Starting Off With A Blacksmith Workshop - Chapter 3
Chapter 3: Goldfinger Received
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“One percent … ninety-nine percent, one hundred percent. Initiation complete. Loading successful. Enjoy your use.”
When Li Zhenhua heard this voice, even if he was slow to react, he knew that this situation seemed to be getting the Goldfinger. He wondered if he had been so unlucky recently because he was saving up luck for this Goldfinger.
He didn’t know what kind of cheat the virtual laboratory was. The name sounded like science and engineering.
Just as Li Zhenhua was thinking, he felt as if he was being summoned. He knew that this was probably his cheat.
After locking the door, he hurried to the second floor and lay on the bed. Li Zhenhua closed his eyes eagerly, not rejecting the call in his heart.
When Lee opened his eyes again, he was in a white room about two meters square.
The room was empty of everything but himself.
Before he could react, a screen appeared in front of him, followed by a number of notifications.
“Lab Prerequisites: Own your own blacksmith shop, complete; sell a blacksmith product, complete.
The lab activated the loading program. Load successful.
Enjoy.’
Li Zhenhua looked at the notification on the screen. This was a complete no-good product. It didn’t mention its origin. He didn’t know when it had found him. He didn’t know its specific function. There wasn’t even an instruction manual.
And he had made it pleasant to use! He didn’t even know how to use it.
However, Li Zhenhua also extracted some information from these hints.
One point was to own a blacksmith shop. This was the premise of everything. Li Zhenhua, who had no idea what he would do in the future, suddenly thought that it would be fine if he could do a good job at this blacksmith shop.
The second was to sell an item produced by the blacksmith.
In other words, this blacksmith shop had to be open for business. It couldn’t just sit there and not operate.
Just as Li Zhenhua decided to continue working as a blacksmith, another notification appeared on the screen in front of him.
“As the user has decided to focus on the blacksmith’s shop as a career, the blacksmith’s shop will now be issued with relevant rewards.
1. Ingenuity
2. Eye of Analysis.
Two functions began to load. Please replenish the nutrients your body needs in time after loading.
Loading… Loading complete. Continue to enjoy your use.’
Li Zhenhua did not feel anything unusual in this room.
However, looking at the two functions that had been loaded, he was momentarily confused.
Looking around at the empty white room, Li Zhenhua could not help but feel at a loss.
He wondered if he was going to be locked in this room forever.
Just as he was thinking about it, something changed in front of him. The room was gone, and all he saw was a roof with only a light tube.
Then Li Zhenhua sensed that his stomach was sending out a message of hunger. He felt hungry. Then the feeling became stronger and stronger. He felt as if his stomach was about to be digested.
Enduring the hunger in his stomach, Li Zhenhua quickly went to find something to eat.
However, he had only returned yesterday and had not had time to purchase anything. He hurriedly ran downstairs.
Fortunately, it was a big show today. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for him to go shopping.
At this morning’s fair, Li Zhenhua was at all the food stalls.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the fried dough sticks stall.
Those who felt that the food was greasy even went to the vegetable store to buy two Western persimmons and cucumbers to relieve their boredom.
After this trip, there was something in Li Zhenhua’s stomach. It was no longer in a state of digestion.
On the way home, he chugged down a bottle of Fat Otaku Happy Water and belched contentedly.
“Ah, comfortable. Who invented this thing? It’s sweet and has steam.
Especially after a belch. I wonder what this is made of.”
Just as Li Zhenhua was thinking this, a line of words appeared in front of his eyes. ‘The industry does not fit, analysis failed. The Eye of Analysis cannot intervene in the analysis.’
Li Zhenhua looked at the line of words in front of him and suddenly remembered one of the two functions that had just been loaded.
Could it be that the Eye of Analysis could analyze all kinds of things? But why couldn’t it analyze them?
‘The industry doesn’t fit. What kind of industry is this?’
Could it be my blacksmith profession? Thinking of this, Li Zhenhua quickened his pace and ran towards the blacksmith shop.
Li Zhenhua opened the door and ran towards the shelves. He grabbed a shovel from the shelf and just stared.
It worked this time. Information about the shovel appeared in front of him.
‘Flathead anvil: weighs 540 grams,
Material: Iron + Carbon •
Direction of Use: Suitable for farm work, tufts of things, turning soil, loading and unloading carts, etc.’
When Li Zhenhua saw this, he knew that his eyes had really mutated. He actually had the ability to analyze things. The basic information of this shovel appeared.
Li Zhenhua also looked at the various tools from the shelves one by one. Information about each tool was displayed and the composition of the materials was listed.
It could be said that Li Zhenhua was like a child trying to analyze the Eye of Analysis with all kinds of tools.
Then, he thought that since this Eye of Analysis function had appeared, there was another spiritual dexterity function that could be used.
Li Zhenhua stood on the first floor in a daze, thinking about what could activate this function.
He thought of the origami first. It was the easiest plan to test. Li Zhanhua pulled a newspaper from the edge of the counter and began to fold it according to something he knew how to fold.
Things like black-canopied boats and paper cranes were all brought out by Li Zhenhua.
However, when he folded it, the function he wanted to test did not show any effect. It was the same as usual, and he could not see how it was ingenious.
“That’s not right. Does this feature have to be applied in an industrial direction to manifest itself?”
After Li Zhenhua had no reaction, he could only think in this direction.
If you had an idea, you had to experiment. To test if the idea was right.
Li Zhenhua planned to open the furnace and burn a piece of iron to make something. He wanted to see if his guess was accurate.
Practice was the only criterion for testing the truth. The phrase applied everywhere. His was certainly the same.
With that thought in mind, Li Zhenhua went to the courtyard and headed straight for the coal pile.
This furnace had not been fired for three years since his grandfather left and he went to university. Of course, the coal over there had been there for so long.
The first step in forging was to sift through the coal. Without good carbon, one could forget about forging good iron.
Li Zhenhua took the dustpan and sorted the pieces of coal, throwing the good carbon into the dustpan.
Li Zhenhua was about to take down a piece of carbon when his Eye of Analysis prompted again.
“Iron carbon, which can be used as fuel in a furnace;
Common coal: available for heating;
Coal gangue: available for burning cement.’
