0163 Wind Forging Machine
Not all the adventurers in the North have money. There are also many who are not very good at their level, are extremely poor and are poor. These people can only steal and act rampant, become bandits and thieves, or block the way.
Harmony Village operates externally, and the flow of people suddenly increases, and it is impossible to identify outsiders one by one. The village quickly becomes chaotic and messy. Zhou Qingfeng was forced to keep the power of the law, which is to encounter strong resistance when maintaining order.
Later, the matter of maintaining the village was thrown to Kelly. The half-ling girl was very powerful and sucked people everywhere with a whip. But forcibly suppressing could not solve the problem. Inesa decided to follow Zhou Qingfeng's idea and recruit some adventurers for her own use.
Only by solving the employment problem can society be stable. This is a summary of the experience of the development of the Turkish Communist Party for decades. It is useless to learn.
Powell, wearing gray armor, pointed to the recruitment notice on the notice board and whispered: "Don't it say it's that the village needs blacksmiths, carpenters, and bricklayers."
Fabrow was shocked, "His Excellency Powell, are you going to do the work of the untouchables?"
Powell didn't care, but the man named Robin on the other side responded, "I can go and work as a blacksmith. I should be able to contact more people in this village and understand what they want to do?"
Powell nodded and smiled, and pointed to the next column of the recruitment notice, "Here is recruiting people to clean up the woods around the village, hunt down goblins and zombies near the road. Logging, mining, and even shoemakers and tutors have the work of."
Fabro immediately shook his head, "Sorry, I've been here before. Victor Hugo is likely to know my identity. I also have a lot of jobs in the Plaster Village, and I'm afraid I can't stay in this village for a long time."
Powell and Robin both nodded, not caring about it. The two watched Fabro leave, then looked at each other with a wry smile, and then went to apply for their respective positions. There was a recruitment office in the tavern behind them, which was specifically responsible for the allocation of human resources.
The recruitment is in the corner of the tavern, with a large guise on a table. There are two conspicuous letters ‘hr’ drawn on the guise. The old profiteer Rubio is sitting listlessly behind the table, watching the adventurers in the tavern drink and brag, so bored that they yawn.
Robin was relatively sturdy and stepped forward and asked, "I heard you are recruiting blacksmiths here?"
"Yes." The old profiteer had a vicious look, but deliberately looked like he was not awake. He looked at the person in front of him, "We provide piece-based wages and provide different treatments according to our work ability."
Robin didn't listen to the treatment carefully, so he nodded to show that he wanted to get a job as a blacksmith. The old profiteer took out an identity card, wrote a name and position and handed it out, and even told the other party, "Don't lose the identity card, otherwise he would be punished."
Recruiting is so simple, but Robin didn't take the reminder of the old profiteer seriously. In his opinion, the old guy with rat whiskers and a disgusting face in front of him might be a small foreman, or a relative of a leader in the village, who was sent to keep a mess.
According to usual perception, this kind of dizzy untouchable is not a minority. Most of them are idiots, living a mediocre life in a daze, and they are traced in every village and city corner.
After taking over the identity card, Robin nodded slightly to Powell behind him and went to the forging ground in the village to work. He knew very well that an excellent blacksmith was highly valued in any place, and as long as he showed his skills, he should be valued.
If the woman named Inesa is in this village, Robin believes that he will be able to find the other party in a few days. When he comes to the forging ground, he is full of confidence. But when he arrives, he arrives, he is full of confidence.
The furnace entrance of the melting iron furnace is full of flames, and the gushing air flow circulates in the heat storage room, and it is still full of heat when it rushes out of the chimney. A pottery-cast pipeline attracts water flow, which not only cools the temperature of the chimney and provides hot water to the villagers in the village.
The design and scale of this melting furnace alone made Robin stop. He looked up at the chimney seven or eight meters high. After a simple evaluation, he felt that this place was completely different from a remote and ordinary village.
"Hey, new." A rough dwarf came out of the forging site and waved his hand and shouted, "Come here, come here, I'll arrange your work."
Walk through the melting iron furnace and enter the forging site. The melted iron comes out of the furnace mouth and is introduced into cast-mold crucibles to become strip iron, and will soon enter the next forging process.
According to Robin's expectation, it would be great if there were one or two blacksmiths in this broken village, and more than a dozen apprentices were given. However, this village hidden in the Black Forest actually had a forging site where hundreds of people worked.
The Black Forest provides abundant and cheap fuel, and the ore in Tielu Village is also endless, providing convenient conditions for forging and production.
"Give me an anvil and a forging hammer, and I can create whatever you want." Robin looked at several blacksmith apprentices who were forging hammers and said confidently: "I am a very good blacksmith."
The dwarf in the forging site pinched Robin's arm and nodded in his approval. But he shook his head and said, "You don't need to do what an apprentice does. The forging here is different from other places. It doesn't require too much skill, but it requires some patience."
"Patient?" Robin smiled again, "My patience is also very good."
The dwarf shook his head and continued to lead Robin to the forging ground. He soon saw a huge forging machine working, with the forging hammer constantly moving up and down, hitting the strip of iron placed on the anvil.
The forging machine was so big that it was beyond Robin's imagination. What shocked him even more was that the forging machine did not rely on human or animal power. The moving forging hammer seemed to be moving on its own, and the forging power was quite large. Every impact made a deafening sound, which made the chest and lungs tremble.
"This is" Robin's brain buzzed, but he didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment. He worked as a blacksmith for many years before becoming famous, and he did have superb forging skills. But he had never seen this thing before.
"When did you dwarves create such a terrible thing?"
The dwarf shook his head, "No, it was not made by us. Every blacksmith who came here would be frightened by this thing, and we dwarfs were no exception. This is a wind forging machine, which uses the ever-stop cold wind in the black forest to drive the forging hammer. This thing is very powerful!"
It is indeed very strong. The forging hammer is at least fifty kilograms, and it falls at a height of one meter, and its strength is far beyond that of normal humans. Even if Robin exerts the "Battle Power" and cannot knock out such a strong force. I am afraid that the Yunxiao Giant can only match it.
"Whose idea is this?"
"It was the idea of the local lord, our chairman, Lord Victor Hugo. He hired a group of human blacksmiths from the Ironforest at a high price to build this thing from the Ironforest Village in the Black Forest.
The forged strip iron will achieve excellent quality improvements and will be handed over to the apprentices of the forging site for further creation, producing high-quality tools and weapons."
"The lord here actually knows forging?"
"I guess so."
The dwarf led Robin to the inside of the forging site and could see a windmill about ten meters high turning on the roof. The windmill is not large in size, but the advantage is that the power is even and it almost never stops.
According to the dwarf, only one forging machine is installed in the forging site. The machine is still very rough and needs to be repaired and adjusted from time to time. In order to make this thing work normally, more than a dozen humans and dwarf craftsmen have to guard it day and night, and must be patient.
Because no one has used this thing in the past, and no one has any experience. The Chairman even left nothing to do. He just said that he would create a reliable windmill and wind forging machine, and he would give bonuses to make everyone happy.
"Don't look at the forging machine's strength, it's because it's too powerful, so it's too easy to break. It has to stop for maintenance every hour or two, otherwise it can break itself apart."
The dwarf kept complaining, but his tone was full of pride. Because as long as the forging machine worked for an hour, its forging ability was more than one hundred skilled blacksmiths. The tough iron material was soft like dough in front of it, saving a lot of effort.
Most of the more than 100 apprentices in the forging site do not do blacksmith's work. They are responsible for further forging, modifying and other fine processing of iron materials processed by the forging machine, and have very high production efficiency.
As the saying goes, "Very great force makes a miracle", the forging hammer of the wind forging machine can easily solve many problems such as loose and porous, deformation and oxidation in iron materials. This is a problem that no matter how skilled blacksmith is, it cannot solve.
Robin picked up a semi-finished steel knife, and with a slight bounce, he could feel that the knife was fine and has excellent texture. Even in several southern cities with developed forging industry, this was a top-notch product.
In just a moment, Robin actually changed his mind. I wanted to master the secret of this forging machine, and not let the evil Victor Hugo block this incredible technology. It must be stolen.
