Chapter 19 The Wei Clan, the Clan Recognizes Relatives
Wei Yan had wanted a knife for a long time.
After defecting to Liu Bei, his weapons have never been used, and the ring-headed knife in the army is either too light or too brittle for him, and it is not used at all.
In desperation, Wei Yan could only reluctantly make a jujube wood spear, which could be regarded as a comfort for himself.
Wei Shi has nothing to do with this.
The iron kiln he built was used for two purposes, one was weapons, and the other was agricultural tools.
Wei Yan asked for a knife, it was nothing.
It should be an advertisement in Liu Beijun.
When the iron kiln officially increased its output, the weapons that were better than the Han Dynasty standard ring head knife could be made by Wei Shi.
With Wei Shi's permission, Wei Yan was so excited that he almost got up, and when Mi Zhu and Mi Zhen left, he deliberately asked the Mi brothers to tell Liu Bei that they would wait until they got a new knife before returning.
Mi Zhu looked at Wei Yan, who didn't look back, and felt a little estranged in his heart.
This trip to Weishi Village, the advantage is to get a more advanced loom, but also to see the development of the pedal spinning wheel weaving mill, and after going back, with the Mi family's financial resources, it is possible to build a larger workshop than Yushuwan to achieve large-scale operation.
The bad thing is that Wei Shi changed his mind again and started a brick kiln and an iron kiln.
The bricks of the brick kiln are the urgent needs of Xinye to strengthen the city defense.
If the weapons of the iron kiln can really be refined, then Liu Beijun can buy them and realize the upgrading of the weapons, which is much stronger than begging Liu Biao for charity.
Thinking of this, Mi Zhu fell in love with Wei Shi again.
"Big brother, you are in front of the emperor's uncle, but don't mention Wei Shi's breach of his oath for the sake of the villagers?" Mi Zhen saw Mi Zhu's thoughts, and persuaded him on the way back.
"Why is that?" Mi Zhu asked puzzled.
Mi Zhen shook her head and said: "Wei Shi is not simple, if he is forced to be anxious, I am afraid that he will not receive the love of the emperor's uncle, and the little sister thinks that he is a person, it is okay to be a friend, and if he is a subordinate, I am afraid that there will be a change." ”
Wei Shi is impregnated with the concept of equality in later generations, although he is only a commoner, but when he interacts with Mi Zhen and others, he is neither humble nor cowardly, such a person, Liu Bei may not be able to persuade him.
"What the little sister said is right, this time I went to Wei Shi, Wei Yan stayed, and Song Yuniang also stayed, I don't know what is attractive about this Wei Shi, one or two ran to his village and didn't leave."
Mi Zhu was angry for a while, and his tone was a little dissatisfied.
Song Yuniang stayed, he could understand, after all, Wei Shi and Han Qiuyun were kind to her.
But what does it mean that Wei Yan stayed?
Really just for a knife.
still has other ideas, Mi Zhu doesn't trust this Nanyang man who defected to Liu Bei for a short time.
Wei Shi sent away the Mi family brothers and sisters, and a stone fell to the ground.
In any case, this time the crisis has been resolved, and in the future, he can rely on the production of brick kilns and iron kilns to conduct normal transactions with Mi Zhu.
Compared with Cai's forcible seizure, the emperor's uncle Liu Bei wants to lose face and win the favor of the people of Jingzhou, at least during the Xinye period, the possibility of turning his face is relatively small.
What made Wei Shi even happier was that Huang Xu, the guy, finally appeared slowly.
Although he was a few days late and his face was extremely bad, at least he came.
Without the squeeze of women, Huang Xu's body should be able to recover as long as he takes good care of it, and Wei Shi has prepared a daily exercise package for him, so that Huang Xu can enjoy it.
The next half month is the time when Elm Bay Village is in full swing.
At least in the eyes of Wei Yan and Huang Xu.
The steaming brick kilns, the red-hot iron juice, and the shouts of the men in the village all make the village look vibrant.
With the addition of high temperature, the difficulty of iron juice exercise is greatly reduced, which is like a marathon long-distance running, past the point of physical limit, and the rest is a matter of course.
After Wei Shi demonstrated it once, he handed over the work of strength to Wang Lao Liu, and this act of trust made Wang Lao Liu almost knelt down with emotion.
Iron striking is a door technique.
In the Han Dynasty, it was a family tradition, and no foreign surnames were passed on.
Wei Shi's unreserved professor now, for Wang Laoliu, is to teach his teacher and regenerate his parents.
In order to express their gratitude, Father Wang and Mrs. Wang took Wang Lao Liu, the sixth sister-in-law, as well as the eldest lang, second lang, third lang, and Shilang in the family, to come to the Wei family with a brush, and they had to kowtow to Wei Shi and Han Qiuyun.
Erlang and San Lang also took the initiative to change their surnames to Wei, according to Wang Laoliu, these two cubs are Wei Shi's righteous sons, thinking that how to beat and scold has nothing to do with his Wang family.
Only when the family is big can the industry be big.
If there are more people, you will not be bullied.
Wang Lao Liu sent his two sons to the Wei family, the purpose is not only to consolidate the relationship, but also to strengthen the door for the Wei family.
The two boys didn't have a problem with that.
The Wei family's family background is much stronger than that of the Wang family, and Wei Shi and Han Qiuyun treat their husbands and wives amiably and do not treat their families well, which can be known from Wei Xiao'e's current life.
Wei Shi tried his best to persuade him, but he still couldn't resist the Wang family, so he could only accept it.
After thinking for a while, Wei Shi gave Erlang and San Lang a word each, Erlang is called Wei Cheng, and Sanlang is called Wei Gong.
With the addition of the Wang family's father and son, the speed of iron kiln striking has suddenly increased.
Wang Lao Liu was shirtless, kept pulling the semi-soft iron out of the blast furnace, and then together with Wang Lao Liu, grabbed the hammer and kept beating, and after a night of continuous exercise, a long knife with a hundred refinements finally took shape.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The long red knife was dragged into the cold water by Wei Shi, and only the sound of sizzling could be heard in the water, and a quarter of an hour passed, Wei Yan stretched his neck, and he couldn't wait to grab the long knife.
"Don't touch it yet, it's still hot." Wei Shi saw that Wei Yan wanted to pick up the long knife, so he hurriedly reminded him.
Although it has been quenched and cooled, the temperature on the long knife has not completely dropped, and if you touch it, you may be burned off a layer of skin if you stick to it.
An hour later, the long knife, which had finally cooled down, was fished out of the water, and its whole body was dark and shining.
The first time Wei Yan saw it, he liked it, clasped his hands tightly, and couldn't put it down.
"Good knives! Thanks bro. ”
Wei Yanqu flicked his fingers on the blade, and the long knife made a crisp sound, and the aftersound echoed, and it stopped after a few breaths.
"It's just a trivial matter, and the chief doesn't have to care about it." Wei Shi smiled and waved his hand at Wei Yan.
A knife, a good impression of Wei Yan, is worth it.
These days, Wei Yan told him a lot of things about the Wei clan in Nanyang, according to his statement, the main branch of the Wei clan, now Yiyang Township in Nanyang County, is not far from Xinye.
Wei Shi's father, Wei Blacksmith, should also be a member of the Wei clan in Nanyang, but he was separated later.
Wei Shi did not have any objection to Wei Yan's statement.
In these days, it is better to have a clan to rely on than no clan at all.
Although the Wei clan has declined, in the area of Nanyang County, the Wei clan is scattered and countless, and such a potential force is an important arm for Wei Shi to gain a foothold in Nanyang.
