Chapter 8 Sending People Under the Fence
The owner of the blacksmith gave Qin Chuan a firewood room in the backyard.
The firewood room was a mess, and there were all things in it, and the rosacea boss asked Qin Chuan to clean up by himself, first move out all the things inside, put them outside, and then clean up, and then he made a bed for Qin Chuan.
"Thank you, boss." Qin Chuan politely thanked him. But why don't you think the expression on this old man's face is not very buying?
Forget it, I now belong to the fence, I belong to the apprenticeship, isn't the master like that?
So Qin Chuan began to clean up the firewood room by himself and moved all the things inside.
I don't know if I don't clean it up, this one is terrible, some firewood, ironware and farm tools and other things are all dusty on it, and it is estimated that it has not been touched for at least a year.
Qin Chuan had to move these things out one by one and move them to another small room designated by the old man with rosacea.
After a lot of effort, it was finally all cleaned up, and there was nothing left in the firewood room, which was empty.
Moreover, Qin Chuan also went to fetch half a basin of water and splashed it in the firewood room to suppress the dust.
Only then did Rosacea prepare a bed for Qin Chuan, let Qin Chuan move over, and see how it was suitable and how to put it in the firewood room.
Anyway, he sleeps by himself, and he thinks it's appropriate, and this rosacea doesn't care.
The bed is also put away, tidied up, two quilts, a bed, a bed cover, although this Liangzhou belongs to the south, but the winter night, it is also very cold, but also to cover the quilt, otherwise people can freeze.
Finally has a place to stay, Qin Chuan has a place to stay for the time being, and he doesn't have to spend his own money, along the way, the silver given to him by his parents has also spent a small half, and he can't spend it indiscriminately, otherwise he can't do it when he is in a hurry to use it.
He entered the blacksmith shop in the rosacea and began to learn to make iron from his master.
When Qin Chuan didn't come, the rosacea struck the iron, and it was usually two people with his wife, one with the iron and the other with a hammer.
Now with such an apprentice as Qin Chuan, the rosacea wife can let go and no longer need her.
But the first few days were not enough, and he had to let his wife cut the iron, and he hammered the iron, and let Qin Chuan watch from the side to see how they beat the iron and clamped the iron.
Of course, it won't be so easy, just let Qin Chuan watch it on the side, how can there be such a cheap thing.
Qin Chuan can only watch it when he is allowed to see it, but when he is not allowed to watch it, Qin Chuan can't watch it.
This means that what rosacea asks Qin Chuan to do, Qin Chuan has to do, and there is no choice.
So naturally, all the heavy and dirty work in the shop and the more difficult work must be Qin Chuan's, and Qin Chuan will do all the rosacea.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be too cheap to take care of him and live with him every day.
Rosacea is nominally an apprentice, but in fact, he just wants to find someone to work for his family, and don't give him monthly money, he usually just needs to take care of some food, and the firewood house is his own home, which is not more cost-effective than spending money to find a helper!
However, in a small period of time, the old man also asked Qin Chuan to stand aside and watch them strike iron, and he did teach Qin Chuan to strike iron.
But there are not many opportunities for this kind, it has to be when the old man is happy, he can be in a good mood, and if he is in a bad mood, Qin Chuan will have to be tired.
But one day, rosacea was actually in a very good mood, and he didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong that day, with a smile on his face.
Moreover, he actually called Qin Chuan, who was chopping firewood in the yard, over and said to him: "You have been watching it for several days, and the master thinks that it is almost over, come, today the master will teach you to hammer and strike iron." ”
As soon as Qin Chuan heard that rosacea was going to teach him to hammer and strike iron, and he could touch the hammer, Qin Chuan, who had been depressed for a few days, suddenly came to his senses: "Master, great!" ”
"Grab the handle with one hand, grasp the handle with the other hand, aim at the iron part to be hit, smash it down, remember it, don't be fast, don't be in a hurry, be steady and accurate!"
"Got it, Master!"
According to the rosacea teaching, Qin Chuan began to pick up the big hammer and hit the red-hot iron one by one, and he hit wherever the old man told him to fight, and he couldn't beat it indiscriminately.
In the first few hits, the fight was not very stable, so the master scolded a dog's blood spray, and after hitting a few more times, he found the feeling, and then slowly became a little more shapely.
"Well, that's it." Finally, the master recognized a little: "Slowly get on the road, just fight like this, don't start fast, be steady and accurate." ”
Rosacea pinned the iron on the side, and just let Qin Chuan fight.
"Ding! Bite! ”
Qin Chuan picked up the hammer and fought like this for an afternoon.
At the beginning, Qin Chuan felt very good, the dream of striking iron that he had dreamed of finally came true, and now he finally stood in front of the red-hot iron block and beat it with a hammer.
But this thing is the first few hits, a little fresh, after this freshness, and then play, then it's not enjoyment, it becomes uncomfortable.
The hammer that Qin Chuan picked up weighed more than 30 pounds, so he lifted it over his head and smashed it down, and he had to grasp the ingenuity and hit the place accurately.
The business of the blacksmith shop is particularly good, and many people come to the old man with a rosacea nose to make iron, and all kinds of iron, weapons, and farm tools.
So naturally he was very busy, and he urgently needed to produce a finished product, and the old man saw that Qin Chuan was almost there, and he could stand alone, so he handed over the task of hammering to him.
And he himself only stood on one side to clamp the iron, and felt much more relaxed, and he could be regarded as finding a person who could replace him in the iron.
In this way, not to mention Qin Chuan, who is five big and three thick, is an iron man, and he has to fall apart.
The main thing is that his family's business is so good, who can stand the continuous hammering?
When he slept at night, Qin Chuan lay on the bed, feeling that his whole arm was no longer his own, and there was a feeling of being removed.
Qin Chuan recalled the scene when he told him to strike iron with a pleasant face during the day, and only then did he know why the old man was so happy.
Because he wanted to take Qin Chuan out of the division as soon as possible, and then hand over the hammer to Qin Chuan as soon as possible, so that he could do this hard work so that he could earn money for himself, and at the same time save a lot of energy for himself.
"Absolutely, amazing!" Qin Chuan thought: "No wonder during the day, when he asked me to go to iron striking, he treated me so well, I see." This old fellow was not at ease, and one afternoon he tried his best to call me, and when he saw that I was a little slower, he made noise and scolded. ”
Qin Chuan really wanted to hit him on the head with an iron hammer.
Now, Qin Chuan knew that the iron striking he had always wanted to learn was such a situation, and he also understood that the outside world and the hearts of people outside were so sinister.
By the time it was the next day, there was no doubt that Qin Chuan still let rosacea call over to strike iron.
Yesterday I had been playing iron for an afternoon, and my arm hurt so badly, but fortunately, after a night's rest, I recovered a little, and now sure enough, he let himself be hammered again.
"Ding! Bite! ”
"Ding! Bite! ”
Qin Chuan's hammer of striking iron was another day, and it was not until the evening that his wife made dinner and asked them to go to dinner, and rosacea asked Qin Chuan to stop, wash his hands and prepare for dinner.
When dinner is over, there is no need to strike iron, the next time can be at your disposal, Qin Chuan only at this time does he feel that he is himself, and during the day, he is not his own, but someone else's.
Just after dinner, the borne-nosed birthmark daughter suddenly spat on her shoes.
"Ironsmith, come here, help me wipe my shoes clean, my shoes are dirty." The birthmark didn't bother to look at Qin Chuan, and he didn't call his name, he directly shouted the iron.
Although Qin Chuan has been pampered since he was a child, he has not suffered much and has been angry, but the life under the fence these days has made Qin Chuan bend his waist for food and shelter.
Normally, if he can bear it, Qin Chuan will endure it and don't care about others, after all, this is someone's place, and he is here to be an apprentice.
But once this person kneels for a long time, he can't stand up, and Qin Chuan is of course no exception.
So, without saying a word, Qin Chuan walked over and wiped the saliva off his shoes with his sleeve for the birthmark.
"Wiped clean." Qin Chuan accompanied the smiling face.
But unexpectedly, the birthmark spit on his shoes again: "My shoes are dirty again, and they are still wiped clean!" ”
Qin Chuan lowered his head, didn't say anything, and still used his sleeve to wipe the birthmark clean of the saliva on his shoes.
"Phew!" Unexpectedly, the birthmark spit out again: "My shoes are dirty again, wipe them clean again!" ”
This is the third time, she is obviously doing it on purpose, just to make things difficult for Qin Chuan, and the blind can see it.
"You did it on purpose." Qin Chuan reasoned with her.
"What happened to me on purpose? I did it on purpose, didn't the shoes get dirty too? Isn't it dirty? Open your dog's eyes and see if it's dirty? ”
"Alright, don't go on and on......." Birthmark daddy, rosacea can't stand it anymore, and he dissuades him.
The birthmark was unwilling, and countered: "What's wrong? He eats my house, lives in my house, what's wrong with me asking him to shine my shoes? ”
"However, he also worked for our family, and it was not easy to work for a day today, don't be foolish, let people rest quickly!" As her father spoke, he stepped forward and pulled Qin Chuan over: "It's okay, you go to sleep, she's a madman, don't pay attention to her." ”
"You're crazy? You and your wife are both crazy, if you are not crazy, can you make me like this? Like a ghost? When you go out at night, you can scare people to death. ”
"Smack!" Unexpectedly, her father slapped her in the face with one ear: "Tell me again, I beat you and you become a ghost!" ”
The birthmark daughter only felt that her face was hot, and she actually felt that her appearance was changing...
Back to Qin Chuan in the firewood house, after thinking about it, he still wanted to leave here and find something to do again.
And he lay in bed, thinking about what the old man he had met in the snow had said when he came, and when he was in trouble, he went to him, and he would help him.
There is also Fang Gang who brought himself to Liangzhou, when they were separated, Fang Gang also said that if they encountered difficulties, they could go to him.
Qin Chuan was thinking about these two people, who could go to find them?
"Fang Gang just opened a small shop, although he was very close to him, in Liangzhou, but he still felt that he couldn't trouble others, so it seemed that he was incapable, and he couldn't find anything to do, so he went to find him."
"And that old man, first of all, it is certain that this person should not be an ordinary person, from the gossip plate he let him take, as well as the palace of the three animals on the mountain, and his appearance of the fairy wind bones, it is not difficult to see."
"Besides, I helped him, and he said that he wanted to thank himself, but he had not thanked himself, so it was more appropriate to go to him. Most of him is a cultivator, or he can have some different Taoism from ordinary people, and he can help himself, maybe he can. ”
After thinking about it, Qin Chuan decided to go to the old man to see if he could get rid of his current predicament.
That night, Qin Chuan packed up his things, put his burden on his back, took silver taels, and went out over the wall to find the old man.
