Chapter 8 Qiankun College

"What?" said Carpenter Tang, thinking that he had misheard, and asked again.

"I mean make one more piece. ”

"Make another one?"

"Yes, this time I changed it, and I don't need steel strings. ”

The owner of the wooden shop frowned and said, "Are you afraid that Lao Liu won't be able to fight?" ”

Ye Wuxian nodded: "Yes, such a thin string is difficult to make, it is better to use a chrysalis string." ”

Although Ye Wuxian really wants to use nylon strings, there is definitely no one here, nylon strings are a chemically synthesized string, which is a man-made fiber.

Then for the sake of insurance, we can only retreat to the use of natural strings.

Ye Wuxian originally wanted to make two kinds of guitars, one folk guitar, which is steel strings, and one is a classical guitar, which is nylon strings or natural animal strings.

There are no steel strings, there are no nylon strings, only animal strings.

There was a production experience, and this production went very smoothly, the classical guitar buttons are different from the folk guitar, most of the others are the same, and only need to correct the buttons.

Not long after a new guitar was born, Ye Wuxian and the boss of the wooden shop Tang went to the musical instrument store again, fortunately, the music country advocates music, there are many stores, there are enough stores to find the strings, and the old Tang is also familiar with this article, even if the store is closed at night, they can be called up to sell things, and finally found the strings they want after running several stores.

When Ye Wuxian returned to the blacksmith shop, the strong man was still practicing.

Seeing this, Ye Wuxian said, "How can you make such thin and hard strings?"

Blacksmith Liu didn't speak but smiled, at this time the furnace was blazing, and there was a stone mold on it, and the strong man shouted: "Get up!"

He picked up the abrasive with pliers and threw it directly into the water tank next to him.

After cooling, Liu picked up the abrasive tool and visited the table, and motioned for Ye Wuxian to open it and take a look.

Ye Wuxian was skeptical, and when he opened it, a thin line of crystal sparkling was lying in it.

Ye Wuxian picked it up casually, it was still a little warm on it, the thin line was as thin as a hair, Ye Wuxian pulled it, and the face of his hand hurt.

That's right, it's it!

"Blacksmith Liu, how did you do this?"

"Hehe, I said I could fight, but you still don't believe it!"

Ye Wuxian scratched his head and said, "I didn't say I didn't believe it!"

Liu took out something and handed it to Ye Wuxian to see, it was an iron needle.

But Ye Wuxian still didn't understand what this string had to do with the needle.

Blacksmith Liu pointed to the string and said: "This needle is made by me with iron wire, and it is also a game I usually make, and then I use an iron needle to pierce the abrasive, and then pour in molten iron, and this iron wire is made." ”

"I see!"

Blacksmith Liu means that if this wire is made directly, it will definitely not be done, and he has an iron needle as thick as the wire, the anvil passes through the abrasive, leaves a pinhole under the abrasive, and then pours in molten iron, and after it cools, it is pulled out to become an iron wire!

Ye Wuxian had another question at this time, the iron wire made at this time was longer than the length of the iron needle, why was this?

At this time, he saw Blacksmith Liu take out two grinding tools that were put together.

"I see!" Ye Wuxian suddenly realized, if an iron needle wears an abrasive, if an iron needle wears two abrasives, and then the two abrasives are put together, won't the two iron needles grow.

It's just that although this iron needle is thin, it is still a little thicker than what he wants, and Ye Wuxian still has a headache, so he explained the matter to Blacksmith Liu.

The blacksmith smiled, took out a box from the counter, and as soon as he opened the box, Ye Wuxian laughed twice.

This box is full of iron needles of varying thicknesses, I didn't expect the blacksmith Liu to have this thing, don't ask if it must be usually made of grinding stones, it's really too idle, but the blacksmith is idle, if it weren't for the blacksmith to have this thing, this folk guitar is really hanging!

As for this hardness, Blacksmith Liu said, this is a mixed metal, the main material is iron, and then other metals are added, which is the material for making swords.

I see, Ye Wuxian couldn't help but sigh, it turns out that the hardness of the iron in the world here has reached this level, which is completely comparable to steel.

Ye Wuxian took out the chrysalis strings bought from the musical instrument store, the strings of the musical instrument are not kneaded by a chrysalis wire, but based on a chrysalis wire, and the second chrysalis is wound around it, just like a spiral structure, so that the strings are not easy to break, and they are extremely handy.

The first and second strings of the folk guitar are single-stringed, and because they are so small, there is no need to wrap them around them, but from the third one onwards, they are wound with silk like this.

After the explanation was clear, the blacksmith indicated that the strings were wrapped around him.

It turns out that the strings made by the blacksmith are wound around a string by hand.

This is a delicate job, although the strong man looks like a rough man on the surface, he did not expect to be meticulous in doing this kind of thing, and he is extremely patient.

The blacksmith asked Ye Wuxian to go to his room to sleep first, he would wrap silk tonight, Ye Wuxian did not refuse, because there were more important things to do tomorrow.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Ye Wuxian woke up, and after waking up, he walked to the courtroom, there was a box on the table, Ye Wuxian opened the six strings in the box, which were the six guitar strings that Ye Wuxian wanted, but he didn't expect it to be really played!

Carpenter Tang was already asleep on the table, while Blacksmith Liu was yawning and drinking tea, and when he saw Ye Wuxian, he said, "How about it, is it suitable?"

Tang blacksmith's craftsmanship is not said, a string is like a natural one, and the hand is like a silk thread.

"Fit!"

"Haha, it's good to use it, it's good to use it!"

Ye Wuxian carefully put the strings on, tuned the tone, and gently plucked the strings, the sound from the strings was transmitted to the guitar sound hole, and then came out by the sound control, the sound was crisp and pleasant.

Ye Wuxian arched his hand and said, "Thank you Blacksmith Liu!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome, you can go quickly, the entrance ceremony for the freshmen of Qiankun Academy seems to have begun. ”

Ye Wuxian nodded, carrying two guitars on his back, one left and one right, and before he stepped out of the blacksmith shop, he turned around and asked Blacksmith Liu: "Where is Qiankun Academy?"

......

Blacksmith Liu almost didn't fall off his chair after hearing this.

"It's the first time I've come to Yindu, and it's normal to not know where I am. ”

Blacksmith Liu nodded incredulously.

However, Blacksmith Liu didn't know much about the specific location of Qiankun Academy, he only knew that this Qiankun Academy was somewhere in Beicheng, and Tang Mu went home to sleep when it was finished, so Ye Wuxian had to plan to ask someone else about it.

Explaining his intentions, Carpenter Tang told him that there was an academy procurement point in the west of Beicheng, and asked Ye Wuxian to go over there to have a look.

Bidding farewell to Carpenter Tang, Ye Wuxian embarked on the road to Qiankun Academy with two guitars on his back.

It's also very convenient to find people all the way to ask.

A small building, a few big words on the door plaque "Qiankun College Procurement Point" is good, it is here.
