Chapter 68: Kitchen Knives
"Guest! What do you think of this spring and autumn sword? Forged by the masters of our time! No, not a go-getter...... But he's not inferior to him! You see, there are also signatures! Ay! Don't go! ”
Wang Luli shook off the merchant in the wide-sleeved robe and continued to wander around the square in the middle of the city in the Falling Turbulence Valley.
Seeing Cheng Wulin's rice card printer, although he didn't say it, he was still a little envious of Cheng Wulin having the printer before him.
Although he was determined to condense a seal with Cheng Wulin, the seal needed to be infused with strong emotions before it could be condensed. And even if some people have strong emotions, they have a high chance of failing, just making ordinary daylight instruments.
Either way, let's pick a handy thing and give it a try.
He walked around the outer circle of the square, still unable to think of any base items worthy of the emotions he poured into his body.
Hey, that's hard......
“…… A kitchen knife that sharpens iron like clay! A shout came to his ears.
He poked his neck and glanced through the crowd. The kitchen knives sold at this small stall are indeed sharp, and the stall owner, dressed in clothes from an unknown era, holds a square kitchen knife in one hand. Effortlessly chopping a handful of wire in his other hand like chopping chopping onions.
However, the people around didn't seem to pay much attention to this stall. Wang Luli understands the thoughts of customers very well, this kitchen knife is so sharp but there is no matching cutting board, and ordinary cutting boards will probably be chopped with the knife along with the ingredients, so it is not practical at all.
And if you accidentally cut off a finger or something to cook......
However, Wang Luli's purpose is not to cook, you can still ask.
"Hello." He stepped forward.
"Ahh Hello! Want a kitchen knife? The boss raised the kitchen knife without warning, and Wang Luli dodged backwards and accidentally bumped into a slightly rich old woman.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" After apologizing, Wang Luli turned around and asked the boss, "How did this knife become so sharp?" There's no daylight, right? ”
"You're ancient, aren't you?" The boss asked rhetorically.
The corners of Wang Luli's mouth twitched when he heard this. It's called an ancient person or something, and it feels like a pharaoh's mummy...... The stall owner is also not very polite, and the mirror usually asks each other by chronology, and never uses the "ancient and modern" time standard that has no fixed scale.
The modernity of the ancient is the ancient of the future. When Wang Luli and Cheng Wulin said this, Cheng Wulin took a long time to understand.
"Ah, I am." Wang Luli simply admitted.
"This is the vacuum metal technology of the future! You see, although this knife is one, in fact, there is a vacuum between each molecule on the knife surface, which makes the knife have no resistance when cutting, and! The forging of the blade is made of ......"
"That's right," Wang Luli made sure that the knife was not daylight, and used perfunctory responses to interrupt the stall owner's sales explanation one after another, "Boss." Can you make this knife custom-made? ”
"Yes, what do you want?"
"Probably that long, right?" Wang Luli stretched out his arms and gestured, "The thinner, the better." ”
"So long?" The stall owner was surprised, "This is almost catching up with the sword, right?" What do you use to cut? ”
"Cut the Mammoth ......"
"Wow!" The stall owner didn't hear the ridicule in Wang Luli's tone at all, "That's really bigger!" ”
"Can you cut a mammoth? Give Lao Tzu a handful too! A man dressed in animal skins who looked like a monkey squeezed Wang Luli aside, and then patted him on the back, "Brother, which tribe is from?" ”
“……”
The primitive man picked out an ordinary kitchen knife and left, and the stall owner asked Wang Luli again: "If you are sure that you want it, I will get it for you right now." ”
"Okay."
The stall owner's figure disappeared in a flash, and when he reappeared five minutes later, a long knife that was very similar to Wang Lu's expectation had already appeared in his hand.
"So fast!" Wang Luli said in surprise.
"Haha, my aircraft is parked near the location of the Nether Falling Turbulent Valley, and it will fly for you as soon as it appears! Do you know what an aircraft is? ”
"I know, I know......" Wang Luli waved his hand, took the knife handed over by the stall owner and looked at it in his hand.
This "modified kitchen knife" is about one meter long, the blade is straight, there is a thin blood groove on the side of the blade, and the tip of the knife is improved, unlike the right angle of ordinary kitchen knives, nor like the roundness of the tip of Japanese knives, but forged into a clear sharp obtuse angle. The handle is black throughout, and it has been carefully polished to create a non-slip matte texture. The whole knife has no extra decoration, and the whole body is shining with a bright silver metallic luster, which looks very handsome.
"Great!" Wang Luli's eyes were shining, and the more he looked at this knife, the more pleasing it became, "...... This mammoth cut ...... casually."
"That's it! My family has been dealing in household knives since ancient times! I'll tell you that people used steel to make kitchen knives back then! But you don't know much about it, haha, you still used stone tools back then......"
"Hahahaha......" Wang Luli smiled, staring at the knife with good eyes.
At this time, a pair of customers who looked like mothers and daughters wandered to the kitchen knife stall.
"Mom, look! Are there antique kitchen knives for sale? Do you want to buy one? ”
"Don't buy it...... the mother whispered into her daughter's ear, "Our laser kitchen knife is much better than this......"
"If you don't buy it, go now!" The stall owner pulled his round hat, rolled his eyes, and then changed his smiling face to Wang Luli again, "How about it, little brother, do you want to buy it?" ”
"How do you sell this knife, boss?"
"Then show me what you brought."
In the mirror, the existence of money is usually meaningless, and the small things that are inconspicuous in a certain era are exchanged for future people are the best cultural relics. So the purchase of goods is usually in the form of barter.
"Ahh Wang Luli touched his pocket, "I only have this, do you think it's okay?" ”
He pulled out a small bottle of gasoline. In the nether of the future, humanity has developed new energy sources, and fossil fuels have been mined out shortly after their time.
"Hey, this is good, this is good!" The boss's eyes lit up, and then he frowned, "Aren't you from the Ice Age?" How could there be such a ......?"
"Haha, I was joking!"
"Okay, I'll just say you don't look like ...... I thought I could get some mammoth ivory from you......" the stall owner said in a low voice, "after all, it is officially forbidden to buy and sell this ancient and endangered species...... During the Ice Age, mammoths were killed and exterminated by a large buyer's bill, and it was so difficult for us ordinary people to get ......"
