Chapter 128: I'm a Little Blacksmith
"You have a new side quest to claim, please go to the quest information bar and pick it up yourself." The system prompt sounded in Li Bin's ears.
When I called out the task information list, I saw that the missed system task was flashing.
"Main quest: Establish your own money bank in the Great Qi Kingdom, and issue silver tickets that can be circulated.
Side Quest: Complete the proficiency of the forging skill to forge a weapon of higher quality A. ”
After Li Bin took over the task of forging skills, the types of weapons that he could forge at present, the forging process and the method appeared in his mind.
Skill: Forging
Proficiency: 0
Forgeable weapons: daggers, throwing knives, money darts.
Forgeable Weapon Quality Level: E
After receiving the task, Li Bin pondered: "The main task of building a money village requires a huge amount of real money and silver as the principal, and at present, the silver money that can be used in Futumen is only hundreds of thousands of taels, which is far from enough to open a money village; Second, to open a money bank, you must go to Beijing to dredge up relations, and such a major event as opening a money bank cannot be done without the official support of the imperial court. The opening of the bank was postponed in advance, at least until the second batch of ocean-going trading fleets returned to bring back the trade proceeds.
Just in the first ocean trade, a shipload of pig iron materials for forging weapons was brought back from the pirate's lair, and this ship's pig iron forging materials should be enough for me to toss around. ”
Li Bin pushed to the sect forging room to investigate the forging facilities on the spot, and all kinds of forging equipment in the sect forging room were readily available, which was more complete and sophisticated than the equipment in the weapons spectrum in Guangzhou City. It is completely available for Li Bin to show his strength and forge high-quality divine weapons.
There were no surprises in the martial arts dungeon, at dawn on the second day, Li Bin instructed his disciples to go to the port to carry pig iron and fine charcoal, prepare raw materials, and Li Bin was ready to go on the field himself and be a happy little blacksmith.
The mountain road of Luofu Mountain has been completely renovated and expanded, and it is no longer as laborious to carry large and bulky items up the mountain as before.
In three days, Li Bin's pig iron and charcoal raw materials have been transported up the mountain.
Li Bin, who was in contact with the forging industry for the first time, relied on systematic forging technology books and knew that pig iron could not be used as a material for making weapons, and that it was necessary to go through a process to remove the carbon content and impurities contained in pig iron.
With the help of the system, Li Bin can not go through the complex process of melting pig iron into ironmaking and then forging it that is commonly used in the Great Qi Kingdom, which not only has a low production efficiency, but also the quality of the forged weapons will not be too high, which is the method used by general blacksmith shops and weapons spectrum.
Li Bin decided to adopt the steel frying technique recorded in detail in the systematic forging book, that is, after the pig iron is heated to melt or basically melted, it is stirred in the furnace, and the oxygen in the air is used to carbonize the pig iron to obtain steel. This new steelmaking process is a revolutionary improvement of the forging process. The pig iron is melted and stirred in the furnace to turn into molten steel, which is injected into the ingot mold through the steel drum and condensed into the ingot.
This set of special steel ingot mold casting equipment is available in the forging room of Futu Gate, and it is estimated that this is the only one in the Great Qi Kingdom.
With the steel ingot die casting equipment, Li Bin can convert a large number of pig iron that cannot be forged into high-quality raw materials for forging weapons, steel ingots. With good forging materials, as long as they are honed and improved in forging skills, forging high-quality weapons is just around the corner.
These steel ingots made by Li Bin's special steel frying technology and die casting process are all excellent raw materials for first-class weapons, and the business opportunities are unlimited. The entire Great Qi Kingdom can do this, only Li Bin is alone, and the Futumen family is one!
In the first few days, Li Bin only concentrated on one thing, that is, converting a large amount of pig iron into steel ingots.
When the Futu Gate heard that the master had plunged into the forging room, he had not seen Li Bin practicing for a few days, thinking that Master Li Bin was going to change his career to become a blacksmith, everyone was shocked, and everyone gathered around the sect's forging room to visit.
Chen Xiaoqi, who has always been bold, mustered up the courage to ask under the urging of everyone: "Master, why did you become a blacksmith?" ”
Li Bin has been busy for several days, and he is in a depressed mood, so he replied angrily: "Get out!" Seven days later, if you can't catch the ten tricks of being a teacher, you will be punished as a blacksmith for a month! ”
Chen Xiaoqi was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue, sighed and walked towards the Sect Weapon Martial Field. As he walked, he muttered to himself, "Ten moves!" Don't talk about me, even the "martial idiot" Luo Datong and the genius Yunshi may not be able to do it. ”
After a while, the forging sound of "clanging" came from the sect's forging room, and Li Bin began to build the lowest-level dagger weapon according to the method in the forging process book.
An hour passed, Li Bin created 7 daggers, and the proficiency of forging skills increased from 0 to 7. I can't see the end at all.
Forging skills are not like alchemy skills, alchemy skills can be tricky, four open and practice, forging skills are a radish and a pit, Sensei said that four open, even double opening is impossible, don't even think about it! It's the rhythm that tires people to death.
Looking at the mountains of steel ingots, Li Bin had an indescribable sense of powerlessness, forging this pile of steel ingots like a mountain into all kinds of weapons, and the proficiency of forging skills may not be able to be completed.
The experience of alchemy skill improvement told Li Bin that after the proficiency of these skills was improved to a certain level, it was very difficult to further improve it.
While building the dagger, Li Bin pondered: "The improvement of forging skills is not something that can be achieved overnight, and other things that should be done every day cannot be delayed, such as daily martial arts copy strategies, and daily practice cannot be delayed." "Report ...... Master! The Lingnan garrison mutinied, wantonly looted Guangzhou and Boluo Town, now the people in the villages and towns of Lingnan Sijing are panicked, everyone is in danger, the people of Guangzhou Port and Boluo Town are in blood, please go down the mountain to quell the chaos, what to do, please show the master. ”
Hearing the Pegasus report, Li Bin frowned and asked, "The Lingnan garrison mutinied?" Where is the main force of the mutinous rebel army now? ”
Tan Ma Yu said: "The mutinous rebels are divided into two routes, one way is confronting the disciples of the Futumen led by Uncle Shi at the port of Guangzhou, seeing the intention of the rebel army, they want to attack the port and loot on a large scale; Another rebel army is looting in the town of Boluo at the foot of Futu Mountain. ”
Li Bin threw down the matter at hand, and said in his heart: "Looting the port, this is worth it!" He ordered loudly: "Immediately let all the disciples of the Futu Sect gather in the main hall!" ”
After the half-pillar incense time, nearly 100 formal disciples and registered disciples of the Futu Sect lined up in the main hall, and Li Bin ordered loudly: "The matter is urgent, Datong!" You led everyone, galloped to the aid of the uncle, and when you arrived at the port, everything was under the command of your uncle Zhang Ju! ”
Luo Datong stepped forward to answer the order and responded loudly: "Obey the master's orders!" ”
