Chapter 13, The First Attempt

Meng Jingye was also stunned, she didn't seem to say what she wanted to buy, and said, "You don't know what I'm going to buy, how can you say that there are good things to sell to me?"

Mu Bai rolled his eyes, looked at Meng Jingye with a stupid expression, and said, "I sell ores, iron ingots and coal here, all of them are good, you are not here to buy and sell ores and iron ingots, what are you doing here?" Meng Jingye said: "Of course I am here to buy and sell ores and iron ingots, buy them all." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Mu Bai said: "That's not the end." Let's go, let's ........," and then pulled Meng Jingye to continue walking.

When he got to the middle of the field, he pointed to the four piles of ore that had a slight metallic sheen and said, "These are iron ore, and there is coal over there," and he pointed to a few piles of black things.

Meng Jingye didn't understand this very well, so he said, "If I want to make iron, what kind of ore and coal do I use?"

"Huh?" Mu Bai was taken aback, looked Meng Jingye up and down with a surprised gaze, and said, "Master, you are actually a layman?" Meng Jingye frowned, and said, "Why? Can't you understand?" Mu Bai put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky at forty-five degrees, and said in a sighing tone: "Master, it seems that you are still not good! How can people like us who want to become martial arts masters in the future not understand this?" Meng Jingye didn't understand, what is the connection between understanding these and becoming a master. Silently did not speak.

Mu Bai sighed again and said, "There are very few people like me who are so omnipotent!" Pointing to the pile of ore in front of him, he said, "This is hematite, and it is generally used for iron smelting." In general, hematite is often plate-like, and the aggregates are usually flaky, scaly, kidney-like, ovoc-like, lumpy or earth-like. It is reddish-brown, steel-gray to iron-black, and the streaks are cherry red. Metallic to semi-metallic luster, iron-black, metallic luster, flake-like hematite is also called mirror iron ore by the people of our Wu Dynasty; steel-gray, metallic luster, scale-like is called mica hematite, ancient called "Yunzi iron"; reddish-brown earth-like and dull luster is called ochre, ancient called "ochre", and "ochre" refers to hematite. He turned to Meng Jingye and said, "Although you don't understand, I still decided to send such a large pile of hematite ........." "Give it to me?" Meng Jingye said in surprise, he didn't expect this person to be so generous! Mu Bai waved his hand and said with a mysterious face: "It's for you to see! How can I give it to you? It's strange if my second uncle doesn't kill me! But I can still give you a good thing!" Mu Bai squatted down, picked up a stone, stuffed it into Meng Jingye's hand, and said, "This is my Mu family 500 years ago." ........... Hey, don't lose it!" Meng Jingye didn't bother to listen to what he said, threw the stone behind his back, and rolled on the ground a few times before he knew where it went. interrupted Mu Bai's words and said, "Okay, get me some hematite and coal to burn hematite." Meng Jingye gave Mu Bai all the silver left in his pocket.

Mu Bai shook the silver and said, "Okay." "I was going to load ore for Meng Jingye, but after walking two handfuls, I turned around and came back, Meng Jingye didn't know what he wanted to do, only to see Mu Bai mysteriously approaching Meng Jingye and saying, "Do you think I was humorous just now?" "Well, it's very humorous!" Meng Jingye was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so he casually sent him away. Mu Bai listened to it with a satisfied face and left.

Meng Jingye walked on the road, followed by a helper from Mu Bai's family, pulling a board cart, on which was a bag of hematite and several bags of lignite used to burn iron ore that Meng Jingye bought with his last silver. When he got home, Meng Jingye asked the helper to take his things into the house and sent him away.

Meng Jingye returned to the inner courtyard and took off his clothes in the bedroom, wearing only a pair of pants, because he was such a set of clothes. I don't have the money to buy it, I'm afraid it will break. After putting away his clothes, he went outside to make a fire and burn coal, ready to make iron.

As soon as the coal was burning, a prompt was heard.

【Ironmaking in progress.........】

[Hematite 200 kg refining medium ...........]

【Medium ........... of lignite continuous consumption】

Everything seemed to be so natural, as if an invisible force was pulling Meng Jingye's body to make the most correct movements.

The progress bar in the field of vision gradually grew, and finally walked from the left to the right, and Meng Jingye's body also stopped. "Ding, the ironmaking is complete!"

[Get 114 catties of ordinary pig iron] (the ratio is hematite 175:100 pig iron, the information comes from Baidu, the author has checked)

[Obtained a little information about steelmaking]

Meng Jingye began to forge iron again. I heard another prompt.

【Wrought iron in progress..........】

【Ordinary pig iron forging medium ..........】

【Medium ........... of lignite continuous consumption】

Meng Jingye's body also moved with the rhythm of the prompt sound. After a while, the forging was complete.

[Get 75 catties of 100 pieces of pig iron]

After doing it for a long time, Meng Jingye was also tired, so he went into the house and used a wooden barrel to draw a bucket of cold water in the well, and drank two sips with a gurgling mouthful. I wiped my mouth and rested against the well.

After resting, Meng Jingye stood up and exhaled a sigh of "huh~". Walked into the room and continued his unfinished business.

Meng Jingye picked up a piece of discus with a tong, and he was about to forge a sword!

【Weapon forging in progress........】

【Longsword forging in progress........】

【100 Broken Pig Iron Continues to Consume ........】

【Medium ......... of continuous consumption of lignite】

I saw Meng Jingye constantly hammering, dividing, and hammering, and an iron bar appeared. Then there was another thrashing....... A long sword gradually took shape in Meng Jingye's hand!"Huh~~~・" With the last extraction sound of the long sword in the water, a long sword was finally made! Heating the iron is indeed to reduce the hardness and facilitate forging, and putting the red-hot iron into the water to cool is to improve the hardness.

"Naming it or not?"

Meng Jingye cherished what he had forged for the first time, and waved it a few times in the air. He said silently in his heart: "Yes, named: Dragon Slaying Sword!"

Meng Jingye put it away, went into the house and put it next to the futon, went to the kitchen to cook some rice, cut a little bacon, and dealt with it. I took the bucket to the well and fetched a few buckets of water, rinsed my body, went back to the bedroom, sat cross-legged on the futon, and began a long self-study.
