Every time I come home, my wife is making garbage

Chapter 53 Let's get something else done

After Zhang Jingyi solved the problem with the sword, he immediately pulled a cart of broken iron swords back to his own world and dumped the iron swords casually on the floor of the warehouse.

At this moment, Luna came out of the staff dormitory and waved at him: "Your Majesty, the restaurant is open late today. I don't have lunch yet. I'm so hungry now."

Zhang Jingyi smiled: "Most of the ingredients in the restaurant were eaten by you. The guests didn't eat as much as you did."

Luna giggled: "There are not many customers at all."

She glanced at the iron swords piled on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, these iron swords seem to belong to your guards?"

"Well! No more." Zhang Jingyi said, "I'll find a garbage dump to throw them away later."

"Wow, such good iron swords, it would be a waste to throw them away." Luna pounced on the pile of iron swords, opened her arms like a hen protecting her chicks, and protected the iron swords: "We Gilneans are in great need of metal."

Zhang Jingyi: "You can transform, and use wolf teeth and claws to fight, so you don't have to have metal?"

Luna pouted. "That being said, we would still feel safer if we were in human form wearing armor and holding weapons. Besides, there is a serious shortage of iron pots in the town. There are only a few pots in the whole town. Most of our limited iron is used to make farm tools such as hoes and sickles."

Zhang Jingyi said, "Oh!" "That's a problem! You don't have mining and metal smelting industries. The limited amount of iron seems to be hard to come by."

Luna nodded: "We can only rely on hunting some monsters and selling the valuable parts of the monsters to goblin merchants in exchange for some metals."

Zhang Jingyi: "Have you ever considered opening a mine yourself?"

Luna: "Of course I have considered it. There is iron ore on the mountainside not far from our Gilneas town. But there are only 300 people in Gilneas town. We are all engaged in farming, and the output is limited. We simply do not have extra manpower to mine."

Zhang Jingyi smiled and said, "But now, with micro-tillage machines and water pumps, you can save a lot of manpower for farming."

Luna's eyes lit up at these words.

Yup!

After receiving help from His Majesty the King, the town of Gilneas has greatly reduced the manpower needed for agriculture, and there is no problem in allocating a few dozen people to mine and forge metal.

Luna pouted again: "But even if we have manpower, we don't have the technology. Mining ore is easy, we just need to find the ore, break it and bring it back, but how to turn iron ore into iron, we..."

"Haha, this is a small problem. Let me give a class on it."

"Ah? His Majesty the King can do this, too?" Luna said in astonishment, "What else can't His Majesty the King do?"

Zhang Jingyi chuckled: "Anyway, let's open the restaurant first. I see you are so hungry that you can't stand it anymore."

"Okay, okay! Let's open the restaurant." Luna rushed to the restaurant's kitchen...

Zhang Jingyi smiled and opened his mobile phone, searching for "ancient method of iron training", and a lot of video tutorials and various text guides came out.

He took a quick look and knew the general process and what tools were needed. For the ancients, the biggest technical difficulty in the iron smelting process was "raising the furnace temperature", and everything else could be solved by brute force.

For modern people, raising the furnace temperature is extremely easy.

Search for "household smelting furnace" on Taobao. The cheapest one is only one thousand yuan, and the better ones are only seven or eight thousand yuan. Place an order and it's done.

The only problem is that this thing needs electricity, and 25 kilowatts of power consumption is not low. The micro diesel generator provided to Gilneas Town before is definitely not enough, so we have to get a small generator with high power. Continue to search for "diesel generator set", 200 kilowatts, with batteries, the inferior brand is more than , the better brand is or , it's a lot!
In the past, Zhang Jingyi would have vomited blood if he had to buy such expensive items.

But now... place the order! No need to think about it.

By the way, we also need to order new armor for the guards.

Bulky metal armor is no longer popular in modern times. There are countless high-quality materials that can be used to replace armor. Zhang Jingyi entered the keywords "knife-proof clothing" and "knife-proof pants" on Taobao and found a lot of them.

Place your orders, place your orders...

At the same time, deep in the western forest, the Mantis Man’s lair.

A huge strange tree stood proudly in the middle of the forest. Although a great battle had taken place here a few days ago and there were many traces of knife cuts and fire on the tree, the tree still stood proudly.

The Blackhearted Wizard, the Black Knight Fed, and a local small lord Adrian, along with 200 elite light infantrymen of the Black Knights and 200 miscellaneous soldiers led by them, stood in front of this strange tree.

The Blackhearted Mage pointed at the destroyed Mantis Man nests on the trees and said, "A few days ago, a great battle took place here, and the Mantis Man living here were wiped out."

Little Lord Adrian: "It was the cat man who did it."

"Cat people don't know magic." The Blackhearted Mage pointed to a burnt patch of bark on the tree and said, "This was blasted out by fire magic."

The Black Knight also spoke up: "There are still traces of swords and knives on the tree."

The Blackhearted Mage chuckled. "So, let's guess, who did the cat-man team up with to kill the mantis-man? A race that can use both magic and swords? Dwarves? Elves? Ogres? Kobolds? Murlocs? Werewolves?"

Black Knight: "Elves are very proud and will not easily join forces with others to fight."

Adrian: "Dwarves are not usually good at this kind of thing."

"Werewolves and catmen don't get along. They curse at each other as soon as they meet."

"Not to mention the ogres, murlocs, and kobolds. They are evil races and will not join forces with the cat people."

"Then there is only one answer." The Blackhearted Mage laughed, "Humans! Humans have the racial talent [Diplomacy]. Only humans can establish a fragile master-servant relationship with a sensitive and xenophobic race like the Cat People."

Adrian: "You mean, the impostor stayed with the cat people?"

Blackhearted Mage: "This is quite possible. Every time my scout eagle flies over the cat people's village, the cat people will jump onto the treetops and attack my scout eagle, making it impossible for me to fly low for scout. What are they protecting?"

Black Knight: "It seems that we need to go to the Cat Village."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Black-hearted Wizard suddenly turned his head and raised his hand. A purple light flashed, and a reconnaissance eagle took shape from the purple light and flew towards the big tree on the right side in front.

A white owl immediately flew up from the big tree.

The scout eagle pounced at the white owl, and the two raptors collided in mid-air. With a snap, purple arcane light spread out, and points of light danced all over the sky. The eagle's claws and talons grabbed each other's chests at the same time, and the two raptors died together, exploding into magical light particles.

The Blackhearted Archmage laughed loudly. “Former Court Knights, Archmage, Antonio! You’re old. The White-Feathered Owl that was once beyond my reach can now only tie with my Scouting Eagle. Hahahahahaha.”
