Douluo: My dear grandson, come quickly, Grandpa, I am Titled Douluo

Chapter 99 I know it is difficult to carve rifling, but what about adding the gold of living creatures?
After hearing Amori's explanation, Wu Bing's wife Ting'er put aside her grudge and saluted Ye Tian.

For this.

Ye Tian didn't say much.

He just looked at Wu Bing and said:

"I heard that you are a very skilled blacksmith, would you like to help me?"

Wu Bing glanced at Amori next to him, and then at his wife.

He arched his hands and said:
"I am willing to do my best for the Lord of the City."

It's not a matter of choice at all.

Wu Bing knew that he did not have much choice.

Hearing this, Amori smiled and patted Wu Bing on the shoulder.

"The city lord is someone who is truly willing to sacrifice for the common people. You stayed in the city and never went out."

"So you don't know that now, whether it's a town or a remote village, all the common people are assigned land, and they praise the city lord very much."

"You can help the Lord City Lord. I feel honored to have you as my apprentice."

Wu Bing was startled. This was the first time that his master had praised a person so much.

Wu Bing indeed knew very little about Ye Tian, ​​but a while ago, he heard from his neighbors that Sotuo City was occupied by rebels, and the money was quickly hidden.

But Wu Bing chose to remain indifferent.

Because apart from a set of cheap blacksmithing equipment, he had no other property to hide.

Wu Bing always held an unsupportive attitude towards the rebels.

Living under the rule of aristocratic gentlemen would mean being squeezed at most.

Participating in the rebellion will not only bring disaster to the lives of an area.

It will also displace thousands of people.

Wu Bing originally wanted to be a stable ordinary person in this troubled world and take care of his mother throughout his life.

Unexpectedly, one day, he was personally visited by the leader of the rebellion.

It's true that I'm a bit frustrated.

But to say it was sad would not be called sad.

"Sir, do you want a villain to build a magical weapon?" Wu Bing asked tentatively.

He believed that his blacksmithing skills were second to none in the Soto City area, except for the mysterious 'Tang Yin'.

Now that Ye Tian is rebelling, finding him a blacksmith is all he can do.

"Of course!" Ye Tian smiled calmly.

He handed a thick stack of firearms blueprints to Wu Bing and asked, "Can you forge these things?"

Wu Bing took it doubtfully and looked at it carefully.

Then I was attracted by the exquisite components above. Each extremely minute component was marked with dense dimensions.

And these dimensions form a strange round long-barreled tool.

However, Wu Bing couldn't tell clearly whether this was a tool or a weapon.

But this is definitely a challenge in his career as a craftsman.

"It's very difficult, especially this seamless steel pipe. Even Gengxin City can't forge it directly. We can only use a hammer to dig it out by hand while the iron is still hot."

Wu Bing said frankly, and then continued to look at the drawings, nodding and shaking his head.

Ye Tian was not in a hurry, he just sat aside and drank tea slowly with Amori.

Half an hour later, Wu Bing came forward and gave the answer.

"Lord City Lord, the other parts are easy to say. Although they are a bit more difficult, you can forge them all with a little patience."

"Just carving 'rifling' into the seamless steel tube..."

Speaking of this, Wu Bing shook his head.

“Just forging seamless steel pipes is very difficult.”

"Forgive me that I don't have the skills to carve out this rifling."

Carving rifling into a steel tube that is about as thin as your little finger is like carving patterns on tofu.

Wu Bing's forging skills can be described as proficient, but they are far from reaching the level of perfection.

Hearing this, Ye Tian smiled.

He had already thought of this.

After all, the technology tree of rifling was only lighted up after the Industrial Revolution.To solve this problem perfectly, you must have relatively precise machine tools.

And machine tools, especially precision machine tools, can't be completed by just a few rubs and a few blacksmiths.

"I know this is difficult to do, but what about adding this piece of metal?"

Ye Tian took out a piece of bright metal from the storage space.

It exudes the breath of life.

"This is..." Amory breathed a little tight.

"The gold of living beings!" Wu Bing blurted out.

The gold of living beings, forged weapons!
The carving knife forged from the gold of living beings can cut iron like tofu!
Wu Bing stared at the gold of life, feeling suffocated.

This thing is a blacksmith's dream.

Available but not available.

Wu Bing bowed and said: "If there is such help, I promise to complete the mission."

"Don't talk so much. The blueprint I gave you is called the 98K rifle. If you want to exert its power, you can't forge just one rifle, but thousands, ten thousand, or one hundred thousand."

Of course, the rifle designed by Ye Tian himself is not as excellent as the 98K in Blue Star's history.

It doesn't even have a bullet clip, and can only load one bullet at a time, which is only better than a flintlock musket.

The reason why it is called 98K is just a coincidence.

"With all due respect." Wu Bing had an upright personality and couldn't hold back his words, so he said directly:
"Sir City Lord, I am the only one in the entire Soto City who can make these forged devices fit together perfectly."

"I'm not bragging, other blacksmiths can't."

Wu Bing looked indifferent.

This is due to a complete understanding of the difficulty of the drawings and confidence in one's own strength.

Ye Tian smiled and said, "So, this is what you need to solve."

"Heishan Town now has a casting factory that can complete rough die-casting of devices."

"Craftsmen can also participate in polishing, but to what extent and how to polish, you need to participate and preside over it."

When Wu Bing heard this, he was in trouble for a while.

Polishing the mold after casting can indeed speed up the forging.

only……

Wu Bing smiled bitterly and said: "Lord City Lord, this... I have never participated in management before, and I have very little experience in polishing molds."

"I just want results." Ye Tian suddenly raised his head and said calmly.

Hearing this, Wu Bing was startled by the tall man in front of him, and his face suddenly turned pale. The power exuded by the man in front of him made him breathe quickly.

"...Yes." Wu Bing bowed.

Ye Tian calmed down and said:

"You can mention how many craftsmen, how much money, how many tools, how much refined iron are needed, but I hope to see weapons in front of me in a month."

Amori took a step forward and encouraged his apprentice at the right time:
"Wu Bing, you should also understand the difficulties faced by the city lord."

"I heard the news that the army from the royal capital is already on the way. There is not much time left for us."

"I understand what Master said."

Wu Bing first saluted Amori, then gritted his teeth, looked at Ye Tian and said firmly:
"I need one hundred skilled blacksmiths! Five hundred powerful workers! In addition, I have the final say in the mold factory!"

"Anyone can do it!" Ye Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Wu Bing wouldn't be able to shoulder this responsibility.

Although Ye Tian personally went to the mold factory to roll out the iron, it would definitely be much faster than Wu Bing.

But as the city lord, Ye Tian had to focus his work on institutional construction and military construction.

To light up the military-industrial base, new people must be trained.

A person's energy is, after all, limited.

Fortunately, the cannon is now in full production.

In just one month, with Ye Tian squeezing Snake Spear Douluo, fifty more cannons were produced.

Enough to deal with the threat from Barak.

It would be best if Wu Bing could make firearms before Barak's army arrived.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t make it.
