Genshen: Starting from Liyue, he is equipped with the seals of the Six Kingdoms

Inazuma's sword-forging technique has existed since ancient times, and its roots all come from Raiden Shogun, so it is also known as the Five Legends of Raiden. Their names are Tenmu, Jingjin, Isshin, Hundred Eyes, and Senju.

After hundreds of years of reproduction, these five lineages have basically achieved a certain social status, at least at the level of a small landowner.

Tatarsha has been the center of Inazuma's forging and smelting for thousands of years. When this dark disaster occurred, most of the swordsmiths of Thunder and Lightning Five Legends lived in the Tatasha area and suffered a lot of impact.

Fortunately, the Kamisato family, who were responsible for protecting the swordsmiths, responded quickly and sent out troops as quickly as possible to take the swordsmiths back to Narukami Island, thus avoiding large-scale losses to the swordsmiths.

Among the five families, the one that suffered the most was Isshinden. This swordsmith family lost most of its family members and subordinate swordsmiths, leaving only the last direct lineage member, who was adopted by the head of the Jingjin lineage, Jingjin Shimi.

Therefore, in the end, only four swordsmith family leaders followed Kamisato Michio to General Raiden's temporary camp on an outlying island.

Dan Lei Movie General Yu introduced the situation of trampling tar sand to the four people, and then took out a small piece of steel and asked the attendants to pass it to everyone to take turns to watch.

This piece of steel was refined by the craftsmen who accompanied the army under his guidance. It was the steel jade commonly used in Inazuma's swords in later generations.

The smelting method of this material has been widely spread in later generations. It's not that Inazuma's sense of confidentiality is not strong enough, but because the crystallized bone marrow, a specialty of Inazuma, must be used to refine steel jade, it would be useless even if others knew the formula.

Even if part of the crystallized bone marrow can be purchased for small-scale refining, the cost will definitely be much higher than the cost of large-scale refining by Inazuma in Tatarsha using the Mikage Furnace Heart. It is better to directly import steel jade!

The Liyue Dan family has been in the ore business for generations, so they naturally know a lot about steel jade and have a collection of steel jade formulas. Niwa saw this recipe while looking through the family's collection of books and remembered it in his mind. Unexpectedly, it would come in handy at this time.

"This was made during my inspection of Tatar Sand. I temporarily named it 'Steel Jade'. The strength and toughness of this material are very suitable for forging swords. Do you know what the raw materials are for making it?"

The four of them shook their heads together.

"This is it." Niyu asked his attendant to hold a plate of ore in front of everyone.

The ore was crystal clear in color, but it contained strange black lines and green light, which looked quite evil.

"Have you ever seen this kind of 'crystallized bone marrow'?"

The four of them looked at each other and bowed down: "Tell me, General. I have seen it before."

"Oh? Tell me about it." Niyu pointed at the clan leader of Tenmu Ryu.

"This kind of ore is produced in the mines of Baling Island, but the quantity is rare. My ancestors also tried to smelt it with this material, but they gave up after only a rough trial because the quantity of this kind of ore was too rare. , the cost of testing is too high." The Tianmuliu clan leader kowtowed.

"But it won't happen now... There are such things everywhere on the battlefield of Kujo Jinya. You may not know that when this kind of ore accumulates in large quantities, it is easy to produce evil spirits. If it cannot be dealt with as soon as possible, the entire Kannazuka area will be destroyed. To be affected.”

Niyu said, stood up and said: "Therefore, the task I give you is to find a way to turn waste into treasure and find a smelting method to convert this ore into steel jade in large quantities! By then, steel jade and swords will become Our rice wife’s flagship product for exporting and earning foreign exchange! Give us a steady stream of blood transfusions! Only in this way can rice wife come out of the shadow of the dark disaster as soon as possible!”

The four people hurriedly bowed down and agreed.

Niyu asked again: "How many swordsmiths are there in each of your factions now? Tell me one by one."

It was the Tianmuliu clan leader who bowed his head first and said: "I have sixteen master swordsmen in my family, and more than one hundred and thirty apprentices and craftsmen's slaves..."

"Wait? Craftsman slave?"

"Yes, there are those slaves who have some talent and can serve as assistants to knifemakers... In fact, most of the apprentices are just untouchables who don't even have a surname..."

Niyu was stunned when he heard this.

In the previous life, most common people in Japan did not have surnames and had only one given name. Surnames were the privilege of the nobility. It was not until the Meiji Restoration era that the government forced all common people to take surnames, and Japanese people did not have surnames on a large scale. This is also the reason why Japan has so many weird surnames.

I didn’t expect Inazuma to be like this too...

As a modern person at heart, Niwa knows that slavery is impossible to liberate and develop productive forces. It is impossible for a person who does not even have the most basic freedom to create excess value.

So he told Kamisato Daofeng: "Kamizato, please discuss with the ministers and draft a decree, saying that as long as you make a certain contribution to the shogunate, such as turning over a certain amount of grain, forging a certain number of weapons and armor, , you can redeem your freedom and have the rights of civilians."

Shenli Daofeng was slightly startled, "General, are you targeting everyone?"

Niyu nodded, "Let's discuss it first and see who among the nobles opposes it. For those who oppose it, tell them not to be afraid, and they can write to me to explain the reasons."

Daofeng Shenli quickly bowed down and said, "I understand."

After giving this order, Niyu returned to the original topic, "By the way, let's go back to the matter of smelting and forging... There is a lot of crystallized bone marrow, and if you rely on the original master to lead the apprentices, each family will start the furnace. I’m afraid the forging method won’t work anymore.”

"I plan to use Tatar Sand's original smelting workshop to transform it into a large-scale forging and smelting plant, introduce Fontaine's advanced mechanical technology, and create a furnace core that can quickly smelt crystallized bone marrow in large quantities."

"I have already sent someone to Fontaine to contact you regarding related matters, but for the forging and smelting aspect, I still need a general person in charge. Your five families are the best swordsmiths in Inazuma. Who is willing to stand up and take on this responsibility?"

The four of them looked at each other.

After a long time, it was Suzumi, the third generation of Suizuryu, who came out and said: "Sir General, I am willing to take on this responsibility!"

Niyu's expression moved slightly, "This madam, you have a heavy responsibility in managing Tatarsha, and you have to deal with crystallized bone marrow every day. It is inevitable that you will be affected by evil forces. You are a woman..."

Suzumi paid his respects again: "Miss Shogun Mitsuyo is also a woman. Can't she also lead the army and protect the country and the people? Why does the general think that a little girl is not worthy of this position!"

Seeing that she was determined, Niyu nodded and said: "In that case, I will leave all the preparations for the construction of Tatar Sand Workshop to you! If you do well, I will knight you. If you do not do well..."

Jing Jinshi stared and said: "If you don't do well, I won't bother you, General, to punish you. This little girl will kill herself to thank you, General!"

"Okay! He is as heroic as a man!" Niyu strode forward and helped her up. "In this case, I will also give you three strategies. If you follow these three strategies, there is at least a 70% chance that this job can be accomplished!"

"Please tell me, General!"

Niyu looked into her eyes and said sincerely: "First, seek the opinions of professionals on everything. I will invite Xumi scholars and Fontaine craftsmen for you. You can't just use them as decorations!"

"Second, stimulate everyone's enthusiasm. If a skill can be taught to a hundred people, don't just teach it to ninety-nine. You need to know that only when more people study the skill together can there be room for improvement and vitality!"

"Third, pay attention to evil spirits and keep in touch with the shogunate doctors!"
