"Du Shaojian was born in a famous family, and everyone knew the reputation of the two masters of Chang'an." He Laosan curled his lips, and the implication was nothing more than saying that Du He was the young prisoner because of his family background, and he was just an ordinary citizen.

Du He smiled, stopped Zhou Renqi, who wanted to scold He Laosan again, pointed to his head and said, "You are wrong. The reason why I am a junior supervisor is because I have a brain, and the reason why you are a blacksmith is because you only know how to make irons.

Well, when it comes to brains, the one you had before was also brainless, so I dismissed him, and one general was incompetent and exhausted thousands of troops to death!

The reputation of being a prisoner is ruined by those idiots. Of course, there are you and some of your responsibilities in it."

"I don't agree. My He Laosan's skills are the best in serving as a supervisor." He Laosan said in a loud voice.

"What's the use of good technology? I'm not stupid enough to just swing a sledgehammer."

Du He sighed and glanced at the frustrated He Laosan: "Oh! I know, it's no point in saying it, you must not believe what I said. Just like this, how long will it take to build a coal stove?"

"One day!" He Laosan said angrily.

Du He nodded and drove a coal stove a day. The speed was really not slow. In the past, he used to use one stove outside every two days.

"Okay, then let's use one day as the standard. In one day, you can drive a coal stove, and I will pick twenty people to build twenty coal stoves, and see who can drive it faster, how?"

"Keep your word?" He Laosan's eyes flashed, and he thought for a while and said, "What if you lose?"

"I lost, I can agree to you three conditions." Du He didn't mention what would happen if he won. It was not that he didn't have the confidence to win, but that he didn't know what He Laosan would do after winning.

Forget it, that's it.

After the bet was made, Du He picked twenty people from the crowd, half of whom were apprentices. Zhou Renqi's eyes twitched. He wanted to persuade him, but was stared back with a look.

...

In the open shed, He Laosan had already started working. The sledgehammer was swinging rapidly, and the sound of jingling was endless. He didn't even look at Du He.

There is no craftsman who is better at working as an iron smelting workshop than him, not to mention that Du He has selected eight or nine apprentices, and he will never lose in the same time.

Looking at Du He again, he seemed to be in a hurry. Twenty people were called by him to ask about something, and they were asking some instructions while asking. From time to time, they sent someone away and waited on the side of the smelting furnace.

In a full moment, He Laosan had already completed the preparations, and Du He had just started.

Outside the iron smelting workshop, the blacksmith on the side brought hundreds of apprentices to stretch his neck and looked at the gambling battle. From time to time, someone shook his head with regret, expressing his disapproval of Du He.

Scholars are scholars, and they are fantastic in everything they do.

But I don’t know that ironwork is a technical job and not everyone can do it.

Zhou Renqi was also very nervous, and his palms were already sweating.

He didn't know what Du He wanted to do, but since he was making a bet, He Laosan had started, why was he still procrastinating here? Could it be that he... gave up?

Alas, if I had known, I should have stopped me just now.

Now, the gambling battle has begun. If you lose less, won’t you have no prestige in the future.

Just as he was worried, he saw that among the people belonging to Du He, the first person in the position moved. He took a piece of iron sheet and made one of them into a concave shape without saying a word. Then, in the astonished eyes of everyone, he handed the iron sheet to the second person, and he took another piece of iron sheet.

The repeated movements were very fast. Soon the first person had hammered out six iron plates, and the first iron plate was already in the hands of the seventh person behind. After a few slight knocks, it turned into a cylinder.

Then the cylinder continued to pass down, with some people opening holes on it and some people rolling edges.

Everyone is repeating the same work, bent people, curled edges, and opened holes... As the movements become more and more proficient, these people are getting faster and faster.

A moment later...

"Bang" a coal stove was thrown aside.

Then, there were continuous "bang" and "bang", and soon seven or eight coal stoves were piled up by the last person.

Everyone who thought Du He would lose was stunned.

This... if this speed is at this, these twenty people can at least drive a hundred coal stoves in a day, right?

There are more than 120 craftsmen in the iron smelting workshop. If you include apprentices, there are almost 500 people.

They had just watched it. Although the apprentices could not independently complete the construction of coal stoves, it was still fine to complete one of the processes.

In other words, as long as the arrangement is properly, these five hundred people can go into battle at the same time.

I was scheming and had read a little book and calculated it with my fingers. Five hundred people can be divided into twenty-five groups, twenty-five groups, each group can create 100 coal stoves every day...

Damn….

Wouldn't that mean that the three thousand coal stoves can be finished if they can't even use them for two days?

Uh..., well, this is actually impossible, because there are not so many smelting furnaces in the iron smelting workshop. Even if all the idle furnaces were used now, there will be only 200 furnaces available at most.

But even so, you can create a thousand in a day.

Three thousand coal stoves will be completed in three days.

The same number of people and the same location, just changed the way, and there was such a big change...

...

"Bang..."

He Laosan, who was independently completing the construction of a coal stove, glanced at Du He's progress.

Really, just a glance.

But this glance made him stunned.

On my side, the coal stove had just been bent into a barrel, but Du He seemed to have stopped working, and twenty coal stoves were piled up there neatly.

What happened? What did this guy do?

How could he be so fast? I just started and he is done?
Chapter completed!
