Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

After properly handling the household chores, Cheng Feng turned his attention to the remaining materials from the Redscale Serpent.

He hadn't done it before because he was broke, but now that the new batch of refined salt had been successfully sold, Cheng Feng deeply felt that this kind of head-lopping business was truly addictive.

Just as the older generation often said, with profits as high as three hundred percent, one would do it even at the risk of losing their head.

Several times, Cheng Feng had the idea of expanding the refined salt business, but he ultimately restrained himself.

After all, his current trading method was very casual, without any bookkeeping, fixed times, or locations. Each time, he shipped a small quantity, so even if something happened, it would be difficult to trace back to him.

Once the quantity became large, things would become uncertain. This world had martial artists and sorcerers, and these were just the ones Cheng Feng had encountered. There were countless others he hadn't, and it was estimated that tracking and tracing would be even easier for them.

Currently, Cheng Feng urgently needed money, and he also needed to find a few more beauties. His ideal candidates had to have large breasts, curvy hips, and be good at bearing children. If they were also beautiful, that would be even better. Only then would he feel that his efforts were not in vain.

Things had to be done one at a time, and Cheng Feng's cultivation realm would increase gradually; there was no rush.

Right now, Cheng Feng had four hundred and ninety taels of silver, which was the most savings he had ever had in his life.

He gave one hundred taels to Cai'er for household expenses, and then Cheng Feng called for Baibai and Cheng Yi, took the serpent fangs and scales (enough for about five people), and headed towards the blacksmith shop.

The sun gradually rose higher, and the scorching sunlight shone on the blacksmith shop's facade, highlighting the mottled rust.

Cheng Feng stood outside the door, looking at the familiar blacksmith shop, and a strange excitement welled up in his heart.

He finally had money to forge equipment! The serpent fangs and scales in his hands seemed to sense his mood, emitting a faint, gloomy light.

Stepping into the blacksmith shop, a wave of hot, metallic air rushed towards him. In the glow of the furnace, blacksmith Master Liu was focused on hammering the iron billet in his hand, sparks flying, creating a pleasant 'ding-ding-dang-dang' sound.

When Master Liu saw Cheng Feng enter, he stopped his work, looked up, and smiled: "Yo, Young Master Cheng, why do you have time to visit my blacksmith shop today? Do you have some novel items to forge again?"

Master Liu remembered Cheng Feng. The first time was the design of the Embroidered Spring Blade, and the last time Cheng Feng was actually able to bring out heavy iron, a rare metal. It was hard not to remember Cheng Feng. Every time he finished forging a weapon for Cheng Feng, Master Liu felt that his skills had improved slightly.

Cheng Feng smiled and shook his head, handing over the serpent fangs and scales: "Master Liu, take a look at these materials. Can you help me forge a few handy weapons?"

Master Liu took the serpent fangs and scales, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "This... these are materials from a monstrous beast? Good heavens, judging by the color and texture, it's at least an old serpent with Blood Refinement strength. These scales are so tough, and the serpent fangs are so sharp. Truly rare and good materials!"

Cheng Feng nodded, his expression calm, but his heart was filled with joy. Master Liu was indeed knowledgeable.

He hadn't expected that these materials from a monstrous beast would be so valuable. It seemed that he had really struck gold this time.

Master Liu pondered for a moment, then said: "Young Master Cheng, these materials are indeed precious, but forging weapons also takes time. Let me ask you, what special requirements do you have for the weapons you want?"

After thinking for a moment, Cheng Feng slowly said: "I plan to forge these scales into four sets of close-fitting light armor for the three of us to use; the serpent fangs can be made into standard knives of the same specification as before; as for those sharp fang tips, they can be used as arrowheads. This way, we can maximize the use of these materials. I wonder if this plan is feasible?"

Master Liu nodded slightly, indicating his approval. He first carefully examined the heavy serpent fangs in his hand, then picked up a rope ruler to measure the height of Cheng Feng and the other two. After careful comparison and consideration, he finally had a plan in mind.

Then he replied: "Forging the knives will take about fifteen days, but making the light armor will only take five days. However, it will still require multiple steps such as drilling, equalizing the weight, and steaming. The arrowhead process is relatively simple. If you are willing to wait, then the total cost will be ninety taels of silver, and you need to pay thirty taels as a deposit first. You can come to pick up the goods in half a month."

Cheng Feng naturally agreed.

After finishing the business, Master Liu turned around and returned to the furnace, starting to work busily. Cheng Feng stood aside, watching Master Liu skillfully and attentively operate the hammer and anvil, marveling that every profession had its own experts.

Half a month passed like flowing water. When Master Liu stopped his work, Cheng Feng was pleasantly surprised to see four exquisite long knives and four sets of sturdy and lightweight armor appearing before him.

Cheng Feng grasped the hilt of one of the long knives and slowly pulled it out, carefully examining the blade. He saw that the blade presented an astonishing bone-white tone. He lightly tapped the blade with his finger, and a crisp and melodious metallic sound came. Cheng Feng waved it gently, and the sword light was like a training, and the cold air was pressing.

Looking at the four sets of light armor that had been completed, they showed a deep black-red tone, but faintly exuded a metallic texture.

Cheng Feng was full of curiosity about the production of this metallic luster, and could not help but ask Master Liu about it. Master Liu's face was filled with pride and complacency, and he replied proudly: "Fortunately, you kid found me, other people are afraid that they really can't do these. In order to smelt these serpent fangs and scales, I took out the flux that I've been saving! Plus carefully selected fine gold and white iron, after repeated forging and polishing, I created these four fine knives. As for the scales, it's the same principle, so next time if you want to do something like this, you have to add more money!"

Cheng Feng was amazed, smelting bones and keratinous substances, and re-casting them with metal?

This was truly eye-opening.

Master Liu's words revealed his confidence in his craftsmanship and his appreciation for the materials.

Cheng Feng understood that this experienced craftsman had indeed put in a lot of effort to create such excellent weapons and armor.

The two smiled at each other, both satisfied with this cooperation.

He looked gratefully at Master Liu and said, "Master Liu, thank you so much! Your craftsmanship is truly amazing!"

Master Liu waved his hand and smiled: "Young Master Cheng is too polite. The materials you provided are so precious, it is my honor to be able to create such weapons. Now that the weapons have been forged, I won't disturb you any further."

After exchanging money and goods, Cheng Feng thanked him again and left the blacksmith shop. He looked at the long knife in his hand, his heart full of anticipation and confidence.
