Gao Xianda left the palace, went to Yangliu Hutong, and according to the old eunuch's instructions, found Zhang Laosan's blacksmith's shop. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In front of the shop stood an old man of almost sixty years old, with dark skin and gray hair, and a muscular body that had been cultivated by the fire for many years.

It was getting late, and he was closing the stall at this time, when he saw Gao Xianda coming over, he glanced Gao Xianda up and down.

"Who are you looking for?" He asked.

In order not to be conspicuous, Gao Xianda had already taken off his official clothes and changed into civilian clothes at this time. But he was richly dressed and rode on a burning cloud, and he didn't look like a man who would come to buy things from a small shop on the back street.

"I'm looking for Zhang Sanye." Gao Xianda turned over and dismounted to show his intention.

"I'm Zhang Laosan." The old man said, "Do you want to mend the pot or nail the horseshoe?" A horseshoe is a tael of silver, which is not returned or exchanged. ”

This is the normal business of a blacksmith shop, how many ordinary people buy swords?

Gao Xianda handed over the old eunuch's name post, and Zhang Laosan's attitude immediately changed, and said, "It turned out to be Wang's husband's person." Come in and talk about it. ”

Gao Xianda followed Zhang Laosan inside, bypassing the iron-striking stove, and there was a hut behind it, with some swords and armor hanging in the house. Although the house was simple, the things hanging on it were of good craftsmanship.

Gao Xianda knew that the old eunuch had not lied to him.

"Now in this world, there are not many people who know my shop." Zhang Laosan said, "Say, what do you want, armor or weapons?" But let's talk about it first, I'm not cheap here. ”

Gao Xianda smiled: "The third master seems to be very confident." I have a complete set of cotton armor in my hand, just some iron pieces inserted in it, I feel that the defense is still a little insufficient, and I want to ask you to help me transform it. ”

Zhang Laosan said: "You don't have to call me the third master, I was born with a cheap life, and I can't afford it." You are a friend of Wang's husband, and you have an identity if you want to come, just call me the third child. Show me your armor. ”

Gao Xianda had long known that if he suddenly took out a large set of things from his watch, he would scare others, so he packed all these things in advance and put them on his horse. I had already brought it when I entered the house just now. At this time, the whole package was handed to Zhang Laosan.

Zhang Laosan looked at the pieces of equipment and admired: "The texture of this armor is very good, much stronger than that used in the army." Where did you get it? ”

Gao Xianda said: "Naturally, it is the king's husband's curry, and if it is an ordinary thing, there is no need to trouble you." ”

Zhang Laosan nodded and asked, "How do you want to get it?" ”

He spoke with confidence, and at first glance he had a bottom in his heart, Gao Xianda was secretly happy in his heart, and said: "Since it is armor, it is used for defense." My idea was to maximize the armor's defense. I have a lot of strength, but I don't care about the weight. Please sew as many pieces of nail as you can, even if it is a whole sheet of steel. ”

Zhang Laosan said: "Your method is not good. ”

He is an expert and has his own unique perspective on the problem, he explains: "You want armor, not a coffin, if you use a whole steel plate, you can't move, not to be slaughtered?" ”

Gao Xianda said: "I'm just making an analogy. ”

Zhang Laosan said: "I understand what you mean, I mean, the higher the armor, the better. Rather, it should be as flexible as possible while ensuring a certain degree of defense capability. Not being attacked is the key, otherwise you really build a house for yourself with steel plates, and you won't be able to withstand the bombardment. ”

"But then we have to ensure the basic defense. After all, the tip of the knife has no eyes. Gao Xianda said.

"I didn't say defense doesn't matter." Zhang Laosan said, "I'm telling you that the lighter the armor, the better." Although you are born with divine powers, sir, the situation of war is always unpredictable. After a long battle, you will always get tired. The weight on your arms, in particular, can affect how effective you can fight. You can swing your sword a thousand times, but how many times can you swing it when you put on your armor? Instead of this, it is better to use heavier weapons, which can kill more. ”

Gao Xianda felt that he had a point, and said, "Then it depends on your ......."

"I think it's important not to increase the weight, but to reduce it as much as possible." Zhang Laosan said.

"But this defense is ......," Gao Xianda said.

"If you simply use stacks of iron pieces to increase your defense, Husband Wang won't let you come to me. The horseshoe is better than mine, and there are many people. Zhang Laosan smiled, took a piece of "iron" from the side, and put it in Gao Xianda's hand.

It looked like an iron lump, but Gao Xianda weighed it with his hands, but it was much lighter than expected, only less than half of the weight of iron.

"Surprise me." Zhang Laosan said with a smile, then picked up a hammer from the side, took back the metal block in Gao Xianda's hand, put it on the anvil next to him and smashed it twice. Zhang Laosan strikes iron all day long, and his strength is not small, but when his two hammers go down, the metal block is only slightly deformed.

"How? Awesome! Zhang Laosan said proudly, "This is the Ruoyu Divine Iron that I have refined after a long time of testing with a variety of metals, and the weight is only half of that of ordinary steel, but the hardness is not bad at all." ”

Gao Xianda looked at it for a while, and said in his heart: "What Ruoyu Shentie, isn't this an aluminum alloy!" ”

However, if you can make aluminum alloy in this era, the third child in this chapter can be regarded as a god. Gao Xianda said: "Great, third brother! What a discovery! Can you replace all the pieces of iron in my armor with this Wakaha Divine Iron? Money is not an issue! As he spoke, Gao Xianda took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and handed it over.

Zhang Laosan didn't accept the silver ticket, but said with a smile: "What's the hurry, this is just one of the three divine irons I invented, and the remaining two are even more magical." Well, the price is naturally higher. ”

Gao Xianda took out another silver ticket of 1,000 taels, put it aside, and said, "The price is negotiable!" ”

Zhang Laosan looked at Gao Xianda and said politely: "You are a friend of Wang's husband, won't it hurt your feelings to talk about money!" "But he's not slow to collect money at all.

Saying that, Zhang Laosan took out another piece of metal and showed it to Gao Xianda. Then he put it on top of the anvil next to him, he raised the hammer and said, "Look at it! Then the hammer fell heavily.

But with a "snap". The piece of metal was smashed and dented. Zhang Laosan's hammer didn't stop, and he smashed it a few times in a row, and the piece of metal was smashed into a cake by his hammer! (To be continued.) )
