"Oh? I'll try it!"

Inside the workshop office building.

Li Zexuan took over a sword made of vanadium steel, looked at it carefully for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "The sword is slender, the blade is like autumn frost, and the light is cold. It is better than 95% of the swords on the market! Not bad! The craftsman who forged the sword is very skilled, it should be rewarded!"

Li Zexuan nodded with satisfaction. At this time, he took another iron rod from the corner behind the door. This iron rod was made of pure iron, and there was no carbon added in it, not even steel. In fact, although steel-making technology existed in ancient times, steel-making technology was only available in some steel-making workshops and general supervisors controlled by the imperial court. few!

Li Zexuan picked up the vanadium steel sword, waved it lightly, without using any internal force, and slashed it on the iron rod so casually, only to hear the sound of "keng", leaving a sword about three millimeters deep on the iron rod. mark!

This is already quite remarkable. After all, he just waved lightly and casually. If he really used all his strength, or even used his internal strength, then he would be sure to use this vanadium steel sword to cut off the iron rod in his hand!

Such a sharpness, although not as sharp as his Wind Chasing Sword, has far surpassed the swords of this era!

Li Zexuan turned around and looked at the vanadium steel armor that Wang Ji was holding. It was a Mingguang armor. The origin of the word "Mingguang armor" was said to be related to the round guards on his chest and back. Because this kind of round guard is mostly made of metals such as copper and iron, and the polished aurora resembles a mirror. Wearing bright light armor on the battlefield will emit a dazzling "bright light" due to the irradiation of the sun, hence the name Mingguang armor.

Mingguang armor originated very early, and it existed in the Three Kingdoms period. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Mingguang armor and Liangjiao were the most commonly used. The Liangjiao is generally made of small pieces of armor with fish scales and other shapes. The length has extended to the abdomen. It replaced the leather armor skirt before the Sui Dynasty. The hem of the body armor is meniscus-shaped and lotus-leaf-shaped to protect the lower abdomen. These improvements greatly enhance defense below the waist.

In addition to these two types of armor, many new types of armor were also developed in the Tang Dynasty. According to the "Tang Liu Dian", there are Guangyao, Xilin, Shanwen, Bird Hammer, White Cloth, Zao Juan, Cloth Back, Infantry, Leather Armor, Twelve other types of armor, such as wooden armor, chains, and waistcoats. Among them, Guangyao, Suozi, Shanwen, Bird Hammer, and thin scale armor are iron armor, and the latter three are named after the style of armor pieces. Leather armor, wooden armor, white cloth, soap cloth, and cloth back are named after the manufacturing materials.

"The style of this bright light armor is very good. Did the craftsman who made it work in the supervisor or the Ministry of Engineering before?"

Li Zexuan touched the smooth surface of the armor and asked softly.

Wang Ji smiled and replied: "Shan Chang has a good vision! The craftsman who made this bright light armor is named Zhang Hongsheng, and his father is Zhang Yajiu. He used to be a well-known master craftsman, and his qualifications and skills are not under Yan Shangshu. , but he is old now and has retired from prison. He inherited his father's business. Zhang Hongsheng inherited Zhang Yajiu's skills of forging swords and armor. The most skilled swordsman and armor maker!"

"Zhang Yajiu~?"

When Li Zexuan first heard the name, he felt a little familiar. After muttering it twice, his expression suddenly changed, and he said in shock, "Zhang Yajiu? Mr. Wang, are you saying that Zhang Yajiu's father is Zhang Yajiu? Zhang Yajiu? Have you been a supervisor before? Have you been a colleague with Yan Shangshu?"

Zhang Yajiu, the most famous sword-making master in the Tang Dynasty, the Yajiu sword he cast ranks 14th in the list of ancient and modern weapons in China. The famous Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi once wrote specifically for the Yajiu sword Guo Shi, titled "The Nine Swords of Crows", wrote in the poem: "A thousand years after the death of Ouzhizi, the elves secretly granted Zhang Yajiu, and Yajiu cast the sword in Wu Shanzhong.

In the poem, Bai Juyi believes that Zhang Yajiu's sword-making skills were taught secretly by Ou Yezi who sent an elves a thousand years ago.

As for who Ou Yezi is, this person who must have some historical knowledge knows that Ou Yezi is the originator of ancient Chinese sword casting and the founder of Longquan Sword. When Ou Yezi was born, it was during the disputes between the Eastern Zhou kingdoms. First, Wu State conquered Chu State, and Wu Yue successively annexed the Yangtze River. Forty-five countries to the south. As a boy, he learned metallurgy from his uncle and began to smelt bronze swords, iron hoes, iron axes and other production tools. He discovered the difference in the properties of copper and iron, and smelted the first iron sword "Qixing Longyuan", referred to as Longyuan Sword. In the Tang Dynasty, in order to avoid the taboo of the great ancestor Li Yuan, the word "yuan" was changed to the word "quan", which was called "Qixing Longquan", referred to as Longquanjian, creating a precedent for Chinese cold weapons.

Bai Juyi believed that Zhang Yajiu's sword-casting skills were taught by Ou Yezi in the dark. This shows that Zhang Yajiu's sword-casting skills are superb!

However, there is almost no record of Zhang Ya's nine life stories in the history books, and he can only speculate from some ancient poems. There is nowhere to check about his birth year and resume. Li Zexuan did not expect that in the early years of the Tang Dynasty How could he not be shocked to hear about Zhang Yajiu's deeds, and this old man used to be a prisoner as an imperial messenger?

"The mountain chief also knows Zhang Yajiu? Haha! Zhang Yajiu is very famous in the field of casting swords, and it is normal for the Hou Ye to know him! This person has indeed been serving as a prisoner for a period of time. He loved swords very much. He heard that Zhang Yajiu was extremely skilled in sword casting, so he sent someone to invite Zhang Yajiu to go out to the mountains to cast swords, but at that time Zhang Yajiu was arrogant and directly rejected His Majesty's request.

But the sage was broad-minded and did not feel annoyed. Instead, he personally visited the house. After three visits to the cottage, Zhang Yajiu finally agreed to go out of the mountain and serve as a general on duty. His Majesty's current sword was made by Zhang Yajiu! "

king

Ji smiled and explained.

Li Zexuan nodded suddenly, he didn't expect that there was such a past in it, and suddenly he felt something was wrong, so he asked: "Zhang Yajiu is a famous swordsmith and has been highly regarded by today's saints, even if he is old now , I will resign as a supervisor and go into hiding, but at least I can live without food and clothing? How can I let my son come to work in our workshop?"

Wang Ji frowned and couldn't help but say, "Sir, what do you mean by that? Are all the craftsmen coming to our workshop for money? Are people not allowed to come because of their own hobbies and to realize their ideals? ?"

Lao Wang is obviously hurt by Li Zexuan's words. I think he is now the head of the chemistry department of Yanhuang Academy, and his monthly salary is quite a lot. He is not short of money, and he is busy in the workshop every day? He is here for the ideal!

Li Zexuan knew that he had said something wrong, and with a look of embarrassment on his face, he hurriedly said: "Cough! Mr. Wang, I didn't mean that, I was saying that since Zhang Hongsheng's father was a general supervisor before, why didn't he recommend Zhang Hongsheng? Going to be a supervisor on duty, will he allow his son to come and work in our workshop?"

Hearing this, Old Wang raised his brows and said, "This mountain chief has to ask the fortune steward. Zhang Hongsheng was recruited by the blessing steward. The specific situation, the old man does not know!"

"Master! Zhang Hongsheng was personally invited by the old man. At that time, the old man told him that there are countless rare sword casting materials in our workshop. As long as he can come, all the materials can be used by him. Zhang Hongsheng is like his father, who loves casting. Jian, when I heard this condition offered by the old man, I readily agreed!"

At this moment, Fu Bo came in from the outside and said as he walked.

Apparently, he had just been listening to "The Corner" outside the house for a while!

After hearing this, Li Zexuan felt a little amused. He said, "Uncle Daqing Fu only used some materials to recruit a master trainer for the workshop! It's amazing! It's amazing!"

These words come from the sincerity. Li Zexuan, who was born in engineering, values ​​technology and talents the most. As long as you have technology, money is not a problem, and materials are not a problem!

If all the technical talents in this world can be recruited with just a few materials like Zhang Hongsheng, Li Zexuan thinks there are too many to say, let's recruit 3,000 people first!

Uncle Fu smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Master, you don't know how much materials Zhang Hongsheng costs, every time the workshop gets good sword casting materials, he scrambles to get them. If you don't give them, you will lose your trust. Give it, it will affect the task you have given you. Just now, he ran over to ask the old man if there is a new type of steel called vanadium steel in the old man's workshop, and asked the old man to give him two hundred pounds first. He wants to practice sword!

The old man knows that this vanadium steel is made by the young master using the vanadium ore that he finally obtained. How can he be willing to give it to him, isn't it? He began to make a fuss at the old man's place, saying that the old man did not believe what he said! The old man had no choice but to come over and ask the young master for your help! "

Li Zexuan couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha! Give him! Give him two hundred catties! Doesn't Zhang Hongsheng like refining? I happen to have a new set of armor here, and I need him to help build it~! Song Xiaosi, you go Uncle Fu invited Zhang Hongsheng to come here~!"

"Yes! Young master~!"

Song Xiaosi responded and hurriedly ran out.

After a while, under the leadership of Song Xiaosi, a 27- or 8-year-old shirtless big man walked in from outside.

"Zhang Hongsheng sees Lord Hou!"

Walking into the office, Song Xiaosi tugged at Zhang Hongsheng's sleeve, then secretly pointed at Li Zexuan, and then Zhang Hongsheng saluted Li Zexuan.

"Don't be too polite!"

Li Zexuan smiled slightly, stepped forward to help Zhang Hongsheng up, and then asked, "I heard that you asked Uncle Fu for two hundred kilograms of vanadium steel?"

Zhang Hongsheng's heart tightened, and then he saw that Uncle Fu was still standing in the room. In a flash, he figured out the key points in his heart, thinking that Uncle Fu was suing him for being black, so he said a little angrily: "Master Hou, when a certain Zhang entered this workshop, butler Fu promised me that as long as I wanted the rare sword casting materials, I would be able to satisfy me as much as possible. Now I have only been in the workshop for three months. Do you want to make Fu Guan go back on his promises?"

Seeing this guy stalking his neck, staring, and looking for someone to fight, Uncle Fu frowned and reprimanded: "Zhang Hongsheng, don't be rude in front of Lord Hou! Besides, no one wants to blame you!"

"Haha! Uncle Fu, it's okay! It's okay!"

Li Zexuan waved his hand, but he was not angry at all. Since ancient times, people with great skills have often had a bad temper. Li Zexuan is very patient with such people.

When Zhang Hongsheng heard the second half of Fu Bo's words, he was stunned for a moment. That means Li Zexuan asked him to come over to give him vanadium steel?

Thinking of this, Zhang Hongsheng immediately changed his face and bowed to Li Zexuan: "Master Hou forgives his sins, Zhang was in a hurry, contradicted Master Hou, and I hope Master Hou forgives his sins!"

Li Zexuan said with a smile: "It's okay! The two hundred kilograms of vanadium steel you asked for from Manager Fu earlier, I have approved it, and you will go to the steel factory to get it in a while!"

"Thank you Hou Ye~!"

Zhang Hongsheng was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed his hands.

At the same time, he thought to himself that this young lord is still very good at talking!

Zhang Hongsheng was "seduced" to the workshop by Uncle Fu more than two months ago, and he has been immersed in the blacksmith workshop of the workshop to study the way of casting swords. Usually, he has never seen Li Zexuan. Even if he did, no one gave him He didn't know him either. Today was his first meeting with Li Zexuan.

In the morning, Wang Ji handed him a batch of new steel and asked him to build three swords and three sets of armor.

Shi was a little disapproving, and felt that killing chickens was nothing to do with a bull's knife, so he planned to let his apprentice build it.

But inadvertently, he discovered that the texture of this steel was so hard that he had only seen it in his life. So, out of curiosity, he personally took the knife and created these swords and armor in Li Zexuan's office now.

Of course, he was quite satisfied with the sharpness of the sword that was finally built. When Wang Ji went to his place to "pick up the goods" in the afternoon, he couldn't help asking Wang Ji what kind of steel it was. After vanadium steel, he ran to Fubo to ask for materials!

So, there was such a farce.

"I have long admired Lingzun's name. I heard that you are casting a sword, Hongsheng. It is quite a true biography of Lingzun. I have a sword here. How about you help?"

Seeing Zhang Hongsheng's happy face, Li Zexuan thought it wasn't that difficult to handle this technical talent. In order to take advantage of the victory, he took off the long sword from his waist and said to Zhang Hongsheng.

Zhang Hongsheng felt a little disapproving, secretly thinking that you are a rich and noble prince, what good sword can you have?

However, in order to get the vanadium steel as soon as possible, he still cooperated: "As per your order! Please also ask the Lord Hou to borrow a sword for a look!"

"Here! Here it is!"

Li Zexuan's mouth curled into a wicked smile, and with the scabbard, he threw it to Zhang Hongsheng "lightly".

Seeing that Li Zexuan threw it so casually, Zhang Hongsheng guessed that the sword was very light, so he casually picked up the sword with one hand.

As a result, he was tragic in the blink of an eye!

"Ouch~!"

When the Wind Chasing Sword was in Zhang Hongsheng's hand, Zhang Hongsheng realized that something was wrong, but at this time, even if he wanted to use both hands to pick up the sword, it was too late. Falling down, seeing that his whole body was about to fall to the ground, he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him, and then a hand squeezed his shoulder, preventing him from falling further!

But it was Li Zexuan who dodged, came to him, and supported him!

"Oops! Brother Zhang, I'm sorry! I forgot to tell you, this sword has a lot of weight, and it shocked you!"

Li Zexuan quickly apologized.

This apology immediately made Zhang Hongsheng blushing, and he waved his hands ashamed: "It's Zhang who has a shallow knowledge, but he doesn't know that there is such a small sword in this world, but an extremely heavy sword! No wonder Marquis! Zhang Mou is here to make swords for Lord Hou!"

After all, Zhang Hongsheng was also full of surprises, secretly asking what kind of strange sword this sword is? In terms of size and size, it is no different from an ordinary sword, but why is it so heavy? At least this sword is three to four times heavier than a normal sword!

It is precisely because of this that he was caught off guard just now, and was almost brought to the ground by this sword!

After all, unable to hold back his curiosity, Zhang Hongsheng stood up straight and slowly pulled the Wind Chasing Sword out of the scabbard. Immediately, he was stunned!
