Li Kuan temporarily slowed down the pace of practice, and then he focused on another matter.
"Mr. Wang, you know so well, do you know if there is a blacksmith shop in Jiangling City that builds weapons?"
The three of Wang Huai already knew Li Kuan's next move, but they were all in the general direction. They were startled at first when they heard: "There is a blacksmith's shop, but what are you going to do?"
"Of course it is to build weapons!" Li Kuan answered naturally. This made Wang Huai and the three of them almost fall to the ground. Wu Jue was also confused by the three of them. It is normal for the blacksmith to build weapons. It is necessary to do so. Surprised
Zhao Qian could not laugh or cry and said, "My son, do you really not know?"
"What do you know?" Li Kuan asked unclearly.
Qian Wu reluctantly said: "Since the Emperor Xian established the Tang Empire, the imperial court strictly prohibited civilians from building weapons. The weapons in the treasury were made by weapons manufacturing institutions specially set up by central and local officials. At the beginning of the first year of the year, Emperor Wu De appointed them as weapons. The supervision continues to this day." Genius remembers Chinese in one second 8/1/z/o/m/
"The weapons built in the weapons surveillance are strictly manufactured in accordance with regulations. Each level of organization shall not cross the boundary. Offenders are accused of treason. Moreover, the specifications, quantity and variety of weapons are strictly regulated. If the civilians build weapons privately, it will be Exterminating the Nine Clans is a capital crime!"
"Master, didn't you wear weapons when you walked the rivers and lakes?" Li Kuan asked in a puzzled way.
Qian Wu smiled bitterly: "I wore ordinary swords when I walked the rivers and lakes at that time, not weapons used in the military. Even if there is a blacksmith shop, no one dares to build heavy weapons. That is a capital crime and no one dares to commit a crime. risk."
Only then did Li Kuan understand that the three of them had misunderstood his words. He was not trying to build heavy weapons such as siege engines, spears, and crossbows, or forging ordinary swords. Besides, he has also seen that some people on the street like to wear swords. This sword will never be forged in government offices. It must be made by the people.
After listening to Li Kuan's explanation, the three people were relieved. They thought that Li Kuan was really building a heavy weapon, and if it was like that, it would be 100% rebellious. If it is an ordinary sword, it can be forged by a master in any smithy, there is only a difference in quality.
"Master, you have been walking on the rivers and lakes for so many years, why don't we go and see together tomorrow?" Li Kuan looked at Qian Wu expectantly, which left the latter with nothing to say, so he nodded and agreed. He wanted to follow Li Kuan. Later, if Li Kuan really has any other ideas, he must stop it.
Wang Huai then added: "If you leave the house tomorrow, find a remote place to take off the mask. The characteristics of your mask are too obvious, it is better to show your true face, on the contrary, other people don’t know you. Identity."
Li Kuan nodded in agreement, and left the house with Qian Wu the next day!
"Master, are you familiar with Jiangling City?" Li Kuan looked at the criss-crossed streets when he left the house. He was at a loss. He used to ride a carriage and was guided by some people. Now he rarely goes out. There is no way to find a specific location if there is navigation.
The roads in Gangneung City are very complicated. In addition to a few main roads, there are also divergent roads. If you are not familiar with the road, it is easy to take the wrong path. Qian Wu walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and his footprints have covered most places. Naturally, Jingzhou Jiangling will not fall.
Qian Wu laughed and said: "Follow me, if you fall, you can't blame me!"
Li Kuan smiled awkwardly, and followed Qian Wu's pace in the roads of Jiangling City. He didn't remember how many roads he crossed or how many forks he took. In short, his destination this time was actually found it.
Looking around, one street is full of blacksmith shops. There are more than 20 large and small in total, and the distances between them are close and far. When the two of them approached, they heard a beating, and there were less than three or five people in each shop, and as many as ten people.
If it is a larger shop, the master will do it by himself, except when the key points are created, the apprentices will do it all the time. On the contrary, in the small blacksmith shop of the shop, the master and the apprentice worked together, and one person pulled the bellows to heat the stove.
It was the twelfth lunar month. When it entered the cold winter, the temperature in the blacksmith shop was too high and the clothes were thinner, and still could not feel the cold. On the contrary, Li Kuan and Qian Wu felt very warm when they walked into a shop near the stove. , It will feel hot after a long time.
Every store has built kitchen knives, spatulas, planers, scissors and other household utensils, as well as plows, rakes, hoes, picks, sickles and other agricultural tools, including door knockers, foam nails, door plugs, etc. , A dazzling array of neatly arranged, allowing guests to observe at will.
Shops with a large number of people will be introduced to the guests by a master, while shops with a small number of people are the guests’ choice, and they can buy one if they like. Because there is really no manpower to help introduce it, if the fire in the stove is extinguished and then reignited, it will take time and effort. It is necessary to maintain a balanced temperature to create the most perfect appliance. The fastest full text of 噺⒏⑴祌 んττρs:/м.χ八㈠zщ.còм/
Li Kuan did not look at the tools that had been built, but observed the process of building. One person took the palm-sized billet to be forged and put it into the furnace, and the other pulled the bellows so that the temperature in the furnace reached a level that could smelt the billet. Temperature, until the iron billet is burnt red, then clamp it out with iron clamps, put it on the anvil, and beat it vigorously with a sledgehammer to remove impurities.
When beating, you need to constantly turn the billet with iron clips, and make changes according to the shape you need to create. This requires extremely rich experience. Not only must the eyesight be accurate, but also hold it in place. This process is usually a master. Or a veteran can do it. The apprentices can only use a sledgehammer to beat them to remove impurities in the billet.
Repeated beats like this dozens of times, and sometimes even hundreds to thousands of times, to create the necessary utensils. As for farm tools or household utensils, there is no need to repeat them. If it is swords and other things, it is really hard work. .
Li Kuan took it very seriously, Qian Wu looked at it casually, as if he was very familiar with this shop, without any restraint. The two stayed all morning before the shop took a break, and Li Kuan looked back.
"Old Xu, don't be unharmed!" Qian Wu said hello to one of them very often without any inconvenience. The man glanced at Qian Wu and replied coldly, "It was good at first. I feel sick all over, I think you should leave as soon as possible so as not to disturb my business!"
Without any embarrassment, Qian Wu continued cheeky and said, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, and we haven't had time to relive the past, so how can we just leave?"
"Don't get close to me, just let it go if you have something!" Xu Tiejiang's expression was full of disgust, as if he didn't want to get involved with Qian Wu.
However, Li Kuan guessed that they knew each other and had a close relationship with the tone and expression of the conversation between the two. In fact, Li Kuan was also a little curious. Qian Wu took him to the blacksmith's shop. There are a handful of more than 20 blacksmith shops here. He chose this most inconspicuous blacksmith shop, even the name of the blacksmith shop. Now it seems that they should be each other. Familiar with will find old friends to help. (End of this chapter)
