Others may not know, but the shopkeeper definitely knows it.

In these days, it is better to spend so much money to buy a big knife, than to buy a gun directly. In this way, neither the housekeepers, nor the darts or bandits will need so many broadswords, and the only thing that has a large demand for this can only be the army: some armies are not fully equipped, so they use broadswords and spears instead, and the army will often engage in white-knuckle warfare.

However, there are only two armies around: the little devil and the Eighth Route Army Assault Regiment.

Needless to say, the little devils are well armed and don't know how to use broadswords at all. Therefore, it can only be the people of the assault regiment who can order so many big knives.

Only after experiencing it, do you know how precious it is!

Compared with the area controlled by the assault regiment now, the people of Baoyuan County hate the little devil much more: if nothing else, let's just say that the little devil was driven away by the assault group before he had time to harm Sanqiao County and other three counties. However, the little devil has now arrested women as comfort women in Baoyuan County. Comparing the two, you can know what kind of life the people of Baoyuan County are living now.

It is precisely because of this that when Shopkeeper Zhang faintly guessed in his heart that these three people should be members of the assault group, he became excited. I thought to myself, since it is the need of heroes who fight devils, it is necessary to meet the needs of fryers and iron.

I don't know if he was too excited, after he looked out twice, he looked at Zhang Qingshan with bright eyes, and suddenly stretched out his right hand, his thumb and middle finger were open, but his index finger was bent and raised a little, and he asked in a low voice: "I don't know how many heroes are this?"

The three of them looked at him with his right hand gesture in unison, and Zhou Baoyu couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean?"

The shopkeeper Zhang smiled, a little embarrassed in his smile, and a little more vigilant, but he retracted his right hand and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing!"

"How many of you have a license to buy a broadsword?"

Do you still need a license?

Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but glance at Zhou Baoyu, and saw that Zhou Baoyu shook his head slightly, he estimated that this must be some control measures specially made by the little devil in order to control the weapon and plunder China's iron.

"I forgot to bring it. Zhang Qingshan opened his mouth to lie, but then said: "However, we want such a large amount, I believe that you must have a way to solve this small problem, right?"

Also, these days, if you really have to follow the rules, you will definitely not be able to make a fortune. As far as the blacksmith industry is concerned, if he only knows how to make living utensils and not use some weapons, I am afraid that he would have starved to death a long time ago, and how can he have the inheritance of this century-old shop?

Therefore, Zhang Qingshan is very confident in this.

Unbeknownst to him, the shopkeeper Zhang shook his head and said: "I'm sorry for a few, our store has always been law-abiding." If a few people don't have the license issued by Taijun, the small shop can only be helpless and unable to do anything. ”

At this moment, Zhang Qingshan and the three of them were very surprised: Looking at your impatient attitude of rushing people, are you really so timid? It's really strange, how long has your store been open?

But before a few people could speak, Shopkeeper Zhang hugged Zhang Qingshan, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "A few people are good." Please!"

There was nothing to say, just to leave.

After coming out, Zhang Qingshan said with some depression in his heart: "Lao Tzu still doesn't believe it, I can't buy something with money, let's go! ”

"Guys, please stay. ”

Before the three of them walked twenty meters away, they heard someone shouting behind them.

Zhang Qingshan turned around and saw that it was a young man dressed ordinarily and fairly clean, walking with a smile.

"Dare to ask a few bosses, but you need a lot of iron tools?"

"Don't!"

Zhang Qingshan turned around and left.

The young man hurried up, and said in a whisper and eagerness, "Don't be in a hurry to go! I can meet your request." ”

Zhang Qingshan turned around and asked directly, "Do you know what we need?"

"Roughly guessed the point. ”

The corners of Zhang Qingshan's mouth curled slightly, and he said, "Hurry up." ”

Maybe it was because he saw that Zhang Qingshan was very vigilant and asked so directly, the young man didn't go around the bend, and whispered directly: "You need two hundred big knives, I have them, and the quality is absolutely reliable." However, you need more, and you need more time to prepare. ”

Zhang Qingshan glanced at the blacksmith shop that had just come out not far away, then looked at the young man with a smile and asked, "What is your relationship with that blacksmith shop?"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it depends on what you say in front of whom. ”

Outsiders may not know what he means, but Zhang Qingshan has traveled from south to north, and as soon as he heard what he said, he immediately understood.

This young man told Zhang Qingshan almost very clearly: I am the person from the blacksmith shop, otherwise, it would not be possible for you to catch up with you as soon as you leave the gate to talk about the deal, and I even know the first order of 200 big knives you talked about and the specific number - this is the key point to show your origin. It's just that the blacksmith shop does serious business, and I do some shady business for the blacksmith shop.

To put it more bluntly: Zhang Qingshan and others wanted a large amount, and of course the blacksmith shop hoped to make this deal, but because it was not clear about the origin of Zhang Qingshan and others, in order to prevent it from being set up by others, the blacksmith shop refused in person. However, there were people in the blacksmith shop who specialized in this, so when Zhang Qingshan and the others came out of the blacksmith shop, this young man showed up to discuss business.

In this way, even if Zhang Qingshan and others came to set up a bureau and deliberately frame or suppress the blacksmith shop, then even if this young man is caught, it has nothing to do with the blacksmith shop, and the blacksmith shop can be completely wiped out. But if you really come to talk about business, then whoever comes forward is the same, the key is that one party has a big knife and the other party has money. The best thing is that everyone doesn't ask where they came from, and they do this business smoothly. With integrity, everyone will be relieved to cooperate next time.

To put it bluntly, for the blacksmith shop, it is a very safe procedure. Of course, this kind of procedure also requires strength behind it, and not everyone has this ability.

"Interesting. After Zhang Qingshan said with a smile, he saw the young man nodding with a smile, and he said, "There are many people here, I don't know, is there any quiet place?"

Zhang Qingshan's words are also a kind of demonstration: Don't look at me as not your local, but I am a raptor crossing the river, and I am not afraid that you, a local, will dare to play tricks with me, so I will give you the place to choose the place of conversation, and I am not afraid of your deception. Of course, this is also a way and technique of negotiation, which oppresses people before the negotiation, but retains a little face-saving harmony.

"I know that there is a restaurant with very good signature dishes, and I invite a few people to appreciate it, so that my younger brother can have a chance to make friends. ”

Hey, the one who can come out and do this is really bold and bright-mouthed.

So, the four of them went directly to the largest restaurant in the center of the street and asked for a private room by the window on the second floor. And this young man named Zhang Deguang is really good at talking, just for the past twenty or so minutes, he is talking alone, and there is no repetition. It's just that Zhang Qingshan keenly noticed that every time this guy finished telling some local anecdotes, he would secretly observe the faces and reactions of the three of them.

This made Zhang Qingshan laugh a little in his heart: Don't you just want to determine whether we often carry out activities in Matou Town from whether we have heard these anecdotes? I will also tell you that Lao Tzu is the first time to come to Matou Town, but not to mention that you are a small subway craftsman shop, it is your town mayor Chen Changhe, I am still determined.

Waiting for the time when the wine and food came up, Zhou Baoyu suddenly asked Zhang Deguang: "Brother, I don't usually go out much, I don't have much knowledge, you are well-informed...... What does this gesture mean?"

Zhang Deguang can do this business, and he needs to be bold and ruthless—not only to others, but also to himself, because when necessary, he has to use his life to keep the blacksmith shop. No, he glanced at the gesture made by Zhou Baoyu that the shopkeeper had made earlier, he first glanced at Zhou Baoyu in a little surprise, then smiled slightly, and whispered: "This is the name of the Eighth Route Army Assault Regiment." ”

"Is there anything else?" Not to mention Zhou Baoyu, even Zhang Qingshan was very surprised: When did everyone's name for the assault regiment be replaced by this gesture, and Lao Tzu, the head of the regiment, didn't know it? Therefore, Zhou Baoyu, who received Zhang Qingshan's eye signal, hurriedly asked: "Big brother, I'm very curious about this, can you please explain it? lest when I see each other again in the future, others will ask me, and I don't know yet." Explain, I'll brag in front of my friends in the future. ”

"It's very simple: the thumb and middle finger are divided, forming a figure-eight, which means the Eighth Route Army, the middle index finger is curved, but it looks protruding, which is the meaning of the assault regiment......" Speaking of this, he thought of something, after glancing at Zhang Qingshan and a few people, he smiled slightly, and said: "This Eighth Route Army assault regiment is all heroes, and even the little devils are afraid of them...... It's a pity I don't have a way, otherwise, I would really want to join them. ”

To say, in terms of wit, Zhou Baoyu will definitely not be worse than Zhang Deguang, but in terms of experience in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that Zhang Deguang can throw Zhou Baoyu eight streets. Zhang Deguang's words were obviously a temptation, but Zhou Baoyu was fooled as soon as he was excited.

"Tell me earlier! We are from the Eighth Route Army Assault Regiment. ”

"Really?"

"What are you lying to?" we ......" Zhou Baoyu said as he spoke, finally realizing that he had made a mistake, so he quickly shut up, and peeked at Zhang Qingshan in shame.

Zhang Qingshan saw that he had already been told by Zhou Baoyu, and it was too late for him to go back, so he had to smile and nod to Zhang Deguang who came over.

Zhang Deguang also stood up excitedly, hugged his fists at Zhang Qingshan and the three of them, and said: "The little brother has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, and he plays this little trick of carving insects in front of all the powerful people, please forgive me." ”

Zhang Qingshan took off his sunglasses, threw them on the table, and said with a smile: "It's okay, everyone knows each other for the first time, and there should be vigilance." ”

After speaking, he glared at Zhou Baoyu fiercely, and lowered his head in shame when he glared at Zhou Baoyu, who was just about to laugh.

At this time, the shopkeeper knocked on the door and served the food and drinks......
