"That's the power of softness. The old man put his sword back into its sheath and said with a faint smile: "Although your cultivation is deeper than that of the old man, this soft strength must be far behind, so don't waste money, and wait for someone with more experience to come." ”

With that, he put half a piece of broken silver on the stone platform, turned around and no longer looked at the group of brocade-clothed young men in front of him.

"What are you bragging!" one of the slightly chubby brocade-clothed young men shouted loudly: "You are just a person in the Quenching Body Realm, and everyone in our Jiafu Martial Arts Hall is better than you, not to mention that this son is already in the Qi Pulse Realm!"

The young man he pointed to was dressed in a blue suit, and his eyes were a little suspicious when he looked at the old man, and his appearance was silent.

The slightly chubby young man stepped forward, snorted and drew his sword, and said loudly: "Let me Pang Jun let you see it first!"

With that, he raised his long sword and slowly approached the salt pile, but just as his hand was about to straighten, the tip of the sword was already shaking. He had to slow down, his fat face quickly turned red, and the tip of his sword grinded forward very slowly, as if it had turned into a snail.

There were bursts of boos from the crowd of onlookers, and he finally couldn't hold it back, and the tip of his sword was sent, but a large piece of salt was shoveled. When he took it out, there was a large pinch of salt on the tip of the sword, at least a hundred, which had almost all been shaken off by the time it was brought to another bowl.

There was a burst of laughter all around. Pang Jun's fat face was flushed, he patted off half of the broken silver, and retreated with his head buried.

"Stupid. Another boy stepped forward, his sword much more steady, shoveling out about a dozen grains of salt, and shaking off a small half in the middle.

"I think I've got a little bit of a knack for it. The third man stepped forward, and this time he chose to use it as fast as possible, but the audience didn't see how much he had scooped out, and all the salt was blown into the wind.

In this way, in a short time, a pile of silver was already placed on the old man's stone platform.

The young man in blue finally stepped forward, stared at the old man coldly, and said lightly, "What's your name?"

The old man arched his hand and smiled: "The old body is Huamao, a wandering entertainer, and he has been in the village for a month." ”

"I may not be able to do this trick of yours. The young man in blue took out a whole piece of silver, threw it into the air lightly, and said disdainfully: "Silver, I don't care." But if you appear in Crescent Village again tomorrow, don't blame me Jia Fu for being ruthless, go!"

The silver fell to the ground, and the brocade-clad boys pushed away the crowd and left in a rage.

The old man was not angry at all, he quickly bowed down to copy the silver in his hand, and shook his hand at the boys, "Thank you for taking care of you!" He took the piece of silver into his arms, turned around and looked at the crowd, and smiled lazily: "Come on, come on, Jiu-Jitsu challenge, winner takes all." ”

And when there was a commotion among the people, they were about to disperse. Seeing that everyone in Jiafu is like this, who would dare to send money? For the villagers, half a piece of broken silver is not a small number.

Lin Yi had already turned his bags upside down, and finally grabbed a small handful of finely broken silver, barely half a piece of broken silver. Then he held it in both hands, and fell on the stone platform with a "bang".

The old man first narrowed his eyes, looked at him for a while, and then showed a bright smile and said, "Oh, he is actually a young man in the same quenching realm as the old body, and it seems that he is quite confident in jiu-jitsu."

"These swords are too light to be considered jiu-jitsu. Lin Yi shook his head, raised Xue Xuan flatly, and said with a smile: "It's still interesting to use this sword." ”

Mu Huamao looked at him suspiciously, and said tentatively: "This friend, is there something strange in the sword?"

Lin Yi generously sent the sword to him, and said, "Otherwise, you can try it first." ”

Mu Huamao took Xue Xuan, his arms sank, his complexion changed, and then he said with a smile: "No need, no need, if Brother Tai can take out the same or less salt as the old body and not count it all, the old body will lose." ”

Lin Yi took Xue Xuan back, smiled slightly, and raised the heavy sword with one hand.

His internal breath circulated in his body, and gradually flowed into Xue Xuan's soft iron veins. Along the way, he had gradually mastered the method of infusing the sword with internal breath, but it could not increase the power, and it seemed to be of little use.

However, he can make this sword his hand. Even if it was more difficult for him to lift Xue Xuan with one hand, because the internal breath flowed in the sword body, as long as his muscles could still support it, it would not make the tip of the sword tremble.

He gently lowered the blade of his sword into the salt heap, as if holding a pair of chopsticks. Then the blade of the sword was gradually taken out, and it shook lightly on the salt pile, and only one grain of salt remained, and it was held so firmly that it was almost invisible, and gently put it into a large bowl a few meters away.

"Concession. Congratulations to the old gentleman for reaping a piece of silver. Lin Yi arched his hand towards the old man, and unceremoniously put all the broken silver on the stone platform into his bag, and went away.

Mu Huamao looked at Lin Yi's distant back, opened his mouth wide and was speechless for a while. After a while, I was so distressed that I wanted to vomit blood because I lost so much silver, and then I was glad that I didn't put the silver on the table.

Luckily, I encountered such a good thing when I went out for a while, but I can't always count on such a windfall, I still have to find a job.

Lin Yi continued to browse the large and small shops in the village, while thinking about what to do with the broken silver.

Lao Huang must be reluctant to accept direct money. The restaurant has been short of ingredients for a long time, forcing Lao Huang to go hunting every day, and sometimes miss out on business. Start by buying something suitable for preservation, such as bacon, bacon, lard, vegetable oil, etc. You also have to buy some cooking utensils to replace those old items that are difficult to use. Then buy a better set of clothes for Lao Huang and Yingying. It's almost time to run out.

If Liu Wenlin can still come to teach Mr. in the village after that, then he must also save some money for Yingying and let her go to school when she is older.

Before he knew it, he had already wandered around the path by the lake, and then he walked out to some peasant houses, and the people in the village were hard-working and poor, and no one must have the strength to recruit a coolie to do the work. The shop I asked just now, the tailor shop only recruits women who know how to trade, the blacksmith shop pays a pitiful amount of wages, the carpenter's shop has not been open for a long time, the medical hall is all closed, and I met Zhang Shun again, his fishing business is also very bleak, and he doesn't need helpers.

If you want to talk about wages, I'm afraid only Najia Mansion gives it more generously.

The things they wanted were ordered from the tailors and blacksmiths, and when they were ready, they sent them to the restaurant. He walked to a place that smelled of blood.

"Hey, boy, it's you!"

Lin Yi was stunned, and saw a bald strong man with a big fat belly greeting him. He pondered for a moment, and he couldn't remember where he had seen this man.

"I've been looking for you for a long time!" The big man had a big knife in his hand, and wanted to come over and pat him, but found that his hands were full of blood, so he wiped it vigorously on his apron.

Lin Yi was stunned and said, "May I ask who you are?"

"You just came, who in this village doesn't know my Tie Dali's name!" The strong man wiped his hands for a long time, but still gave up, grinning: "I am the only butcher in the village! I am not the only one, but those are far from me! I saw you just now, you can try it!" With that, he put a large piece of bone-in meat on the board with a "pop!"

Only then did Lin Yi understand that this Tie Dali was one of the onlookers just now, what question was this going to give him? He shook his head and smiled: "Although I am not a noble son, I can't use a sword to cut meat. ”

"Ahem!, I would tell you to use a sword, that sword can't be cut well!" Tie Dali handed him a bright big knife again, "I heard that you are looking for a way to live everywhere, I just need someone who can hold the knife steadily, if so, my salary here is the best among the few shops in the village." Give it a try!"

Looking at this shop full of meat, it is estimated that the income is indeed good. If you work in a butcher shop, you may be able to give Yingying some supplements often.

Although the previous trick relied on Xue Xuan's tricks, this time I had to try.

Lin Yi took the meat cutting knife, used his strength and concentration to cut it on the ribs, and after a while, he was sweating.

Tie Dali looked at the slices of meat he had deboned and shaved, frowned and said, "It doesn't seem to be as magical as I imagined......"

Lin Yi smiled and said: "After all, I haven't practiced sword picking and bone picking, so it's good to be familiar with it." ”

"That's it!" Tie Dali finally patted him hard, still leaving a bloody handprint on his shoulder, "It's barely enough, and there are fewer and fewer young people who can endure hardships now, so you can come tomorrow!"

After discussing the wages with Tie vigorously for a while, and ordering some meat for Lao Huang's restaurant, Lin Yi finally relaxed a lot and walked in the direction of the village middle school.
