"Old Ge, do we have any butchers who sell meat in Yi County?" Zhao Qian asked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ge Laohan frowned and thought about it, shook his head and said: "Originally, there was a butcher in our Yi County, but a month ago, the family had moved away, and now if you want to buy meat, you have to go to Zhuo County in Youzhou." ”
"Youzhou?" Zhao Qian frowned.
Ge Laohan looked at it and hurriedly said: "Although it is in Youzhou, it is not far from our Yi County, and it will take less than half a day to arrive." ”
Zhao Qian nodded and said, "That's very good, let's have a good rest today, and early tomorrow morning, let's go to Zhuo County to buy pork!" ”
Listening to Zhao Qian's words, the tenant farmers were very excited, they had lived for so many years, most of them had only seen pigs running, and had never tasted pork, even the elderly Ge Laohan was there to smash his lips.
After appeasing the tenant farmer who had been injured in the fight just now, Zhao Qian gave Ge Laohan some money and goods, and asked him to go to the county to find Lang Zhong and treat the injured tenant farmer.
With nothing to do, Zhao Qian instructed the tenant farmers not to relax their training at night, and found a person with excellent performance to be their captain, after which Zhao Qian left the tenant village.
After a night without words, he came to the tenant village early the next morning, found two tenant farmers as his entourage, pulled a small car, and rushed to Zhuoxian to buy meat.
The two tenant farmers, one named Wang Shan and the other named Zhang Li, were very excited after being selected by Zhao Qian.
The reason why Zhao Qian went there in person was not because he couldn't believe them, he was afraid that they would lose their money, but he felt that when he came to this world, he should move around more if he had the opportunity, and besides, Zhao Qian always felt that this place in Zhuoxian County seemed to have heard of it somewhere.
Along the way, Zhao Qian was thinking about his own affairs, and Wang Shan and Zhang Zhang saw that Zhao Qian didn't speak, and they didn't dare to disturb loudly, but just silently pushed the car and hurried.
Finally, the three of them arrived in Zhuo County before noon.
As soon as he entered the gate of the county seat, Zhao Qian clearly felt that Zhuo County was obviously better than Yi County, which could be easily seen from the clothes and mental outlook of the people on the street.
The reputation of Zhuoxian Zhang Butcher is too loud, and after a little inquiry, you will know where the place is.
It's just that when he heard the three words of Zhang Butcher, Zhao Qian's heart was unconsciously shocked. Zhuo County? Zhang butcher? It can't be that coincidental, right?
With doubts, Zhao Qian hurried to Zhang Butcher.
When he came to the meat pole of the Zhang butcher, a servant told Zhao Qian that his master happened to go to the village to transport wine, and it turned out that this Zhang butcher not only killed pigs and sold meat, but also made good wine.
Zhao Qian urgently needed to know the name of the butcher now, but he also knew that the servant could not mention the name of the master casually, so he had to wait patiently for the butcher to come back.
However, Wang Shan and Zhang Zhang couldn't wait any longer, and Wang Shan shouted to the servant, "Your master is not here, won't you sell us meat?" ”
The servant owed, and hurriedly laughed: "I want to buy it, but the master is not here, so I can't sell it to you." ”
"Oh, so you can't be the master of this trade." Zhang Zhang said suddenly.
The servant hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Although this meat stall belongs to the master's family, the master has always been very good at taking me and waiting, and he has always entrusted us with this business." ”
"Then why can't you sell it to us?" Wang Shan asked.
"Come with me, and you will see it at a glance." The servant shrugged his shoulders and led Zhao Qian and a few people to the back of the meat stall.
It turned out that there was a well above this meat stall, and a round boulder was placed on it, Zhao Qian looked at it, the diameter of the boulder was one and a half meters, and the thickness was half a meter, and I am afraid that it would weigh hundreds of catties.
"You see, this pork is in this well, only the owner can move the boulder, I really can't help it." The servant said helplessly.
Wang Shan glanced at Zhang Zhang and said to him, "Let's try it?" ”
Zhang Zhang nodded, and the two walked to the sides of the boulder, spat on their hands, and then worked together to move the boulder away.
However, after a long time, both of their faces turned red, and the boulder remained unmoved until they were so tired that they sat down on the ground panting.
"Haha, don't bother, only my master can move this stone." The servant said proudly, "Otherwise, my master would not have let go, as long as he can move the boulder, the meat in this well will be taken." ”
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows, and after listening to the words of the servant, he had now basically determined the identity of Zhang Butcher, and this scene was so familiar.
"I'll try." Zhao Qian suddenly spoke.
The servant knew that Zhao Qian's identity must be more noble than the two before, so he glanced up and down, and said, "This son, these two eldest brothers can't move a bit, I think you don't have to bother, right?" ”
Zhao Qian smiled slightly, ignoring the servants, his own force value was greater than Wang Shan and Zhang Li combined, and he might not be unable to succeed.
Zhao Qian walked to the edge of the boulder, and after going around in a circle, he found a better point to borrow, took a deep breath, crossed the boulder with both hands, and moved vigorously.
The servant shook his head vigorously beside him, as if he didn't believe that Zhao Qian, a white-looking son, could move the boulder.
"It's moving, it's moving!" Wang Shan suddenly pointed at the boulder and shouted.
Zhang Zhang also looked fixedly, only to see that there was a gap between the boulder and the wellhead, and Zhao Qian turned out to be a boulder moving!
The servants on the side naturally saw it, and couldn't help but open their mouths in surprise.
However, only Zhao Qian knew about this, and he could do this at most, and finally, his strength could not be maintained, and the boulder fell at the mouth of the well again.
Zhao Qian shook his head, he really couldn't imagine how much strength the person who could move this boulder would have!
"How? No way, right? The servant said.
Zhao Qian looked at the servant and said with a smile: "I have a way to remove this boulder, does your master mean what he says?" ”
The servant was stunned for a moment and said: "This is natural, my master has always said the same, but you can only do it." ”
"Don't worry, my strength alone is enough." Zhao Qian smiled, turned his head to Wang Shan and Zhang Li, and said, "Go and find me a few wooden sticks with thick arms and some ropes." ”
"I've got this here." The servant hurriedly said that he wanted to see what tricks this boy could play.
Taking the rope, Zhao Qian first made a bracket and placed a wooden stick on top of the bracket.
Then, Zhao Qian tied a knot on the wooden stick with a rope, bypassed the other stick, and then wound it back from the stick on the stand.
In this way, Zhao Qian tied it twice and hung another wooden stick under the one on the stand.
Then, Zhao Qian used a rope to wrap and tie the boulder tightly, and finally tied it to the hanging stick, and after doing all this, Zhao Qian nodded with satisfaction.
Wang Shan was a little confused, so he stepped forward to look and look, and finally could only ask, "Master, what did you get here?" ”
Zhao Qian paused slightly, and replied: "This thing is called a moving pulley!" ”
