"Yes, my son obeys your orders!" Guo Qiang changed his self-identification, but his tone was still that of a subordinate to Shang Feng.

General Guo picked up the long arrow next to him and threw it at him: "Get out of here quickly."

Guo Qiang quickly dragged Qin Sanlang away.

Not long after leaving the camp, I met Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong held a red envelope in his hand, handed it to Qin Sanlang, and said with a smile: "Sir, this is a gift from that boy Zhong Yu."

After the special training in the mountains, Zhong Yu was grateful to Qin Sanlang. Knowing that he was going home to hold an engagement ceremony, he felt that such a major life event must be a gift.

But he couldn't lose face, so he could only send the red seal to Zhang Zhong and ask Zhang Zhong to pass it to Qin Sanlang.

Qin Sanlang was not polite and accepted it. When he opened it, he saw a thousand-tael silver note inside: "Well, it's really rich."

Xiaoyu will probably like this gift very much. Xiaoyu once said that it is better to receive money than to receive gifts. If you hold the money in your hands, you can buy whatever you want.

Guo Qiang also nodded and said: "It is indeed very generous. It is a thousand taels of silver notes. I have to save at least ten years of monthly money to save this amount."

Qin Sanlang smiled and taught him: "You don't need to save monthly money, you can make money by yourself. Men must learn to make money, otherwise how will they support their wives in the future? Do you still need to use monthly money to buy something for your wife?"

After hearing this, Guo Qiang felt that it made sense: "Yes, you should make money. I can't let my future wife suffer from poverty."

Guo Qiang admired Qin Sanlang. Because Qin Sanlang was thinking about marrying his wife all day long, Guo Qiang also thought about his wife at a young age.

Moreover, he also imitated Qin Sanlang, saying that if he did not take concubines, he would live with a daughter-in-law.

Zhang Zhong looked at Guo Qiang and was a little speechless... Little general, you are the biological son of General Guo. Can you imitate Qin Baihu in everything else? Can't you imitate your own father? If you weren't only seven years younger than Qin Baihu, we would have thought you were Qin Baihu's son.

"Let's go pick up the matchmaker and start home." Qin Sanlang told Guo Qiang to ask Zhang Zhong to gather the soldiers from Tianfu County's military post and take them to pick up the matchmaker.

Gu Jinli is still staying in the blacksmithing yard of Songzi Village. She has been coming to Songzi Village every day to make knives in the past few days. She goes back at early afternoon and returns home before dark.

With a sizzling sound, the red-hot long knife-shaped fine iron was put into the cold water, and was quickly taken out and beaten with a clanking sound.

There are three blacksmiths, Xiaoji's brother Xiangzi, Lu'an and Wuping.

The two of them are relatively young, both thirteen years old. They were sent by Qin Sanlang to help Mr. Qin forge iron.

Xiangzi has been taking care of things in Songzi Village, watching the iron being made, and not letting people in the village enter the ironmaking yard.

Mr. Qin stood aside and said: "Remember the feel, calculate the time, and don't break it again. We have been doing it for two years."

Xiaoyu Yatou gave him the drawings and production steps of the Tang Dao two years ago, but this kind of knife was too difficult to make. He took Xiangzi, Lu'an, and Wuping to work on it for almost two years, but he still couldn't make a real Tang Dao. knife.

However, those defective products were enough to surprise Mr. Qin.

He has never seen a knife with such a cutting power. After forging, the material of the knife is different from today's knives. It is tougher. Even a thin-edged knife with a width of two fingers can cut bones. Break.

If it were a qualified Tang Dao, Mr. Qin couldn't imagine how sharp it was.

And if such knives were distributed to the entire Da Chu army, would the Da Rong people still dare to invade?

But Xiaoyu Yatou said that this was impossible. The craftsmanship of making Tang knives was too difficult. It would take years just to train a master to forge Tang knives.

It took Xiangzi and the others almost two years of study before they could make a defective Tang Dao.

After the Tang Dao is made, if you want to make Tang Dao on a large scale, you have to train masters. Only when these masters reach a certain number can you make Tang Dao on a large scale.

Even so, it is not easy to make a qualified Tang knife, because it is impossible to hit the beating time of each knife and the heat of the water in the furnace when forging the knife.

Due to various reasons, Xiaoyu Yatou said that at most dozens of Tang knives can be made in a year. The army of Dachu is in the millions, and it is impossible for all the soldiers to be equipped with Tang knives.

Gu Jinli could only hold on to her little brother Qin first.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

In the blacksmithing yard, the sound of clanging bells is endless, and from time to time there is the sizzling sound of water entering the hot iron, the whirring of the bellows, and the sound of sharpening.

Gu Jinli didn't need to forge, he just watched Lu'an and the others forge, fearing that if one of them made a mistake, they would fail again.

When it was approaching the Youshi hour, Mr. Qin took out the newly made knife and handed it to her: "Xiaoyu girl, come and see, what do you think of this knife? Is it a real Tang knife?"

Gu Jinli took it and took a look, knocked on the blade, and heard a buzzing sound. He was delighted and said, "It looks very similar. Let's go to the next door room to chop the armor."

A real Tang Dao can cut through armor and human bones in one fell swoop, without any cracks or curls on the blade, or bends in the blade.

After hearing this, Mr. Qin was extremely happy: "It looks like it's going to be done. Hurry up and chop it."

He was even more anxious than Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli smiled and took Mr. Qin and Er Qing to the room next door.

A human-shaped iron armor is tied to a pillar in the house. This armor is made of the hardest iron sheets in Dachu. It is filled with cooked noodles that are about the same thickness as skin and flesh. There are also hard pieces in the noodles. Lamb bones are made to maximize the thickness like a real person.

Gu Jinli raised his long knife, swung it, and slashed at the iron armor. With a click, the armor's shoulder was cut off diagonally, and the flour and sheep bones inside were also cut off, and the cuts were very neat.

Mr. Qin's eyes lit up when he saw it. It was almost done. It was indeed almost done.

After Gu Jinli took a look at the incision, he immediately looked at the long knife and found that although the edge of the knife was not broken, the edge was slightly curled: "No, the front edge is not done well. It is curled. The number of blows on the front edge needs to be increased." , the time when it comes out of the oven and when it is followed by water should be carefully determined.”

If you want to make a Tang Dao, you must grasp these details, otherwise you will never make it.

After hearing this, Mr. Qin sighed: "It won't work again."

However, he is a very perseverant person, and this knife is already better than the previous one. The blade is no longer bent, but the edge is curled.

"It's the No. 210 knife, made by Xiangzi. I will ask him and change it after I ask him clearly." Mr. Qin took the long knife, looked at the sky, and said to Gu Jinli: "It's getting late. Xiaoyu girl, please go back first, otherwise your mother will talk about you again."

"Hey, we're going back first. Grandpa Qin, don't be too anxious. If it doesn't work... I won't give it to you on this birthday." Gu Jinli hurriedly made Tang Dao, hoping to give it to Qin Sanlang as a birthday gift, but the Tang Dao was too craftsmanship. It's complicated. Even though Gu Jinli learned to make Tang knives in his previous life, the one making Tang knives now is not her, but Mr. Qin and the others, so there is no rush.

And she not only wants to make Tang Dao, but also has to give the craftsmanship of Tang Dao and all the masters who can make Tang Dao to Qin Sanlang, so she can't rush, Xiangzi and the others have to master all the techniques before it can be considered a real success. .

Mr. Qin was a soldier all his life and knew the importance of a good sword to a soldier, so he was impatient. However, after listening to Gu Jinli's words, he knew better than to be impatient. He nodded and said, "Okay, Grandpa Qin, don't be impatient. You guys go first." go home."
