Chaotic Frontier: I Picked Up a Peerless Little Wife at the Start

Jia Hua did not disappoint Lin Hui.

He arrived with his men early the next morning.

Jia Hua brought along a burly man.

This man had a large, square face, a curly beard on his chin, and cold eyes.

He was dressed very lightly, without even a coat in this weather, his bare arms exposed, making him look like a demon god standing there.

He took a step forward, looked around, and immediately frowned.

This village, with only a few dozen households scattered around, doesn't look like a place where blacksmithing is possible to anyone.

He glared at Jia Hua, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

"Oh dear, old man, you have such a fiery temper."

Jia Hua hurriedly pulled Sun Sangeng back: "Even if you're going to leave, can't you at least take a look at what the master has prepared? If it doesn't appeal to you, I won't stop you."

Sun Sangeng impatiently shook off Jia Hua's hand, pointed at the village, and said, "Look at this place! Where is what you were talking about? The unparalleled blacksmith's furnace?"

"Don't stop me, I'm going back to forge weapons, I'm going to create a weapon that is unparalleled in the world."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Jia Hua stopped him again, pointing to the courtyard in front and saying, "See this? It's right here. You have to believe me, this owner is different from others. If he says he has a good furnace, he definitely has one."

Sun San glanced impatiently at Lin Hui's courtyard.

"Okay, I'll go check. If you're lying to me, I...I..."

"Alright, let's go." Jia Hua pulled Sun Sangeng into the courtyard. Sun Sangeng's face was full of reluctance, and as they reached the door, he said, "Don't lie to me."

"If I'm lying to you, I'm a dog."

Jia Hua quickly gave his apprentice a look, and the apprentice immediately understood and went up to knock on Lin Hui's door.

As the gate opened, Lin Hui saw an opportunity to pull someone outside.

"Master Jia, who is this?"

He looked the burly man behind him up and down, and realized that the man was indeed a blacksmith.

"Master, this is Master Sun Sangeng. His blacksmithing skills are absolutely unparalleled on the border."

Then he added, "Master, I've brought the person to you. Whether you can keep him or not depends on your abilities."

Lin Hui smiled knowingly; as long as someone came, there was no one he couldn't keep.

"So it's Master Sun. I've heard so much about you."

Sun Sangeng immediately gave him a cold look: "Long time no see, my foot! Where's the good stuff you were talking about?"

Lin Hui chuckled: "Master Sun, don't be in such a hurry. Since I've invited you here, I'm sure I have something good to show you. Please come in."

The two followed Lin Hui into the house.

It was breakfast time for Lin Hui's family, and the breakfast was laid out on the table, steaming hot.

This shocked Master Sun, because there are very few families in the villages who can afford to eat so lavishly these days.

Lin Hui pointed to the chair and said, "Master Sun, please sit down. Have you eaten? We just finished cooking. Please don't be shy, Master Sun, have some."

Sun Sangeng glanced at the table full of food and casually waved his hand.

"I'm not hungry, hurry up, let me see."

"I still need to forge weapons; I don't have time to waste here."

His tone was extremely arrogant, which made Ling Ziyi, who was standing to the side, frown deeply, wishing she could go up and punch him.

Shui Feiyuan was even more surprised, thinking to herself, "Who is this person, talking so arrogantly?"

Lin Hui winked at the two of them, signaling them to go outside and avoid the situation.

The two went out hand in hand.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Jia Hua smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Master, Master Sun is just like that. He lives alone and has no friends except for that iron hammer. If he offends you and the two ladies with his words, please bear with him."

Lin Hui waved his hand: "It's alright, people with real skills are usually like this."

As he spoke, he pulled a stack of papers out of his pocket.

"Master Sun, what do you think of these?"

Sun Sangeng took the paper with disdain and casually glanced at it.

I thought Master Sun would throw it away without hesitation, but after just one glance, he was completely attracted by the blueprints in front of him. His eyes changed completely, and there was no longer any disdain. He clearly saw the treasure in his eyes.

Soon, Master Sun was completely absorbed, sitting there motionless, watching with utter fascination.

Seeing Sun Sangeng's appearance, Jia Hua was alarmed and whispered in his ear, "Master, what's wrong with him?"

Are you confident?

Lin Hui nodded. If the things he drew couldn't attract a blacksmith who was single-mindedly focused on his skills, then it could only mean that the blacksmith lacked skill.

Jia Hua chuckled as he looked at the infatuated Sun Sangeng.

This was the first time he had ever seen Sun Sangeng staring so intently at the blueprints.

Sun Sangeng's expression kept changing, from initial disdain to shock, and finally, he would laugh one moment and frown the next. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was crazy.

After a long while, he finally nodded with a smile.

"Good stuff, good stuff."

Looking at Lin Hui with curiosity, he asked, "Brother, did you design all of this?"

Lin Hui neither confirmed nor denied it.

Sun Sangeng continued, "Such an ingenious design is truly unheard of. If one of these were made, it would be an absolutely extraordinary piece."

Lin Hui smiled.

But Sun Sangeng's mouth was completely opened.

"Look here, what were you thinking when you designed this handle? And look at the blade, the back is thick and heavy, the blade is light, and what does 'one-piece forging' mean here? And why is it covered with clay for quenching here?"

"It's very simple. The handle and blade are made from a single piece of high-quality steel, making the knife more durable, sharper, and more impactful. It also uses clay hardening, and I also know about oil hardening."

Lin Hui then explained, "Actually, quenching in soil changes the strength of the blade, making it more durable and resistant to chipping even after numerous cuts."

Sun Sangeng nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, how come I didn't think of that? Using soil to change the temperature of the blade is a brilliant design. A blade made this way will surely cut through iron like mud."

Seeing Sun Sangeng so excited, Jia Hua leaned over to look for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

He asked, "Old man, are you really that powerful?"

"What do you know? You're incredibly knowledgeable."

Sun Sangeng looked at the design drawings in his hand, becoming more and more delighted, unable to take his eyes off them.

"I dare to sleep. I could spend my whole life designing and forging these weapons and still not be able to design a single one, let alone forge a finished product."

He looked at Lin Hui with excitement, his eyes now completely changed.

That was fervor, that was admiration.

"What kind of knife is this?"

Lin Hui pointed to the design drawings: "Look, this sword has a light blade, suitable for cavalry, I call it the Flying Feather Sword. This one has a thick back, suitable for infantry combat, I call it the Tang Horizontal Sword. And this one, this one has a thick blade, paired with a very heavy hilt, so it can be used with both hands, I call it the Mo Dao."

Sun Sangeng listened intently to the names of the knives and gazed at the exquisite design drawings, completely absorbed in the experience.

Seeing Sun Sangeng completely absorbed, Jia Hua smiled helplessly.

That's it now.
