0042, leave the resource island and move on in the sea
The weight of ore is very large, so even if it is 1 million catties, it does not occupy much land.
Now that you have bronze ore, you can start smelting bronze.
[Smelting room] said that the time required for the production of different products is different.
The difficulty of smelting bronze ore is definitely much lower than that of iron ore.
After all, the melting point of bronze is less than 1100 degrees.
The melting point of iron needs to be as high as 1538 degrees.
This is why almost all ancient civilizations first entered the Bronze Age and then the Iron Age.
After all, for ancient craftsmanship, the temperature of the furnace can reach around 1100 degrees, which is almost the limit.
Iron needs more than 1500 degrees, which is difficult to achieve for a long time.
Now Lu Yun wants to start smelting bronze ore and extract pure bronze.
Like the previous [kiln room], this [smelting room] can also be produced automatically.
But the efficiency can be said to be extremely slow.
Moreover, for each [Smelting Room], there must be a hard worker in the workshop to help pull the blower.
Otherwise, the required temperature cannot be reached.
If the [Smelting Room] can be equipped with professional smelting technicians, the production efficiency will definitely be greatly improved.
At present, the [Mechanic’s Hut] has been upgraded to level 6, and the smelting mechanic will be unlocked.
But before that, Lu Yun thought about the dwarf hero Josephine. Since he is known as the god of forging, he must be proficient in forging.
So he called him over and asked directly, “Josephine, can you smelt ore?”
Josephine replied in a loud voice: “Go back to master, of course I will. What kind of mine do you want me to smelt?”
Lu Yun replied: “Bronze ore, the ore is in the warehouse, you can get it yourself.”
“Okay, master.” Josephine led the way.
Now that Josephine has joined to help smelt, it shouldn’t take too long to extract 1,000 catties of bronze, right?
The bronze ore that the system distributed to him this time has a copper content of 20%.
Don’t underestimate this 20%. In nature, the copper ore with the highest copper content generally does not exceed 15%.
These are given by the system, reaching a copper content of 20%, which is already a very high-quality ore.
Of course, this is in the mysterious turtle world, and it is possible that copper ore with higher copper content will appear in the future.
……………………………………………… ………………………………..
It has to be said that the efficiency of smelting copper ore by the original method is too slow.
Even with the blessing of Josephine, with only wood and the most primitive kilns, the production capacity is still very low.
Moreover, the materials that have been doubled a hundred times will not be doubled even after processing.
In other words, if Lu Yun produces bronze, there is only as much as it produces.
Because the bronze ore was given 10,000 catties before, but the actual amount was 1 million catties.
Now start refining bronze, and then refining a pound is a pound, and it cannot be doubled.
So this time, Lu Yun needs to extract 1,000 catties of bronze in full to complete the main mission.
It wasn’t until the middle of the night that Josephine finally refined 1,000 catties of pure bronze in full.
[Congratulations, you have successfully smelted 1,000 catties of bronze from the smelting room. 】
【You get reward forging house blueprint x1】
[New quest has been released: Please build a forge house and forge at least 10 bronze tools. 】[Quest Reward: Blueprint for Wood Workshop x1, Blueprint for Stone Workshop x1]
Lu Yun used [Forge House] and checked the properties of the forge house.
[Building: Forge House][Construction resources: wood x2000, stone x2000, terracotta x1000, bronze x1000 catties]
【Construction time: 1 day】
[Building output: Forge houses can create various metal tools, such as sickles, axes, hammers, saws, etc. You can also craft a variety of weapons, such as knives, swords, guns, armor, and more. 】[Construction consumption: gold, silver, copper, iron, and other metals][Building energy consumption: firewood, charcoal, coal, etc.][Production speed: different products require different time. If there are professional blacksmiths, the production efficiency will be greatly improved. 】[Architecture introduction: The forge house is a must-have building for you to enter the metal age. The tools it produces can greatly improve your work efficiency in all aspects. The weapons and equipment it produces can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of your troops. 】
……………………………………………… …………………………..
Time passes by in this way.
Three days later, the collection time for this unowned resource island has come, and it will disappear automatically.
And Lu Yun got all the personnel on the back of the black turtle long before it disappeared.
Then set sail and set foot on the journey of the sea again.
In the past three days, after Lu Yun completed the [forging house], he immediately arranged for Joseph to produce various bronzes.
Including the various tools used by the peons, as well as the weapons and armors that the militiamen need.
Josephine really deserves to be the god of forging, all the bronzes he made.
Each one is extremely finely crafted, the cutting edge is extremely sharp, and the quality is excellent.
Each one can be said to be the best among bronzes.
Of course, Josephine’s ability is far more than that.
He can also create many other incredible magical weapons, but because of the current lack of materials, he cannot create them.
Because Lu Yun now only has bronze raw ore, he can only smelt bronze.
The only metal material that Josephine could use on hand was bronze.
Being able to shoot bronze weapons of this quality has proven his forging strength.
