Chapter 111 Blacksmith
The discussion of the players finally came down to the development, and it was useless to argue fiercely. The players needed iron tools. Even if they didn't sell them to the outside world, the players still needed to have farm tools first.

The Tana City farm tools that Andrew handed out were not suitable for farming at all. Veteran players also complained that the farm tools were not easy to use at all, and the quality was very poor.

Therefore, it is imperative to have the right tools.

In addition to reclaiming the wasteland, the farmers who went online again began to cut down the mountains, and even some old players also participated.

Because the price of wood purchased by steel factories is not low, of course, thick trees are not accepted, and players can’t get such thick trees, transportation is a big problem, so most of the purchased trees are about 30 years old, Fast growing poplar.

It takes about five or six players to transport a tree to the smelting area. Even for the closest tree, it takes more than two hours for a tree to be felled and transported.

Fortunately, there are more than 300 players who are willing to participate in this event, and they are all newcomers, so there is no shortage of transporters.

What is missing are the tools for felling wood.

There are only five axes in the entire farm, and the cutting speed cannot keep up with the player's transportation speed.

Moreover, the condition of the axes was not very good. After only one morning of felling, two axes were already unusable.

"The blade is sharpened again, can you sharpen it again? Someone has asked someone to buy an ax in the forum, but it will take a while." There are already about forty players waiting to transport the wood, but the cutting progress It can't keep up with the speed of the players' handling at all, which makes several players feel tired.

They were not particularly good at felling trees. Although this job seemed easy, it actually required a lot of skills. On the contrary, it was much easier to carry.

As a result, the cutting speed became even slower, and now the speed has finally increased a little, and the ax broke again.

Even if some of the firewood is left to dry in the smelter, it will not work, because there are not enough axes, and an ax must always be used to dry firewood.

So it can also explain how much Tana City needs iron.

It would take an hour or so to get from the city to the foot of the mountain here. It was impossible for the players to hire a carriage alone, so it would take more time.

Even if they had to run all the way, they had to wait until after lunch, so except for the few players with axes who were still working hard, the rest of the players sat down and prepared to wait for the meal.

"I found a lot of good things." Compendium of Materia Medica also came down from the mountain. Normally, he would not dare to go up the mountain alone, because according to the popular science of old players, there are many wild beasts in the forest that really can eat people. .

Now that there are a group of players around, he became more courageous. Anyway, there were enough people carrying them, and there was no work to do at all, so he ran to the mountain together with two players who planned to be hunters in the future.

The resources on the mountains of Tana City are indeed rich, and the Compendium of Materia Medica has found many useful medicinal materials along the way.

In addition to common Chinese herbal medicines such as Astragalus and Panax notoginseng, he even found two three-leaf ginseng, a large handful of mushrooms, and an entire pumpkin field that was not managed by anyone. It is estimated that some birds ate the pumpkin seeds , so a piece of pumpkin was produced here...

In short, he and the other two carried three full baskets down the mountain, which can be said to be full.

At this time, some players have already started cooking at the foot of the mountain. Andrew distributed two pieces of bread to each of the players, so that they can have a full lunch and dinner, but there are no vegetables or other things. After all, there are usually no special people in the farm. Cook.

But how can players be willing to do so?

They had already prepared some wild vegetables. Tana City was like spring all year round, with rich products, and wild vegetables could be seen everywhere.

It's just because the average age of people in Tana City is not high, and most people are trapped in the factory area day after day, and they don't know the benefits of wild vegetables at all.

After blanching these wild vegetables, put a little salt and grind them for two days. The taste is quite good, and the players did not miss the pumpkins picked by the Compendium of Materia Medica.

Bowls of pumpkin porridge are full of fragrance, and then dipped in bread, with a little pickled wild vegetables, the players' meal is quite nutritious.

When they were almost finished eating, a new ax was finally delivered.

It was not the player who came to deliver the ax, but an apprentice from the blacksmith shop named Rhett Wynn.

He has been studying in the blacksmith shop for 16 years, but the master doesn't seem to like him, and intends to teach the blacksmith shop to younger apprentices.

Of course, Rhett Wynn doesn't worry about making a living, he has a craft, he can eat wherever he goes, and he can repair the machines in those factories, so he doesn't have to worry about life problems at all.

It's just that I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, so in the name of delivery, I came out to get some air.

The price of an ax in Tana City is not cheap. Now an ax can be sold for 100 Tana coins, which is definitely a huge sum of money for ordinary people. This thing and weapons are the same price, so if you send 10 of them, then Definitely a big client.

"Sir, this should be the ax you ordered here." It was the first time Rhett saw so many people logging together. It was conceivable that within a month, they would be able to evacuate suitable trees nearby.

This place can be reclaimed soon. According to the rules of Tana City, if the land is reclaimed, the land can be purchased first.

A player shouted quickly, but the language Rhett did not understand, but he knew that these axes could be handed over smoothly.

It turned out that they were all Xiahui people, no wonder they wanted to reclaim the barren hills.

If you live according to the current prices, these outsiders may not be as good as those guys in the factory area.

Because they don't even know how to operate machines, they have no special advantages except that they are a little stronger.

So if you want to find a place to stay, it is indeed better to reclaim a place by yourself as a gathering place.

The players didn't know what he was thinking. The old man Zhong Shan took the ax and distributed it immediately, and then said gratefully: "Thank you for sending these axes, they are exactly what we need, and they look better than our original ones." It's much easier to use."

"That's natural, I built them all by myself." Reid said with a smile, "But it's been a long time since no one has bought things like axes. People prefer to buy parts like nails or screws to assemble things. .”

Seeing that the other party was so talkative, and he was also a mature blacksmith, the old man Zhong Shan started chatting with the other party.

One player was also very discerning. He gave the other party a bowl of pumpkin porridge and a piece of white bread, thanking the other party for coming so far to deliver the axe.
