"All talk and no action. Since father-in-law is curious, I'll bring you to broaden your horizons!”
Song Yuan had been waiting for his father-in-law to take the initiative to bring this up. Otherwise, wouldn't his five days of preparation be in vain?
When Brother Zheng saw this, he could not help but laugh.
As the Ancestral Dragon, he had seen everything in the world. However, when he came to Song Yuan, he had to broaden his horizons every time. This kind of experience was really strange.
However, Brother Zheng was indeed curious about the iron-smelting technique that Song Yuan mentioned. What kind of ironware was comparable to bronze?
"Alright, let's set off while there's still time!" Brother Zheng said.”
Song Yuan nodded and left the manor with Brother Zheng and Meng Tian.
The three of them strolled leisurely and arrived outside the workshop.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
At this moment, in the workshop, the few craftsmen taught by Song Yuan were still practicing the new forging method. From time to time, the sound of forging could be heard.
"Someone's forging weapons?" Brother Zheng asked.”
"You'll know when you go in and take a look."”
Brother Zheng nodded and led Meng Tian into the workshop with Song Yuan.
As soon as he entered the workshop, a thick smoke and dust came over. Brother Zheng couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose. He was puzzled. Why was it so foul when he was forging iron?
However, as he observed, he realized that something was wrong.
First, the furnace in the workshop was completely different from ordinary furnaces.
Although the furnace here was also a shaft furnace, it was bigger. There was also a high base at the bottom. The flames in the base were also very fierce, like a ferocious beast that would devour anyone it met.
Why was the fire so big?
Brother Zheng subconsciously thought about it. Soon, he found something unusual. There was a passage beside the base, and the passage was connected to something strange.
When the Blacksmith pressed down on the object, a gust of wind would blow into the base from the passage, and the fire would also surge.
"The fire is so strong, can it be used to make iron?”
Brother Zheng asked curiously.
"This is the new iron smelting method." Song Yuan nodded.”
He did not explain much. After all, many of the principles were too advanced and his father-in-law could not understand them.
Brother Zheng didn't ask any more questions. He continued to observe. Beside the furnace, someone was also using iron pliers to clamp the sword embryo and forging it. The forging method was different from the usual method. It seemed to be more perfect and more mysterious.
After taking a look, Brother Zheng gave up.
This thing was countless times more advanced than the water wheel. He could not even study the water wheel, so these things were even more difficult to understand. He could only say that it felt much more powerful.
He said,"Alright, I don't understand these things either. Show me the finished product!"”
"Yes." Song Yuan nodded and went forward to ask,"Have any of you forged a finished weapon?"”
"Young master, I've forged a small knife. Is it okay?" Someone hurriedly said.”
"Let me take a look first!"
The man took out a small knife from the shelf. Song Yuan took the knife and looked at it before answering,"30% standard, not bad, keep working hard!”
That person was very excited and hurriedly nodded.
Song Yuan also handed the knife to Brother Zheng and said,""Father-in-law, are you going to do that?"
Brother Zheng frowned as he took the knife. He had heard Song Yuan say " 30% standard " just now. How good could a weapon of this standard be?
He did not take the knife, but looked at Meng Tian.
Meng Tian also felt that this weapon was not very good. Its appearance was very poor. Compared to his bronze sword, it was countless times worse.
But the moment she touched it, Meng Tian realized that something was wrong.
He tried hard, but he couldn't move the knife at all! The blade was also very sharp, and it had already slightly cut through the calluses on his palm!
Meng Tian was very surprised. With his strength, ordinary iron tools could be bent with just a twist, but this small knife was still straight!
He didn't believe it and used even more power.
...
The knife remained unmoving.
Brother Zheng was a little surprised when he saw this. He knew Meng Tian's strength very well. How could Meng Tian not be able to move this little knife?
Song Yuan looked at the two surprised people and said with a smile,"Housekeeper Ji, give up. This is a hundred times better than steel. It's not that easy to break!”
Meng Tian could only give up.
Brother Zheng also took the knife and played with it.
"How is father-in-law? My iron smelting and forging skills are not bad, right?" Song Yuan continued.”
Brother Zheng felt the knife and began to suspect.
Although the knife in front of him was of poor quality, its sharpness was only that of an ordinary weapon.
However, just the hardness and toughness alone could already be compared to some inferior bronze artifacts!
If the standard and craftsmanship were only at thirty percent, then roughly speaking, a hundred percent standard new ironware was already seventy to eighty percent of a superior bronze ware!
This was something Brother Zheng could not accept.
After all, this was a low-cost ironware!
"Is this really 30%?" Brother Zheng asked doubtfully.”
"You're not lying, are you?" Meng Tian echoed.”
Song Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
He immediately nodded." Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, I'll bring you to see what a divine weapon is!"”
"Good! Bring me there now!"
Brother Zheng immediately said.
He wanted to see what a divine weapon was!
