Chapter 19: Seishiro
Three days later.
A carriage carrying dozens of young women from the North, as well as a truckload of weapons and armor captured by the North, were all escorted to Furong Lane.
The people escorting the carriage were more than 20 Taicang sailors, and the leader was obviously not Lin Hu, but another white-faced scholar with no beard.
He was dressed in a long-sleeved robe, his body was thin, his face was as white as snow, and his jaw was pointed, almost capable of being used as an awl.
According to the letter sent by Lin Hu, this time the person who escorted the supplies should be Zheng Shilang, which is a kind of military civil official.
The rank is even higher than that of Bingcao, but in the Taicang barracks, it is almost a waste, and it is useless except for keeping accounts or writing some official documents.
The main reason for him to escort the captured capture from the north this time was that he would settle accounts, and the most important thing was that he was assigned by the other two soldiers.
It was obvious that they were in a group, and Gu Zhiqing had already made full preparations for this, and the moment that Zheng Shilang walked into the Furong Alley, he asked Feng Ming to organize and take action. They found some singers in a wing room near the Furong alley, deliberately screaming hard, and old singers acted as teaching mammies, constantly whipping wooden stakes.
Anyone who walks into this place will be shocked by the terrible screams and inhumane whips inside. Naturally, Seishiro was no exception to be startled by the voice inside, and then he patted his chest with his hand, and said in a feminine tone: "I'm scared to death, you are screaming, you are born lowly, you are not happy to serve those soldiers well, but now you are going to be sold to the Goolan tile to serve those reckless men..."
Speaking of this, he also let out a ghostly cry that did not resemble a human voice. It just so happened that Seishiro's words were heard by an old singer of Fengming, and then she looked at Seishiro with a hint of indifference in her eyes, as if she was looking at a dying person.
When Zheng Shilang escorted the house into the courtyard, Gu Zhiqing slowly got up to greet him, and first pretended to be confused and asked, "What about Lin Bingcao, didn't he say that he personally escorted him?" ”
"Presumably this is Gu Ye Gu's big boss? Lin Bingcao can't come for the time being, so I will deliver the goods for him to ensure that the goods will not travel to the pool at all."
The Seishiro walked out with square steps, his eyes were narrow and long, like a play, and he did have a bit of the gentle and elegant momentum of those literati on the stage, but there was a touch of evil in his eyes, which made people not very comfortable to watch.
"That's good, whoever comes is the same, as long as the goods are right, it will be" Gu Zhiqing didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he took someone to start inspecting the goods.
The old singer went to check on the young woman in the northern country, while Gu Zhiqing walked towards the carriage and slave Qiu weapons and equipment.
In fact, he didn't tell Lin Hu the truth, Gu Zhiqing really valued not those young women, but the current carriage equipment.
Especially the special horse chopping knives on the carriage, the material of this long knife is surprisingly hard, almost the same as the one he got from Su Ye. With these high-quality steels, Gu Zhiqing can build unique equipment belonging to the Fengming organization. In addition to swordsmen, there are also armor and various military boots, shields, quivers, and so on.
After a rough estimate, Gu Zhiqing felt that these things were enough to create two or three hundred Fengming special weapons.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Gu Zhiqing still sighed, "These things are broken, they are really not very valuable, even those red goods are okay" As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at the carriage behind him.
Zheng Shilang naturally came forward and flattered Gu Zhiqing: "This is a long-term deal, as long as Gu Ye is willing to accept this batch of goods, how about all the good goods in the future?" ”
Everyone said this, what else could Gu Zhiqing say, so he nodded at him and said, "Okay, put the things down, go to the account room to settle the bill, and bring some new wine back to the Taicang brothers and Lin Bingcao to taste."
With an order, Feng Ming immediately beckoned the servants to start unloading the cart, and in the blink of an eye, the carriage was emptied. After that, Feng Ming beckoned someone to stuff the carriage with new wine.
"Go back and bring a message to Lin Bingcao, come to Furong Alley for wine on the seventh day of the first month of next month"
"I'll definitely bring the words to Gu Ye" That Seishiro looked very enthusiastic on the surface, but there was always such an evil nature in the depths of his eyes.
Especially when he looked at Feng Ming's eyes, he seemed to have a hint of imperceptible cold thoughts.
Gu Zhiqing found that his micro-expression was invalid on his face for the first time, it was not that he could disguise, but that his face had no expression at all.
I'm going to say that he has a paralyzed face, and I don't know how he did it, and he became paralyzed at a young age.
Therefore, no matter what he thinks in his heart, it will not appear in the micro-expression, so Gu Zhiqing will not be able to judge his true inner thoughts from the micro-expression.
At least so far, he has not shown hostility, or abnormality, when Gu Zhiqing sent them away, suddenly his eyebrows twitched inexplicably, this feeling is very bad, because when he was an agent in his previous life, once he encountered danger, he would have this inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Back in the courtyard, Gu Zhiqing saw a burly man like a black tower, who was carrying a burden on his shoulders, with a stove and bellows on both sides of the burden.
There are also all kinds of iron-striking tools falling in the middle of the burden, this is the day in the bazaar, Gu Zhiqing saw the blacksmith iron ox.
At this time, he was looking around in a daze, looking a little dazed and helpless.
Gu Zhiqing walked up, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Tie Niu, you are really here."
As soon as Tie Niu turned around, he immediately lifted the burden on his body, then knelt on his knees and kowtowed to Gu Zhiqing.
"Master, Tie Niu has come to learn from the master"
Then he took some dried fish off the burden, and a live chicken was dedicated to Gu Zhiqing.
"This is a gift from Tie Niu's apprenticeship, there are not many things, Tie Niu will honor the master well in the future"
Looking at the blacksmith in front of him and the old hen jumping around, Gu Zhiqing really couldn't laugh or cry.
"Tie Niu, you don't need to worship me as a teacher, I'll pass on your skills..."
Before Gu Zhiqing finished speaking, who knew that the blacksmith actually knocked down and said, "Then I am willing to follow the master to change my surname and be the master's own son to support the master."
Gu Zhiqing was stunned by him, and it took a long time to come to his senses, and he sighed helplessly, "Okay, you can do it if you want to apprentice, but you have to follow three rules to enter my master's door, are you willing?" ”
"Master, please say, the disciple is omniscient" The blacksmith stared at Gu Zhiqing very sincerely.
"One is that you can't pass on this craft to others without the master's permission, you can do it?"
"This is natural, craftsmanship should not be taken lightly, this is a matter that everyone knows"
