Chapter 184 Participating in the Knife Forging Competition

However, my sword forging skills are not bad. When the time comes, I can directly forge a blood-drinking sword like that used by Nie Feng on TV. I can slash it out with a single blow, and it also comes with a 40-meter-long blue sword energy. How cool.

If you want to forge a knife, you must buy the equipment for knife forging. Wang Liang searched online for the equipment used in the knife forging competition, pulled out a list, and sent it to Zhang Dong.

"You help me buy these equipment, and then ask someone to come over and install it. Install it on the roof of the building, and then ask someone to set up a workshop."

Zhang Dong looked at the list on his phone, including electric stoves, power hammers, stamping machines, belt machines, anvils, and hammers. He muttered to himself, "What are we going to do again?" and was about to send a message to ask,

Wang Liang sent another message, "Hurry up and buy it, I want to forge a blood-drinking sword."

"Why do you think of forging knives again instead of doing music?"

"This is called comprehensive development. Hurry up and stop talking nonsense."

After reading this message, Zhang Dong shook his head helplessly. Wang Liang has gone completely crazy. After a while, he will probably imitate others and go to the wilderness to survive.

With the blessing of Chao's ability, the knife forging studio was set up overnight. Early the next morning, Wang Liang began to forge the first knife in his life. He first put the steel pieces he bought into the electric furnace to heat them, and then waited for them to burn.

It is bright red, use pliers to clamp it out, place it on the power hammer, and start forging it into shape.

As a result, I didn't operate the power hammer well and used too much force. I hammered the steel piece into an S shape, threw it into the sink, took out the next piece of steel, and started heating it. I took out my mobile phone, searched for knife forging tutorials, and followed the tutorial to learn how to forge knives.

.

The progress of the second knife is very obvious. At least it has a hammer shape. After quenching, the blade is a little bent. I tried to break it, and there was a "click" and the knife broke.

The third knife did not use a power hammer, but directly hammered manually. The result was surprisingly good. Not only did the knife shape come out with the hammer, but after quenching, the blade has not bent yet and is very straight. I put on canvas gloves and a canvas apron and put on the knife.

Place it on the belt sander and start sanding.

With a "squeak" sound, sparks flew everywhere in an instant.

Wang Liang subconsciously hid back and watched the knife forging competition. Some people did not wear any protective equipment and went to sharpen their knives with bare hands. They were not afraid of accidentally grinding their hands, and then sparks splashed on their skin.

Isn't it hot?

Maybe those foreign blacksmiths have rough skin and thick flesh, high defense, and are not afraid of being burned.

After the knife was polished and polished, the progress bar had not yet increased. Wang Liang learned to drill holes for the knife root and install a wooden handle. The progress bar finally changed and increased to [Forged Knife: 1/10000], which is

He said that if he forges another nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine swords, he will be fully trained.

Then it shouldn’t be directly linked to cirrhosis of the liver?

Forging a knife until my hand breaks!

No matter what, for the blood-drinking knife in my heart, give me "liver!".

Suddenly, Wang Liangyou thought of another thing. Will this knife forging skill increase the progress bar when forging swords, axes, and other cold weapons? Throw the forged knife into the wooden frame on the ground.

Pick up a piece of steel bar, put it in the electric furnace, heat it, and when it is red, use pliers to take it out, put it on the anvil, pick up the hammer, and start hammering.

This time Wang Liang hammered a short sword.

After several sword forging exercises, I am now relatively proficient. After a while, I hammered out the sword shape, put it in the electric furnace to reheat, and then put it in oil to quench. When I took it out, it was very straight. Wang Liang found that he seemed to

Not suitable for use with power hammers.

Since I started hammering manually, the knives and daggers I hammered out have not had any problems.

It seems that when I reach the 10,000 progress bar, my right arm will also become a "Qilin Arm".

After sharpening the sword and assembling the hilt, in less than half an hour, a dagger was forged, but the progress bar did not increase. It was still [Forged Sword: 1/10000]. It seems that the sword must be forged in order to increase.

Go ahead and start forging the knife.

Longyuan City is a fifth-tier small city located in the south. Its environment is similar to that of other small southern cities. It is home to small bridges and flowing water. It is famous for its sword making. The locally produced Longquan sword is widely praised by cold weapon enthusiasts.

"Ding-ding-dong, ding-ding-dong"

The rhythmic sound of metal clashing came from a shop. Some farm tools and kitchen knives were placed at the door of the shop. There was no sign on the door, but the sound was the signboard. This was a blacksmith shop.

It is not easy to find a blacksmith shop nowadays. Even in Longyuan City, which is famous for sword making, blacksmith shops are very rare. Most Longquan swords are produced in factories, and the cost is low, so the selling price is naturally low.

Except for a few sword enthusiasts who insist on buying handmade Longquan swords, others just want to be fresh and naturally choose cheaper "factory goods". After all, a handmade Longquan sword costs at least a thousand.

This has led to the rapid decline of traditional blacksmith shops. It is estimated that in a few years, there will be no blacksmith shops in Yongyuan City.

There is also a proverb in the Dragon Kingdom that there are three hardships in the world: riding a boat, blacksmithing, and grinding tofu. If you can't make money and it's hard work, who will do it?

Someone actually did it.

Su Anran, whose name is very delicate, looks like a weak scholar. In fact, he is a weak scholar, but he loves "forging iron". After reading Ou Yezi's deeds when he was a child, he admired Ou Yezi so much that he also read some martial arts novels and online novels, secretly

I swear that when I grow up, I will build the famous sword inside.

A few months ago, after I was laid off from my company, my childhood dream suddenly came to mind. I didn't look for a job, so I impulsively came to Longyuan City, became an apprentice, and started learning to forge the Longquan Sword.

His previous job was to write programs, which is what people call programmers. After sitting and working for many years, his body had long been exhausted. In the first few days when he started blacksmithing, he almost died from exhaustion.

It felt like my arms and waist were about to break.

Fortunately, with my strong will and the special "care" from my master, I managed to survive. After several months of training, I have developed a unicorn arm that can be used for an hour without stopping.

What I forged today is the Longquan Sword ordered by a fan.

It is required to be made by hand, and the sword must be engraved with dragon patterns.

The price of this sword was two thousand, and it was finally sold for one thousand eighty. The master was very happy. It had been a long time since he had received such a big order. He had nothing to do. He took a few videos of practicing blacksmithing and posted them online.

The number of views was quite high, so I posted it every day, hoping to make some extra money. Unexpectedly, a fan directly placed an order for him to hand-make a Longquan sword.

It seems that I will have to manage these short video accounts well in the future.

After finishing the basic sword embryo, the sturdy old man standing opposite Su Anran wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Drink some water, take a rest, and when you hand over this sword, the master will sell you meat."

“You can buy it now”

"It's different. It's not the money you get from selling the sword. The meat you buy doesn't taste good."

Su Anran wiped her sweat, handed the tea cup to the master, picked up Lei Bi herself, drank half the bottle in one breath, took out her mobile phone, opened Douyin, and was about to check the private messages in the background. Big data is very accurate.

recommended him the news about the knife forging competition.

After reading the news, his eyes gleamed with excitement and he said: "Master, if our blacksmith shop can win the first place in the knife forging competition, not only will we get a bonus of nearly 700,000 yuan, but we will also be able to receive endless orders.

”.

The old man scratched his head, put down the tea cup calmly, frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Look at who is participating. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we increase our chances of winning."

"Wait!"

Su Anran opened the browser and began to search for information about the knife forging competition online. After a while, her eyebrows wrinkled with Sichuan characters. She shook her head slightly and said, "This competition is indeed not easy. There are forging swordsmen from all over the world."

Sword master, Jameson of the Free Country Swordsmiths Association, famous forger master of the Plaster Country, Murakami Tanano, master blacksmith of the Rose Country Blacksmiths Association, Albi.

These players that can be found so far have all forged world-famous swords, and these famous swords are now collected in the World Cold Weapons Museum."

The wrinkles between the old man's eyebrows deepened. When it comes to forging knives and swords, the people of the Dragon Kingdom have thousands of years of history, and there are many famous swords and swords among them. How come even people from the Plaster Kingdom dare to say that they are masters of forging?

If you really step on the horse, you will rebel against Tiangang.

Their most famous Japanese sword originated from the Tang Dynasty Hengdao.

no!

Those foreigners must know who is the ancestor who forged knives and swords.

"How to sign up to participate?"

"Holy crap! Master, do you want to sign up for the competition?"

"No? You think I'm too old to be useful. I'm telling you, your master is only 69 this year, so he's still young!"

The master's surname was Xu and his first name was Gang. The name was just like the person he was named, very "hard". Su Anran muttered in his heart, "Sure enough," and said with a smile: "How can it not be possible! I was just a little surprised. I thought you would send me to participate."

”.

"You?" Xu Gang took a sip of tea and said nothing, but his meaning was obvious.

Su Anran was thick-skinned and didn't care. He smiled and said, "Master, my current skills are actually quite good."

Xu Gang still didn't speak and just kept drinking tea.

noon.

Wang Liang looked at the 25 short knives in the wooden basket, shook his sore arm, and said to himself with a grimace: "Damn it, when will this step horse be able to forge ten thousand knives?"

This whole morning, he felt like he was almost exhausted and couldn't even lift his arms.

The progress bar did not increase much, it only increased to a very pitiful [Forged Knife: 26/10000], and he discovered a very scary thing. The progress bar did not increase even if the knife was forged with a power hammer.

In other words, there were more than 9,000 remaining ones, and all of them had to be hammered out with his thin arm.

When I think of this, I feel "cute!" Because my head has become bigger and I have become a big-headed baby, so I am naturally cute.

I went downstairs and bought ten kilograms of lamb chops. I stewed a pot of braised lamb chops at noon, which gave my arms some nutrition. After dinner, while resting, I saw another piece of news about a knife forging competition.

Xu Gang from Longyuan City signed up to participate in the knife forging competition.

The information shows that this is a master blacksmith who can forge Longquan swords.

I subconsciously opened a comment area to see what netizens had to say.

The blue sea connects the sky: "Our Dragon Kingdom finally has a master, let those foreigners see what a real master is."

Xiao Kunkun's second brother: "You are sixty-nine years old, can you still hit the iron?".

A loyal fan of the knife forging competition: "Come on, just defeat Daliben!".
