After dinner, Fang Shiqing went to soak in the hot springs, and her assistant followed her.
Gu Xuan then led Qing Ye to the forging workshop.
I acquired the forging workshop yesterday and want to forge a short sword.
Arriving at the workshop.
After looking around, I confirmed that the tools were comprehensive.
Just about to start the live stream.
Suddenly, a question came to mind.
I was stunned for a long time.
"We forgot that we only had tools, not materials."
They were dumbfounded.
"You forgot about something so important."
Open the system store.
"The system opens the metal material."
The interface changed, and a large amount of metal appeared.
The most common one is iron, of course.
However, the iron provided by the system is very different from the iron in reality.
Click to view the introduction.
"Purified iron contains no impurities."
The price is not high either.
A piece of iron weighing about ten kilograms would cost only a little over ten million.
"The price isn't high, but the iron is too soft and not suitable for forging cold weapons."
Check other metals.
It contains common metals, and these metals are far superior to those produced by current technology.
I watched it normally.
I saw a lot of synthetic metals.
These synthetic metals attracted Gu Xuan.
Are these synthetic metals really as described?
The system provided an answer.
“The host has no need to doubt.”
"Then let's buy one and try it out."
Look at the piece with the more common synthetic metal.
This is an alloy described as a cold carbon synthetic metal.
Even if you recognize all the characters, you still won't understand the meaning.
Introduction to face reading.
The description states that this metal is harder than existing metals and has a very high density; its weight of five kilograms is only enough to forge one weapon.
It looked like a piece of metal that wasn't much bigger than a fist.
Gu Xuan frowned slightly.
"With such a high density and a weight of five kilograms, it would be exhausting for an ordinary person to wield such a weapon. Fortunately, my body has been enhanced."
The body, enhanced by the system, is no match for these five kilograms.
At this moment, the system emitted a sound.
"The host does not need to use cold-blast alloys entirely; they can be forged to integrate them into other metals."
"That's possible, but that would reduce the hardness of the cold carbon alloy."
"With the current hardness of cold carbon alloy, no metal can match it."
"Understood."
These metals are the most common metals in the system alloy.
What would the strength be like with other metals?
Gu Xuan didn't even dare to think about it.
"Then let's use ordinary steel, nothing too heavy."
We chose a combination of ordinary steel and cold carbon alloy.
Prepare the materials.
Gu Xuan then started a live stream.
A large number of fans flooded in the moment the live stream started.
The missing person has returned.
'Finally, I see Brother Xuan!'
Gu Xuan was a little puzzled.
"I didn't do a live stream yesterday."
"Brother Xuan, don't you know what it means to feel like three autumns have passed in a single day?"
'Yes, yes.'
"Where is Brother Xuan taking us today?"
'Wait, look where Xuan-ge is!'
"I'll take you guys to do something today."
'What are you doing now?'
The viewers in the live stream also started to get curious.
Gu Xuan controlled the drone to rotate the camera and inspect the workshop.
The unfamiliar workshop piqued the curiosity of everyone in the live stream.
'What is this for?'
'I'm curious too.'
It looks like a blacksmith's shop.
'No way.'
'The things laid out around me do look like a blacksmith's shop.'
"Brother Xuan is going to forge iron."
Gu Xuan smiled and replied when he saw the comments.
"This handsome guy guessed correctly."
'What, it really is a blacksmith shop.'
'Is Brother Xuan going to become a blacksmith?'
"It's not about being a blacksmith and forging a cold weapon today, just to be a toy."
This further fueled the curiosity of fans.
Everyone was staring at the live stream.
'I'd like to see what kind of cold weapon Brother Xuan is going to use.'
'curious. '
Curious fans also began to urge them on.
"Brother Xuan, let's begin."
Gu Xuan shook his head helplessly.
"All the necessary materials are ready."
They showed off the metal they had taken out.
A piece of silver steel and a piece of black metal.
I saw black metal.
Many people are curious.
'The black one, streamer, is also made of metal.'
Gu Xuan explained.
"This is a synthetic metal with high hardness and density."
The fans became interested.
'We've seen black metal before, but I've never seen this kind of bright black metal before.'
'That's really strange.'
Out of curiosity.
Gu Xuan didn't want to explain further.
After all, this metal is harder than existing metals, and exposure to it will definitely cause trouble.
I don't want to reveal anything, so I can only give a brief introduction.
"This is a synthetic metal, and its hardness is quite good."
But fans didn't buy this explanation.
I don't believe it.
'I always felt this metal was unusual.'
I think so too.
Unbeknownst to Gu Xuan, several research institutes had watched his live stream.
Everyone who saw this black metal felt that it was something special.
They were among those sending comments in the live stream chat.
Gu Xuan quickly changed the subject.
"That's not the point. Let's forge weapons first."
Then a piece of cold carbon alloy was cut off.
It weighs a little over one kilogram, and then ordinary steel is used.
It used more than two kilograms.
That's about enough material for one knife.
The steel was then wrapped around the alloy.
Place it in the electric furnace and start heating.
The alloy takes a long time to soften completely; this heating process took half an hour.
The heated alloy is placed on a forging hammer and forging begins.
Fortunately, it was machine-forged.
It is highly efficient.
In addition, the alloy itself has a high hardness, so mechanical forging saves a lot of time.
The heat subsided after the first forging.
Put it back into the furnace.
In the live stream at this moment.
"Brother Xuan's forging hammer doesn't seem very good. Judging from the changes this time, the forging hasn't achieved the desired effect."
How did the person upstairs figure that out?
I work in the machinery industry.
Gu Xuan explained after reading the comments.
"Actually, it's because of the hardness of the alloy."
"Brother Xuan, what's the hardness of this alloy?"
He didn't want to answer.
Have you ever heard of the Tang sword?
The direction suddenly changed.
"Brother Xuan wants to make a Tang sword."
'There are many Tang swords being sold online now, and they're quite well made.'
"Indeed, I bought one; the workmanship is decent."
"Yes, there are many vendors selling Tang swords now, and the style of Tang swords has also changed. What we are making today is a Tang sword."
I want to see it.
+1.
This immediately changed the direction of the discussion.
Many people have also forgotten that they asked about the hardness before.
But Gu Xuan didn't know that.
He revealed something.
In an office.
“I just checked it. The metal he used has a very high hardness, and at the same time, it has very good ductility.”
"I'm sure I didn't see it wrong."
"No."
"It seems I need to make contact with him."
"Then let's go directly there."
"Don't act rashly, try to buy something first."
You mean metal?
"Um."
The two thought about it for a moment.
"No, buying it directly will definitely attract attention."
"Then let's find a way to buy a cold weapon."
"That is indeed a method, but cold weapons, after being fused together, are certainly not as accurate."
"Let's give it a try."
"good."
The plan is in place.
