Zhang Chunlin spoke his thoughts excitedly. Zhou Shuâs expression became a little strange. He suddenly said, âOdd to even change?â
Zhang Chunlin was stunned. âWhat do you mean?â
âNothing.â Zhou Shu heaved a sigh of relief, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
He was still a little too nervous. How could it be so easy to meet someone like him?
Zhang Chunlin was obviously not a transmigrator. He had just coincidentally had similar ideas to his previous life.
âThis has to be done according to the properties of different forging materials. Thereâs no need for a Forging Master to take action. A Forging Apprentice can complete this step with a little training,â Zhang Chunlin said excitedly. âWhat we need to do is to forge a large smelting furnace!â
Zhang Chunlinâs idea was actually somewhat similar to the steelmaking method on Earth in Zhou Shuâs previous life. Zhou Shu had a similar idea in the past, but he had put it aside.
The forging of weapons in this world was similar to Earthâs in Zhou Shuâs previous life. There were many things that couldnât be copied. Although Zhou Shu had used his previous life as a reference, he relied more on the forging techniques of this world.
But if it was just dealing with forging materials, he could use the industrial methods of his previous life.
âThatâs a very good thought.â Zhou Shu nodded. âHave you thought about how to forge the smelting furnace? Also, where will the fire seed come from?â
âIâve already designed the smelting furnace and thought about the fire seed. We can draw earth fire to forge it. This way, we wonât need martial artists to activate the true fire,â Zhang Chunlin said seriously. âIâve calculated that the temperature of the earth fire is enough to smelt ordinary forging materials.
âHowever, materials like Heaven Refining Stone still need true fire to be smelted.â
Zhang Chunlin had seriously considered this question. He gave answers to all of Zhou Shuâs questions.
During his twenty years of captivity, Zhang Chunlin had spent almost all his time thinking about this problem in order to avoid being tortured to madness. He had already envisioned all kinds of possibilities. What he lacked was just an opportunity to practice.
Now, this opportunity was right in front of him, and the massive amount of forging materials happened to give him a chance to practice it.
If not for the fact that he wasnât familiar with Zhou Shu, he would have suggested this idea long ago.
Over the past few days, although Zhang Chunlin still couldnât see through Zhou Shu, he was at least certain that Zhou Shu was really human.
Moreover, he was a human who hadnât submitted to demonic beasts.
This was enough. He, Zhang Chunlin, was not ignorant of the bigger picture. As long as he was sure it was for the sake of the human race, he would do his best to help. As for the friction between the two of them, it was not worth mentioning in the face of important matters.
âVery well!â Zhou Shu said. âLetâs do it your way. There are a few things you need to pay special attention to!â
Zhou Shu explained some of the processes of industrialization in his previous life to Zhang Chunlin.
Zhang Chunlinâs eyes lit up as he looked at Zhou Shu with admiration.
There were many things that he couldnât figure out. But when he heard this, he was certain that Zhou Shuâs method was feasible!
Zhou Shu was able to analyze some of the problems that Zhang Chunlin had been thinking hard about for years.
He really was a genius!
Could it be that what he had said earlier about him being Great Xiaâs King of the South was true?
This thought flashed across Zhang Chunlinâs mind.
âThis process is called industrialized forging,â Zhou Shu continued, âIf you succeed, you will be the founder of industrialized forging.
âYou deserve more credit.â
Zhang Chunlin shook his head. The points Zhou Shu had just mentioned were the most important points. If he couldnât solve these points, he wouldnât be able to achieve the best effect with his thoughts alone.
Moreover, Zhang Chunlin suspected that Zhou Shu had already thought of these ideas. Otherwise, he wouldnât have been able to follow his train of thought so quickly.
âThatâs enough. We donât have to argue about this.â Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. âIf we succeed, your name will definitely be in the history of forging.
âThe most important thing now is to actually make it.â
Zhou Shu continued, âTo smelt materials in bulk, you need to know the nature of the forging materials like the back of your hand. You canât afford to make any mistakes. Youâll have to keep an eye on it.â
âLeave it to me. Donât worry,â Zhang Chunlin said.
The two of them looked at each other and felt like they had just met for the first time.
Zhou Shu no longer felt any enmity for Zhang Chunlin.
âYouâve been imprisoned by demonic beasts for many years, and your physical condition has been bad. This is somewhat disadvantageous to your work.â Zhou Shu took out a few finger-sized pills. âI have some nourishing pills here. Take them back and take them when you have time.
âI need to stress again that what weâre going to do is important and that we only have this one chance. We canât afford to make a mistake!â
Zhang Chunlin took the pills from Zhou Shu and said with a solemn expression, âDonât worry. I endured humiliation for twenty years in order to make the demonic beasts pay the price one day! I will definitely make this happen!â
He turned and left, leaving Zhou Shu.
The corners of Zhou Shuâs mouth curled up slightly. If Zhang Chunlin really succeeded, he could bring him back to the Huaxia Pavilion in the future and become a deputy pavilion master with Shi Songtao.
