Chapter 17: Getting into Trouble

Qu Rong was very happy to see Zhong Wuregret, she didn't expect Zhong Wuregret to come to her, as soon as she heard that Zhong Wuregret was going to discuss important matters with her father, she dragged Zhong Wuregret to his father's study.

"Oh, my mom, why is it 'tatami mat' again?" Zhong Wuregret secretly complained in his heart. This kind of room can only sit on knees, and it is really difficult for him to sit for a long time like this.

"Hello, county lord!" Seeing Qu Rong's father, Zhong Wuregret took off the hat and bowed to the county prince. Qu Rong's father is called Qu Hai, and he listens to Qu Rong blowing Zhong Wuregret all day long, saying how talented and capable he is, and his ears are tired of hearing it.

Qu Hai knows his daughter quite well, dancing and playing with swords all day long, and when she is more than fourteen years old, she has never looked at a boy at all. But now, the thief who hated her to the bone and wanted to cut her into eighteen pieces was hung on his lips, so Qu Hai was also interested, he wanted to see what kind of person Zhong Wuregret was?

Otherwise, what kind of result a girl's worship of the thief will have, no matter which parent thinks about it, it will naturally be creepy.

Qu Hai stared at Zhong Wuregret's eyes and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Last time, I promised to give Qu Rong a unique treasure in the country, and today I brought it, and I want the county to enjoy it together." Zhong Wuregret's eyes were clear and he said calmly.

"Okay!" Qu Rong screamed happily: "What baby, show me quickly." ”

Zhong Wuregret took out a lamp carved from wood from his arms.

The lamp is carved into the shape of a leaping fish, hollowed out in the middle of the lying fish's body, and the lamp twist is connected from the belly of the fish to the cocked tail. After Zhong Wuregret asked Qu Rong to close the door, he poured out the lamp oil from the bamboo joint, injected it into the belly of the fish, and after the lamp twist was soaked in oil, he took out the fire fold and lit the lamp.

The twist of the lamp kept burning, illuminating the room, and Qu Hai and Qu Rong were dumbfounded.

"It's time to open the door." Zhong Wuregret extinguished the lamp: "This is the lamp that we will change the lives of our people!" ”

"Lights!" Qu Hai became excited: "I heard that Chen Guoqing's doctor Chen Ming invented the candle, Chen Guodu was overjoyed, and someone brought it to us to show off, we have a lamp, better than them, this time it's time for us to show off to them." ”

Qu Hai said, because he was excited, he didn't notice that Zhong Wuregret's face was getting more and more gloomy.

Qu Rong quietly pulled his father along.

"What's wrong? Shouldn't such a big event be happy? Qu Hai was a little puzzled by his daughter's behavior.

Zhong Wuregret said, "Qu Rong, it's okay." ”

Qu Hai also found that something was wrong with the situation, and looked at Zhong Wuregret with a puzzled expression.

Zhong Wuregret said: "The candle was snatched by Chen Ming from me, he attacked Cao Zhuang and killed a lot of people, and my family's Yue Weng also died at his hands." ”

"What?" Qu Hai was furious when he heard this, "They dare to offend my Chu State." ”

Zhong Wuregret said calmly: "I can't say that they made a mistake, they did it very secretly, no one caught their handle, now is not the time to deal with them, but this blood feud, I will definitely revenge, but it will be too late and early." ”

As he spoke, he changed the subject: "County magistrate, let's talk about this lamp." What I just saw is just a lamp mold I made, and the wooden one will definitely not take long, but if we cast it into a bronze lamp, or make it into a pottery lamp, it will not break for hundreds of years. ”

"Archaeological excavations are more valuable." It's just that I muttered this sentence in my heart and didn't say it.

Qu Hai stroked the wooden lamp and praised endlessly: "Good! Good! ”

"This lamp can definitely make a lot of money by making and selling, so I want to cooperate with the county government to do the business of this lamp, I don't know what the county will do?"

"Work with me?" Zhong Wuregret's thinking changed too quickly. Qu Hai hadn't reacted yet.

Zhong Wuregret continued: "When no one wants to come up with this lamp, they don't know how to do it, but after making it, it's very simple to learn how to do it. If that's the case, it's certainly not fair to me that something I've spent years coming up with is stolen for nothing.

After the lamp was done, the county magistrate ordered that within six months, we could only buy our lamp, and if there was any imitation, in addition to sending it to the official for legal action, it would also be fined. The county magistrate will take these six months as my remuneration after mental work, and we will divide the profits into three-seven, and I will be seven and you three, how about it? Six months later, whoever wants to do this lamp will do it, and everyone will no longer care. Okay? ”

"What kind of mental work, three or seven points," Qu Hai was dizzy with a noun he had never heard, and he waved his hand and said: "No, as the lord of a county, how can I compete with the people for profit?" ”

"Yikes! There were really Qing officials in this ancient world! I'm asking for a six-month patent term, which is interesting. Zhong Wuregret secretly thought, but he thought about it, after all, he said to Qu Hai confidently: "It is precisely because you are the lord of a county that this money is to be taken, the lord of a county is the parent official of the people, how can parents not care about their children, if the people have a natural disaster**, the parents will not care?" What if you don't have money? Watching your children suffer? Moreover, making lamps is our cooperation, and the people will also say that their parents and officials will bring them light, maybe this light will be brought to the palace, and as soon as the king of Chu is happy, he will seal you...... What to do, why not do this beneficial, reasonable, and promising thing? Zhong Wuregret didn't know what officials the county prince could seal, so he casually went over.

Zhong Wuregret's crackling words really choked Qu Hai.

Qu Rong shook Qu Hai's arm and said coquettishly: "Dad, such a good thing, why don't you do it and I will do it, and all the money you earn will be given to you." ”

Qu Hai thought about it, Qu Rong was fine anyway, she took a few little sisters to dance with knives and guns all day long, and she was uneven, so it was better to find something for her and collect her wildness. Besides, Zhong Wuregret let others not be able to make lamps for six months, maybe it was just to scare and scare people, so he agreed to Zhong Wuregret's conditions.

Qu Hai Zhengyan said to Qu Rong: "Doing things is doing things, but the money earned must be handed over to the county treasury, and it is not allowed to be kept privately for future disaster relief." ”

"Pull the tiger skin to make a big flag!" Zhong Wuregret is happy in his heart, this is his real purpose, no matter what he does in the future, he must first bring a sentence: "The county prince said ......", not to mention that the county prince's daughter is beside him, who dares to doubt his identity as an "adulterous thief"? He had already prepared for arrears of wages and material costs, and the lamps would be sold before repayment.

For other people's possible piracy, he has already made a countermeasure, he is ready to secretly make a large number of lamps, batch listing, even if others pirate, it will take a certain amount of time, by then, he has already made money, and will also make a few high-quality lamps, to the princely and powerful family, the network began to establish.

I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, Zhong Wuregret said goodbye to the county official and prepared to go home.

When he walked through a street, he saw a group of people around, and there was a burst of beating and scolding in the crowd, Zhong Wuregret got out of the car and walked over, only to see a few family members boxing and kicking around a middle-aged man in tattered clothes, and constantly scolding in his mouth: "You cheat and cheat, say that you have a treasure to give to your son, and after raising you for a few months, you will bring a few puppies, and you are not looking for death by this method." ”

A housekeeper said, "Kill the dog first, and then settle accounts with him." ”

A family member agreed, drew a knife and slashed at a litter of puppies in a bamboo cage.

"Don't!" The man screamed and threw himself into the cage, he actually wanted to use his body to prevent the knife from cutting the puppy, seeing that this man was about to die under the knife, some people in the crowd had closed their eyes, and they couldn't bear to see this human tragedy.

"Dang!" With a sound, a sword opened the knife, Zhong Wuregret protected the middle-aged man in front of him, and said to those family members: "Cheating and drinking is not a capital crime, right?" ”

"What can he do to find my own death." The family said menacingly, but he didn't dare to face Zhong Wuregret, Zhong Wuregret easily picked off his sword, which made him feel frightened.

In the era of cold weapons, martial arts is the real way to protect oneself, and with Cao Yun'e, Zhong Wuregret's responsibility is even greater, in addition to self-protection, he also has to protect his family.

When he practiced sanda, he especially liked Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, because Jeet Kune Do had jumped out of martial arts itself and became the philosophy of martial arts. Although I didn't find a famous teacher for guidance, I can't say that when I met a strong enemy, I stretched my neck and was stabbed! Before meeting the famous teacher again, Zhong Wuregret began to think about how to apply the martial arts philosophy of Jeet Kune Do to the sword.

Streamlining - direct - unconventional is the central idea of Jeet Kune Do. "Taking the impossible as the law, and the infinite as the finite" is the core of the philosophy of Jeet Kune Do.

Zhong Wuregret thinks that the so-called moves are just the usual offensive and defensive routines, no matter what martial arts there are only two words in the end, that is, "attack and defense", and restoring martial arts to its essence is "fighting". The ultimate of Jeet Kune Do is not in the trivial, scattered one-and-a-half moves, but the cultivation of the soul and the training of the extreme exertion.

The sword is light and agile, and it is the "king of a hundred soldiers", which is mainly based on splitting, chopping, collapsing, teasing, gridding, washing, intercepting, stabbing, stirring, pressing, hanging, and clouding. Zhong Wuregret racked his brains, filtered all the sword moves he had learned in his previous life, even if they were performative, and then picked out the most practical stabs, splits, interceptions, and swords, combined with the philosophical core of Jeet Kune Do, repeated training, and strived to be the first in speed.

No matter how good the move is, there is no speed, it is equal to no move, others have penetrated your body, no matter how good the move is, you can only go to the underworld to practice, what's the point? Zhong Wuregret gave his swordsmanship a name, called "Sword Interception".

Today, Zhong Wuregret's "Sword Interception" made its first appearance, and he was amazed.

The housekeeper looks like a person worthy of experience, he saw Zhong Wuregret shot, he knew that it was difficult to please if he touched hard at this time, he said to Zhong Wuregret and said: "We are the people of Doufu," and then pointed to the beaten person and said: "This son was once praised by the master as a guest, however, he did not think about the lord's grace, and played the master with a dog, although he was a guest, but this son did not kill, and it was difficult to calm the anger of everyone." ”

"Doufu?" Zhong Wuregret "chuckled" in his heart.

The more you are afraid of ghosts, the more you hit ghosts. Seeing this, the housekeeper put his hands behind his back and said proudly: "The sect master of the Doufu is Yin Chengjia, the current commander of the Chu State. ”

"My mother, I bumped into Gaogan's Mansion again, and the matter of Pan's Mansion is not over, and I met Doufu again." Zhong Wuregret secretly complained in his heart, why was he so unlucky, he had just beaten the subordinates of Pan Chong, the prince of Chu, and the family of the high-ranking official Ling Yin.

Ling Yin is the official name of the Chu State, the highest official of the Chu State, equivalent to the prime minister of the Central Plains official system, just like today's premier of the State Council.

Although he does not have the confidence of "my father is Li Gang", Zhong Wuregret mistakenly thought that he had the county official as a backer, and he came forward to fight grievances, which somewhat improved his "obscene name" image. Unexpectedly, in a small county, there are many relatives of "high-level cadres", and the water is so deep.

However, Zhong Wuregret is not the kind of wreck who shrinks his head when he encounters trouble. He was in a hurry, and said to the butler, "This man is like my former countryman, and you say that he cheated on food and drink, and didn't he eat at your house for a few months?" With that, he took out fifty taels of silver from his bosom and said to the butler-like man, "Well, I will pay for the meal for him, and how about you let him go, this little silver should be enough to pay for the meal, right?" If it's not enough, I'll add a little more. ”

"Hahaha! Take the hat off and see how much face you have. The butler-like man laughed: "You really underestimate Doufu." ”

Suddenly, his face sank, and with a wave of his hand, the family members took knives and rushed up violently, threatening to chop Zhong Wuregret into meat puree.
