Chen Mu felt that this kind of thing was useless no matter how he persuaded Yang Yinglong.

The foundation of our ancestors was destroyed, and it would be difficult for anyone to put it on. If Yang Yinglong had only three coins of gunpowder, he would definitely be killed by a gun when he caught Yang Zhaolong.

If it is six cents, kill Yang Zhaolong first and then himself.

So Chen Mu didn't want to persuade him, he just wanted his brother-in-law to look forward in the right direction.

For example... Xinming has greater development than Bozhou.

Chen Mu didn't know about other developments, and he didn't plan to let his brother-in-law make money with kangaroos, so there was only steel.

However, when Yang Zhaolong answered his question, the answer almost made him so angry that he dug his gun and killed Yang Zhaolong - he asked Xinming Steel's daily output was several thousand kilograms.

This is an approximate number. He wants to hear answers of tens of thousands of kilograms or even more to make himself happy.

It is not an exaggeration to have tens of thousands of pounds. In this era, people cannot accurately understand the composition changes of steel and iron using metallography, but this does not prevent people from being familiar with their physical properties.

In this context, the "steel" mentioned by Chen Mu is both cooked iron and steel.

The annual output of the taxable province in Guangdong is more than 10 million kilograms. Due to the production scale, living standards, and management model restrictions brought by the times, all furnaces only burn more than a hundred days a year. Moreover, this is the taxable reverse, and Chen Mu has no way to know the real output.

As long as he knew, he had led troops to suppress the Qianhu District, Qingyuanwei, Qingcheng, and Lao Bai agreed that he would be the Qianhu District, and he would be his own control. As a result, Wu Guifang transferred him to the Huang Tieshan Mountain in Xiangshan, and he would definitely not pay taxes.

As a result, Yang Zhaolong, the little bastard, stammered: "Three, thirty or forty kilograms?"

With such a big new light, the annual output is not as good as the blast furnace in Nanyang Weigang for two days?

Even if you don’t have tens of thousands of pounds or thousands of pounds, these thirty or forty pounds are too careless, right?

But Chen Mu later thought that even if Yang Zhaolong was a fool, Yang Zhaolong, the iron ore there, was not in charge of it, so Li Hualong would not be confused either. There must be a reason for such a low yield.

There is indeed a reason. They discovered iron ore with huge reserves and tried to mine them. However, the vein with the largest reserves is in the desert, with no forests and trees around it. The nearest forest farm is 140 miles away. There are iron ore on the coast, but it is the iron sand with very little mining. The output Yang Zhaolong mentioned is the output of a Miao village nearby.

The old blacksmith used the method of making steel by 100 steel, carburizing, forging and decarbonizing, and buried in the soil for a month; took it out and then carburizing, and forging and decarbonizing... Repeat several times, and after several months, this process was finally completed. A piece of steel that can be used for forging was obtained.

Li Hualong did not build a large iron factory in Xinming. While building roads, he handed over mules and horses to the court, and encouraged Fujian and Guangxi merchants who were responsible for the mines in Xinming to work hard to mine.

Fortunately, Xinming's iron ore composition is much better than many sulfhydryl iron in the middle of the country. So I simply saved up for ten days and half a month and sent a fleet to bring the inventory back to Nanyang Vail Port. This is a relatively cost-saving approach in the short term.

Now there are four flag troops of the Ministry of Households who specialize in protecting this freight route, transporting more than 120,000 kilograms of iron ore and coal every month.

Without good road transport conditions and insufficient cars and horses, even if you find a huge mineral deposit, it will be useless.

Chen Mu also believes that Li Hualong's decision was correct, and using the limited funds in his hand to build roads in the short term is more cost-effective than building an iron smelting plant.

Otherwise, with an iron smelting plant, it would be really uncomfortable if the iron ore transportation conditions could not keep up with the output.

The problem arises to solve it. In Chen Mu's opinion, roads, livestock, and ironworks are not a problem for Yang Yinglong.

The Yellow River that has been broken thousands of times will not be difficult for the people of China in Chi County. What is the purpose of building a road that costs hundreds of miles long?

Chen Mu not only wanted to worship Yang Yinglong for data, but also painted a big cake for him. Yang Duan, the ancestor of the Yang family, led his army to Bozhou to suppress the rebellion and was appointed as the envoy of Xuanwei of Bozhou. It has been seven hundred years since then. Now Yang Yinglong led the army and civilians to Xinming to open up the new Ming Dynasty and serve as the envoy of Xuanwei of the North, and obtained a broader land. If he could gain a foothold, wouldn’t he inherit the virtues of his ancestors and set a precedent for future generations?

Regardless of whether Chen Mu's new can persuade Yang Yinglong, who is far away in Xinming, after reading the letter, Yang Zhaolong's heart was put back in his stomach and steadily studied North Asia's intelligence and sea and land geography.

Chen Mu was also very happy. The Wanshou Festival, which was always victorious in the seventh year of Wanli, was extremely successful. More than 200 indigenous tribes in Asia, and 323 leaders came to the alliance to attend the ceremony and offered blessings to the emperor far away in Beijing.

To commemorate this, he specially asked the craftsmen of the stone factory to carve a huge stone tablet that was nine feet tall, recording the first time the Asian leader attended the Wanbao Festival, and inscribed the names of all the attendees in the north. He also gave all the Chinese names to all the leaders who came to attend the ceremony, some were transliterated, some were translated, and some were just starting out.

The stone tablet is signed, Christmas on the fourth day of the ninth month of Jimao, Wanli.

Chen Mu felt that this signature was fine.

A group of colleagues and brothers took this opportunity to gather together, and they could not help but get drunk, and their affairs became more and more busy after sobering up.

The gifts given to the emperor must be loaded in a hurry. If you don’t load them quickly, it will be bad if you miss the return time. What’s more, if you don’t make a clearance of the warehouse, the saltpeter on Shao Tingda’s ship is still waiting to be put into the warehouse.

Deng Zilong brought information from Panama, Brazil and Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Venezuela in the Governor General of Peru. This time, he and Bai Yuanjie and Shao Tingda got together. The three of them had been talking about each other since they met, and there were really endless topics to talk about.

All topics ultimately pointed to Peru, occupied by Spain. At this moment, Chen Mu felt that these three people were more like war dealers than him.

After talking, Shao Tingda said, "Mapuche's Lautaro was trained in my place. He wanted to liberate the suffering people. He would raise his arms and call him that there would be followers. It was just because the military armor was insufficient. Our Ming Dynasty's standard military armor could not be given to him. The Western military armor in Chile was pitifully few."

"You always win!"

Bai Yuanjie was so tired that he thought that fighting against the French and Yi on the east coast of North Asia would allow him to move his muscles, but he didn't know that the French were pitifully weak. He just read the war report and the merchants who came back from the north brought back the news that the war had already been completed.

At this moment, when he heard the war, he immediately patted the table with his palm and said, "Chang Shengyou, Western-made mail, cotton armor, spear, and convex gun, Hai Gong... make a note?"

Hai Rui, who was jealous of evil, looked at the steamed fish in the plate on the plan in front of him with his eyes hanging down, and replied with a long breath: "Yeah..."

Hai Rui, who was jealous of evil, had long been disgusted with the Spanish. It was really that war was not controlled by him, just like Chen Mu's food, grass, money and taxes on money and taxes were his hands. War was Chen Mu's duty, and no one had the right to intervene, so he kept enduring it.

"Then Deng let me out information. Panama, Costa Rica and Colombia, it feels so uncomfortable to hold me in the middle. I will knock them out. I recommend attacking Colombia in the south. I am not familiar with the Western Governor, so I ignore them when they ask me to send troops."

Deng Zilong said, raising his hand and lit a point in the teacup. He blinked his eyes and drew a sketch on the table, saying, "The tribe over there is called Musica, and the bitter Western people have been enslaved for a long time... By the way, in addition, I have several Spanish ships seized in Panama."

"Ahem!"

Chen Mu cleared his throat at the head, and all four of them, including Hai Rui, looked over and laughed at them. Look at me, I look at you, and finally Shao Tingda said, "Master, it's rare to have such an opportunity, don't you take the opportunity to hit them?"

Chen Mu shook his head with his lips and raised his hand to sweep over the people: "Your attitude is wrong. Such a thing has nothing to do with my Daming."

"Even if the army is successful, is the land from the Ming Dynasty?" Chen Mu curled his lips contemptuously, looked at the few people for a long time before suddenly tilting his head and smiling: "Of course it is!"

"I mean don't give them Spanish ships. The Aboriginals have never won the naval battle. The West Coast is apart from the Spanish themselves, and we have Spanish ships in our hands."
