Chapter 148 Casting* Strengthening Agent

Lu Chen's statement almost made the four guys spray out all the wine. Fortunately, the few of them had experienced great storms. After looking at each other, Farns spoke: "If you destroy a big family like Skinner, you can't just Hei Guang's money or steal their business. The previous one seems unlikely. They have the arms production of the Finesh Kingdom, and the Kingdom will not sit idly by. You came to find this short guy, obviously for the second one, but with him alone, no matter how bad the equipment is, you cannot mass-produce it. Are you planning to ask the entire dwarf through him?"

Lu Chen didn't care about Farns's key to the matter. A greedy old man like him who could get good things casually would understand that detailed things would be normal.

"Of course not. How could I attack the dwarfs before developing the maritime power?" No matter how shocked the four of them were when they heard his words, after looking around, Lu Chen took a scrapped Mo Zi casually and continued: "What I expect is this. As long as you can get a mold that can be used repeatedly, there is no need for a large number of blacksmiths to produce standard equipment, which can greatly save costs."

"This..." The four of them were a little stunned and had a lifelong deal with weapons and equipment. Three users and one dwarf who only pursued the best. No one had ever thought of such a thing.

After a while, Aubrig, a professional blacksmith, spoke first: "It is unlikely that you can use high-end materials to make molds for ordinary equipment, but that's too wasteful. And you need to have so many high-end materials, and then wear, it's really unpaid."

"Tsk, you think it's a magical tool. The little guy's method is completely feasible. It's just to build equipment for the army. The mold embryo made of high-quality materials can almost neglect the losses. However, this kind of material is difficult to find. Even if it's the most produced steel, it's hard to imagine that it can swallow the Skinner family's output." Farns retorted.

This speech made everyone silent. Everyone knew that methods were good. They could imagine how simple it would be to build ordinary equipment after such molds were made, but the cost could not be solved with high costs.

Looking at the scrapped mold embryo in his hand, Lu Chen suddenly thought of the cheap disposable items on the earth and asked tentatively: "Master Aub, how is this mold embryo price? What material is it made of? It is inconvenient to produce it?"

Unexpectedly, why the other party cares about this, Aubrig directly replied: "This kind of mold embryo is fired by mudstones. The production difficulty is based on the shape and construction requirements. The price is quite cheap in a single price, but the quantity is too high, and the cost is still very expensive. What is important is that although this is also a craft, it is not as high as a blacksmith. Not many people have learned it, so it is impossible to find the number of people that meet your mass production needs."

Aubu was not thinking hard. After explaining it briefly, he told Lu Chen that it was not feasible, but then he saw Lucien and Farns laughing, and even Evan, who was about the same age as him, was thinking about something.

"Haha, you kid, it's really good. You can think of this. How does your head grow?" Farns praised Lu Chen with exaggerated words.

"It's nothing, it's not much different from doing other things. If you can't do it directly, just do it indirectly." Lu Chen shrugged and said naturally.

"What are you talking about? Why don't I understand at all?" Aubrig, who only had a magical weapon in his head, had an objection.

"Think it through? Then give me a bottle of your wine, no, half a bottle, I will tell you, how about it?" Farns immediately extorted him when he saw the opportunity.

"Don't dream, Evan, you said, otherwise you will only give you the dragon teeth that Lucien promised to you, and you can find someone to build it yourself." Aubrig shamelessly bullied the honestest person here.

"Uh~ Master Aubu, you can't do this." Evan looked at the others with a frown on his face to seek help. He didn't dare to offend anyone here. It was not until Lu Chen smiled and relieved him that he explained a little scaredly: "I don't know if my idea is right. I just use better materials to make this kind of stone and earth molding molding first, and then produce a large amount of stone and earth molding molding, and then use it to make equipment. Although it is still a disposable molding molding, it is easy to make and the quantity is large. According to Lucien's method, the cost will be greatly reduced, which is completely in line with the needs of mass production." After that, Evan secretly glanced at the big boss Farns.

"What a mess, the molding of the molding... Yes, why didn't I expect it? It's just a military equipment. This disposable stone-based molding is enough." Aubrig suddenly realized.

"I have long said that the blacksmith who is determined to make magical artifacts is not a good blacksmith." Farns ridiculed Aubu and said to Lu Chen: "Since the method is done, I will help you find the remaining mudsmiths. Anyway, there should be no need for too many. As long as you can be responsible for the inspection and firing process, it is enough?"

"This~ OK, then I'll thank you for yourselves first. If there is anything that can be used to make me say, I will do my best." Lu Chen didn't say nonsense. It would be much more convenient for Farns to find people than they would themselves. At least the Skinner family would not come to any conclusions through their own actions, and he could guess that Farns would have something to ask for.

"Ha, okay, it's so refreshing, then I'll just say it. I also have a small team, want to make some money and spend it, but don't worry about not having a conflict with you in the Kingdom of Finesh. You don't mind getting a share of the pie." Farns also avoided something and said directly, but before Lu Chen nodded, he added: "Wait, including the things in Edwin, you have to think clearly. Of course, I won't let you lose too much. How about I share your profits outside?"

"This is obviously a monopoly with me." Lu Chen turned his eyes and smiled thankfully and nodded in agreement. Although 10% of the profit seemed to be a little less, it was a world-class and was definitely an incalculable amount. Even if the other party didn't give it, it was OK to secretly occupy the outside market share. Now he didn't pay a penny and put in a share. He could get such a share in just a few words. Friends can no longer have friends. As for the production method of silk items in Edwin, Lu Chen said that he would agree to him first and would not say the production method, so they would negotiate it themselves.

Farns was very satisfied with Lu Chen's agreement and rejection. In fact, he and Edwin had an agreement on silk equipment. Let me put it here, it was purely a test. If Lu Chen said that Farns would definitely be more careful in the future cooperation between the two parties. The most feared thing about business cooperation is trust, but it is not a bad thing to obtain a simple method of making silk items; on the contrary, there is nothing to worry about, and there is still more time in the future, and he believes that both parties will definitely have better cooperation.

"Then I can only do the blacksmith." Aubrig said with great self-awareness: "I don't have many people here. When you start work, take Titu and the others away. I'm just responsible for supervision, so there should be no problem."

"Thank you, Aubu...friend." Looking at Aubrig's eyes, Lu Chen, who wanted to call him a master, had to change his words, then took out a piece of silver ore, handed it over and said, "Okay, a matter of worry is over, so please let everyone solve the next one together."

"Why are you doing so many things? Really, isn't this just the slag ore left behind after a piece of flint burned? Although there are very few people in the world and there are not many people who know it, there is nothing worth studying." Old Teke, who was drinking, finally spoke.

The other three looked at Lu Chen and waited for him to continue the problem. After many experiences, no one dared to underestimate this newly-adult child.

"Sweat, slag ore, is really an appropriate name." Seeing everyone's expectation expression, Lu Chen, who was sweating in his heart, could only scratch his head and said a little embarrassedly: "This is the first time I heard that, I originally thought it was something good... But as far as I know, all ores have their own characteristics, this ore that is accompanied by flint ore shouldn't be really a waste, right?"

"What are the characteristics? As far as we know, this metal is difficult to dissolve, has high toughness and is not hard enough, and does not have much defense power to make it into any equipment. Even if it is made into a bowl, it is easy to deform. It is slightly better for the permeability of Dou Qi and Magic than other metals, but it does not have any material for any staff, and it is almost useless in combination." As an expert, Aubu said what he knew.

"Uh~ It sounds really useless. Have you tried to fuse it with other metals?" Lu Chen asked unwillingly.

"This has been tried before, but because it is difficult to dissolve it, it cannot be combined into other metals, and it was left alone."

"Has anyone tried to throw it directly into the dissolved metal liquid?"

"Uh~ No one seems to have tried this, just throwing a lump in, what's the use of throwing it in?" Aubu asked in confusion, but the instinct of a blacksmith asked him to take the slag ore, and according to Lu Chen's question, he found a special stone bucket containing the liquid of fine steel that just melted and threw it in.

Others also surrounded him curiously, wanting to know what the results would be obtained by Lu Chen's strange opinions.

Everyone was resistant to the high temperature and looked patiently. Not long after, Aubrig exclaimed in awe. Then everyone saw that the slag ore that had originally exposed a sharp corner in the barrel was completely covered by liquid steel, which means that it was indeed melting and faster than ordinary metals. This was too magical for it, which did not change at all during the combustion of the flint ore.

Aubrig quickly used the bucket gas to activate the furnace fire, increasing the temperature of the liquid steel so that it could melt and fuse the slag ore more quickly. He couldn't wait to see the final result.

Lu Chen did not stop either. Such novelty made him curiously release his consciousness to investigate the changes. It was very interesting to find that the Dou Qi that catalyzes high-temperature firepower also have an effect on the slag stone ore. Those dissolved slag stone ore are flowing in the liquid steel in disorder with the Dou Qi.

With a sudden inspiration, Lu Chen immediately shouted: "Hurry up the liquid with the fighting spirit."

Evan didn't even think about it, and immediately released his fighting spirit and started to do it as Lu Chen said, regardless of what effect this would be. Anyway, he was the "smallest" here and it was impossible for his big boss and big brother to take action.

Needless to say, anyone could see that there would be another surprise this time. Everyone was waiting nervously. When Lu Chen said he would stop, Aubu immediately took out the remaining slag ore with tools, and then quickly cast the sword with these mixed metals.

Pour it into the mold embryo and cool it down without having to use a hammer to repeatedly hit it. It was just opened with the seventh-level fighting spirit, and a one-handed sword with ordinary appearance but hidden sharpness was completed.

The sword that he had seized from the Skinner's seventh-level swordsman last time was taken out from the space ring and handed it to Farns. The old man didn't care about the huge gap on it, and he raised his hand and slashed at the dwarf master who was really appreciating the work; Aubu didn't care, and slashed the sword in his hand accurately behind the original large gap so that the sword in his hand would not be broken due to the original scar.

After a "ding" sound, everyone gathered up to check the results.

"How about it?"

"This is also a good sword made of all stainless steel. The big gap on the little guy should be caused by the meteorite sword... Is it the sword of the girl Verona's opponent?" Aubrig did not answer, but instead asked about the origin of the original scars on the sword body.

"Haha, I can't hide this from you, but should I confirm the other aspects of this new sword first?" Looking at the intact new sword and the collapse of a small old sword, Lu Chen was extremely satisfied with this alloy.

"No need, I have already felt the particularity of this material. Not only did I raise the original material to a higher level, but the fusion of Dou Qi and Magic is also many times higher than that of normal materials. It is simply a metal reinforcer." Aubrig made his comment.

"Oh? Can that be strengthened too for the sword we want?" Farns immediately cared about his weapon.

"Uh~ Why do you always feel good about me when you open your mouth? The strengthening of the Dragon Teeth Sword is relatively limited. It is not metal. Even if the surface coating is stainless steel, the blade is full of meteorite, and the effect of ginseng is not great." Aubrig frowned, very dissatisfied with Farns, and then said a little revenge: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, take advantage of Lucien to do it again, everyone should work harder to make all the polished dragon teeth today, so that you old guys will not have to eat free for me." As he said that, he waved his sword in his hand and "spurred" three "old slaves".
