Han Duan was almost forced by Bai Wang and He Zhen to go to the sword forging workshop, because the two were somewhat curious about what would happen to the usual weapons of the sharp warriors after they were recast. More importantly, they were more curious about what would happen to the magical existence of the sword spirit after the recast.

Of course, the simple and crude logic of these two guys was that since the sword spirit was raised by us, even if it died, it could be remade. Anyway, I don’t believe that the sword spirit never died once in the process of raising it before!

Who am I, what level am I, how can I not know? In the early days when I couldn’t feel the sword spirit, the sword spirit must have been raised to death by me.

"Brother Han, relax, think about who we are, we can even raise a dog to death, how could such a high-end thing as the sword spirit not have any problems in the process of raising it, it must have been raised to death!" He Zhen said with excitement on his face while holding Han Duan.

"Yes, yes, yes, for big guys like us, sword spirits must be the typical ones that are tough and durable, otherwise they must have been raised to death by us. Old Han, tell me with your conscience, can you raise such delicate things?" Bai Wang also excitedly carried Han Duan to forge the sword. He was really curious about whether the sword spirit would become two after forging the sword. This is a classic question.

"Why don't you try it yourself? You have to put me on the rack to try it." Han Duan shouted at the two dogs with a dark face.

"Because we only need one sword, not two, and you really need two swords now. Let's go, while there are many people in Chang'an now, let's go forge swords, maybe it will work!" He Zhen and Bai Wang held Han Duan on the left and right, and ran to the place where the mining and smelting department of the Shaofu was in charge, ready to get a weapon for free.

"I really don't trust you two bastards." Han Duan struggled hard, but was held tightly by He Zhen and Bai Wang, and finally dragged to Huayang Smelting Department.

"Sima Bai, Sima He, and Commandant Han, what are you doing here in Huayang Smelting Department?" The Cao official in charge of the Smelting Department didn't know these three guys, but Song Yuan, the veteran guarding the gate of the Smelting Department, knew these three guys. Seeing this man coming in a mess, he immediately went to meet him.

"Old Song is still calling his position." Bai Wang laughed and scolded.

"This is not work, unlike you, I have to watch this gate every day." Song Yuan said unhappily. He was quite satisfied with watching this gate before, because he was disabled before, and the Han Dynasty arranged such a position for him. He only needed to sit here and watch the people coming and going every day and register them. Now forget it, Song Yuan said that he just wanted to kill people.

The problem is that in Chang'an, a job like this where everyone has their own job, you have to go through the process even if you want to resign. As a result, today Song Yuan just listened to a group of brothers gambling in the gambling house, and they were gambling with the Romans. They were gambling like crazy, and then he was watching the place here.

There is no way. This job is full-time. It used to be a good job for Song Yuan to settle down, but now that Song Yuan's arm has been reattached, this is not a good job for Song Yuan. Although he has been idle for several years after his disability, Song Yuan is at least a top five-layer smelter, and he can be listed on the world veteran list. It would be very strange to continue watching the place like this every day.

"How is the new arm?" Bai Wang asked Song Yuan. When Song Yuan was disabled before, the brothers would at most bring Song Yuan some gifts when they passed by Chang'an, but they didn't dare to ask for too many things. Now that he is no longer disabled and a bright future has come, there is nothing else to say, just do it!

"It has been assimilated, but it will take a lot of fine training to recover. Now it is about 90% of the level, and it can use some forbidden moves. I heard that you fought with Rome today. How is it?" Song Yuan replied briefly, and then took the three brothers inside, asking as he walked.

"The people from Rome are all tough guys. There are three who can be regarded as the seventh level, and there are a group of sixth level. You know Lao Yuan's gambling house." He Zhen explained with some emotion.

"The one that cheats, right? I occasionally go there to make some money when I have no money." Song Yuan nodded, and saw what an excellent fifth-level smelting veteran is. This is it. The veteran who can go to Lao Yuan's gambling house to withdraw money steadily when he has no money is the real elite monster.

"The Romans won a lot there." Han Duan nodded, "I went down and fought with one of them, and almost capsized."

Song Yuan's face became much more solemn. The veterans who have been to Lao Yuan's casino can best understand what it means to win money in that broken place. That is really strong, deadly strong!

Especially when the top veterans gather together, they can generally win money, which is really amazing.

Many times, the veterans of Chang'an went to Lao Yuan's gambling house not to win money, but to watch the big guys gamble, lose some money to the big guys, and then see how the big guys cheat with their own eyes, and learn new skills. If they can make people pay money to learn, it can only mean that this thing is really useful.

"These Romans who came were also carefully selected. At least when everyone didn't know the basics, the Romans won more and lost less, which means that the average level is slightly higher than ours." Bai Wang said expressionlessly, "We finally had a cricket competition with Rome. How to say it, we won by a narrow margin, but even so, it ended in a draw."

"There's nothing we can do. Many of our brothers are not here." Song Yuan led Bai Wang and others to the depths of Huayang Smelting Department. The rolling heat waves invaded several people. It was just the time for molten steel. The three of them watched the golden red molten steel pour into the ground trough, and then it was quickly taken away by the blacksmith with a large pair of pliers. Then there was a clanging sound on the other side.

"Master Song, the situation is not good. The blast furnace may be broken." After a furnace of molten steel went down, Cao Guan of the Smelting Department walked quickly and whispered to Song Yuan. Although Cao Guan was much higher than Song Yuan, the gatekeeper, in terms of rank, Cao Guan gave Song Yuan face when he came. After Song Yuan had his arm grafted this year, although he had not been transferred yet, the two of them were obviously much closer.

"Ah, the steel furnace is going to break?" Song Yuan's face was a little green. Damn it, I just brought three buddies to visit today, and the steel furnace is going to break. Are these three plague gods?

"We have observed irreparable damage. It is estimated that it will break after one or two more times. The big steel furnace has been in use for four years and has produced tens of millions of kilograms of molten steel. If it dies, we have to find the Taichang who is in charge of etiquette to draft a posthumous title." Cao Guan quickly held Song Yuan and explained.

This steel furnace is the one that Stina repaired back then. Li You said that it would not lose money if it could last for a year, and it would make a lot of money in two years. As a result, this steel furnace has been running smoothly for four years. In addition, it is located in the capital, which can be called a national artifact. Many noble families will go back to Chang'an to pay homage to it. After all, it is really amazing.

However, since Zhuge Liang used his special spiritual talent to observe the flaws at the end of last year, he has come here basically once a month. By this month, Zhuge Liang has come here three times, and now even Cao Guan has vaguely discovered the damage.

So now the Cao Guan of Huayang Smelting Department feels that such a big thing cannot be handled by themselves. They have to report to the Government Council, and the Government Council will decide whether to continue to operate until the explosion, or give the steel furnace a posthumous title and leave it alone. These are not things they can handle, and they need instructions from higher levels.

"Brother, it seems that you came at the wrong time today. The two of us have to report to the Government Council. Something big has happened." Song Yuan said to Bai Wang and the other two with some helplessness.

"Well, then you guys go and deal with it quickly. The three of us are just looking for a swordsmith to help forge swords, so there is no rush." ​​As a sound-killing warrior, Bai Wang has an instinct to eavesdrop on others, so although the Cao Guan and Song Yuan communicated in a low voice, Bai Wang also knew that something big had happened.

"Swordsmith?" Song Yuan raised his eyebrows. "If you are not in a hurry, wait for a while until Master Pu comes back. Then you can go find him."

"I don't know when his orders will be filled. We don't need such good weapons. Just good swords will be fine." He Zhen was speechless. Don't they know what Pu Yuan is like? There are not too many people who ask that guy to make swords every year.

"If you don't need such good weapons, then go to the Yellow River Forging Factory. Xiangli has a fully automatic steel rolling workshop. You can go to Xiangli. The quality of the weapons they make is actually very good. At least among the standard weapons, they are absolutely top-notch. Even if you are willing to pay more money, they can make weapons close to Pu Yuan's level." Song Yuan thought for a while and said.

How can I say that Xiangli's mechanical manufacturing level is really amazing, and they know how to make this. In addition, their core technology is actually optimizing the assembly line, so when Xiangli can make swords, they can make swords in batches and on a large scale.

The reason why Pu Yuan has forged fewer swords in recent years is that Xiangli has built a steel rolling workshop. The way of forging swords and knives by rolling steel is a dimensionality reduction blow to ordinary swordsmiths. Many craftsmen who make a living by forging swords have directly withdrawn from this industry due to this technological innovation.

There is no way. After Xiangli's steel rolling forging came out, not to mention the explosive growth in production efficiency, just talking about quality, the works of Pu Yuan, the first swordsmith in the Three Kingdoms, in the past few years are no longer as good as the things coming off the assembly line of the steel rolling workshop.

In Xiangli's words, what forging, I have hundreds of tons of rolled steel stamping and forming in one piece, Pu Yuan has to withdraw from the trend of the times.

Pu Yuan did not retreat, but he felt the pain of South Korea, one of the seven major powers in the Warring States Period. It was obvious that the best crossbows in the world were made by South Korea, but when it came to the crossbows on the battlefield, they were all made by Qin. There was no way. Xiangli said that one strong crossbow was not strong. If you make one, I will make a hundred, or even a thousand. Even if each one is only 95% of your level, it is enough to pile you to death!

In fact, let alone 95%, even if it is 70%, it is almost enough to pile you to death.

Now Pu Yuan is facing the rolling of Xiangli's steel rolling workshop. Even if it is only a few hundred tons of steel rolling, it is enough to make Pu Yuan dizzy. As a top sword-making master, Pu Yuan has faced this kind of situation for the first time in his life. More importantly, as a master, he still has to have some face. If he can't beat the standardized stuff, he thinks he should quit this business.

However, the problem is that it will take a lot of time for Pu Yuan's existing technology to defeat Xiangli's steel rolling and stamping. In the past, Pu Yuan could make a sword in just over ten days, but this level has been caught up with and surpassed by steel rolling and stamping technology. Even if you are willing to spend more money, and if Xiangli is not busy recently, they can adjust the metal smelting process to give you excellent metal properties.

The weapons made in this way can catch up with the fine weapons that Pu Yuan spent more than a month to make before. Then the question is, how much is the efficiency difference between the two!

In short, Pu Yuan can only barely maintain his position with inefficient manual fine weapons. Xiangli's steel rolling and stamping are too powerful.

"Is it reliable?" Bai Wang frowned and asked. He really didn't understand these new technologies, so he was inevitably a little skeptical. After all, in the past few decades, they have heard about how powerful the fine weapons hand-forged by the big guys are. The standard weapons on the assembly line, no matter how exaggerated, can't catch up with the big guys' handwork.

"There are so many swordsmiths in the world, and there used to be a swordsmith exchange competition, but since the year before last, there has been no swordsmith exchange competition, because the swordsmith exchange competition the year before last was held next to Xiangli's, and Xiangli also went to join in the fun, and then used their own steel rolling and stamping to make a batch of sword blanks, and the front was opened on the spot, defeating almost all swordsmiths." Song Yuan said with some emotion.

The big guys on the front line don't pay much attention to this information, but he is in the smelting department in the rear, and this kind of news is a big internal news, and he can't help but pay attention to it.

In fact, Song Yuan's so-called defeat of almost all swordsmiths has already given other swordsmiths some face, because the swordsmith exchange competition is on-site swordmaking, which only takes a few days. The swords made were indeed fine products in the past, but compared with things like steel rolling and stamping, they are toys.

All were cut off, Pu Yuan's swords were cut off.

Xiangli was deeply embarrassed by this. They said that they were just here to join in the fun. When the locals saw such a large group of people crowded together, they followed them to take a look, and then found out that it was swordmaking, so they produced a batch of sword blanks to participate in the competition. As a result, who knew that you were so fragile!

Fragile ass, the weapons made by Pu Yuan's group were absolutely top-notch ten years ago, but they couldn't withstand Xiangli's high-dimensional crushing. Playing ass, this is already a generation gap.

"Why don't we give it a try?" He Zhen suggested to Han Duan. They were different from Bai Wang and were willing to accept new things.

"That's fine. It's nothing anyway." Han Duan thought for a while and said. After all, he was from Jizhou and had heard this story before. However, the credibility of local rumors these days was really doubtful. Moreover, Pu Yuan's name was known all over the world and was a trustworthy brand. After all, so many brothers holding Pu Yuan's magic swords and magic knives were all Pu Yuan's products. This was a real brand. So when Han Duan heard this story, he scolded the guy who wrote it for not having good intentions.

But now that this story came out of Song Yuan's mouth, he had to believe it. After all, Song Yuan was a real insider and it was impossible for him to mess with you in this regard.

"Do you really think Xiangli's steel rolling and stamping can catch up with Pu Yuan?" Bai Wang looked at the two and asked. He had seen many brothers who used magic swords and magic knives. Those things were really great. Many people were even willing to spend half of their fortunes to make such a thing. But now they are overtaken by standard weapons. Isn't that funny? If that's the case, those brothers will explode with Pu Yuan!

"Anyway, there's nothing to do. Let's go and take a look. Besides, we don't know when Master Pu Jian's order will be scheduled. We can't squeeze in. Let's go, let's go to the Yellow River Forging Factory." He Zhen has a high acceptance of such new things. After hearing this, he didn't delay and pulled Han Duan to go.

"Let's go, Brother Bai, let's go and have a look." Han Duan also stopped Bai Wang, and then the three of them left Huayang Smelting Department and walked towards Xuanwu Gate, preparing to go directly to the Yellow River Forging Factory. Anyway, with the mobility of the three brothers, it would only take a few days to get there, and it wouldn't take too much time. As for whether it works or not, just take it as an eye-opener.

The next few days were calm, and the Roman brothers went to Yuan's gambling house to gamble day and night. Gamblers like Actaeon felt the joy of winning money, but the brothers who blocked Actaeon also increased day by day. Even if they were top elite veterans, facing the temptation of so many Han veterans, Actaeon was still somewhat powerless. From the previous 80-90 wins to the current 50-50, it only took a few days.

After all, many tricks have been seen many times, and naturally there will be ways to crack them, which is why Yuan's gambling house has been open until now.

Many veterans come here not to gamble, but to learn new skills and broaden their horizons. After all, many damn tricks are purely first-time kills. If you are prepared, it's not a big problem. But if you don't realize what kind of attack logic this is, you might be taken away on the spot.

"Why have you been chasing me recently?" Naki's figure appeared from the alley, and Hanyu and Jinpeng's faces became ugly. The two of them found evidence that Naki had problems, but before they could send the evidence out, Naki suddenly appeared in the alley.

"The situation is a bit bad, Lao Jin." Although Hanyu was smiling, his smile was very ugly. Naki had problems, and they had big problems, but this huge problem was exposed now, which was too bad for these two people, and it would really be fatal.

"You go first!" Jinpeng said to Hanyu without looking back, and then he exerted force on his heels and pounced on Naki who appeared on the opposite side, going all out!

Damn it, it didn't even go out
