Chapter 147: A Thousand Catties of Steel Forged Every Day

ineral, but it's useless to us!"WhyValuable, but uselessLi Yuxiang can't understand."Hmm..."Yang Lin pondered for a moment before speaking: "In simple terms, this ilmenite is rich in two elements, tit...Yang Lin was instantly stunned, staring at Li Yuyao in disbelief.

"Well Scared"

Li Yuyao puffed out her chest, her face flushed slightly, but her demeanor was not inferior to Yang Lin.

"Come on, let's go! Who's afraid of who!"

Yang Lin also stood up, pulling Li Yujiao forward in large strides.

Since their marriage, they have hardly ever been intimate, and now they will finally be able to indulge…

As they approached the small grove of trees, Yang Lin felt a strange excitement welling up inside him.

Her appearance and temperament were already goddess-like, and now that she was also known to be the Empress, her heart naturally held a few more points of anticipation.

Just then, someone suddenly ran over from a distance.

"Master! Master! I've finally found you!"

The man came running, panting, and scrambled closer.

Yang Lin's brow was already furrowed high with worry. Seeing that it was the guard team, Yang Lin hurriedly asked, "What's wrong"

"It's the foundry, Shunzi Uncle asked me to find you. He said there's good news."

Yang Lin's eyes lit up.

Smelter Good news

Could it be...

Did the steelmaking succeed

Besides that, he couldn't think of anything else good that the smelting workshop could possibly offer.

But now, seeing that the small grove was almost in sight, Yang Lin couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"I got it, I'll be there in a moment!" Yang Lin said.

"Oh oh."

The villager responded and then left.

Looking at the nearby grove of trees, Yang Lin took a deep breath and, pulling Li Yuyao along, continued forward.

Even if the steelmaking is successful, it won't make any difference to me now. I can't get past this hurdle anyway.

This kiss is so close, it's right in front of us!

However, Li Yuyao grabbed him, her face flushed red as she said, "Those who accomplish great things should put aside love affairs!"

Yet Yang Lin said, "Humans are not saints, who can be without feelings If there were no love between parents and children, what would be the point of doing great things"

Yang Lin thought of himself as an ordinary person, with no ambition to accomplish great things. Wasn't it good to have love affairs Wasn't it pleasant to enjoy the company of men and women Why bother putting so many restrictions on himself Just live comfortably however he pleased.

Li Yuyao, however, shook her head seriously.

"Business is important, our affairs..."

Li Yuxiang blushed, somewhat shyly lowering her head and speaking in a hushed voice: "Tonight I'll make it up to you... we'll have plenty of opportunities in the future."

Yang Lin was dumbfounded.

He had never seen Li Yuyao look so shy and demure. Not to mention saying something like "waiting for you tonight," it was as if a cold, aloof ice queen had learned to be cute. Who could resist that

"Good, good, good!"

Yang Lin quickly nodded.

Although some might find it a little over-the-top, the fact that this little grove of trees flew right into his mouth is just proof that men are generally suckers for soft touches. They love this kind of thing.

Let's go, I'll accompany you to see what good thing it is.

When Yang Lin and Li Yuyao arrived at the smelting workshop, they immediately knew that Zhao Shunzi's good news was indeed about steelmaking, and it had been successful!

"Look, master!"

Zhao Shunzi excitedly handed Yang Lin a steel blade that emitted a silvery-white glow.

This knife is two feet long and two fingers wide. Its shape is a bit like the watermelon knives common in my previous life.

Yang Lin was also shocked to see this knife!

Just the gleam of the silver, cold and sharp, already told the story.

Zhao Shunzi then took out two more knives from beside her, introducing them and demonstrating to Yang Lin at the same time.

"Master, this is a wrought iron knife; and this is a tempered steel knife. If you were to clash these steel knives with them, the result would surely surprise you!"

Saying that, Zhao Shunzi immediately began hacking. He held a steel knife and first chopped at the wrought iron blade.

With a deafening clang, the cast iron blade was severed clean in two!

Then he used a steel knife to chop the well-tempered iron knife.

After the clang of metal on metal, a large gash appeared on the iron blade.

Look at the steel knife, it's perfectly fine!

"Hee hee, boss, this is impressive!"

Zhao Shunzi smiled triumphantly.

He'd been forging iron his whole life, and he'd never seen anything this hard!

Unless they forged it themselves, he wouldn't believe it. This steel was simply made from ordinary iron!

Yang Lin, seeing this, was not particularly surprised.

He knew the hardness of steel. Cast iron was hard, but brittle and easy to break.

Cast iron has good ductility, but its hardness is not enough.

And steel combines the characteristics of cast iron and wrought iron, so this steel can also be considered successfully refined!

On the side, Li Yuyao received the steel knife that had just been chopped twice, still intact. She flipped it over and over again for several times, her face becoming increasingly shocked.

"This is the Hundred Refining Blade!"

Li Yuchun excitedly said.

Hundred Refining Blade

Yang Lin had never heard of that name before.

But he immediately thought of a word.

"Tempered a hundred times"

“That’s right!” Li Yunyao nodded. “I once had a peerless blade that could cut iron like mud. I loved it very much, so I specially asked someone to inquire about the refining method. It is said that it requires a master blacksmith with extraordinary skill. After repeated tempering and hammering the edge thousands of times, one can forge such a blade.”

Yang immediately understood.

The purpose of hammering the edge with a hammer is to beat out impurities inside the metal. Then, through some so-called swordmaking secrets, additives like charcoal are introduced to forge a carbon steel edge!

This is a relatively primitive way of alloying.

Li Yuxiang flipped the steel blade in her hand, still excitedly saying: "But only the edge of a hundred-forged sword is this color. Each hundred-forged sword is extremely difficult to forge, taking days or even months. Moreover, only the blade itself has this color."

“But this sword…it’s all this color!”

Looking at the knife in her hand, Li Yuyao's eyes gleamed with intense light.

With such divine weaponry, going into battle would be unstoppable!

If our own generals had such divine weapons in their hands, charging into battle, who could withstand them

How is the steel output And what about the cost

Li Yuxiang hurriedly asked, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Although it has many benefits, if the output is too small or the cost is too high, it is meaningless.

Zhao Shunzi hurriedly said, “Now we can refine about a thousand jin per day.”

"What A thousand pounds"

Li Yuyao widened her eyes and swallowed hard.

This is a beautiful steel knife, not more than three or four jin in weight.

At least three hundred swords can be forged from a thousand jin, which equates to ten thousand swords per year. That's enough to equip an entire army!

Seeing Li Yuyao's reaction, Zhao Shunzi thought that the mistress was not satisfied and hurriedly explained: "Madam, we have just found the key to refining steel, so we can't refine much in a day right now. However, as long as we thoroughly understand the craftsmanship and process, it won't be a problem to refine two thousand catties a day."

Two thousand jin

Li Yuxi's breathing became heavy.

Nissan produces two thousand kilograms of steel per day, which equals twenty thousand blades a year!

She seemed to see an invincible elite army!

Yang Lin, however, just pursed his lips.

Two thousand jin It's only a ton.

If he were to take just any steel mill from his past life, with daily production reaching hundreds or even thousands of tons, this wouldn't even be considered a small workshop.

"What about the cost Is it expensive" Li Yuxiang hurriedly asked this, her most concerning question. for, I might have seen her, but he didn't describe her very clearly just now. I'm not even sure if the woman I saw was the one you're looking for.""So, Miss Zi Yi, could you describe the person you'r...
