Knight’s Empire

After a simple welcome, Derek said of his goal: "I need to recruit 10 recruits, a servant and a blacksmith."

Andrew was a little surprised. The first two requirements were very simple. What do you want the blacksmith to do?

He couldn't help reminding: "Derke, the blacksmiths in the village can repair farm tools at most and hit a few spearheads. The quality of a simple iron sword cannot be guaranteed. If you are repairing weapons, you don't need to recruit a blacksmith.

"Second uncle, don't worry, I have other uses."

"That's no problem. There happens to be a group of militiamen who have completed a training. They are all young and great guys. I asked for you, twenty of them were recruited, and the number was enough.

As for the blacksmith, the old blacksmith's son is about the same age as you, and he should have mastered some skills.

Andrew did care, and he even prepared in advance.

"I still need to buy a house. It's better to borrow the school yard."

"What kind of house to buy? It just so happens that the school yard on the outskey of the farmland where the security is located is complete. You live there and save me trouble.

Andrew waved his big hand. What is this? Anyway, it's his family property.

Derek thought that if he could save a lot of money, it would be impossible to put aside his relationship with his family, so he would take more benefits.

With the help of the ground snake, Derek's preparation went very smoothly, and the time was arranged in one day.

Bedding, bedding, daily necessities, Andrew are all included.

He even sent someone to move a few bags of wheat, which even saved food. Other relatives were not idle and sent people to send all kinds of gifts.

They are all very practical. The third uncle gave 30 spearheads.

The fourth uncle sent three pieces of simple leather armor.

The eldest aunt sent five iron swords.

...

In the blink of an eye, Derek didn't spend a penny, and the equipment was collected first.

Looking at the twelve great guys again, he almost started singing unhappily.

"Think about those years, my team had just opened, and there was only that... the first team of weapons. Forget it, it's too Versailles."

This is the happiness of nobles. How can a knight of ordinary people understand it?

The value of these relatives' gifts ranges from one or two gold coins to three or five gold coins, that is, he is the only one who chooses to go out, otherwise it must be less.

With the basic foundation, the first thing Derek did with the recruits was to build a blacksmith's stove.

That's right, it's the blacksmith's stove.

Little Tru, the son of the blacksmith, officially joined and was assigned under the army bar of the panel. Tru

Occupation: Army Blacksmith Level 1 (22/100)

Experience pool: 0/100

That's right, the coverage of the panel is larger than expected.

The new functions explored give Derek more choices.

Compared with licking blood with a knife, it is more profitable to do the arms business.

In particular, some weapons and equipment with high added value are very profitable.

A set of heavy armor for the whole body is sixty or seventy gold coins. How long does it take for ordinary people to earn it?

The other eleven recruits began to train, but the blacksmith Tru began his forging journey.

In fact, the profession of blacksmithing can support a family.

The reason why Little Tru appeared in the barracks was, of course, "voluntary".

The young master of the baron's family likes you. Isn't it voluntary? Believe it or not, the whole family will commit suicide by being stabbed in the back tomorrow.

Little Tru is ready to become a soldier, but after coming to the school field, he first built a simple stove and set up a table.

Then a hammer was handed over to him. Master Derek said to him very gently, "Little Tru, your family is a blacksmith for generations. Don't be polite if you lack anything. Go home and get it, and I will pay for it." I... I... can only play some farm tools and repair damaged weapons. Little Tru is about to cry. The master doesn't think that he can make weapons and armor, does he? When the sub-product comes out, won't he kill himself?

"I know, I'll hit the finger first. I'll take it for training. I won't come to you about the quality problem."

Master Derek is extremely talkative, but little Tru will believe it.

The credibility of the noble master... Well, the Ferrera family is still about credibility.

On that day, when little Tru came home and told the situation, Old Tru packed his equipment and sent it here.

If Derek hadn't accepted it, he would have been eager to be tortured for little Tru.

That's right, it's torture.

He can't do what he can't do. He expects Xiaotru to do it. Isn't he obviously toss people?

Derek didn't explain any more, but as soon as he set up the young master's posture, the Tru family was honest.

Before Lao Tru was about to leave, he burst into tears: "Kid, you must resist. I only have you, and I'm still waiting for you to retire."

Little Tru also burst into tears and felt that his future was uncertain.

As soon as he turned his head, Lao Tru came home and closed the door directly. Boy, let's hurry up and get another one.

It is said that Lao Tru will close down in the next few days.

...

Little Tru opened the furnace to make iron and began his forging career.

The next day, the recruits were trained.

"Sting!"

"Copt!"

"Sting!"

Click!!!

The spearhead is broken.

The quality of Xiaotru's spearhead is seriously unqualified.

Derek was expressionless and continued to command: "What are you looking at? Can you relax when the spearhead is broken? The enemy on the battlefield will not wait for you. Continue to... stab."

The training continues!

During the days of training, Andrew came over from time to time. Seeing that Derek was moderate, he couldn't find anything wrong.

As for the effect, you can't see it for a while.

On the contrary, Xiaotru let him have a lot of subtle words. After several persuasions, he can't be persuaded, but he can only forget it.

Anyway, let the third nephew go to meet and break the bleeding, buy a lesson, and the loss will not be much. In a blink of an eye, a month has passed.

Open the panel again, because the training intensity is higher and Derek's requirements are stricter. All eleven recruits have militia levels above level five.

And little Tru's progress was a little slower, and he was only promoted to the third level.

After the third level, the speed of experience acquisition slowed down again.

Judging from the current progress, it will take at least once a month to upgrade.

Tru

Occupation: Army Blacksmith Level 3 (11/100)

Experience pool: 0/100

After all, there is a limit to building weapons and equipment every day, which is far inferior to training.

And the later it is, the more difficult it is to gain experience.

After level 3, the spearhead created by Xiaotru is enough. The cost is only about 20 or 30 copper coins, which can easily be sold for 70 or 80 copper coins.

Little Tru can make three or five spearheads every day, and the profit basically fluctuates around 200 copper coins.

The official exchange price is 1 gold coin for 10 silver coins, and 1 silver coin for 100 copper coins.

However, the so-called official price is of no use, and the private exchange rate has been changing. 1 gold coin can be exchanged for about 15 to 17 silver coins, and 1 silver coin can be exchanged for 120 to 130 copper coins.

That is to say, a qualified blacksmith can earn more than one and a half silver coins a day.

He can earn two or three gold coins a year, which is three times the income of ordinary soldiers.

If you go further, you will earn more.

However, Xiaotru signed a deed of sale, and he can't run away.
