Chapter 46: Thirty thousand jin of refined iron, did you rob the imperial treasury?

"Refined iron? The reputation-based marketplace actually provides refined iron?!"

Looking at the special item, refined iron, Lin Yang couldn't help but say excitedly!

Originally, Lin Yang thought having a bit of raw iron ore would be good enough!

Unexpectedly!

His reputation-based marketplace was so powerful!

Refined iron!

The most time-consuming part of forging armor was hammering iron ore into refined iron!

Now that he had this, that step was directly omitted!

"One hundred reputation points to exchange for one jin of refined iron; this is simply too cost-effective!"

He silently looked at his current reputation value, which had a little over one million left!

If he used one million to exchange for refined iron!

Then he could exchange for a full ten thousand jin of refined iron!

This was ten thousand jin of refined iron!

Although Lin Yang did not know much about history!

But he vaguely remembered that the iron production of the Han Dynasty did not even reach ten thousand tons!

Converting it, that was only about twenty million jin!

This number sounded large, but in reality, the production was extremely low!

The steel production of modern society started in the hundreds of millions of tons!

The two could be said to be worlds apart!

"Hoo!"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yang gradually calmed down!

With this refined iron, the armor he wanted was finally within reach!

"System, will these special items refresh every day?"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yang asked the system!

He hadn't forgotten!

The items in this reputation-based marketplace refreshed every day!

Those instant noodles, ham, etc., because they had purchase quotas, refreshing meant refreshing the purchase quotas!

But there was no prompt for refined iron!

"Ding, host, the special items in the tier-three reputation-based marketplace will refresh randomly once every week!"

In his mind, the system's prompt rang out!

Hearing that it refreshed once a week, Lin Yang's heart tightened!

Refreshing once a week!

Didn't this mean he needed to seize this week's time well!

Otherwise, after a week, it might not be refined iron after the refresh!

"Reputation is still not enough!"

Glancing at the reputation value after the upgrade, Lin Yang felt a hint of urgency!

"No, starting tomorrow, I must increase my efforts to earn reputation!"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yang decided that for the next week, he would sprint for reputation!

With a goal, Lin Yang fell asleep contentedly!

The next day, early morning.

"Hmm? The lord is not here?"

Cheng Yu looked at the empty county office and asked the clerk who had arrived early with suspicion!

"My lord, the lord took Magistrate Li and the others out early this morning!" The clerk saw it was Cheng Yu, thought for a moment, and then replied, "I heard the lord say it seemed like he was going out to serve porridge?!"

The clerk racked his brains and vaguely remembered the keyword "serving porridge"!

Hearing that Lin Yang had taken Li Gang and the others out to serve porridge, Cheng Yu's brows furrowed tightly!

Yesterday, Lin Yang had still asked him to increase the construction of weapons!

Why did it change today?

Cheng Yu couldn't understand, so he stopped paying attention and waited for Lin Yang to return to ask him about it!

Meanwhile, outside Jiangdu County.

"My lord, you are truly a good official!"

"Sob, sob, thank you for the white porridge, you are our benefactor!"

"This white porridge is simply too fragrant, thank you for the lord's grace!"

"Child, quickly, bow and thank the lord for his reward!"

"......"

In a rural village, as words of gratitude were spoken one after another, Lin Yang stood behind the crowd and revealed a smile!

"Ding, reputation +20!"

"Ding, reputation +20!"

"Ding, reputation +20!"

"Ding...."

A series of prompt sounds rang out, making Lin Yang very satisfied!

"Let's go, to the next place!"

He said to Li Gang and the others, and Lin Yang led the group toward the next location!

In order to expand his reputation value!

Not only were porridge stalls set up within Jiangdu County!

Lin Yang also wanted to include all the villages surrounding Jiangdu County!

Now, with 150,000 portions of white porridge every day!

Lin Yang wanted to take the initiative to maximize his gains!

Glancing at the sky, Lin Yang was full of energy at this moment!

For the next week, Lin Yang took Li Gang and the others to the villages around Jiangdu County early every morning!

In one full week, he had almost run through all the surrounding villages!

Anyway, the government affairs of Jiangdu County were handled by Cheng Yu!

Lin Yang could let go and act!

One week later, Jiangdu County office.

"Did the lord set out today?"

Early in the morning, upon Cheng Yu's arrival, he habitually asked the clerk who had arrived early!

"My lord, the lord did not go out today, but told you to go to the iron shop!"

The clerk bowed and relayed Lin Yang's order to Cheng Yu!

"Iron shop?!"

Frowning slightly, Cheng Yu looked at the clerk, then strode out toward the iron shop on the east side of the county!

After only half a moment's journey, when Cheng Yu arrived at the iron shop, he saw Lin Yang, who was excitedly wearing a suit of forged black iron armor!

"Eh, my lord, what is this?"

"Haha, Zhongde, you've finally come!"
