Chapter 35 Cold Forging Beyond the Times
As time goes by, and every day goes by, the smelting of Hyderabad ore will progress.
Wang Chong didn't understand smelting, but Wang Chong believed in the craftsmen Wei Hao found for him. With their ability, it is absolutely no problem to fulfill their own requirements.
After five days.
"Okay! The iron ingots are about to be made!"
Inside the cave, the air was scorching hot, and the sweaty head of the craftsman suddenly shouted. One sentence caught the attention of everyone in the cave.
"Buzz!"
The blast furnace rushed, and the four strong craftsmen stretched out their pliers almost at the same time, probed into the blast furnace, and took out four pieces of smelted Hyderabad ore, or Uzi steel, and placed them on the iron platform.
"It's incredible!"
"It's so heavy! A piece of raw ore can actually make such a large iron ingot. The iron content of this ore is incredible!"
"Looking at this flame, there is actually a blue light. I have been refining ore for decades, and I have dealt with so many iron ore. This is the first time I have seen this kind of ore!"
"Look, this is still a rough embryo, and it actually has the luster of steel, which is similar to that of Hundred Steelmaking. It's a miracle!"
...
A group of people surrounded the four Uzi steel ingots on the iron platform, their eyes widened, and their mouths were amazed. When Wang Chong took out the four pieces of black iron ore, he didn't tell them in detail.
But the blacksmiths smelted so many ores, no matter how slow the reaction was, they would react. The ore that Wang Chong asked them to smelt was definitely not from Middle Earth.
There will never be such iron ore in the Middle Earth that will spray blue fire from the inside, and it will not have the characteristics of some steel just after it is embryonic.
They had never seen anything like this in their decades of life.
"No wonder he asked me to lower the temperature below 1500 degrees!"
The middle-aged craftsman leader in his forties also reacted at this time.
"That's great! It really is Wuzigang!"
Wang Chong was also extremely excited.
In the last life, although he had seen Uzi steel weapons, he had never seen the rough embryos in the smelting process of Uzi steel weapons. This exotic Uzi steel showed its face for the first time in Middle-earth.
This is a huge improvement.
"Next, it's time for the forging process!"
Wang Chong clenched his fists and his eyes were bright. The first step of smelting is completed, and the next step is to create finished weapons from rough embryos. This step is more important than smelting, and needs to be more careful and cautious, and no mistakes can be made.
"Remove the fire! Use pine branches to burn the fire, and blow air from the exhaust box, and the temperature should not exceed 300 degrees!"
Wang Chong ordered.
One sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the twelve master craftsmen looked at them with strange eyes. Wang Chong's request was completely unbelievable to everyone.
"Master Chong! Isn't this temperature too low?"
"Yeah! In the entire Tang Dynasty, no one has forged at such a low temperature. The forging effect will be very poor. I am afraid that seven days and seven nights may not be able to forge weapons."
Several craftsmen said boldly. The previous ground fire magma of more than 2,000 degrees dropped to 1500 degrees, even if it was 1500 degrees, it was still high temperature.
But Wang Chong actually required a forging temperature of three hundred degrees. Such a low temperature was unheard of.
It's like a request from a layman who doesn't know anything about it.
Even if Wang Chong's status was higher than them, everyone couldn't help but have some opinions. Forging is not like that.
"This is called cold forging, just do as I say!"
Wang Chong said lightly, his eyes facing the twelve master craftsmen, without flinching. Cold forging is a special method of weapon forging, which can greatly strengthen the metal and increase the hardness of the weapon.
However, in this time and space, the method of cold forging is far from appearing, and most weapons are still carried out at high temperature. Because the high temperature softens the metal, it is easy to shape, and it can also greatly shorten the time for weapon forging.
But many people don't know that cold forging takes a long time, but the strengthening effect on weapons is unmatched by high-temperature forging.
If Wang Chong wanted to build a top-grade Uzi steel weapon, he had to be cold forged.
Of course, cold forging does not mean that it is carried out under the conditions of icy temperature, but it is relative to the high temperature of mainstream forging. The best temperature for cold forging of Uzi steel is about 300 degrees.
If you don't understand this, the effect of forging the same Uzi steel weapon is absolutely different. Although the big food is close to the water tower, it will take at least five or six years to refine a Uzi steel weapon of the same quality as Wang Chong!
"Cold off..."
A bunch of craftsmen were inexplicable and didn't understand what Wang Chong was talking about.
"Enough! Why think so much? Just do it!"
Wei Hao was not so patient, and pointed at his nose and cursed one by one. There's nothing left, just forge a weapon and do it as it is, it's not you forging weapons, there's so much nonsense there?
Wang Chong smiled secretly, knowing that Wei Hao didn't necessarily have any dissatisfaction, it was just his personality. However, being scolded by Wei Hao, these craftsmen are honest and ready to start work one by one.
"Every team of three! Start work at the same time. If seven days are not enough to complete the work, we will use ten days! This is the blueprint of the first weapon, let's start!"
Wang Chong spread out a blueprint and said loudly in front of everyone.
Wang Chong can't forge weapons, but these are the best craftsmen. Wei Hao has chosen from thousands of choices, how can he be weak. Moreover, these people have a lot of problems when smelting and forging.
The more skilled craftsmen, the more proud they are, and the less willing they are to create ordinary products by themselves. These craftsmen like to pick and stab, which itself shows their strength.
Jingle Jingle!
In the next time, the cave was busy again. Except for Wang Chong, no one knew that cold forging, a brand-new forging method, had appeared in this world for the first time.
"Little girl! When the cold forging of the first batch of weapons is completed, please do me a favor."
Wang Chong suddenly turned around and said.
"what?"
The little sister of the Wang family yawned with a look of boredom. She heard about "body poison" and "Hyderabad", and she thought it was fun, but after a long time, it was actually "smithing", so boring!
"Help me forge this batch of weapons again! Three thousand times for each weapon!"
Wang Chong said.
Swish! Wei Hao gave a thumbs up, with a look of admiration. Wang Chong, you are too good! He actually thought of using Xiaoyao, an unparalleled master, to strike iron.
With her strength and her involvement, the poor quality of this batch of weapons has risen one level less.
However, both are too wishful thinking.
"don't want!"
The little sister of the Wang family rolled her eyes and refused without thinking. He actually wanted to treat her as a free labor. I really thought she was a three-year-old child, which was too wishful thinking.
"One hundred taels of gold! Not for nothing!"
Wang Chong raised a finger without hesitation.
"what!"
The little sister of the Wang family's eyes lit up, her eyes widened suddenly, as if she was completely moved by the conditions offered by her little brother. One hundred taels... gold! Although she is young, she can still distinguish between gold and silver.
Her monthly pockets were only 10 taels of silver, and Wang Chong actually said that she would give her 100 taels of gold! If there are so many, isn't she developed!
Really excited to think about it!
"Don't do it!"
The little sister of the Wang family pouted, suddenly turned her head aside, and refused without hesitation. Wang Chong and Wei Hao were shocked and thought they had miscalculated. When the younger sister of the Wang family was unwilling to do it, they suddenly heard another translation in their ears:
"Two hundred taels! Not even one tael!—Otherwise, I'll tell my mother! Let my mother teach you a lesson."
"..."
Just now, Wang Chong and Wei Hao were surprised when they heard the last sentence, and their expressions were all weird. Wei Hao, in particular, couldn't help but burst into laughter, almost dying of laughter in his eyes.
"Hahaha..., ah, I'm dying of laughter! Wang Chong, you have today too! Haha, Xiaoyao doesn't have to be polite to him, your brother is a rich man now. If you don't let him bleed, let your mother teach him a lesson! "
Wei Hao looked at the serious-looking little sister of the Wang family, and his stomach was about to fall to the ground with a smile.
Wang Chong also shook his head, feeling embarrassed beyond words. This time, Wei Hao, an outsider, saw a joke. This little girl is indeed still a small money fan as always!
"make a deal!"
He has a lot of money on him now. In Wei Hao's words, he is a ditch now, and two hundred taels of gold really doesn't matter.
"yeah!"
The little sister of the Wang family clenched her fists, her face flushed with excitement. She just tried it out, but she didn't expect it to be successful. However, soon, the little sister of the Wang family seemed to think of something, and immediately calmed down, looking at Wang Chong suspiciously:
"Two hundred taels of gold? It's gold, not silver. Third brother, you can't lie to me!"
Wang Chong laughed, this little girl asked for 200 taels of gold from herself, but now she doesn't believe it anymore, and starts to be suspicious. Wealth comes so easily!
"Of course! When did the little brother lie to you? Here is two hundred taels of silver. If you don't believe it, I can give it to you first."
Wang Chong took out the gold from his arms and handed it over.
Although 200 taels of gold was a lot, Wang Chong was still very satisfied that he was able to invite Xiaomei, a "Hercules" of the ninth level of vitality.
In the last life, the reason why Uzi steel weapons could be sold at high prices of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands was not just because Uzi steel was extremely rare, but also because of the highest skills represented by this weapon.
Every Uzi steel weapon has spent a lot of effort and achieved the ultimate. So although body poison is the origin of Hyderabad ore, but Dashi and Damascus are the center of Uzi steel.
Now that Hyderabad ore was born, everything had just begun, and Wang Chong had no competitors. What Wang Chong wants to do is not to "sell Hyderabad ore", but to start his own brand!
Those who spend tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of gold to buy Uzi steel weapons are not fools. If the Uzi steel weapons are not of a very high level and skill far beyond the same weapons, no one would spend so much money to buy them.
Cold forging is a forging step in the process of weapon forging. It requires the forger to exert the greatest strength. The bigger the better, the better.
In this regard, if there is a little girl who is a natural power, comparable to a master of the ninth rank of vitality, Wang Chong can almost be sure that the Wuzi steel weapon he forged is definitely of extremely high craftsmanship and quality!
"Deal! Don't regret it!"
Seeing the two hundred taels of gold, the little sister of the Wang family straightened her eyes and took it from Wang Chong's hand with a nervous look on her face, for fear that Wang Chong would regret it.
"However, little brother, where did you get so much money?"
The little sister of the Wang family finally discovered something was wrong. Wei Xiaonian's fat man only said that the younger brother made a lot of money, but he didn't say where his money came from.
"Twelve more, don't tell mom!"
Wang Chong shoved an ingot of gold directly.
"make a deal!"
The little sister of the Wang family got the gold, and she immediately smiled happily, no matter where Wang Chong got so much money.
"Khan, what a little money fan!"
Wei Hao was on the side, looking at him with a cold sweat.
With the help of the "master" Xiaomei, the construction progress of Wuzigang weapons has been accelerated a lot. Wang Chong was not in a hurry. He practiced every day, supervising and supervising the progress of the craftsmen's cold forging, and then quietly waited for the completion of the cold forging of Wuzigang.
