"I don't know how much this lord bids. (Teng Yunlong smiled and looked at the black fox Qiu Ling.)

The leader chuckled and said, "You are completely responsible for the materials, the price, take a whole number, one hundred taels of silver and a Bihan knife! ”

"One hundred taels?" Teng Yunlong frowned, although he said that one hundred taels of silver was a large amount, but Bihan Dao ...... It is Tengjiazhuang's unique skill, the materials are also extremely expensive, and the difficulty of refining is extremely high, so if you sell it to the outside, it will sell at least one hundred taels or even more. If you only sell for a hundred taels of silver, you will make too little money.

"This adult, is it a little less?" Teng Yongfan said.

Na Ling sneered: "Okay, don't take us for fools! If we bid high, we don't need to run to you in person! One hundred taels of silver, will you take it?"

"Pick it up!"

Teng Yunlong squeezed out a smile and said, "This lord, but with 182 Bihan knives, our Tengjiazhuang has never taken over such a big business." The materials stored in the village are enough to refine two Bihan knives. It costs a lot of silver...... Did you give us the money first?"

"The silver will be given to you before the things arrive?" the black fox fur collar sneered.

Teng Qingshan, who was quietly watching all this from the sidelines, was shocked: "Doesn't this leader want to give money? One hundred taels of silver, that's a big business worth nearly twenty thousand taels of silver." Zhuang Li just took out all the surplus money, I'm afraid I can barely raise it. Do you want to use this collar to be strong?" Teng Qingshan has already prepared to prevent the worst situation.

"This lord laughed, we Tengjiazhuang is an ordinary mountain villa, how much money can we have? We can't even raise the money to buy materials, how can we refine weapons for adults?" Teng Yunlong said with a smile, "Please understand our difficulties." ”

The collar's face sank.

Teng Yongfan next to him smiled and said, "This adult." You are a man of your own right. Are you still worried that we are greedy for your money in an ordinary mountain village? Our Tengjiazhuang ancestors have been here for generations. It is impossible to escape. Your Excellency will advance the money to us. When the time comes. We will present the Bihan Knife. ”

Black Fox Fur hesitated for a moment. Then he sneered: "You poor villa. I'm afraid it's hard to raise the money. ”

said. He took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom. Throw it on the table.

"This is eight thousand taels of silver tickets. There is a large seal of Yangzhou Qianzhuang on it. You examine it carefully. Black Fox Qiu Ling said.

Yangzhou money bank?

Teng Qingshan took a closer look. This is the first time to see a silver ticket.

The silver ticket has a large seal with the word "Yangyan", and there are complex numerical numbers such as "one 23 thousand", and there is a line of words at the bottom of the line: "The edict of the eight major sects of Kyushu, those who forge the silver ticket will be killed".

Teng Qingshan was shocked when he saw it: "Eight major sects in Kyushu? There are eight of the most powerful sects in Kyushu in this world?"

"Silver ticket......?" Teng Yunlong frowned, "My lord, this is the exchange at the money bank, and you also have to pay the money." And...... This business is nearly 20,000 taels of silver, which is far from enough. We are a small mountain villa, I'm afraid it's ......," Teng Yunlong said hesitantly.

The leader stood up, his face gloomy.

"Hmph, eight thousand taels of silver tickets, not a single copper coin! We set up a note, when the time comes, you go to Yicheng to deliver the goods, and we will pay the final payment. The leader said indifferently, the two subordinates behind the leader also had their hands attached to the handle of the long knife at their waists, and many cavalrymen outside the courtyard were also staring at the courtyard.

Teng Qingshan took a deep breath and was ready to make a move.

Teng Yunlong and Teng Yongfan glanced at each other.

"Since your Excellency has said so, we will make a note. Teng Yunlong laughed.

"That's right. The leader smiled.

Both parties immediately signed and signed a note, which detailed the place of delivery, the time, and the payment.

"Hey, this lord, let us send it to the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce in Yicheng?" Teng Yunlong said in surprise, "It turns out that your lords are from the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce." ”

"You know, don't play any tricks with us, and every handle of the Bihan knife, we will check it when the time comes, if there is a problem with the quality, hum ......" After the leader finished speaking, he took the note, and did not talk nonsense, and strode out of the courtyard directly.

"Brothers, go!"

At the sound of an order, this group of cavalry roared away.

"Dad, what's going on with this Yangzhou money bank?" Teng Qingshan looked at the silver ticket suspiciously.

Teng Yongfan explained with a smile: "Qingshan, in Kyushu in this world, the richest are Yangzhou salt merchants and Yuzhou giant businessmen, after all, Yangzhou and Yuzhou are the two most prosperous in Kyushu. Therefore, in this world, there are only two truly trustworthy money banks, one is 'Yangzhou Money Village', and the other is 'Yuzhou Yinhao'. Only these two silver tickets can pass through the world unimpeded, of course, we generally do not accept silver tickets. ”

"Why?" Teng Qingshan was puzzled.

Isn't it easy to store silver tickets?

"This silver ticket is actually a 'exchange evidence' obtained by storing gold and silver in a money bank and a silver number, and this silver ticket has a special number on it, and there is a special process for production. Prevent counterfeiting. Since the money bank helps you save money, of course, you have to collect a certain amount of money. Therefore, this seems to be 8,000 taels of silver tickets, but when I go to get it, I can't get that much. ”

Teng Qingshan understood in his heart.

In modern society, there is interest on saving money, but in ancient times, saving money had to be paid.

This can also be understood, in ancient society, merchants did business, and it was troublesome to carry a large amount of gold and silver, and silver tickets were easy to carry, and it was better to hide and be safer.

"Isn't there anyone who fakes the silver ticket?" Teng Qingshan asked rhetorically.

Grandfather Teng Yunlong next to him laughed: "Haha, who dares......? The eight major sects in Kyushu decreed that those who forged silver tickets would be killed. ”

"What are the Eight Great Sects?" Teng Qingshan asked.

Teng Yongfan explained: "Qingshan, I told you in the past that in my Yangzhou, the most powerful sect is 'Qinghu Island', and in the other eight states, there are also high-level sects, and in this world, there are eight strongest forces, known as the eight major sects. Their common edict, if anyone disobeys, there will be nowhere to escape in this world!"

Kyushu, but there are only eight.

It seems that one of the states does not have a level sect, or rather, a level sect that controls the land of the two states.

"These eight major sects are simply the eight great princes!" Teng Qingshan said secretly in his heart.

Sects are the pinnacle of force in this world, and each has a powerful army. You must know that even the Guiyuan Sect has 6,000 black armor troops!

What about the eight-level sects?

"Yangzhou salt merchants, there are countless money, and there are many masters, they are not afraid that we are greedy for this money. Teng Yunlong sneered, then turned his head to look at Teng Yongfan, and ordered, "Yongfan, tonight, you quietly go to the third Wang to place an order! Let him tell them the boss about the materials we want to buy." Let them boss, hurry up and send the materials over. ”

"Rest assured. Teng Yongfan nodded.

"The most troublesome thing now is time!" Teng Yongfan frowned and said, "Master, there is still more than a month to go, and it is really difficult to refine 182 Bihan Knives." Moreover, the other brothers have no mastery of the craft of the Bihan knife at all, and there is no one else in this clan who can help. ”

"It's okay, as soon as the materials arrive, I'll refine them with you. Teng Yunlong said.

"Master......" Teng Yongfan was shocked.

"What, do you think I'm too old?" Teng Yunlong laughed.

Teng Yunlong is now over sixty years old, and his physical strength and energy have declined, and refining the Bihan Knife requires very high arm strength and skills.

"Don't worry, I'll help, 182 Bihan knives, when the time comes, most of them will still be refined by you. Teng Yunlong said.

"Hmm. Teng Yongfan then turned his head to look at Qingshan, "Qingshan, I have something for you to do." Tomorrow, you will lead your team of hunters into the mountains again. Go to the 'Bihan Pond' to get water. ”

"Where is Bihantan?" Teng Qingshan wondered.

However, Bihan Knife and Bihan Pond, Teng Qingshan also guessed it, I'm afraid there is some connection.

"Don't worry, Qinghu and their old members all know. You tell them and they'll take you. The quenching agent used to refine the Bihan knife must be the water of Bihan Pond. You bring two tanks over, all full. Teng Yongfan said with emotion, Teng Qingshan didn't know anything about refining, and just nodded: "Don't worry, Dad." ”

This business has a great impact on the clan.

After all, it was worth nearly 20,000 taels of silver, Tengjiazhuang did not dare to relax in the slightest, and early the next morning, Teng Qingshan took the hunter team into the mountain.

"Qingshan, we Tengjiazhuang people, can eat well and dress well. It's this Bihan knife. In Dayan Mountain, Teng Qinghu explained with a smile, "And the refining of this Bihan Knife is not known to outsiders about the refining skills, and the second is the water of this Bihan Pool. Aoyama, you don't know...... The water in the blue cold pool, that's called a cold. ”

Teng Qingshan was a little surprised.

"Even in summer, the water is cold, much colder than the ice and snow in winter, but the strange thing is that it doesn't freeze!" said a clansman next to him, "The weapons that are quenched with this water are sharp and tough." ”

"If you put your hand into the cold pool, your hand will be numb all of a sudden. ”

"Last time I chased a pheasant and fell in, and as soon as I fell in, it froze to death. Can't climb up at all. ”

The surrounding clansmen, you and I are talking one by one, obviously they have all seen the magic of Bihan Pond.

"So amazing?" Teng Qingshan was surprised.
