Actually, it wasn't really possible to open a mountain!
It was just an exaggeration to describe that what he was about to show was definitely very powerful!
In the next few days, Zhao Yu found a small mine in the eastern suburbs.
There was an endless amount of ore in there. Thinking about how Great Qin did not have any refined iron weapons that could be mass-produced, Zhao Yu mined some iron ore.
When he returned to the courtyard, he spent some effort using the refined iron forging technique in his mind.
He forged a smooth and sharp steel sword!
The sword hilt was engraved with the five-clawed golden dragon script that Zhao Yu had seen on the wooden box that Old Zhao had given him.
Under the attentive gazes of Qin Shi Huang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi, Zhao Yu turned around.
He took out a long sword wrapped in a scabbard.
The sword hilt was engraved with a five-clawed golden dragon, and the scabbard was engraved with the Great Qin's black Heavenly Fate Mystic Bird.
At first glance, it was domineering!
This caused Wang Jian and Meng Yi to be momentarily stunned. Good heavens, he actually used dragon patterns!
This was a dragon pattern specially used by His Majesty!
Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will kill you?
Zhao Yu's right hand gripped the hilt of the sword and pulled it out. The cold blade of the sword instantly caused the air in the room to turn cold!
Zhao Yu waved his steel sword in front of Old Zhao with a smile and said,"Old Zhao, weigh it?"
Qin Shihuang had thought that it was some kind of mountain-splitting divine artifact, but it turned out to be an iron sword!
However, the quality of this iron sword was different from the iron weapons in the past!
It seemed to be sharper and harder?
Qin Shi Huang took the steel sword out of curiosity and found that it seemed to be heavier than the iron sword.
"If this iron sword can be mass-produced, it can replace Bronze weapons, and the problem of Great Qin's weapons can be solved!”Qin Shi Huang muttered to himself.
Looking at Old Zhao's infatuated expression, Zhao Yu stared at Old Zhao and said,""Old Zhao, don't you have Old Wang by your side? Wasn't Old Wang very good at fighting? Even you were bullied? Do you want me to help you kill him?"
Qin Shi Huang was stunned for a moment. He looked at Zhao Yu's righteous expression and said calmly,""Old Yu, you are really loyal!”
Qin Shi Huang looked at Zhao Yu in surprise. He did not expect Zhao Yu to really think that they had been beaten up.
When Meng Yi heard this, he held back his laughter in his heart.
Who the f * ck would dare to beat up Qin Shihuang?
Even if he had a hundred guts, Qin Shihuang wouldn't dare to beat him up!
He would probably kneel down immediately!
However, when Zhao Yu said that he would help them beat up someone, Meng Yi felt that Zhao Yu was a very loyal person!
The Great Qin Dynasty valued martial arts, but they also valued loyalty!
They felt that Zhao Yu was to their liking.
Seeing the three of them smiling, Zhao Yu was confused!
How could he be so happy after being beaten up?
Zhao Yu was serious as he stared at Old Zhao and asked in a deep voice,""Old Zhao, just answer me one question. Are we brothers?”
Qin Shi Huang was playing with the sword in his hand and was about to ask about the forging method of the iron sword when he heard Zhao Yu's question.
His expression suddenly froze. He thought for a moment and said calmly,"Yes."
The moment these words came out, Wang Jian and Meng Yi by the side were suddenly shocked in their hearts!
Call His Majesty brother?
This was something they didn't even dare to think about!
No one would believe it if this were to spread.
There was actually someone who dared to call His Majesty brother?
Was he tired of living?
However, seeing the calm look on His Majesty's face, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhao Yu heard Old Zhao's affirmative answer and smiled,""Since that's the case, I, Zhao Yu, will take care of your matters!”
"Quick, tell me, who bullied you?”Zhao Yu's face was filled with ferocity." I'll help you beat him to death!”
Old Zhao's expression was rarely bright and cheerful as he said briskly,"Actually, we weren't the ones who were beaten up! Didn't His Majesty kill the Yue people in Great Qin? "In order to take revenge on Great Qin, the Yue people intercepted my merchant group and robbed all of my resources!”
"Hey!" Old Zhao looked at Zhao Yu and sighed,""A few of my subordinates were also killed by the Yue people. I'm about to go bankrupt!”
"Bai Yue people?" Zhao Yu muttered to himself, then said in a deep voice," Old Zhao, your business has actually reached the Hundred Yue. No wonder you're so generous.”
Pausing for a moment, Zhao Yu's eyes flashed with killing intent as he said coldly,"These Yue people actually robbed my brother! Old Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely think of a way to help you teach the Yue people a lesson!”
After pondering for a while, Zhao Yu was truly enraged!
Old Zhao was his money tree!
He did not have many friends in Great Qin, and Old Zhao, Old Wang, and Old Meng were to his liking!
But now, he was almost bankrupt because of the barbarians of the Bai Yue!
How could this be!
Zhao Yu quickly calmed down and comforted Old Zhao,"Old Zhao, don't be too sad. Although I can't go to the Bai Yue to help you kill people personally, I have a way to help you get through the current crisis.”
"What is it?" Qin Shi Huang's eyes were filled with curiosity as he stared at Zhao Yu.
"Refined iron smelting method!" Zhao Yu said solemnly.
Seeing the three of them confused, Zhao Yu took the steel sword from Old Zhao's hands and showed it to them.
After a pause, Zhao Yu explained," This is a steel sword forged from refined iron. What do you think?"”
As he said this, Zhao Yu looked at Wang Jian.
Of the three people present, only Old Wang carried a bronze sword with him.
Wang Jian received the Steel Sword and carefully sized it up a few times. A hint of solemnity surfaced on his face!
Then, Lao Wang took out the bronze sword that had accompanied him for many years. He held the hilt and pulled out the sheath!
Old Wang held a steel sword in his left hand and a bronze sword in his right as he slashed left and right!
Bang!
The two swords clashed and sparks flew!
Under everyone's gaze, the two swords were intact!
Hiss!
Wang Jian sucked in a breath of cold air!
The sword in his hand was the unparalleled sword forged by the best blacksmith in the country under the command of the former King of Qin!
Other than Qin Shihuang's Lulu Sword, there were few people in the world who could match it!
An ordinary bronze sword would almost certainly break if struck!
Even if they did not stop, they would still leave a gap!
However, the bronze sword could only fight evenly with the refined iron sword!
Moreover, Wang Jian was also clear in his heart.
The amount of refined iron produced in the Great Qin Iron Mine far exceeded that of copper!
If this refined iron smelting method could be mass-produced, the Qin army…would no longer have to worry about the lack of elite soldiers and sharp weapons!
Qin Shi Huang was also shocked!
At first, he only thought that the refined iron sword was sharper. He did not expect it to be on par with the sword in Wang Jian's hand!
If all of Great Qin's soldiers could wield refined iron swords…Great Qin's soldiers would be invincible!
Meng Yi, as a high official, was flabbergasted and his breathing quickened.
Zhao Yu's Refined Iron Refining Technique had actually forged such a tough Refined Iron!
If Great Qin used this method, Great Qin would no longer have to worry about weapons!
Zhao Yu had expected this when he saw the three of them in shock.
After a pause, Zhao Yu called out to the three of them,"Sit down, what are you all standing for? I haven't finished speaking."
Old Zhao and the other two sat down in confusion, picked up the tea on the table, and drank it in one gulp.
After drinking the tea, Qin Shi Huang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi looked at Zhao Yu once again.
Zhao Yu smiled and said," As long as you follow my instructions, it won't be a problem for you to produce 10,000 catties of refined iron per day!"”
Boom!
Just as Zhao Yu finished speaking, Qin Shi Huang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi were so shocked that it was as if a thunderclap had exploded above their heads!
A daily output of 10,000 catties!
Great Qin also produced iron, but it only produced a few thousand kilograms of iron a year.
The refined iron smelting method that Zhao Yu had provided could produce ten thousand catties of refined iron per day!
Qin Shi Huang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi were stunned!
Wang Jian even swallowed two or three mouthfuls of saliva, as if his throat was dry.
Zhao Yu had seen the trio's reactions and this was within his expectations.
The manufacturing cost of Refined Iron weapons was only one-tenth of that of Bronze weapons!
Iron replaced bronze weapons during the Han Dynasty.
However, it was not until the Tang and Song Dynasties that iron weapons could be compared to bronze!
Green-Copper equipment could be said to be Great Qin's black technology!
The biggest problem in smelting refined iron was the temperature of the furnace. The temperature needed to smelt bronze was 1,000 degrees, while the temperature needed to smelt refined iron was 1,500 degrees!
Zhao Yu did not have a problem with Great Qin's furnace being unable to meet this requirement.
Zhao Yu firmly believed that if this method was used by the Qin army, they would be able to save at least two-thirds of their military expenses!
