What Zhao Yuan said is actually much more than the current technology. For example, after-installation of shells, this technology does not exist now and can be regarded as a relatively advanced technology. If the venting medicine is stored in the form of a drug pack, the speed of artillery firing will greatly increase.

Of course, Zhao Yuan was worried that they would not be able to accept more technology for the time being, so he had not told them the suggestions on shells yet. After all, science and technology are still limited at this time, and the production process is also very limited. Even if they were told some things, they would not be able to make them.

Therefore, these secrets must not be leaked in the slightest, especially the production process. At this time, the equipment did not have so-called high-tech.

Mr. Liu was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I can agree to this!"

"very good!"

Zhao Yuan praised, "In addition, the fewer people you must know about some key things, the better."

Mr. Liu nodded and said, "The best way to use steel for the barrel of the new artillery is to use steel according to the adults, so we decided to start with steel making, and hope that the adults can prepare more people to ensure speed," he said.

You should know that forging steel at this time mainly depends on manpower, so enough manpower is the key to steelmaking.

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "I can arrange this! Just do my best to explain things with peace of mind."

…………

After Mr. Liu left, Qian Xuedao said: "You are still planning to increase the number of personnel? This place is only so big. If you continue to increase the number of personnel, it will be somewhat unacceptable."

Zhao Yuan said: "If you can't accommodate it, you must find a way. The ship is the key, and the cannons on the ship are also the key. Without the gun ship, you will be a toothless wolf. Do we encounter danger at sea and the enemies we encounter are just running away?"

Qian Xue snorted coldly and said, "When the time comes, our ship is full of people, who dares to come?"

Zhao Yuan couldn't help but shook his head slightly and said, "It's full of people, sir, I would like to ask, how many people do you call full of people? One hundred people, or hundreds, or densely packed like chickens in the chicken farm, all squeezed in a boat?"

As he said that, Zhao Yuan pointed to the sketch of the boat on the wall and said, "How many people are needed on each boat? It must be carefully calculated. First of all, the ship is the best way to carry fresh water and food. This is one of them. How many people can consume for many days, especially fresh water. If there is no fresh water at the sea, it is equivalent to suicide. After determining the number of people, these people must include sailors who can make the ship run normally. In addition, we also have artillery on the ship, how many people operate each artillery and how many people support it. The rest is to use other personnel to install people on the ship. It is not just just to just load people on the ship."

Zhao Yuan said with a slight pause. Qianxue was stunned when he heard it. To be honest, she had never touched these before. Naturally, she didn't know that in her eyes, the deck was densely packed with people from the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei, so who dared to get close?

Zhao Yuan stopped for a moment and said, "Apart from that, who dares to come? The Japanese pirates dare to come. They dare to go deep into our territory. Do they dare to attack several ships in your court? Then they will be chasing us like an annoying hyenas, knowing that we are physically and mentally exhausted, and then they will choose to eat us piece by piece."

Standing slightly straightened, Zhao Yuan then said, "Sir Qian, we are facing a joke now, please be careful!"

Qian Xue's face darkened and she said, "Yang Qianhu means that this official is not cautious enough!"

Zhao Yuan said: "Yes, it's really not cautious enough. I don't know why Dongchang sent you here. At least I think that the people sent at least understand more or less about the things in the shipbuilding or Shenji Camp. If they don't understand, then the layman will be commanded by an insider. If Dongchang sent you just as a supervisor, you can report the tension here every day in truth without hiding it. If you understand, then please ask some more professional questions, otherwise you will be laughed at by others!"

Qian Xue was so angry that her face turned pale and said, "So what Lord Yang means is that I don't know anything, but I was sent by the East Factory to supervise?"

Zhao Yuan asked back: "Isn't it? If not, I don't know if Master Qian can give some reasonable suggestions, at least let me know that you are not a decoration."

Zhao Yuan's crackling words made Qian Xue very angry. When his mind became hot, he drew his sword with his backhand and stabbed him directly at Zhao Yuan.

However, she felt a flash of cold light in front of her eyes, and a huge shock came from her hand. The Shuriken seemed to be unable to hold it firmly. She worked hard to keep her luck. However, just now she stabilized her, she found that the opponent's sword was only an inch away from her neck, and her own sword was only half.

In other words, the moment he drew his sword, the opponent had already completed the series of actions of drawing the sword, cutting off the sword in his hand, and pointing the sword at his neck.

He was so fast that he didn't see the other person's movements clearly.

Zhao Yuan took back his sword and said, "If your skills are too poor, don't draw the sword in front of others easily, as it will be easy to die!"

After saying that, he snorted coldly, then walked outside the house, leaving Qian Xue alone inside the house.

After all, the other party is a girl. Zhao Yuan didn't want to be too fierce to her at first, but the situation is different now. He must ensure that every plan he has here is implemented smoothly. If he understands this industry, it is naturally best. If he can adopt it after discussion, then he will adopt it. But the key is that he is afraid that he will not understand and will interfere, which will affect the overall choice.

As for why the Dongchang sent a woman to supervise, Zhao Yuan didn't know this, and he didn't want to know it now, but since you are here, you can just act as the Dongchang's eye and report the situation here to the Dongchang honestly, just like Wang Ying!

This is why Zhao Yuan asked the rest of Yu Lang to set up defenses on the mountain and handed over the defense here to the Dongchang. Instead of asking where they secretly, it is better to let them keep an eye on it. Once the confidentiality leak occurs, both parties will not shirk responsibility. Since the Dongchang is the inside of the person who is in charge, no matter how the secret is leaked from the inside, your Dongchang will have a greater responsibility.

Wang Ying is not a fool, and he knows this very well in his heart.

After leaving the house, Zhao Yuan went straight to the temporary resettlement site of the blacksmiths. At this moment, they were already building tents and the house they lived in had not been built yet.

Seeing Zhao Yuan coming, Mr. Liu welcomed him and said, "Mr. Qianhu, the young man has asked them. Everyone is willing to stay. Be stricter. The only hope is that if you want to write a letter to your family, please be more comfortable."

Zhao Yuan thought for a while and said, "The letter can be written, but there is one thing that all the contents of the letter must be read."

At this time, it was like writing a letter with a message. No one felt that there was any privacy or something. Besides, Zhao Yuan did not discuss it with them, but ordered it, and there was no room for bargaining.

Mr. Liu said: "This is fine. In addition, the place is a bit narrow when it comes to the location selection?"

Zhao Yuan said: "When you were not here, I had already thought about this issue carefully, and finally decided that this position is the most suitable one. Look..."

As he said that, he pointed and said, "The beach in front of him looks relatively empty now, but there may be several boats built here at the same time in the future. When the materials are piled up like mountains, there will be no unnecessary places at all! Secondly, the place you have chosen is a backer. In addition, I also plan to build a city wall in front. On the one hand, the troops can be deployed to ensure safety here. On the other hand, this city wall can also block the sea breeze, so that even if it encounters strong winds and waves, it will not affect it. In addition, the city wall also has another function, that is, as the test place for your artillery."

According to Zhao Yuan's idea, the place where the people of Shenji Camp stays is an arsenal, and the bearers develop and manufacture the artillery and rockets required on the ship. Therefore, they must be in a highly confidential state. This mountain is a wall with the Jinyiwei guards guarding them. A city wall will be built in a place facing the sea. On the one hand, the city wall is to block the sea breeze, and on the other hand, it can also be used as a test site. Whether the artillery can be used can be used directly, just pull it on it and fire it in the sea. After all, there is no suitable shooting range nearby. In addition, a temporary dock can be built here. In the future, the materials on the Shenji Camp can be transported directly here without transporting it from outside.

In addition, a city wall will be built in the future, which will directly isolate the people of Shenji Camp from other ship workers to prevent anyone from infiltration.

After all, Mr. Liu and others came from Shenji Camp. They were very strict and had very clear disciplines in Shenji Camp before. In addition, the families of these Shenji Camp will be in the capital and then placed together. Shenji Camp is under the Jinyiwei, and there will be guarding the Jinyiwei. In other words, if someone dares to reveal anything, he can run away, but his family will not be able to run away. To be honest, their family will be hostages.

Even now that they have come here, their families are still in the capital, so they are very aware of the consequences of the leak, and no one dares to challenge the ruthlessness and patience of the Jinyiwei easily.

But those ship workers are different. Now the imperial court does not have its own shipyard. These ship workers come from all over the world, and they have all their backgrounds, and how long does it take. The situation is urgent, and no one has enough time to investigate the background of these people. It is very likely that there are mixed works, no matter which aspects of the works come from.

Therefore, they must be completely isolated from the cannons. The technology or drawings of the ship are easily leaked. Zhao Yuan also knows that it is impossible to control this, but with the ship without the cannon, this ship is a toothless wolf.

Mr. Liu heard this and said, "It's better for the arrangements!"

Zhao Yuan said: "How to plan in detail, where to make iron and steel, and how to arrange it here, I will leave it to you. Then, look at what you can do now, so let everyone work hard first and do what they can do first. If there is any need, you can tell Wang Baihu of the East Factory. If there is no feedback on the Baihu where there is no such thing, just tell this thousand households."

"yes!"

Mr. Liu agreed.

With nearly 200 people from Shenji Camp joined, the place became lively. In terms of construction, Zhao Yuan immediately adjusted the deployment of the craftsmen who were originally built here and limited the construction of the houses they needed. As for the city wall, it can only be said that in the later stage, they must ensure that their accommodation and workshops are built first.

For Zhao Yuan, time is everything. The two ships built by Xie Yunlou did not design artillery at first, largely because Xie Yunlou's ship was not equipped with artillery. Of course, for him, there was no need for him. What impressed him the most was that he directly divided other people's ships into two with one sword. The ship where the master was located was facing Japanese pirates who also had no artillery, so no one dared to get close to him.

But Liu Zhiqing and the others are different, so they must be equipped with cannons. After the drawings are completely released, they will immediately send someone to send them and they will arrange for the person to bear the burden to make them.

In addition, a large number of big men also arrived here quickly. Their mission was to make real irons. In the future, the gun barrels were made of machinery in the era of mechanization. Naturally, the speed was fast and the quality could be guaranteed. At this time, it was only possible to rely on people. Mr. Liu did not know what Zhao Yuan had made for the new cannon. After arriving, Zhao Yuan said that it would require a lot of people.

For Zhu Houcon, this was related to his long life. Dongchang and Jinyiwei both supported him. Yan Song and his son, who were deeply favored by the emperor, naturally would not stop the emperor at all times. Therefore, the materials and manpower needed here were constantly mobilized. Considering that the ship workers were still looking forward to the situation, the people from the Shenji Camp were given priority. So, the Shenji Camp was located in the area where the Shenji Camp was located, and not long after, there was a sound of beating sound.

What they had to do first were several iron rods. These iron rods must be round enough and the size must be consistent. When processing the gun barrel, these iron rods must be put in and then repeatedly beat them to ensure that the gun barrel is compact. Repeated beating can also discharge other impurities in the gun barrel, making the gun barrel more compact.

In addition, at this time, the shells are still in a ball shape, slightly smaller than the barrel, which means that the seal is not tight, which greatly reduces the range and accuracy of the artillery. One of the big reasons is that there is no rifle inside the barrel.
