thirty-six furnaces, he produced twenty-eight finished products.
Xuan Tianming was very happy, and he grabbed her hand and said, "This is a good sign. At least the morale of the soldiers has been boosted. As long as the morale is there, the aura will be there, and our steel will surely be refined smoothly."
She naturally understood this, but the next stage was the refining stage, which did not require such a large bellows. The furnace in the Xutian Cave could do it. So she suggested: "Go into the cave to work. The refining stage is a long process. It does not require many people, but it requires extreme care. It is best for the two of us to complete it, and... it is not convenient for me to be outside for a long time."
Xuan Tianming understood what she meant, and went to explain things to the soldiers. Then the two of them returned to Xutian Cave.
Feng Yuheng then announced that the two of them would be in seclusion. During the seclusion period, they would not see anyone except the soldiers who delivered meals, and would never step out of the Xutian Cave. All military affairs would be handled by the commanders of the small camps until Qian Li came back to take over.
People thought that even if they were in seclusion, they would come out after ten days or so. But they didn't expect that the years and months in the smelting ground would blur, spring and summer would alternate, and when Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianming finally walked out of the Xutian Cave, it was already one hundred and eight days later...
