Chapter 34: The Life of a Blacksmith from Scratch
When John arrived at the blacksmith's workshop, the sun was already rising due above. John touched his head when he got out of the car: "I didn't expect it to be so far, from District 1 to this workshop city." Selena stood up from the carriage to the carriage, and the chariot (not wrong) stretched out two small buds and began to grow, the vines first downward, and then in the middle of the two vines when the front touched the ground, and then grew in opposite directions, hooking each other to form a staircase, and Selena stepped on the stairs to go down.
Although John knew that the carriage was alive, he didn't expect to be so smart, and the corners of his eyes curled. Selena got out of the carriage and gently patted the wheels with her hand twice, and then saw the flower bones that were originally hanging on the headlights next to the carriage and opened.
Can this be? The corners of John's eyes twitched even more.
The carriage here was happy, but the white horse over there was jealous, turned his head and gently tugged at Selena's skirt with his mouth. Selena just played with the white horse and the carriage on the road.
After playing for a while, John saw that the people around him began to pay attention to this side, and John interrupted Selena: "Okay Selena, you can play again when you go back, someone has noticed it here." Selena stopped her movements and straightened out her slightly wrinkled dress: "Hmph, how can a group of mortals understand the thoughts of a noble god?"
John's blacksmith's workshop is located on the avenue near the workshop city, which is convenient for the loading and unloading of ore and the transportation of finished weapons, and this workshop is very large, there are ten forging rooms alone, which means that this workshop can meet the needs of at least ten blacksmiths at the same time. The ore warehouse behind the house is full of all kinds of copper ore and iron ore, as well as various minerals as additives, and they are also well placed. The fuel chamber is neatly stacked with highly efficient coal and a special accelerant that heats the fire to melt the ore in an instant.
John picked up the hammer, weighed it twice, swung it twice, and said to Selena: "Selena, I'm going to get ready, maybe it will take a long time today, how are you going to play?" Selena tilted her head: "Big man, don't worry, I won't be in danger." John covered his forehead: "I'm afraid you'll hurt someone." Forget it, you go to the shopping street to play, come and pick me up in the evening, we will bring back the equipment we have built, and take it to the equipment store to sell the day after tomorrow. If you don't sell it again, you won't even have to eat when the food stored in the villa is gone. Selena stuck her tongue out at John, ran out the door and got into the carriage, and the white horse pulled the carriage out of the city slowly.
John watched Selena walk away from the door. John didn't have anything to worry about about security, on the contrary, John was worried that some guy who didn't have long eyes would run out and provoke the little ancestor of this world, and it was very likely that this city would fly into the sky. John hasn't forgotten how Selena's cane came from, it was turned into a spear blessed by Selena, and that spear, in Selena's words, if it can exert its ability, it can let people know what it means to fly freely with just one blow. Coupled with the carriage and the white horse, they are all at the god level.
But fortunately, this little ancestor is not the kind of person who is willful, if he is provoked, he will probably repair the person who provoked him...... Right?
Suddenly, John was a little uneasy and let her go out alone.
Shaking his head, John turned around and entered the workshop, not thinking about what he had, if there was really no equipment to sell, and if there was no income, he really couldn't even sell the cheapest brown bread in the market. Although the villa is stored enough ingredients for half a month's consumption in the family of a large nobleman, neither John nor Selena can cook. Anyway, Selena said that there was a miracle that was released there, and there is no need to worry about the deterioration of the ingredients in three or five months, John plans to learn cooking first, how can people who love food not do it?
In his thoughts, John had already brought the coal and accelerant and carried the ore twice. Looking at the ore stacked next to the stove, John began to plan the equipment he would build later.
In the library of the villa, John found a map of the world's equipment, and from that book, he found that most of the users of the swords in this world were members of the church and noble families. This is due to the fact that many gods have crosses in their crests, and many saints in the church also have crosses on their stigmas, so the cross is convenient for the gods to intersect. The gauntlet of the sword and the hilt of the sword formed a cross, so in the earliest days only the people of the church could use it. Later, many princes and nobles were awarded honorary titles such as knights of the apologists by the church, and they also had the qualification to wear swords, and slowly now, even the nobles' guards can wear swords. But this is a bottom line, if you want to wear a sword, at least you have to sell yourself to a noble family, commoners can't wear a sword, no matter how rich they are. This was one of the reasons why the Templars were convinced that John was a knight at the time.
After knowing this soft rule, John naturally wouldn't build a lot of sword equipment. This time John was going to build a knife and a one-handed hammer.
Because the blade is curved, the knife does not form a standard cross, so it is implicitly allowed by the upper class. Therefore, this time John built mainly knives, with a few swords to attract business and attract the attention of the nobility and the church, and of course, some of them were also used to make armor.
Eventually, John chose to base his equipment on the appearance of the Spectre Saber and the knives in the Equipment Atlas, and made two more one-handed straight swords and small shields with one-handed swords, two two-handed swords with longer hilts, and finally five one-handed hammers. By the time John had finished the equipment, it was already mid-afternoon. John put the equipment away, sat in the foyer of the workshop, took out the equipment map from the space, and slowly looked at it himself. After all, he's a blacksmith now, so he can't even understand what kind of swords the people here use.
After watching for about an hour, John heard the doorbell ring at the gate, and thought it was Selena back, so he looked up and looked at the door.
Unexpectedly, the person who came was not Selena, but two children with guards.
This man, a woman and two children, just by the clothes they are wearing, they can be seen to be rich and noble, and the gold wire sewing pattern on the edge of the clothes is an inconspicuous sign of the aristocratic family. Could it be that these two are nobles?
John thought about this, and before he could open his mouth, the girl of the two children spoke first: "Excuse me, sir, we are here to buy weapons." ”
