After the three of them left, Xiao Yao returned to the room alone, found a pen and paper, and while recalling carefully, sketched on the paper, and accurately calculated various numbers.

An hour passed, Xiao Yao stood in front of the table, looking down at the "mechanical drawing" in front of him, his brows furrowed tightly, as if he was not very satisfied with the masterpiece just now. Unable to sigh, he said in his heart: "I am in a hurry, I can only use it first, I don't know if they can collect all the materials." ”

I came to the window, pushed it open, looked at the pedestrians on the street, and fell into deep thought. Now that my own strength is insufficient, second, I lack money, third, I have no power, if I want to be strong, all three are indispensable, and I have almost nothing now, how to protect my relatives around me? You can only find another way to make full use of your advantages as a traverser!

Martial arts low? Lao Tzu will make guns and cannons, no matter how high your martial arts are, you will not be able to escape a bullet from Lao Tzu after all!

No money, no power? I'm going to build a business empire! Recruit troops, form a new century team, and sweep the continent!

After a moment of contemplation, he closed the window and walked out of the inn towards the city. Meng Ling'er was injured again, and the blow to him was undoubtedly huge, Xiao Yao couldn't bear it anymore, even if he disturbed the world, he didn't hesitate to do it.

Tong Guò asked the vendors on the side of the road, found out where the blacksmith shop was, and went straight to it. After turning a few streets and entering a deep alley, I had not yet reached the door, and I had already heard the sound of "clanging" iron from the yard.

Entering the courtyard, the apprentice who struck iron brought Xiao Yao into the house to serve tea, and ran to call the master himself.

After a moment's effort, I didn't see his person, but I heard his voice first. I only heard a sonorous voice from the backyard: "What do the guests want?" Take me there quickly, you can't let the door-to-door business run away. After a while, I saw a strong man with a bare chest and breasts, eight feet tall and a dark complexion, walk into the room, and his solid muscles could also tell that this person was the master that the apprentice had invited.

Xiao Yao got up to greet him, chatted briefly, and spread out the drawings he brought on the table for him to watch by himself. After he finished reading and raised his head, Xiao Yao asked, "How?" Are you sure you'll be able to build something on the drawing for me? ”

My blacksmith shop has not had business for a while, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that I will not even be able to eat. Thinking of this, Guo Er's heart was not happy, even the daughter-in-law who had just married into the door was now nagging in his ear all day long. Speaking of which, I blame myself for not being able to do it, offending the official and cutting off my own financial route.

Today, the business was finally sent to the door, Guo Er almost jumped up with joy, and hurriedly beckoned the apprentice to run to the front yard. But after reading Xiao Yao's drawings, his brows were deeply squeezed together, the things on the drawings he had never seen before, not only were they extremely strange, but the sizes were marked one by one, and they couldn't be different. Since leaving the school, I have been on my own for more than ten years, and it is the first time I have taken over such a difficult and delicate job.

looked at the drawings several times, and finally could only sigh helplessly, and replied in frustration: "Guo is not good at learning, I am afraid that I will disappoint the uncle, I can only type these two parts, and the rest can not be done." As he spoke, he pointed to the two relatively large parts he had mentioned.

"The rest of the few really can't do it? Silver is not a problem, as long as you can give me what I want. Xiao Yaofeng said lightly, and he was afraid that they would not care, and when he entered the door, he had already seen that the business of the iron shop here was bleak, so he deliberately mentioned silver.

Guo Er didn't want to take over this deal, but his ability was really limited, and when he heard Xiao Yao mention the silver, he was itching again, and he regretted for the first time that he didn't put more effort into learning art with his master, otherwise how could he let the life-saving silver sent to the door fly away today! Another heavy sigh, if only the master was here.

Thinking of his master, Guo Er suddenly raised his head and asked Xiao Yao: "I can't make these things, but if you have a trick, please move my master, it is estimated that his old man can build it!" Since learning art with the master, I know that the master has a quirky personality, and many famous people in the rivers and lakes have made a special trip to ask the master to build weapons for them, and most of them are disappointed.

"Oh? Where is your master now? Take me there! Xiao Yao suddenly came to the spirit, as long as he can type these things, it is not a problem.

Guo Er saw Xiao Yao's excited appearance, still sat there, and replied: "The master lives in Dongting Mountain in the Dongting Lake in the west of the city, and every year on the first day of August, we will go to the island to celebrate the birthday of the master and his old man, and the master is not allowed to disturb us on our own for the rest of the time." ”

The meaning is clear, that is, it is only April day to tell Xiao Yao, and he just wants to help him, but it is also at the wrong time.

Xiao Yao paced back and forth in the room for two steps, turned around and said, "Listening to Brother Guo, the respected teacher is paranoid, can Brother Guo tell me about the likes and dislikes of the respected teacher, and I can climb the mountain to visit by myself?" Whether it is successful or not, I have presented you with Brother Guo. ”

Guo Er pondered secretly for a moment, these are not some ulterior secrets, besides, the master's temperament is changeable and elusive, so he simply generously came to Xiao Yao without reservation, and it was good to be able to help some.

After a cup of tea, Xiao Yao got up to say goodbye, and took out ten taels of silver as a reward for his guidance. Guo Er did not shirk and accepted the silver, and said with a wry smile: "A gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way, but my brother's blacksmith shop has no silver relief, and I really can't get by, my brother sincerely thank you" said and bowed to Xiao Yao for a while, but it was a true temperament.

He and Wei Wu returned to the inn with their front and back feet, told them about Meng Ling'er's injury, set up to stay here for a while, and explained some things to them, before they went out with confidence and went straight to Dongting Lake in the west of the city.

The hour had passed, the light rain had not stopped, Xiao Yao came to the shore of Dongting Lake, searched for a small boat, and gave him two taels of silver, and the boatman agreed to send him to the island. It's not that the boatman doesn't make money, it's just that he is a little afraid of the legend of Dongting Mountain, and he doesn't dare to approach it lightly.

The boatman rowed the boat, left the shore but still persuaded Xiao Yao: "This son, why do you have to wait for that island, don't you know, the waters around the island always find nameless dead bodies, the death is very terrifying, the government has visited the island many times to check the evidence, but all in vain, I advise the son not to go!" ”

First, he saw that Xiao Yao was generous and kind to people, so he kindly reminded him, and secondly, he also planned for himself, for fear that this business would give him his life, and the gains would outweigh the losses, but he didn't dare to tell Xiao Yao the legend of the water ghost, after all, those are too ethereal.

"It's really a last resort, there is something important to land on the island, and my brother's kindness can only be understood." Xiao Yao was at ease, pretending to thank the boatman as if nothing had happened, but he reminded himself to be more careful. It's just that even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire ahead, Xiao Yao has already made up his mind to go forward.
