Chapter 20: Backsliding

Linjiang, blacksmith shop.

The clanging of iron was gone, and only a few cicadas chirped in the distance.

At this time in Linjiang, the weather is too hot.

Waves of heat hit everyone's chests, rushed to their throats, and rose into the air as smoke.

Zhao Rui and Liu Dabiao stood north and south, confronting each other.

Liu Dabiao is the blacksmith master of this blacksmith shop, and he is also the most experienced and experienced person.

The rest of them were all his apprentices.

At this time, he put down the hammer in his hand, and with a scar on his face, he stared at Zhao Rui viciously.

Liu Dabiao looked at Zhao Rui like this, without saying a word.

At this time, Kang An, who was standing next to Zhao Rui, pressed against Zhao Rui's cheek and whispered in a deep voice.

"Brother Zhao, I followed your arrangement this morning, I originally came here to get those buckles, but their group of people, after hearing about it, didn't give the goods at all, I wanted to reason with them, but they tied me up."

Kang An's words were not loud, but the blacksmith shop was extremely silent now, and Liu Dabiao and his party standing not far away could also hear it clearly.

Zhao Rui knew that they had all heard it, so he just raised his emotionless eyes and said.

"Liu Dabiao, we signed an agreement before, and you promised it well at the time, but now you do such a backsliding thing?"

It turned out that before, when Zhao Rui made underwear buckles for the first time.

Because of the quantity problem, Liu Dabiao was reluctant to call him, but Zhao Rui took out a large pile of silver tickets, so he reluctantly made one.

This kind of cheapness, Liu Dabiao still takes advantage of it with peace of mind.

Later, because of Jiang Danxue's support, Zhao Rui decided to mass-produce modern underwear, and the number of buckles needed also increased.

also reached an agreement with Liu Dabiao.

Every once in a while, he comes to get a batch of buckles, and the money will naturally not be missing him.

At this time, Liu Dabiao didn't know whether he was at fault or for some reason, so he finally spoke.

"Zhao Rui, it was before, and now...... I'm sorry, but I do regret it, not only did I not provide you with goods today, but I won't in the future. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Rui frowned.

Liu Dabiao said this, which means that the production of buckles will be out of stock in the future, and the new underwear will also be out of stock.

This is even more serious than the last incident of stopping elves, and the lack of raw materials cannot be solved with money.

What's more, in Linjiang County, this is the only blacksmith shop, you know, the training cost of a blacksmith is very high, even if Zhao Rui can find a blacksmith.

With such a large amount of production, one person can't bear it at all.

Zhao Rui stabilized his mind and asked, "Liu Dabiao, I think there should be no contradiction between us, why should we suddenly tear up the agreement?" ”

Zhao Rui wanted to ask clearly, there must be something hidden in this.

But obviously, Liu Dabiao didn't show any signs of explanation, he just waved his hand impatiently, like chasing flies, and said.

"Don't ask anymore, I can give you today's batch of buckles, but in the future, our blacksmith shop will not welcome you free-roamers!"

Hearing that Liu Dabiao gave an eviction order, Zhao Rui was a little unhappy.

But he still held back the anger in his heart and said coldly, "Liu Dabiao, I don't know why you violated the agreement, but I think you should be very clear about the consequences of violating the agreement, and I hope you can be so arrogant in the future." ”

After that, Zhao Rui didn't want to stay here for a moment, so he turned his head with Kang An and left the blacksmith shop.

"Brother Zhao, what should we do now?" Kang An was a little uneasy.

He was only the first day to be this guy, and this kind of thing happened, and he cautiously observed Zhao Rui's face.

But at this time, Zhao Rui did not show any signs on his face.

Because now, he's thinking about what to do next.

Hearing Kang An's words, Zhao Rui just smiled faintly, "Don't worry, it's not your fault that this matter is not your fault, I didn't expect this Liu Dabiao to be such a person." ”

Regarding Liu Dabiao's reversal, Zhao Rui was also helpless.

But it's not surprising that in business, everything is so unpredictable that you don't know what's going to happen in the next moment.

It's just that......

Zhao Rui was still a little puzzled, he couldn't make sense, Liu Dabiao had no reason to violate the agreement at all.

You must know that Liu Dabiao forged every buckle and got a huge profit, which was simply a pie-in-the-sky deal for him.

Zhao Rui looked at Kang An's face very badly, but he still patiently comforted him, and then said.

"Let's go back to the store first, and we'll think about the rest of the day."

Zhao Rui believes that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.

As long as you keep hope, you will always find a silver lining.

Kang An nodded, everything that happened just now seemed like a dream to him.

During the time he was tied up, he thought about many results, and he died in the blacksmith shop like this, never to see his beloved in black silk again, and never to get silver taels again.

But, fortunately, he still waited for Zhao Rui's arrival.

In this way, the two returned to the free house.

Zhao Rui took out the painting painted by Wu Daozhi from the store, found some paste, and pasted the painting on the outer wall of the store.

"Yes, yes, with this promotional poster, business must be booming." Zhao Rui took two steps back, carefully looked at the words on the wall, and smiled with satisfaction.

"But ......" Zhao Ruimo rubbed his chin, always feeling that something was missing.

Suddenly.

Zhao Rui patted his head and said excitedly, "You have to have some advertising words!"

It's just that it's okay to do some needlework yourself, and if you write, you can only barely read.

Zhao Rui thought, isn't there a scholar in the house! With a smile on his face again, he walked quickly into the store and came to Kang'an's side.

"Kang'an!" Zhao Rui called.

Kang An originally had his back to Zhao Rui, but when he heard the movement, he quickly turned around and looked at Zhao Rui with puzzlement.

Zhao Rui smiled mysteriously and said, "Help me write some words!"

As he spoke, Zhao Rui said the advertising words that had been prepared a long time ago, "Just write, live freely, a man's paradise, a woman's paradise!" Our store is a big reward, buy two get one free, buy three get two free!"

"Huh?" Kang An's eyes were glazed, and he stumbled a little, "Are you sure, are you writing these?" ”

Zhao Rui nodded, "You can write it, write it better!"

Kang An could only obey, he rolled up his sleeve robe, picked up the pen next to him, and wrote on a blank piece of paper.

Soon.

The advertising words were written, Zhao Rui found a small wooden board, glued the written white paper, and then placed it under the Shi Niang poster.
