The hot wind blows.

Lu Qi wiped his sweat, it was already noon at this time, and the weather was hot.

There weren't many people on the streets.

However, he noticed that people who came and went would more or less glance at him.

I don't know if they are Brother Dao's eyeliner, anyway, in order to prevent people with ulterior motives, he didn't cut corners.

He spends as much iron as a standard knife spent.

Moreover, the quality of the standard knife is still two percent higher than that of the ordinary lower grade, not more, nor less.

More attention, less makes him lose his value.

Lu Qi felt that more than two percent was just right.

There were still two hours left until dinner time, and it was a difficult afternoon.

Lu Qi sped up, and the last hammer fell, and he began to sharpen his knife.

Find a shady spot, sit down and splash water, and start sharpening your knife.

Last night he sharpened three knives, which was faster and more skillful, and it took him more than half an hour.

And now, it took him more than half an hour to sharpen a knife, and just like that, it was still fast, and it had to be a master to have such speed.

Otherwise, the ordinary unopened lower grade knives are all made by apprentices, and they must be sharpened for at least two days and two nights.

After sharpening the knife, it happened that Li Mu'er also came back with something, so he took advantage of the situation to close the stall.

There is still more than an hour in the afternoon, and continuing to work will arouse suspicion, so it is better to go back to rest than to touch the fish.

Really.

When he returned, a thug hiding in a corner tea shop let out a sigh of relief.

"I thought that kid was dying, he didn't rest much after a day, and he still couldn't hold on, so he had to go back to rest. Next, it's time for me to go back and rest. ”

The thugs are gone.

However, soon someone lived in the vacant house on the street, and they would not be watching the street at night, otherwise they would be discovered, but by listening to the voice, they could know Lu Qi's work.

"Lu Lang, I bought some wheat bran, some flour, and a little wild vegetables, and Uncle Liu's house still has sauerkraut for sale, I bought some back, which can be made into pork sauerkraut buns."

Lu Qi nodded, closed the door, and began to cook.

But.

Basically, he doesn't have to work, Li Mu'er is alone in making noodles, cutting vegetables and meat, seasoning, and making steamed buns.

Even if Lu Qi wanted to do it, Li Mu'er hurried to stop it.

In her words, "Lu Lang, you are in charge, you are tired enough to strike iron, hurry up and rest, this kind of work is done by your daughter's family." ”

No matter how Lu Qi tried to help, she would not allow it to interfere.

Lu Qi had no choice but to be happy, and went back to the room to look through the Zongyundu parchment scroll, after looking at this thing, it could improve Lu Qi's proficiency.

The amount of good fortune required to add points in the future will also be reduced accordingly, and even if he has enough understanding, he will one day realize Xiaocheng, and he will not need to add points.

It is the beginning of enlightenment with tireless work.

An hour passed.

Li Mu'er knocked lightly on the door.

"Lu Lang, the buns are ready."

Lu Qi then put the sheepskin roll under a loose brick in the corner of the wall and put it away, and then pushed the door out.

I saw that there was already a pot of buns on the table, at least twenty of them, each the size of two fists.

Li Mu'er smiled: "Lu Lang, you have a very good appetite recently, so you made more." There are also some steamed and put away, and tomorrow I will send some to Aunt Niu's house, and we will continue to eat. ”

Lu Qi nodded with a smile and said, "I'm relieved that the family will be handed over to you." ”

Li Mu'er's heart suddenly warmed, and her eyes were full of emotion.

Being able to get Lu Qi's recognition is more important to her than anything else.

Lu Qi said: "Eat." ”

But he didn't sit down, Li Mu'er wouldn't sit down, let alone eat.

That is, Lu Qi picked up one, ate a bite, and then let him eat, Li Mu'er picked up the smallest bun in the pot, and there was a little wild vegetable leaf on the bun.

This is Li Muer's deliberate, when making steamed buns, he deliberately made small snacks, and then there was very little meat foam in it, more wild vegetables and sauerkraut, not even oil and water.

And the other big buns with white flowers are full of meat foam, as well as eggs and sauerkraut, which are prepared for Lu Qi.

Lu Qi took a bite and was very satisfied.

Crossing over, he didn't know the taste of meat for half a month, and he was able to eat meat for two meals today, which made him feel that it was worth crossing a game.

Still, it's not enough.

Or still earn more, eat better, and live better.

Lu Qi secretly decided.

I noticed Li Mu'er's situation again, and watched her chew and swallow slowly, afraid that if she ate too fast, she would eat too much.

Moreover, the inside of the bun is green, and there is no oil, water, or meat foam, and even broken eggs, so you can understand what is going on.

He quickly finished the one in his hand, and then another, but this one, half of which he did not eat, was thrown on the table.

Li Mu'er was shocked, "Lu Lang, but it's not delicious?" ”

Lu Qi said: "There is sand. ”

Li Mu'er panicked, and hurriedly picked it up to check, but she couldn't see it at all, and she didn't dare to suspect Lu Qi, so she just tried it shallowly.

"Nope."

"Yes."

Take another bite.

"Still not."

"Yes."

It wasn't until Li Mu'er finished eating half of the meat buns and didn't eat the sand that she understood Lu Qi's intentions, and she suddenly burst into tears.

"Lu Lang, how can I be worthy of you like this?"

"It's all a family, you're welcome, it's time to eat, don't save it, it will be better in the future."

Li Mu'er nodded heavily, but after she finished eating this half, she refused to eat it again.

In order to prevent Lu Qi from continuing to let her eat, she also took the initiative to find a topic.

"Lu Lang, I heard that the son of the king butcher of the delicatessen shop had already made a contribution when he was developing the ore vein, and he was appreciated by the giant knife gate, and with the help of the steward, he raised his strength to the realm of skin refining. In the future, the butcher Wang's family will ascend to heaven, which is really good luck. ”

Lu Qi was thoughtful.

However, the family of the seventh aunt, the neighbor of the butcher, had a hard time, and her husband and two sons went to serve as a conscriptor and a laborer, and they all died in the mines, reportedly by the thieves. She has moved out of Ping'an Street overnight and is going back to her parents' house. ”

Speaking of this, I sighed.

Lu Qi hummed a few times, no matter how much, he was really hungry, he was already in the Bone Forging Realm, he usually had five or six catties of food, if he was fighting, I was afraid that he would have more than ten catties of food.

Let's talk about eating first.

After eating, he poured another pot of water, and Lu Qi was seven points full.

When the night darkened a little, through the window, there were fewer pedestrians on the street, and Lu Qi went out to work again.

The molten iron is calcined first, and when the iron is turned into molten iron, there are no pedestrians on the street.

Lu Qi began to continue to build standard knives, or a steel-filled method to build a good one, first do not open the front, and then start to build horizontal knives.

Last night, Lu Qi was relatively fresh, and in addition to the horizontal knife, he also created a dog-legged knife for self-defense.

Now he doesn't need to build a dogleg knife anymore, he can spend all his time on the horizontal knife.

Two horizontal knives can be created in one night, all of which are just qualified at the next level.

When he heard the husband knock on the bang, he began to polish three knives, this time he gave priority to polishing two horizontal knives, and after half an hour, he sharpened the standard knives a little, and then called it a day.

He had to leave some work until tomorrow to keep others from thinking that he could really make a standard knife in one night.

And after finishing the night's work, Lu Qi did not go to the dark workshop, but chose to sleep.

The next day, when I opened the door, the dog leg came to inquire again, but his attitude was much better, but between words, if there was no words, did he Lu Qi deduct iron materials!

Lu Qi retorted, and the dogleg just smiled and didn't say much.

And so, on the fourth day.

Lu Qi built six standard knives, three and a half during the day and two and a half at night.

And this night, he did not continue to build standard knives.

And during the day he has deliberately let out the wind, he is too tired, he has to rest for the night, eat early, that is, turn off the lights and rest.

No one doubted it.

Even if he didn't rest after four days and three nights, people would wonder if he was beaten with iron.

Lu Qi didn't work, but he didn't sleep.

In the past few days, except for the first day when a knife was sold, in the next three nights, deducting tonight's, he has already hit four low-grade horizontal knives.

I heard that there are thieves in the giant knife gate mine, and the price of weapons is good, and they have generally risen by three or four percent.

Tonight it's time to make a move.

Accumulation is too much, and it is not appropriate.

With his strength in the Bone Forging Realm, if it is exposed, it is still possible to master the wealth of the four lower-grade swords.

The value of the qualified low-grade knife was eight taels of silver in the past, and now the price increase is between eleven and twelve taels of silver, not to mention the forging bone realm, it is the skin refining realm, and it can be barely mastered.

In order to reduce the possible exposure caused by going to the dark workshop many times, Lu Qi planned to get rid of these four knives at once, and then buy a large amount of food and meat, if he could buy some medicine, it would be even better.

He brought a sack, wrapped four horizontal knives, stuffed a change of clothes into his arms, and pinned a dog-legged knife under his waist clothes.

Putting on a half-wooden mask and wiping the plaster on his chin and neck, Lu Qi went out.

"Lu Lang, go early and return early." Li Mu'er is still guarding the house, but she is very worried.

Lu Qi hummed, asked her to close the door, and went out.
