In this troubled world, I can optimize everything

Soon, Liu Shenghan and several swordsmen brought over the pig iron that Chen Heng wanted.

"Brother, why do you suddenly need so much pig iron?"

After placing the pig iron on the cart prepared for Chen Heng, Liu Shenghan still couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked the question.

"Wear a pair of steel armor to protect my fragile body."

Chen Heng touched the pig iron on the train, turned around and said with a smile.

"?" Liu Shenghan looked confused.

Your old flesh is a bit harder than fine steel.

You can be tough and weird, but is this steel armor really necessary?

Of course, these were what Liu Shenghan was secretly thinking in his mind and he didn't really say them out.

"Okay, you can go about your business."

Chen Heng waved his hand, got on the carriage and left the mine.

"Brother Liu, is it really necessary for Brother Chen to wear a pair of steel armor?"

After Chen Heng left, a swordsman couldn't help but ask.

"That's right. I saw how Brother Chen slashed the Wutong cult demon to death that night."

"That hard work is probably even more powerful than the master of Xuanwu Hall!"

Several swordsmen agreed, not understanding why Chen Heng did this.

"Who knows, maybe the master has his own ideas?"

Liu Shenghan shook his head. He felt more and more that he couldn't understand his elder brother.

......

Lou's Blacksmith Shop.

Stopping the carriage, Chen Heng looked at the familiar blacksmith shop in front of him.

The Heisha Dao before optimization was bought at this blacksmith shop.

Later, after joining Baihutang, Chen Heng learned that this blacksmith shop was originally the property of Qinglongtang.

No wonder they can offer such a high monthly payment.

The boy who had received Chen Heng before saw Baihutang's carriage, and ran over instead of taking three steps.

Several other waiters secretly regretted that they were not discerning enough and missed out on big business.

"Master, what do you want to see?"

The boy walked forward with a smile, but was stunned when he saw Chen Heng's face.

"Why, don't you remember me?" Chen Heng glanced at the boy and asked.

"How could I forget you, Mr. Chen!" Although this man is just a young man, he still has a way of dealing with others.

"You are now a famous figure in Qiyang City. Anyone who has been in the hall doesn't know your name!"

The boy's eyes were filled with admiration, and he stood attentively beside Chen Heng.

"The battle against the Wutong Shen Cult and the Fude Orthodox Sect, the battle against the weird Goulan Street, I have heard about all these things!"

"You are so lucky to have Mr. Chen in Qiyang City!"

"Glib tongue." Chen Heng shook his head and let the boy lead the way.

"Come with me, let's go to the living room on the second floor and chat slowly."

The management method of this blacksmith shop is rather strange. Even the servants have the opportunity to negotiate business and get commission.

This method was so modern that Chen Heng couldn't help but admire Qinglongtang.

"I wonder what Mr. Chen is doing today?"

In the guest room on the second floor, the waiter brought a cup of fragrant tea and placed it in front of Chen Heng.

"How much does it cost to make a set of steel armor by bringing your own materials?"

Chen Heng picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The aroma is overflowing but not cloying.

It tastes slightly bitter in the mouth, but has a sweet aftertaste.

This tea is not cheap.

"That depends on what kind of steel you want."

The boy began to introduce Chen Heng to the different prices of different steel materials.

Ten Steelmaking has the lowest price and is also the cheapest steel. It only costs ten taels of silver for the craftsmanship.

The second level is hundreds of refined steel, which is moderately priced and is the material of choice for many people's weapons. The crafting fee is twenty-five taels of silver.

But this is the first time I have used it to make armor.

Not because of anything else, just because the price is too high, ordinary warriors can't afford it.

Even though the price of twenty-five taels of silver is not high, it is just the labor cost.

If you count the iron materials, there is no one that cannot be obtained for one or two hundred taels of silver.

Finally, there is Qian Steel, which is the most expensive and the most sophisticated steel.

The labor cost is sixty taels of silver, and one thousand kilograms of pig iron can only produce three hundred kilograms of steel.

"Three hundred pounds..."

Chen Heng didn't care about the 60 taels of craftsmanship fee, but he just thought that the 300 kilograms of steel armor would be too light?

Forget it, just be gentle.

Shaking his head, Chen Heng chose Qian Steelmaking to build his own steel armor.

"How long will it take to get my steel armor out?"

"It takes a lot of time and effort to make steel. It will probably take several months to make the steel armor."

This is still under the condition that the pig iron brought by Chen Heng is of good quality.

If there were more impurities in the pig iron, it would be possible in two or three months.

"Let half of the masters in your shop do my job."

"Forge this set of steel armor for me within seven days."

Chen Heng directly took out a three hundred tael silver note.

"This..." The boy was a little confused. He stared at the three hundred taels of silver notes on the table.

He wanted to take over the job, but he couldn't guarantee efficiency.

Suddenly, a burst of heavy footsteps reached Chen Heng's ears.

"Chen Heng, why are you here?" A familiar voice came, and Xu Lieying pushed the door open and entered.

The boy stood up immediately and stood aside with his head lowered.

"Okay, you go down, you don't know how to serve the distinguished guests when they come to your door."

"I'll spare you this once, but don't do it next time!"

Xu Lieying waved his hand to signal the boy to leave, and he sat opposite Chen Heng.

The young man saluted and hurriedly left the guest room. How could he have expected that the master of his hall was here.

This is too small.

"You don't have to be like this, Hall Master Xu, that boy is pretty good."

Chen Heng found that the boy was quite pleasing to his eye, so he said a word for him.

"Oh, I can't really punish him." Xu Lieying picked up Chen Heng's tea and took a sip.

"Why do you want to wear a set of steel armor all of a sudden?"

"Your hard skills are more powerful than the old bastard. The steel armor shouldn't be of much use, right?"

Chen Heng didn't waste any time and directly told Xu Lieying his idea of ​​stage one and stage two.

"Pfft! Hahaha!"

Xu Lieying couldn't hold it back and squirted out.

"You're a bad boy, you can think of such damaging moves."

"Ahem, I won't talk nonsense to you. When you come to my place, don't think about spending money. I'll take care of everything."

After clearing his throat, Xu Lieying's words could be described as domineering.

"A set of steel armor, right? Three days is enough."

"I asked the master in the shop to put aside all other work and make your Thousand Steel Armor first."

"By the way, what kind of fight do you want?"

"I can't tell you. If I have pen and paper, I can draw it for you."

Chen Heng has a set of armor in his mind that he really wants to try, but he just doesn't know if it exists in this world.

"Come on, come on! I'll serve you with pen and ink!"

Xu Lieying clapped his hands, and two boys immediately brought pen and paper.

After drawing the armor he had in mind, Chen Heng picked it up, blew on it and handed it to Xu Lieying.

"Huh?" Xu Lieying was stunned for a moment, put down the paper in his hand and looked at Chen Heng.

"Isn't this the Iron Buddha? General Xin of the northern garrison is wearing this outfit."

"Good guy, you are giving me a difficult problem."
