We are already at the fourth place in terms of clicks and monthly votes. Brothers of Tang Sect, come on, let us continue to move forward and skyrocket!
"Wulin, here we come!" A tall and strong young man in his twenties greeted Tang Wulin.
"Brother Long." Tang Wulin asked with a smile: "What tasks did the teacher assign today?"
Brother Long smiled and said: "It's quite a lot. You can find out by yourself when you go to your room and take a look. Speaking of which, I'm a little jealous of you kid. How old are you! The workload has already caught up with mine." Forging
It’s hard work. The more you work, the more income you will earn.
Tang Wulin chuckled and said, "How can I compare with you? The teacher still doesn't let me forge large parts."
Brother Long said: "That's to give you a more solid foundation. Okay, you go quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to do any work for two hours today."
There are actually three people in Mangtian's studio, Mangtian, Brother Long and Tang Wulin. Brother Long was originally Mangtian's only apprentice, but after Tang Wulin came here, he became the second one. He was very fond of Mangtian.
The title changed to teacher as early as three years ago when I came here for the second time.
Mang Tian was a very strict teacher with high requirements. But he also taught very seriously. Many times, Tang Wulin felt that he had learned far more here than in the academy.
Everyone has a studio of their own. Mangtian takes some work of forging mecha parts from outside and then assigns them. The simple tasks are handed over to Brother Long and Tang Wulin, and the complicated ones are done by himself.
There will be one dedicated study time every week, and Mang Tian will teach them step by step. The remaining days will be spent completing the tasks assigned by Mang Tian. The more they do, the better they do, and the higher their income will be.
Tang Wulin came to his forging room. Unlike the messy living room outside, his place was very tidy and he had cleaned it up himself.
As expected, some raw materials have already been prepared on the forging table, and there are drawings next to them.
When he first came here, Mang Tian had him knocking on iron blocks for three full months, just to teach him the skills of knocking and moving the iron. He had to knock for two hours every day, which was a really exciting time.
But with continuous practice, Tang Wulin's already strong strength continued to grow, and the small hammer gradually became larger. Three months later, he began to perform some simple metal refining work. One year later,
Start making the simplest parts.
It was not until half a year ago that he was promoted from the original small parts forging to the medium-sized parts forging. Mangtian was even harsher on him than he was on Brother Long. But Tang Wulin seemed to have a special toughness in his character. In the three years since he came here,
I never complained about pain.
After carefully looking at the drawing, he understood what today's work was. Ten joints. These were the ankle joints of the mecha. They were spherical. If it was cast, it would only need two stampings to complete, but for forging
That said, the requirements are much higher.
Forging is also divided into many levels. Generally speaking, there are hundreds of forgings. The so-called hundreds of forgings mean that every part of a part must be forged hundreds of times to complete. Higher levels include thousands of forgings.
The more times it is forged, the fewer impurities there are in the metal. Of course, the metal must be good enough to withstand the pressure brought by Thousand Forgings. As for Thousand Forging parts, Tang Wulin can't make them yet, so he can't.
There are few jobs like this.
Skillfully pressing the button on the forging table, the center of the forging trough cracked, revealing the forge below. Tang Wulin fixed a piece of metal to the slot next to the forging, then pressed the button and sent it into the forging.
.
He started with two shiny black hammers. The size of these two hammers looked similar to the hammers when he first came here for testing. Hammers of this size were most suitable for forging small and medium-sized parts.
However, the pair of hammers in his hands were gifts given to him by Mangtian when he came here for a year. The thousand-forged tungsten steel hammers made by Mangtian himself weighed eighty kilograms each. Ordinary people would think
It was difficult to pick it up. But when it was held in Tang Wulin's hand, it felt like it was nothing.
Under the high temperature of the forge, the metal quickly turned red. Tang Wulin pressed the tungsten steel hammer in his right hand against the slot, and clamped the metal out with the tungsten steel hammer in his left hand from above.
The tungsten steel hammers were quickly swung with both hands, and a series of "ding-dong-dang-dang" sounds were heard, starting the day's forging.
Blacksmithing is a craft, not just a skilled trade. Mang Tian told Tang Wulin when he first started learning that if he wanted to become a qualified blacksmith, he must use his brain and be in the process of striking.
In the process, the texture and characteristics of the metal itself can be judged through the anti-shock and metal changes. Only by mastering these can we truly forge fine products.
Tang Wulin had an excellent understanding of this aspect. He didn't know that when Mangtian gave him this pair of tungsten steel hammers, it meant that he was already an official blacksmith.
The monthly income is not much, so he will save a fixed amount of money, and set aside part of the remaining money for his sister to spend, and give the remaining money to Lang Yue to subsidize the family.
He is only a nine-year-old child now, but his three years of forging career have made him much calmer than his peers in both mentality and character.
For two full hours, when the last part was completed under the violent pounding of the tungsten steel hammer, Tang Wulin also let out a sigh of relief, grabbed the towel next to him and wiped his sweat. He looked at the ten pieces in front of him.
Bright joint parts, a look of satisfaction on his face.
After getting used to forging, he also fell in love with this job. Swinging a hammer and hammering every day was a particularly enjoyable outlet. Moreover, occasionally he would enter a special state during the hammering process.
This state is very strange, as if he resonates with the metal being struck and the hammer in his hand. And whenever this happens, the parts he makes will be particularly excellent, and even Mang Tian's cold and hard character can't stand it.
I can't help but give a few compliments.
"Teacher." When Tang Wulin was about to hand over the work, he found that Mang Tian had arrived at his forging room without knowing it.
Mang Tian first walked to the forging table, looked at his work, nodded, and then handed him a stack of banknotes, "This month's wages. Well done."
"Thank you, teacher." Tang Wulin was overjoyed and hurriedly took the banknote and put it into his arms. His face turned red due to excitement, but he couldn't help but wave his fist vigorously.
Mang Tian looked at him with some confusion, "I didn't see you so happy when I got my salary every month before?"
Tang Wulin's breathing was slightly rapid, and he took a deep breath and said, "Teacher, I have saved enough money to buy souls."
Mang Tian was stunned for a moment, then moved slightly and said, "Are you saying that your martial spirit has reached level ten?"
Tang Wulin nodded, "It should be almost done."
Mang Tian showed a rare smile and said, "Come on."
"Teacher, I'll go back first." Tang Wulin packed the finished parts in the box and ran out happily.
Looking at his back, the smile on Mang Tian's face couldn't help but grow a little thicker, "Finally, this kid looks a bit like a child. It's a pity that his martial spirit is just Blue Silver Grass. No matter what the spirit is, I'm afraid
All..., but this is also my luck. In terms of blacksmithing, this child is talented enough to pass on my legacy."
