The three of them walked out of the Yellow Crane Tower, the spring breeze in the city of Ezhou was mixed with a little drizzle, and occasionally the literati scratched the guest holding an oilcloth printed umbrella in the rain to find "inspiration", these people, a pair of artistic eyes looked around the upstairs on the side of the street, looked at the beautiful widow of the Liu family on the East Street, and laughed at the daughter of the Ma family in the West Lane. Tibetan wealth in the people of the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan, Jiangnan Road is even more wealthy, many rich children have nothing to do since childhood, only learn poetry and songs, but to get a fame is to glorify the ancestors, when it comes to strengthening the body, learning articles is not as good as the ordinary family.

"Liang Hui, where is there a blacksmith shop in this Ezhou city? Take me to find one of the best! Wei Wu got out of the "cage", and swept his thief eyes with great interest to the girls who passed by from time to time, and said to Liang Hui without looking back.

"The best blacksmith shop in Ezhou is Lao Yang's blacksmith shop, I heard that the ironware used at home in the Mansion of Lord Thorn Shi was made by them! However, the price is much higher than that of a regular blacksmith shop! Liang Hui is obviously a Baixiaosheng in Ezhou, and he has been wandering in the front hall for a long time, so he naturally heard a lot of news about the chatter of diners.

Wei Wu grinned: "Haha, no matter how expensive he is!" As long as the technology is good enough! ”

Liang Hui was stunned, opened his mouth and said, "Fifth brother, our monthly money is enough to fight a knife in this old Yang shop!" ”

Who comes out to mix now and relies on those few taels of silver for a month, last night I was thick-skinned and honored the fifth brother a lot! Wei Wu put his arm around Liang Hui's neck and grinned: "It's okay with this, didn't you see our General Sun here?" ”

"Hehe, my grandson is gone, does he dare to ask for silver?" Sun Zhuoyi grinned, straightened his chest, and slapped the steel knife on his waist with his big hand, which was so arrogant that Liang Hui shook his shoulders in fright. Then he asked suspiciously, "Brother Wei, what are you going to do in the blacksmith shop?" Build weapons to defend against that little guy last night? Just tell my grandson, I'll give you a long sword! ”

"Ahem, I'm going to do business, I'm going to do business" Wei Wu looked at Sun Zhuoyi's rogue appearance, and teased in his heart, just this brain, just this bandit can be a general? Fifth brother, if I travel to the Three Kingdoms, won't I become Gongjin and Wolong?

Wei Wu and Sun Zhuoyi followed Liang Hui around the city of Ezhou for a long time before they came to Lao Yang's blacksmith shop, Wei Wu looked up, but this blacksmith shop was very different from what he had seen in the movie in his previous life, it turned out to be a large-scale wooden building, and the sound of striking iron with a "ding bell" was heard outside the door, and it was noisy.

As soon as the three of them walked into the house, they felt a hot air mixed with the smell of sweat coming to their faces, an old man raised his eyes and saw a noble son in a purple robe, who was extraordinary, the powerful follower was murderous, and the other attendant was flattering, and suddenly felt that a big customer was coming, and hurriedly picked up the sweat towel on his shoulder and wiped his old face to greet him.

"Old man Yang Ming, I've seen my son! I don't know Childe, I came to the shop to build a sword? Or is it a short blade? The sword made by our old Yang blacksmith shop is well-known far and wide, and even the sons of the princes and grandsons of the noble families in Xijing have placed orders! The old man looked quite thin, but his arms were knotted with muscles, and his long, narrow eyes showed a glimmer of light from time to time, making him look capable and shrewd.

"Ahem, I'm not here to build weapons!" Wei Wu was a little embarrassed by the old man's respectful attitude, and then his old face was raised, and he said with a look of a gentleman: "Let's see if you can do it, this kind of thing." ”

Wei Wu took out a pen and paper from his arms, carefully drew the imaginary lighter, and then drew the parts according to the proportions in the impression. raised the paper in his hand, handed it to Yang Ming and said, "This, can you make it?" ”

Yang Ming took the blank paper, but saw that it was a long flat ground pictured, and on the right side were many strange parts, including prototype gears with holes, and strangely shaped iron sheets. Frowning and thinking for a while, he only felt that he had never seen this thing, so he waved his hand respectfully and asked, "This, the old man's shop has never done it, I don't know what the son wants to make"

"Brother Wei, I'm asking if you can make it, not asking you to ask him what to make! You old man, if you can do it, you can do it, if you can't do it, you have to do it! Sun Zhuoyi frowned, and his fierce face was revealed.

Yang Ming felt that he was also a character in Ezhou, and when he was building household things for Lord Thorn Shi, even Lord Thorn Shi didn't dare to talk to him like this, his face changed, and his brows were about to attack. As soon as the surrounding blacksmiths saw that the boss had a conflict with someone, they spontaneously surrounded them, and for a while, five or six ** men with upper bodies held a blacksmith hammer in their hands and surrounded Wei Wusan tightly.

Wei Wuyi saw that this Sun Zhuoyi was messy again, and when he saw that Yang Ming's old face was full of unkindness, he hurriedly waved his hand and stepped forward to make a round. "Mr. Yang, my brother's surname is just a little impatient, you can be old."

"Hmph, you can't build this little shop." Yang Ming frowned, pursed the corners of his mouth like frosted grass, and his old face was full of impatience to give the eviction order.

"Eh, old gentleman, old gentleman, let's hey, don't push me" Liang Hui hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, but was pushed out of the door by two big men.

A moment later, Wei Wusan stood at the door and looked at each other.

Wei Wu looked at Sun Zhuoyi, who had nothing to do with him and an innocent expression, and gritted his teeth and said, "Sun, Brother Sun!" You"

Sun Zhuoyi looked dazed, opened his mouth and bared his teeth: "Hmph, this little blacksmith shop, can't it be a big bully?" I'll go in and slaughter them all." He pulled out the long knife at his waist and was about to rush in with a loud shout to kill, but was dragged by Wei Wuyi to death.

Wei Wu cried with a sad face, and said with a crying voice: "Brother Sun, also, I am still bothering you to be old, you don't have to go in, I will go in with Liang Hui to negotiate again" As soon as the words fell, a sudden shout came.

"This son, are you going to build things?" Wei Wu looked back and saw that a young man with a rather thin figure, wearing a white linen shirt and blue trousers, approached him.

The young man was of ordinary appearance and dressed in the extreme, and the only thing that made an impression was the complexion of his face, which was slightly reddened.

Obediently knock, this guy, is it Guan Yunchang's descendant? Wei Wuyi saw that this young man's face was flushed, and he immediately remembered the martial saint. With a wry smile, he took two steps closer and said, "Brother Tai, your surname is Guan?" ”

This "descendant of Guan Yu" was obviously startled by the expression of the young man in gorgeous clothes in front of him, and secretly teased in his heart, could it be that this son is a good man? He couldn't help but take a step back, his face was tense, and he said vigilantly: "I, I don't have the surname Guan!" My surname is Wu! ”

When Wei Wuyi heard that he was not a descendant of Guan Yu, he immediately glanced at this copycat version of Guan Yu's descendant in disappointment, and said with a sigh of relief: "Well, Brother Wu, you just asked me if I was building things?" Could it be that you will build? ”

"Yes, the little one has learned the art of building with his father since he was a child, but Lao Yang has a cousin who works as a housekeeper in the Thorn History Mansion, and now the entire Ezhou building business has been taken over by Lao Yang's blacksmith shop, so" The "copycat version of Guan Yu's descendants" said this, with a helpless face.

Isn't this fucking the collusion of officials and businessmen to monopolize the market, what's so unusual. Wei Wu pursed the corners of his lips and said, "Well, so you other blacksmith shops are closed, and you go to work in Lao Yang's shop, isn't that so?" ”

"Yes, how did Childe know so clearly? The villain Wu An, before his father's death, there were still some old patrons in the family who often visited, but after the death of his father, these old patrons alas! Wu An sighed, full of sorrow, and his face was gloomy.

"Fifth brother, I know five hundred years, two thousand years down, can this little thing not be clear?" Wei Wu pursed the corners of his mouth, and seeing this Wu An's dejected appearance, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, do you have blacksmith tools in your house now?" Take us there! ”

"Yes, yes! Childe also please come here" As soon as Wu An heard that this noble son intended to hand over the business to himself, he immediately smiled, and changed his face so fast that Wei Wusan was stunned.

Wu An's home is also quite shabby, there are only two broken houses in the courtyard, the northeast corner is a broken house, from the door can be faintly seen in the middle of the house put a big stove, a bellows is set up by the hearth, it is the iron shop, and one side is a slightly neat wooden house, do not think about it and know that it is Wu An's permanent residence.

Wei Wu saw that there were only two huts in this huge courtyard, and shook his head secretly, sure enough, in any prosperous era, there are poor people.

Wu An dragged over three small stools and invited Wei Wu and the three of them to sit down, but he stood respectfully beside Wei Wu, kept rubbing his hands, and looked at the white paper in Wei Wu's hand a little nervously.

"Wu An, come, sit here, look at this thing, can you do it?" Wei Wu smiled and handed the drawing in his hand to Wu An, then stood up, and wandered around the courtyard with his hands in his hands.

Wu An looked at Wei Wu, who was walking in the courtyard by himself, and sometimes picked a leaf and put it in his mouth, and suddenly felt that this son was very different from the other rich children he had seen. He sat down on a stool, spread out the drawings, and looked at them with a frown.

After a long time, Wu An stood up, walked to the house in twos and threes, found a piece of black and mushy things, brushed off the dust on it with his hands, walked in front of Wei Wu, and whispered: "Wei Gongzi, look, there is a layer here, but this looks?" ”

Wei Wu took the thing handed over by Wu An, and at first glance, it was something like a canned food box, the top end was open, and the bottom was tightly sealed, but it was no different from what he looked like, but it was too big.

"This, liner, can you make it smaller?" Wei Wu asked with a slightly excited expression.

"What liners? This is the small box I made myself, which I used to hold the loose pieces of iron. But it's also troublesome to be smaller, you need to put two pieces of iron" Wu An rubbed his hands and whispered with a flushed face.

"Don't care how many pieces of iron sheets, this outer book should be thinner, the upper edge" Wei Wu explained excitedly for a long time, the essentials of the production of this inner tank, as well as the places that need to be paid attention to, including where to open and where to leave a fixed bracket Then he looked up and asked: "You, understand?" ”

Wu An's face was originally flushed, but now it was even redder, he opened his mouth and muttered, "Childe, you said too fast"

"Don't call me any son, call me Wei Wu, or Fifth Brother!" Wei Wuyi saw that the big thing could be accomplished, and immediately became excited, casually corrected the title to Wu An, and hurriedly took out a piece of paper from his arms, and drew this guts carefully according to the memory of his previous life, and was afraid that Wu An would not understand, so he took Wu An's iron box, and explained it for half an hour with his hand, until Wu An nodded and understood all the specifications and sizes. Wei Wu explained this gut clearly, and his heart was relieved, but he suddenly heard Sun Zhuoyi grinning: "Haha, Liang Hui, what you said is true?" The girl in this hibiscus building is really fat and strong, let's go and have a look? Today, I invite you to eat flower wine! ”;
