《Transmigrating Upgrade Specialist》Chapter 35 - Zhang Wu Ji's First Treasure (1)

Advertisement

In a blink of an eye, another six-day passed. The constructions of most of the building and houses are completed at last, with the remaining eight Tulaos is ongoing. Their completion is expected in another two to three days, and after so many days of construction and also the production of the Masonry Bricks, the resident's main focus started to change, moving from the sector of plantation into the construction sectors.

Of course, the production of such a top quality building materials were not their choices of export. For the alternative, Zhang Wu Ji changed the formulae of the Masonry Bricks, and come out with two alternative versions. The first one is a more porous and lightweight, suitable for exporting business, and for the second, they were made into a more durable and resistant to weeds and fungus.

It was taken into consideration when the Masonry Bricks Ver.2 and Masonry Bricks Ver.3 is created. Based on the county's environment, the two new versions are expected to sell like hotcakes in the other villages, towns, and cities because of their good durability and resistance. What's more, the cost of production is very low because Zhang Wu Ji's upgrade on the production materials is able to reduce the wastage during production.

Meanwhile, for Zhang Wu Ji, his attention is diverted into the establishments of medicine plantation inside the northern side of Wen Wu City. With a well organized and specialized greenhouses is created in between of each Tulou, this farming methods allowed the residents of the city to focus in a different focus of exportations.

Due to the richness of nutrients found in the soil, the Upper South State is always being hailed as the holy land for the medicinal herbs of any kind to flourish in this land. Like those medicinal used to concoct Wound Mending Pill, they were sometimes treated as a weed and being cleared instead because of the effortless access to a mass harvest. Added with the existence of Kind Heart Grass that only can grow in this state, the longevity of this land used to amass the medicinal herbs are expanded to even further, allowing the people living in this state to exploits the land.

Although Zhang Wu Ji did not possess such a mindset to exploit the resources in this land, part of his action does. The way he requested for the supply of minerals to be sent from the far away Bai Village is one of the examples. Similar to this action was the effort to help the Wen Wu City to expand their export business, which promotes the exploitation of the mines and the soil.

Luckily, based on the rough calculation using the supporting records and reports, Zhang Wu Ji can safely deduce that, as long this realm he's transmigrating into still possess the ability to churn out Inner Qi, the continent's metabolism will continue, from land to raw materials, to products, to consumers, and back to the land once more. Like a growing and recyclable source, the resources will not be lost, no matter how extreme is their exploitations.

With two professions and production are all arranged and handover to the residents, Zhang Wu Ji exhaled a breath full of unimaginable stress. It took him 18 days from the beginning of the planning to production, and rebuilding the whole north side of the Wen Wu City, before 80% of all their major rebuilding works is completed. In an estimated three to six more days, all the planned structures will be completed.

And that will also be the moment all the affected families will be able to start to move into their residence. The smallest of three to five members will be allocated into one of the Tulous, which will be able to support a total of 300 families, which means their number of residents living in a Tulou can reach between 900 people to 1,500 peoples.

As for the houses, their capacity can allow a family of over twenty members to live in there, which already includes the servant or relatives. A total of 128 families can be fitted into the houses, marking their number of the resident can fit up to 2,560 peoples.

Lastly, the thirty-two courtyard houses, with the capacity of fitting over one hundred members in the house. That will equal a total of 3,200 peoples. Excluding the shops which main purposes are for the reason to support their expanding purchasing power, the total project of rebuilding the whole north side of Wen Wu City is now able to fit a total of 2,560 families, with a capacity of holding an estimated number of 17,760 residents.

Although this estimated figure might not able to fight against the booming migration effect that will affect this location in another half a year once the news of this residential and production zone is spread to other villages and towns. Thus, to handle this sudden booming business in the uprising of properties, production, and exports, Zhang Wu Ji left a second development plan in the City Lord's hand, allowing him to retake the helm of rebuilding the Wen Wu City and increase their capacity of housing more residents and increase their productivities.

Without even calculating the number of days he was here, his four subordinates, Tang Yuan, Zhao Xiao Hua, Zhang Ya Pin, and Bai Hei Tie personally came to remind him. The reason for their arrival here is because the material delivered from the Bai Village is all been moved into his courtyard, with the excess material is safely kept outside of their building.

The ten batches of Mineral Ores ended up completely covering the ninth Courtyard, making it look like a rock forest rather than a proper courtyard suitable for living. And while on the inside, the farm productivity is going on very well, with the second batches of Taixia Condensed Dews, Yin Ling Fruits, and Sun-Facing Fruit is coming out in expected nine more days.

It was surprising to Zhang Wu Ji because he did not think that his fourth month inside of the Sect actually passes so fast. Within a blink of an eye, twenty-one day already passes, and it also indicates that he missed the merchant's wares once again.

"Well, I guess I will compensate that guy for not being around in the sect then." It wasn't a must to think like what he just did, but when Zhang Wu Ji considered the effort that merchant might place in his shoulder just for the sake to find materials that suitable in his eyes, his consideration towards the merchant become much better. In this world, there was only one thing a person cannot overlook, and its called;

Effort.

But while he was thinking about his matters, it was like how a ghost will appear if you think about them.

"Master Senior Ninth!" a familiar and close resemblance of the merchant's voice came into his ears. The following sound from the rolling wheels came as quickly until the person shows himself before this Master Senior.

"You! I was just thinking where should I go to find you!" the edge of Zhang Wu Ji's lips went to the edge of his cheeks when he saw the familiar face came closer to him. Based on how much effort is this guy puts in order to satisfy his vanity to purchase some treasures, how can he be skimpy in his small token of appreciation?

The Merchant opened up his stall, and this time, his guess is hitting right on the mind of Zhang Wu Ji again.

There were only three treasures in his stall as if he were keeping them for the sake to be sold to Zhang Wu Ji. But in the term of quality and usefulness, perhaps only Zhang Wu Ji can properly appreciate them. It was a no discussion sales once again, with the selling price of one million Gold Coins is accepted straight away. He packed the item together for the Master Senior and left to hunt for the next treasure once more.

But before he left, Zhang Wu Ji gave him a sentence that paid off all the effort he gave.

"From today onwards, come straight to me. I will purchase all your wares, and I trust your skills."

The merchant left, and Zhang Wu Ji followed his subordinates as they ride the carriage home. It was a specially made carriage, and the engine to move it is none other than his new pet, the Iron Scale Bull. Of course, this return also means that Zhang Wu Ji is multiple times richer again, with about 18 million Gold Coins in his hand at this moment.

And the wealth will continue to increase by time, because not only a quarter of the profit from exportation will be given to him, the future productivity from the upcoming harvest from the eight greenhouses in the north side of Wen Wu City too will give him a great supply to concoct many kinds of Pills for sales.

But most important of all, the cost of rebuilding the Wen Wu City is listed as a debt to the Apprentice Hall, which means, a few installments of payment from the Wen Wu City Lord will come sooner or later, making him another 50 Million Gold Coins richer!

Inside the carriage, the four subordinates are putting in their effort to cultivates, while Zhang Wu Ji is inspecting the treasures he got from the merchant as well from the City Lord after passing a court verdict to the 903 prisoners. Unlucky for them, all of them were to be imprisoned for twenty-five years before dispatched into the County's border for slavery works.

"This was all the items I needed. With all the mineral ores is delivered to my courtyard, it seems that the upcoming day will be busy." Zhang Wu Ji smiled. It was a happy news that he able to further upgrade his treasure, but at the same time, it means he will start to get busy all over again.

"I did not get any proper rest at all if I'm correct..." he thinks about what happened before once again. Before the incident in the Wen Wu City, he just managed to settle his three disciples from bothering him, and before he made all of them researching the Iron Thrusting Dirk, he was busy researching the secret behind his upgrade.

And in the middle of it, he was concocting the pills from the harvested material in the farm, preparing tea for those people, and handling some task form the four subordinates to handle. Now, he will have to start using all his time to craft his own cauldron again before he proceeds with other stuff.

"Tiring!" the complaint, but seeing how many treasures in his body, the complaint vanished.

Soon, the carriage stops as they were obstructed by the guards for the entrance to Seven Star Sect. Although it was an atrocious manner for them to dare to disturb the Master Senior Ninth's route, it was acceptable when the engine of the carriage was an Iron Scale Bull in its 9th Stage of Inner Qi Fighter.

Being the senior among the four subordinates, Tang Yuan quickly went out from the carriage to inform the guards that Master Senior Ninth, Zhang Wu Ji came back to the sect. The Iron Scale Bull is the pet of the Master Senior, so it should be allowed to enter the sect's vicinity.

It did not take too long for them to inspect Tang Yuan's words and allows the Iron Scale Bull with the passengers within the carriage to continue their journey until they reach the Ninth Courtyard. They left the carriage the moment the Iron Scale Bull went idle. It was obedient enough to go straight to the side where the farm and their tools are located, and rest there until it was time to eat.

Taking the chances everyone still in the middle of the courtyard at this moment, Zhang Wu Ji hand over the hundred Ten Petals Lotus Seed to Tang Yuan to be planted, and also instruct Bai Hei Tie to help him in handling and refining the materials from the Bai Village. With only two people working on the ten batches of Mineral Ores worth at least 20 tonnes is completely impossible, thus, left with no other choices, Zhang Wu Ji summoned his three disciples to come over to give him a hand.

With four tonnes of Mineral Ores to handle each person, their task is a very simple, completely refine all the mineral ores to separate them into eight different entity. The earlier the metal and mineral is processed and separated, the sooner he can begin to refine them.

But, even for Zhang Wu Ji himself, it was an extremely difficult process for him to completely separates the eight different materials perfectly. After a few pieces of research for the most efficient method, Zhang Wu Ji's mind is settled in the option to refine them into four kinds of material first, before he handled them personally.

The procedures to separates the Silica, Copper, Jade, and Mineral Clay is much simpler because the melting point of each material differs from each another. Before the Grounded Mineral Ores is placed into the furnace, Zhang Wu Ji sieve through the grounded powder to make sure that the content of the powder is completely smooth without any bigger and rougher sand particles.

With the preparation is complete, the Smelting process begins. Starting from the copper with the melting point of 1,100 Celcius, they were the first and also the earliest Metal that started to melt and form first. Making the processing repeatedly, Zhang Wu Ji teaches them in the way to melt the copper component correctly before the temperature went on higher, where it will soon reach the melting point of the Jade Mineral.

The powder within the furnace went through a few smelting processes repeatedly until the amount of Copper remained in the powder is lower than 5% before they increase the strength of the heat into over 1,250 Celcius, which is the required temperature for Jade.

Luckily, the Jade mineral in this world is much more different from his world. Back in his own world, Jade's texture is much more brittle, unable to be reform together once they were melted from the high temperature. In a side example, they were much more similar to Obsidian. But in this world, the Mineral value in far more different from the jade in his own world, where the manufacturer remolds the jade into the size they desire before the jade was polished, engraved, and crafted into a fine piece of the decorative cabochon, a name plaque, or a bracelet.

Similarly, their process will only stop once the remaining Jade in the grounded powder left with not over 5%. the continues for the 1,450 Celsius temperature for the Silica, and leaving the clay alone to be mixed into a pile of clay that soon separates into a Kaolin Clay and Mined Bone.

This procedure was able to be completed because the final part of the mineral is, in fact, the clay mix and not pure silica. using his System to read the overall composition in each of the grains formed from the heating, Zhang Wu Ji rearrange them into a different crucible to be melted and formed into the complete sizes of an Ingot.

But the process is still far from completion because unless he separates the two components from each material, the final quality of his product will end in a failure. The reason is easy to guess. The two components inside of the metal ingots or mineral were fine in their natural form but weren't good when forced to bond together.

Like the Pearl Silica and the Translucent Silica, this two were fine if they were separated and can be used in many different ways, but when they were mixed in a single entity, the result will be an extremely brittle material that cracks easily like a glasses and shatters from a small pressure.

Similar to copper, they were a conductive copper and non-conductive copper. When this two different copper type is mixed together, results called Corrosion Prone Copper is produced. As for the reason, it was called Corrosion Prone Copper is because this copper is what comes out from refining all the dietary nutrients in human's body.

As for the Jadeite and Nephrite mix, there wasn't a trouble on their quality because the Jade Mineral in this world is amazingly special, but when a creamy color of yellowish, Light-Green, Dark-Green, and Violet is mixed together, the results usually end up as trash Jade.

The only best product that can be separated with the usage of water in the mixture is the Kaolin Clay and Mined Bone because of the Mined Bone is not soluble through water but through oil.

Luckily...

In his world, exist a solution named borax, which he can use them as the catalyst not only to separates the two minerals but also overheat the materials as they feed it within the Furnace! This tempering process further strengthen the separated materials once they broke apart, resulting in a top quality material.

But...

Where can Zhang Wu Ji force himself to look for for the Borax, or also known as Sodium Borate in this world?

[Author's Note:]

Kindly do not take the smelting, planting, and common sense knowledge seriously in this novel because it was a transmigrated to another world, so some common sense is not applicable, but I will try to make it as understandable as I could, through my bad writing of course!

Example: the bricks and clay were written after research on the bricks production, and the way to creates them.
