Da Qin: At the age of six, I beat Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 76 Is iron, but not entirely iron
"normal?"

Zulong's eyeballs are protruding from the eye sockets.

"This is a bronze sword crafted by the best craftsman in Daqin!
Each sword took more than 30 days and hundreds of processes!

These bronze swords are so sharp that they break hair!

Although they are made of bronze, they are tougher than ordinary bronze!

Because the production is too low, it is only used by the Royal Guard! "

Zulong said a lot of words in one breath: .

"Such a sword represents the highest level of casting technology in China for more than 1000 years!
Then you tell me.

He was chopped off with an iron axe.

Can this be called normal? "

Qin Mu stretched out his little finger and picked his ears. Zulong's voice was a bit loud, which made his ears feel a little uncomfortable.

"Father, why are you so surprised? Isn't it right that iron objects should defeat bronze objects?"

Zulong was speechless.

Doesn't Qin Mu know anything about smelting?

Why did you say that "iron wares should defeat bronze wares"?
With the casting level of iron now, it's no wonder that it can beat bronze, right?

Could it be that the casting level of this iron ax is not ordinary?
Mu'er here, is there still a master-level blacksmith?
If it is a casting master who can rival Ou Yezi, it is indeed possible to make iron ware surpass bronze ware.

It's just a casting master who can wrestle with Ou Yezi, how could Qin Mu have one?
This is not necessarily the case, after all, the guard Dian Wei is also somewhat beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Thinking of this, he showed a clear smile: .

"I see, Mu'er, is there a casting master among your followers?"

"Hahaha, Dad, you think too much."

Qin Mu laughed out loud.

Considering Daqin's casting level, ironware technology is indeed still very poor.

Therefore, it is normal for him to ask this question.

In his heart, I'm afraid that the newly developed ironware is far inferior to the mature bronze, right?
No wonder Daqin has not developed the iron smelting industry on a large scale so far.

Qin Mu restrained his smile and explained: .

"Father, this was made by an ordinary craftsman.

Ah Da, call Li Hei over here! "

Soon, a burly, muscular man with a dark complexion ran over.

Li Hei bowed and cupped his fists: .

"I have seen the lord! I have seen the master!"

Qin Mu nodded, and then said to Zulong: .

"Father, this is the blacksmith.

Six months ago, when I was practicing medicine in Fangshi, he suffered severe burns while forging iron.

After I healed him, he became my guest. "

Zu Long looked at Li Hei and realized that he was a simple man.

Simple means that it has no characteristics. After seeing it, I don’t know what words to use to describe it.

He seemed to be forging iron just now, so he was shirtless and sweating profusely.

From the left side of the neck all the way to the left rib, a large burn mark is very conspicuous.

He neither has the substantive arrogance of a master, nor the calmness of being in a certain industry for a long time.

Thinking about it, a blacksmith was severely burned while forging...

At this level, let alone a master, it is hard to say whether he can be called a qualified blacksmith!

Li Hei was also a little embarrassed by Qin Mu's words, scratched his head and said: .

"I was also careless at the time... I have never been burned before..."

Zu Long thought in his heart that it must be like this.

With Daqin's level of medical treatment, if you were severely burned before you met Qin Mu...

It is estimated that it has already lived in a small square box...

As soon as Li Hei showed up, Zu Long also confirmed that there were no casting masters here.

Then this thing is a little strange.

Zu Long was curious, he must find out about this matter.

He took the iron ax in his hand, played with it and asked: .

"What's going on? Is this really iron?"

Qin Mu smiled: .

"Of course it's iron. It's just not ordinary iron."

Another trick...

Zu Long hurriedly asked: .

"It's iron, but it's not ordinary iron? Why is it not common law?"

Qin Mu waved Li Hei to leave, and replied: .

"The raw material is indeed iron.

It's just that I improved the method of making this ironware.

The impurities in the iron are discharged, thereby improving the toughness of the iron. "

Zulong's heart immediately became excited!

Sure enough!

Qin Mu's another technology beyond the times!
Another technology beyond the times after movable type printing, saltpeter ice making, and papermaking!
Now his method of making ironware can directly upgrade the ironware to the level of killing the bronzeware in seconds!

What is this ability?
Zu Long looked at Qin Mu, and for some reason, that immature head was always full of whimsical ideas beyond anyone's expectations.

Any one of his technologies is enough to bring about earth-shaking changes in Daqin!
Before the appearance of Qin Mu, this level of technology was all painstakingly researched by countless sages.

It takes generations to succeed.

But Qin Mu, as if he didn't want money, threw out these technologies crazily!

No, the saltpeter ice method is just to enhance some personal enjoyment.

As for movable type printing and papermaking, it is a century-old project, and it needs to be effective slowly.

And the iron casting technology can indeed immediately improve the combat capability of the Qin army!

He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked calmly: .

"What method did you use to create this?"

Qin Mu smiled mysteriously and said: .

"Father, I can't tell you this."

Zu Long said in surprise: .

"why not?"

Qin Mu sighed pretentiously, and said: .

"Father, it's fine to tell you about the imperial examinations and so on.

After all, those things are slow to take effect.

When they really played a role, I succeeded in rebelling.

But the casting method of this ironware is different.

If I tell you, I'm afraid you will tell Emperor Shihuang tomorrow.

The royal craftsmen wanted to learn this method very quickly.

Maybe the equipment of the Daqin army will be updated soon.

Don't you forget, I have been preparing to rebel?
Ironware is one of my trump cards.

If the Qin army also used iron, wouldn't it be more difficult for me to rebel? "

For some reason, Zu Long felt a sense of loss.

I have always hoped that Qin Mu could become the prince and command Daqin.

But Qin Mu's mind was full of rebellion after his death.

Is it really that attractive to compete in the Central Plains?
Zu Long thought of his own experience of unifying the six countries...

Well, it is indeed attractive.

but……

I could be your daddy?
Zulong didn't think about anything now, he just wanted the Dragon Guard to come back with the news he was looking forward to.

After thinking of many ways, Qin Mu just refused to let go.

In the end, Zulong sighed helplessly: .

"Mu'er, do you know why I want this method of iron making?"

Qin Mu rolled his eyes: .

"It's for Daqin again?"

Zulong looked at the southeast fixedly, and said solemnly: .

"Baiyue invaded the border of our Great Qin, plundered tens of thousands of people, and slaughtered four cities."
