Reborn as a fiend statue

Yu Yi said in surprise: "Isn't there a blast furnace for steelmaking in the Materials Department? How could the steel produced fail to meet the requirements?"

The old man explained: "Master Yu doesn't know something. The steel produced by the Materials Department is too brittle and can break easily."

Yu Yi finally understood what was going on.

Steel is a general term for iron-carbon alloys with a mass percentage of carbon between 0.02% and 2.11%.

Carbon is the most important factor that determines the mechanical properties of steel. As the carbon content increases, the hardness increases, and the plasticity and toughness decrease.

When the carbon content is <0.77%, the strength increases as the carbon content increases, but when the carbon content is >1.0%, the strength decreases instead.

Carbon steel can be divided into three types according to its carbon content, namely:

The carbon content of low carbon steel is ≤0.25%, the carbon content of medium carbon steel is 0.25%-0.60%, and the carbon content of high carbon steel is >0.60%.

If the steel is too brittle, the carbon content must be too high, causing the steel to be hard enough but lack toughness.

Yu Yi told everything he knew about steelmaking.

Yuan Li suddenly realized: "So that's it. I immediately ordered people to improve the steel-making technology."

Yu Yi said with a serious expression: "Xiao Yuan, you will personally supervise this matter. The steelmaking industry of the Materials Department is a top priority and cannot be careless at all.

Our various projects require the use of a large amount of steel.

If we fail to pass the test just now, engineering problems will easily occur, and then not just one or two people will be killed or injured."

Yuanli looked serious and said: "Brother Yu, don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter."

When Yu Yi left the scientific research department, he took a steam engine with him.

He went to the weapons foundry department that Zarik was in charge of again.

The weapons foundry was surrounded by a wall and heavily guarded. No outsiders were allowed to approach.

Without orders from senior officials such as Yu Yi, if someone breaks in by force, the guards can execute the intruder on the spot without asking for the reason.

To prevent spies from entering the weapons casting department, stealing blueprints, and stealing the casting process.

The Weapons Foundry Department has several factories that produce Rumi guns, Mini rifles, bombs, artillery, and other weapons and ammunition.

For example, in a workshop that produces Mini rifles, all production lines are assembly line production.

Barrels, bolts and other parts are manufactured in batches using molds.

Each worker is responsible for a part of the process, does not interfere with each other, and cooperates with each other, greatly speeding up the manufacturing speed.

During the visit, Yuyi corrected some deficiencies in the factory and asked Zarik to improve them.

After leaving the weapons foundry department, he went to inspect various projects in the city and also went deep into the mountains to check the construction status of the roads into the mountains and the mining conditions of various mines.

By the time we made the rounds, it was almost dark.

…

The next day.

Yu Yi used the black beads to return to the Starfall City Manor.

"Master, why are you back?" Tushan Mingyue, who was passing by, said in surprise when she saw Yu Yi.

Yu Yi smiled and greeted: "Haha... Xiaoyue, long time no see."

"Hey... Xiaoyi, are you willing to come back?" Tu Shanxue, who was walking in the manor, couldn't help but tease.

"Sister Xue, are you so free?"

"Giggle, giggle... Where is the little leisure? It's really enviable to take three little girls to a place of chaos for vacation."

"It's not like you don't know about my situation in the Land of Chaos. Where am I on vacation?"

Yu Yi rolled his eyes and didn't want to talk to this big goblin.

Tu Shanxue shook his head and said: "Xiao Yi, you guessed wrong. My sister doesn't know the situation in the Chaos Land either."

"Huh? The barrier there can isolate Sister Xue's perception?"

"That's right."

Yu Yi was surprised. He was not surprised that the Xingyue Formation could isolate Tu Shanxue's perception.

After all, it was the formation set up by the God of Stars and Moon himself.

The Land of Chaos can also have the same effect. It seems that the formation of the Land of Chaos is related to the gods, and it is not groundless.

Yu Yi hurriedly asked: "Sister Xue, do you know why the chaotic land suppresses cultivation, and why the vitality of heaven and earth is so thin?"

Tu Shanxue shook his head and said: "Sister, I don't know that the Chaos Land was formed very early, and it can be traced back to the period when the evil god brought chaos to the continent.

Tushan’s records about the Land of Chaos are also very vague, and I only know that it is related to the gods.”

"oh……"

"Sister Xue, you can play by yourself." Yu Yi shook his head, turned his gaze to Tushan Mingyue, and said: "Xiaoyue, go and call President Liu and Yingxue to the manor. I have something to discuss with them."

"Yes, master." Tushan Mingyue accepted the order and left.

"Hmph... What a heartless little man, he went to find another woman in front of his sister." Tu Shanxue said in a charming voice.

"..."

Yu Yi was speechless.

If he couldn't beat Tu Shanxue, he really wanted to arrest this big goblin and spank him every day.

…

Half an hour later.

Tu Shan Mingyue returned to the manor with Liu Qiangwei and Lan Yingxue.

Liu Qiangwei couldn't wait to ask: "Master Yu, are you back? What do you want from your subordinates?"

Yu Yi waved his hand and said: "President Liu, Vice President Lan, you come with me to Xingyue Island, and we will explain it together when everyone is here."

"Yes, Master Yu." x 2

The three of them arrived at Xingyue Island through the teleportation array in the manor.

Then, Yu Yi sent people from the Xingyue Tribe to invite Yang Batian, Xuan Qiushui, Xingmu, Xingfeng, Yu Danyun and other senior officials to the tribe.

Xuantian, Xuanyou, and Xuanming joined the Xingyue Island Council and are the three new members.

Compared to Xingmou and Xingfeng's sophisticated methods of dealing with things, Xuanming and the others do not have much authority in speaking, and they are mainly still in the learning stage.

In the meeting hall of the Star-Moon Tribe.

Yu Yi sat on the main seat and said: "I have summoned you all to discuss several matters today."

He told everything about the situation in the Land of Chaos, as well as the new weapons and various new products of the Phoenix Tribe.

Yu Yi also projected several battles through projections for the high-level officials present to watch.

Everyone is very interested in the war in the Land of Chaos, especially the new weapons of the Phoenix Tribe and the Qingluan Tribe, which are even more eye-catching.

Among everyone present, Xingfeng and Xingmu felt this the most.

They have all been exposed to the bombs made by Yuyi.

Liu Qiangwei pondered for a few seconds and said, "Master Yu, do you want to sell new weapons and products in Tianyuan Continent?"

Yu Yi shook his head and said: "No, President Liu is only half right. Glass, cement, soap, salt, paper, and other new products are intended to be sold in Tianyuan Continent. But I do not plan to sell new weapons to outsiders."

Yang Batian said in surprise: "Master Yu, the new weapons of the Phoenix Tribe are indeed very impressive in the chaotic land, but they are not very useful in Tianyuan Continent.

Tianyuan Continent is full of vitality and has many high-level monks.

A strong man can rush into the musketeers' formation and massacre the soldiers."

Yu Yi took out a Mauser rifle from the Yuan Ring and said: "City Lord Yang is right, the new weapons in the Land of Chaos pose too little threat to high-level monks.

I want to build a new weapons research base on Xingyue Island to combine new weapons with rune formations to increase the power of firearms.

For example, formations and star formations are carved on Mauser rifles and bullets, so that the bullets have armor-piercing, freezing, bursting, lightning strike, and other effects.

The same goes for artillery. After the formation is carved, its power will be greatly increased, and it may be able to compete with the Yuanjing Cannon."

Xuan Qiushui's eyes lit up and he said: "Master Yu's idea is really wild and unconstrained. If the formation is really engraved on the Ma... Mauser rifle, maybe we can really create the desired effect.

Moreover, Mauser rifles and artillery can be mass-produced, are cheaper than gunnery division guns, and can be equipped on a large scale for the army."

Yu Yi nodded: "Well, that's really what I think."

Xingmou hurriedly said: "Master Yu, I also think it is feasible. The Xingyue Island Council will establish a research institute as soon as possible.

Send a large number of astrologists who are good at formations to research and transform new weapons, and strive to produce powerful weapons that can be mass-produced as soon as possible."

Yu Yi nodded: "That's very good. When the rune weapons are made, they can be equipped to the Xingyue Island army, greatly increasing their combat effectiveness."

In addition, regarding the research and development of rune weapons, let the person in charge of Xingyue Island use black beads to communicate with Yuan Li, the head of the Phoenix Tribe's scientific research department.

The two discuss each other and maybe they can speed up the development of rune weapons."

Lan Yingxue asked: "Master Yu, do you need the Violet Chamber of Commerce to sell cement, glass, salt, soap and other goods?"

"That's what I meant."

Liu Qiangwei frowned and said, "Master Yu, I think that all new products cannot be sold by the Violet Chamber of Commerce.

Each product alone can monopolize an industry.

The combined benefits of these commodities are too great, and big problems will arise."

Xingfeng interjected: "President Liu, why is this? Isn't it good to make money? With President Liu and Vice President Lan sitting in charge, how can anyone dare to be jealous of the Violet Chamber of Commerce?"

Yu Danyun responded: "Feng'er, you think things are too simple. President Liu and Vice President Lan are indeed powerful saints, but for the time being, they cannot be made public.

The strength they currently display is only at the seventh and eighth levels, and they cannot deter all enemies.

If the Violet Chamber of Commerce sells a variety of new products in large quantities, two or two types of each kind are fine, but if there are too many varieties, some people will definitely become jealous and mobilize all forces to surround the Violet Chamber of Commerce.

At that time, in order to ensure the interests of the Violet Chamber of Commerce, President Liu and Vice President Lan will have no choice but to expose their strength and deter those with evil intentions.

Doing this will also disrupt Master Yu’s plan and expose the trump card of our Time and Space God Sect in advance.”

"Master Yu is right, the Violet Chamber of Commerce cannot afford all the products."

Yu Yi frowned, he had ignored this before.

Xing Mou suggested: "How about sending a group of experts from Xingyue Island to Starfall City to form several chambers of commerce, each responsible for several new products, to reduce the pressure on the Violet Chamber of Commerce."

Yang Batian agreed: "This method is feasible."

Xuan Qiushui did object: "No, most of the residents on Xingyue Island practice star magic, and their characteristics are too obvious."

Yang Batian was confused: "There shouldn't be any problem, right? No one stipulates that residents of Xingyue Island cannot do business in Xingyue City."

Xuan Qiushui rolled his eyes: "Are you stupid? The outside world knows that Xingyue Island is opened every three years. If people from Xingyue Island do business outside, wouldn't they be easily targeted?"

Lan Yingxue nodded in agreement: "Yes, outsiders will think that the Chamber of Commerce on Xingyue Island is in an isolated and helpless state. If it is robbed, it will be robbed, and no one will help to avenge it."
