Quan Family Forging Factory

Immediately, Quan Yi ordered the ships to return to port.

An hour later, the steamship, returning at full speed, arrived back at Quan Family Wharf.

Two hours, two hundred kilometers.

Quan Yi even checked the operation of the Steam Engine.

The Metal-attribute forged with the Ultimate Fire Soul Power far exceeded Quan Yi's imagination.

An ordinary person could touch the outer wall of the boiler without getting burned.

Based on its current performance, Quan Yi judged that the Steam Engine should be able to run continuously for a week without any problems.

When the steamship was perfectly moored in its berth inside the Shipyard, the many craftsmen who had been standing there rose to greet it.

They looked expectantly at the people disembarking from the ship.

Most of the people here are shipwrights who participated in the design of steamships.

The vast majority of them were Carpenter Families affiliated with the Quan Family.

When the Quan Family Shipyard was established, these Carpenter Families became the most suitable candidates.

It was the addition of these excellent carpenters that enabled Quan Family Shipyard to develop rapidly to its current state.

They remained there, waiting for Quan Yi others.

However, contrary to their expectations, Quan Yi and the others reacted too calmly.

In fact, he left the Shipyard immediately after disembarking.

While they were wondering, Jiang Jun relayed the news that he had been dismissed from his post.

These words were like a stone thrown into a still lake.

The shipwright, who had originally planned to celebrate, suddenly felt uneasy.

They were clearly aware of the seriousness of the situation.

Jiang Jun then spoke up, "Fortunately, the Young Family Head is merciful and has shown leniency this time for our past hardships. However, we will never have such good fortune again."

I hope you will all cherish this opportunity.

After saying this, Jiang Jun turned and left.

He has done more than enough for these people; he has no time to talk to them now.

He had more important things to do, so he immediately went to process the transfer to a new post.

Then they began to study Iron Ship.

Through this incident, he clarified his position and understood his expertise.

Despite lacking any talent for cultivation, he was able to establish himself in the Quan Family entirely because of his superior shipbuilding skills.

Without the technology, he is nothing to the Quan Family.

The respect the Quan Family showed him made his heart waver.

Now, after being given Quan Yi, he has regained his normal composure.

With this mindset, he carefully reviewed Quan Yi's design drawings again and discovered things he hadn't noticed before.

"It seems that I am still more suited to the position of researcher."

Jiang Jun secretly mocked himself.

Meanwhile, Quan Yi group arrived at the Quan Family's Forging Factory.

The Forging Factory is located not far from the Shipyard.

However, its area is in no way inferior to that of Shipyard.

However, despite its large size, the Forging Factory was surrounded by armed guards.

You should know that Shipyard don't have this kind of treatment yet.

Upon entering the spacious Forging Room, the first thing that catches the eye is a collection of strangely shaped instruments.

These are all specially made Machine Tool.

Beyond these Machine Tool, inside the Forging Factory, there are dozens of huge circular iron furnaces.

At the bottom of these iron stoves, bonfires as tall as two people were lit.

This is Blast Furnace, Divine Artifact of efficiency for the Quan Family in iron and steel smelting.

At the same time, it is also one of the Quan Family's top secrets.

With this Blast Furnace, the Quan Family's efficiency in refining iron blocks was greatly improved.

They simply need to load iron ore, coke, limestone, and other materials into the furnace from the top in the correct proportions. The high temperature inside and the hot air blown in will remove impurities from the iron ore and refine it into purer iron.

Just then, when Quan Yi group came to inspect, one of the Blast Furnace had already completed its task.

Under the Blacksmith's operation, two openings at different heights were opened at the bottom of the Blast Furnace.

In an instant, two streams of dark red liquid gushed out from two directions.

One is molten iron that has been successfully refined.

The other was an even darker liquid of slag.

This process is precisely the iron tapping and slag removal procedure of Blast Furnace.

This process allows the high temperature inside the Blast Furnace to be released instantly.

The temperature inside the Forging Factory instantly rose by several degrees.

The molten iron, hot as it was, flowed slowly along a specific channel to a large Molten Iron Tank, the bottom of Molten Iron Tank was fitted with four enormous wheels.

Meanwhile, this enormous Molten Iron Tank Car was placed on specific railway tracks.

With the help of the railway tracks, several men easily pushed away the Molten Iron Tank, which weighed tons.

Quan Yue's explanation, some of this molten iron will be completely solidified and then taken by the Forgemaster for forging.

The other part will be directly cast into parts.

"Actually, I think we can mount the Steam Engine on the car that transports molten iron, so that we can carry more molten iron."

Quan Yue looked at the manual pushing of the Molten Iron Tank Car and immediately felt that it was too inefficient.

"Haha, my father's thoughts coincide with my own."

In fact, we could even lay longer Iron Rail and place more Steam Train on Iron Rail.

This will significantly expand our transportation capacity.

Quan Yue's idea was actually based on his previous life's concept of Iron Rail and trains.

The Iron Rail within the Iron Forging Factory, though only intended for the convenient transport of molten iron, already possessed a rudimentary form.

After inspecting the Blast Furnace, Quan Yi, led by Quan Yue, arrived at the Giant Steam Forging Hammer device located in the center.

Driven by steam power, the massive vertical iron column is undergoing reciprocating motion.

Meanwhile, at the bottom of the iron pillar, people are pushing slightly solidified Pig Iron between the giant Anvil and the forging hammer.

The iron block, as tall as a person, was instantly shattered by a quarter of its length under the heavy blow of the Giant Steam Forging Hammer.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

A soul-stirring shock echoed throughout the spacious arena.

A block of iron weighing thousands of kilograms is rapidly Purification through repeated hammering.

Pig Iron is refined into Wrought Iron in less than a minute.

In the following period, Wrought Iron rapidly transformed into Refined Iron, and then into Iron Essence.

However, less than half an hour had passed.

You should know that such a piece of Iron Essence can be sold for tens of thousands of Gold Soul Coin in the outside world.

This gives a glimpse into the wealth controlled by the Quan Family.

However, Quan Yi's visit to the Iron Forging Factory was not just for admiring the Forging Factory.

"Father, please order them to pause this forging process."

I'd like to borrow this large Anvil for a moment.

Quan Yue waved his hand, stopping the Blacksmith in their work.

At the same time, at Quan Yi's instruction, Quan Yue also asked the Blacksmith around him to leave.

Once the Blacksmith was gone, Quan Yue asked curiously, "Xiao Yi, what are you doing?"

Quan Yi smiled calmly and said, "I plan to teach you two the Seventy-Two Hit Combo technique that I have mastered."

Quan Li and Quan Yue's eyes lit up immediately.

They had long wanted to learn Quan Yi's combo techniques.

Quan Yi slowly walked up to a piece of completely solidified Pig Iron.

He stretched out his right hand, which was now covered with a red and black Gauntlet.

At the same time, the red patterns on the Gauntlet surged, and a huge dragon claw suddenly emerged from Quan Yi's arm. The dragon claw grabbed the Pig Iron and scorched Pig Iron with flames from its palm.
