The ironware I made shines

Chapter 50 Meng Hua Sword

When Ge Xiaohua arrived at the studio, he lit a fire, and with the blower working, the raging fire burned up, illuminating his face. Ge Xiaohua, who was in deep thought, saw that the temperature was about the same, and put the refined iron block into the stove to heat.

"Smash!" The refined iron block was burning red, Ge Xiaohua fixed him, and then used the sledgehammer to exert force first, this kind of method is not an air hammer, it is completely forged by manpower, the sledgehammer smashed hard, and the flames radiated everywhere. shot, resulting in extremely gorgeous iron flowers!
But beauty is accompanied by threats. Ge Xiaohua's arm was burned by the iron flower. Because he was wearing gloves, his fingers were not injured, but the cotton gloves were still burned black a lot. The quality of the leather apron was not affected.

Even if the machine is equipped with numerical control technology, it cannot be compared with humans. Strength, rhythm, power, etc. are all aspects that cannot be controlled by machines. Start Ge Xiaohua's theory of blacksmiths.

From morning to afternoon, Ge Xiaohua has been forging this sword and has never stopped forging. Although his arm has been numb for a long time, he still doesn't feel it. He has a strong feeling that he will succeed today!

Jinlun wisely didn't yell to remind Ge Xiaohua to eat lunch. He was in a state of high concentration, even if Jinlun yelled, he probably wouldn't be able to hear him.

"Quenching!" Ge Xiaohua started the key step. Whether the quenching is successful or not depends on whether his beating for most of the day has any effect. If the quenching fails, then everything is gone.

"Hey." The sword body made a sound when it entered the mountain spring water, and then the long-lost system notification sounded, which proved that it was still useful for him to study hard these days to forge iron swords.

"Congratulations on your successful creation of a green light iron sword, sharpness +8, exquisiteness +9."

"Congratulations on getting 15 points of ingenuity."

When Ge Xiaohua received these reminders, what he couldn’t understand was why the +9 attribute of exquisiteness and abnormality was used, and the sharpness +8, Ge Xiaohua had been verified on many iron objects, and the sharpness bonus of the sickle was incredible, let alone the sword.

"The attribute bonus of this sword is very high, the green light level is almost breaking through the peak, 10 is the highest value of green light." Ge Xiaohua secretly estimated, named this sword Menghua sword, the length of the sword It has reached 40 centimeters, the handle is 10 centimeters, and the overall length is about 50 centimeters. It is much shorter than ordinary long swords. It is shaped like a bronze sword, so it is different from the current long sword model, similar to the feeling of a bronze sword, and The forging pattern on the sword body is very exquisite, Ge Xiaohua looked at it carefully, and was attracted by the pattern on the sword body that he forged.

"Extraordinarily exquisite is the artistic quality of this decoration?" Ge Xiaohua thought to himself, these decorations were made by folding and forging 9 layers, each folded layer, the number of knocking reached hundreds of times, and repeated, Ge Xiaohua forged it The Menghua sword has produced extremely beautiful patterns, which are more exquisite than those of bronze swords. It must be known that forging iron is much more difficult than bronze.

After Ge Xiaohua finished building the sword, his stomach growled. Seeing Jinlun watching at the door, he tidied up the studio and went out. He touched Jinlun's head and said apologetically, "You're hungry, why don't you?" You have prepared high-grade dog food."

He is happy today, so naturally he wants to give Jinlun delicious food. High-end imported dog food is what Jinlun prefers now. After all, he is a pet dog. After liking dog food, he is immune to other foods. This is also Ge ​​Xiaohua. Training is required to prevent bad people from feeding poisoned food.

Ge Xiaohua is well aware that the phenomenon of poisonous dogs in rural areas is very serious, and the protection of Jinlun is still very strict, not only to improve the safety around the blacksmith shop, but also to improve Jinlun's self-defense awareness, smart Jinlun, as long as a little reminder I understand.

After eating and drinking enough, Ge Xiaohua took a nap and played iron for a long time, his arms were exhausted. When he was a child, he heard that the three most difficult jobs in the world were boating, blacksmithing, and tofu making.

When other people mocked Grandpa Ge Xiaohua, they would also say these words. In fact, it is true. Forging iron is very hard, especially in that era without the assistance of machines. It was purely hand-made. Whether it was agricultural tools or swords, it had to be struck with a hammer. You can see how tired I am.

Ge Xiaohua has experienced the hard work of blacksmiths, and he must continue to develop this profession, because once young people are afraid of hard work and quit working as blacksmiths, it will be extremely terrifying if this industry declines.

The successful creation of Menghua sword has given him great confidence. He can delve into other types of swords. There is a general structure of a sword. If he makes changes in details under this category, then it will be an original sword of his own. The same is true for the sword and the Menghua sword. It is an iron sword of the new era extended from the shape of the iron sword in the late Spring and Autumn Period. As a green light iron sword, the exquisite and unusual sword body decoration is very special. Artistic.

But as an unknown blacksmith, it is still difficult to sell this Menghua sword at a high price. Fame is the most important point, followed by the quality of the sword. Ge Xiaohua is eager to open the situation and spread the reputation of Ge's blacksmith shop to the outside world The expansion is limited to the surrounding area of ​​the county seat. This is not Ge Xiaohua's style. He wants to face the whole country and the world!
After resting for another two days, Ge Xiaohua's mental and physical condition recovered, and he planned to continue making weapons. Originally, he mainly made farm tools, but he didn't need to keep improving. He didn't have such a famous name, but now it's different. It takes time and effort to make a sword every time. , The energy consumed is still a lot, and Ge Xiaohua needs a learning process. In the process of relaxing, he does not forget to study, and checks the shapes and building methods of various weapons on the Internet. With this knowledge, Ge Xiaohua Still very useful.

"Hi, is this Master Ge Xiaohua? I'm Ouyang Yecheng from Hong Kong." Ge Xiaohua received Ouyang Yecheng who ordered the bronze sword in the animation last time. After a while, he actually took the initiative to contact Ge Xiaohua, which made him a little embarrassed. I don't know how their company is cooperating with Li Xiaogan's factory.

But this is someone else's privacy, Ge Xiaohua is inconvenient to ask, so he said: "Mr. Ouyang? What can you do with me?"

"It's like this. There will be a global excellent cold weapon exhibition in Hong Kong a week later. Our group is the organizer of this exhibition, so we want to invite you to participate in the exhibition."

"Cold weapon exhibition? Or global in nature?"

"Yes, there will be swordsmiths from all over the world participating."

Ge Xiaohua was still thinking about how to increase the reputation of Ge's blacksmith shop. Now that there is such an exhibition, he is still very moved, so he agreed to participate, but a week is still too urgent.

Ouyang Yecheng suggested that Ge Xiaohua bring at most three cold weapons. Too many are meaningless. It is very appropriate to choose three for exhibition. Ouyang Yecheng will send people to transport Ge Xiaohua’s swords to Hong Kong by special line. There is no need to worry about safety. , and the Ouyang Group is very powerful, it is not a piece of cake to transport a few "works of art".
