Two more days passed, and there was a rare good weather.

Liu Ming stretched and opened the door of the restaurant.

"Shopkeeper, we're back."

Outside, three black men stood in a row, and the leader grinned, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth.

Liu Ming rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief, "Ruan Da Ruan Two, Ruan San?"

Ruan Da nodded, and jumped up to hug him.

Liu Ming hurriedly blocked him, and said with a look of disgust: "You guys go and roll in the mud pit, it's so dirty? Go wash up!"

Half an hour later, the three brothers, who had been cleaned, came to the door of the blacksmith's shop.

Liu Ming and Peng Yuanguan, who had been waiting early, pushed open the door of the blacksmith shop at the same time.

I saw that the inside was spotless, but all the tools had not moved their positions.

"It's cleaned every day, just waiting for you to come back."

Hearing Liu Ming's words, Ruan Dadeng's eyes turned red.

After the three brothers left Wuyang, no one was so kind to them.

He rubbed his eyes and said, "Shopkeeper, this time I am sure of victory."

After that, he handed the burden to Liu Ming: "Open it and take a look?"

Liu Minghu suspiciously ripped open the package, only to see a few pieces of black iron ore inside.

"What the hell? It's not as good as the iron ore I gave you."

With that, Liu Ming walked into the blacksmith shop with the package, and poured out the iron ore in the package, comparing it with the remnants of the iron ore in the blacksmith shop.

"Look, old friend, isn't our iron ore more beautiful?"

Peng Yuanguan poked his head over, looked at it carefully, pinched his chin and said, "This thing is a bit ugly, it looks like a toad skin."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ruan San suddenly twist the hammer and walk towards him viciously.

"The third child! Calm down! Calm down!"

Peng Yuanguan waved his hand and retreated.

Ruan San is tenacious, if he is angry, he will really smash it down with a hammer.

However, Ruan San still had an angry face, and when he walked in front of Peng Yuanguan, he raised the hammer high: "Hey!"

"Ahh

Peng Yuanguan held his head in his hands and closed his eyes.

After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "It doesn't hurt?"

At this time, he saw Ruan San and smiled: "Scared you, shopkeeper."

Ruan San, even joking?

Peng Yuanguan looked confused, and watched him smash the iron ore they brought back.

I only heard a bang, and the shell of iron ore actually cracked.

What no one expected was that this piece of iron ore, which looked like the skin of a toad, was knocked open, and inside it was a piece of thumb-sized, crimson metal rough!

"High-grade red gold, didn't expect it?"

Ruan Da looked proud.

"Wow......" Peng Yuanguan immediately envied, "I heard that this thing is worth a lot of money, so you set off with two pieces of silver, where did you buy it?"

"I didn't buy it, I got it back." Ruan laughed.

It turned out that after they left Liu Ji, they went directly to Nancheng.

The east city is the easternmost part of Mushan, and the south city is the westernmost part, and there are three big cities in between.

Between the two big cities, it is basically about 300 miles.

The three of them continued to ride day and night, and it took them ten days to get to Nancheng.

Nancheng is the mining city of Mushan.

Different from the bitter kiln mining in Xicheng, the mineral deposits in Nancheng are not only rich in variety, but also high in quality.

After arriving in Nancheng, the three brothers' original plan was to find a good mine in the ore market in order to cope with the covenant with Liang Shouxin.

However, on the day they arrived, the bazaar was closed.

So I found an inn at random and stayed.

After putting the salute, Ruan San shouted that he wanted to gamble.

He has the habit of gambling, but the bet is very small, and the daily bet is a few big coins, purely to enjoy the joy of shaking the dice and pushing pai gow

Interesting.

Ruan Da and Ruan Er couldn't do anything about it, so they could only accompany him and find a gambling house to play at random.

After playing for a while, Ruan Da noticed a person.

The man was an old man, with a gray beard and short hair, as if he had just been shaved.

There are only two types of people who shave their hair.

The first is the monk who cut off the three thousand troubles and escaped into the empty door.

The second is the bitter kiln laborers exiled in Xicheng.

This old man has a yellow face and thin muscles, and at first glance he is the laborer of the bitter kiln.

He lost and lost, and he was in a hurry to lose, so he found a lender in the field to borrow money.

But the lender didn't know him at all, so naturally it was impossible to lend him money.

So he got up, took off his bracelet, held it high, and shouted, "Who wants my bracelet?" One hundred taels!"

The bracelet was dull and lacklustre, with no pearl scent at all.

Someone stood up and sprayed him: "Old fellow, get out if you don't have any money, and you want to exchange a broken bracelet for silver?" Get out!"

"That's it, get out! Don't delay your uncle from winning!"

"!"

This kind of thing happens every few days in the gambling house.

After the gamblers scolded a few words, no one paid attention to him.

However, Ruan Da saw it at a glance.

This bracelet is polished from an excellent quality jadeite rough.

It's just that for some reason, the old man has completely polished the surface, and it looks rough and tight.

He hurriedly walked over and said, "Uncle, I want this bracelet."

After that, he really untied his burden, took out ten ingots of silver and handed them to the old man.

In the midst of a *** insult, he put away the bracelet beautifully.

Immediately took the two brothers back to the inn and closed the door.

He handed the bracelet directly to Ruan Er.

For blacksmiths, polishing is the basic skill, although Ruan Er is a little cowardly, but he is delicate and patient, and the work of polishing has always been for him.

When the bracelet arrived in his hand, he took a closer look at it, and said happily, "Good thing, big brother, at least it's an ice seed, let me grind it out and take a look."

Polishing the bracelet is a delicate job, and there is no rush at all.

It wasn't until the evening that the bracelet was polished.

Ice species, with floating flowers.

Not to mention a hundred taels of silver, the condition of this bracelet was taken back to Dongcheng, to two silver.

Nguyen laughed and blossomed.

With this bracelet, when the market opens the day after tomorrow, he will have more capital and can exchange it for better iron ore.

At dawn the next day, Ruan San began to get bored again, shouting that he wanted to gamble for money.

The three of them came to the gambling house again.

Who knows, Ruan San only made a few bets, but before he became a banker, the old man came.

At this time, the old man held three hundred taels of silver and said that he would redeem the bracelet.

A bracelet is a natural thing, and it is another price after passing the hand.

Three hundred taels, of course Ruan Da didn't want to.

He was rejected at that time.

When the old man heard this, he didn't make any trouble, and turned around and left the gambling house.

Just when Ruan San had almost won enough money for a hundred dollars, the old man came back and brought with him a young man who looked extremely wealthy.

When the young man entered the door, the spectators immediately stood up and bowed their hands to him, "I've seen the Hu mine master!"

Hearing this name, Ruan's big eyes lit up.

No one expected that this old man would be the uncle of the owner of the Nancheng Hu mine.
