A few people went out to the blacksmith together, and saw a rich boy about fifteen or sixteen years old, squatting down with a few boys to watch the blacksmith make iron. He said, "Master blacksmith, hurry, hurry, I found the shape of this knife from an ancient book." You've got to do it for me. ”

The blacksmith said with a sad face: "Shaojun, this is the fifth knife this month, alas, Yu Jun said that if he forges a knife for you again, he won't give me this shop." ”

The young man didn't care, ate the pastries handed by the servant next to him, and said, "Old lady, Ah Weng broke your shop, how can I break it?" ”

Liu Qing was a little unhappy, he was so domineering at a young age, and stepped forward and said: "Cousin, why do you treat the old man like this, life is not easy, why bother others?" ”

The young man who was called turned around: "Who are you?" Who's your cousin? Recognize the wrong person, big brother. At this time, the blacksmith's knife was also forged, and he saw that Liu Qing was followed by a few big men, who didn't look easy to mess with, so he hurriedly took the knife and ran out, and didn't forget to throw a big bag of money before leaving.

Liu Qing shook his head, took out the money and ordered the blacksmith to build a good sword, named "Longquan", Zhou Tai made a large long machete, also known as the "Huaxia Dragon Bird Knife" Chen Wu made a spear, called "Shenwei Lie Water Gun".

After paying the deposit in advance and choosing the style, Liu Qing chatted with the blacksmith.

"Old lady, I see that this house is broken, but the house is full of weapons, why is this?"

"You look carefully, my parents died when I was a child, my master raised me, taught me the way of casting, and for me, the beautiful concubines in the house are all things outside the body, only these cold iron tools are the things that are difficult to give up in my heart." The blacksmith said sincerely, touching the weapons beside him, as if he was touching his half-grown child.

"My husband is a wonderful person. I saw that the son who had just come was quite domineering, and I knew his family well, but I asked me to help say a few words. Seeing that this old man was a rare pure person in the world, Liu Qing said with the intention of helping.

"Hahaha. Zun has been here for a short time, but he is wrong to see the young man, I think he is a rare wonderful person in Shu County. The old man laughed.

"Oh?"

"Okay, what you have to do is to use the best weapons of the first class, you need to use good materials, and the appointment time is tight, so I will start." The blacksmith said with a serious expression, and after speaking, he turned on the stove and made a fire, and got up to look for materials.

After chatting for a long time, he almost missed something important, Liu Qing hurriedly went to Yangfu to visit Liu Qing, a native of Xiting.

The doorman took the name thorn, and after a while, someone took Liu Qing into the house. At a glance, it is said to be a government office, but it is just a courtyard surrounded by a few houses with a wall, only some bamboo is planted at will, the door is the most ordinary wooden door used by ordinary people, it should be too long to have a few pieces rotten on it, the path into the house is paved with loess, some clods of soil are not flattened and stepped on a little awkward, Mo said that it is better than the courtyard of my uncle's house, that is, even the courtyard renovated by Liu Qing in Anhui County is not as good, others do not say, no one knows that this is actually the mansion of a county guard. Only a plaque on the door of the main hall that reads "Honest and Honest" seems to tell the identity of the owner.

Liu Qingyuan just felt that Yang Xu acted fairly, rewarded and punished Xinming, and when he got along with him, he could always teach himself some truths about being a person or an official, and he was also a teacher and a friend, and now he saw his residence, and he admired it very much, and he knew that he had just become a county lieutenant and made some money by selling sugar, so he couldn't wait to re-elect a courtyard and renovate the ancestral hall. In addition to the most vicious people, where are there simple characters!

After entering the inner hall, I learned that Yang Xu was not at home at this time, and Yang Xu, the son of Yang Xu, came out to receive him, and said coldly: "Before my father left, there were people from Xiting Township who came here, and it should be you after counting the time, I left a letter for you here, so that you can go to Luoyang to find Yu Shi Kongjun." My father is very optimistic about you, but I am advised to respect you, it is easy to flatter, it is difficult to do poetry, and it is even more difficult to be an official. It's better to go back to Anhui County and be the county lieutenant, and you can still ...... with my father's appreciation."

After speaking, he put the letter on the table, as if he was afraid that it would be a waste of time to say more, and hurried into the room, and after a while there was a sound of reading in a low voice.

Liu Qing took the letter and went out of the door abruptly, bowed his head and walked a few steps, and suddenly ran back and walked outside the gate of Yangfu and shouted: "The three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman cannot win the ambition." ”

Chen Wu, who came along, said hatefully: "This guy is so rude! I don't think it's just a villager, so why bother the lord to go by himself, so that people can go to get the trust. Wait for me to burn this broken yard with a fire, and see how he is, reading, reading, reading his mother's books. ”

Liu Qingqi said: "How dare you! No matter how you say it, you are also the son of the sheep, you burned the house, where does the sheep live? Knowing that Liu Qing also had anger in his heart, and what he said at this time did not mean to reprimand, Chen Wu grinned.

Zhou Tai asked: "Lord, Tai really can't figure out why he is like this, Yang Gong and the Lord must celebrate every time they talk, it can be said that they are also teachers and friends, friends who forget the year, and have deep feelings, which ...... Why does this treat the lord like this? Zhou Tai was also indignant when he heard Yang Wu so rude outside the door, and when he said it again, he couldn't help but rush in with Chen Wu and beat him, but he didn't see Liu Qing make any moves, and he was the son of Yang Xu, so he immediately grabbed Chen Wu and waited outside the door.

Liu Qing also figured it out at the moment, and said with a smile: "I just figured it out." The Yang family has been a high-ranking family for generations, and a single letter from the Yang Gong can let me find Kong Wenju in Luoyang, what a family background this is! The sheep is the son of the sheep, and it is normal for the son of the family to pretend to be a gesture to us who are poor in the countryside, and secondly, the sheep is old, and he will take over the mantle of the sheep in the future, and it is not a good thing for him if I and the sheep go too close. ”
