Chapter 119: Doing Things

was beaten and staggered away crying, and all the villagers and neighbors watched with relief. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

They gathered excitedly and whispered, and watched Yang He get off the horse with awe.

The blacksmith came up to thank him, and he said hesitantly, "Who is your guest?" ”

Yang He waved his hand, he walked into the iron shop, Liu Kedi hurriedly followed up, Hu Employment, Zeng Youyu, Chen Qiuao, Zhang Songtao and others also got off their horses to follow up, and the rest of Han Daxia looked at the war horses outside.

In addition to the iron furnace, iron piers, iron hammers and other large and small tools, there are also many kitchen knives, hoes, sickles, spatulas, scissors and other utensils that have been made on the cabinet.

Then there is a portrait of Li Laojun in the hall, this is the ancestor of the blacksmith, February 15 every year is its birthday, on the 14th, the blacksmith family will eat longevity noodles for Laojun, and then on the 15th, the blacksmith takes the man in the family to Laojun Hall to celebrate his birthday, the ceremony is grand.

Yang He picked up a kitchen knife and looked at it, sure enough, the craftsmanship was good, very fine, and he couldn't help but nodded.

He said: "What is the master's specialty, I'll take a look at it." ”

Blacksmith Yu didn't understand what Yang He meant, but he hurriedly responded, and he said: "There is iron, open the yarn hat, and the wooden fish is ready." ”

The middle-aged man behind him hurriedly answered, but it was Yu Youtie, the son of Yu Blacksmith, and the two young men were apprentices, but what Yu Blacksmith said was jargon, in this area of Huaibei, the blacksmith called the stove "yarn hat", and the anvil "wooden fish".

Soon, the furnace fire was burning, and Yang He saw that they were using charcoal, and using coal to make iron would cause too much sulfur, and the iron would be brittle, and the most old blacksmiths would not use coal.

Of course, if you change to coke, it will be fine, and the firepower will be more fierce.

When the furnace was hot, he saw the blacksmith Yu clamp a piece of iron with pliers, stuffed it into the hearth, and when the iron was burned red, he took the iron from the stove, put it on the iron felt and struck it, sparks flew everywhere, and the sound of Ding Ding dang.

Seeing that their work is quite regular, if they want to call someone to pick up the hammer, the blacksmith only uses a small hammer to knock twice on the tail of the anvil.

They were busy, seeing that the blacksmith was almost seventy years old, and when he struck the iron, he was also sonorous and powerful, and he was sharp and focused.

Yang He nodded, such an expert was what he needed.

Liu Kedi, Zeng Youyu and others were watching, and they were also sighing, and at the same time, Hu Employment also probed his brain, not knowing what he was looking at.

Soon after the "one fire", Yang He carefully looked at the rough embryo of the kitchen knife, and as soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was one.

According to Yang He's estimate, the skills are similar to those of the Zhang Zhugong brothers, but with a little more sophistication, after all, decades of experience in ironmaking are here.

Looking at the noble son in front of him with a look of appreciation, several people behind the blacksmith Yu showed pride, and his son Yu Youtiedao: "I have been striking iron for more than 40 years, and the ironware is strong and durable, and the surrounding villagers are buying from us, and when the harvest is made, there are dozens of people waiting to use dull hoes every day." ”

Yang He put down the kitchen knife, and he said, "What are Master Yu's plans in the future?" ”

Speaking of this, the blacksmith Yu's straight waist went down again, and the hair in the lazy towel became even grayer, but the old blacksmith said stubbornly: "No matter what, I won't let them harm the scissors." ”

The son behind him and the two apprentices nodded equally heavily, with the same stubborn expressions on their faces.

And the scissors that Yu blacksmith said are his granddaughter Yu scissors, their names in this line are mostly related to iron, such as Yu blacksmith's son is named Yu Youtie, married a Hun family is also the daughter of a blacksmith, named Li Kitchen Knife, two apprentices, one is called Tiedun, the other is called Iron Hammer.

Yang He groaned: "That's it, I am also involved in this matter, if you settle down in my village, I will not treat you badly." ”

Blacksmith Yu hesitated: "Xianggong is?" ”

Yang He smiled and said: "In Xiaxin'an Zhuang Master Yang He, Zhuangzi is in the west of this Pizhou forty miles. ”

Blacksmith Yu pondered: "Xin'anzhuang ......"

He felt that this name was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, and Yu Tiedun, an apprentice behind him, was already surprised and shouted: "Is it the Xin'anzhuang that defeated the Jiaoshan bandits a few days ago?" This matter has spread all over Pizhou City. ”

Yu Youtie, the son of Yu Blacksmith, was surprised: "It turns out that you are Yang Xianggong." ”

Blacksmith Yu also remembered it, and he was also shocked, no wonder they all had war horses, and any retinue could also beat the white servants all over the ground to find teeth, it turned out to be them.

Fat soap Li Liu Kedi spoke at this time: "No, I was also present in the battle to exterminate the Jiaoshan bandits, it was really devastating, we had 800 people in several villages, and those bandits were 2,000 people, and the defense was still strong, and the result was a drum." Master Yu, now that Xin'anzhuang is in ruins, you have passed, it is the time to be valued, don't miss the opportunity. ”

Seeing that a few people were quite moved, he said again: "Today's matter, you have greatly offended Niu Bantou and Commander Han, Yang Xianggong can't stay in Pizhou City for a long time, if he leaves, you ...... I'm afraid that the silver of the classman will be increased to a hundred times, especially if they rob ......."

Blacksmith Yu and the others looked at this shop, and the person who was talking in front of them was also an official errand, but they listened to Yang Xianggong's dispatch, which showed that his identity was not wrong.

They can't even say that Yang Xianggong is wrong to fight for them.

It's just that I've lived in Pizhou for decades, and I'm suddenly leaving, and I'm quite reluctant.

Especially this shop, every bit of it is hard work.

Fat soap Liu Kedi said again: "Reluctant to this shop? ”

He shook his head and said, "What is a shop?" There is a shop in Xin'anzhuang, and the shop is even bigger, so let's change places and continue to strike iron. I can't bear the child can't trap the wolf, and I can't bear the daughter-in-law can't trap the wolf, Master Yu, it's time for you to run, you have to seize the opportunity. ”

Yang He shook his head, what did this fat soap say.

Listening to Yu Blacksmith's son Yu Youtie: "I don't know how Yang Xianggong arranged for me to wait when I arrived in Xin'anzhuang?" ”

Yang Hedao: "Fang Cai Liu Ye is right, my Xin'anzhuang is indeed a waste to be lifted, and there is a lot of demand for ironware." When you wait until you get to the village, there will indeed be a big shop, dozens of times larger than this shop. Then I will give you a certain amount of food and silver, and then look at your finished products, if you are qualified and more, the more bonuses you will get. According to my Zhuangzhong measures, I am afraid that after a year, the harvest will exceed the shop in front of you. ”

He said: "If you are willing to take apprentices or teach skills, after they are taught, you will also have a certain amount of commission on their finished products. The more apprentices you bring, the more you get, and the treatment of various technician levels will be improved accordingly. My Xin'anzhuang is developing rapidly, the greater the demand for various iron tools, and the market pie continues to expand, so you don't have to worry about the disciples starving to death of the master. ”

Blacksmith Yu and the others listened, their eyes widened, they seemed to understand, but they didn't seem to understand.

However, Yang Xianggong said this, and it seems to be very good to go to Xin'anzhuang.

He is still a powerful person in exterminating the Jiaoshan bandits, there is no need to deceive such a small craftsman as them.

Blacksmith Yu suddenly made up his mind, although Yang Xianggong said that he couldn't understand a lot, but he would be well placed in Xin'anzhuang, which was for sure.

In the current state of affairs, Pizhou City must not be able to stay, just change places and start from scratch, after all, he is a craftsman, and he has craftsmanship in hand, and he will not worry about having nothing to eat wherever he goes.

And the talent in front of him, not to mention sincerity, people are still very kind, calling him a master, which scholar has spoken to him like this?

Morally speaking, Yang Xianggong solved their problems today, and he had to repay them, otherwise he would be poked in the back by others.

He said, "There is iron, iron piers, iron hammers, and the shop is tidied up." ”

His son and his two apprentices agreed loudly, but the matter took a turn for the worse, and they were a little apprehensive when they were about to leave the familiar environment.

Yu Youtie suddenly remembered something: "After leaving, this class of craftsmen and silver, as well as various taxes and grain taxes......"

After the craftsman pays the silver, in addition to being exempted from some miscellaneous errands, there are actually regular servants and taxes, which cannot be exempted.

Yang He smiled and said, "It's okay, let them go to Xin'anzhuang and ask me." ”

recruited a blacksmith, he was quite comfortable in his heart, and hit the railroad while it was hot: "You have been in Pizhou City for a long time, if you have any acquaintances and are willing to go, you can also persuade one or two." ”

……

After agreeing on relevant matters, Yang He and others left Yujia Lane, and Liu Kedi, the fat soap, found an inn for Yang He on Chengxuan Street.

This side is leaning on the pavilion, the environment is beautiful, and all that can be opened are big inns.

Yang He rewarded the fat soap with ten taels of silver, and asked him to bring the letter from Deng Patrol to find Deng Fa or Deng Cai.

With the silver in his hand, Liu Kedi, the fat soap, smiled and went away, while Yang He had a big meal with Han Daxia and others in the inn.

In the afternoon, Liu Kedi came with Deng Cai, who was on an errand in the soap class, but he found it on Huiyuan Street, but he couldn't find Deng Fa, who was on an errand in the Zhuang class.

asked Deng Cai, and he didn't know where the third brother was.

Deng Cairen is thin and thin, which is quite different from his eldest brother and second brother Deng Sheng, Deng Guan's chubby, and only vaguely similar in appearance.

He came loosely with a waist knife, and when he saw Yang He, his expression was exaggerated, and he even said that he had read the eldest brother's letter, and Yang Xianggong's business was his business.

Regarding what Yang He said about threading the needle, he also patted his chest and assured that he was very familiar with the Nanchennan Ambassador of the Ordnance Bureau, and he would definitely make proper arrangements for Yang Xianggong.

At the end, Deng Cai rubbed his hands and said, "It's just that I'm going out to do something, hehe......hee"

Yang He thought to himself, whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, it is difficult to move an inch without money.

He asked Han Daxia to take out fifty taels of silver, and said, "You look at the gift box, Yang believes that you can handle this matter well." ”

Hu Cheng said on the side: "Boy, take the silver, but remember, our father-in-law's silver is not so easy to take." ”

Deng Cai smiled and said: "A few masters, just rest assured, we Deng Shilang still have a bit of face in Pizhou City." ”
