Chapter 119 The blacksmith profession's downfall (for collection)
Don't look at Xia Jie's appearance of playing tricks, but he is the kind of pig-faced brother with a bright heart, and he has been prepared for a long time.

As soon as Yang Chen moved, he rushed over, punching fiercely with both fists, making Yang Chen startled.

This kid has practiced Tiger Fist to the level of Dacheng!
Three strokes!

Xia Jie fell sideways to the ring, lay on the ground, looked at Tang Jianshen, and waved his fist at Tang Jianshen as if cheering.

"Come on, avenge me!"

"Report to your sister!" Tang Jianshen cursed in his heart: "Do I have a good relationship with you? You can't see me admitting defeat, forcing me to go up to shame!"

"Brother Tang, come on!"

Yesterday morning, the boys who followed Tang Jianshen to block Yang Chen at the stairs all waved their fists together, cheering Tang Jianshen on!
The corner of Tang Jianshen's mouth twitched. At this moment, he already knew that he was not Yang Chen's opponent, but when he saw the eyes of the younger brothers, he couldn't help sighing in his heart.

"It's not easy being the boss! If you do it, you'll be beaten at most!"

"coming!"

Tang Jianshen let out a loud roar, emboldened himself, and jumped onto the ring.

then……

Yang Chen didn't even give him a chance to admit defeat. Every punch hit his left and right faces. Every time Tang Jianshen wanted to admit defeat, Yang Chen would punch him back with his voice.

Five minutes later, Tang Jian fell on the ring with a bruised face and a swollen face.

Xia Jie looked at Wang Kaixuan again. Before he could cheer Wang Kaixuan, Wang Kaixuan instinctively shouted:
"I surrender!"

Looking at Tang Jianshen's pitiful appearance on the ring, the students off the ring surrendered one after another, and no one wanted to turn into a pig's head.

Yang Chen jumped off the ring and walked towards Liang Jiayi: "Come on!"

Liang Jiayi nodded vigorously and walked towards the ring.

It was dark early in winter, and when Yang Chen, Liang Jiayi, and Xia Jie walked out of the school side by side, it was already dark, and under the moonlight, Yang Chen and Liang Jiayi walked towards Tieji blacksmith shop.

"Chenchen, where are you going?" Xia Jie asked puzzledly as he followed.

"Blacksmith shop!"

"What are you doing in the blacksmith shop? You forged weapons there? You are stupid! What good weapons can the blacksmith shop make? You were fooled by the blacksmiths inside, right?

Jiayi, Chenchen's IQ is worrying!
Such a person, are you with him?
Are you thinking about it carefully? "

Yang Chen and Liang Jiayi rolled their eyes neatly, and at the same time quickened their pace, leaving Xia Jie behind.

"It's really hard to tell!"

"boom!"

Yang Chen pushed open the door, and a wave of heat came oncoming.

"Master, you are here!"

The big man in his thirties in the room was smiling like a chrysanthemum.Yang Chen's mouth twitched.

This title has changed!
From the beginning of the little brother to the little master, now even the little one is gone, directly called the master, and also used "you".

"Is the weapon ready?"

Yang Chen looked towards the forging platform, his eyes lit up, and saw two weapons on the forging platform, one was a short dagger and the other was a long knife.

"Are you really building weapons here?" Xia Jie who followed in looked at Yang Chen in surprise.

"It's finished, master, come and see!"

The big man in his thirties, who was as happy as a child, came to the forging platform unexpectedly, leaving Yang Chen speechless for a while.

The man carefully picked up the short dagger with both hands, and brought it to Yang Chen.

"Master, take a look!"

"it is good!"

Yang Chen stretched out his hand to hold the short dagger, and put it in front of his eyes for a closer look. The short dagger exudes a cold light, the body of the dagger is dark and radiant, and the cold light on the edge shows sharpness.

"Master..." The man's face turned red, and he looked like a primary school student seeing his teacher: "I can't make fish scale patterns. I can only make do with it."

"Bring a knife!" Yang Chen said.

"Okay!"

The man ran quickly to the shelf and picked up a back machete from the shelf.

"Come on, let's cut each other!" Yang Chen said.

"it is good!"

The man held a knife in both hands, and Yang Chen also held a dagger in both hands, the two of them slashed at each other.

"Sand... Dangcang..."

The moment the short dagger and the back machete collided, Yang Chen felt like he was cutting tofu, so he cut off the back machete, and the head of the knife fell to the ground, scaring the unprepared Xia Jie to jump up. .

"Xia Jie!"

"Ah?" Xia Jie looked at Yang Chen.

"Come on, then your knife will cut against me!"

Yang Chen knew that he didn't have time to practice in the gravity chamber for today's assessment, so he didn't bring his machete.Seeing Xia Jie carrying a long knife, although it is not as good as Yang Chen's machete, it is also a technological product, much better than weapons produced by blacksmiths.

Xia Jie squinted at Yang Chen: "It's cut off, don't cry!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Chong!"

The answer to Yang Chen was that Xia Jie drew out the machete, and the two of them set up a posture and slashed at each other's weapons.

"Sand... Dangcang..."

Xia Jie's long knife was cut off, and the head of the knife fell to the ground.Xia Jie stared at the broken knife in his hand in a daze, for about three seconds, he jumped up suddenly.

"The knife you accompanied me, I spent 10 yuan on this knife!"

"Okay, I'll pay you! I'll transfer you 10 yuan later!" Yang Chen looked at the dagger in his hand in surprise.

"No, I want a knife like your dagger!"

Yang Chen rolled his eyes, and at this moment, that man hurriedly ran to the forging platform, picked up the long knife, held it in front of Yang Chen with both hands, and said respectfully:
"Master, the blade of this knife is made by me, but the blade part is made by fusion with the piece of iron you forged. Take a look."

Yang Chen put the short dagger on the forging platform, took the long knife, and frowned slightly.

This knife is too light!
This knife is only fifty or sixty catties, but its size is about the same as Yang Chen's three hundred catties machete.This shows that the iron density of forging this knife is not good, and it has not been forged to the extreme.

Now Yang Chen has a wealth of experience in forging. During the forging process, not only the impurities in the iron embryo are forged, but also through forging, the iron is beaten more tightly, changing the density structure.

In fact, the iron that Yang Chen forged could no longer be called iron.

That's called steel!
It is a tribute to those ancient casting masters to make steel from hundreds of refinements!
Yang Chen's eyes fell on the blade, the material of the blade was obviously different from the blade, exuding a cold light.

Holding the knife, Yang Chen looked at Xia Jie and said, "Come on, use your broken knife to strike at me."

"it is good!"

Holding the broken knife in both hands, Xia Jie faced the long knife in Yang Chen's hand and slashed at it.

"Clang! Dang clang..."

The broken knife in Xia Jie's hand broke again.Looking at the long knife in his hand, Yang Chen couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Just adding such a layer of self-forged iron on the blade makes it so sharp?

"Chenchen, I want this knife, please give me this knife!" Xia Jie yelled, staring at the knife in Yang Chen's hand with bright eyes.

"Give you!"

Yang Chen threw the knife at Xia Jie, Xia Jie grasped the handle firmly, and looked at it with joy.

Yang Chen picked up the short dagger on the forging platform, pulled out the short dagger tied to his calf from the sheath, casually threw it aside, and inserted the forged dagger into the sheath.

"Brother, tell me a price, I want this dagger and that knife!"

"No money, no money!" The man waved his hands repeatedly.Then he looked at Yang Chen cautiously, and asked nervously, "Your family is from a family of blacksmiths? The ancient craftsmanship has not been lost?"

"No!" Yang Chen shook his head, then thought for a while and said, "My blacksmithing skills were passed down from others. I only know how to forge iron, not weapons, so I want to learn from you."

"Where do you need to learn! The most important step is forging. As for shaping and quenching, you can learn them as long as you are willing to learn. Only forging is a real skill. I have never seen you who can make iron The embryo is forged like this. Even if I use the iron forged by you to forge weapons, it will definitely not be weaker than those technological weapons worth millions. If you forge a weapon yourself, it is estimated to be worth tens of millions."

Yang Chen originally had the idea of ​​letting Xia Jie and Liang Jiayi strike iron here, and then hearing the other party say that, he couldn't help but become more interested.

"The current status of blacksmiths is very low?"

"It's not so low!" The man sighed and said, "To be honest, the blacksmiths nowadays don't have any old skills. The old skills are almost lost. The weapons we make are as strong, tough and sharp as they are. Modern technological products are incomparable. That is to make a kitchen knife, hoe, shovel and so on. As for making weapons, poor people come to us to buy them. We sell them cheaply! But it is also because we sell them cheaply , and there is not much profit, just to get food and clothing."

"Tell me about the level of those technologically cold weapons first! Wait." Yang Chen took out a stack of money and handed it to Liang Jiayi, saying:

"Jiayi, go to the restaurant next door to book a banquet and ask them to bring it over. We can talk while eating."

"Okay!" Liang Jiayi took the money, turned around and walked out.

There was ecstasy in the man's eyes, he wanted to have a long talk with himself!Being able to have a long talk with such a person is a blessing I have cultivated in several lifetimes.Hastily said:
"Let's go into the back room."

Taking Yang Chen and Xia Jie into the back room, the man started to get busy, put away the messy things on a dining table, moved a stool over, and respectfully said to Yang Chen:
"Master, please sit down."

Yang Chen was not polite either. After sitting down, he looked at the man and said, "My name is Yang Chen, this is Xia Jie, and the girl who went out just now is called Liang Jiayi. What's your name?"

"My name is Tie Zhan!" Having said that, he revealed a trace of shyness on his face: "My parents originally wanted me to be a warrior with strong fighting power, but I...in the end I just became a blacksmith. Master Yang, you Wait, I'll make you some tea."

Tie Zhan went to boil the water again, and when he finished making the tea, Liang Jiayi had already opened the door and walked in, saying:

"Chenchen, they said that the food will be delivered within half an hour."

"Okay, Jiayi, come and sit down!"

When Liang Jiayi sat down, Yang Chen looked at Tie Zhan and said, "Tell me about it."

"Okay!" Tie Zhan first recalled, and then said: "Now the world basically divides cold weapons into five levels. Ordinary weapons, high-quality weapons, famous weapons, treasure weapons and divine weapons.

Each grade is divided into upper, middle and lower grades. "

"What's the price?" Yang Chen asked.

"Low-grade ordinary weapons are actually equivalent to hoes, shovels, kitchen knives, etc. It's not that they can't kill wild animals, but they are more difficult and they are destroyed quickly. So these weapons are only tens to hundreds of yuan. It depends on the size. A low-grade ordinary dagger and a low-grade ordinary spear must have different prices, because they consume different steel materials.

Medium-grade ordinary weapons should be much stronger, not only tougher, sharper, but also more durable.The weapons I am building now are all mid-grade.The price of medium-grade ordinary weapons is more expensive, between 100 yuan and 1000 yuan.Smaller weapons are cheaper, larger ones are more expensive.

In fact, even if you sell a weapon worth 1000 yuan, you won't be able to make much money because it consumes a lot of steel.However, technology products are different. They are all produced on an assembly line, and the cost is much lower, several times more than ours.

Top-grade ordinary weapons have been improved in terms of toughness, sharpness and durability.The price is between 1 yuan and [-] yuan.As far as I know, there are only a few blacksmiths in Beijing and Shanghai who can make high-grade ordinary weapons. "

Speaking of this, Tie Zhan's face was full of disappointment.Sighing, he continued:

"As for high-quality weapons, I haven't heard of a blacksmith in the world who can make them. The high-quality weapons used by warriors are all technological products.

Low-grade high-quality weapons, the price is about 20 to 50.Mid-grade high-quality weapons, about [-] to [-].The saber owned by these Xia brothers just now is a middle-grade high-quality weapon.Top-grade high-quality weapons are between [-] and [-].

名器的价格就贵了，下品名器的价格大约在50万到500万之间。中品名器的价格大约在300万到1000万之间。上品名器的价格大约在800万道5000万之间。

Then there are treasures, the price of low-grade treasures is about 5000 million to 8000 million, and the price of middle-grade treasures is about [-] million to [-] million.Top-grade treasures are between [-] million and [-] million.

The price of low-grade artifacts is between [-] million and [-] billion, the price of mid-grade artifacts is between [-] billion and [-] billion, and the price of high-grade artifacts is between [-] billion and [-] billion. "

"hiss……"

Yang Chen couldn't help but gasped. In his previous life, he really didn't pay attention to the price in this aspect. He is not even a warrior, so why pay attention to those?
Never thought that weapons would be so expensive!
His eyes lit up, and thoughts burst out in his mind.

"If my idea is feasible, I will not only earn countless money, but also become the founder of the blacksmith industry."

Seeing Yang Chen thinking there, Tie Zhan showed hesitation in his eyes, and finally became firm.Standing up, with a plop, he knelt down in front of Yang Chen.

Yang Chen was startled and said, "What are you doing?"
