Chapter 301 Prince Wuchang's Mansion

In the courtyard, it was filled with disciples under Master Lu.

They were all robust, only wearing coarse cloth sweatshirts, and despite the chilly evening breeze, sweat still covered their bodies.

Tools were scattered all around the courtyard, in an array of shapes and sizes.

Some were grinding metal near a wheel, sparks flying…

Others were smithing near a furnace, with hammers of all sizes clanging down…

The ground was also scattered with various ceramic pots holding different liquids, some used for quenching, others for soaking.

In addition to this, there were leather workers and carpenters. Despite the bustle, everything was well-organized and orderly.

Li Yan could not help but silently praise what he saw.

He was on good terms with Manager Wan from Wensheng Pavilion, who was an elder of the Chang'an Craftsmen Guild, and through their casual talks, he had come to understand this trade.
