Song Ruilong said resolutely: "No, other stores can't get out."

As Song Ruilong spoke, he had already brought a bronze sword in his hand to the blacksmith Wang.

Blacksmith Wang was stunned for a moment, stopped what he was doing, and said, "What do you mean by this, guest officer?" If you already have a bronze sword, why do you need to build another bronze sword? ”

Song Ruilong said: "Because it is not old enough. This sword looks as if it was from the Qin Dynasty, but it has been around for no more than three years. ”

Blacksmith Wang glared at Song Ruilong and said, "If the guest officer wants an ancient sword, he can go to the antiquities collection shop, all the ironware produced here is the latest iron, how can it be possible to make something from the Qin Dynasty?"

Blacksmith Wang still had to continue to work, Song Ruilong grabbed the handle of the hammer with his hand, and said, "Blacksmith Wang, I won't laugh at you, you should tell me the origin of this bronze sword in my hand."

Blacksmith Wang slowly put down the hammer in his hand, let Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong into the shop, and said: "What are the two of you doing, you might as well say it directly, if Xiaomin can't help anything, Xiaomin can't do anything."

Su Xianrong smiled and said: "Blacksmith Wang is really fast-talking, I knew that Blacksmith Wang was such a person, so we didn't have to go around in such a big circle." Su Xianrong looked at Song Ruilong, "This is Song Ruilong, the county magistrate of our Ping'an County, I came to you today to confirm one thing to you." ”

Blacksmith Wang was stunned, and he was about to kneel down to salute, when Song Ruilong said, "No need." There are no outsiders here, and the county is a private visit to Weifu, so there is no need to salute. ”

"Hey!" Blacksmith Wang was a little flattered.

Song Ruilong handed the bronze sword in his hand to Blacksmith Wang and said, "Blacksmith Wang, can you see if this sword was made by you?" Song Ruilong also deliberately pointed to the word "feather" on the hilt of the sword.

When the blacksmith took the sword, he saw the word "feather", and he put the top of the hilt to his eyes, looked at it by the light of the fire, and said, "That's right, this sword was built by me three years ago." The word 'feather' on the hilt of the sword was requested by the guest, and I deliberately carved the word 'Wang' on the top of the hilt, and the 'Wang' represents my surname. My name is Wang Shicheng."

Su Xianrong took the bronze sword and said, "Do you still remember, what was the name of the person who asked you to build this sword back then?"

Wang Shicheng recalled: "At that time, the man was wearing a hat and a black dress, gave me a large piece of bronze, and paid a deposit of one hundred taels, saying that he would ask for the goods the next day and let me build it overnight." I didn't want to take that business at the time, but the money was too glaring. ”

Song Ruilong was a little disappointed and said, "Didn't the blacksmith Wang recognize that person?"

Wang Shicheng said: "Yes! However, from the voice of his voice, I could tell his age, about fifty-five years old, and judging by his height, he was not very tall, about seven feet. I don't know anything other than that. ”

After Su Xianrong and Song Ruilong got up, Song Ruilong said: "Blacksmith Wang, if you want to think of something, you can come to the yamen to find this county at any time." Because this bronze sword involves several lives, we need it very much about the bronze sword. ”

Blacksmith Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and after sending Song Ruilong away, he immediately picked up the hammer and beat it again.

After Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong left Wang Shicheng's blacksmith shop, Song Ruilong said to Su Xianrong: "How far is it from Zhao Yuanwaifu?" ”

Su Xianrong looked at the street and said, "This is Pingyun Road, Zhao Yuanwaifu is on Pingding Road, a hundred zhang east of Yipinxiang Teahouse." Is Brother Song going now? ”

Song Ruilong said worriedly: "I'm afraid that if it's too late, his life will be gone." ”

Su Xianrong said in surprise: "Are you doubting that the people of the Zhao family will kill him?" ”

Song Ruilong pondered and said, "That's what I'm most worried about. ”

Su Xianrong said: "But in what name did Brother Song arrest Hu Wei?" ”

Song Ruilong already had an idea in his heart, and said: "We have Zhao Li's confession, and we can directly let Hu Wei confront him." As long as he walks into the county office, we can protect him, and if he can tell the truth of the matter, then we can even arrest Zhao Hongfei. ”

Su Xianrong agreed: "Well, that's good, let's go to Zhao Yuanwaifu now." ”

Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong walked along Pingding Road, passed the lively and prosperous Yipinxiang Teahouse, walked about 100 zhang to the east, and saw two very luxurious gates in the south of the road.

The two pairs of stone lions in front of the door are tall and mighty, and their eyes are bright.

The stone lion also has two large bells tied around its neck.

There are four lanterns hanging on the top of the gate, two on each side, and a pair of pairs on either side of the door:

The days increase and the years increase the longevity;

Spring is full of blessings.

Horizontal batch: Shou and Tianqi

Song Ruilong thought in his heart: "What a big breath! ”

He looked up again and saw four gilded characters "Zhao Yuanwaifu".

There were two gatekeepers in front of the door of Zhao Yuanwaifu, tall and majestic, each carrying a lantern in his hand, seeing Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong coming, the eyes of the two people looked at each other, walked down the steps from the main gate together, stood in the middle of the two stone lions, looked at Song Ruilong, and said, "What are you doing?" ”

At this time, Song Ruilong found that the person on the left was holding a lantern in his right hand, and his left hand had already grabbed the red cloth around the stone lion's neck.

Under the red cloth is a big bell, once something bad happens, let the family ring the bell, it is equivalent to sounding the alarm bell, I am afraid that many people will come out soon.

Song Ruilong said: "What are you not doing? Just want to talk to your staff about a deal. ”

Song Ruilong was still dressed as a ranger, he took out the fan in his hand and fanned it a few times, looking unconcerned.

Su Xianrong also saw the actions of the two family members, but she didn't know why Song Ruilong wanted to anger the two family members.

The man with the red cloth in his hand glared and said, "What are you?" Want to talk to my lord about business too? ”

Song Ruilong said with some anger in his heart: "Your master owes 100,000 taels of silver, and tonight, we are here to collect the debt." Hurry up and let your master come out. ”

The big man holding the red cloth said angrily: "You don't pee yourself, and people like you dare to say that my lord owes you an account?" Before the two of us get angry, get out of here, or be careful of your flesh and skin. ”

Song Ruilong pulled a strand of his hair with his hand and said, "Heh, it is said that the courtyard is as deep as the sea, it seems that this sentence is not false at all." You Zhao Yuanwai owe other people's debts. Not only did he not pay it back, but even when the creditor came, his family did not let him enter the door, which is simply unreasonable! ”
