#59 - gun
While Quan Ying and Yuan Xing were discussing the specifics, Quan Yi, led by Yuan Fei, began to tour the interior of the blacksmith shop.
The hall of the shop was filled with various weapons and armor.
Of course, there were also farm tools in some corners, but their number was far less than that of weapons and armor.
In large cities, the demand for weapons and armor is greater than that for farm tools, so they have better sales.
Quan Yi approached and carefully observed the quality of these ironwares.
Quan Yi knew nothing about forging, but the Quan family's basement hid many weapons and armor.

Comparing the two, the quality was not much different, but it was still not as good as the weapons in the basement.
However, this was because the Quan family used very precious materials, while the ironwares of the Yuan family blacksmith shop used ordinary quality materials.
From this, it could be seen that Yuan the blacksmith was superior in skill.
Then, Quan Yi looked at the price list.
Quan Yi sighed, not because it was too expensive, but because it was too cheap.
Weapons of this quality should have been priced higher, but the current price was basically just the cost price.
According to investigations, the Yuan family stipulated that they would only charge a 30% profit on cost.
This was a simple and straightforward idea.
However, the Yuan family blacksmith shop, adhering to the concept of honest operation, had also accumulated a good reputation.
But as he grew older, Yuan the blacksmith's skills continued to improve, and the quality of his weapons also continued to rise. Ordinary materials bloomed with a different brilliance in his hands.
Under such circumstances, Yuan the blacksmith should have raised the price, but he mistakenly lowered the price further.
When this kind of cheap and good product enters the market, it will definitely be very popular at the beginning, but at the same time, it is also easy to be envied by peers.
The current sharp decline in the Yuan family's situation is because they have been deliberately suppressed and smeared by their peers.
Yuan the blacksmith's mistake was in underestimating his own skills, and also underestimating commercial behavior too much.
In the cruel commercial world, good quality and good character are far from enough.
However, it was precisely this kind of character that made Quan Yi feel at ease to cooperate with him.
"Young master, would you like to visit the forging room in person?"
At this time, Yuan Xing, who had finished signing the contract, also walked to Quan Yi's side.
The address to Quan Yi had unknowingly changed from 'boy' to 'young master'.
"Of course, I have long wanted to see Yuan the blacksmith's superb skills."
After this, this place would be Quan Yi's secret base, so of course he had to visit it properly.
Led by Yuan the blacksmith, the group passed through the hall and entered the backyard.
As soon as Quan Yi stepped into the backyard gate, a wave of heat rushed towards him, and the empty forging room was displayed in front of everyone.
Although there were no customers or blacksmiths working, the blacksmith shop's stove still had flames burning lonely.
The forging room had various forging tools, but the entire environment presented an orderly state.
It was completely unmatched with the dirty, messy, and poor impression in Quan Yi's mind.
Although he only glanced at it, Quan Yi could judge the blacksmith's character through the environment.
Yuan the blacksmith walked to the largest workbench inside and began to introduce it to everyone.
"This is my workbench. I usually work here. The young master's ironware was also completed here."
Quan Yi also entered the forging room for the first time, and was immediately attracted by the various forging tools.
At the same time, the two took off their tops, exposing their well-built upper bodies.
At the same time, the eyes of the two became extremely serious, just like the feeling of Quan Yi when he was exercising.
"Huff, huff."
Under Yuan Fei's rhythmic control, the flame continued to burn the iron block at a stable temperature.
After a while, the iron block was burned red. Yuan the blacksmith, who had not moved for a long time, suddenly clamped the iron block with iron tongs at a certain moment and placed the red-hot iron block on the anvil.
Then, a flash of light flashed across his right hand, and a square iron hammer appeared in his right hand.
"Clang, clang, clang."
Yuan the blacksmith began to hammer the iron block hard with the iron hammer.
The iron hammer that had just appeared was the Yuan family's ancestral martial soul, the square-headed hammer.
Under Yuan the blacksmith's superb skills, the original irregular iron block began to slowly form a certain shape.
Before long, Yuan the blacksmith stopped hammering, then clamped it with iron tongs and put it into the water.
"Tss~."
The high-temperature iron block met the cold water, causing the forging room to be filled with mist.
When the sound completely disappeared, Yuan the blacksmith immediately took out the iron block and showed it to Quan Yi.
Seeing the finished product displayed in front of him, Quan Yi couldn't help but clap his hands.
"Clap clap clap, miraculous, Yuan the blacksmith is completely worthy of the title of master."
A sphere, and a very perfect sphere.
Yuan the blacksmith only used the past ten minutes to hammer an irregular iron block into a perfect sphere.
This was also the shotgun bullet that Quan Yi had previously commissioned to be made.
Realizing this, Quan Yi immediately took out the iron pipe he was carrying and put the iron ball that Yuan the blacksmith had just made inside.
The iron ball slid into the bottom of the iron pipe without any hindrance, and the gap between the iron ball and the iron pipe was only a few millimeters.
You must know that Yuan the blacksmith had no reference at all just now, and completely forged it based on feeling.
Now that this miraculous technology is in Quan Yi's hands, with this technology, Quan Yi's dream is no longer a pipe dream.
After seeing Yuan the blacksmith's technology, Quan Yi lived in the blacksmith shop for a whole week.
The sound of hammering iron continued from morning to night, every day.
It was not until the day before departure that the sound of hammering iron in the blacksmith shop completely subsided.
"Young master, is this kind of ironware really useful?" Yuan Xing asked Quan Yi uncertainly.
"Don't worry, I know how to use it, and this thing can onlyεζ₯εΊηζ£ηδ½η¨ in my hands."
Quan Yi replied confidently.
Quan Yi was holding a long ironware in his hand.
One end was thin, one end was thick, one end was straight, and one end was irregular.
Yuan Xing had never seen such a strange weapon, and he couldn't imagine what kind of use this weapon had.
But Quan Yi was very satisfied.
He didn't expect that he would actually replicate the weapons of his previous life in this world.
That's right, this ironware is a gun.
This was made by Quan Yi based on the shotgun of his previous life.
Compared to the previous simple iron pipe, this time Quan Yi also attached a handle and a buttstock. With these two, Quan Yi could more easily offset the recoil of the Rhino Seal, and even allow people without soul power to withstand it.
Moreover, the most important part of this work is that Quan Yi also made a simple magazine and an inlet.
This kind of magazine is on the top. After firing a shot, Quan Yi only needs to push the switch to open the entrance between the barrel and the magazine, allowing the bullet to naturally slide into the barrel.
This way, Quan Yi will be much more convenient to shoot.
Although this gun can only be used by Quan Yi now, it may not be the case in the future.
Ironware Research Institute, in fact, Quan Yi has another name in his mind, which is the Gun Research Institute.
