Chapter 158: The Event
Early the next morning.
Old Man Jin prepared everything early, even if he was nervous and excited, he didn't sleep well all night.
But now he was in great spirit, and he stepped forward and patted the scalper, as if he was looking forward to this journey.
"Why is it so sudden, why don't you go again in a few days?" Jin Jiang said uneasily, she was suddenly told last night that the old man was going to the border city, she didn't disagree, but after all, it was far away, and the family couldn't get the money now, so eating and sleeping along the way became a problem.
Old Man Jin didn't know, did he show a smile and said: "Your girl is very ghostly, and she has a lot of private rooms in her hands, we won't stay long if we come back, and we'll be back in a few days." ”
If it was in the past, Jin Jiang's family couldn't wait to immediately empty the silver that his little daughter had saved privately, Jin Yun was so extravagant that she couldn't save it at all, so it was better to hand it over to her, and when she got married in the future, it might be a huge amount of money. But now, she wished that her youngest daughter had as much silver as possible.
She said, "You old thing, you don't plan anything, and you suddenly have to run so far." ”
In the border city, even a carriage takes a day's work. Moreover, San Lang went there before, but he was carried back halfway, and Jin Jiang was inexplicably uneasy about going to the border city.
But Old Man Jin's long-awaited expectations for many years are about to come true, so how can he not be in a hurry.
His wrinkled face was crawling, but he smiled very wantonly, he didn't say it, he had actually planned this matter for a long, long time, so long that he almost forgot it.
Set up the ox cart, and the old man Jin Yun, Yongxin and Jin Qiwu got on the car.
When he arrived in the town, Jin Qiwu went to the carriage waiting on the side. The border city is far away from here, and I don't know when I will go to the ox cart, so I naturally have to rent a carriage to go.
Jin Qiwu glanced over, and saw an acquaintance, the family went out, naturally he was relieved by acquaintances, negotiated the price, and beckoned a few people to get into the car, he said again: "Dad, or I'll go with it, I still don't worry about the three of you after all." ”
Old Man Jin's eyes were horizontal, and he said: "You are your father is old and confused, I have been to farther places, let alone border cities." ”
Jin Qiwu still wanted to persuade, but when he saw his father blowing his beard and glaring, he swallowed the words on his lips, so he could only turn his head and tell the familiar coachman again, and secretly promised that when he came back safely, there would be Xie Jin.
The coachman immediately patted his chest and assured that he had been a coachman for at least ten years, and the border city often ran back and forth, and there was no problem once. The coachman assured that Xie Jin, who didn't care about that, just didn't want to smash his own signboard.
If something really happens, they will spread it all over the world, and don't think about attracting a voice in the future.
Looking at the departing carriage, Jin Qiwu stood there for a long time, until he was gone, and then turned around and walked towards the dock.
It's not that he is not curious, but Dad doesn't say it, he just asks, and there will be no reply. Since Dad has definitely gone out this time, he must have made some determination, I'm afraid that he will know if he doesn't want to know in the near future......
The carriage traveled for a whole day, but fortunately the coachman was an experienced man, neither staying overnight nor hungry, and it was well planned where to stop and where to stay, although it was a long time, but he was not very tired.
Yuanli Town is prosperous because there is a wharf, but the border city is a big city, covering an area of the upper three Yuanli Town, and it is a prosperous place to live.
After entering the city, the coachman sent a few people to the inn, which was small but had many people.
Old Man Jin immediately set up two rooms for three days.
While eating at the inn, Jin Yun also knew why Old Man Jin came here.
"It's not going to be easy this year." The man at the next table said, with a lot of fun in his words.
"But no, I didn't expect that there were a lot of capable people in our city."
"Capable people are not fake, they are young, they are all talented, maybe they can really make it to the finals."
"Have you heard, there is a girl in this event, and I heard that she is not very old, I really don't know how she can hold a hammer."
"Hey, maybe she's the next Iron Lady."
Iron Maiden?
Jin Yun stopped the chopsticks in her hand, could it be that this event has something to do with iron?
She couldn't help but look at Old Man Jin, as if waiting for his reply.
"The triennial event, tomorrow is the day of the competition." Old Man Jin said, it is precisely because of this that I can't help but think about it every day these days, and every time I think about it, my heart is tingling.
But now it's different, Old Man Jin didn't expect that he would be able to see each other again in his lifetime.
Jin Yun was puzzled, she put down her chopsticks and asked, "Are you letting me compete?" ”
She wasn't interested in the event, and if she wanted to, she could have won first place, but it wasn't well deserved.
With the power in her body, she didn't believe that there was anyone in this world who was more powerful than her.
Jin Yun thought so in her heart, but she also didn't know that in the near future, this imagination would be completely overturned.
Old Man Jin looked at his daughter and shook his head, even if he thought about it, it was impossible, he said: "Tomorrow is the rematch, even if you want to participate, it's impossible, I just want you to open your eyes." ”
What the youngest daughter lacks is skills, but he has nothing to teach him, Old Man Jin sighed secretly, he was still young when he left, and he didn't have deep contact, and there were many things that even he didn't know.
"What kind of eye-opener is this? Just go straight to the weapon spectrum. Jin Yun said, she didn't want to go to the armory shop in Yuanli Town for a second time, and finally came to the border city, so naturally she wanted to go shopping here, maybe she could really come across something pleasing to the eye.
"Of course there is, you have heard it, most of the people who participated in this event are talented, they are not as good as you, they have no background. Most of these people are children of families, and they have more or less some skills in their hands. Old Man Jin said one by one, and said again: "The semi-final is different from the preliminary round, the preliminary round is to take out a satisfactory weapon, and the referee will choose it." But the rematch is different, the rematch is to bring all the people together and open the furnace to strike iron! ”
Jin Yun sat up straight, if it was to open the furnace and strike iron, he would really be able to observe some reasons, and when he heard this, he was really a little moved.
Old Man Jin touched the beard under his lips and said: "I don't make weapons, I just forge pig iron, and until time stops, I will select the most refined people to enter the semi-finals." ”
After speaking, he asked again: "Jin Yun, tell me, how much time did you spend folding and forging last time." ”
Jin Yun thought about it carefully, it was not easy to calculate, it took at least half a month to fold and forge back and forth eight times, and this also counted the time wasted due to trivial matters, she said: "About half a month." ”
Old Man Jin took a sip, looked at her with shining eyes, and said, "But do you know, these people can hit you in three days for half a month, do you know what it is?" (To be continued.) )
