Chapter 208: Using sand to make iron armor in batches

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The next day, early in the morning, Liu Yu stood in an open space in the center of the blacksmith camp. There were already more than two thousand craftsmen crowded around him.

Some rocks stretched their necks, and thousands of eyes focused on Liu Yu and Kong Jing in the center.

Kong Jing took an iron trumpet. In this era, these skilled craftsmen had already discovered the basic principles of sound transmission. This kind of iron trumpet could allow Kong Jing's words to be clearly transmitted to each craftsman on this late autumn morning.

In the ears: "You have already shown your tricks. Captain Liu is going to teach you how to cast sand and armor today. Everyone has to learn it from me. If by this time tomorrow, who can't do it yet, hehe, then

There’s no need to keep the guys he eats with anymore!”

Everyone held their breath and stared, not daring to take another breath. After all, Kong Jing had become the living king of hell in their eyes, and every word he said was not a joke.

Liu Yu smiled slightly, picked up a wooden frame in his hand, and said, "Everyone, take a look, what is this?"

Feng Qian took the lead and said: "This is a wooden frame!"

Liu Yu nodded, pointed to the pile of fine sand in front of him, and said, "Then what is this?"

Maoqiu crossed his arms and said, "Isn't this the fine sand we picked up from the river in the morning?"

Liu Yu said seriously: "Very good, everyone can see clearly!"

As he spoke, he pushed the wooden frame into the pile of fine sand, and then pushed it again. The entire wooden frame was suddenly filled with fine sand. Liu Yu dragged it back, and on the flat ground, between the wooden frames

There has been a pile of fine sand like a hillock, full of it.

Liu Yu took out a wooden target and fiddled with it a few times on the wooden frame. He removed the fine sand that was higher than the frame. The remaining sand was flush with the frame. Then, he picked up a wooden bowl on the side.

, which contained thick rice soup, and was poured onto the box of sand.

The surrounding servants began to talk among themselves: "Captain Liu, what are you doing? What are these fine sands framed for?"

"It looks like I want to get a whole frame of sand."

"Idiot, what a whole box of sand. Liu Duizheng must have made the strongest stone, probably for grinding armor pieces."

"Stone? How can I make a stone?"

"You don't understand. Our family used to build city walls. The city bricks were made like this. We poured glutinous rice juice on them and the entire wooden frame was fixed quickly."

“We all know how to burn sand to make bricks, or burn clay to make bricks, but what do we need a wooden frame for?”

"Probably, it's probably about to take shape. Hey, I'm not Liu Duizheng. If you ask me what I do, just ask me."

In the midst of everyone's discussion, the sand in the entire wooden frame in front of Liu Yu had gradually solidified. He picked up the wooden frame and shook it in the air a few times.

Almost all the sand was missing. He nodded with satisfaction: "This rice soup is really good. This is the key to turning sand. Don't cut corners. Otherwise, if you can't fix this frame of sand, all your efforts will be wasted!"

All the servants and craftsmen said in unison: "No!"

Liu Yu nodded, and followed the same method, making another frame of sand, pouring it with rice soup, and fixing it into a whole block of sand. The two frames of fine sand began to emit white light under the sunlight.

, just like the rippling riverside.

After Liu Yu finished doing this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, took out ten pieces of armor from his arms, took out one piece, and raised it high in the air: "Everyone, what is this?"

"The fine steel armor piece, the one we make every day!"

Liu Yu smiled and said: "Okay, today I will teach you a way so that you don't have to manually build these armor pieces in the future!"

As he spoke, he placed the ten armor pieces in the fine sand frame respectively, facing down. The ten armor pieces sank into the fine sand at once, leaving only half of them protruding outside.

Liu Yu picked up another frame of fine sand and covered it from above. The two sand frames were brought together like this, leaving only a slight gap outside.

Liu Yu took down the two sand frames and took out ten nail pieces. He saw that ten marks had been left on the two sand frames, each half an nail leaf deep, and the shapes on the nail leaves were

, the size, and even the hole left for stringing the rope are exactly the same as the real armor piece.

Maoqiu understood. He stood up immediately without crossing his arms. He pointed at the two frames and said: "Here, is this a mold? Print the shape of the nail pieces on the sand frame, and then directly

Pour iron juice into it?"

Liu Yu smiled and nodded, picked up the two sand frames, took out a small knife from his arms, and with just one stroke, he drew a thin line in the nail pit on the edge.

hole until the edge of the frame, and he followed the same pattern and drew such a thin line on the edge of each armor plate.

Now even Feng Qian knew: "Team Liu left a channel when pouring the steel juice. It's really amazing, so amazing. The clay and fine sand can withstand the heat and will not deform, while the steel

Pour the juice in, just like we usually use a crucible to hold steel juice. Once it solidifies, it will become the fixed shape, that is, it will become the shape of ten armor plates!"

Liu Yu nodded and said seriously: "This is the sanding method. The fine sand or clay in the two wooden frames can be fixed and shaped after pouring rice juice. From now on, just pour iron juice. This method is used.

, if you make a mold of thirty nail leaves, you can make thirty nail pieces at one time. In the past, it took you ten days and a half to make the nail pieces, but it only takes half an hour to make them.

All that's left is sanding, rust removal, and polishing."

All the craftsmen and servants stood up with admiration on their faces. These people had heard of Liu Yu's reputation before, but when they saw it with their own eyes today, they realized that this man was not only unparalleled in martial arts, but also extremely talented. He only came to this blacksmith camp.

One day, I thought of a wonderful method that none of them had thought of. Why can't everyone be amazed?

"Liu Duizheng, you are so powerful. Where did you learn this trick?"

"Does Liu Duizheng still need to learn? He is like a star in the sky descending to earth!"

"That's right, I, Lao Hei, have surrendered today, Liu Duizheng, I will do whatever you want me to do from now on."

Kong Jing curled up his lips and his face darkened: "Okay, listen to me. From now on, 1,500 people will make iron juice, 1,000 people will make molds, and 500 people will polish it."

Armor leaves, this month, I will make 50,000 armor leaves every day, which is to equip a thousand pairs of armor. If anyone is lazy and slippery, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

At this point, he suddenly smiled: "If you do a good job every day, add an extra steamed bun to every dinner! When the task is completed at the end of the month, I'll treat everyone to a drink!"
