In the following days, Li Yu began to concentrate on creating "magic tools" or "seal objects".

Facts have proved that the short knife of "Hu Po" was just the result of the character explosion. After the connection failed four times, Li Yu finally created another magic weapon, which can be said to be very touching.

A pair of wolf leather boots is the second "magic weapon" made by Li Yu. The raw materials are derived from a generous wolf demon, and their functions are "silent" and "like walking on flat ground".

Silently: no footsteps are made while walking; like walking on flat ground: it can still maintain high speed movement in harsh terrain.

The side effect is that the feet wearing shoes cannot sweat, so if they wear them for too long, they will be "scalded" due to the high temperature of their feet. However, for Li Yu, who has amazing fire resistance, this side effect can basically be ignored.

Although it has no offensive ability, it is also a good auxiliary magic weapon, especially in the mountains and forests of Qianzhongdao, which can play a lot of roles, at least Li Yu will no longer be said to be the young master who is "dragged" by the little loli Feishe every day.

At the speed of Flying Squirrel and Winnie, they could run back and forth with all their might, but Li Yu was still trekking in the jungle halfway.

There is no way, the "Melting Gold Iron Sculpture Hand" technique is basically concentrated on the improvement of strength, physique, and fire resistance. It has little impact on speed, and Li Yu has never learned any light skills, which has led to the movement speed being criticized.

The reason why Li Yu did not continue to focus on creating magic weapons was, on the one hand, his "Qi" had reached the median level of C without realizing it.

On the other hand:

"We have no money."

In the house where the three of them lived, Li Yu, who was sitting in front of the wooden table, supported the table with both hands and spoke with a serious expression.

"···Young Master, do you want to share half of my chicken legs with you?"

The blond little loli flying squirrel holding a roast chicken and nibbled with it for a few seconds, then pulled off a chicken leg and handed it to Li Yu reluctantly.

"I appreciate your kindness, but this thing is not even a drop in the bucket."

Li Yu waved his hand. In fact, except for his poor life when he first traveled through time, he, Winnie, and Feishe had never lacked money:

In that tomb, he received hundreds of copper coins from the supplies of the soldiers and bandits, and later helped the Great Zhou court defeat the mourning scholars and the rebellious armored captain. In addition to sending books from craftsmen, the star officer of Qingluosi also had a reward of 10 taels of silver.

Don’t underestimate 10 taels of silver. Under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty, one tael of silver is equal to 1,000 coins of copper coins.

A dou of rice costs 15 meters, and a stone costs 150 meters, which is about 160 jin. The purchasing power of 10 taels of silver is nearly tens of thousands of kilograms of rice, which is 3 to 4 tons of grain, which is enough for a family of four to eat for 5 or 6 years!

For ordinary people, it is naturally a huge sum of money. In addition, the materials, money, etc. that Li Yu and others later harvested later, the three of them can be said to be rich people.

but--

"The craftsmanship is indeed a money-burning profession,"

Li Yu sighed. If you just forge ordinary swords, the cost is not high. However, the various raw materials for making magic weapons: top-quality iron, steel powder... The opening is hundreds or thousands of text. In addition, four failures of "inlay" almost hollowed out their accumulation during this period.

In comparison, the consumption of flying squirrels and big fish and meat is not worth mentioning at all!

"If this 'hupe' is sold,"

Winnie put the hideous short knife with a chilling chill on the table.

"It should be able to get a lot of money."

"No, the reason I want to forge magic weapons is to improve everyone's combat effectiveness. If I take out the finished magic weapons and sell them, what's left?"

Forging proficiency?

This is not nonsense!

"Don't worry, I already have a plan."

Li Yu waved his hand to reject Winnie's suggestion and looked at the blond loli who was eating beside him.

"Flying Squirrel, you also need to work hard to improve yourself. My next money-making plan requires transportation and flight capabilities."

"Why?"

Faced with Li Yu's request, the blonde loli was shocked.

"Young Master, I have just been promoted to the middle level of C. How could I advance again so quickly?"

And when the next bloodline awakens, who knows what abilities will appear? It is too difficult to be a human being if you have to awaken your flying ability... No, it is difficult to be a monster.

"What's wrong with just advancing?"

Li Yu knocked on the table with a look of regret.

"When I met you, I was not even a warrior. Isn't it now a mid-level position in C?"

···

Hearing this, the blonde loli was stunned and felt that the roast chicken in her hand was no longer fragrant.

When they first met, Li Yu was still an ordinary person with qi and blood. Now he had caught up with the flying mouse and stepped into the "C-level middle position". He also created a bunch of powerful props and magic weapons, and his strength could be fully hanged on her, forcing the blonde little loli to admit that humans are worthy of being the spirit of all things.

"Forget it, I'll find a way."

Li Yu didn't really expect the flying squirrel to awaken his "flying" ability immediately, so he would prepare his "make money-making career" first.

———

I believe that any time traveler will consider how to make money by using one's own advantages.

Traveling through time, the seniors made glass, made soap, made noodles, sold candied haws, or copied poems and published books, fooled the powerful, etc., but these ways were not realistic for Li Yu, because this is Qianzhong Road, which is famous for its poverty!

The entire Leyuan County once had nearly a thousand people, and 99% were farmers.

Farming for a lifetime is their life, and they only need some silk and hemp.

Glass soap is meaningless to them. Only larger towns have some demand for these. This is also the reason why Li Yu asked Feishi to quickly awaken his "flying ability".

As for poetry, songs and essays, County Magistrate Li, the only "cultural person" here, now he is holding a long sword every day to train the "village heroes" he recruits, preparing to rebuild the armed forces of Leyuan County.

Besides, he has no money: Leyuan County’s “tax” this year is not enough. Even if he can survive the difficulties successfully, he is smart and capable.

So Li Yu could only think of a solution from himself.

He is following the "craftsmanship" and theoretically, as long as he builds a hoe, he can sell for about 50 yuan; if he builds an ordinary sword, he can sell for 75 to 100 yuan; if he uses iron to create a "Hundred Forging" fine product with patterns, the price will immediately soar to more than 2,000 yuan, which is 2 taels of silver.

If it is a magic weapon with magical abilities similar to "Hupo", the price will start with double-digit silver.

Therefore, in this world, blacksmith is definitely a "noble profession" in the eyes of ordinary people.

but--

Li Yu has already experienced the success rate of magic weapons in person, which is comparable to playing games and drawing cards in his previous life. And ordinary swords... Just ordinary blacksmiths can make money in this way. As a "dignified time traveler", Li Yu can only do the same thing, which is too downplayed.

So during this period, after Li Yu asked Li County Magistrate about various prices in other places, he locked in a product that was most suitable for making money:

Needle!

"Nite, isn't that thing only 5 min each?"

The blonde loli Feishu was full of doubts about Li Yu's plan.

"And it's very troublesome to make a needle. Master, do you have to spend your time on the iron grinding rod in the future?"

Grinding iron rods into embroidery needles is not a proverb in this world, but a real way of production: this is how ordinary people use needles.

"Hmph, I'm not an ordinary person, your young master."

Although this world has extraordinary power, metal processing is still on the blacksmith shop's "hammering, forging and grinding".

If you ask about metal processing, time travelers may think of mechanized large-scale production, turning, milling, planing, grinding and casting and forging stamping.

This gave Li Yu a huge room for play: Although his "Gold-melting Iron Sculpture Hand" could not be used to melt troops with empty hands, and even use the flames of both palms, after he broke through to the middle of C, the hot "Qi" could completely soften the metal, making the metal as soft as plasticine in a short period of time.

"Look, this is the metal brushing workshop I made!"

Next, Li Yu brought the two of them to the room where the "money-making" machine he prepared was located.

Flywheel, lever, gear... The three metal mechanical platforms are lined up in a row, full of the beauty of technology and machinery.

But not to mention that the flying mouse was confused, even the eyes of Winnie flashed in her eyes. They had the seven orifices of mechanical engineering, but they had no idea about the six orifices!

This made Li Yu, who made a wire drawing machine based on the structure diagram on the phone, unable to help but curl his lips. Brother has such strong hands-on ability, but no one can appreciate it. It's a pity, it's a pity.

Back to the topic, metal wire drawing, as the name suggests, is a technical processing method that forces metal through the mold under the action of external forces, compresses the metal cross-sectional area and obtains the required cross-sectional area shape and size. It is called the metal wire drawing process.

"This set of machinery can not only draw wires, but also make thin knives and other items."

While saying that, Li Yu began to direct the two to help:

To make a needle, you need to forge the steel ingot into a flat steel bar, then draw with the iron bar, and finally cut and punch the hole. Therefore, in theory, it is necessary to have a forging machine, a wire drawing machine and a punching machine.

The forging machine is a forging hammer with automatic forging. Originally, this should be the machine that needs the most technological content, because it is necessary to forge the steel ingot into steel bars. However, with Li Yu's "melting gold iron smelting hand", you only need to use the ability to soften the metal while shaking the flywheel, so that the forging hammer can continue to rise and fall, and it is enough to forge it by self-weight.

Then the steel that was beaten into strips was repeatedly drawn through a wire drawing machine that was also hand-cranked by a flying squirrel, and turned into a steel wire with a diameter of 0.5 mm. However, when entering the third machine: the punching machine!

In fact, it is just a simple slashing knife and a slashing knife. The slashing knife that should have been driven by mechanical force was directly held by Winnie in her hand. It has a blunt blade on one side and is combined with a slashing table with a length control interceptor bar to ensure that with one knife, the length of the cut-out thin steel wire is basically the same, forming a single-ended flat needle nose with unopened holes.

In this way, in a series of dense forging sounds of clanging, clanging, clanging, and the crisp sound of rhythmic steel wire being cut off, the steel ingots as raw materials quickly disappeared and turned into a pile of short steel wires with exactly the same length. In this regard, Feishe's evaluation is:

“It’s so fun~~”

···

"This is not a play, it's a 'swipe'."

Picking up a steel wire, Li Yu shook the thing in his hand at Feishe.

"Next, just make a few pedal grinding wheels, and then hire people from Leyuan County to sharpen one end of the wire, drill a hole at the other end, and finally after quenching, a needle will be completed."

After saying that, Li Yu pointed to the large amount of steel wires made with the blessing of his "gold-melting iron smelting hand".

"Although a needle is only worth 5 months, it's more than ten million here?"

However, the market in Qianzhongdao is pitifully small, so Li Yu also had to transport these finished products to other places for sale, at least in a city like Qianzhou. If necessary, Li Yu could even attack the "needle and thread market" of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty with his own strength. This is the advantage of time travelers!

"A needle costs 5 cents, and a roasted chicken is only 30 cents. How many chickens do you have to do? ~~"

The flying squirrel looked at the steel wires piled up behind the slashing machine, with only the wine pool and meat forest in his eyes.

No, no, with so much money, it’s okay to eat beef every day!

A little demon who was supposed to be an omnivorous person was about to completely turn into a meat-eating shape.

Industrial assembly line production is indeed the style of the Steam Church.

Winnie's eyes slid past Li Yu. He was always able to come up with a solution to the problem. Is this the power of knowledge?
