“…… It's long gone, where are you going to chase it? The city gate official pushed the suitcase aside, "Little girl, hurry up." ”

"I beg my eldest brother to be accommodating...... Throwing the suitcase on the snow, Mu Wanqiu took off her gloves and took them into her arms, and the thirteen dollars left over from Li Laohan's sale of Baiye Xiang for her yesterday were still in her pocket.

The little official at the city gate glanced at the pitiful few coins in Mu Wanqiu's hand, "It's not that I'm not accommodating, you definitely won't be able to catch up, just your two little thin legs, you can run through the four legs of that livestock" waved his hand impatiently and asked Mu Wanqiu to put the money away, "...... If you don't believe me, go up to the city and look, and it's strange if you can catch up. ”

After a little hesitation, Mu Wanqiu picked up the wooden suitcase and ran towards the city.

Outside the city gate, on the vast snow, the carriage had already turned into a small black spot.

Leaning weakly against the city wall, Mu Wanqiu pressed her hands to her chest and panted, "If he comes early, I'll go to the door of Yao Ji and block it......" The slender body trembled in the raging west wind.

Relying on the memory of her previous life, she was originally able to predict some future events, but unfortunately, she never left the great cause in her previous life, and the Li Jun and Shuoyang City in her memory are vague, about them, only those major events that alarmed one party and were repaired by the government and reported to the imperial court, she has a little memory.

“…… A character like him may not be remembered at all. Shaking her head, Mu Wanqiu comforted herself, she stood firmly at the head of the city, until the vast snow and the small black dot disappeared, then she picked up the suitcase, raised her heavy legs, and walked down the high city step by step.

……

The weather is frozen, and the clothes that are dried outside in the morning have been frozen into a board in just a few hours.

Mu Wanqiu took a feather duster while sweeping the snow on her clothes, while gently tapping the hard board and moving left and right, trying to take it off, when she saw the lock probing her brain at the gate, her heart moved, and she raised her eyes to look at the main room.

The door to the main room was tightly closed.

Putting down the feather duster, Mu Wanqiu turned around and walked towards the door.

“…… You've finally seen me. The lock looked at her and grinned.

“…… Affair? Mu Wanqiu took the lock to the door and closed the door with her hand.

"My father asked me to call you......" Lockman stuck out his little tongue and whispered, "He told the owner about the cut, let you try it." ”

"Really?" Mu Wanqiu's eyes lit up.

"Hmm......" Locks nodded vigorously, "the owner told me to go now." ”

……

“…… This sandalwood slice should be cut evenly, the size is appropriate, and I will look at it well, so I will cut it according to the size of the piece in my hand. Master Sun's eldest apprentice, Zhao Baojun, personally supervised the work, and he took a thin piece of sandalwood in his hand for everyone to see.

There were also people who came to try it out with Mu Wanqiu, all staring at the sandalwood pieces in Zhao Baojun's hand with bulging eyes, handing them to everyone, letting everyone look at them one by one, and before anyone could see clearly, Zhao Baojun put away the sandalwood chips, turned around and ordered, "...... Preparation. ”

After a while, the little maid conveniently prepared ten identical sandalwood, cutting boards, knives and other utensils.

Glancing at the ten people who were gearing up, Zhao Baojun shouted violently, "...... Do it. ”

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, except for Mu Wanqiu, no one else raised their eyes, picked up the knife and lowered their heads to cut it.

Mu Wanqiu's ears were buzzing with the swishing knife wind.

Her head was a little drowsy, and she only glanced at it, but she didn't see the size and thickness of the sample in Zhao Baojun's hand at all.

Four out of ten, competing with such a group of skilled knife workers, does she still have a chance?

I wanted to give up the competition and turn around and leave, thinking of her current predicament, Mu Wanqiu's heart was pinched, this opportunity was not easy to come by, and she was defeated without a fight, I am afraid that even Li Laohan looks down on her.

After struggling for a long time, Mu Wanqiu gritted her teeth fiercely, "No matter what, I have to try, these are all genuine sandalwood, so I should practice my hands......"

Giving up the heart of contention, Mu Wanqiu calmed down, silently remembered Wei's technique in her heart, she picked up the knife unhurriedly, and calmly dropped the knife under Zhao Baojun's cold gaze.

She didn't know Sun Kuaishou's technique, and she didn't see the sample in Zhao Baojun's hand clearly, Mu Wanqiu simply gave up Zhao Baojun's request and cut it up wholeheartedly according to Wei's technique.

It was later than others, and she cut it slowly, less than a third of the cut, someone had already put the knife away, shouting for Zhao Baojun to test.

Her heart trembled, Mu Wanqiu's hand froze, hesitating whether to put down the knife too, only for a moment, she cut it calmly again, gradually, everyone took the knife, she cut just one-third, her forehead was oozing with beads of sweat, she gritted her teeth, tried her best not to look at other people, only cut with heart and mind.

After inspecting the sandalwood slices cut by everyone one by one, Zhao Baojun came to Mu Wanqiu, with a touch of contempt in his eyes, and just wanted to open his mouth to ask her not to cut it, his eyes fell on the small half pile of sandalwood slices, and he was stunned, slowly, his eyes widened, and he grabbed a handful with trembling hands and sent it to the present.

The cut surface is smooth, uniform in size, as thin as fine paper, and although it is different from the sample he held, it is a good knife work, and his sample is rough in comparison.

This little girl used a peerless technique

He had only heard this technique from his master but had never seen it

“…… You don't have to cut it," the hot voice trembled slightly.

Mu Wanqiu's hands trembled, blood flowed out of her fingers, Zhao Baojun snatched the knife from her hand, picked up her injured finger, and turned around and shouted, "Quick, knife wound medicine"

After being stunned for a moment, Mu Wanqiu hurriedly pulled out her fingers, turned her back to her back, and shook her head vigorously, "It's okay, it's just a little bit ......."

It was already cut slowly, but this cut into the hand again, she was so clumsy, I was afraid that it was really hopeless, and in the face of the contemptuous gazes of the other people standing behind Zhao Baojun, Mu Wanqiu's heart was completely desperate.

There stood with his back stiff.

Cutting ingredients to the hand is a common thing, the Li family has already prepared the knife wound medicine, and can't help but say, Zhao Baojun dragged her hand hard, and the medicine was neatly applied in three or two clicks.

“…… Who taught you this? Letting go of her hand, Zhao Baojun grabbed the sandalwood slices on the board and put them under his eyes to take a closer look.

“…… I remember my dad cut it like that. Mu Wanqiu had already thought of her words.

“…… Your dad? Zhao Baojun was stunned, "Who is your father?" ”

“…… It's my father" Mu Wanqiu opened a pair of ethereal and innocent eyes, as if Zhao Baojun asked too much.

“…… Where is he? Zhao Baojun was a little helpless about this little girl's stubbornness, and he asked instead.

"He ......" Mu Wanqiu pursed her lips, her ethereal eyes instantly covered with a layer of mist, "I ...... a few months ago Just ......" she suddenly amplified her voice, "I cut slowly, I can sleep less, promise not to delay your work, you can also only calculate the salary according to the amount I cut......" and muttered, "My mother is sick, I really need money......"

In any case, she had to fight for it, and seeing that Zhao Baojun seemed to be very interested in her methods, Mu Wanqiu sang a bitter love drama again.

"Ten catties and one penny...... surprised everyone, Zhao Baojun nodded, "Are you willing to do it without skipping words."

"Ten...... Ten ......" The sudden good news made Mu Wanqiu have no time to think, her lips squirmed for a long time before she came back to her senses and nodded fiercely, "I do"

“…… It's so unfair here," someone behind Zhao Baojun shouted, "She cut slowly and cut her hands, such a stupid person, you actually want her"

"I know her, she is a handyman in Lin Kee, and she is a well-known stubborn ...... on this street"

"I know her too, and I heard that I can't even argue with the fragrance, and I don't even know the spices......"

"It's just that if we knew this was the case, we might as well not come"

“…… Did Master Zhao see that she looked a little good-looking, and he looked at her? ”

"I think it's almost the same, Lin Ji's Master Liu said that she was as stupid as a cow, and Lin Ji also took pity on her and reluctantly asked for ......"

“……”

Seeing that Zhao Baojun didn't say a word, he accepted Mu Wanqiu, who was the slowest cut by ten people, and these people immediately blew up the pot, and in front of her, everyone ridiculed sharply at what you said and what I said.

Mu Wanqiu's face turned from flushed to pale, she pursed her lips tightly, and looked at Zhao Baojun fixedly, for fear that he would regret his words.

She didn't care about people's cynicism, she wanted this opportunity to get her hands on precious spices

"She's just jerky, and she's only cutting slowly, and when she cuts it in the future, she will be as fast as you, or even faster than you" Turning around slowly, Zhao Baojun looked at everyone coldly, and he didn't speak until everyone shut up.

“…… You are not a disciple, you are going to work for a short time, so you should naturally choose a skilled and fast hand" Someone in the crowd retorted.

"That is, your master is the famous Sun Kuaishou in Shuoyang, one person can do the work of four people, and when you come here, you will become Zhao Slowhand" Feeling hopeless, some people actually ridiculed Zhao Baojun, "The slower the cut, the better......"

“…… Shut up" Zhao Baojun's forehead was bruised, he shouted violently, everyone trembled, and the hall instantly fell silent.

“…… The knife is only a specialty of my master, in terms of technique, the master's lifelong pursuit is a "good" word" Zhao Baojun's sonorous voice was loud, and he threw the sandalwood slices in his hand to everyone, "Let's see, who of you can cut out such sandalwood slices, not to mention that it is as slow as the white girl, even if it is twice as slow as her, I will also accept it" Wei Yi paused, "My master is here today, and it will be like ......this" After speaking, he turned around suddenly, "Come on"

"Master Zhao......" The two little guys stepped forward in response.

"Prepare the materials again, let them try one by one" Zhao Baojun pointed to everyone.

The little guy answered yes, turned around and walked out.

"This ...... This ......" looked at the sandalwood slices in their hands, and everyone's eyes widened unconsciously, "Is this cut out by people?"

Indeed, these sandalwood chips were cut out by them as they watched this black and thin little girl cut them out one by one

"Master Zhao has a unique vision, we have taken ......" Watching the little guys prepare the ingredients again, and then looking at the sandalwood slices in their hands that are as smooth and thin as fine paper, how dare everyone practice.

Someone has consciously pushed the door out.

Looking at the speechless crowd, Zhao Baojun smiled coldly.

Yes By].
