In a small courtyard adjacent to Silver Moon Lake, the owner of the house, Wei Hao, was drinking and fishing alone under a tree.
This is his daily routine. He always comes here to take a short break after lunch every day, just to cultivate himself.
When Wei Gong walked in, he could vaguely hear Wei Hao's snoring, and the buoy floating on the water was floating up and down.
Wei Gong slowed down and walked slowly behind Wei Hao. He didn't want to disturb his adoptive father's rest, but unexpectedly, the fish in the water struggled too much and pulled the bamboo pole in Wei Hao's hand, waking Wei Hao from his sleep.
Wei Hao woke up and noticed someone behind him, and said leisurely: "It's Uncle Wen, what's the matter?"
Wei Gong bowed respectfully and put the wooden box and letters in his hands on the small table in front of Wei Hao.
He said: "Father, this is sent by Zhongdao. The person who came here also brought a verbal message, which needs to be told to you personally."
When Wei Hao heard that the letter was from his second son, he hurriedly reached for the letter, and then said: "Bring me here quickly. Cheng'er has been out for many days, and I don't know if his body and bones can still bear it. It's really hard on him."
Wei Gong responded and nodded towards the concierge outside the courtyard gate.
Not long after, Chengtou and Hao Zhao were brought over. When they walked into the yard, they happened to see Wei Hao opening the wooden box.
From what they could see, Wei Hao was startled for a moment, and then quickly closed the wooden box.
Wei Gong frowned slightly. He didn't dare to take a peek, so he asked curiously: "Father, has something changed?"
Wei Hao took a deep breath and then motioned for him to open it and take a look. Then he looked at Chengtou and Hao Zhao who were brought in, put on a smile that looked as amiable as possible, and invited: "You two young ladies, No need to be polite, friend, please take a seat quickly."
Two futons were placed in front of Wei Hao. In today's dynasty, it is still customary to sit on one's knees. There are also chairs, but they have not become popular yet.
Chengtou and Hao Zhao didn't dare to make excuses. After all, the person in front of them was a great scholar from Hedong and the famous leader of the Wei clan in Hedong. Chengtou and Hao Zhao cupped their fists and saluted, but they didn't even dare to say so.
But Wei Hao couldn't talk to them with his head raised. The concierge who led the way explained, and then Chengtou and Hao Zhao obediently sat down on their knees.
Wei Hao smiled with satisfaction and said to the porter: "Send some good wine and meat over here. I want to have a drink with you two."
Wei Hao mainly wanted to inquire about his son's situation outside, but also wanted to ask how Wei Cheng obtained the items in the box.
At this time, Emiya opened the wooden box, and the sunlight shined through the treetops on the objects in the box, and the reflected light reflected a colorful halo on Emiya's face.
"Jade crystal cup!" Emiya exclaimed in disbelief.
Wei Hao looked at the two of them and saw that they were disapproving. They were not surprised or curious about what was in the box. He already knew that Wei Cheng trusted the two of them, otherwise he would not have dared to let them Escort such a valuable thing.
In fact, Wei Hao didn't know at all that the ten glasses in the wooden box were just small wine glasses that Wei Cheng bought from the supermarket for 18.8, ordinary two or two glasses, the kind that can be deeply emotional and boring.
Taking advantage of the stall where the food and wine had not yet been served, Wei Hao asked many questions about Wei Cheng.
Both Chengtou and Hao Zhao knew everything, and talked about everything, but there was one thing they deliberately concealed, and that was the fact that they had captured more than 60 people in Hujiabao.
This was also Wei Cheng's explanation. After all, Hu Jiabao had an official background. If his family knew that he had offended people from Hu Jiabao, it would cause complications and disrupt his own plans.
Knowing that Wei Cheng was living well outside and sharing the supplies sent by his family with the villagers, Wei Hao nodded happily. As long as Wei Cheng was healthy, he didn't have much to worry about. As for just a few trucks of supplies, there was nothing to worry about. Just give it away after you get it.
"By the way, the young master has something that I must tell you personally."
Chengtou recalled Wei Cheng's explanation, pointed to the box and said, "Young master said that he wants the family to use the contents of this box to exchange for as much gold as possible. He said he has urgent need."
"Gold?" Wei Hao frowned slightly, "What's the use of Chen'er's gold?"
You must know that before the Three Kingdoms, gold was not so precious and had little economic status. People of this era were more willing to collect grain and cloth than gold.
Of course, gold has appeared very early, but due to its unique plasticity, the wealthy families generally use it to make jewelry and inlaid jade pendants, and have no idea of using it as money.
When Wei Hao saw that Zhengtou and Hao Zhao also looked ignorant, he knew that he couldn't get anything out of the question.
He turned to look at Wei Gong and asked: "Uncle Wen, please send half of the gold utensils stored at home. Since it is what Cheng'er needs, it must be of practical use, so don't neglect it."
Emiya nodded repeatedly, still immersed in the shock of the ten jade crystal cups.
As the face of the Wei family, Wei Gong had never seen anything before, but he was lucky enough to see this jade crystal cup only once in Luoyang, and there was only one of them. A scene like this with ten of them side by side was definitely not possible. Dare to think.
After regaining his clarity a little, Wei Gong suddenly thought of something, frowned and said: "Father, my little brother also said just now, what Zhongdao means is to take these ten jade crystal cups and exchange them for as much gold as possible."
Wei Hao was stunned for a moment, then looked at the wooden box reluctantly.
Wei Gong also felt a little regretful, but he still said: "Father, since Zhongdao asked my little brother to tell you this personally, he must be hoping that you can act according to what he said. If..."
Wei Hao raised his hand, interrupted him, sighed, and then said: "This brat is still so worried, so that's it. I'll leave this matter to you."
Wei Hao still respects his son. Since Wei Cheng has asked someone to explain it to him, no matter how much he likes the jade crystal cup, he will not take it as his own, even if he has to exchange it with his own gold. This is the principle question.
"Don't worry, foster father. Just ten jade crystal cups can be digested by our Hedong clan. Later I will go to the Chen family and the Xie family to ask, and the Sima family, I think they will also be very interested."
Wei Hao rolled his eyes and said angrily: "If Mr. Sima is interested, don't be polite to him. That old boy has a lot of good things in his hands, especially precious medicines that are thousands of years old. Just give me a few of them. Please replenish your body."
"Don't worry, foster father, I know what to do." Emiya smiled and cupped his hands.
This side of Haojia Village.
Wei Cheng and Hao Dadao went to see the place where yellow mud was collected, and immediately decided to ask the women in the village to take action and start collecting yellow mud. The more the better.
Hao Dadao also listened to some suggestions from Wei Cheng and recruited a few old guys to start building wheelbarrows to facilitate the transportation of mud and wood.
After arranging these things, Wei Cheng returned to the shabby room, and it was already sunset.
Hao Niang and Xiao'e had already prepared the meal. Cai Yan watched and learned from the side, and asked a few questions that she didn't understand from time to time, such as: how to control the heat, how to avoid burning the food, and why did you cook the steamed buns? It's big and white, but I'm as hard as a rock.
The torch lit in the yard was very bright. It was a torch made by Wei Cheng with pine oil. Four pillars were erected around the yard. A groove was dug on the pillar to facilitate the insertion of the lit torch. Under the pillar was
A small water jar to prevent water from escaping.
Although the brightness is not as bright as the light bulbs of later generations, it still has a unique charm, which makes Wei Cheng, who is used to seeing light shows, feel very novel. At the same time, the torch has a built-in lights-out function. When the fire goes out, it also means that it is time to go to bed.
After dinner, Wei Cheng took a shower and went to bed.
Cai Yan only thought that Wei Cheng was tired after a busy day, so he didn't bother him.
Little did they know that after Wei Cheng entered the house, he locked the door and disappeared.
···
Returning to modern times again, it still feels like a world away.
Wei Cheng picked up the charging phone on the table and looked at the time. It was still early, less than 8:30 pm.
He hesitated for a moment, then opened Dong Ge's store, chose a brand firefighting store and asked about the price of stab-proof clothing.
Better ones generally cost thousands, and ordinary ones are also available for seventy or eighty, but the effect is even worse by a thousand miles.
Wei Cheng chose a set of 680 tactical vests with added calf protection. Because he purchased a large amount, the merchant also gave him elbow pads, gloves, and knee pads, which shows how huge the profits are.
Wei Cheng bought one hundred sets directly, using five 2888 vouchers temporarily adjusted by the merchant, which cost 58,000.
Next came weapons. Wei Cheng also chose a brand store with a good reputation. At first sight, he fell in love with an eight-sided Han sword made of high manganese steel. The price of a single sword was 368. Wei Cheng needed a hundred of them, so the merchant immediately changed the price.
The price is 150 yuan per piece based on the ex-factory price.
This time he spent another 15,000, which made his already not very wealthy savings worse.
I originally wanted to buy a few compound bows, but after looking at them for a long time and understanding them, I felt that traditional bows were more practical, that is, the hardwood bows they seized from Hujiabao, so I decided not to buy them at all.
.
Wei Cheng turned to the previous knife seller and asked about the price of customized arrows. He learned that mass customization would cost only 15 yuan for a starting quantity of 500; 12 yuan for a starting quantity of 1,000; and 8 yuan for a starting quantity of 5,000.
Wei Cheng opened the China Merchants Bank APP, looked at his savings, gritted his teeth, and directly ordered 5,000 arrows. This time they were made of high-carbon steel. The style of the arrows was similar to a sharpened pencil head. What he was pursuing was a
The ultimate puncture effect.
The anti-stab suit cost 58,000 yuan, the Eight-sided Han Sword 15,000 yuan, and the arrows 40,000 yuan. A total of 113,000 yuan was spent. More than half of the deposit was gone. It seemed that it would be impossible if we didn't open up the source as soon as possible.
Wei Cheng shook his head helplessly, took the prepared liver-protecting pills and ointment, put on a set of casual clothes, tied up his hair, and put on a fishing hat to cover it up.
When he came to the supermarket, he wanted to ask Uncle Fang to help him send the things out, but he found that the person looking after the store was still Fang Xin.
Fortunately, the supermarket already had a mailing service. Wei Cheng filled in the recipient's information and address and handed the note to Fang Xin.
When he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by Fang Xin.
"Wei Cheng, my dad asked me to ask you if you are free on Saturday night. My grandpa is celebrating his birthday and everyone in the village has invited you, so I am leaving you."
Wei Cheng was stunned. The old man of the Fang family is quite old. He seems to have turned eighty in the past two years. I gave him some medicinal wine before, but I don't know if he has finished it. It should be fine at night.
I will send another bottle as a gift when the time comes.
So, he nodded: "Of course I'm free. The old man is celebrating his birthday, so I'm going to have a meal. I'll be there on time."
Fang Xin pursed her lips and said a little unhappy: "Then you remember, at 6 o'clock on Saturday night, we are at the Yunke Lai Restaurant in town."
Wei Qing nodded. She didn't know why she was unhappy. She thought she was having trouble with her boyfriend. She didn't want to bring trouble to herself. She walked out of the supermarket after saying that. Not wanting him to leave, Fang Xin was even more angry and stamped her feet on the spot.
.
She went to Wei Cheng's house every day to deliver breakfast to him these past few days, but unfortunately she failed to do so. It was rare to see me today, so she didn't want him to come on official business and leave with an indifferent expression.
The reason why a woman is angry is so strange. Wei Cheng doesn't even know that she delivers breakfast every day. If he knew, he would definitely apologize, but if she didn't say it, she would just be sulking there.
Opposite the camera above the supermarket door, the four elders of the Fang family sighed.
This silly girl deserves to be single.
It's rare to see me in person, wouldn't you say hello?
When someone comes to send something, you don’t use WeChat as an excuse. When you send something back, you might as well tell them!
How could I have given birth to such a stupid girl like you?
It seems that only us old guys can take action, and Saturday night is a good opportunity for the old man’s birthday.
Poor old man of the Fang family, his wonderful birthday party turned into a blind date party for his granddaughter.
After returning home, Wei Cheng was not idle. He just took the time to deal with the garbage that he had not had time to deal with in the Three Kingdoms.
Things like seasoning trademark stickers, finished juice bottles, and some soap boxes are all packed in garbage bags. This part is recyclable garbage and can be placed at the door of your home. Elderly people in the village will naturally come.
Take it and sell it.
While sorting these things out, Wei Cheng suddenly turned his attention to the box sent by the Wei family.
He didn't do much research on wood, unless it was wood and fruits that could be used as medicine, so for a while he couldn't tell what kind of wood this box was made of. But it looked different and seemed a bit different.
value.
After thinking about it, Wei Cheng took out his mobile phone, took a video and sent it to Moments.
He has been doing well in the industry in the past few years. Some of his customers are wood furniture manufacturers, so he must know someone.
Wei Cheng wrote in the circle of friends: "I just got the medicine box. I don't know what material it is made of. Does anyone know how to make it?"
I didn’t care after sending it and continued to deal with the garbage.
By the way, I also cleaned the house. I haven't lived in it for a few days and dust has accumulated again. I really need to buy a sweeping robot later. Otherwise, I have to clean it every time I come back. The key is that he doesn't live there himself.
He was busy until ten o'clock. After taking a shower, Wei Cheng changed into Hanfu, took a bundle wrapped in cloth, and walked through the balcony glass, returning to that turbulent era again.
Shortly after he left, the charging cell phone on the living room table lit up.
[Mr. Su of Ziyang Wood Industry: Hey, Mr. Wei, you can do it. Do you have high-definition pictures of the retro storage box made of pure nanmu? If it is made of golden nanmu, it would be worth a lot of money... Hey, Mr. Wei, are you there...
