    The night is already dark, but everyone’s eyes are shining like pearls in the night.

    Zhang Hao crossed his arms and stood aside quietly watching - the first step was perfect!

    The black iron forged piece by piece was placed in front of Zhang Hao, Zhang Shengde and Zhang Shengye.

    “The basic purity is 93%, and after forging it can basically reach 95%.”

    "Purity 95%, reward 1 piece of spiritual knowledge."

    "The purity is 96%. Reward 3 spiritual stones."

    "The purity is 94%go back and continue forging."

    "The purity is 97%. Reward 6 spiritual stones."

    "Purity 96%"

    The black iron of different purity was divided into categories, and several hills quickly rose up.  But at this time, Zhang Shengde and Zhang Shengye looked calm, or in other words, numb.

    The craftsmen were very excited, they created miracles, and the rewards were generous.

    Zhang Shengye walked around the black iron for several times, and suddenly became excited again: "The value of these black irons is enough to buy half the town!"

    Zhang Shengde was excited but did not lose his sense: "I'm afraid it will bring us disaster!"

    Zhang Shengye calmed down instantly.

    Zhang Hao is still a little confused: "Didn't I say that the reserves of black iron are very rich and everyone can get involved? The total amount of black iron at the moment is only three thousand kilograms."

    Zhang Sheng pulled Zhang Hao and introduced him in detail.

    Let’s talk about currency first: low-grade spiritual stones, medium-grade spiritual stones, and high-grade spiritual stones, all three are based on base 100.

    A pound of black iron with a purity of 60% can be cast into 1,000 black iron coins; two iron coins can buy about a pound of brown rice.

    A pound of black iron with a purity of 60% is worth 1 piece of low-grade spiritual stone.

    A pound of black iron with a purity of 70% is worth 5 low-grade spiritual stones.

    A pound of black iron with a purity of 80% requires "at least" 20 low-grade spiritual stones.

    When the purity of black iron exceeds 80%, the price will increase by at least 10 spiritual stones for each point of purity improvement.

    ??????????? Since dark iron with a purity of 90% can be used to refine magic weapons, it only accepts the price of mid-grade spiritual stones, which is at least 10 pieces of mid-grade spiritual stones; dark iron with a purity of 96% is worth at least 70 middle-grade spiritual stones!

    The value of black iron with 96% purity is at least 7,000 times that of 60% purity; if the price fluctuates slightly, it may be tens of thousands of times!

    So, this small pile of black iron now is the real mountain of wealth!  Three thousand kilograms of black iron, worth at least 21 million spiritual stones!

    Zhang Shengde turned around and shouted: "Everyone, whether they are guards or craftsmen, will be rewarded with two pieces of low-grade spiritual stones each. Those who participate in the smelting and forging of black iron will receive two more pieces.

    When Xuantie is sold in the future, everyone will rise!  salary!  water!  "

    "Oh" The craftsmen and guards jumped up excitedly.

    "It's time to leave. Go and do whatever you need to do."

    Everyone dispersed in a hurry and started to get busy excitedly.

    When there were only Zhang Hao, Zhang Shengde, and Zhang Shengye, Zhang Hao couldn't help but ask: "Dad, second uncle, won't these craftsmen leak the secrets?"

    Zhang Shengye smiled: "Don't worry, everyone here has been screened at all levels and has sworn a poisonous oath. But if the secret is leaked, the whole family will suffer."

    "AhIsn't thistoo harsh?" Zhang Hao was surprised.

    Zhang Shengye smiled: "This is actually protection. If not, someone would secretly kidnap their family members and threaten them.

    And the entire Fertile Continent is doing this.  "

    "That's it." Zhang Hao suddenly realized.

    Different worlds have different rules, and I need to update my concepts.

    Zhang Shengde stared at Zhang Hao with burning eyes: "Can you tell me about smelting black iron?"

    "Dad, second uncle, this is what I just thought: the main impurity of black iron is iron, and iron will rust. There must be something in the air that can cause the change of iron. So I tried to pass the air into the iron  In the water, a fluke worked.

    Those rising gray-brown smoke must be rust.  "

    Zhang Shengde looked at Zhang Hao for a while before nodding: "Very good association ability."

    "Dad, my mind is particularly sharp now."

    Zhang Shengye smiled and said: "Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. The Qian family shot themselves in the foot this time!

    "Little mouse, how do you think we should deal with the money family?"  "

    "Second uncle, I think that after the Qian family got new technology, they must have invested and transformed it on a large scale, just to make it a blockbuster.

    We must also seize the time to transform and produce a large amount of black iron.

    Waiting for the Qian family to be ready?When it becomes a blockbuster, let's be a companion.  "

    "Companionship? This is a good idea! I will send people to keep an eye on the Qian family!" Murderous intent suddenly broke out on Zhang Shengde's face.  The Qian family has suffered a lot during this period of time, and this revenge must be repaid twice as much!

    Zhang Hao said again: "Dad, second uncle, I have another idea."

    Zhang Shengye was curious: "Little mouse, what do you think?"

    Zhang Hao opened his mouth and said: "Sell low-level and mid-level magic weapons in large quantities and at low prices! Hmm I think it would be better to use the word 'sell'."

    "Tell me about it," Zhang Shengde said.

    "Selling magic weapons is obviously more profitable than selling black iron; we have enough room to reduce prices, and we can engage in price wars and seize the market."

    "Heh" Zhang Shengde smiled, touched Zhang Hao's head, and said sincerely: "It's a good idea. But it's too urgent. We should sell black iron in large quantities for the time being."

    "Why?" Zhang Hao asked.

    “Because… we still need to unite some ‘friends’ to open up the situation.

    You can’t eat alone until you are strong enough!

    Besides, we also lack the craftsmen needed to refine magic weapons and magic weapons!  "

    Zhang Hao understands: Enter the village quietly, no gunmen~~~

    In the end, Zhang Shengde made a decision: use good black iron to arm the family; the maximum for selling to external parties should not exceed 86%.

    Crossbows, arrows, weapons, etc. need to be replaced and replenished in large quantities. The arrows and blades are covered with a layer of high-purity black iron to increase the armor-breaking ability.

    Zhang Shengde is in charge of the armed forces, Zhang Shengye is in charge of the mine, and Zhang Hao is a temporary guest engineer!

    By the time dawn comes, the craftsmen can directly refine black iron with a purity of 70% to 86%, eliminating the need for forging in the later stages.

    At Zhang Hao's request, the iron ingots were poured into a square foot and a half (half a meter), and they were built up like city bricks.

    “ Confirming that the craftsmen have mastered the skills, Zhang Hao found the craftsman Huang Mingshan to learn about the fan.

    To be honest, Zhang Hao was surprised and happy when he saw the fan before.

    If you want to develop industry, what is the first factor?

    Motivation!

    Artificial power!

    ? Artificial power that is no longer bound by nature, can liberate human hands, can be controlled and repeatedly manufactured!

    The industrial revolution in another world began not so much with the steam engine as with artificial power.

    Huang Mingshan is very reserved, with a smoky look on his face, and his snow-white teeth can only be seen when he smiles innocently from time to time.

    "Sit down, don't be restrained."

    "Yes, yes, yes." Huang Mingshan sat down carefully, only half sitting on the chair gently, put his hands on his thighs, bent down slightly and lowered his head.

    Zhang Hao smiled gently, took out ten low-grade spiritual stones and put them on the table: "Huang Mingshan, I will ask you a few questions about the fan. If you answer them, these spiritual stones will be yours."

    Huang Mingshan calmed down instantly and stared at the spirit stone with burning eyes.  Ten pieces of low-grade spiritual stones are almost equivalent to Huang Mingshan's net income in the past six months.  Now, they lie quietly in front of you, within reach.

    Zhang Hao pulled out a note and asked questions one by one, and Huang Mingshan also answered them one by one.

    The fan is driven by spiritual stones. A one-inch low-grade spiritual stone can keep the fan running continuously for half a day.

    In everyone’s perception, this price is a bit high – just a blow of wind costs 60 spiritual stones a month!  Too luxurious.  Generally, a bellows is sufficient.

    As for the structure of the wind machine, it is very simple. There is only a low-level wind formation, no mechanical structure, only the formation rune structure.

    ????????????????????? However, this structure generates great heat, and the array pattern is made of low-grade dark iron with extremely high resistance, so the array pattern often melts.

    And this kind of clumsy fan is not new, but it is of little use in the world of cultivation, so it has not been developed.

    "I still have a question. Formations made of low-grade black iron are easy to burn. Why not use better black iron?"

    Huang Mingshan blinked, but he was a little confused: "They are just clumsy guys. Good black iron is so expensive."

    "Does everyone do this?" Zhang Hao asked.

    "Yes!" Huang Mingshan said matter-of-factly.

    Zhang Hao smiled: "Very good. These ten spiritual stones are yours."

    "Thank you, Master." Huang Mingshan picked up the spirit stone, his face full of joy, and at the end he gave Zhang Hao a silly smile.

    Zhang Hao nodded: "Huang Mingshan, I have a task and I need your help."

    "Master, please tell me, as long as Huang Mingshan can do it, he will go through fire and water and die!" Huang Mingshan stood up excitedly.

    "Okay!" Zhang Hao expressed his appreciation for Huang Mingshan's attitude, "It's okay. You can make a list of all the craftsmen you know who know wind machines, formations, and weapon refining.  The more detailed the better.

    Once this is done, we will reward you with 10 more spiritual stones!  "

    "Yes!" Huang Mingshan's eyes lit up, and he vaguely felt that the opportunity to change his destiny seemed to have come.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com), Don't turn your heels!  "Huang Mingshan stood up excitedly.
