If you just refine iron ore, remove the impurities inside and get qualified steel.

The territory hopes that the steel factory that has produced the components before can do this work, and the output has stabilized and increased through continuous trial and error. It only takes a while to gradually update the old equipment, and it can basically meet the requirements of the territory's current production of ordinary tools.

needs.

Under this situation, Lianmeng Steel Factory wanted to step in and get orders and make considerable profits.

It's difficult.

Either find ways to increase production or find ways to suppress costs.

But it’s easier said than done.

Not only is Spicy Iron Hammer not good at this, but the apocalyptic madman is also blind.

Therefore, the two could only decide to overtake in a corner, improve their smelting technology and purity, and enter another incompetent track, specializing in the production of high-quality materials.

Either for military weapons or for important buildings in the territory.

As for orders with low price and low technical content, it is just right to leave them to the steel factory in the village.

"Hey, what was my big deal back then?"

"Recipe ratio? Isn't the steel factory in the village willing to share it with you?"

Pu Ling Mo Zi smiled calmly and said confidently without taking anything seriously.

"I know the factory director over there. If it's hard for you to ask, I can go help and ask for it."

"When it's done, I'll just give you some introduction fee."

The voice fell.

The spicy hammer at the front turned his head, and after exchanging glances with the doomsday madman, both of them had strange expressions.

Good guy.

So familiar?

He said he knew the director of the village steel factory. Didn't he know

"Well, I just want the director of the steel factory."

Beside Spicy Iron Hammer, a short man with an unattractive appearance stood up under the spotlight.

"Introducing Jiang Chengren, channel nickname: Shangfang Jiewa 001"

"We know each other?"

"Forehead"

Being exposed on the spot, the dark face turned slightly red, and he gesticulated quickly with his hands behind his back.

However, he was not as panicked as expected, but continued to face the latter:

"Director Jiang, have you forgotten that the Hope Steel Plant was soliciting methods for smelting Dali iron ore? We have made new discoveries and are waiting to report to you after we finish this task of digging trenches."

"Huh? Have you found a way?"

Jiang Chengren was stunned for a moment after catching the information in Pu Ling Mo Zi's words.

The melting point of Dali iron ore is higher than that of ordinary iron ore collected from Iron Stone Mountain, reaching 2100 degrees, which has exceeded the limit of smelting by ordinary blast furnaces.

Even if the steel factory took the coal back from the dwarf Blackstone Camp and retorted it at a thousand degrees of high temperature to make coke that was more resistant to burning and heated up faster. The three blast furnaces built still could not meet the 2,000 degree requirement.

, the highest temperature always hovers around 1600 degrees.

Therefore, the steel factory issued a notice asking for more convenient smelting methods.

And now the reason why he came to Lianmeng Steel Factory was because Spicy Iron Hammer developed an improved converter with a secondary temperature increase based on the blast furnace.

The molten iron melted from the blast furnace will enter the ultra-large converter with eight air inlets through the backflow trough. The heat released by ordinary molten iron during the oxidation process and the heat raised by the inlet air will continue to raise the temperature.

.

During this period, the furnace temperature that was originally 1,600 degrees will quickly rise to about 2,100 degrees, reaching the basic conditions for melting Dali iron ore.

Unfortunately, among the currently known furnace lining materials, as the temperature rises to 1640 degrees, the strength of the furnace lining will decrease by 10% for every 10 degrees of increase. Even magnesia carbon bricks cannot withstand such high temperatures continuously.

The Dali iron ore that had just been put in for smelting was less than half melted. As the temperature dropped rapidly, it solidified into irregular waste ore, which was far from the level that could be poured into a mold and rolled into shape.

"Of course, we have found the perfect way to smelt this ore!"

Chu Ling Mo Zi was still confident, and at the same time, he pulled out a man with a goatee from behind.

"It was discovered by Lao Dao. After our testing, as long as the Dali iron ore can be continuously forged, the internal temperature will rise."

"Although I don't know how fast the frequency is to achieve melting, I think you should have a solution, right?"

Although Chu Ling Mozi didn't know much about steelmaking, the test ore from before was a bit hot to his hands after just hitting it with a hammer for a while.

If the steel factory could create a forging machine with a motor, how could it be faster than him using a hammer?

Maybe.

If he can really meet the melting conditions, the reward will be 50 Tianyuan copper coins, which is enough to make him rich twice.

“Can beating heat it up?”

Spicy Iron Hammer's eyes lit up and he immediately winked at the doomsday madman.

The latter quickly pulled out a piece of Dali iron ore waste from the waste pile nearby and placed it on the operating table.

"I come!"

The man standing aside walked up, picked up the hammer and started beating.

Dali iron ore that has not been smelted is more fragile than ordinary iron ore. It only takes a few times for sparks to appear randomly and slight deformation.

After hitting him for more than ten times, he retreated to get out of the way.

Spicy Iron Hammer and Jiang Chengren stepped forward to touch it.

Sure enough, the temperature at the beating site really increased a lot, about 30 degrees higher than that of the waste material next to it.

"Can this ore absorb energy? Convert kinetic energy into internal energy?"

At the first moment, the knowledgeable people exchanged glances quickly, and they were all a little shocked.

Due to common sense, after getting the Dali iron ore, everyone didn't think about it at all and just continued to smelt it at high temperatures according to the way on earth.

But now, I picked up a piece of scrap and threw the spicy hammer away.

The edge of the ore hit the ground, leaving a black mark.

When I picked it up again, the rubbing area felt slightly warm to the touch.

"How about it, am I right?"

Looking around at these people who were shocked by "themselves", they were so proud that they quickly interjected:

"And according to my research, if you don't hit this thing for two seconds, pick up the place you hit and knock it down, it will release all the heat inside at the impact point at once, which is amazing!"

"What?"

If we say this strange way of heating up, it just allows the steel plant to find another possibility to smelt Dali iron ore besides upgrading the electric arc furnace.

The characteristics tested by this moth are enough to subvert everyone's cognition.

Absorb energy and release it?

No way.

The doomsday madman's eyes widened and he quickly tried what Chu Ling Mo Zi said.

A few seconds later, looking at the result in front of him, he opened his mouth wide, and a term that only existed in movies appeared in his mind.

"Vibranium?"

A fictional metal in comics, rumored to come from meteorites in the sky. Because of its special molecular structure, its molecules are relatively static and hardly conduct heat and kinetic energy, so it can absorb it and then explode after being impacted.

.

Of course, compared to the indestructible properties of vibranium, the fragility of Dali Iron Ore is obvious to all.

Neither the iron-clad shield in Captain America's hand nor the armor of Black Panther that can withstand various types of impacts can be made.

But what if it is not used alone, but linked with other materials?

Ordinary iron armor, with some smelted iron ore added and distributed in fragile areas, can completely absorb external impact kinetic energy and better protect the wearer.

For a less powerful portable pistol, if some powerful iron ore is added to the barrel, the first shot may be weaker due to kinetic energy absorption, but as long as you wait for two seconds and shoot when the second kinetic energy is released, it will be completely possible.

It has a "critical hit" effect.

Turning tools for lathes, punching tools for punching machines, and drill bits for milling machines.

It can absorb energy first and then release it. If it can be used, its uses are simply too wide.

If Lianmeng Steel Factory can seize this opportunity,

"Director Jiang?"

Mala Tiezhui was the first to react and said with a smile: "We have agreed before that the development of Dali Iron Mine will be entirely handled by Lianmeng Iron and Steel Works. You can't take away our business."
