I Turned My Daily Skills Into Divine Ability

"Manager Zhang, Manager Wang, I'm really sorry. We will definitely find a way to repay the money. Please give us some more time. Even if we have to sell the house, we will repay you. But selling the house also takes time. Can you give us some more time for the sake of our relationship with Iron Mountain?" Wei Xue pleaded helplessly.

They had just bought this courtyard, and they didn't have much spare money left.

During this period, Wei Yi fell ill and spent money on medical treatment.

Wei Tieshan went to prison, and she went everywhere to give gifts and build relationships, bribing the yamen officials, which completely emptied their house.

They simply couldn't come up with the money to repay them unless they sold the house again.

"We also need the money urgently, at most half a month!" Wang Shouyin stared at Wei Xue with a fierce gaze.

Zhang Xingye on the side also agreed with him.

Hearing Wang Shouyin's words, Wei Yi, who had been silent, stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, two managers. According to the previous contract, we are supposed to forge at least twenty swords every month, and it should be completed in a total of eight months.

If we fail to meet the agreement for two consecutive months, it will be considered a breach of contract, and the outstanding debt must be paid in full.

Last month, my second uncle already forged thirty swords for you.

It's only been a few days since this month started. Aren't you too impatient?"

Wei Yi was very clear about Wei Tieshan borrowing money from them.

Because he was the one who helped write the contract.

And they lent money to Wei Tieshan because it was profitable for them.

Wei Tieshan borrowed a total of two hundred taels of silver from them, but had to use two hundred swords to repay the debt.

It should be noted that according to the price of supplying swords to Myriad Sword Pavilion, these two hundred swords were worth at least three hundred taels of silver.

Moreover, the swords forged by his second uncle were of superior quality.

If they were sold on the market, one sword could easily be sold for four or five taels of silver.

If they were branded with the Myriad Sword Pavilion logo, they could sell for at least ten taels of silver.

So there was a lot of profit in this, which was why they lent money to Wei Tieshan.

It should be noted that in the Great Yan Dynasty, wearing a sword was a symbol of status and was popular throughout the country.

Just like the luxury watches for men and brand-name bags for women in the previous life.

It was a symbol of status and wealth.

So whether it was martial artists, scholars, or businessmen and officials, they would all wear swords.

On one hand, it was to show their status, and on the other hand, it was for self-defense.

After all, this world was not peaceful. In addition to bandits and thieves, there were also demons and evil spirits.

There were also many martial artists and cultivators.

In addition, Qingzhou City was close to the border and adjacent to Xuanzang Mountain.

That place was a place where opportunities and dangers coexisted, and it also hid many ancient ruins.

Adventurers often enter Xuanzang Mountain for hunting and treasure hunting.

This also led to the booming sword and weapon industry in Qingzhou City.

This is also the reason why Wei Tieshan was able to buy a house in the city of Qingzhou.

"Without Wei Tieshan, how can you fulfill the agreement?" Wang Shouyin's momentum weakened slightly.

Because what Wei Yi said was true, he also remembered that the contract was written with Wei Yi's help and was very clear about the details.

It is obviously impossible to intimidate them.

"We naturally have a way!" Wei Yi said firmly.

"The contract was written by you, so you should also know that according to the agreement, not just any quality of sword can be accepted, it must meet the standards of the Myriad Sword Pavilion's sword inspection," Wang Shouyin said again.

But the aggressive momentum just now has disappeared.

"Of course, gentlemen, why not have a little more patience? If you can get the swords according to the previous agreement, wouldn't it be better for you?

With these two hundred swords, you can earn at least one hundred taels of silver. It's not easy to earn one hundred taels in eight months! " Wei Yi said again.

He knew that Wang Shouyin actually wanted the swords more than the silver, after all, they also wanted to make money.

"We do want the swords, but without Wei Tieshan, who in your blacksmith shop has his skills?" Wang Shouyin said again.

"Me!"

Wei Yi's words surprised Wang Shouyin and Zhang Xingye.

Of course, Wei Xue and Wei Qing, mother and daughter, were also surprised.

They knew Wei Yi very well. He was a weak scholar who couldn't even lift a hammer.

And he was especially afraid of the red-hot iron.

In the past, he always kept his distance, let alone letting him come forward to swing a hammer and forge iron.

But they also guessed that Wei Yi was probably using a delaying tactic, so they remained calm and watched the situation.

"You? A weak scholar like you can forge iron?" Wang Shouyin looked Wei Yi up and down, obviously not believing his words.

"You also know that I am the only male member of the Wei family. My second uncle treated me like his own son. Naturally, he taught me all his skills. Although I don't like dealing with iron, I know the core techniques of forging swords.

Although my strength is not as good as my second uncle's, we still have other blacksmiths in our blacksmith shop. I can control the techniques and guide them, so there is no problem.

Gentlemen, why not give us a chance? After all, the deadline of the contract has not arrived yet!" Wei Yi said firmly, full of confidence.

The original owner indeed did not like forging iron.

But after all, his second uncle was a blacksmith, and he was exposed to it every day.

He also learned a lot of theoretical knowledge from his second uncle.

Most importantly, Wei Yi's major in his previous life was in metallurgical engineering.

He dealt with steel and was familiar with the heat treatment process of metals.

Although he had not yet graduated from college, he passed away and transmigrated.

But he believed that as long as he studied and practiced well, he might be able to create a sword of the same quality as his uncle's.

Even if he failed, he could think of other ways during this time.

In any case, he needed to send these two people away for now, so that he would have enough time to think of a solution.

Upon hearing Wei Yi's words, Wang Shouyin furrowed his brows and exchanged a glance with Zhang Xingye.

Suddenly, Zhang Xingye squeezed out a smile and said, "Since that's the case, let's wait. If our nephew can really forge a sword that meets our requirements, then everyone will be happy!"

Wang Shouyin furrowed his brows and looked at Wei Yi.

He also knew that according to the contract, they had no way to get their silver back now, they could only wait and see.

"I hope you're not just talking big!" Wang Shouyin said coldly.

Then he turned and walked towards the courtyard, Zhang Xingye also made a slight bow, and then followed Wang Shouyin out.

"Yi'er, thanks to you, otherwise Aunt really wouldn't know how to deal with them. But don't worry, Aunt will find a way to raise money as soon as possible, if it doesn't work... we'll sell this courtyard!"

Wei Xue looked around reluctantly, looking at the house, looking at the blacksmith's forge and the ironing grass mat canopy.

Usually, the noise there was annoying, but now it felt desolate and made people feel anxious.

This was the "home" they had worked so hard to buy, and they really didn't want to sell it again.

They thought they finally had a place to settle down, but they didn't expect to continue drifting.

"Aunt, I wasn't lying to them just now, I really want to give it a try!" Wei Yi said seriously.

"Yi'er, your hands are for holding a pen, not for doing rough work, you can't do blacksmithing, and you shouldn't do it. Your task is to study hard, achieve success in the future, and let your aunt and your uncle rest in peace!" Wei Xue said with a serious expression.

She really didn't want Wei Yi to do the rough work of blacksmithing, nor did she want Wei Yi to become a blacksmith like Wei Tieshan.

"Yes, brother, everyone has their own expertise. You are a scholar, not a blacksmith, and you just recovered from a serious illness, your body hasn't fully recovered, you can't exert too much force. We'll think of another way, you're so smart, you'll definitely come up with something!" Wei Qing wiped away the tears on her face and expressed concern for Wei Yi's well-being.

Wei Yi also knew that his sister and aunt were not just saying nice things.

They had always loved him, even spoiled him.

They gave him everything good and never let him do any rough or tiring work.

"Aunt, Qing'er, I am also a man of the Wei family. Now that Uncle is in trouble, I must shoulder the responsibility of this family. Trust me, there is nothing I can't do. I can study and I can also do blacksmithing. We will definitely overcome this difficulty. Aunt, let's not rush to sell the house!" Wei Yi said firmly.

Without saying more, he walked straight towards the blacksmith's forge.

Then he said to the boy sitting next to the forge, holding a twig and looking bored, "Shi Tou, light the fire and start heating the materials!"

The blacksmith shop used to have several apprentices, but they were mostly assisting his uncle.

Or they were responsible for forging low-end iron tools.

But after his uncle had an accident, the house became chaotic, and his aunt didn't understand anything about the blacksmith shop.

And all the money at home was used to bribe the yamen officials, so there was no money to give them, and they were temporarily dismissed.

And Stone was an orphan that Second Uncle picked up from outside.

Although this child is single-minded and a bit slow, he is obsessed with blacksmithing and very obedient.

So Second Uncle took him as an apprentice.

After all, in Second Uncle's opinion, his skills cannot be inherited by his own nephew, there must always be someone to carry on.

"Good!" Hearing Wei Yi's words, Stone immediately became interested and started to light the furnace.

Although he was young, he was very strong, and the bellows were pulled by him with a whooshing sound, making the fire in the furnace extremely vigorous.

It didn't take long to heat the iron.

Wei Yi put on an apron, rolled up his sleeves, put on gloves, and picked up tongs to take out a piece of iron from the blacksmith's furnace and placed it on the anvil.

His right hand held the hammer, which was indeed a bit heavy.

But it wasn't really impossible to lift, after all, he was a grown man, and he still had some strength.

Wei Yi swung the hammer and smashed it hard.

Clang—

Along with the sparks flying from the iron, a number suddenly appeared in Wei Yi's mind.

"What's going on?" Wei Yi blinked, thinking that the flying sparks had made him dizzy.

He swung the hammer again, smashing it heavily.

Along with another clang, another number appeared in front of him.

This time, Wei Yi was sure he wasn't dizzy.

He was surprised, but also a little expectant. Without further ado, he immediately swung the hammer again and repeatedly pounded the iron.

Clang—clang—clang—

Along with the continuous pounding of the hammer on the red iron.

In Wei Yi's eyes, in addition to the dazzling sparks, there were also the constantly popping numbers.

80! 80! 80!

"What are these numbers?" Wei Yi was curious.

But at this moment, his mind was suddenly flooded with a lot of information.

At the same time, a semi-transparent progress bar appeared in front of him.

On it were several golden characters: Liver Emperor System activation successful!
