Lord...Lord, how did you do this?!

An old furnace, after some fiddling by the lord, was able to melt iron blocks into molten iron. If he told this, no one would believe it.

Gudern only smiled faintly at Buck's question, did not respond, and ordered the apprentice.

Stop adding fuel and blowing air, take out the crucible and take a look.

The busy apprentice glanced at the master, and after receiving permission from his eyes, he took out the red-hot crucible from the furnace with iron tongs.

Buck on the side took out a template from somewhere, threw it on the ground, and said.

Pour it in and try it.

The young apprentice did not hesitate and poured all the molten iron into the mold decisively.

The red molten iron drew a dazzling orange line in the air, and the surrounding air was also faintly distorted under the high temperature.

But without the heating of the furnace, the temperature of the molten iron itself quickly dropped and was reshaped in the mold.

After the temperature cooled to a certain level, the apprentice sprinkled some water on the surface of the iron ingot to further cool it down.

As the water on the surface no longer evaporates, remove the entire iron ingot and throw it into the bucket.

After the bubbles in the bucket stopped, I fished it out and touched it. It was still warm, but I could touch it.

After it was handed over to the master, Buck couldn't help but touch and carefully observe the iron ingot.

After the purification of the molten iron, all the impurities contained in the original iron block have been removed. The silver-white metallic luster can illustrate how pure the iron block is.

This...this, this is a miracle!

At this moment, Buck was already starting to speak a little incoherently. As a blacksmith, he also really wanted to create a perfect iron ingot from his own hands.

But the technology is not enough, and there has been no progress after so many years of trying, but the lord can just come and hammer it out?

He looked at the Lord with expectation, hoping to get an answer, but unfortunately Gudern still had no intention of explaining.

Gooden pointed to the manganese ore outside the door and said, Take those soft ores and refine them with charcoal.

With the order of the lord, the apprentice selects the manganese ore that meets the requirements from the cart, crushes it and fills it into the crucible for quenching with charcoal.

As the furnace is tempered by the high-temperature fire, the manganese ore in the crucible also begins to be stripped of impurities bit by bit.

After the impurities were stripped away by the intense fire, the manganese began to react with the mixed charcoal, and a hint of gray metallic luster began to appear in the crucible.

Then more gray-white metal continued to appear in the crucible, slowly condensing together.

The orange flames of the furnace were a bit dazzling to stare at for a long time, and Gudern only checked from time to time. Only when he was sure that the crucible was almost cooked, did he stop and take out the manganese ore.

From about two to three kilograms of pyrolusite, the manganese finally refined is about as much as one and a half fists, and the specific weight is only less than one kilogram after weighing it.

Gudern doesn't care about that little bit of manganese. This refining is just experimental.

After silently calculating the proportions, Gooden asked Buck.

Do you have any iron ingots here? They cost about fourteen and a half pounds.

Yes, Pansy, go quickly.

Although he didn't know what the lord was going to do, Buck felt vaguely in his heart that he seemed to be witnessing some kind of history.

As Pansy brought the iron ingots, Gudern put them all into the crucible and refined them into molten iron.

The manganese that was originally refined was placed aside for manual slag removal.

After all, the purification is not 100%, and there will still be some residue left. In order to ensure the success of the forging of manganese steel, it is necessary to be more careful.

After all the 6.6 kilograms of iron ingots were turned into molten iron, Gooden had people drop in manganese for fusion.

The melting point of solid metal manganese is much lower than that of iron. After being placed in the crucible, it is immediately melted and fused into the molten iron.

At this time, the pot of molten iron in the crucible should be called manganese molten steel.

After it was poured out and cooled, a manganese steel ingot was born in a different world.

Touching the thick black gray steel ingot, Buck's eyes were full of curiosity.

Lord, what is this? It seems that the iron ingot is a little different.

This is called high manganese steel. This thing is much more powerful than steel. It is the foundation of the new world and something that can change the world.

This time Gooden did answer Buck's question, but the other party obviously didn't believe it.

It's not like I've never made steel before. It's a little harder and more durable than iron.

Chapter 22: Taking advantage of others? Go out and turn left to go to the pub

Faced with Buck's question, Gooden just smiled and did not respond.

Naturally, the performance of manganese steel ingots cannot be seen now, but if it is made into a finished product and compared, you will naturally see its amazing performance.

However, Gooden did not intend to show the performance of this manganese steel ingot in advance. After all, the mine itself was not yet fully capable of eating it.

Exposing the performance of manganese steel ingots in advance will only cause trouble. As the old saying goes, making a fortune silently is the right development path.

Gudern took a hammer from the side and struck the manganese steel ingot twice. If it was sure that it was not broken, it was considered a successful smelting.

I'll take the steel ingot first, and leave the ore on the cart to you to help refine it. I'll let Old Joseph pay for it.

You saw the refining method just now. After refining, remember to keep it in a dry and ventilated place. I will send someone to pick it up.

Okay, Lord, Buck nodded, then glanced at the modified furnace and asked a little embarrassedly.

Also, Lord, after these minerals are refined, can you, uh... borrow the furnace?

Buck said that he was a little embarrassed after all. After all, the furnace was already considered the property of the lord.

I took the liberty to borrow it because I was curious about this thing. How did it break through the temperature limit?

No problem, as long as I complete my tasks first, you will be responsible for the rest of the assignments.

Gudern was not stingy and directly lent it to the blacksmith.

Thank you Lord Lord!

Not getting scolded, Buck quickly thanked him.

Gudern waved his hand casually, and then handed the manganese steel ingot to the accompanying soldier to take back to the castle, while he went to the carpenter to customize some chopsticks.

When we had a banquet yesterday, he wanted to get a pair of chopsticks. It was a bit weird to eat with a knife, fork and spoon.

But it’s too late to build it ready-made, so we can only wait until today to arrange it.

When I came to the carpenter's shop, I told him my requirements one by one, and the other party said it was simple. It didn't take a while to build several pairs of chopsticks.

As for matters like payment, Gudern said that Old Joseph would come later.

Anyway, as a lord, it is not a big deal to get a small account on credit.

After returning to the castle, Gudern did not immediately test the manganese steel ingots, but directly plunged into the kitchen.

Although the food from another world is not that unpalatable, the taste is bland and really does not suit Gudern's appetite.

And he couldn't stand the constant cycle of bread, vegetable soup, and stewed meat.

It's better to teach these maids now and let them learn the essence of Chinese cuisine, so that they don't need to do it themselves in the future.

In the kitchen, Gudern was asking everyone to knead some dough together, planning to make noodles for lunch, and then use the excess to make dumplings, steamed buns and other foods.

The process of kneading flour is a daily routine for a maid, and it was arranged and completed in a short time.

But the next technique Master Gooden taught them was a bit novel. They simply spread lard on the dough, and then began to knead and stretch it.

Then pull the head and tail together and stretch again. Repeat this, and soon the originally thick and long dough has turned into slender noodles.

The maids who gathered around to watch were all amazed.

Master, how do you do this? You can make such a thin dough stretch so long without stopping...

Master, how do you bake it when it's stretched like this?

Hey, you don't understand. The young master is making a new dish, just like the one from last night!

Although the chirping of the maids was a bit noisy, Gudern was not disgusted.

This is the correct life of a noble from another world!

After briefly teaching some ramen techniques, Gudern assigned some people to start rolling out the dough to prepare dumplings.

The skin shouldn't be too thick, nor too thin, just about this way. Don't forget to sprinkle a layer of cornstarch when stacking them together to prevent them from sticking together...

While Gudern was teaching everyone how to roll dough, a maid suddenly came to the kitchen to report.

Master, the head of the Charleson family, Baron Gergill, is here to visit. He is waiting for you in the living room. The old butler is receiving you.

Listening to this long list of names, Gooden was stunned. What was Chief Charlieson doing here?

Could it be that they are still here to collect debts?

Wei Wei thought for a moment and nodded.

I understand, you can continue to entertain. I will come over later.

After the maid who came to inform conveyed the news, she returned to the living room to entertain.

Just finish this pile of noodles. If you roll out the dough, take your time and don't worry. Leave this pile of dough here and don't touch it. I'll make arrangements when I get back.

Okay, Master!

The four maids spoke at the same time and responded crisply.

Gooden nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Erin.

If I don't come back later, remember to prepare the side dishes in advance.

Yeah. Erin nodded, indicating that she understood.

After arranging things in the kitchen, Gooden did not go directly to the meeting. Instead, he washed off the dust on his body before moving to the living room.

Baron Gergil, do you have anything important to say to me in person?

Entering the living room, Gooden asked the other party loudly, but without showing much expression on his face, he strode towards his seat.

Where, Master Gudern was attacked some time ago. I originally wanted to come and visit him in person.
