As if he saw Chaitino's expression, the old blacksmith took out two heavy arrows from a wooden box and threw them on the table with a clang.
"The black one is standard in the military. Don't think I'm robbing you of your money. How can my skills be compared to those of those young boys?!"
The old blacksmith's words revealed the arrogance of a great craftsman. Chaitino picked up the black armor-piercing awl with some doubts and examined it carefully. His eyes immediately lit up.
The appearance is exactly the same as the one I use, but the details are completely different.
They all have three-section angular edges, but the blade in my hand is exquisite and has no burrs at all. The entire arrow has been quenched, and its hardness is definitely much higher than the previous cast arrowheads.
The dark arrow is covered with layers of ladders, and it can be seen that it was made with thousands of forging techniques.
This arrow is worth not only five hundred coins, but one tael of silver!
"Look at the fine workmanship again."
Seeing Chaitino's shocked expression, the old blacksmith couldn't help but show pride on his face, and pointed to the heavy silver arrow on the table.
When I hold Chaitino in my hand, the first thing I feel is that it is heavy, and the second thing is that it is beautiful!
The length and thickness are about the same, but the weight of the finely crafted armor-piercing awl is definitely one and a half times that of the military standard. It doesn't feel like an arrow when held in the hand, but rather feels like stabbing a sword with one hand.
As for the arrowheads, they are very different. They should be made of the same material as the arrow shafts, but compared to the standard arrowheads in the military, the width of the blade is at least twice as large!
"...Uncle, is this an arrowhead or the head of a big yellow crossbow?"
"Isn't this ratio a little too unbalanced?"
Chaitino grinned. This thing can really be used as a one-handed weapon in your hand. The huge three-edged arrow is like a scraper. If you stab it in the body, you will die!
"You know ball!"
The old blacksmith stared, and while banging the iron, he said in a humming voice:
"The arm strength that can shoot such a heavy arrow is absolutely amazing. The power of this armor-breaking cone may not be a little less than that of the big yellow crossbow!"
"Although the proportions may seem uncoordinated, the center of gravity has not changed. Although the arrow is large, it is only three points heavier than the standard."
"As for the material, you can't find much in Dahua."
He was so awesome. Chaitino took a breath. The man I met today was an absolutely arrogant person, but someone with a good craftsmanship should be arrogant.
"Don't you believe it, you can tell by breaking the arrow shaft."
Looking at the uncle's confident expression, Chai Tiannuo raised his eyebrows. Could it be that he was so hard that he could withstand a thousand pounds of force?
In this way, you really need to experience it!
"Let's go~"
His arms suddenly exerted force, the strength was far more than a thousand pounds!
"...Uncle, you don't need me to compensate, do you?"
Seeing the large round armor-piercing awl in his hand, Chaitino couldn't help but tremble three times. The hardness was one and a half times harder than the ordinary armor-piercing awl, which was really surprising.
But the thin arrow shaft could not withstand his own brute force.
"...Looking at your average stature, I never thought you were a strong man!"
The old blacksmith put down his hammer, shook his head and said:
"You don't need to pay for it. It's not broken anyway, so let go."
Chaitino let go and was surprised to find that the arrow shaft, which had been bent into a large circle, slowly returned to straightness.
Either it bounces back all of a sudden, or it slowly returns to normal.
"This is awesome, uncle, what kind of material is this?"
Chai Tiannuo was really shocked. He vaguely remembered that there was a kind of memory metal in his previous life, which could slowly recover after deformation. He never thought that he would see the same thing here!
"There are many exotic stones in the northwest. I used ancient methods to extract their essence. A Taoist told me that this is called Star Silver!"
"Uncle, your five taels of silver are really not expensive!"
Chai Tiannuo sighed and said that such a divine item only costs five taels of silver. Seriously speaking, it is really cheap.
"Although my price is high, my workmanship is superb and I am absolutely honest!"
The old blacksmith raised his head and said proudly, this is a craftsman who has strong confidence in his craft.
"I ordered thirty-six pieces of exquisite craftsmanship. When can they be shipped?"
Chai Tiannuo directly slapped the two hundred taels of silver notes on the table. The exquisite armor-piercing awl was definitely worth the money, but the tip of the arrow was a bit too big, and I didn't know if the quiver could be released.
"It can be released now!"
The old blacksmith bent down and took out a quiver from the wooden box, then threw it onto the table:
"Add the one on the table, it's exactly thirty-six, order the goods!"
After saying that, the old blacksmith picked up the banknote and checked it with a smile on his face. The business is so good today that it can equal the harvest for several years!
"... Ready-made goods?"
"Nonsense, do you think Star Silver is easy to get?"
"No matter how powerful the fire is, this thing cannot be melted. I slowly dissolved it with green vitriol oil. I made a total of thirty-six of them. You are lucky!"
Chaitino grinned, and he knew from the dust on the quiver that probably no one would buy this thing. Apart from a powerful monster like himself, who could use it?
"By the way, one hundred and eighty taels, I still need to find you twenty taels?"
The old blacksmith frowned, and Chaitino quickly waved his hand:
"Two hundred taels is enough. The exquisite armor-breaking cone is definitely worth the price."
"Bullshit, I never take advantage of someone else's money!"
The old blacksmith glared, and Chai Tiannuo spread his hands helplessly. The old man's craftsmanship was top-notch, but with his temperament, he was also top-notch.
"Yes, I'll give you the standard one, so the price is about the same, right?"
The old blacksmith bent down again and threw another quiver onto the table with a bang. Inside were thirty-six black armor-piercing awls.
Chai Tiannuo nodded repeatedly and said happily:
"That's enough, absolutely enough. Counting the two quivers, it's exactly two hundred."
"shit!"
"The quiver is a match. I never take advantage of someone else!"
"..."
Chai Tiannuo grinned. He had heard of such creatures as donkeys for a long time, but he had only heard about them but never seen them. Today, he really saw them.
"What should I do? All my money has been given to my unsatisfied family, and I don't have a single fortune."
The old blacksmith frowned, and Chaitino also frowned. Where should I find replacement for these two taels of silver in the blacksmith shop?
The sentence just now flashed through his mind. Chaitino couldn't help but trembled, and asked in a somewhat impatient voice:
"Uncle, did you just say that the silver flame of stars does not melt?"
"Well, it's not that it's infusible. After all, when the meteorite falls, there are melting marks on it. It may be that the ordinary fire is not warm enough."
The old blacksmith scratched his head. Although he had a bad temper, he had something to say.
"Please wait!"
Chai Tiannuo ran away in a panic, and within a quarter of an hour, he ran back in a panic.
Putting the heavy Minghong on the table, Chai Tiannuo asked in a hopeful voice:
"Uncle, do you think it's possible to repair this knife?"
"What's so difficult about this? It's only two taels of silver!"
Picking up the heavy Minghong, the old blacksmith stuffed it into the furnace with a smile on his face. It was a big deal, and it could be repaired quickly after it was softened.
"Uncle, this knife cannot be melted by fire."
After burning for half an hour, the old blacksmith was convinced. This thing was just like the star silver, it really couldn't be melted by fire.
"More money, I'll try it with green vitriol oil!"
With a bang, Chai Tiannuo threw half the bag of big stuff in and smiled at the old blacksmith:
