(It's still not powerful!) Too few votes! )

After resting in the mansion for a few days, Wei Wuji was a little idle, so he left the mansion with a dozen guards and went to wander the streets outside.

Jingbei, as a county seat, is the most prosperous place in Yanshan, but compared to other counties that Wei Wuji has visited, it is more than a step behind.

However, although this place is not so prosperous, it has a unique style of the Northland, and it looks unique.

In fact, the northern land has not been so quiet in the past two months, although the Huns have not yet moved, but those vassal tribes under their command have begun to harass the Great Wall.

Moreover, the Xiongnu headquarters has not been dispatched in the past two years, which means that the further back it goes, the more dangerous the northern land may be.

It is also a loss that there are not many Wei activities outside the Great Wall now, so the loss of Wei is not big at present.

But the more this is the case, the more the Hu people's appetite cannot be satisfied, then their future counterattack will be more serious.

Lingbei camp up and down, the pressure is actually very great now. The same was true for Wei Wuji, the Huns were the first hurdle for him to ascend to the throne.

Marquis Wei said that only after defeating the Xiongnu could he be allowed to return to Wu'an......

Moreover, looking at the entire Wei State, it is really walking on thin ice now, and once any place is broken through, it will lead to catastrophic consequences.

In the troubled times of the Warring States, there was no time when he could feel at ease, and when he thought of this, Wei Wuji felt a sense of urgency in his heart.

The army under his command must form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, so that it can swim against the current in the troubled times and establish meritorious achievements.

Originally, he came out to relax, but Wei Wuji still embarked on the old path of anxiety.

Thinking of the strength of the cavalry, Wei Wuji suddenly remembered that the two craftsmen he brought from Wu'an, they were Wei Wuji's hope for victory.

So, he asked Chen Sheng on the side: "Where are the two craftsmen now placed?" ”

Because this was arranged by Chen Sheng, Wei Wuji had to ask him.

"Back to Gongzi, they were all arranged by their subordinates to a hidden place in Xicheng!" Chen Sheng replied on the side.

Wei Wuji was satisfied, although the blacksmith was nothing, it was better to keep this kind of thing hidden.

"Then, let's go and have a look......," Wei Wuji said in a deep voice, in fact, he and the two craftsmen had not met.

So the group rushed to Xicheng, and on the way, Wei Wuji also learned that the surname of the two families was Yu and the surname was Xu.

I have to say that Chen Sheng is still very reliable, even if someone leads him, when Wei Wuji rushed to these two deep alleys, he couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart.

Since they had already seen Chen Sheng before, when they saw him coming, the two craftsmen immediately came out to greet him with their disciples.

"I've seen Master Chen!" The first two said respectfully, but they ignored Wei Wuji, who was following behind.

And the reason why they are so respectful is because Chen Sheng is the owner who supports them, so that they can do what they want without worry.

It can be said that they are equivalent to scientists with ideals, and Wei Wuji is the financier behind the scenes who supports their research.

Chen Sheng nodded, and didn't explain much, after all, his son-in-law didn't want to reveal his identity, although the two people in front of him might have speculation.

At this time, I only heard Chen Sheng ask: "Is there any progress in iron manufacturing?" ”

Iron is relatively easy to refine, but turning it into a sharp weapon is a different concept.

When asked about this, one of the two craftsmen stood up and said, "Lord Hui, but now there is progress, and the newly made weapons are much tougher than the previous batch!" ”

Hearing this, Wei Wuji's eyes lit up, the batch of weapons made before was actually a line stronger than the bronze sword, and now it is stronger than the original, so can it be mass-produced?

"Quickly take it out and ......give it a try," Wei Wuji interjected.

The two craftsmen looked at Chen Sheng, obviously asking for instructions...... Chen Sheng nodded slightly.

Then, the two craftsmen lined up the apprentices behind them and walked to the depths of the shop.

Soon, they took out two shiny ...... Ironware. At Wei Wuji's previous request, these iron tools were all made into knives.

But judging from the appearance alone, it is impossible to see which is better or worse than the previous knife, and it just so happens that Zheng Dali did not come out this time.

Wei Wuji didn't panic, only to see him stroll to the side of one of the guards, and then draw his sword.

Holding this bronze sword, Wei Wuji walked up to Chen Sheng's side, and then said to him: "You go and get that knife, let's try it, this iron weapon is a few pounds and two!" ”

Chen Sheng nodded yes, and then came to the craftsman and took the ...... from his hand Knife.

In fact, the real process is not complicated, they only need to use a simple chopping to quickly see the power of this new knife.

Not surprisingly, the bronze sword in Wei Wuji's hand could not be used against this iron weapon at all, and soon there was a gap, and even a tendency to break.

The two of them quickly closed their momentum, and then listened to Wei Wuji say: "Yes, the iron tools produced this time are indeed better than last time!" ”

After turning to look at these craftsmen, Wei Wuji said, "You have put your heart into it!" ”

The two craftsmen bent down again and again, although they didn't know the identity of the young man in front of them, but they also knew that it was definitely not easy to guess.

At this time, I saw one of the craftsmen answering: "This is also thanks to the blowing method that Master Chen thought of, so that the furnace can condense the iron even more, otherwise these knives would not be able to be made!" ”

This craftsman originally intended to sell Chen Sheng a favor, but Chen Sheng was a little embarrassed to hear this, because the bellows method was not something he came up with at all.

Wei Wuji smiled, and then said, "I just don't know, can you still improve the quality of iron tools a little more?" ”

I didn't dare to answer this indiscriminately, and after the two of them pondered for a while, they said: "If it's in a short time, I'm afraid it's difficult!" ”

This is very well-founded, because since the last breakthrough, there has been no progress for the rest of the month, which makes it impossible for the two to make guarantees.

Wei Wuji naturally knew in his heart that in the era in which he had lived, this kind of leap would also take an extremely long time.

In fact, thanks to his own appearance, the pace of the times has been accelerated a lot.

In fact, after this evaluation, the cast iron is now ready for actual combat. Compared with copper swords, it is not only much lighter, but also much better in hardness and toughness.

"How many iron tools can you and your disciples forge every day now?" Wei Wuji asked.

After thinking about it, the two said, "Now if you cast it with all your might, twenty handles a day is still feasible...... If you cast a few blast furnaces, you can cast more! ”

"Okay, then you can pack your things and go to another place in three days!" Wei Wuji said slowly.

Since it is no longer possible to improve, then he plans to cast weapons on a large scale, and it is obviously unrealistic to cast weapons on a large scale in Jingbei City.

The two craftsmen and disciples looked at each other before bowing down and saying, "Obey!" ”

Then, Wei Wuji took the guards and left this extremely remote shop.

After Wei Wuji and the others left, someone among the disciples behind the craftsman asked, "Master, who was that person just now?" It seems that even Lord Chen is afraid of him! ”

The two old blacksmiths immediately glanced at each other, and they both had an answer in their hearts, because they knew that they had followed the fifth prince to Yanshan.

"What's the matter, don't hurry up and pack your things!" The old blacksmith cursed angrily.

After all, it was many years of accumulation, so those disciples and apprentices rushed back one by one.

"Lao Yu, this son...... With such a dedication to iron, do you think it's time for us to transit? One of the craftsmen said in a deep voice.

The latter was silent, but apparently agreed.
