Yuan Tan looked at the blacksmith Zhang Dali.

At this moment, Zhang Dali is really ashamed, his lord has mastered the steelmaking technology, and the big sword in his hand must also be made of steel, but his steel knife is broken, what does this mean?

This shows that his skills in forging weapons are not good.

Zhang Dali bowed to the ground: "Lord, the villain is not a famous craftsman, and he is ashamed to have humiliated this kind of steel." ”

"No one is perfect, get up."

Yuan Tan did not blame Zhang Dali.

Zhang Dali was even more ashamed that his lord's steelmaking methods could only be matched by top craftsmen. He suddenly thought of something in his heart, and hurriedly said:

"The lord, the Pu family in Datong, Bingzhou, is the first blacksmith family today, and the current head of the family, Pu Yuan, is the first wrought ironsmith today."

Pu Yuan?

Yuan Tan has an influence on this person.

Later generations recorded: Pu Yuan made 3,000 knives for Zhuge Liang in the sloping valley. The knife he made can split a bamboo tube filled with iron beads, and is known as a magic knife. From the legend, it can be known that Pu Yuan mastered the production of steel, and at the same time mastered the exquisite quenching technique of steel knives.

It seems that only good steel is not enough, but also famous craftsmen.

During the winter break, the border was calm, so Yuan Tan set off the next day, taking Zhao Yun and others to Datong, Bingzhou.

…………

Bingzhou Datong, that is, Shanxi Datong, produces coal and iron ore.

These two minerals are the favorite of blacksmiths.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there is a blacksmith family like the Pu family here.

"I heard that the third prince beat the military advisor Tian Feng out of chaos."

"Why?"

"It is said that Tian Fengjin slandered."

When Yuan Tan walked into Datong County, he heard the discussion of the people.

"Lord, Tian Junshi's slander is not credible, most likely because Tian Junshi is upright and has collided with the third prince when he speaks."

Xin commented on his understanding.

This time, Yuan Tan came with Zhao Yun, Xu Huang and Xin Ping.

Zhao Yun and the others are bodyguards, and Xin Ping is the guide.

In fact, Xin Ping is not a good bird in itself.

However, it seems that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.

Driven by Yuan Tan, these second- and third-rate subordinates around him are also thriving on the road with a bright future, and they are developing for the better.

It seems to be a sentence that the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked.

"Well played."

Yuan Tan smiled.

Zhao Yun and the others looked at each other, and suddenly showed a knowing smile, the third prince can beat a capable person like Tian Junshi, which can be seen.

"The third prince is the pastor of the state, the highest status of the three princes, and the future heir of the Yuan family."

"That Tian Feng doesn't know what to do, and he deserves to be beaten."

"The one who will inherit the foundation of the Yuan family in the future must be the third son, that's what my lord said. Look at what I'm doing, I'm not lying, yesterday I followed the master to the third prince to give gifts. Don't you see, there is a lot of traffic in front of the third prince, and how many court officials have come from Yecheng to give gifts. ”

Others argue from another angle.

Zhao Yun and the others' hearts sank, so they secretly went to see their lord, and saw Yuan Tan showing an indifferent expression.

"My lord! In front of it is the Pujia blacksmith workshop. ”

Xin commented on it.

"You go and send the steel you brought to the Pu family to make a steel knife, and we'll come back when the knife is ready."

Yuan Tan looked at this workshop, but the scale and quality of the ironware were far better than the other blacksmith shops along the way.

The backyard of the Pu family at this time.

The capable characters of the Pu family are all gathered here.

The head of the family, Pu Yuan, used the latest technology and the latest steel to create the first knife.

Today is the last quenching of this knife.

Thorn~.

A large amount of steam comes out of a tank filled with clear mineral water.

Chime chime chime .......

Like a chaotic ear of silk and bamboo.

In the light, the sharp knife came out.

Everyone looked at the knife in amazement.

"Try the knife!"

Pu Yuan held the steel knife with extraordinary momentum, and he was even more heroic in the mist.

Click~

Click~

Click~

Whether it was a pig iron knife, or a wrought iron knife, or a steel knife, all of them were cut off, and this knife was unscathed.

But everything has hardness, and if the hardness can't be compared, it can't leave traces at all. Later generations often used sharp objects to test glass, marble, etc. There are scratches, which means no.

"Hahahaha......."

Under the eyes of everyone in awe and joy, Pu Yuan looked up to the sky and laughed.

"It worked!"

A good knife is indispensable for both steel quality and forging means. Let's just say that the steel knife that Pu Yuan cut just now was also built by him, but it was broken by the current one.

This shows that the steel knife is now of better quality.

Pu Yuan said proudly, "Ou Yetian, your Ou Ye family inherited the forging technology from Ou Yezi's predecessors, and you can compete with me." But from now on, steel can no longer be discussed in front of me. From now on, no one in this world will be able to judge steel in front of my Pu family! ”

The Ou Yezi he said was a native of Yue from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the early Warring States Period, and the originator of ancient Chinese sword casting. Zhanlu, Juque, fish intestines and other divine soldiers are all from Ou Yezi.

Everyone looked at their family master with admiration, and after thirty years of poor skills, the family master finally stood at the highest peak in the field.

Even at this moment, Ou Yezi is reborn, and he has to sigh with joy, right?

The people were proud of it.

The family is proud of it.

Pu Yuan said, "I will pass on this secret method to you." ”

The children of the Pu family looked at them even more.

"Father, what's the name of this knife?"

Pu Shan asked excitedly.

Pu Yuan raised the knife, glowing in mid-air, and spit out two words, "God ~ Knife!" ”

Suddenly, the courtyard erupted in cheers.

Sure enough, it was a divine sword, and no weapon could withstand its force.

Just as they enjoyed the moment of success.

"The head of the family, someone sent a piece of stainless steel and asked our Pu family to make a knife."

The people who were in charge of trading and buying and selling from outside came.

The clansmen who observe the sword formation here are all elites, and the future inheritors are selected from among them.

They have an extraordinary vision.

At this moment, the eyes converged on the steel in the hands of the visitor.

"Good steel!"

"This ...... is the same as what the head of the family has been tempered thousands of!"

"Could it be that the descendants of the Ouye family have made a breakthrough in steelmaking!"

You must know that Pu Yuan has recently broken through to get better steel. At this moment, the texture of this piece of steel is not comparable to Pu Yuan's, which has to lead people to reverie.

"Huh?"

Pu Yuan frowned after taking this piece of steel, and he never expected that in addition to himself, there would be someone in the world who could make such steel. I have just broken through, is there someone who has just broken through?

"Is there someone coming to kick the field? Could it be Ou Yetian of the Ouye family? ”

Pu Yuan's son, Pu Shan, had a flame in his eyes.

Outsiders may not know, but insiders have routines.

Wouldn't a man who could make such steel forge a sword? What does it mean to take such a good steel to Pujia forging? The Pu family can't make this kind of steel to slap the face?

Fortunately, the head of the family broke through, if not, he would be slapped in the face.

A group of Pu family elites had palpitations. You must know that they are the top blacksmith family in this world, and they are most afraid of being surpassed. If it is surpassed, even if people don't come to slap their faces, they will be invisibly swollen.

It is unacceptable to fall from the first place in the world.

"How did you reply?"

Pu Yuan looked at the junior of his own front desk and said majestically.

"Master, I said that since it has been tempered into steel thousands of times, then it will be able to produce the knife in seven days. When the knife comes out, they'll come back. ”

"Your answer is not bad, it looks like someone wants to weigh our Pu family's catties. Pushan, you come to forge this sword. ”

Pu Yuan did not forge this piece of steel himself, and his expression was full of meaning.
