069. Forging tools
Although they are noisy and shouting, these rabbits are really good at moving.
In just half an hour, there were a lot of small iron beads of large and small, regular or irregular iron beads piled up in the corners of the yard.
The surface of these iron beads was all covered with a thin film, and the sunlight shining through the translucent glass spread out on the iron beads...... Seriously, although I don't want to be sure, these poops are really beautiful from the perspective of human visual aesthetics.
After the accumulation was completed, Tao Zhaide also walked out and looked at the beads.
These iron balls did not emit any stench, but had some faint fragrance. The little debt next to him directly opened his mouth, stretched out his hand, and looked like he wanted to pounce on and kneel and lick.
"Hmm...... It's about a kilogram. β
Tao Zhaide frowned, fiddling with the iron beads. After that, he nodded and saidβ
"In short, we now have about a kilogram of pig iron. Now, all you need to do is make the pig iron into a weapon!"
This guy is full of interest, and he really has an attitude of rolling up his sleeves and going straight to work.
However, the main duck squatting on top of his head yawned and said in a wistful mannerβ
"I said, servant, it's a good idea for you to make something out of this pig iron. But...... Do you know how to strike iron?"
Tao Zhaide was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he shook his head.
"Oh, I know you won't. In addition to knowing how to strike iron, you also need a complete set of blacksmith's tools that can melt these iron beads and then forge them. For example, a stove, an iron felt for striking iron, and a hammer to take advantage of. You may be able to let this little girl come to this flame thing, and you can also operate it yourself to cool down quickly. But these alone are still far from enough to make pig iron into a concrete iron tool. β
Tao Zhaide touched the back of his head and frowned.
Indeed, it seems very easy to think about something. But to really do it, in fact, every industry needs a wealth of knowledge to be able to do it.
He turned his head and looked at the rabbits behind him looking at his eyes, and then at the little debt next to him, and at Bai Hong, who kept licking his palms.
"Hmm...... So what should I do next, Lord Duck?"
The Lord Duck bent his neck, pecked him directly on the forehead, and said, "If I have to direct everything, then what fun do I have? I tell you, servant, that my greatest pleasure now is to see how you solve the many difficulties of life." The past year has been a lucky one, because you don't have to worry too much about eating and drinking. There is that little evil child covering you, you don't stay in the city to cover you, and the loot you obtained from winning Qin You covers you. But you can't go on like this, and then you have to figure out how to solve the problem yourself!
The main duck's voice was very stern, and Tao Zhaide had a suddenly realized expression, touched his slightly painful forehead, and said, "Yes, little evil." I wonder how he is doing now? I wonder if he will go to the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference...... Has he awakened his mind?"
"You still have the energy to care about others? Hurry up and find a way for me!"
Under the pressure of the main duck, Tao Zhaide finally began to rub the back of his head, looking at the iron beads and frowning.
He's got a stupid brain, and it's really, really time-consuming to get his head to figure it out.
Seeing that he had been standing here thinking, the rabbits who had been around the back also slowly dispersed, and continued to clean the floor and clean up the debris. Bai Hong also turned into a tiger, stretched out her paws and wanted to catch the rabbits to play, but she didn't dare much, so she could only hide in the living room, through the door, and look at the rabbits outside with resentment.
From the daytime, I thought of the evening.
Tao Zhaide always closed his eyes, thinking about his future ways to make a living.
That is, just before he was about to fall asleep, the fool who had been thinking for a long time suddenly stood up! He nodded vigorously, took out a pen and paper and wrote down something, and then wrapped all the iron beads in a cloth bag, and rushed straight out of the door.
Then, there's the blizzard.
It was about four or five hours before he rejoined the blizzard and returned to the house. The package was gone, and his face was full of joy.
The next night, he left the igloo with Bai Hong and went to the shipping cabinet at the foot of the mountain to take out the food that had been delivered.
Then another five days passed......
"Come on, come on, come and help! Hurry up!"
Early this morning, Tao Zhaide went down the mountain.
When it was almost noon, his voice shouted in high spirits outside the door.
When the main duck, rabbit, and white rainbow went out to take a look, they saw that he was pulling a flat cart made of ice, and a complete set of simple forging tools and iron felt were frozen on the car! Of course, there was also a large amount of food, but compared to these forging tools, it was really not worth the sun.
The main duck flew up and landed on top of these forging tools that had been frozen into ice cubes, looked at them, and noddedβ
"Yes, these tools are simple, but they all look pretty good? Where did you get that?"
Tao Zhaide smiled, took out a letter from his bosom, and opened it.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Tao Xianjia, respectfully:
The pig iron beads you consigned have been identified by our office, and they are much better in color and texture than those produced in my captivity.
So, I accept these iron balls. A total of seven taels of pig iron per kilogram, because of the high quality, my Snow family estimated it at 12 yuan and 360 yuan.
Removing the food you've consumed during this time, I'll be looking for you three times back.
However, since you need this complete set of forging tools at this moment, and this complete set of forging tools is worth twenty Tongguan, you still owe me the price of seventeen Tongguan.
Then, the basic forging introduction that came with the letter was some basic points written by the father of some of the forges of the Snow family. It also includes some simple ironware, knick-knacks, and even simple weapons that you can see.
In addition, if you can forge some iron tools that meet the standards, I will be happy to buy them. In the future, if the ironsmithing on your side is good enough, we may also issue some commissions. I think this will also make the business cooperation between you and me more pleasant.
Eventually, the amount you owe can be repaid until the end of the year.
If I can see what I want by the end of the year, all the money you've spent this year will be written off.
In other words, the value of the thing I have entrusted you to fetch for me is equal to the total price of all the goods you have requested from me in the second half of the year.
Respect, the fairy road is safe.
Snowbride herself.
