Chapter 39 - Divine Weapon

 Clang! Clang!

  Qin Feng threw the long saber at the door, and Qing Huai immediately brought the guards to surround him.

  They waited at the entrance of the shop for the whole night.

  Even the women who were about to change shifts stopped what they were doing and craned their necks to watch the show.

  "Don't touch it yet. It's still hot."

  Qin Feng saw that Zhang Liang wanted to pick up the long saber and quickly reminded him.

  Although it had already been tempered, the temperature of the long saber was still very high. If he touched it, he was afraid that a piece of skin would be scalded.

  After a busy night, Qin Feng was exhausted. He only recovered after drinking two bowls of millet porridge.

  The long saber had almost cooled down. Qin Feng asked Man Cang to install the wooden handle that he had prepared before handing the long saber to Qing Huai.

  After cooling down, the long saber was completely black and shone with a cold light.

  As a soldier, Qing Huai fell in love with it at first sight.

  With a flick of his finger, the long saber immediately let out a crisp ringing sound. It only stopped after a few breaths.

  "Good saber!"

  "Sir, this saber looks cold and threatening. Is it tough?" Qing Huai couldn't help but praise.

  "Lord Marquis, as you can see, this is the first time I've been forging since the furnace was built. I can't say for sure how effective it will be. I can only try it out to find out."

  After all, this was the first time he had made a metal weapon since he came to Great Kang. Qin Feng could not guarantee a 100% success rate.

  "Zhong Wu, bring me my saber!"

  Qing Huai shouted.

  "Lord Marquis, your saber was forged by a famous craftsman in the capital. If it's damaged, it's not worth it. It's better to use mine to test the saber. In any case, it's a match. If it's broken, I'll just go and get another one."

  Zhong Wu ran over and untied his sword from his horse, handing it over with both hands.

  In order to prevent the long saber from breaking, the standard long sabers used by the Great Kang army were mostly thick and heavy, and Zhong Wu's was one such case.

  It was about a meter long and more than ten centimeters wide. The thickness of the back of the knife was an exaggerated one centimeter.

  This long saber was enough to fight three black sabers after melting.

  "Come, give it a try."

  Qing Huai didn't take Zhong Wu's saber. Instead, he held the handle of the black saber with both hands and got into a chopping position.

  "Lord Marquis, be careful."

  Zhong Wu pulled out his long saber and slashed at Black Blade without any fancy moves.

  Clang!

  The two blades clashed, producing a crisp sound.

  The saber in Zhong Wu's hand broke into two halves from the middle. The front half fell to the ground with a crisp clang.

  Qing Huai withdrew his black saber and carefully examined it.

  The black knife was as good as new, and there was not even a trace of a curl on the blade.

  "Try this one again!"

  Qing Huai picked up another black knife and swung it at the wooden pillar beside him.

  Shua!

  The blade flashed and the wooden pillar was cut into two.

  The fracture was as smooth as a mirror!

  "Good saber! No, this is a divine weapon!"

  Qing Huai's eyes lit up with excitement. He carefully stroked the black saber as if he was stroking his beloved lover.

  "Sir, can you sell these two sabers to me?"

  Qing Huai held a black knife in one hand. He asked in embarrassment," Sir, you can name the price. As long as I can afford it, I won't object."

  "Since Lord Marquis has spoken, then use this jade pendant to exchange for it."

  Qin Feng pointed at Qing Huai's waist.

  Qing Huai was a proud person. If he said that it was a free gift, he would feel uncomfortable.

  Qin Feng was running out of money. He was short of money recently.

  It was better to say a price that was neither high nor low, which was good for both sides.

  Qing Huai took off the jade pendant and handed it to Qin Feng.

  Qin Feng didn't stand on ceremony and took the jade pendant with a smile.

  "Congratulations to Lord Marquis for obtaining a divine weapon!"

  Zhong Wu threw down his broken military saber and knelt down with cupped fists.

  The other guards immediately followed suit.

  Man Cang was so excited that his entire body was trembling.

  Which family didn't teach their disciples to be ordered around like a donkey for a few years? Whether they could learn skills or not depended on whether the master was happy or not.

  Mancang was already prepared to work for Qin Feng for three years for free.

  However, Qin Feng had never treated him as a laborer. From the time he built the furnace to last night's forging, he had never avoided it.

  Being able to forge a divine weapon like the black saber, Qin Feng would become famous in the world sooner or later. As Qin Feng's disciple and assistant, he would also benefit endlessly.

  Thinking of this, Man Cang looked at Qin Feng gratefully.

  He thought that Qin Feng would be as excited as him, but who knew that Qin Feng did not have any expression of surprise. It was as if forging such a weapon was not worth mentioning at all.

  In fact, how would he know that to Qin Feng, it was indeed not worth mentioning. In his previous life, when he was working part-time in the machinery factory, any knife he made would not be weaker than Black Knife.

  The fact that the black knife could easily cut through Zhong Wu's military knife did not mean that the black knife was sharp enough to cut through iron like mud, but that Zhong Wu's military knife was too fragile.

  It was like a piece of glass. If a small hole was made on the side, the glass would easily shatter.

  By the same logic, as long as the black knife made a small cut on the blade of Zhong Wu's military saber, the military saber made of pig iron would also break easily.

  If it wasn't for the fact that the iron left behind by the old blacksmith had too many impurities, no coal, and the furnace was not as good as it seemed, Qin Feng could have produced even better products.

  Unfortunately, Da Kang's craftsmanship was too outdated.

  "I know. The price of these two divine weapons is far more than a jade pendant. Consider it that I owe you a favor."

  While everyone was excitedly passing the black knife around, Qing Huai found Qin Feng and whispered.

  "Lord Marquis is thinking too much. This is a business between two willing parties. If I accept the jade pendant, it means that the money and goods are settled. No one owes the other."

  "Lord Marquis doesn't need to say that he owes me a favor. As long as he doesn't regret it in the future, it's fine." Qin Feng smiled.

  "Sir, do you mean that you can create such a divine weapon?"

  Qing Huai immediately understood what Qin Feng meant.

  "Why not?"

  "It's just a little troublesome," said Qin Feng.

  "Sir, did you learn this technique from somewhere else, or did you create it yourself?"

  Qing Huai pulled Qin Feng back to the Blacksmith Shop, and his speaking speed increased.

  "I created it by observing my father forging." Qin Feng could only say this.

  "Could it be that as long as we build such a furnace, we can forge a divine weapon?"

  Qing Huai pointed at the furnace and asked.

  " The furnace is only one aspect. There are other methods that need to be used, as well as the special mineral powder that I've prepared."

  "Does anyone else know the formula of the mineral powder?"

  "No, I haven't."

  "Sir, if this divine weapon is used properly, it will be of great significance to our Great Kang. Please don't spread it to others."

  "Don't worry, I'm still counting on this skill to eat."

  Qin Feng laughed.

  He sold the two black sabers for a jade pendant. In the future, he would not do anything else. If he could make two sabers in ten days to half a month, he would not lack money for the rest of his life.

  "If that's what you think, I'd like to do business with you."

  " If you are willing to give this skill to the Imperial Court, you can ask for as much money as you want," Qing Huai said." I guarantee that the Imperial Court will agree." If Mister wants to gain fame, I can recommend Mister to work in Craftsman Manor. I believe that with Mister's talent, you will be able to make a name for yourself in Craftsman Manor!"
