Chapter 49

Thirty tons of meteorite iron sounds like a lot, but after I got it, I discovered that the double bed that Ning Yuan slept in was not as big as Ning Yuan’s bed. The only thing that was gratifying was that these meteorite irons were all refined iron ingots, and Ning Yuan didn’t need to organize it again. The manpower has been smelted, and it seems that Wang Ziwen’s natural wonder is not simple, otherwise he might not come to Ning Yuan for help.

Ning Yuan looked at the declaration of war token in his hand. He really wanted to declare war directly to Wang Ziwen, and then grab this natural wonder, but rationally told him that if he did so, then he might be notorious in China. Yuan Yang, after all, openly snatching his guild’s companions will be spurned by everyone.

By then, I am afraid that no guild will accept him again, and even if he grabs the natural wonder, he may not be able to keep it.

I believe that by that time, many people with a sense of justice will carry out endless attacks on him, and when people discover that there are three natural wonders in his territory, big guilds like the Imperial League will also use the name of eliminating harm for the people. Join in, and by then, Ning Yuan will really be the enemy of the world. Once he is defeated, he will probably never be able to turn back.

Thinking of this terrible result, Ning Yuan silently put the declaration of war token in his hand back into the storage space. Now he is fledgling and can’t stand the big storms, so he should just stay in the mutual aid association.

With the meteorite iron, Ning Yuan was not in the mood to invade others, and he immediately organized and started to weave manpower to forge weapons.

It just so happened that some large pottery can be made in the tribe. Ning Yuan designed a set of simple drawings of the blast furnace himself, and then gave it to the pottery masters to build it.

Since meteorite iron is already relatively pure iron ingots, Ning Yuan’s main purpose is to melt them into a liquid state, and then pour them into a pre-made mold. After the liquid iron cools and solidifies, he can get what he wants. Various appliances too.

Although Ning Yuan lacks knowledge in these areas, don’t forget that he has a civilized science and technology tree. He directly spent 120 scientific research points on primary smelting, intermediate smelting, primary steel forging and intermediate steel forging. The scientific research value was not enough. Ning Yuan exchanged all the 48 war points into scientific research points. After studying these four technologies, his scientific research points were only 27 points left.

Primary smelting: The smelting efficiency of ore is increased by 20%.

Intermediate Smelting: The smelting efficiency of ore is increased by 50%.

Elementary steel forging technique: You can make some simple tools and increase the forging efficiency by 20%.

Intermediate steel forging technology: With the further improvement of forging tools, the forging efficiency has increased by 50%.

After studying the four technologies, Ning Yuan took the people and got up in the mud. There was nothing he could do. He could not help much at the “blast furnace”, and he might not be helpful if he stayed there, so in order not to affect those systems. The thoughts of Master Tao, he simply took people away.

And although he is not good at making iron, he is a veteran with mud. When he was young, he went to the countryside. He and his friends there grew up by the river almost every day, but what did he do by the river? It’s nothing more than bathing, catching fish, and mud.

After ordering people to get some good clay, Ning Yuan started playing with his own hands. He squeezed out various tools from the mud, including hammers, axes, sticks,…, of course, these clay tools are all It’s hollow, and it’s only half, as if it’s been split in the middle.



After all the models were dried, Ning Yuan carefully took them to the newly built “blast furnace”, and then surrounded the models with sand to prevent the models from being exposed to hot molten iron when the molten iron was poured into it for a while. Scalded.

Since Ning Yuan’s current requirement is to be able to melt the meteorite iron ingots, this simple blast furnace was quickly completed, and the pottery masters transformed an earthen kiln for pottery into a blast furnace.

As a large amount of Wujin coal began to burn and generate heat, the temperature in the earth kiln became higher and higher. In the end, Ningyuan had to get a large amount of river water. Everyone who enters and exits the earth kiln must get wet before entering. , And can’t stay in it for too long.

“boom.”

As the temperature continued to rise, the furnace body used to hold the meteorite was directly burnt, and the first iron smelting was declared a failure.

After the temperature in the earthen kiln dropped a little, Ning Yuan went in to check the situation in person.

He found that the ceramic furnace body had been completely burnt, and the meteorite iron in it had fallen onto the burning Wujin coal. Although the meteorite iron did not melt into a liquid state as Ning Yuan had imagined, it was due to the high temperature emitted by the Wujin coal. They were still burnt red.

Ning Yuan stabbed with a wooden stick and found that although these meteorite irons had not melted, they were in a sponge-like state and had become very soft.

Seeing this change, Ning Yuan hurriedly ordered some wooden tools to get these spongy meteorites out of the fire. Then, regardless of the heat of the meteorite, he directly fiddled with the spongy meteorite with a stone axe. It became the shape of a hammer.

After being poured with water to cool, a very ugly hammer was made.

After trying the feel of an iron hammer, Ning Yuan simply had the remaining spongy meteorite made into a hammer. In this way, the first iron smelting of the Shenying tribe, ghosts and gods made a lot of things. Hammer.

Although the hammer was finished, the shape was not very regular and the surface of the hammer was not very flat. So next, Ning Yuan gave the order to sharpen the hammer collectively to the strong fighters. Groups of three, set the hammer. Take it to a hard rock and grind it until the hammer surface is smooth.

Ning Yuan had to find another way when he did this. The stove burned. Obviously, the pottery couldn’t withstand the high temperature, so he had nothing to do in a short time.

However, the appearance of sponge iron made him see the light again. As long as the first batch of hammers are ground, he can use these hammers to beat the sponge iron into various shapes. Then the swords and weapons will be in the Condor tribe. Was born.

In this way, the strong and strong Condor fighters spent a whole day and a half grinding them to grind the hammer surface that meets Ning Yuan’s requirements.

Although it was a three-person shift, repeating a movement back and forth still made these fighters very tired, but this time they were not completely unprofitable. In the process of grinding, they at least knew what kind of stone is more suitable. Used to grind ironware, Ning Yuan thinks that the stones may be whetstones or the like.

With a qualified hammer, Ning Yuan began to organize manpower to rush to make iron weapons.

As there are currently no professionals in this area in the tribe, Ning Yuan temporarily gave up building swords and other weapons that require relatively high craftsmanship. He let people beat the semi-liquid sponge iron into the shape of a stick, and finally created a meteorite iron rod about 1.8 meters long and as thick as a baby’s wrist.

Although the surface of this meteorite iron rod is not very smooth, it is at least strong enough, and the weight of thirty kilograms is just enough to exert the brute force of the condor warriors.

After trying the hand feel, Ning Yuan felt that it was a lot stronger than the stone axe, and one inch long and one inch stronger, this long weapon was also more powerful in battle.

An iron rod weighs more than 30 kilograms, and ten tons of iron iron totals 20,000 kilograms. About 660 iron rods can be made. 20 tons of iron iron is 1,320, which is just enough to arm a powerful army.

As for the remaining few tons of iron, leave it to the “blacksmiths” to tinker with them. If you want them to successfully build a sword, they must have something to practice.
