Chapter 51: A Unique Iron Shop
Xiao Fan came to Xiao Er's Ah Niu blacksmith shop, and unexpectedly found that this blacksmith shop looked dilapidated, just a random hut, the door was deserted, and no one came to buy weapons, not as Xiao Er said that the weapons here are the best in the city, and he couldn't help but wonder: "I shouldn't have been deceived by the little second brother." ”
Xiao Fan got closer, only to hear the sound of 'bumping' striking iron from inside, which made Xiao Fan, who was about to leave, a little curious, and hesitated for a while before deciding to go in and take a look.
After Xiao Fan walked in, he saw a middle-aged man who looked honest and honest and was concentrating on striking iron.
The middle-aged man looked strong, but he was honest, his head was bowed, and he was concentrating on building a long sword, and the iron furnace was in the middle of the shop, which did not look like a shop selling weapons at all, but an iron shop.
"Boss, I want to take a look at the weapon. Xiao Fan saw that the middle-aged man didn't seem to pay attention to his meaning, so he spoke.
"See for yourself, and wait until I've built this sword. The middle-aged man had been concentrating on striking the iron, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his head, obviously, in his eyes, the long sword he was building was more attractive than Xiao Fan.
As soon as Xiao Fan heard the tone of the middle-aged man, he immediately became interested in him, ordinary people who open stores and do business are all kind to customers, intending to make more money, but this boss is different, just burying his head in iron, and seems to ignore customers, there are only two possibilities, one is that the quality of his goods is very good, even if the boss has a bad temper, customers will still buy the things in his store;
This shop is not large, only a few dozen square meters, and the center is occupied by a middle-aged man for iron, and there are more than a dozen weapons hanging around it.
Strangely enough, all the weapons hanging in the shop were only knives and swords.
Xiao Fan picked up a sword and flicked it lightly, and was stunned to find that this sword looked ordinary, but it turned out to be made of dark iron.
"Good sword, good sword. Xiao Fan couldn't help but open his mouth in appreciation.
After looking at the first sword, Xiao Fan became interested in this shop, and then picked up another sword, this sword was dark throughout, three feet long, three fingers wide, and the sword had a cold aura on the body, invading the body.
"It's made of cold iron, and it's no less material than black iron. Xiao Fan admired again.
Xiao Fan picked up another sword, but this sword was red all over the body, extremely hot, Xiao Fan sighed: "It turned out to be written by red iron." ”
Next, Xiao Fan looked at all the other dozen swords and found that each sword was made of special materials, and the materials used in each sword were different.
"What do you like?" At this time, the middle-aged man came to Xiao Fan's side and asked.
"Hehe, the boss doesn't show his face, I admire it, I want six knives and six swords here. Xiao Fan said.
"Hahaha..."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he seemed to have heard something funny, and immediately burst out laughing.
"This boy must have never heard of the rules of my shop. ”
"Oh, there are rules?" Xiao Fan suddenly became interested: "I don't know what the rules are?"
The middle-aged man said: "Although the weapons in our store are sold, they are not valued in money, but in exchange for materials of the same value. ”
"Oh, there's such a rule. Xiao Fan was a little surprised, and then scolded in his heart: Damn the shopkeeper, he didn't tell me this rule, and he couldn't afford it now.
"Exactly, the rules of this store have been passed down for decades, and no one can break them, so if Childe doesn't have the materials, please take care of it. The middle-aged man said.
"Wait. Xiao Fan suddenly laughed, "I don't know what other rules your store has, please come along." ”
"There are no other rules. "Middle-aged man.
"In that case, please take a look at how many swords this Xuantie heavy sword can be exchanged for?" Xiao Fan smiled and took out the door-sized Xuantie heavy sword from the storage bag.
The middle-aged man took the Xuantie heavy sword, and the Xuantie heavy sword, which weighed thousands of catties, seemed to be nothing in his hand, which made Xiao Fan a little surprised, it seems that this middle-aged man's cultivation is extraordinary.
"What a big piece of black iron. The middle-aged man sighed, and then scolded angrily: "Which bastard is messing around, a good piece of dark iron has been made into such a big piece of iron, bastard!"
"Ahem..."Xiao Fan was a little embarrassed, the blacksmith really didn't want to build such a dark iron heavy sword at that time, and he was completely forced by Xiao Fan.
"Boss, haven't you said how many swords this Xuantie heavy sword can exchange for you?" Xiao Fan said.
"If you compare it in terms of quantity, this piece of dark iron is so big that it can be worth all the swords in my store, but I don't lack dark iron, so this piece of dark iron can only be exchanged for one sword and one sword, if the son is willing, change it, if you don't want to, forget it. The middle-aged man said.
"I said boss, you're a little unkind, you said it, such a big piece of black iron is enough to be worth more than a dozen swords in the store, but you only give me one sword and one sword, which is too little. Xiao Fan said.
The middle-aged man said: "Although I take advantage of this exchange, these weapons are all made by my painstaking efforts, if Childe doesn't change it, forget it, I won't force it." ”
"What, you're a scoundrel. Xiao Fan looked at the middle-aged man dumbfounded, seeing that this guy looked righteous and awe-inspiring, but he was playing a scoundrel at this time, Xiao Fan was really speechless.
"If you play a scoundrel, you will be a scoundrel, you love to change it. The middle-aged man gave him a blank look.
"Uh..." Xiao Fan was speechless, thought for a long time, and had to say: "Okay, even if I suffer a loss, but I only need a sword, can you help me make a few flying knives for the material of that knife? If you still don't agree, I won't buy it." ”
"Deal. The middle-aged man quickly agreed: "I'll exchange a sword and ten Xuantie flying knives for your piece of Xuantie." ”
"Good. ”
Xiao Fan nodded helplessly, only feeling a burst of grievance, such a large piece of dark iron, but only in exchange for a sword and ten flying knives, the number is less than one-tenth, it is simply a big loss.
However, Xiao Fan really didn't want to look for a master blacksmith anymore, so he would use it.
"You choose your own sword first, and I'll help you build a flying knife right away. The middle-aged man said.
"How long will it take?" Xiao Fan.
"Half a day is enough, there is still tea in it, you can go and make tea by yourself, or you can go outside first and come to me to get a flying knife after half a day." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he couldn't wait to take the Xuantie heavy sword to the edge of the iron furnace and start building.
There were a total of twelve weapons in this shop, divided into six swords and six knives, Xiao Fan picked up the six swords and picked them up, and finally chose a long sword made of cold iron that was dark throughout, three feet long, and two and a half fingers wide.
"Remember to make me a scabbard. Xiao Fan said in front of the middle-aged man.
"There are a lot of scabbards in the back, and you can choose which one you want. The middle-aged man didn't look at Xiao Fan, and was concentrating on striking iron.
"Okay. Xiao Fan was bored, touched his nose, picked out a scabbard at the back, and then left the iron shop, he didn't want to stay in it for half a day.
Xiao Fan held a cold iron sword in his left hand and a folding fan in his right hand, swaggering on the road.
Yangcheng is much more than Xuanshan City, and the city is also more lively, people come and go, Xuanshan City seems to be a small mountain village compared to it, and Yangcheng is the real city.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way..."
At this moment, a loud shout came in front of Xiao Fan, and a group of people in front of Xiao Fan turned on their backs, and all the originally dense pedestrians hurriedly ran away.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Fan asked, grabbing a middle-aged man who was fleeing in a panic.
"Run, Young Master Yang is here..."The middle-aged man hurriedly finished speaking and left in a panic.
"Who is this Young Master Yang? Could it be that he wants to go on a killing spree. Xiao Fan was a little puzzled, and when Xiao Fan was stunned, everyone around him had already hid on the side of the road.
"Knock knock..."
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves galloping came, and then a dozen tall horses were heard rushing quickly, without fear along the way, and all the places they passed were trampled.
"Look for death, get out of the way!" Seeing that Xiao Fan was still standing in the middle of the road, a young man in the lead scolded angrily, and the speed of progress did not slow down in the slightest, and he wanted to trample Xiao Fan over.
A smile tugged at the corner of Xiao Fan's mouth, and he wanted to make a move, but he stopped, muttering in his heart: "It's just a group of bullies, forget it, don't worry about them." While thinking about it, Xiao Fan's figure flashed to the side of the road.
"Hahaha, I thought you kid was some kind of hard stubble, it turned out to be a soft egg. ”
"Hahaha..."
A group of people rushed over, laughing unscrupulously.
Xiao Fan clenched the sword in his hand when he heard this, and wanted to make a move, but he stopped again, comforting himself: "Forget it, it's just a group of bandits and hooligans, and Young Master Ben doesn't want to meet them." ”
"As the saying goes, if a dog bites a person, should a person bite a dog and come back?"
Xiao Fan comforted himself by muttering to himself.
"Little brother, it's good that you flashed fast, otherwise you would have died. An old man next to him said to Xiao Fan.
"Old man, who is that group of people who passed by just now, why are you so arrogant?" Xiao Fan asked.
"They, they are a group of young masters in the city, especially the one who is the leader, named Yang Wei, is the first gentleman in the city, and they do bad things on weekdays. The old man said indignantly.
"Well, the first young master of Yangcheng. ”
Xiao Fan touched his nose, why is this name so familiar, I think back then, I Xiao Fan was also known as the first young master of Xuanshan City, cough cough, and this Yang Wei brother is really fateful.
However, this guy's name is really good, cough cough, Yang Wei, impotence...
As soon as he thought of this name, Xiao Fan wanted to laugh, he really admired Yang Wei's parents, they were able to come up with such a creative name, they were really a talent.
Then, Xiao Fan shook his head slightly, no longer thinking about this group of people, he would not stay in Yangcheng for a long time, and it was generally impossible to meet this group of people again.
No matter where you go, there will always be these gentlemen, Xiao Fan is not a hero, nor does he have any chivalrous heart, and he doesn't want to care about this kind of thing.
