"Blacksmith Zhang, something is wrong!"

There was a shouting sound outside the door, followed by a heavy knock on the door, and the blacksmith Zhang who was casting the mold frowned, his craftsmanship was all on the word "god", and he must concentrate and concentrate on creating good farm tools.

"I've taught you the last few steps, try it yourself. ”

Blacksmith Zhang handed the tool to his eldest son, who was watching from the side.

"Hmm. ”

Blacksmith Zhang's eldest son is called Zhang Da Hammer, is seventeen years old, honest and kind, although the talent is not good, but the victory is willing to endure hardships, the ancestral craft has been learned six or seven percent, the technique has passed, what is lacking is the feel and experience, Zhang Blacksmith is afraid of ruining his own reputation, has not dared to let him master forging tools, only let him complete some irrelevant processes to practice.

Although the second and third sons are smarter than Zhang Da Hammer, Zhang Blacksmith still decided to pass on the family business to Zhang Da Hammer, in addition to the order of the young and the young, more importantly, he feels that the eldest son can be a down-to-earth man, loyal by nature, in the final analysis, the inheritance of the family business still depends on honest people, just like himself.

"What's the nonsense, Li Leper head, are there dead people in your family?"

Blacksmith Zhang said angrily that he hated it most when others came to disturb him when he was forging tools.

"This is much bigger than the dead in the family, and it's a great thing!" Li said panting, with a happy face, "I went to the town early this morning, drink, that's more than one person, I estimate that people from nine nearby villages are here, squeeze in and inquire, do you know what's going on?"

Blacksmith Zhang said angrily: "How do I know, I haven't been to the town in the past few days, don't sell it, hurry up." ”

"Okay, okay, I don't sell Guanzi, but you take a breath first, don't be scared when you hear it, there are two immortal chiefs in the town, and they want to open a school in the town to teach everyone immortal methods. ”

After hearing this, Blacksmith Zhang not only did not show an ecstatic expression, but looked at Li Letou with a madman's eyes, and Li Letou was suddenly unhappy.

"Hey, look at your face, don't you think I'm calling you, right? I didn't believe it at first, I thought it must be a liar to cheat money, the immortals in the story are all others kneeling and kowtowing to beg them to accept apprentices, how can anyone come to the door to take the initiative to teach people, but as soon as the immortal chief makes a move, I immediately believe it, in short, you just look at my head. ”

Li Leper stretched his head over, and saw that it was smooth and there was nothing peculiar about it, but Blacksmith Zhang's eyes immediately widened.

"Is your leper cured?"

"No! I've been leprosy for 30 years, and I can't cure it at all, but as soon as the immortal chief makes a move, he touches my head, and then the warm stuff flows in, and in less than a stick of incense, my leprosy is fine! Those leprosy are all gone! Just this handicraft, who dares to say that he is not a fairy?"

Blacksmith Zhang's face became solemn, he took out a cigarette stick and took a puff, and said: "Even if the immortal is true, the immortal law is also true, it has nothing to do with us if he wants to teach people, just like the private school in the village, where can ordinary people afford it, I am afraid that before the school starts, the quota will be taken up by those old men." ”

said this, but thought in his heart, if there is a chance, smashing the pot and selling iron, he will also send his son to learn the immortal law, the eldest son is old, and people may not be able to see it, but the third son is only ten years old, and he has been clever since he was a child, and he originally planned to send him to the school, but now he has a better choice, and he has to fight for anything.

Li Leper smiled and said: "If it's just like this, it's not a good thing, but the immortal chief said that they are not limited this time, how many comes, how much he teaches, and they are only the first batch, and there will be a second and third batches next, and they will come to various villages to collect apprentices." ”

"And this good thing?" Blacksmith Zhang was a little unconvinced, "How much do they want to pay for tuition?"

"Don't want money, and pay for it! Send a child to school, and get rid of 10% of the grain tax, and the more you give, the more you will be exempted. ”

"How is this possible!"

If it weren't for the fact that Li Leprosy's cured head was right in front of him, Blacksmith Zhang would definitely think that he had met a liar.

"The government has posted notices, can this be fake? Anyway, I don't charge money, whether it's true or not, I have to report a name for the eldest girl, if it's true, it would be good if the mother-in-law was not angry, and gave birth to three money-losing goods, now it's okay, you can be exempted from 30% tax in one breath, who wants to marry my girl in the future, I don't agree if the dowry is not enough." ”

Li Letou has always wanted a son, but unfortunately his mother gave birth to three daughters for him, and he quarreled with his mother-in-law a lot about this.

The son is his own, and the daughter will belong to someone else's family sooner or later, and the longer she raises it, the more she loses, so it is better to marry out early, and the family will have one less mouth to eat.

But now it's different, people don't care about men and women, sons are exempt from one percent tax, daughters are also exempt from one percent tax, once married, this should be exempted from one percent tax is gone, rather than marrying out, it is better to stay at home, how much can do some farm work, and there is still money every year.

The common people are the most shrewd, which is good for them and which is not good for them, and they know it clearly in their hearts.

Blacksmith Zhang also immediately understood why Li Letou wanted to tell himself the news in a hurry, and dared to remind himself that the bride price could not be less.

Originally, he still wanted to spend a few days, so he proposed to the eldest girl of Li Letou's family for the eldest son of the family, and specially asked the matchmaker to let out the news, but now it seems that without a penny of blood, it is impossible for the other party to agree.

However, compared to the marriage that may be Huang, it is more important to learn from the immortals.

Blacksmith Zhang asked Li Letou a few more questions, but unfortunately Li Letou himself was also hearsay, and his knowledge was limited.

After thinking about it, Blacksmith Zhang decided to take his youngest son and go to the town to see it in person, although Li Letou said that there will be immortals in the village to collect apprentices in the future, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future, what if people regret it?

Blacksmith Zhang doesn't understand the truth, but he knows one thing, you have to strike iron while it's hot, and when the time comes, you have to smash it hard, and if you miss it, good steel will also be smelted into scrap iron.

So he immediately found his youngest son who was playing with his friends from the field, and then took out most of the family's savings, carefully carried it in his arms, borrowed an ox cart from a neighbor, and hurried to the town.

But when he arrived halfway, he saw a large group of people coming towards him, and the number of people was not less than a thousand, and he did not know what was happening, so he hurriedly flashed to the side, for fear of colliding with people.

Fortunately, he found an acquaintance in the crowd, and hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Da Niu, what's going on?"

The man's name is Da Niu, but he is not tall, his body is not strong, and he is not as strong as Zhang Da Hammer, but his family name is Niu, so from old to young, he is called Lao Niu, Big Niu, and Little Niu.

The big cow was very excited, and danced with his hands and said: "The immortal wants to take us to the field and teach us to farm!"

Immortals teach farming? Immortals still care about this?

Blacksmith Zhang wondered in his heart, but since he had met them, he just followed to take a look, and he was also very curious about how the immortals farmed.

"I think about it, the immortal must use immortal magic to farm, hand stroke and finger, and then the light flashes and flashes, and then the field is planted. Da Niu guessed.

Blacksmith Zhang thought the same way, but he was cautious, easy to keep silent, and he wouldn't say it if he wasn't very sure.

At this time, a scholar next to him sneered: "What are you doing, you should be doing tricks? Even immortal art is not so easy to use, have you seen those Taoist books? Anyone who cultivates Taoism knows how to drive the Yellow Turban Warriors, that is the real hard work, this immortal chief must also summon the Yellow Turban Warriors, and then order the Yellow Turban Warriors to work." ”

"Don't! If that's the case, Old Man Zhao's family will definitely not hire us tenants anymore, he just needs to learn the immortal method from the immortals, and then send the Yellow Turban Lux in the future, these Yellow Turban Lux don't need to eat, don't have to pay, with them, what else do we want us to do?" said an old man with calloused hands with a sad face.

Everyone had their own thoughts, or expectations, or worries, or curiosity, and went all the way to the fields.

In order not to hinder the immortal chief from casting spells, everyone scattered one after another, vacating the open space, and at this time Zhang blacksmith saw the appearance of the immortal chief clearly, he was unbelievably young, without white hair, nor turtle-shaped crane back, and looked like he was about the same age as his eldest son.

Could it be that as those storytellers say, there is a skill in rejuvenation, or immortality?" Zhang Blacksmith guessed in his heart.

Under everyone's gaze, I saw that the fairy chief took out a strange thing about the size of a small cart, the body of the thing was a boxy iron bump, and there were three wheels underneath, and in front of the bump was a plow-like thing, and behind it were two long handles.

"This thing is called the True Qi Cultivator, you don't need to learn any magic or martial arts, as long as you hold this hand, and then inject True Qi into it, you can cultivate the land by yourself. ”

The fairy chief stretched out his hands to hold the handle, and then he saw the beads inlaid on both sides of the handle light up, and then the iron lump made a "rumbling and rumbling" sound, and slowly moved forward, and wherever he walked, several straight ploughing lines were pulled out, and the big mud blocks that stuck together were also pounded into powder.

"It's so convenient, it's faster than driving oxen to plow the land, and it's much finer than a plow. ”

"With this thing, you don't need helpers, you don't need cattle, you can easily plough three acres of land by yourself, and this thing is made of iron, you won't get sick or die of old age, and you should be able to repair it if it's broken. ”

"But the Immortal Chief didn't say that if you want to use this thing, you have to inject true qi into it, and we don't have true qi, so even if we have, we can't use it. ”

"Have you forgotten? Immortal Elder said that he wanted to teach us internal strength, just so that we can have true qi, even if we can't learn it, when those little cubs learn it, won't we be able to use it in the future?"

"You say, the immortal chief teaches us internal strength, will it be just to sell this or something?"

Although everyone was suspicious, they didn't dare to ask, for fear that they would evil the immortal chief and invite a catastrophe, so they looked at each other for a while, and they all stopped talking.

In the end, it was the old man Zhao who came forward and asked respectfully: "Dare to ask the immortal chief, I don't know if this true qi cultivator is sold, if it is sold, how much is it worth?"

"Eighty coins. ”

"Dare to ask the Immortal Chief, is it a gold coin or a silver coin?"

"It's the Six Dao Coin, a coin endorsed by the Six Dao Sect, it will be launched soon, linked to the merit points within the Six Dao Sect, and can only be obtained by completing the tasks announced by the Six Dao Sect, for you, these things are too far away, if you want to get the Six Dao Coins, you will obediently send the outstanding heirs of the family to go to school, practice the internal strength of the mind, as long as you can pass the assessment and graduate, you can get a hundred Six Dao Coins. ”

Several landlords and squires glanced at each other, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "We are willing to raise the clan to support the immortal chief, and let all the school-age children in the clan follow the immortal chief to learn the immortal method." ”

Zhao Fengxian, who was called the Immortal Chief, glanced at these old men coldly, and said, "Put away your little abacus, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, you want to learn, we may not be willing to accept it?" In the first batch of meritorious service, each family can only produce one person, and the quota is not allowed to be transferred, remember not to engage in those unsightly methods, your scheming is as ridiculous as a child's game in my eyes, the government will talk to you about the royal law, I will not reason with you, before engaging in any conspiracy, think more about the consequences. ”

The landlords and squires were immediately silent, nodding their heads as if chickens were pecking rice, and swore that they had no dissent.

Where would Zhao Fengxian believe them, but he didn't bother to pay attention to them, and when anyone in the future couldn't bear to jump out, he just used it to punish him, so that others would know his thunder methods and understand that he was not joking.

"In addition to this True Qi cultivator, there are also True Qi Saws, True Qi Scythes, True Qi Cars, and True Qi Boats, which are very convenient to use, far beyond your imagination, but the premise is that you have True Qi. In addition, let me tell you a good news, in addition to the six Dao coins used to buy these true qi tools, they can also be used to buy the exercises and pills of this sect, although they are all inferior exercises and inferior pills, but it is not a problem for you to become an enemy of a hundred people, or to prolong your life for five or six years. ”

......

"The way of the world is about to change. ”

Seeing the immortal chief talking in the crowd, Blacksmith Zhang suddenly said such a sentence.

Da Niu asked puzzledly: "What, Uncle Zhang, what do you say the world is going to change?"

Blacksmith Zhang didn't answer, but turned his head to look at the youngest son who was following him, and sighed: "Da Zhong, I'm sorry for you, I want to give the first batch of places to your eldest brother, and after a few years, no one will ask for the farm tools forged by our family, only by letting your eldest brother learn the true qi and learn to forge these true qi tools, can our family live." ”

Zhang Dazhong showed a trace of regret, but he still nodded obediently: "I listen to my father." ”

"I've wronged you, but it's not okay, only your eldest brother has learned the skills of the family heirloom, alas, this world is going to change greatly......"

Blacksmith Zhang let out a long sigh again, his face showing a deep dazedness.
