Chapter 102: Caught
"Hey, I thought it was who, so polite, it turned out to be a little girl!"
"What are you doing running from a girl's house? I don't think you look like you're going to buy a few shovels and shovels to go back, say. ”
Old man Xing casually put the hammer on the stone platform on the side, picked up the kettle and poured it into his mouth, Gurlum drank the whole pot of water, and went directly to the back with the kettle.
"I'm here to ask you to make a dagger, and I've heard that only you can make a dagger that satisfies me, so I'm here." Gu Shendui hurriedly caught up.
The old man walked to the water tank, picked up the scoop and poured a few more sips of water, and then he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and wiped the corners of his mouth.
"Old man, my craft is not the best in the whole capital, I can only say that I have more experience, and I have lived a long time, I want to know who told you that only I can fight a weapon that meets your requirements."
The cloudy eyeballs burst into sharp light, and although it is not expressly forbidden to build weapons privately, few people will say it so aggressively.
And he is second to none in crafting weapons, and he doesn't know how many sharp and dangerous famous knives he has created in private, but only a handful know this.
"It's the king of Bei'an, and he also drew the drawings for me, can you see if you can do it!" Gu Shenwan took out the drawings from his cuffs.
There is not just one, but two or three drawings from various angles.
Gu Shentwilight also added some Chinese numbers above to ensure that others could understand them.
It's just that there are a lot of requirements, and they have requirements for almost all aspects, and even Gu Shendui took the initiative to choose the materials to be created by himself.
The first is to be dense enough, and the second is to be as thick as possible.
However, the volume should not be too large, and for the sake of insurance, of course, it cannot be handed over to others with full trust.
With a twinkle in his eyes, although this drawing is really complicated, some of the requirements in all aspects are clearly written, and even specially marked that there can be no deviation.
In this way, if you change to a person who is not experienced enough, you will definitely not be able to do it so finely, but it is okay for him to be serious.
It can be seen that the person who recommended Gu Shen to come is very clear about his ability, and it is understandable if that person is the king of Bei'an.
"Okay, you're going to have to see for yourself what you're made of, right? I'll take you to my collection. ”
Xing Lao has nothing to be dissatisfied with, even if it makes him feel offended, but he is old and refined, and he will not easily offend the big people who have backers behind him.
After walking around, Gu Shendui noticed that although the door was not big, there was something else inside, which was more lively and complicated.
Even in the entire blacksmith shop, there were not only Xing Lao, but also five or six big men, each doing different things, most of them were sweating profusely, and they were very nervous about striking iron.
Passing through the courtyard, a group of young men who were striking iron finally came to the dusty collection room at the back.
Although it was a little dusty, the doorknob was clean, so it was obvious that people often came in.
"You can take a walk around yourself, and I'll pick out a few suitable materials."
Gu Shendui walked in this big room by himself.
The windows are small and closed, making the light in the room a little dim.
But it was outside in the afternoon and the sun was warm, so the light in the room was enough for her to see clearly.
There are a lot of shelves inside, close together, and the space left is enough for a person to walk in it.
These things are stored separately and divided according to different qualities.
Gu Shenwan first excluded the lightest and the heaviest, most of the heaviest were large pieces of material, and she wanted to find materials with high density.
That is, although it is small, it will be heavier.
Most of the materials she saw were the most basic materials, and there were many ores she didn't recognize, but she saw a special case that was much smaller than its material after walking through a Jiazi.
Hurriedly walked over and put it in the hands of a heavy feeling, put it under the light source and looked closely, and found that it seemed to be a piece of meteoric iron.
The meteorite iron passed through the atmosphere and fell to the ground, which was naturally very dense, but Gu Shendui did not dare to guarantee that it was strong enough.
Although there are many things that can be made of meteorite in the novel, and most of them even have miraculous effects, but now that they are really cooled in front of her, she can't help but wonder, this material can really be used to make weapons?
"It's a pity that I didn't look for a few books on materials before, otherwise I wouldn't have to find natural raw materials, just make alloys."
Gu Shenwan thought about it for a while, but he still took it first, and went around a few more times, but there was still no good gain.
Old man Xing had already stood at the door waiting for her, and he was a little surprised to see her coming over with a black stone.
"You can really pick out a piece...... These are the materials I think are suitable, and as a young lady who knows nothing about striking iron, I would have guessed you couldn't fault anything. ”
In the end, he really picked out a good material, and he originally considered whether this would be very suitable.
"This strange stone is good, and it can also be used to craft weapons, but I got it by accident and haven't used it, so you need to take the risk."
Gu Shenwan shook his head, still firmly ready to use this piece of meteorite in his hand.
There will be a lot of ordinary iron impurities, and smelting is a very important problem, but cloud iron itself has been removed from many impurities through the atmosphere, and it is extremely pure iron.
In the case that the current process cannot be reached, the use of meteorite iron will undoubtedly save a lot of trouble, and the final product is not easy to make mistakes.
To be honest, she was actually a little worried about whether the ancient smelting technology could pass the test, and there were a lot of impurities in the iron ore.
Just by relying on artificiality, like those people outside, it burns red again and again, and I don't know how many times it takes to achieve sharpness.
It's better to save some trouble.
"How long will it take to see the finished product?"
"Don't worry, you can stay and visit first, walk two more laps, as for how long it will take to see the finished product, then according to those requirements on your drawings, it will take five days."
"It's better to rush out."
"In addition to the knife itself, it is necessary to customize a special handle and more than 100 needles as thin as a cow's hair, which takes more time."
Gu Shenwan also knew that it was difficult to create such a delicate weapon for a while, especially if it was customized, and many requirements needed to be carefully polished to achieve it.
Although I was a little anxious, I could still nod my head, and I would spend my time if I spent it, anyway, it was just a matter of waiting for a while.
"I'm not going to stay, I'll come back in a few days to see how it goes." Gu Shendui was about to leave last night, but he hadn't passed through the group of iron-striking people yet.
I saw a group of strong men who put down the things in their hands and silently blocked the only way.
