11. Blacksmith

Zhang Qi squatted on the ground, writing and drawing on the cloth with a sharpened charcoal pen.

Although most of his attention was on the cloth map, his ears were always listening to the movements of the lord's army.

Footsteps, horses' hooves, the sounds told him whether the lord had stopped or walked.

The last stroke fell on the cloth, the village [Wathea], specialty, [iron ore], the direction, due north of Nuotai.

Getting up, folding the cloth and putting it in his arms, Zhang Qi happened to see that there were a few more recruits in the lord's troops.

"Envy, if you want to recruit, you can recruit, you can't compare."

sighed.

Compared to the difficulty of recruiting at the level of Zhang Qi's overlord, these NPC lords have no obstacle to recruiting in the village, and those recruitment slots in the village are completely open to them, and how much they want to recruit depends entirely on the impact of their dull heads on the battle situation in their own country.

Recruit less if there is no war, and recruit more if there is a war.

"Let's go, the recruits follow."

Seeing that the lord's troops began to set off, Zhang Qi also turned on his horse and shouted at the stunned [Imperial Recruits] on the side.

The purchased ore was put in a cloth pocket and hung on the left side of the horse's back, Zhang Qi grabbed the reins and kicked the horse's belly lightly, and the traveling horse began to run forward obediently.

Carrying a pitchfork on his back, the [Imperial Recruits] did not have the slightest expression on his face, running mechanically, and there was no trace of fatigue in sight.

Following the lord's troops east and west, Zhang Qi's judgment on the direction in his mind was completely lost, but it didn't matter, as long as he reached a town, the sense of direction in Zhang Qi's mind would be immediately restored and repositioned.

Thousands of hours of game time are no joke, Zhang Qi remembers the distribution of forces in the riding and slashing world clearly.

The sun had begun to set in the west, but the lord's army was still moving from village to village.

Thanks to this lord, Zhang Qi's cloth map has more and more villages.

He recorded what was produced in each village.

Regardless of it, Zhang Qi remembered the distribution of forces in the riding and slashing world clearly, but he didn't have much impression of the village.

Except for a few villages that produced war horses, he had a good impression, the others had long been filtered out of his brain.

[Wasea iron ore. 】

[Gersegus Silver Ore. 】

[Malatea iron ore. 】

【.........】

【.........】

As time passed, a clear property grid map emerged in Zhang Qi's mind.

The timber can already be prostituted for nothing, and it is not so important whether Xiao Nong goes or not.

As 'Epiclothea' appeared in Zhang Qi's sight, he immediately broke away from the lord's army and entered the city.

Epicrotea is a town located at the junction of the Northern Empire, Batania, and Stegia.

It is surrounded by water on both sides and mountains on the other, and there are two villages that Zhang Qi urgently needs and specializes in iron ore.

So the moment he walked into this town, Zhang Qi decided to use this as an important base for himself.

Riding a traveling horse with the Imperial recruits to the blacksmith shop, the reins of the traveling horse are tied to the pillar at the door of the blacksmith shop.

Although the traveling horse can't run around, Zhang Qi still has to get used to it, because he has two worlds!

"Keep up."

Tethered to the traveling horse, Zhang Qi softly shouted to the stunned imperial recruit beside him.

The two walked briskly to the tavern.

Walking into the tavern, Zhang Qi's eyes were instantly attracted by a man leaning against the corner of the wall drinking.

His face showed ecstasy, and Zhang Qi understood that he had met the 'wanderer' in the game!

"This is my blessed land!"

Zhang Qi was so ecstatic that he even forgot about striking iron, and walked a few quick steps to reach the wanderer's side.

Wanderers are also recruitable in this game, but unlike NPC soldiers, wanderers can be trained by the player in a specific direction.

For example, warriors.

For example, doctors.

For example, businessmen.

For example..... This blacksmith in front of you!

You must know that Zhang Qi's attribute skill bar has been switched, and he can't make it easier to strike iron by clicking on skills like in the game.

Moreover, in addition to convenience, without the support of the blacksmith's skills, Zhang Qi would not be able to refine the materials above the 'iron', 'steel', 'high-quality steel' and finally 'refined steel' through the blacksmith's panel!

Without the support of these materials, Zhang Qi would not be able to create and sell even if he unlocked a more advanced blueprint.

The profits of those advanced blueprint weapons far exceed those of the most common crafted two-handed swords.

An ordinary two-handed sword costs only more than six hundred dinars, and a high-level blueprint weapon, although Zhang Qi has never built it before, but through the almighty group of friends Amway, he still knows that the price of a high-level blueprint weapon is often in the thousands or even ten thousand!

Dinar.

This is what Zhang Qi needs most at the moment, and all his advantages are now linked to this invisible and intangible currency, only the number display.

Without the dinar, he would not have been able to buy supplies to take out of the world.

He couldn't finish without the dinar......

His ambition!

Yes.

He's ambitious too!

With a sharp blade in his hand and a murderous intention, in such a feudal society, he does not want to be a lamb to the slaughter.

Dialogue.

Communicate.

Listen to the story.

Zhang Qi listened to the story called 'Blacksmith Suojiaer' word by word.

Until the most important sentence is recited mechanically.

"On the way to wandering, the townsfolk here have taken care of me, so that I can be fed and clothed, I want to be able to give them some gifts before I follow you away, I want to advance 1,000 dinars, do you think it is acceptable?"

"No problem!"

"Recruits! It's work! ”

Zhang Qi's eyes were slightly red, which was caused by excitement.

The wanderer could leave at any time, so Zhang Qi didn't delay a little time, and began to do free relocation work for the tavern with the imperial recruits.

Tables, stools, chairs, shelves, and pieces of furniture were moved to the blacksmith shop by Zhang Qi and the imperial recruits.

Bell, bell, bell.

There was a series of sounds of striking iron in the blacksmith's shop.

Eight pieces of iron ore were refined into sixteen pieces of wrought iron.

Then these sixteen pieces of wrought iron were made into four two-handed swords by Zhang Qi.

Market.

Vend.

More than 2,400 dinars were credited, and Zhang Qitou ran to the tavern without looking back.

In the empty tavern, the figure of the blacksmith stands out.

Zhang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, it's good that he is still there.

Run forward, talk again, and pay 1000 dinars.

A piece of organ music sounded in Zhang Qi's ears.

【Blacksmith Sogar to join your team!】 】

"Reforge the glory of the blacksmith! It is incumbent upon our generation! ”

Zhang Qi grabbed Suojiaer's hands with tears in his eyes.

said with emotion.
