Zhang Chunlin spoke his thoughts excitedly. Zhou Shu’s expression became a little strange. He suddenly said, “Odd to even change?”

Zhang Chunlin was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“Nothing.” 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.

“This has to be done according to the properties of different forging materials. There’s no need for a Forging Master to take action. A Forging Apprentice can complete this step with a little training,” Zhang Chunlin said excitedly. “What we need to do is to forge a large smelting furnace!”

Zhang Chunlin’s idea was actually somewhat similar to the steelmaking method on Earth in Zhou Shu’s 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 Earth’s in Zhou Shu’s previous life. There were many things that couldn’t 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.

“That’s a very good thought.” Zhou Shu nodded. “Have you thought about how to forge the smelting furnace? Also, where will the fire seed come from?”

“I’ve already designed the smelting furnace and thought about the fire seed. We can draw earth fire to forge it. This way, we won’t need martial artists to activate the true fire,” Zhang Chunlin said seriously. “I’ve calculated that the temperature of the earth fire is enough to smelt ordinary forging materials.

“However, materials like Heaven Refining Stone still need true fire to be smelted.”

Zhang Chunlin had seriously considered this question. He gave answers to all of Zhou Shu’s 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 ma.s.sive amount of forging materials happened to give him a chance to practice it.

If not for the fact that he wasn’t familiar with Zhou Shu, he would have suggested this idea long ago.

Over the past few days, although Zhang Chunlin still couldn’t see through Zhou Shu, he was at least certain that Zhou Shu was really human.

Moreover, he was a human who hadn’t 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.

“Very well!” Zhou Shu said. “Let’s do it your way. There are a few things you need to pay special attention to!”

Zhou Shu explained some of the processes of industrialization in his previous life to Zhang Chunlin.

Zhang Chunlin’s eyes lit up as he looked at Zhou Shu with admiration.

There were many things that he couldn’t figure out. But when he heard this, he was certain that Zhou Shu’s method was feasible!

Zhou Shu was able to a.n.a.lyze 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 Xia’s King of the South was true?

This thought flashed across Zhang Chunlin’s mind.

“This process is called industrialized forging,” Zhou Shu continued, “If you succeed, you will be the founder of industrialized forging.

“You deserve more credit.”

Zhang Chunlin shook his head. The points Zhou Shu had just mentioned were the most important points. If he couldn’t solve these points, he wouldn’t 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 wouldn’t have been able to follow his train of thought so quickly.

“That’s enough. We don’t have to argue about this.” Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. “If we succeed, your name will definitely be in the history of forging.

“The most important thing now is to actually make it.”

Zhou Shu continued, “To smelt materials in bulk, you need to know the nature of the forging materials like the back of your hand. You can’t afford to make any mistakes. You’ll have to keep an eye on it.”

“Leave it to me. Don’t worry,” 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.

“You’ve been imprisoned by demonic beasts for many years, and your physical condition has been bad. This is somewhat disadvantageous to your work.” Zhou Shu took out a few finger-sized pills. “I have some nourishing pills here. Take them back and take them when you have time.

“I need to stress again that what we’re going to do is important and that we only have this one chance. We can’t afford to make a mistake!”

Zhang Chunlin took the pills from Zhou Shu and said with a solemn expression, “Don’t 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!”

He turned and left, leaving Zhou Shu.

The corners of Zhou Shu’s 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.
