He was born as a blacksmith, but he dominated the world

Chapter 213: Rich and willful

"Okay, okay! Two pieces are fine!" Cai Yanting smiled happily.

If there are only two pieces, one for the lieutenant general and one for myself, that would be just right.

"By the way, is there any news about Brother Fang and the others recently?" Jiang Lin asked.

Cai Yanting said: "Yesterday, the Ministry of War sent a message that they had just wiped out a Xuanhua Dao mountain gate in the prefecture, and were preparing to gather support and besiege those tough nuts to crack."

"Weren't you injured before?"

"There are always soldiers on the border who are not injured. We are used to it." Cai Yanting said calmly.

Death is a common thing, and getting injured is nothing. As long as you still have the strength to swing the knife, you have to go!

Jiang Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "If we can get in touch with Brother Fang, we should remind him to be cautious when fighting together with the government troops."

Cai Yanting was stunned. What did this mean? It sounded as if the government troops would stab her in the back.

He quickly reacted and asked, "Did Yu Shuai tell you something?"

Jiang Lin was not sure whether he could tell anyone about the "cutting down of the feudal lords", so he could only say, "I didn't say anything. Anyway, it's always better to be cautious."

Cai Yanting hummed, and did not continue to ask, saying: "Okay, I will write him a letter later and send someone to deliver it."

After that, the two of them chatted casually for a few words, and Cai Yanting said hello to Old Man Wei before sending his men away.

Jiang Lin was looking at the boxes of silver. Many blacksmiths and apprentices from the Southern Blacksmith Camp came out to see the novelty.

It was the first time for them to see so much silver. Their eyes were filled with envy and a hint of anticipation.

Jiang Lin saw this, so he called a few people and said, "Take 1,000 taels of silver and go to the city to buy some wine and food."

The apprentices cheered immediately. The blacksmiths had salaries and could go out to find something to eat when they were hungry.

They didn't have this treatment. Only when Jiang Lin invited everyone to dinner, regardless of status, everyone could eat to their heart's content.

Jiang Lin didn't care about the expense of this little bit of silver. It was still easy for him to make money now. He could earn thousands of taels by just making a weapon.

After leading his men to carry the 300 top-grade weapons into his own blacksmith shop, Jiang Lin went to find Yuan Bingqi again.

"Master Yuan, I want to use this one million taels to buy some materials. It would be best if I could buy the largest quantity at the same price, which means a higher cost-performance ratio." Jiang Lin said.

"The largest quantity?" Yuan Bingqi said, "The only one is black crystal iron, which is of high quality and not expensive."

"You can use half to buy black crystal iron and the remaining half to buy other things." Jiang Lin said.

The grade of black crystal iron can only be said to be higher than pig iron, but it is not top-notch among many materials.

Of course, Jiang Lin knew that even if he had more money, he couldn't buy any good materials.

He had thought it through clearly. If he couldn't buy it, he might as well not buy it. After all, he couldn't make a higher-grade weapon after buying it.

Use all the silver to buy common materials, and then use them to feed the Hengyu Furnace.

As long as this furnace is constantly upgraded, it won’t be a loss.

After many days of "feeding" and the natural smelting of fire on weekdays, one of the branches of the magical treasure tree in the Hengyu Furnace has lit up by about half.

After spending one million taels, it should be time to upgrade, right?

Yuan Bingqi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take someone to buy it."

"That silver..."

"Put the silver here first. When they deliver the things, you can take it away yourself to avoid any trouble." Yuan Bingqi said.

Carrying several large boxes of silver to Kyoto City like this does seem a bit ostentatious.

Jiang Lin hummed and said no more.

Afterwards, Yuan Bingqi took two people away.

Jiang Lin returned to his blacksmith shop and took up the top-grade weapons for inspection. [A long sword of average quality, with 78 defects in total]

[A long sword of average quality, with 54 defects]

[A long sword of average quality, with 69 defects]

……

Although these weapons are said to be of top grade, they actually still have quite a few defects. What surprised Jiang Lin was that their materials were not pure pig iron, but were basically mixed with high-grade materials such as black crystal iron or the remains of monsters.

Jiang Lin couldn't help but have an idea. Since they were all just ordinary upper-grade ones, why not feed them all to the Hengyu furnace and then use the pig iron to forge 300 weapons again?

If we just do this, will it cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers on the border?
Although he felt that the weapons he made himself would be of better quality than those in front of him, Jiang Lin still went to the Nanling camp to find Liao Mingxu.

When he heard that he wanted to exchange 300 weapons he had made himself for the ones sent by the Li family in Qingzhou, Liao Mingxu agreed without hesitation.

It was not only because he had confidence in Jiang Lin, but also because Cai Yanting said after he came back that among the 300 weapons, there might be two to three precious weapons, and then all of them would be given to the Nanling camp.

Putting aside other things, just for these precious weapons, there was no way Liao Mingxu would refuse.

"Just bring me two of the precious weapons. Even if you say you want to feed the other 298 to the dogs, I will help you deal with it!" Liao Mingxu said.

Jiang Lin looked strange when he heard this, thinking that although he was not feeding the dog, it was essentially the same.

After getting Liao Mingxu's permission, Jiang Lin happily returned to the blacksmith shop. Without any other thoughts, he directly started the furnace and lit the fire, then stuffed the weapons in one by one.

The fire in the furnace rises to a temperature of nearly three thousand degrees, and it can melt whatever material you are made of.

With a thought, the melted material was quickly melted into the Hengyu Furnace.

The branches on the bottom layer of the magical tree on the furnace were lighting up more areas at an extremely fast speed.

From one-half, to three-quarters, to four-fifths, and finally the entire branch was completely lit up.

Medium-grade precious weapon!

The Hengyu Furnace made a buzzing sound and vibrated slightly, as if it was cheering for its own improvement.

In Jiang Lin's vision, the information about Hengyu Furnace also changed slightly.

[A furnace of decent quality, which can improve the quality of materials by 30%, and can melt everything to improve its own quality]

The improvement in material quality has increased by 15 percent.

It didn't look very eye-catching, but when he glanced at the at least two hundred weapons around him, Jiang Lin couldn't help but narrow his eyes and smile.

These weapons, plus the materials purchased with one million silver coins, can at least push Hengyu Furnace to a top-grade treasure weapon, right?

Maybe if you're lucky, you can get a low-grade spiritual weapon!

Thinking of this, Jiang Lin could no longer hold back and continued to increase the fire and put the remaining weapons in.

When Yuan Bingqi brought his men back, all 300 weapons had been consumed by the Hengyu furnace.

When Yuan Bingqi arrived at the blacksmith shop, he did not see the three hundred top-grade weapons, so he asked curiously, "Why does this shop suddenly feel empty?"

Jiang Lin smiled and asked, "How's the shopping going?"

"Someone has delivered it." Yuan Bingqi pointed outside.

Jiang Lin immediately walked out of the blacksmith shop to check what he had bought.

Yuan Bingqi subconsciously glanced at Hengyu Furnace and could not move his eyes away.

Staring at the two branches of the magical treasure tree on the furnace that had already been lit, Yuan Bingqi couldn't help but exclaimed: "How did it become a top-grade treasure weapon?"
