Chapter 20: Banter's Attitude

It turned out that Bent gave Meron the typical type of stern and impersonal feeling, but now it is different.

But I don't have time to think about that now, all I have to think about is how to convince Banter.

In this world, the metals commonly used to make weapons are copper and iron, and how much you can get depends on how much you can convince Bant.

After organizing the words, Meron looked up at Bant and said, "The weapon I want to make is not the traditional one, but one sharper and stronger than the one I've ever seen, and if I can, my escort will be equipped with this kind of weapon." ”

You can't talk a lot of nonsense when talking to someone like Bent, Meron tries to keep it short.

Bant frowned, stared at Meron for a moment, and without speaking, got up and took a short knife from the wall and handed it to Meron.

This knife Meron had seen more than once, it was a treasure knife worn by Bent, and it was only occasionally kept in the study when he was resting at home.

The short knife is very tightly wrapped, and every time I see it, it is in a leather scabbard, and the handle is also wrapped in a leather case.

Slowly pulling the knife out of its scabbard, a cold light flashed, making Meron involuntarily squint.

I'm sure this knife must have drunk blood, more than once.

Looking closely at the short knife in his hand, Meron secretly sighed that it was a good knife!

The knife was four inches wide, a foot and a half long, and half a finger thick, it was an iron knife, the purest metal item Meron had ever seen in this world, much better than Yalina's short sword.

"This knife is very pure, I haven't operated it yet, I can't guarantee if I can create a better weapon than this, but it will definitely not be worse than it." After observing for a while, Meron returned the knife to Bent and spoke.

Seeing that Meron was still swearing, Bante's brows furrowed a lot: "This treasure knife was awarded by the Duke when I first became an earl and followed the Duke in the autumn battle to make great achievements." ”

Meron had heard of this, and it was one of Bent's proudest feats.

The so-called battle merit was that Banter saved the Duke's life, and the Duke gave Bent the knife he carried with him in gratitude.

From the side, Bant is telling Meron the origin of this knife, and the duke's production must be a high-quality ......

That said, Bant thinks Meron braggarts.

Bant is not ignorant of weapon casting, but has a lot of research, he has an weapon foundry under his banner, but he definitely can't make this kind of high-purity weapon.

It would be good to be able to produce ordinary weapons smoothly, and this is all the capital that Bant can be a head above in front of other counts.

Bent doesn't often appear in Meron's sight, but he knows exactly how Meron grew up, he doesn't think Meron has the ability to cast weapons, let alone high-purity weapons, even ordinary ones are enough.

Meron was not angry either, and smiled: "I got a secret method for metal purification, I'm sure it's true." ”

The secret method of yarn is the metallurgy of the previous life, but I can't tell Bant about it.

Meron is confident that even without advanced equipment, it will be no problem to refine iron that is better than these pig irons.

The reason why I didn't pat my chest was that I couldn't talk full, and second, I didn't see coal in this world, and I relied on wood as fuel alone, so it would be greatly affected when refining, and it was really hard to say to what extent.

"Oh? What secret method? Bent looked at Meron with interest.

It's just that look in his eyes, still not believing, as if he is saying that you make it up, make it up.

This can't be blamed for Bent, if you want to complain, you can blame the original Meron for being an unusual ruthless person, he hasn't been out of the castle for eighteen years, and he sleeps all day except for eating and drinking.

The only exception was when I spied on Yalina, and of course she didn't leave the castle......

Touching his aching head, Meron didn't know what to say, if Edinburgh had enough metal materials to make a sample, it would be easy now.

But in addition to the little metal on the spear of the captain of the guards, there was only a short sword and a kitchen knife left in the whole castle, which could never be damaged without a new replacement, and they were expected to eat.

After being silent for a while, Meron said helplessly: "There are indeed methods for purification, and there are many ways to manufacture new weapons, but this thing is very troublesome to explain, and I can't tell you for a while." ”

Bent nodded slightly, the light in his eyes dimmed, a little disappointed with Meron's performance, or a father's expectations of his son disappointed again.

Bent's eyes were very vague, but he was still noticed by Meron, which made Meron's heart lift.

There is no misunderstanding Meron doesn't care, there is a chance to prove it in the future, don't let the metal materials go to the bath!

"In this way, I will bring some prey this time, Lord Earl can measure how many metal materials can be exchanged, and when I make a weapon sample, people will bring the samples and prey to exchange for materials, and then ......"

Before Meron could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bent raising his hand: "I've seen it, it's good." This time, I will give you 300 catties of metal ore, 300 catties of wheat, 10 cans of beer, 10 cans of fruit wine, and 2 boxes of cheese. Looking forward to your weapon samples, hopefully that day will come sooner. ”

Meron was stunned, unable to figure out what kind of Bant was doing.

Just like that, Meron thought that it would be good to get more than 100 catties of materials with Eliza's help, but now he gives 300 catties and brings so much food, so he would not be so nerve-wracking to think of a way.

"Go ahead, it won't hurt you to talk to Koda more. I'm old, tired for so many days and want to rest early. Without waiting for Meron to express his gratitude, Bent waved Meron away.

"The Earl never grows old, always so young! But since the Earl is tired, rest early, and I'll talk to Koda for a while. "The people are driving people away, and Meron can only turn around and leave.

Bent's last words were to tell Meron that Bent would grow old one day, and that it would never hurt to have a good relationship with Korda, the heir to the earl.

If it was the original Meron, he would have listened to Bent's intention to chat with Koda or something, but he definitely didn't understand the meaning and intentions of Bent's words.

Meron didn't know that a gleam flashed in his eyes when he had just left Bent, and he muttered, "The hunting level of the Onid team is enough for this kid to eat, but if there is so much left...... Especially those wolves, the vast majority of them killed with one move. ”

In Bent's personal guards, the combat effectiveness of the Oneid team belongs to the middle and lower levels, after all, they were only sent as Meron's honor guard, and their main role is to support the faΓ§ade, and they can usually get some prey for Meron to satisfy their hunger.

There's really nothing to talk about chatting with Koda, based on the original Merlon's performance, saying that Koda will be the same as Bante, thinking that he is bragging.

Meron didn't want to be bored, so he just went to say hello.

Early the next morning, Meron said goodbye to Bant and Eliza, and rushed back to the territory with his newly assigned members of the convoy and resources.

It is worth mentioning that when she left, Eliza brought a lot of fruit and cheese to Meron, which was basically the limit of what she could control alone as the mistress of the castle, which made Meron sigh about her luck for a long time.
