Chapter 246: Unexpected Changes, Two in One Two in one, 6,000 words in a big chapter When Chen Daolin first saw this first master craftsman in the empire, he was also very surprised.
This Master Kang looked thin and small, and he didn't have the momentum of a first-generation master all over his body.
What surprised Chen Daolin the most was that he saw that the old man's right hand actually had only three fingers left The thumb and little finger of his right hand were severed from the roots Such an empire's first swordsmith is actually a person with a handicapped palm And the first craftsman in this empire almost dragged Chen Daolin into his house along the way.
Walking into the door, past the shop and into the backyard, Chen Daolin saw more than a dozen hardcover young men in the backyard workshop, some of them were shirtless, carrying hammers and knives and other tools in their hands, and some were busy by the stove.
Master Kang dragged Chen Daolin all the way into a room, and before Chen Daolin sat down, he threw a short sword directly in front of Chen Daolin, with a fanatical look on his face: "Say this sword quickly, how is this material refined?"
The thing that Chen Daolin used to impress this Master Kang was not unusual, it was the last short sword that he had left in his hand that was brought in from the real world.
This sword is made with modern craftsmanship, not to mention.
The main thing is the material The steel quality produced by the modern steelmaking method is naturally much stronger than that of the cold weapon era.
Of course, if you want to make a blowing converter in the world of cold weapons in the Roland Empire and then copy the modern steelmaking process, Chen Daolin naturally has no ability to do this kind of thing.
Not to mention blowing the converter, he couldn't even make an open-hearth However, he has another killer weapon to deal with this Master Kang.
After coming to the Roland Empire, Chen Daolin learned about it for a period of time, and learned from Angulo, the largest ordnance and weapons supplier in the empire.
Chen Daolin can probably judge that the steelmaking technology of the entire Roland Empire is probably still at the level of using the steel frying method.
The so-called best weapons of this era are to use the steel frying method to make steel, and then to fold and forge the way to make the so-called "100 steel", this method is costly, and can not be used in the army's large-scale equipment, and the process of 100 steel is not stable, and the material may not be very ideal.
The bait that Chen Daolin took out to catch Master Kang was "This is something I gave you."
Chen Daolin smiled and took out a thin stack of pamphlets from his arms, which he had written in Roland script in the Academy of Magic since he was a child, and the blessings of film and television works, Chen Daolin's preparations were also varied.
Especially when he brought a few weapons made by modern technology, Chen Daolin had an idea, and he also spent some time to understand some knowledge of steelmaking metallurgical technology.
Coming to an era of cold weapons, these preparations will definitely come in handy in the future.
Master Kang opened the booklet and saw a title on it: Steel-filled method.
Master Kang only glanced at it, and immediately showed a solemn expression on his face, and read it down in one breath, but he didn't have time to pay attention to Chen Daolin, as if he had forgotten everything around him, and only hung Chen Daolin there.
Chen Daolin was not surprised at all, and let the old man be there in a daze with his booklet, but he took a look in the room.
This house is probably Master Kang's own residence.
The furnishings in the room are very ordinary, there is no luxury in the slightest, and it even looks very cold and shabby.
There is a cold and hard metallic feeling everywhere.
There were several strong bows hanging on the walls, as well as some knives, axes, shields.
There are also several long and short swords of different shapes on the shelves in the corner.
However, what interested Chen Daolin the most was a bookshelf in the room, and he walked over and saw a roll of drawings spread out at a glance.
This drawing is very exquisite, with sharp weapons and swords, various colors of armor, light armor and heavy armor, and even some battering rams and other war weapons.
The various drawings add up, which is as thick as a book, and it seems that they are all drawn by this Master Kang himself, and when he holds it in his hand, there is a strong smell of ink wafting from the album.
Chen Daolin roughly flipped through a few pages, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw something familiar on a drawing.
"Hey, the moon is missing" Chen Daolin smiled.
This drawing completely replicates the shape of the Missing Moon Five Light Armor.
However, after all, Master Kang has not really studied the real thing, he can only copy this legendary artifact from the appearance from various patterns that have been handed down, but the appearance is exactly the same.
But the most difficult part of replicating such a set of armor is not the appearance, but many other aspects.
For example, the thickness of the cuirass and some special places, the weight of the parts, the tightness of the joints.
On top of that, the True Missing Moon Five Light Armor is a genuine artifact with magical abilities.
And Master Kang is a pure expert in cold weapons and weapons, if he simply copies a set of armor without the moon and five lights, it is not realistic, because magic equipment must be specially designed in some places, and some designs will weaken the defense of the armor if it is purely based on the standards of cold weapons, but if it is added with magic effects, it will be very different.
Obviously, this Master Kang has put a lot of thought into the Missing Moon Five Light Armor, and has put a lot of thought into many details, such as the thickness of the breastplate, and some of the patterns on the original version may be magic patterns, but since the copy version does not have a magic caste, then the retention of these patterns needs to make some changes, otherwise, the pattern is hollowed out too much, which will make the armor become fragile.
There are also those inverted blades on the shoulder and arm guards, the original armor is said to be Du Wei has a special set of martial arts to match this set of armor, if you can copy the version, keep these inverted blades, if there is no corresponding martial arts to match, it will make the person wearing the armor at a loss, and these inverted blades will affect their own actions.
Chen Daolin saw that under the drawings, Master Kang also left a lot of notes One old and one young are in this room, you look at yours, I look at mine, ignore each other.
After a long time, Hu Ke, who was waiting outside the door, became more and more anxious, and couldn't help but push the door and walked in, and when he entered the door, he saw Chen Daolin staring at a pile of drawings in a daze, and couldn't help but whisper: "Sir" "Hmm" Chen Daolin raised his head and put down the drawings.
"It's not too early."
Hook coughed.
"Oh, good."
Chen Daolin reluctantly glanced at these drawings, and then walked in front of Master Kang.
At this moment, the old man had come back to his senses, but his brows were furrowed, and he picked up the sword that Chen Daolin gave him again, and was in a daze.

"You said that this steel filling method can really make such steel" Master Kang suddenly asked.
"I don't know."
Chen Daolin said with a smile: "But I can guarantee that the steel produced by this method should be better than the current steel, and the output will be more." ” Chen Daolin smiled easily.
He was not unreserved, the few pages of the booklet he gave to Master Kang were not the entire content of the steel filling method, but only deliberately handed over the catalog and a little bit of content to Master Kang.
I believe that with the level of this swordsmith, he should be a person who knows the goods.
And then, if this old man wants to get all the steel filling methods, he has to negotiate terms with himself.
"What you said above, the trapping method, the covering method, and the pouring method, are all true."
"Of course it's true."
Chen Daolin smiled.
"There is also the idea of clamping steel and Baotou steel, which also makes me very interested."
"The statement of the stove, single chamber, double chamber, tandem" "And this" The old man seemed to be impatient, and asked many things in the booklet he had seen that were not clearly described.
But he said for a long time, but Chen Daolin just stood in front of him and smiled silently.
Master Kang gradually calmed down, and looking at Chen Daolin's appearance, he immediately understood what the other party meant.
"Well, you say, what the hell do you want."
Master Kang sighed.
"I just said outside the door that I want to buy your shop."
Chen Daolin smiled.
At this time, Master Kang showed a strange smile on his face: "My shop is not worth a few dollars.
As you should be aware, it's nothing more than an empty house and a second-rate workshop. ” "Of course I know that the house and the land are not worth much.
The real wealth of this shop is your Master Kang himself.
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bothered to take a look at this shop, even if it was given to me.
Chen Daolin smiled faintly.
"So you mean, you want to recruit me to work for you," Master Kang smiled.
At this moment, he seemed to show the city of several generations of grandmasters, and glanced at Chen Daolin: "You have a big appetite.
You know, over the years, I don't know how many people have walked through this door and offered all kinds of conditions to woo me?
Even the Tulip family has approached me at least three times, and each time the price is "" "I can't afford to pay them."
Chen Daolin interrupted Master Kang's words, and said with an honest smile: "The Tulip family is rich in the world, and I can't do the price they offer."
However, I believe that Your Excellency should not be a person who is short of money, otherwise, you would have followed the Tulip family and would not have stayed on this gold street. ” Master Kang was silent.
"There's not much I can give you, the most important thing is in your hands."
Chen Daolin's tone was full of confidence.
Master Kang nodded: "You can see it very accurately, young man, the conditions you offered are exactly what I want." ” After a pause, he frowned and looked at Chen Daolin: "Then what do you need me to do for you?"
The old man's eyes were very puzzled, he glanced at the short sword that Chen Daolin brought from the real world on the table: "You already have such a sharp weapon, and you also have the steelmaking method written in this booklet, what use do you need my old man to know, the most important thing is that as long as you can make good steel, you don't need my old man at all if you can make good steel, as long as you can make such good steel, just find a third-rate swordsmith, and you can make all the equipment you want." ” "Don't worry, I naturally won't trade at a loss."
Chen Daolin smiled.
Then, he looked at Master Kang and solemnly put forward his conditions: "I bought your weapon shop, and your Kang family's weapon shop was merged into my Wushuang Fang, and it never existed again.
And you, Master Kang himself, will work for me for five years in the Wushuang Workshop in exchange for this, and I will hand over the steel filling method written in the booklet in your hand "Needless to say."
Master Kang smiled bitterly: "I just said that as long as you give me this steelmaking method, let alone ask for my shop, I can give you this life."
The old man's expression suddenly moved, staring at Chen Daolin's eyes: "You are not afraid, after my old man learned your steelmaking technique, he patted his ass and left, and if your steelmaking technique is true, then it is enough to enrich the wealth of all generations, as soon as this steelmaking technique comes out, the other blacksmith shops and weapons chambers of commerce in the empire will be closed, unless they all come to learn your steel-filling method, you are not afraid, my old man will take your steel-filling method to other houses, and your skills will be leaked when the time comes."
"Hahahahahaha Chen Daolin raised his head and laughed, he laughed for a while, and then looked at Master Kang: "Do you think I came up with this steel-filling method to make you make good steel, create a batch of peerless good swords, and then buy 100,200,000 gold coins each, and make a lot of money in the hands of the royal family and nobles, and at the same time stick to the secret method of steelmaking and refuse to pass it on, and count gold coins at home every day behind closed doors."
Speaking of this, Chen Daolin's face changed, and he shouted proudly: "This method of filling steel, I don't have the meaning of self-cherishing at all, this wonderful method is used to send a person and a family, it is simply a wonderful method of destroying heavenly things, it is a powerful weapon that can improve the national strength of a country by a large margin, I have no intention of keeping it secret at all, I only give it to you to study, once you get it, I will announce it to the public."
"You" Master Kang's eyes flashed, and his face was full of enthusiasm and excitement: "Do you want to make the hundreds of thousands of troops of my Roland Empire, everyone can use such a sharp weapon?"
"Wrong" Chen Daolin laughed: "Just popularizing the army, what kind of ability is what I want, so that the kitchen knives used in the homes of tens of millions of people in the Roland Empire are all of this kind of good steel."
Poof The old man's legs were weak, and he sat directly on the chair, staring at Chen Daolin dumbfounded, unable to say a word for a long time.
Of course, Chen Daolin was talking big to fool this old man.
Darling Brother naturally doesn't have such a great heart and ambition, and the Roland Empire lives or dies, and it's none of his business Lao Tzu is a citizen of the Celestial Empire This kind of pride and grandeur is just fooling a technical maniac like Master Kang, so that he is desperate to serve himself.
As for whether Master Kang learned the steel filling method and jumped ship Hmph Chen Daolin believes that a steel-filled method is enough for this old man to digest for two or three years And after that, do you want to learn the open-hearth steelmaking method, do you want to know the bottom blowing method, the top blowing method?

It really didn't work, so Lao Tzu went to the real world to buy a textbook on "modern steelmaking technology", translated it into Roland, and read a chapter to the old man every day Just let him chase the update, and directly call him a hardcore brain fan of his brother I want to run Get on my thief ship, ah, go Wushuangfang bought Master Kang's shop, and at the same time, the news that Master Kang took his six disciples and more than 20 apprentices to work for Wushuangfang immediately spread With Master Kang's reputation for forging swords in the Empire, as well as his reputation as the first craftsman in the Empire.
This incident immediately attracted widespread attention.
The name Wushuangfang has also entered the people's sight along with this incident.
Especially in the eyes of those aristocratic warriors who like to collect weapons, they have already developed a strong interest in this Wushuang Workshop, which has not yet officially opened and has not launched any products.
Just imagine, even the first swordsmith of the empire is committed to it, and what this Wushuang Fang will launch in the future must be extraordinary The Pompeii Chamber of Commerce did not deliberately keep it secret, and those who are interested will know as long as they inquire a little that the backstage boss of this "Wushuang Fang" is the Pompeii Chamber of Commerce on one side, and the other side is the young magician who publicly challenged Anthony a few years ago: Darling Chen.
Soon, the name Darling Chan once again aroused a lot of attention and interest.
His title, his identity, his origins, his talent Professors of the Academy of Magic, Court Mages, Court Knights, Young Magicians and many more.
At this time, two more shocking pieces of news broke out First, this Darling Chen is said to be an alchemist, which is a terrible alchemist, even in the wizard world, he is a rare talent And the second thing broke out, which made the situation of one party a little embarrassing This young genius magician who is in the limelight has not yet obtained the official mid-level mage qualification issued by the Magic Guild It is said that this Master Darling Chen submitted an application for a magic level assessment in the Magic Guild a few months ago, but the Magic Guild did not reply for a long time, nor did it arrange his magic level assessment, so the matter was forcibly delayed According to the "insider", this incident is said to be related to the identity of Darling Chen's professor at the Academy of Magic.
In addition, it is said that the Magical Society also intends to give Darling Chan the title of full member in the near future.
And the Magic Guild, which has always been at odds with the Magic Academy Magic Society, deliberately delayed Chen Daolin, the big celebrity of these two organizations, in his magician level assessment.
This incident broke out, and it immediately caused a lot of criticism A dignified court mage and a dignified professor of a magic academy can't even qualify for the level of the magic guild A master-level genius in Potions who can read and create three new potion recipes has been stuck by the Magic Guild in the magic level assessment This is simply the Magic Guild deliberately stumbling in order to fight against the Academy of Magic and the Magic Society At the expense of the future of a young magician who has contributed greatly to the empire and made great achievements, to suppress his own rivals, the Magic Guild has been shamed by many people Even many magicians talked about it in private, and they sympathized with Chen Daolin.
No one would think that Chen Daolin's strength was insufficient, how could a magician who had achieved so many achievements and titles fail to pass the assessment of the Magic Guild's deliberate suppression and delay, which was a kind of decaying and outdated ancient organization, the persecution of a newly promoted young genius magician For a time, there were many criticisms and accusations against the Magic Guild.
Especially in terms of the Magic Academy and the Magic Guild, they all released such a voice: If the Magic Guild is too busy to arrange the level assessment of magicians, then the academy and the society are willing to share this "heavy responsibility" for the Magic Guild.
And for a while, there were even more voices proposing: This kind of thing has been exclusively held by the Magic Guild for thousands of years, and this power has never been released, in fact, it has become the exclusive patent of the Magic Guild.
Such an exclusive monopoly is no longer applicable to the current prosperity of magical civilization.
In order to make the empire's magical civilization better developed, the Magic Guild should break the outdated rules and give up the exclusive power of "magic level assessment".
The qualification of a mage should no longer be monopolized by a single organization Such a topic is naturally more eye-catching than Chen Daolin's personal identity as a magician For a while, there was a lot of discussion, and the Magic Academy and the Magic Society attacked at the same time, which greatly embarrassed the Magic Guild.
And because of the issue of the ownership of power in the "Magician Level Qualification Assessment", it seems that the confrontation between the three major magic organizations has been faintly set off again And at this time, the Magic Guild seemed to have finally made a compromise under the pressure of public opinion.
"Your Excellency Darling Chen, I would like to reply to your application for the magic level assessment as follows: Your magic level assessment is scheduled for January 10, please be sure to come to the Magic Guild headquarters in person on the morning of January 10."
When Chen Daolin received this notice, he couldn't stop sneering.
In fact, in the past few days, Chen Daolin is very clear about the criticism that his magic assessment has been delayed, and the magic academy has played a role in fueling it.
Even Dean Carmen had spoken to him personally about it.
The beautiful dean had already told Chen Daolin that even if the Magic Guild finally stumbled on him, there was no need to worry, the Academy of Magic would definitely stand behind Chen Daolin and support him.
"If those bastards dare not give you the qualification of a magician, I will call on the Academy of Magic to pass a resolution, from now on, the graduates of the Academy of Magic will no longer participate in the magic level assessment of the Magic Guild, and the Academy will no longer recognize the qualification of any magician of the Magic Guild."
Chen Daolin understood that he was used as a gun this time.
