Father Barry stepped aside to fully reveal Hanjun to the cksmith.


    The yers helped exin, "Yes, that''s right."


    The cksmith looked at Father Barry, then at Hanjun, and suddenly realized, "Oh, so you''re…"


    Father Barry quickly stopped him with a gesture.


    The cksmith realized, "Sorry, I was impulsive."


    Hanjun was pleased with Father Barry''s quick action and said to the cksmith, "After Flower Deer exins how to handle things here, the ironworks will be under your care. But I need to emphasize one point: the ironworks is not your private property; it belong to Ulon Town. Father Barry will inform you of what needs to be done. You will be responsible for all the work inside the ironworks.


    If any issues arise, Father Barry wille to you. Do you understand?"


    The cksmith scratched his head, still a bit confused.


    Could it really be that simple?


    So, he just needs to listen to Father Berry about what weapons to make, and then he''s in full charge of the factory?


    Is it really that good?


    Seeing he still didn''t understand, Hanjun exined further, "In simple terms, you''re now the manager of the Ulon Town Ironworks. You handle all the internal matters of the factory yourself. Outside the factory, Father Barry is your superior. You must follow his instructions."


    The cksmith nodded his head vigorously, "I got it. Father Barry is now the acting mayor of the town. We must listen to him no matter what."


    Hanjun thought about it and agreed that this understanding was not wrong, so he nodded his head and confirmed, "Yes, that''s right."


    The cksmith who is happy with the confirmation, went to touch the still-unused st furnace and said with satisfaction, "With such a big furnace, the iron it produces should have very few impurities."


    Flower Deer stepped forward to exin, "The st furnace does remove a lot of impurities from the ore. However, we haven''t found a cleaner fuel yet, so we have to use coal. Unfortunately, the quarry''s coal production is very low. Still, the iron produced from the st furnace will be more convenient and efficient than other methods and will ensure better quality iron."


    The yers discussed and thought that since light-type magic has a spell for lighting and pure mana stones can store magic, it might be possible to rece burning coal with a powerful fire-type magic that was stored in a mana stone if they could learn fire-type magic.


    Of course, this was just their guess, so they decided not to mention it for now.


    The cksmith didn''t understand why burning coal needed to be clean, but he knew that if Flower Deer was right, he could forge sharper weapons!


    He focused all his attention on the ironworks, and Flower Deer was happy to share all she knew and even showed him how to use the furnace.


    Seeing the finished products, the cksmith was eager to start working immediately.


    Hanjun said, "First, make a batch of weapons. Let the heroes take the weapons and rescue the townspeople in the southern mountain. Then there will be more people to help with the furnace."
