The brother and friend of the Star Luo Empire, the father and son, Xiao Xia Ling, can't see it.

Now he has returned to Wuhun City.

Waiting for him are the already impatient Lou Gao and the equally eagerly awaited Titan.

Thousand forging.

This was nothing to the blacksmiths of the Dragon King Legend.

Skilled workers only.

It can really be called a hand.

The previous high-rise forging had already touched the edge of the spirit forging, and even played the melting and forging technology in the casting more than the blacksmiths of later generations.6

Within a few days of coming to Wuhun City, he had already learned a thousand forgings from the Titans.

However, since Xia Ling has not returned, the authority of the Martial Spirit Research Institute is not open to the public.

At the same time, no blacksmith dared to make a decision to teach blacksmithing without permission.

Therefore, a large number of blacksmiths who came from the metal capital together had to report to the factory of the logistics department first.

Study simply, then take the exam.

Only after passing the exam can you officially enter the work of the Martial Spirit Research Institute.

Even if you are mainly forging, you must have basic scientific literacy.

It's just that you don't need to go too deep, you just have this concept in your head.

It doesn't matter if these people don't look at it, they are shocked when they see it.

The logistics department of the Wuhun Hall is in the metal casting, and these big blacksmiths who think they are experienced are already a little incomprehensible.

The work efficiency of the Martial Soul Research Institute is very high.

Not long after the finished products that have completed the test have just come out, the logistics department with the highest priority has already taken the lead in completing the assembly.

After the automated production, we will make a few units by hand and use them.

A large number of metal particles and metal powders that have been ground into small pieces are contained in a giant dump bucket, and are fed into the conveyor port by a metal pulley block and a robotic arm.

The soul power heater, which is made of a thousand forged metals, quickly heats furnace after furnace of molten metal.

This alloy is a new recipe experimented with by the blacksmiths of the Wuhun Palace.

The addition of a part of the powder of rare metals is enough to make the strength of these seemingly ordinary alloys deteriorate.

The strength can be said to be far superior to that of the iron mother that the fine craftsman has worked so hard to cast with a hammer.

Plate armor made of this alloy is difficult to break through even the original Zhuge Crossbow, unless you use a special piercing type of crossbow arrow.

Since there is no computer to control it, some links still rely on manual work.

Under the manual manipulation of the soul master, the golden-red molten metal was injected into one after another into the casting cavities that had been prepared long ago.

Under the action of gravity, the molten metal fills the cavity.

Then the conveyor belt made of soul beast leather was sent into the pre-made condensation formation in turn.

The most sinister first-level ice array, under the manipulation of a great soul master, produced an effect that was far a hundred times better than the slowdown target.

The use of weak ice gas to cool down and accelerate the cooling of the internal casting of the mold.

Just following the conveyor belt from the ice circle for some distance, these castings have reached the standard of being able to be unpacked.

The initially minted parts were manually unpacked and removed by the waiting soul masters, and then the boxes were thrown onto another conveyor belt and returned to their original locations, and the parts were transported to the subsequent blacksmiths.

The blacksmiths then cleaned and polished the castings by hand.

After completion, the conveyor belt is put into the conveyor belt again, and the heating up, mechanical forging, quenching, tempering and other processes are collectively carried out to ensure its standardization and reliability.

The metal parts, which are poured from several different production lines, are finally assembled in the final assembly department.

By the time the workers finished assembling it, a brand-new and improved version of the Tangmen secret weapon or plate armor had already been baked.

Except for the core metal bow spring part that needs to be made manually, all other parts of the Tangmen secret weapon have been able to be mass-produced.

As long as the steel output and the number of workers can keep up, the Wuhun Hall can pull up a 10,000-level Zhuge God crossbow plate armor force in just one month.

That speed is faster than a hundred dollars of mobilization.

Xia Ling's goal is to equip the ordinary army of Wuhun Hall with more than two strengthened Zhuge Divine Crossbows, a full set of plate armor, and a large number of ordinary hidden weapons.

Every class of twelve people is a class, and each class is equipped with a giant Zhuge bed crossbow stored in the soul guide, equipped with a number of special giant crossbow arrows.

In this way, every ordinary soldier can be regarded as a Soul Sect-level combat power, and each squad can be regarded as a Soul Emperor-level combat power.

The enhanced version of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow will kill even the Soul King's carelessness.

Giant Zhuge Bed Crossbow......

As long as you can hit, you can easily beat the Soul Emperor into a sieve!

It's just that now that the giant Zhuge bed crossbow is there, there is still nothing to say about the soul guide.

Why is it that in the peerless Tang Gate era, the Ming era has not made much progress, but the secret weapon is not as good as the soul guide?

Nonsense.

It is also made in a small workshop, and one person can only produce one weapon at the same time, so of course whoever is powerful is bullish.

However, the soul guide has a disadvantage, that is, the runes and circuits on the core module need to be hand-carved by the soul master.

If the assembly line is operated automatically, the hidden weapon of the pure mechanical structure will be temporarily superior to the soul guide.

Such an assembly-line operation directly looks at the craftsmen who came to the metal capital stupidly.

Including Lou Gao, Titan, and the Tang family's father and son, the four of them also saw such a scene for the first time.

All the blacksmiths were shaken.

They never imagined in their lives that metal parts could be produced like this.

Especially Tang San.

As an expert in bracket-like concealed weapons, he was responsible for manufacturing hidden weapons in Tangmen for more than 20 years in his previous life, and he never imagined that one day these bracket-like hidden weapons would be able to be produced in such large quantities.

It doesn't even take many blacksmiths!

Seeing the demented appearance of the three great god craftsmen, these former ordinary blacksmiths unconsciously showed a smile on their faces.

What's wrong with the divine craftsman, the three great divine craftsmen also have to kneel down and sing conquest in front of the assembly line.

Can you compare to our entire assembly line alone?

In terms of large-scale manufacturing, in the face of the power of industry, you are the god of blacksmiths, and it is not easy to come.

When Xia Ling returned to Wuhun City, what he saw was Lou Gao, Titan, Tang Hao, and Tang San, who had doubts about his life.

He personally went to the factory and summoned the newly recruited blacksmiths to a large conference room.

Xia Ling took the recent report submitted by the person in charge of the factory and glanced at it briefly.

At the same time, he knowingly asked the large group of blacksmiths questions.

"Come on, come on, talk freely, what do you feel, tell me."

After a few days of observation and learning, everyone has become familiar with the production line.

Tang San pondered for a moment and took the lead in speaking.

"I feel...... This one...... The production line is amazing. The combination of several people is much more efficient than a single blacksmith building it himself. I never imagined that one day these hidden weapons would be created like this. ”

The three Divine Craftsmen nodded in agreement.

Lou Gao said: "What Xiao San said is exactly what I want to say. Even with my full efforts, the production speed is far from the speed of this production line. ”

"And this thing doesn't need to rest, it can run all the time without getting too hot." Titan added.

Xia Ling nodded.

"You're right, fast manufacturing speed is indeed a big advantage of the assembly line. However, it has an even greater advantage that you haven't said. ”

"One more? What is that? Tang Hao couldn't help but ask.

Xia Ling took out two identical parts from the Qiankun Ring and showed them to the blacksmiths in the room.

"That is, the standardization and assembly line operation brought by the production line can ensure the consistency of the standard of parts to the greatest extent and reduce the error caused by habits when building individuals."

"There is no difference between a part of the same type that is produced on one line and another line. Even if something breaks down during use, you can easily fix it by replacing the accessories. ”

"But if these hidden weapons and parts are all made by different blacksmiths, it is inevitable that there will be errors."

"This would be extremely inconvenient for repairs, and even required repeated modifications by a blacksmith to meet the original standard of use."

"In this way, not to mention the great loss of manpower and material resources, and many talents have been dragged down on meaningless repetitive manual work."

"Only a few soul masters need to control the key nodes, and the rest of the work can be easily completed by ordinary people."

Xia Ling's words made many blacksmiths nod their heads in agreement.

In their working life, even if it was a sword, a hoe, or a shield, almost all of them were forged by one person.

The finished products have a strong personal touch.

In their previous understanding, only standard equipment of average quality could be mass-produced.

Now, after seeing the assembly line production, the deep-rooted thinking in their minds has been broken.

It's not that high-end products can't be mass-produced, it's just that the level of technology is not yet at home.

"The large-scale assembly line manufacturing in the factory will produce products at least ten times faster than manual work. In the coming years, it is inevitable that factories will replace traditional blacksmith shops. If you don't want to be a part of being replaced, you must study forging carefully. ”

After the meeting, Xia Ling contacted several former blacksmith grandmasters of the forging department, and now sixth-level blacksmiths, through the transmission jade plate.

Three of them were ordered to take over the work as the head of the teaching and research group.

At the same time, 20 blacksmiths above level 5 were selected to form a teaching group, draw up their own teaching plans and train the new blacksmiths.

After two months, he was going to check the results of their teaching.

There is nothing too difficult about the teaching objectives.

It's just the forging of mathematics, physics and chemistry and the basics.

Once, Xia Ling also taught them this.

It's just that they have been following the notes for a little longer to learn on their own.

When the time comes, you can identify who has the ability to enter the Martial Soul Research Institute to learn deeper forging skills and soul guides, and who will stay in the logistics department to continue to hone and learn.

In response, three sixth-level blacksmiths who had been selected as the head of the department protested.

They thought that Xia Ling was interfering with their work and their improvement in blacksmith skills.

But......

Protests were ineffective.

Not only is it ineffective.

If the pass rate is too low after two months, their research funding for the next quarter will be downgraded.

As soon as they heard that the research funds were going to be deducted, these guys who had originally planned to mix with each other immediately became serious.

In the afternoon of the same day, they rushed to the logistics department and gathered these "budding" blacksmiths to start a meeting.

It's not that Xia Ling is quite hands-off, it's that he really doesn't have time.

Hundreds of people!

Can you teach them one by one?

He only needs to teach the four of Titan, Lou Gao, Tang San, and Tang Hao.

Originally, for learning forging, Tang Hao paid more attention to soul power cultivation.

He didn't want to do anything about iron.

However, Xia Ling was simple in three sentences, and he cried and shouted that he was going to learn blacksmithing.

"When you learn spirit forging, I will help you accelerate Ah Yin's growth rate for 10,000 years."

"When you learn soul forging, I will help you accelerate Ah Yin's growth rate of 50,000 years."

"When do you learn to forge the sky, I will directly help Ah Yin transform into a human form."

In three sentences, I asked Haotian Douluo to be willing to give me his life.

Sure enough.

As soon as the three sentences came out, Tang Hao immediately became really fragrant.

The learning attitude is more serious than Tang San.

For these four people, Xia Ling has different teaching goals.

For Titans and Tang Hao.

There is nothing particularly outstanding about these two guys.

Xia Ling's expectation for the two of them is that they can make a quick breakthrough in the traditional forging technique, and this is enough.

The two of them are also full of energy every day, soaking in the forging room of the logistics department of Wuhun City all day to exercise forging.

For the height of the building.

Xia Lingke has great expectations for him.

While teaching him blacksmithing, he also asked Lou Gao to go to listen to classes with the royal clan every day.

Mainly listen to this aspect of material science.

Lou Gao has a unique talent in the field of metal materials, and it is a pity not to use it.

Many of the metal formulas that this guy has experimented with in his life may be just discarded by other forces, but it is a pity to eat tasteless chicken ribs.

But for the Wuhun Palace, these are all priceless treasures, which are enough to bring the basic industry of the Wuhun Hall to a higher level.

At least for now, in the locomotive, the metal formula of the building has made a big difference.

The researchers of the institute used a special alloy formula provided by him to solve the problem of insufficient structural strength of the conduction device supporting the soul guide engine.

Moreover, Lou Gao also has a very unique insight into the creation of armor.

The Eight Treasure Ruyi Soft Armor he made could even withstand Soul Emperor-level attacks without any damage.

Xia Ling decided to hand over the ideas and concepts of the production of the bucket armor to him for research after learning to melt and forge in Lou Gao.

He had a feeling that Dou Armor was beckoning to him.

Finally, for Tang San.

Summer Spirit didn't seem to waste him on the blacksmith profession.

There are enough good blacksmiths, and there is no shortage of him.

In Tang San's previous life, as an ancient civil chemist, he still went to learn something that he should know.

So he called Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan over.

Their grandparents and grandchildren were with Tang San and listened to him lecture on chemistry and biology every day.
