Unexpectedly, after arriving in a different world, I still cannot avoid the fate of being exploited by capitalists!
That's all, anyway, my understanding is gradually increasing, and my strength will gradually increase. The more I go on, the more powerful I will be. It doesn't matter if I suffer a little in the early stage of development.
After making a simple lunch and having enough to eat and drink, Shen Cong left the courtyard and came to the street.
There are people coming and going on the street and there are many shops, so there is naturally no shortage of workers.
However, not all jobs are suitable for Shen Cong. He needs to find a job that pays well a month to maintain his practice.
After some comparison, Shen came to a blacksmith shop.
The world of martial arts is an era of cold weapons. Warriors who travel around the world will basically buy weapons for self-defense. This is a very popular profession.
...
"Apprentices have no money and are provided with food. After leaving the army, the formal salary is two taels of silver per month and three meals are provided, including meat and fish. If you forge good weapons, there will be additional silver rewards."
"Then when can it be considered as a disciple?"
"Hey, it all depends on your level. Some people are strong enough and have good understanding. They can start teaching in a few months and make money, while some people can't start teaching in two or three years. There are also people who can't bear this crime. He ran away halfway."
"Okay, when should I start?"
"You can start now if you want."
"OK."
The steward took Shen Cong into the blacksmith shop, attracting the attention of a group of blacksmiths.
"Look, look, there's a new guy here."
"This guy looks fair and fair, he doesn't look like he can do our job."
"Guess how long he can last?"
"I guess I won't be able to work for a long time before I have to run away."
"Not everyone can afford our iron rice bowl. Hehehehe..."
The test in the blacksmith's shop, and the only test, is strength. Without strength, no matter how good your understanding is, it will be in vain.
Amid everyone's teasing, Shen Cong casually picked up a newly cast bolas and started swinging it around the shop. His relaxed and carefree look made everyone's teasing quieter, and his face gradually became serious.
"I didn't expect that this kid actually has some stuff."
However, when it came time to forge the iron embryo, everyone was completely impressed by Shen Cong.
After listening to a master's explanation, Shen Cong used iron tongs to take out a red-hot iron embryo from the furnace, and repeatedly hammered it with a hammer. Regardless of the force or angle, he did not look like a first-time blacksmith.
In fact, comprehension has a strong amplifying effect not only in martial arts, but also in blacksmithing and other aspects.
When Shen Cong came in, he had already seen some masters forging iron embryos. Coupled with the explanation just now, he understood it well and learned it naturally.
"Good boy, is this really your first day learning to blacksmith?"
The people in charge couldn't help but be a little suspicious.
Shen Cong nodded.
"There's nothing to lie about, right?"
"It seems that you are really born to eat this kind of rice. Okay, then you can stay. I think you will be able to become a regular worker in two months at most."
Turns out, the stewards were wrong.
A month later, Shen Cong officially became a blacksmith, with a monthly salary of two taels of silver, meat for every meal, and the weapons he forged were astonishing even to a ten-year-old master.
The reason for all this is due to the increase in understanding and the improvement of Ben Lei Jue.
The Ben Lei Jue has been practiced to the second level, and is about to break through to the third level.
The improvement brought about by the increase in understanding is not proportional, but in a curve. The speed of increase in understanding is far less than the speed of improvement through one's own practice.
It's like an adult is only ten years older than a child, but can do many times more than a child.
As Shen Cong's cultivation improved, his strength also gradually increased, and he became more comfortable when forging iron.
With his current strength, he can easily defeat professional Sanda in a matter of seconds. This is only a month. What if it is a year? What about ten years?
I don’t know what level of terror he will rise to.
And he vaguely felt that his physical fitness was gradually improving. The most obvious change was in his skin. It was much tougher and more insulated than before. He didn't feel too hot when standing next to the stove. .
clang clang clang...
In the evening of this day, the blacksmiths were working, and the steward walked in with a smile.
"Masters, please take a rest and come to collect this month's moon silver."
This was probably the most cheerful day when Shen Lai came here. The blacksmiths happily put down their work and gathered towards the steward.
"Zhang Ergou, two and a half."
"Chen Dashan, two taels."
"Song Taiping, four taels."
...
The wages of the blacksmiths vary from high to low. The basic salary is two taels, but if you make high-quality products, you will be rewarded with silver. This is what the manager said before.
After getting the money, Zhang Ergou, who had a stubble on his face, immediately shouted to go to Goulan to listen to music.
"Brothers, let's go to Zuixiang Tower tonight and get drunk before resting. How about that?"
"Zhang Ergou, aren't you afraid that your mother-in-law will tear you apart?"
"Afraid? I'm afraid that I won't be able to withstand the ice and fire of Zuixianglou Xiaohong."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The blacksmiths laughed heartily.
"You go ahead, I won't go."
The old master Song Taiping put away his four taels of broken silver, which aroused Zhang Ergou's complaints.
"Master Song, you are too disappointed."
"Hey, my son is already ten years old, and he can enter the martial arts hall to learn martial arts. Our country is built on martial arts, and only by learning martial arts can we get ahead. If it hadn't been for my family's decline, I might have been promoted to a high-ranking class and been invited to do it. If you don't make offerings, why do you have to work so hard here?"
"Look at my memory, I almost forgot that Master Song was a martial artist before. By the way, Master Song, you have been a warrior, why don't you just tell us about warriors. We make weapons for warriors every day, but we don't know warriors yet. What is it like?"
"This martial artist is actually similar to us blacksmiths. They study hard and practice, and practice makes perfect. But practicing martial arts is much more difficult than blacksmithing. For blacksmiths, as long as they are not afraid of hard work, nine out of ten people can do it.
Among those who practice martial arts, there may not be even one out of a hundred. "
"Hi~! No way? If that's the case, can our blacksmith shop still sell so many weapons?"
"That's right, Mr. Song, why are you deceiving us like this?"
Song Taiping was not angry and said with a smile:
"Strictly speaking, the warriors we see in daily life are not warriors, but can only be regarded as apprentices. Warriors must enter the martial arts before they can truly enter the door of martial arts!
The martial arts is divided into nine levels, with levels nine to seven being the lower third level, levels six to four being the middle third level, and levels three to one being the upper third level.
The lower third level strengthens the muscles, bones and skin, making you extremely powerful and capable of punching tigers.
The third grade in the middle strengthens the internal organs, spits it into the heart, and makes the body as light as a swallow, flying over the eaves and walking over the wall.
The third level is Evolution Dantian, which stores Qi in the belly and can be used as desired. You can kill people by picking leaves from a hundred meters away! "
