Chapter 159: Borrowing Money to Buy Shoes

Armor: Armor of Heaven?

Xiao Wen was overjoyed, although he didn't know what level of armor this armor belonged to, but the armor of the Heavenly Court, no matter how bad it was, how bad could it be?

Hurriedly said: "Starling, can you contact him now and ask him to send the armor over for me to see?"

"No problem. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info," Hong Hachi laughed, "That's what he meant by asking him to leave his contact information." ”

immediately contacted the original owner of the armor, and not long after, a burly middle-aged man flew over with a pair of armor, landed at the door of the barbecue restaurant, and came in.

"Shopkeeper, can you repair my armor?"

Hong Ba hurriedly defended, "This gentleman, it's not that I can repair your armor, but our tinker is here, let him see if your armor is suitable for repair." ”

"Oh!" the middle-aged man's gaze fell on Xiao Wen, looking him up and down. Apparently he felt that Chauvin was young and unlikely to be a tinkerer, so much so that he looked distrustful.

At the same time, Xiao Wen was naturally looking at the middle-aged man, this man looked like he was in his forties, and his height was not very tall, but his rare body was very strong, and at first glance, he gave people a feeling of strength and strong body combat.

When he came into contact with the other party's distrustful gaze, Xiao Wen smiled, "Your armor, can you let me take a look at it first?"

The middle-aged man stared at him with distrust and asked, "Are you a tinker? Can you repair metal products?" Let me warn you first, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to repair it, don't know how to repair it, and pretend to know how to repair it, if you destroy my ancestral armor, you won't be able to pay for selling it. ”

"Tinkering, of course I know some. But how can I be sure if I can repair your armor without looking at it?" Xiao Wen looked disapproving.

Whether he can repair the opponent's armor, he actually has no bottom in his heart, after all, the repair process has not yet been learned. But you can't tell the other party that you don't know how to repair at all, right?

The middle-aged man looked Xiao Wen up and down a few times, and finally seemed to feel that what Xiao Wen said was reasonable, and nodded immediately, "Okay, but be careful when you look at it, don't move casually and damage my armor." ”

As he spoke, he lowered the armor from his shoulders.

The armor made of metal is simple, it can protect the chest, abdomen and half of the limbs, and the helmet is good, and after wearing it on the head, there is an iron mask that hangs down to cover the face.

As for the metal, I can't see what kind of metal it is for the time being, there is no luster on the surface, Xiao Wen reached out and touched it, this metal gives people a cool feeling, in short, it doesn't look like an ordinary common metal.

Seeing Xiao Wen stroking the armor, the middle-aged man narrated: "This armor is used by a heavenly general of my ancestor, and it is made of Qingying iron, and after wearing it, it naturally forms a protective shield outside the user's body, which can protect the people inside from the outside world." ”

"It's just that later in the battle of Huaguo Mountain, he was attacked by a demon monkey in the back and broke the armor rented first, and the ancestor also died because of it. ”

"This armor has survived to this day. ”

As he spoke, he flipped over the armor, and there was indeed a hole in his back, which looked like it had been pierced by a gun-like weapon.

Xiao Wen's expression moved, and he was about to ask why the armor that was broken at that time had not been repaired until today. In the past, repair, since all kinds of craftsmen were complete, all kinds of blacksmith tinkerers were easy to find, and it was definitely easier to repair.

Dragged to this day, the blacksmith is almost gone, the tinkerer is almost nowhere to be found, the repair has become difficult, but on the contrary, it is known that the repair?

The middle-aged man seemed to know what Xiao Wen meant, and without waiting for him to ask, he explained: "After the armor breaks a hole, the function disappears, and even if you wear it, it can't form a protective shield." In addition, since the death of the ancestor Tianjiang, my family has never produced a heavenly soldier or heavenly general for dozens of generations. Therefore, this damaged armor has been left unrepaired. ”

When Xiao Wen heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, since there was no one who was a soldier in the family, then it was common sense that this armor would not be repaired.

When the middle-aged man said this, he suddenly became a little embarrassed, "In my generation, I don't have any other skills, but my fist and foot skills are good." Doing other work, I felt that I was condescending, so I went to the city lord's mansion to apply for a job, starting from the heavenly soldiers. ”

"Ordinary Heavenly Soldiers, it's not my goal. I also want to be like my ancestors, at least to become a heavenly general. However, the competition for the Heavenly General is too fierce, and for me, if I want to become a Heavenly General, I first need a good pair of armor. ”

"Good armor, there are some in the supermarket, but the price is too expensive, and secondly, those technological armor, ordinary technological armor, when it comes to practicality, are not even as good as this green armor left by the ancestors, so, I mean to try to find a tinker to repair this armor. ”

"Oh!" When Xiao Wen heard this, he completely understood what the middle-aged man was repairing the green armor for.

"Can I take a look at this armor?" asked Chauvin.

"Yes, but don't move. The middle-aged man said cautiously.

Chauvin nodded, "I'm just looking at this muzzle." ”

The middle-aged man put the armor on the table and motioned for Xiao Wen to come and see.

Xiao Wen leaned over to take a closer look at the muzzle on the armor, and it could be seen from the wound that this armor was still very exquisite, and the material of Qingying iron, through a special casting process, formed one fine texture after another on the surface, and this texture, because of the extremely large number of casting, has even extended to the inside of the armor metal material.

In addition, the entire armor is covered with a special pattern, and the pattern forms a pattern, which is extremely complex. However, these patterns, one by one, are exactly the same, as if they are repeated, but they are very similar to the patterns on the fabric.

Xiao Wen estimated that the reason why this Qingmingkai was able to produce a protective shield is probably related to these repeated patterns.

It is a trivial matter to repair the hole, the important thing is to complete the pattern, otherwise even if the muzzle of the gun is repaired, the Qing Mingkai will not be able to form a protective cover, and there is no difference between repairing and not repairing.

But how to repair the hole, the key is to figure out what these patterns are going on, and when building, create the patterns little by little.

For Xiao Wen, this is not too difficult, but the difficult thing is the water grinding kung fu, without understanding the basic principles of these patterns, the only way to take a similar way to trace the pattern is completely copied little by little.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wen suddenly had a bottom in his heart, and immediately said: "This Qingying Kai of yours, I can try to help you repair it, but do you have the Qingying Iron, the material used to make the Qingying Kai?"

The middle-aged man was surprised, "Can you really fix it?"

Xiao Wen said: "I just said that I can try to help you repair it, whether it can be repaired or not, I don't guarantee it." However, I can guarantee that even if it is not repaired well, it will not damage your ancestral armor further. ”

The middle-aged man was a little unimpressed at first, but when he heard the end, he was immediately moved, even if he didn't repair it well, it wouldn't damage his ancestral armor, so it was worth a try.

At the moment, he said: "Of course I collected a piece of Qingying Iron, just to repair the armor, do you see if it is enough." ”

As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized piece of green iron from his body and showed it to Xiao Wen.

Xiao Wen took it in his hand and weighed it, the green iron was not heavy, even lighter than ordinary metal, but the hardness was obviously not comparable to ordinary metal.

The palm is a big piece, and it must be enough to repair the gun hole in the back of the green armor, and there is even a leftover.

"Enough. Xiao Wen said: "Now let's talk about the repair price, this Qingmingkai, if the repair is not good, then needless to say, if the repair is broken, I will compensate you." If the repair is successful, I will charge you 10,000 yuan, if you agree, I will help you repair it, if you don't agree, please be smart. ”

At a high price of 10,000 yuan, Xiao Wen is also a temptation, Qing Ming Kai is a good thing, to create a pair of Qing Ming Kai that will be used by the sky, it must be more than this price. But the problem is that you don't build yourself, you tinker.

If you repair it, the price is much lower.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he was obviously a little hesitant, and the repair price of 10,000 yuan felt a little too high in his opinion. What's more, so far, Xiao Wen himself is not sure that he will be able to repair the armor.

At the moment, he said: "The price of 10,000 yuan is too high, how about 5,000 yuan?" You yourself said that you are not sure to repair it, and I will also take a lot of risk if I hand over Qing Mingkai to you. ”

"Hehe!" Xiao Wen smiled, "I said that the damage to the Qing Ying Armor will be compensated for the original price, so you didn't take any risks." 10,000 yuan may be a little higher, but 5,000 yuan is definitely not good, so let's do it, a fixed price, 8,000 yuan. If you accept it, you will keep the armor, and if you don't accept it, you will take it. ”

The middle-aged man was silent again, thought for a while, and suddenly gritted his teeth, "Okay, eight thousand is eight thousand, but you will pay the bill after you have repaired it." ”

"Yes. Xiao Wen pretended to be very reluctant and agreed.

In fact, even if the middle-aged man continues to lower the price, he will agree in the end. If nothing else, even if it's just to learn the craft of repairing and then practice, he will take over the business.

More money and less money is not the most important thing for him, the most important thing is to accumulate repair experience through this business.

Of course, the first time is the most important, and after more repairs are made and become proficient, the pricing will definitely not be the same as it is now.

After signing the contract, the middle-aged man left the Qingying Armor and the Qingying Iron and left with the contract.

Hong Ba smiled and said, "Congratulations brother, as soon as you got the repair process, you took over a business." This pair of Qing Ying Kai, with his brother's talent, it is estimated that it will not take long to go back and be able to repair it successfully. ”

"Hehe! Whether it can be repaired successfully is still unknown for the time being, and the starling thinks too highly of me. Xiao Wen was rarely humble.

Hong Ba smiled and said: "Anyway, if you repair it once, you will earn 8,000 yuan, and my brother will have a lot of money, and I can't help but envy this craftsmanship, I am red when I see it." ”

"Haha!" Xiao Wen laughed, "Starling, you are too polite, your own brother, and you still say so many kind words? Without your help, don't talk about business, can this repair process be in my hands?" ”

"Haha!" Hong Ba also smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed to an empty table, and greeted Xiao Wen, "Brother, it's rare to see each other, sit down, let's have a drink today." ”

"It's fine. Xiao Wen thought about it for a while, and then agreed, and it just so happened that he also needed Hong Ba's help.

Sitting down at the empty table, Hong Ba took a bottle of good wine from the cabinet by the way, and beckoned the waiter to bring chicken wings, duck necks, chicken feet and other barbecues, and the two of them drank.

After drinking for a while, Xiao Wen talked about business, "Starling, there is one thing, and I have to trouble Starling." ”

"What's the matter? Brother said bluntly, his own brother, why bother to spit it out?" Hong Ba pretended to be very unhappy.

Xiao Wen was really embarrassed to mention this matter, but when he heard Hong Ba say this, he immediately became a lot more generous, and said immediately: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that I want to buy a pair of flying shoes in advance, but the money is not enough, and I want to borrow some from the starling brother first." ”

"What kind of big deal should I be, it's just borrowing money, what's so embarrassing?" Hong Ba's face was full of disapproval, and then he urged Xiao Wen, "Drink, and punish yourself with a glass of starling." ”

"Haha!" Xiao Wen successfully borrowed the money, not to mention the joy in his heart, haha smiled, "It's me who is wrong, I will punish myself for three cups." ”

Whether the money is good or not, Xiao Wen, who is used to being poor, naturally knows very well, not to mention that he still borrows 10,000 yuan at a time in Heavenly Court.

Hong Ba can lend it to himself so happily, he can't help but feel ungrateful in his heart.

If you want to buy flying shoes, this idea, Xiao Wen has not been born for a day or two, not for anything else, in the mortal world, if you don't have a pair of flying shoes, it doesn't matter in normal times, but once you fight with the little stick, it will be too much of a loss.

Take the last incident of the small stick fighter as an example, because there were no flying shoes, and the bird did not fly as high as the fighter, so that from beginning to end, Xiao Wen could only hide under the ocean and chose to avoid the little stick fighter.

If he had flying shoes, he would obviously have more options, at least he could try to fight the Little Stick Fighter. It's not exactly like before, and you have to dodge when you encounter a small stick fighter.

At present, the island has begun to be built, and it is about to have its own base, and the sense of oppression and crisis in Xiao Wen's heart is of course increasing day by day.

In this situation, if there is still no pair of flying shoes, once the island is discovered by the little stick and the fighter jet drives over, Xiao Wen is afraid that he will not have any power to fight back at all, so he can only watch the little stick destroy his own island.

With flying shoes, although it may not be possible to improve combat effectiveness much, at least, Xiao Wen feels that if he can fly into the air, he will not be completely powerless to fight back. (To be continued.) )
