The ironware I made shines

Chapter 4 Inheritance
In the director's office of the Xunjiang County Agricultural Machinery Bureau, Ge Jianguo held a sickle in his hand and looked up and down. When he saw the familiar "Ge" at the end, he thought a little bit.

"Dad made a batch of sickles in the early years, but the shape is not like this, and it can be concluded that I did not make them. If the symbol of Ge's blacksmith shop can be used, who would it be?" This sickle was made by Ge Xiaohua A sickle with +3 sharp attribute, and Ge Jianguo is Ge Xiaohua's biological father.

"Could it be Xiaohua who hit it? But isn't he in Guangdong City?" Ge Jianguo was very puzzled. This sickle was brought by his friend for him to appreciate, and he knew that he was a blacksmith.

Thinking of this, Ge Jianguo called his son, and it took a long time before he answered the phone.

"Xiao Hua, are you in Guangdong City?"

"Yes."

Ge Xiaohua hesitated for a while and said, Ge Jianguo knew his son very well, and after a brief chat about family affairs, he was convinced of his speculation, but he didn't say anything clearly.

On the other hand, Ge Xiaohua answered his father's call and said to himself: "Have you been discovered? Forget it, if you know it, you will know it."

Ge Xiaohua didn't care about it either, and continued to forge iron in the blacksmith shop to increase the level of forging and the value of ingenuity.

In the afternoon, Ge Xiaohua was still blacksmithing in front of the stove, but he didn't notice a van coming from the yard.

"Dad, you scared me." Ge Xiaohua didn't know how long Ge Jianguo stood behind him, but he could feel that Ge Jianguo's face was cloudy and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Come when you're sanding, why not use a sander?"

"Do you believe me when I say I have no money to buy high-tech equipment?"

"Who are you kidding? How much does a sand mill cost? Now that online shopping is so convenient, don't you young people like to tinker with these?"

"To be honest, I know that sand mills and air hammers will save more effort, but my current technology is not up to standard. I have to master these traditional ones, and then I can use these machines instead for efficiency. I don't need them for the time being."

Ge Jianguo saw that he spoke so earnestly. From the aspects of the action and process of blacksmithing just now, Ge Xiaohua really put his heart into it.

"Are you really planning to make a living by blacksmithing?" Ge Jianguo said such a sentence suddenly, which seemed to be negotiating with Ge Xiaohua.

"Yes, blacksmithing is not ashamed, and you can survive. Moreover, when Grandpa passed away, he always hoped that the signboard of Ge's blacksmith shop could continue. I am willing to carry this flag!"

"Well, since this is the case, we need to have a competition to see if you are qualified." Ge Jianguo took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and went to the blacksmith shop to operate very skillfully.

Ge Xiaohua doesn't know exactly what his father is going to do, but he doesn't feel discouraged. Now that he is an adult and has been wandering around for a few years, he has his own ideas, and he should decide his own life.

An hour later, Ge Jianguo forged a long knife. Although it was made in a hurry, it could be seen that it was extremely sharp.

"Xiaohua, now you can forge a weapon on the spot, or compare it with me with a weapon that you think is well-built."

"How to compete?"

"It's very simple, I cut you, you cut me..."

If outsiders heard it, they would think that there was a fierce conflict between father and son, which would lead to bloodshed.

"Dad, does it need to be so bloody?"

"Under normal circumstances, it is necessary to have a professional referee, but now there are very few such highly respected blacksmiths, so the easiest way is to fight each other. Use the weapon you made to chop mine, and then I will hack you."

"Okay." If you just slash like this, what you need is not sharpness but sturdiness!

Ge Xiaohua took out the +5 strong sickle. During this period of time to build agricultural tools, there was basically no shiny iron, but the value of ingenuity increased a lot.

Now that he has accumulated about 50 points of ingenuity, he still needs about 50 points before the upgrade. He is looking forward to the changes after the upgrade, but now he has to solve the problem of his father.

"Sickle? Xiaohua, you want to fight with my long knife with this sickle?"

"Yes, the main reason is that I can only make farm tools now, and I am not proficient in swords."

"That's fine, I won't take advantage of you, I'll chop off my long knife for you first."

"Flip a coin."

When Ge Jianguo saw this, he didn't say much. He chose the side of the word and guessed it right, so he first took out the knife and chopped the sickle made by Ge Xiaohua!

In order to prevent accidents, Ge Jianguo wore some armor and fixed the sickle instead of letting Ge Xiaohua hold it, so the risk would be much lower.

I saw Ge Jianguo holding a long knife and aiming at the fragile part of the sickle blade. The huge shock made Ge Jianguo's arm numb. Fortunately, he took protective measures in advance and wore thick gloves.

"Huh, that's not right." Ge Jianguo imagined that the sickle was broken in two, but instead the long knife had a gap.

"Dad, your long knife isn't very good. Is it my turn?" Seeing that Ge Jianguo was still in a daze, Ge Xiaohua knew that he would go all out to win the second round at this time.

Therefore, the long knife was fixed, and the gap was deliberately placed in a conspicuous place, and protective equipment, goggles, gloves, breastplate, etc. were worn to prevent the fragments from hurting people.

"Clang!" Ge Xiaohua brandished his sickle and aimed at the gap of the long knife, a fatal blow came, and the murderous long knife was cut off by the sickle.

The sickle with +5 sturdiness attribute is really extraordinary. You must know that this sickle can't even hit a big hammer.

What's more, although Ge Jianguo was born as an old blacksmith, after all, he hasn't made ironware for many years. The level of the long knife made in a hurry must not meet the standard of the peak period, so he was easily defeated.

"Okay, I lost, and the position of Ge's blacksmith shop is officially passed on to you!" Ge Jianguo took out a sign from his body, with the word Ge on it, and the shape was extremely exquisite.

"This is the waist badge of our Ge family's ancestors. It is said that the ancestors used meteorites to forge it. Now it is passed on to you."

Ge Xiaohua's expression was dignified, and he took the Meteorite Waist Plaque with both hands. The responsibility of this inheritance was enormous, and he felt infinite pressure.

Seeing that there are successors in Ge's blacksmith shop, Ge Jianguo was ecstatic in his heart. It is very rare for young people nowadays to be able to settle down and forge iron.

And in such a short period of time, under the condition of basically self-study, such a sophisticated scythe was built, which exceeded Ge Jianguo's expectations.

Although he also felt that it was embarrassing for Ge Xiaohua to go back to his hometown to blacksmith after studying for so many years, but since he had made up his mind, it would be useless to force him like this.
"Xiaohua, I will drive the van at home for you, it will be more convenient for you to bring goods into the city."

"But……"

"Don't worry, there is still a car at home, which is enough for me to travel."

"Thank you."

"Why are you talking about this between father and son? By the way, your mother's ideological work is not easy to do. Don't tell her yet. Wait for me to enlighten you slowly."

After all, Ge Jianguo is a civil servant, he is well-informed and has a higher vision, so he is more reasonable.

Besides, he was also a blacksmith himself, so he understood Ge Xiaohua's thoughts, but Ge Xiaohua's mother was different.

If you know that Ge Xiaohua has given up everything in the big city and returned to his hometown to work on iron, it must be unacceptable, and Ge Xiaohua will not be able to solve the problem.
