Chapter 346: Dumbfounded, very heavy, very heavy?
Craftsman's Office.
Ying Ying Zi Ye had just arrived here.
When he saw Gongshu Meng just walking out to the main gate.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Gongshu Meng bowed.
"No need for formalities."
"Miss Gongshu, I heard you forged a horse-chopping blade using meteorite iron?"
Seeing Gongshu Meng, Ying Zheng couldn't help but sigh.
Throwing Gongshu Meng into the Craftsman's Office was truly a wise choice.
"It has been forged."
"However, some accidents occurred."
"I might have to disappoint Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Gongshu Meng was somewhat embarrassed; after all, she was the successor of the Gongshu family.
But the weapon she made now felt somewhat unsatisfactory.
Because she couldn't reconcile the weight of this meteorite iron.
This meteorite iron was simply too heavy; no one could use it even after it was made.
What kind of weapon is a weapon that no one can use?
But she had no choice; the person who sent the meteorite said to forge a horse-chopping blade entirely out of meteorite iron.
At first, she hadn't thought about the weight problem.
Only after the melted meteorite iron was poured into the mold and formed.
Did she realize that no one could lift this horse-chopping blade at all, which was awkward.
Helpless, they could only cooperate with many people to sharpen the blade of the meteorite horse-chopping blade.
After all, this was requested from above, and they could only follow the requirements.
Later, she learned that this blade was requested by His Highness the Crown Prince.
At this time, Gongshu Meng was somewhat speechless; could anyone really use such a heavy horse-chopping blade?
"Where did the problem arise?"
"Is it a quality problem or?"
Ying Zheng was somewhat curious; could the successor of the Gongshu family not handle meteorite iron?
Was the difficulty of handling meteorite iron really that great?
Gongshu Meng glanced at Ying Zheng somewhat haughtily.
"My Gongshu family cannot make weapons with quality problems!"
Ying Ying Zi Ye was somewhat speechless upon hearing this.
"Then you said there was an accident."
"It's not a quality problem, then what is the problem?"
Gongshu Meng struggled for a moment, and her voice became smaller.
"It's that I didn't think about the weight problem at the beginning."
"The meteorite iron horse-chopping blade forged now is somewhat heavy."
"After it was forged, I realized that ordinary people cannot lift it."
"Most of the meteorite iron was used to forge this blade."
Speaking of this, Gongshu Meng was clearly feeling even more embarrassed.
Ying Ying Zi Ye's eyes lit up; the weight was a good thing!
Just because others couldn't lift it didn't mean he couldn't.
A horse-chopping blade couldn't possibly be heavier than a bronze cauldron, right?
"How heavy is it?"
"I haven't weighed it; Your Highness should experience it yourself."
"Let's go, take me to see it."
Ying Ying Zi Ye couldn't wait and walked inside.
After arriving at the great hall.
"Someone, go and carry that weapon up."
Sun Wu called a servant and gave instructions; the person responded and quickly headed toward the weapon warehouse.
After Ying Ying Zi Ye sat down, he looked at Sun Wu strangely.
"Sun Wu, is your word choice appropriate?"
"Are you sure it's 'carry' and not take it out?"
Sun Wu smiled bitterly and handed the tea to Ying Ying Zi Ye.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, this weapon might not be of any use."
"It's too heavy; even if someone can lift it, they can't swing it."
"An ordinary person can't lift it, so using 'carry' is understandable."
Ying Ying Zi Ye sipped his tea and waited patiently.
Anyway, he was already here, so a little time didn't matter.
Before long, Ying Ying Zi Ye heard footsteps coming from the side hall.
He looked toward the sound.
The scene he saw next left him quite speechless.
Good fellow.
He almost dropped the teacup he was holding to the ground.
He saw four servants, just like carrying a coffin, carrying the horse-chopping blade out with ropes tied around it.
It was truly carried out!
Damn, this was going too far.
How heavy could a blade be?
Did it need to be carried like this?
"Sun Wu, does your household not have food to eat or what?"
"It's just a blade forged from meteorite iron; even if it's heavy, it doesn't need four people to carry it, right?"
Ying Ying Zi Ye was quite speechless.
Things that two people could do, four people were doing.
This had the suspicion of wasting labor.
Could it be that there were too many people in the Craftsman's Office with nothing to do?
Sun Wu also looked at the four people in a daze.
"What is going on with you?"
"This blade isn't that heavy, is it?"
"Why are four people carrying it out together?"
After the four servants placed the blade on the ground, one of them said:
"Reporting to the Vice-Director, before this blade was sharpened, it could be held however one wanted, and two people were enough."
"But now that the blade of this horse-chopping blade has been sharpened, it is extremely sharp, and the blade cannot be touched."
"Therefore, we could only put the center of gravity on the handle, fearing an accident, so four people carried it together."
Sun Wu thought about it and felt it made sense. ===== CHAPTER 348 =====
