Chapter 1894 Level Suppression

If they had such strength, they would not do such a deceitful and despised thing.

So when they saw what was said on the world channel, they were so scared that their necks shrank after thinking about the quality problems of the goods they sold.

It was as if the one who was chopped and fed to the dogs was not someone else, but themselves.

Originally, since they had grabbed a lot of orders from the Merchant Alliance, everyone's life was enjoyable.

After all, compared with the previous tight clothing and living, the current life is definitely rich.

Don't look at the price of their goods. It's not expensive, only about half of the price of the Merchant Alliance.

But in fact, their profits are at least several times greater than those of the Merchant Alliance.

Because the quality of the Merchant Alliance is at least several times that of theirs, and the cost of labor is not calculated here.

For example, a senior blacksmith like Tang Yan, ordinary people ask him to forge weapons, even if it is just to forge the most ordinary weapon, the price is estimated to be enough to buy some high-level weapons.

But there are still people who want to visit him and ask him to come out and help forge a real peerless weapon.

Because everyone knows that the weapons made by Tang Yan, even the lowest level ones, will be much better than the high-level weapons sold by other merchants.

This is the awesomeness of the blacksmith. With different techniques, some metals with poor materials can be forged into materials of excellent quality.

Many people may say that any blacksmith can refine this kind of forging, right?

Isn't it just a few more processings, the impurities in the ore will naturally be removed, and the remaining ones will naturally be fine products.

There is indeed nothing wrong with this statement, but if it is really that simple, then why are there primary, intermediate, and advanced masters among blacksmiths?

Take a piece of ore as an example. If you make a weapon, an ordinary blacksmith may need nearly 500 iron ores to make a so-called peerless weapon.

At this time, if a mid-level blacksmith is replaced to make it, this peerless weapon may only need 300 kilograms of iron ore.

Finally, there are Tang Yan, the top blacksmith in the Sky Island world.

If he were to forge the same weapon, maybe 100 kilograms of iron ore would be enough.

The difference between the advanced and the elementary can be seen with a little comparison.

For the same weapon, the materials needed by the advanced forger can be reduced by several times.

But don't underestimate this difference. If it is forging ordinary weapons, there may be no difference.

Because the most basic iron ore is still easy to mine in the Sky Island World.

But when it comes to some rare precious metals, they are rare even in the Sky Island World.

At this time, just finding a piece of material requires a lot of effort.

Not to mention the scale of mining hundreds of kilograms or thousands of kilograms.

And the most important point is that no matter what forger, forging weapons is not 100% successful.

Sometimes a little worse level, or a weaker grasp of the fire, or a lower frequency of hammering, may cause the final level of this weapon.

Even if there is no damage, it may be much lower than the level expected at the beginning, which is definitely a big discount.

If you don't have much material to begin with, and you encounter this kind of abnormal performance, then it is very likely that the material this time will be wasted, and the weapon cannot be forged.

If you want to find another piece of the same metal ore, it may take an unknown amount of time.

If you find a forging master of Tang Yan's level at that time, such problems will naturally be much less.

Not to mention Tang Yan's level, the probability of problems with weapons forged by him is still very small.

Even if it is unpleasant, Tang Yan also failed and wasted the metal ore sent.

But as I said just now, if you find a low-level forger to forge this peerless weapon, the material required is at least 2-3 times more than Tang Yan.

This is still the case of the most common iron ore. The more precious the metal, the higher the level of the weapon, the more skills and ore are needed.

At this time, the multiples of materials used by low-level forgers and high-level forgers may be more than dozens of times.

Even if the investment is only a few times each time, but because of the failure factors added together.

Therefore, the number of times that a junior blacksmith fails is high, so naturally he needs more materials than a senior blacksmith by ten or a hundred times.

At this time, if you have enough materials and a lot of money, it doesn’t matter.

But if you don’t have enough materials, and you only have a little bit, then you will have a higher chance of success if you ask Tang Yan.

Because the same materials may only have one chance for a junior blacksmith.

Once you fail, it’s all over.

But with Tang Yan, a senior blacksmith, these materials can be forged at least three times.

Even if Tang Yan is unlucky, as long as he succeeds once in three times, the person who asks him to forge will not lose money.

And the no loss here refers to the situation where the junior blacksmith is lucky and succeeds in one time.

Otherwise, if the other party fails to forge continuously, Tang Yan will naturally kill the other party as long as he succeeds.

In addition to the loss of materials, the more advanced the equipment, the more time it takes to forge.

Let a junior blacksmith forge a high-level equipment, let's not talk about the success rate and the amount of materials consumed.

Let's put aside the question of whether he has the ability to forge this level of equipment.

Let's just assume that the junior blacksmith has enough ability to complete this weapon.

But the time required is likely to be an astronomical figure.

Even Tang Yan spent several months to forge Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji.

You should know that Tang Yan is one of the few high-level blacksmiths in the Sky Island world.

Even someone with his strength needs several months, forging day and night.

If a junior blacksmith were to forge this weapon, even if he could succeed, the time spent would be at least several times that of Tang Yan.

At least one year, at most three to five years.

If this weapon is really waiting for it to come out, it may be too late.

Because there are fights every day in this Sky Island world, the demand for weapons is getting higher and higher.

Especially a high-level weapon, when the two sides go to war, it may be the key to determine the outcome.

At this time, others have spent a lot of money to hire someone to make this high-level weapon.

As a result, after you, a junior forger, accepted the order, you were unable to complete it and could not ship it.
