God Soldier Atlas

Chapter 34: 0 Steelmaking, cutting saber

   "Old Zhou!"

   Zhou Shu was still in a daze, Sun Gongping pulled his sleeves and whispered.

Zhou Shu came back to his senses. He glanced at Zhu Chuanfeng, and then said, "Master Zhu is a master craftsman, it is normal to look down on standard weapons, but you have to say that the road to standard weapons has been exhausted. I agree."

   "As far as I know, although Daxia's standard weapons are strong, they are of a single type. Standard long swords, standard long swords, and even bows and arrows are generally the same."

   "The standard weapon is like this, although it is easier to cast, but for the army, it is a lost change."

   "In my opinion, different services should be equipped with different weapons, cavalry has cavalry weapons, infantry has infantry weapons, the Imperial Guards and the border guards are different."

  Mengbai nodded slightly, his eyes flashed with appreciation.

   Zhu Chuanfeng snorted coldly, "You are an ignorant kid, what kind of army do you know?"

   "Stop talking nonsense, have you ever forged weapons? If not, just give in."

   Zhou Shu didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that Zhu Chuanfeng was a little bit against him.

   But just think about him as a small apprentice for casting soldiers, and he has nothing to do with a master craftsman. They shouldn’t have trouble with him specifically, right?

   Without thinking, Zhou Shu raised his head and pulled out the weapon immersed in cold oil.

   As soon as the weapon appeared in front of everyone, Meng Bai and Zhu Chuanfeng stood up almost at the same time.

   Zhou Shu's hand was a seven-foot-long weapon with a blade of three feet long and a handle four feet long.

   Just one glance, you can feel the lethality of this weapon.

  In this world, including Daxia and several other countries, there are long weapons in standard weapons, but they are generally just spears and spears.

   Long-handled broadsword, there have also been attempts by the casting division, but all aspects are not satisfactory.

   Zhu Chuanfeng is a master craftsman, even if he hasn't mastered it, he can be sure that this broad knife cast by Zhou Shu is a weapon that has never appeared in the history of Daxia!

   He can even conclude that the power of this knife is not under the first sword of Bailianhuan!

   "Is he really a genius for casting soldiers?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng frowned and said.

   "Show me!"

   Mengbai said in a deep voice, as for the weapon that Xiao Zongshui and Li Hongyuan's apprentices had cast, he just glanced at it, and didn't even have the thought of trying it out.

   "Next, be careful!"

   Zhou Shu said, and threw the long-handled knife over.

"you--"

   Sun Gongping was taken aback, and his heart suddenly came to his throat.

   This old Zhou, if you hurt General Mongolia, the Army of the Great Xia will not tear you alive!

   Meng Bai laughed, stretched out his long arms, held the long handle of the big knife, and then sank his hand down to relieve the strength on it.

   Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows. From beginning to end, he did not use more power than ordinary people.

   "What a heavy knife!"

   Mengbai said, he stroked the blade with his fingers, then held the handle of the blade with both hands, and cut a few times in the air.

   "The first knife of the hundred-reinforced ring is good for the cavalry to chop and fight on the horseback. This knife can be used freely in the waterway of the horse."

   Mengbai said solemnly.

   "The general knows the goods!"

   Zhou Shu gave a thumbs up.

"But there are also disadvantages. The first sword of the Bailianhuan weighs seven or eight catties, and it is relatively easy to use, and this is more than twice as heavy as the first sword of the Bailianhuan, and it requires much higher strength and physical strength for the user. ."

   Zhou Shu added.

   "General, can you show me a look?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng said in a deep voice.

   Mengbai handed the long knife to Zhu Chuanfeng casually, and said with a smile, "Master Zhu tasted and appraised, Mengmou thinks that this knife is indeed a new standard weapon."

   Zhu Chuanfeng had a serious expression. He stroked his hands on the long knife, and a faint white light was emitted from his palm.

"The biggest problem with ordinary iron casting such a long handle is that the weapon is easy to break, and such long soldiers have extremely high requirements for casting skills, and ordinary casting apprentices cannot be cast at all. Is this Zhou Shu's casting skills already Is it close to the ordinary casting division?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng said to himself in his heart.

   He raised his head and looked at Zhou Shu, "This knife is not purely made of ordinary iron. What material did you use?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng's tone was full of doubts.

   If you use precious materials to cast standard weapons, it will indeed increase the power of standard weapons, but it also loses its original intent.

  Isn't it more powerful to use precious materials for casting weapons?

   standard weapons, what you want is a good quality and low price, cost-effective!

   If Zhou Shu uses other materials, no matter how good this knife is, he will lose in this competition.

"Great!"

   Zhou Shu gave a heartfelt thumbs up. Although he doesn't like Zhu Chuanfeng, he has to say that he is indeed capable.

   Just touching it with his hand, he can see the secret of this knife, and the master really deserves his reputation.

   "Did you really add other materials?"

   Mengbai said in a deep voice, his eyes slightly disappointed.

  If other materials are added, then this knife is cast in batches, but there is a problem.

   If the cost is too high, it is not a standard weapon. If the cost of a standard weapon is too high, why not equip soldiers with imported weapons?

   "It's understandable that you are young and vigorous and don't want to lose, but cheating—"

   Zhu Chuanfeng snorted coldly.

   "Master Zhu, I don't remember this pot."

   Zhou Shu shook his head, "I really didn't cast this knife with ordinary iron, but you say I cheated, I don't admit it."

   "Here, even if I want to cheat, I have to have conditions, no, will you give me the opportunity to search for other materials?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng looked at the two boys who left him with the supervisor, and the two boys shook their heads.

   They have been monitoring this place for the past ten days, and have not seen where Zhou Shu had obtained other materials for casting soldiers.

   "Master Zhou, what is going on?"

   Mengbai said in a deep voice.

"it's actually really easy."

   Zhou Shu smiled slightly and said, "Master Zhu sees that this long knife is not made of ordinary iron. That's because I used a new casting material."

   "This material is called Hundred Steelmaking."

   "Hundreds of steel making?"

   Meng Bai's heart moved, and he said, "It is related to the first sword of Bai Lianhuan?"

"You can say that."

   Zhou Shu nodded and explained, "The so-called Bailian is actually a casting method. I had a preliminary idea when casting the first knife of the Bailian ring, but it was not perfect at the time."

   "In the past ten days, I have been thinking hard day and night, and finally I have further improved the method of one hundred refining, so there is this hundred steel making."

   Sun Gongping can hear his lips straight, do you think hard day and night?

   You obviously sleep well day and night.

   But he is also quite curious. It seems that Lao Zhou is going to win.

   What kind of steelmaking, it sounds like very powerful, is it possible that Lao Zhou is really a genius like me?

   Am I thinking about waiting for him to become a caster before letting him help me cast the weapon?

  Sun Gongping rubbed his chin, his eyes rolled steadily.

   "Your so-called hundred-smelting steel, is it possible to achieve that it is the iron material processed by the method of hundred-smelting?"

   Zhu Chuanfeng is professional after all. He probably understood what was going on when he heard Zhou Shu's words.

   Zhu Chuanfeng's eyes flickered, as if he was deducing the effect of this method.

  The rest of the people didn't understand Zhou Shu's meaning at all. What kind of method of refining and steelmaking were all too professional for them.

   are those apprentices who know how to make soldiers.

"Yes, the method of refining is to reduce the impurities in the iron material through repeated heating and forging, with certain techniques, and to reduce the carbon content in the iron material through special methods. Repeatedly, what you get is 100 steelmaking..."

   Zhou Shu used his own understanding to make a comment.

   As for whether Zhu Chuanfeng can understand it, I'm sorry, anyway, he won't explain the specific joints to Zhu Chuanfeng.

   This is an unspoken secret!

  Hundreds of steelmaking involves more than simply repeated forging, it also involves the ratio of iron, carbon, tin and other substances.

   I don’t understand this, it’s not that easy to make a hundred steel.

   Zhou Shu believes that he is a master craftsman, and he may not be able to find the perfect formula without thousands of attempts.

  Will the master waste so much time on this?

   Obviously not.

   This world is different from Zhou Shu’s previous life. All kinds of mysterious materials for casting soldiers are much stronger than hundred steel, but those materials are expensive, and only powerful warriors can afford them.

   "Mr. Zhou, do you mean that you can make a hundred steel with ordinary iron materials?"

   Mengbai asked in a deep voice.

   "Almost." Zhou Shu said, "General, do you want to ask the cost of this knife?"

   Mengbai nodded, and heard Zhou Shu say, "One hundred steel-making is mainly expensive in labor costs. After calculating, the cost of this knife should be twenty to thirty taels of silver."

"so cheap?"

   Blindfolded eyes lit up ~www.novelmt.com~ said.

   Is this cheaper?

   Zhou Shu felt that he might be asking for a low price. He originally thought that a Tiger's card was only sold for five taels of silver. The cost of this knife was at most twice as expensive as the Tiger's knife.

   You can make a profit by selling twelve taels of silver, let alone twenty thirty taels.

   After all, the labor cost of Casting Division is almost negligible...

   "It's okay," Zhou Shu said in deep thought, "We try to reduce the cost as much as possible. It should be possible to supply this knife at this price."

   "The Lord Zhou is indeed the pillar of the country!"

   Mengbai looked overjoyed and said loudly.

   "Master Zhu, do you think, who loses and who wins in this competition?"

   Mengbai looked at Zhu Chuanfeng and said with a smile.

"The so-called Hundred Steelmaking is nothing but his own words. The specifics are only known after he has tried it." Zhu Chuanfeng said coldly, "In this world, looks like goods are everywhere. Who knows, this knife? Isn't it a fancy thing?"

   "Does Master Zhu mean that the general is blind, or are you blind?"

   Mengbai gave a cold snort, and a majestic trend emerged spontaneously. He said coldly, "You and I, don't you see the quality of a standard weapon?"

   "Seeing is imaginary." Zhu Chuanfeng's scalp was numb, and his heart bounced, and said, "It's me, I can't guarantee whether this knife looks good or not, I have to try it!"

   "Huh, since Master Zhu has this kind of elegance, then Ben will accompany him to the end." Meng Bai said coldly, "I will test the knife personally today!"

   "Master Zhou, does this knife have a name?"

   He looked at Zhou Shu and asked.

"Have!"

   Zhou Shu sternly said, "This sword is famous for cutting horses!"

   "AKA, Mo Dao!"
