Chapter 253
But the man seemed to be completely uneasy, even though the knife had been handed over to the master, he was still beside him, constantly nagging his request, "You must do it yourself, add weight to this knife yourself, and don't let any other apprentice do it for me." This knife is equivalent to my life, and if you don't do it well, you won't open this shop in the future. ”
Of course, the master was full of promises, and at the same time repeatedly promised that he would definitely complete the transformation of the knife according to the requirements of the guests.
And finally the man made another request, that is, to ask the master to start reforming his sword at once, and at the same time set a time, and in about an hour, he would come back to get his sword.
An hour is more than enough to transform a knife, but within this hour, the master is not allowed to transform a knife, but also to create the scissors that have been set before.
Hearing this time limit, the old master held it, and looked cautious about the knife, as if this knife was really a peerless product, his face did not change at all, and his expression did not have any other reaction, but he still smiled and kept nodding in agreement as he did just now.
It was the two young men waiting next to him, one of whom was a little anxious to speak and remind the master. After all, the first order of business has been taken this morning, and the customer who needs the scissors is also anxious to want this pair of scissors, and will come to pick them up at noon.
And now it is only an hour before noon, if the master sets the time of this knife just right, then that person's scissors will definitely not be able to be completed.
But just as he was about to open his mouth to remind his master, his arm was grabbed by another guy. When the guy turned his head to look over, he found that the guy just shook his head helplessly. Now this guy also knows, probably now is not the time for him to remind him of this matter, after all, that guy has always been more clever than him, and he has won the favor of the old master, so it should be no problem to listen to him.
And the interaction between the two young men, of course, was also seen by the master, in this shop, although she kept smiling at the customer, but in fact, her eyes kept sweeping the eyes of others.
The master has seen many such rich and powerful customers before, but after coming to this small county, there are many fewer opportunities to see such nobles, and he has really forgotten the appearance of such a customer. The one who came today woke up the dusty memory of the old master again.
This master originally opened an iron-striking shop in the capital, and the business was not bad, and gradually became famous, and after some people with status came to their store to order some things. Although it is not necessarily those big people who come to order in person, when ordering these things, the master can still see the attitude of those servants at a glance. From their attitudes, it can be analyzed that the identity of the master behind them is geometric.
It's just that later the old master offended others and had to leave the prosperous place of the capital and come to such a small county town where birds don't. Although gradually the people in the neighborhood also respect the master very much, but such a difference in identity and the change of situation make the master feel a little unwilling depression in his heart.
Who wants to, this is a waste of craft money in this kind of place, there is no need to show how skilled they are, what are the things they build, scissors, kitchen knives, hoes, axes, etc. These things can be completed even by a blacksmith with extremely poor craftsmanship, how can they show their skills? It's just that although he has a special skill, he has to bend down and huddle in such a small place, which really makes the old master feel very uncomfortable and aggrieved.
is also because he has inadvertently offended people, so the master's ability to observe the surrounding environment is indeed much stronger than before. In the past, he just didn't know how to grasp people's hearts, so he didn't pay attention to the few words he said casually, and he just happened to hit the most secret place in other people's hearts, and in the end, he could only flee the capital in embarrassment, and his skills were all wasted in such a small county.
Therefore, after settling down in this small county town, or rather, after he offended that nobleman, this old master has super control over his surroundings, so he has been paying attention to the reactions of everyone around him, and his brain is almost running at high speed. It was because of such meticulous observation and quick response that the master saw the changes in Zhou Sheng's mood for the first time.
If you want to talk about Zhou Sheng's mood change, the most powerful thing is, of course, that the master promised to give the guest officer a personal operation and increase the counterweight. At that moment, the teacher obviously saw Zhou Sheng, the obvious change in his mood, his two pairs of eyes revealed, but the thoughts were full of various contradictory factors, there was confusion, admiration, and contempt.
These complex emotions were transmitted from Zhou Sheng at once. This in itself is unbelievable to say, but it did happen to me. In fact, the main master will pay special attention to Zhou Sheng's reaction, also because he has always had a doubt in his heart.
From the past few days to get along, in fact, the master is still very satisfied with Zhou Sheng, this young man has vision and hard work, but also very patient, perseverance characteristics, these characteristics are very in line with the requirements of the master, for Zhou Sheng he even got up, is it should be his own craft to pass on the idea, but gradually the master found that in addition to these characteristics, there is another very big characteristic, that is, he seems to be able to see through the minds of others.
Often get along with each other, occasionally the master will be dissatisfied with a certain person, and lose his temper and reprimand a few words, but Zhou Sheng often seems to be able to feel the thoughts in his heart at the first time, and cast a sympathetic gaze on that person, and even that kind of gaze, he is still before he gets angry. Of course, the master who has been in the works twice this time has noticed that if Zhou Sheng can really see through the hearts of others, then this person will be too terrible.
The old master doesn't want to keep such a person by his side, so that all the thoughts in his heart are still hidden, it is like throwing all his inner thoughts out, it is simply too uncomfortable.
