Chapter 46: Refining
After the two left the secret room, Su Yun asked directly: "Shopkeeper, I wonder if I can be a foundry apprentice in the store?" ”
"Oh? Do you want to be a foundry? Shen Yimin was stunned for a moment.
The bronze killer has thirty taels of silver every month for not going out of the mission, and the reward for receiving the assassination mission is naturally more, but he has to come to the store as an apprentice?
"I refine my body and have some interest in refining weapons, so I want to learn it." Su Yun said.
It's fake to be interested, in fact, it's to brush up on proficiency, and just now he simplified the 'Thousand Hammer Gong'.
[Ding, in the simplified exercise "Thousand Hammer Gong"...... Simplifying success: "Thousand Hammers" → "Swinging the Hammer"! 】
First, the proficiency of the Thousand Hammer Gong can be brushed;
The second is that it is cheaper to forge weapons by yourself than to buy them, and anyway, the proficiency level of alchemy at all levels is full.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Yimin nodded: "Okay, you can stay in the shop as an apprentice, just arrange an identity for you." ”
"Thank you, shopkeeper!" Su Yun thanked him.
"Well, come with me!"
"Yes, shopkeeper."
Su Yun followed behind Shen Yimin and went to the foundry room in the backyard of the blacksmith shop, and the sound of the foundries hitting the hammer became clearer and clearer along the way.
Walking into the foundry room, a heat wave came to my face, and the temperature instantly increased by several degrees.
Finally, Shen Yimin brought Su Yun to a bald, shirtless middle-aged man who was striking iron, and said loudly: "Master Hua, this is the newly recruited apprentice of the store, let him follow you!" ”
"Huh? What? Master Hua glanced at the two of them, and didn't seem to hear them too clearly.
"I said, this is the store's new apprentice, let him follow you!" Shen Yimin got closer, and his voice was louder than before.
This time, Hua Yuanlong listened to the general idea, nodded and said, "Okay, I know, shopkeeper." ”
"Su Yun, then you can learn from Master Hua, and ask Master Hua if you have any questions."
Shen Yimin said goodbye and left directly.
[Ding, discover the skill "Mortal Rank Alchemy", does it consume 10 points to learn? ] 】
"Yes!"
After hearing the prompt sound of the system, Su Yun decisively chose to learn, and then simplified it.
[Ding, simplified skill in "Mortal Rank Alchemy"...... Simplification and success: "Mortal Alchemy" → "Waving Hand"! 】
In an instant, there was a lot of knowledge about refining tools in my mind, and the main steps of refining tools were smelting, forging, planing, tempering, etc.
The most important step is actually forging, which was originally meant to be hit with an iron hammer, but now you can increase your proficiency with a simple wave of your hand, which is quite good.
Suddenly, Hua Yuanlong looked at Su Yun and asked loudly, "Hey, what's your name?" ”
"Master Hua, my name is Su Yun!" Su Yun said.
"Okay, you go pull the bellows!"
"Okay."
The apprentices all started from miscellaneous work, Su Yun obediently went to pull the bellows, and adjusted the frequency of pulling the bellows according to Hua Yuanlong's prompts, so as to control the size of the fire.
Fortunately, pulling the bellows can also be regarded as waving, which can increase the proficiency of "Mortal Alchemy".
After the time of the three incense sticks passed, Hua Yuanlong finally finished casting the long sword, looked at his work with satisfaction, looked at Su Yun and asked, "What do you think of this long sword?" ”
"The blade of the sword is sharp, the hair is blown, and the hair is broken, it is really a good sword, it should be of medium grade!" Su Yun praised seriously.
"Well, you're pretty eye-catching."
Hearing this, the corners of Hua Yuanlong's mouth couldn't help but rise a little, and he continued to ask, "Have you cast a weapon before?" Can you recognize this as a medium grade? ”
"Apprenticed to a blacksmith shop in town for a while!" Su Yun said with a smile.
Relying on the system, he mastered the basic knowledge of casting.
"That's good, you can try forging some farm tools in a few days."
"Thank you Master Hua, you may need Master Hua's guidance then!"
If an apprentice wants to cast weapons and farm tools, he has to nod his master, although Su Yun can slowly learn to refine weapons on his own, but he doesn't want to attract too much attention.
Evening.
The foundry closed the door, Su Yun found a tooth man after the introduction of the shopkeeper Shen, rented a small courtyard near the blacksmith shop, and went to the medicinal herb shop to buy some medicinal materials by the way, and he could make money by alchemy at night.
Two days later, under Su Yun's skillful sycophancy, Hua Yuanlong finally tried to let Su Yun cast a farm tool hoe.
The mold for the hoe had been prepared a long time ago, and after smelting, just a glance at the drawings, Su Yun stood in front of the blazing furnace, wielding a five-pound hammer and began to forge.
"Bell, bell!"
Each hammer is evenly hit on the reddish steel sheets. With a hammer, it will also pop out of the spark, and the continuous beating will make Su Yun sweat profusely.
Fortunately, Su Yun is at the peak of the Meat Refining Realm, his physical strength is not weak, and he can persevere, and Hua Yuanlong is beside him and constantly reminds Su Yun.
"Good! Enough time, the forging of farm tools cannot be too fine and sharp, and it can be quenched! Hua Yuanlong said.
"Good!"
After the words fell, Su Yun put the red hoe into the configured quenching liquid, and instantly "sizzled" a burst of white smoke, and the red hoe also turned black and brown.
The materials used in the farming tools are not pure, and the crafting is not too fine, so it naturally does not look like a weapon.
After a stick of incense, Su Yun finished forging and put the hoe in front of Hua Yuanlong: "Master Hua, please take a look!" ”
"Yes, you can successfully forge a hoe for the first time, your talent is still good, plus your physical strength is better than that of ordinary people, have you practiced martial arts?" Hua Yuanlong bowed slightly.
"I've been practicing for a while!"
"Yes, every other day in the future, you can forge some farm tools by yourself and hone your casting skills, and I will also report this to the shopkeeper."
"Thank you, Master Hua!"
"No thanks, when you learn to cast weapons, I can be a lot easier."
"Huh!"
……
That night, Su Yun received the first assassination mission after coming to Yongze County, and the target was Wan Siyuan, a well-known good man in the city, Wan Siyuan, the master of Wanfu.
Every morning when he went to the blacksmith shop, Su Yun would pass by Wanfu, and every once in a while, he would see Wanfu giving porridge to beggars and poor people in the city.
As for who is going to kill him? Why kill him? Su Yun didn't think much about it, just complete the assassination mission.
However, since this task is given to him, it means that the other party is likely to be guarded by a second-rate martial artist, so he still has to be careful.
For this reason, Su Yun first went to the Fang Market in Yongze County at night.
The Fang Market in Yongze County is larger than the Fang Market in Nanchang City, and it sells more things. After shopping for a long time, Su Yun found a stall selling pills, stepped forward and asked, "Can you accept pills?" ”
"Collect! What pills do you sell, and how many? ”
The bearded stall owner's eyes lit up.
"Thirty top-grade chalcedony pills, how many do you produce?"
"How about four hundred taels of gold?"
"It's too low, four hundred and forty taels!"
"Four hundred and twenty taels?"
After some tugging, thirty high-grade chalcedony pills were sold for four hundred and thirty taels of gold.
The pills in Yongze County are cheaper than those in Nanchang City, and there are more people in big cities who can refine pills, and there are more medicinal materials, so the price of pills will be relatively cheap.
Su Yun accepted the silver ticket and asked in a low voice, "Do you have a good poison here?" ”
