Translated by me, edited by drpetro.

Metal Specialist: Possesses a very keen sense for all metals and has an incomparable gift in metal smelting. With them, you now possess a living metal encyclopedia.

Properties:

+15% increase in manufacturing efficiency

+15% increase in metal performance

“Metal smelting?” Ye Qing beganto to talk with himself as he looked at this introduction. Metal smelting was very broad and general subject. Picking, purifying, refining, and quenching were all major subtopics within this broad topic.

At the same time, all iron and steel industries put metal smelting techniques as priority number one on their investment and research list.

Here’s a simple example. When the same iron ore was brought to different smelteries, the resulting steel would have a giant gap in performance.

Some smelteries’ outputs possessed lots of impurities, are brittle, cracked easily and rusted easily. On the other hand, other smelteries’ results had high hardness, were anti corrosive, and were very strong.

There had always been a difference in techniques, even chefs could be sorted by ranks 1, 2, and 3.

And just from the introduction alone, this new Metal Specialist was clearly one of the best chefs, belonging to the very top of the pyramid.

Ye Qing, who now possess the Metal Smelting Center, the very best of smelting equipments, would be able to pump out steel that was incomparable with what was available on market.

However, it also had a major flaw: it could only facilitate the use of arc smelting techniques.

Powder metallurgy was impossible, and so was electroslag remelting.

Powder metallurgy techniques were currently very popular. Take oil bearings for example. When graphite was added during its creation, this non metal element would be able to absorb lubricating oil such that when it’s in use, it would be able to non-stoppingly release lube to minimize its wear and tear.

This kind of technique was straight up impossible for smelting furnaces. But in the field of metallurgy, this was just the basics.

Ye Qing, in one go, hired four of these Metal Specialists. When the summoning mist dissipated, these iron colored, horned monsters opened their fiery colored eyes.

“Hello boss.” The four Metal Specialists even had a hint of metal in their voices.

Ye Qing first nodded, then walked up and began to examine the pitch black armor they were wearing.

“What’s the purpose of this armor?”

“This is the isolation armor. Its able to protect us from harm in high temperature situations.”

“……”

The most common thing at in a smeltery was high temperature. It was just that Ye Qing still hadn’t gotten around the basic theory of this armor.

However, this armor was specifically made for the Metal Specialists, so no one else was able to use them, not even Ye Qing.

After studying it a bit more, Ye Qing once again turned his attention back to the blueprints.

A spinner appeared on the screen, which Ye Qing pressed after rubbing his hands together for luck.

When the spinner began to slow down and the pointer stopped moving, a blueprint with the name [High Power Forging Machine] appeared in front of Ye Qing’s eyes.

Having completely read its brief blurb, Ye Qing was seriously thinking of how lucky he was to pull such a powerful, heavy machinery.

Finishing with his single spin chance, the screen changed to the Shopping Center, where the four black tech blueprints up for sale were [Ultra carbide alloy technique], [Lifelike Flight System], [Fully Automated Assembly Platform System], and [Industrial Waste Purifying System].

The blueprints each cost 5000 gold pieces, but Ye Qing simply gave the price no hoot, as he bought them all in an instant.

These blueprints were all simply great. For example, the Fully Automated Assembly Platform. Ye Qing believed that this was completely and utterly a first rate assembly hen. It was literally a weapon of mass destruction in the field of mass production.
