Chapter 235: Show Your Hands
"Father-in-law Liu, Xiao Fu has no way to discipline his inferior brother, this misunderstanding happened today, and I hope that my father-in-law has a lot of them, don't worry about a yellow-haired son." Xiao Fu sincerely apologized to Liu's father-in-law, who was still lying on the bed, his face still swollen like a pig's head.
"Huh, don't care? The Xiao family is really the emperor's family, and even a concubine with yellow hair is so vicious, it seems that the Liang Kingdom is not taking our Da Zhou seriously at all now, and I will definitely tell the emperor when I go back! "Father-in-law Liu is resentful.
"Father-in-law, please dissipate your anger, in order to show the sincerity of our Xiao family, this is a glass treasure carefully made by our Xiao family's iron workshop, called Cai Shengcai! Originally, it was put up for auction next month, but now I give it to my father-in-law, hoping that my father-in-law can raise his noble hand and not worry about my inferior brother. Wan Xiao Fu took out a glass treasure from the brocade box.
When Gonggong Liu saw this glass treasure, he immediately struggled to get up from the bed, his eyes were immediately attracted, even if his eyes were still swollen into a line, but he was still desperately trying to open them, in order to carefully appreciate this glass treasure!
It was a glass object made of nine ingots stacked on top of each other, the one at the bottom was the largest, the size of a fist; And the top one is the most, which is as big as the thumb; The overall color is golden, the color is bright, and the sandalwood is made of the base, which is engraved with three gold lacquer characters!
Seeing that the pig-like father-in-law Liu showed a greedy and obscene smile, Xiao Fu's heart was completely put down! After listening to Xiao Yao's analysis that day, Xiao Fu went back and thought about it carefully, and found that he really didn't need to be afraid of this Liu Gonggong! What is his identity, and what is his identity, but he still has to do enough, after all, the current Liang State still has to constantly curry favor with Zhou Guo, and it is not cost-effective to offend a person for a glass treasure! So he took out this exquisite glass treasure as a gift to Gonggong Liu!
Xiao Fu also knows the true value of glass treasures, Xiao Family Iron Workshop can be produced casually, but now it is produced in limited quantities in order to increase the price at auction, so Xiao Fu is not distressed at all when he gives this glass treasure to Gonggong Liu.
"The inferior brother has caused such a big disaster, this glass treasure is, of course, an apology from our Xiao family to my father-in-law, and I hope that my father-in-law will not pursue this matter again, and after I go back, I will severely punish the inferior brother." Xiao Fu deliberately kept a straight face and said fiercely.
"This, is this really going to be given to me as an apology?" Gonggong Liu suddenly forgot that his face was still swollen and painful, and his hands trembled and took the glass treasure.
Although this wealth is not as good as the implication of being a marquis immediately, if it is auctioned, I am afraid it is worth at least two thousand taels of silver! And he is only threatening Xiao Fu with his mouth, after all, it is impossible for a character like him to meet Emperor Zhou in normal times, let alone sue Emperor Zhou! Now that he can receive such a valuable apology, Liu Gonggong suddenly became excited, picked up the glass treasures and stroked them constantly, and even felt that he had made a lot of money by being beaten!
。。。。。。
"Childe, come out quickly, there is a very strange young man outside the door, and he wants to see you by name!" Master Li tapped on the door of the laboratory room and shouted hurriedly.
"What strange people? Look how strange is he that scares you? Xiao Yao walked out of the experimental room and followed Master Li out in a daze, now Master Li is also the second-in-command of the iron workshop, even he is nervous, then this person must be very strange.
"He has a knife in his hand, and he is dressed in tatters, and his face is covered with dirt, and his fierce eyes are very scary!" Master Li is just a blacksmith, so he is not very bold, and he belongs to the authentic good people!
The two came to the door of the iron workshop, and Master Li pointed to the person who was surrounded by the guards, and reminded: "It's this weirdo, the appearance is really scary, Gongzi's heart!" ”
"Are you going to see me? Who are you? Xiao Yao looked at this young man who was still extremely calm surrounded by guards, and couldn't help but be a little curious.
"My name is Gao Yuan, eighteen years old this year, and he is also a blacksmith, and I have heard for a long time that the Xiao family iron workshop can not only make amazing glazed weapons, but also create weapons that are also famous, so I came to offer knives and take refuge!" The young man held a knife in both hands and knelt down to Xiao Yao on one knee.
"What? Take refuge? Everyone was confused by this young man, just now I saw him holding a steel knife in his hand, his expression was arrogant, even Xiao Yao thought that this person was going to the door to smash the field.
"Gao is a native of Qi State, and he learned a cast iron craft in Qi State, but now he has frequent wars, and now he is in exile in Liang State, and he specially presents a stainless steel sword, hoping to work for the Xiao family's blacksmith workshop in the future!" Gao Yuan held the knife in both hands.
"Treasure Knife? Haha, interesting! Spread out, and bring me the knife. Xiao Yao said curiously.
"Childe, this is really a good knife!" Master Li took a closer look at this knife and couldn't help but admire, only to see that the back of this knife bent with the blade, and the two wavy nails on both sides were printed, and the blade was extremely sharp and flashing with cold light.
"Good knives? How good is it and how much can it be sold for? "Xiao Yao doesn't know much about knives, so it's most intuitive to measure with money!
"In my opinion, it will be worth at least a hundred taels of silver!" Master Li ruthlessly.
"A hundred taels? It looks like it's a good knife! But I'm curious, a treasure knife that can be sold for a good price, if it is dedicated to those dignitaries and court generals, it should be able to exchange for a better future, why do you want to come here to be a humble blacksmith? Xiao Yao just glanced at the knife out of the corner of his eye, and then returned his attention to Gao Yuan's body.
Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's really different, I wasn't attracted by this treasure knife! However, he was already ready to answer Xiao Yao's question: "I am just a blacksmith, I left my hometown for some reason, and I am in a cluster, and the craftsmanship of the Xiao family's blacksmith workshop is famous, Xiao Gongzi is also a corporal of Lixian, and he is intelligent, and no one in the city does not raise his hand to praise Gongzi!" Good birds choose trees to perch, Gao doesn't care about glory and wealth, just wants to find the master and give full play to his strengths, so he came to join the son. ”
"Cut, why does this sound so fake, but you have to be quite sincere, so show your hands." As a modern person, Xiao Yao certainly doesn't believe in such polite methods, but seeing that he is so slippery, he thinks that it would be good to recruit another capable blacksmith.
"Huh? Yes, it's a bit fake! And show your hands? Hands exposed? Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment, spread out his palms, and looked at Xiao Yao anxiously, his eyes showing a trace of panic.
"Well, this, that's not what it means to show your hands! Hey? Why are you so nervous? Xiao Yao then remembered that Gao Yuan hadn't heard of these modern words he commonly used, but he found that Gao Yuan's expression was a little abnormal, completely lacking the composure just now, and a trace of panic.
"In the next, I listened to Xiao Gongzi just now, I was a little fake, but in the next sentence, it is true, there is no lie." Gao Yuan looked even more nervous, and unconsciously lowered his head, not daring to look at Xiao Yao.
"Well, my good fake just now is actually hypocrisy, exaggeration, you think I'm suspecting yours is a lie? You're so flustered now, you can't really hide something, do you? Raise your head and talk! Xiao Yao found that Gao Yuan didn't dare to look at his words, which was obviously a sign of weakness.
It turned out that Xiao Yao was too fake, because he felt that Gao Yuan's sycophant was too hypocritical and too fake, but now Gao Yuan's expression revealed that he was really hiding something, there must be something wrong with this!
"In the next, please forgive the son, there is indeed an unspeakable hidden in the next, but Gao Yuan is indeed sincerely surrendered, and he will be loyal to the son in the future, and there will be no two hearts!" Gao Yuan's forehead was sweating, and he was surprised in his heart: This Xiao Gongzi is really smart, I only had one sentence, and I actually heard my flaws and saw that I really had something to hide!
"What's so hard to say? They have all come to me, and they are still hiding! Is the door of my ironworks so easy to get into? It's not half or half, playing a big name? Come on, hit out! "Xiao Yao is angry, this guy is too lame!
"Xiao Gongzi, I really came to take refuge in you, and I have no evil thoughts, but there are some things that you still don't know!" Gao Yuan, who was held down by the guards, kept struggling and shouted loudly.
"Yo, it's still such a big hand, brothers, come on!" A guard couldn't hold back and immediately called for help.
The guards around rushed up, but they still couldn't control Gao Yuan! I saw Gao Yuan grab a guard with one hand, then fall over the shoulder, smash into another guard, and then kick the two guards who rushed over three meters away!
The two guards behind Gao Yuan picked up two long sticks and took advantage of this gap to hit him vigorously! It was too late, and it was fast, Gao Yuan's body bent forward, and two sticks brushed his waist and back! Then Gao Yuan raised his waist violently, turned around and kicked twice, snapped, and the two guards also flew out.
After only a few efforts, the six guards were actually beaten down by Gao Yuan, lying on the ground and shouting oops, which frightened Master Li, holding a treasure knife in his hand, standing in front of Xiao Yao, making a gesture to protect Xiao Yao, and shouted loudly: "Bold fanatics, under the sun, dare to make trouble in the Xiao family's blacksmith workshop, come on!" Come and protect Childe! ”
