Chapter 182

Chapter 182: Friends

The next morning.

At the beginning of Mao Shi,

At about five o'clock in the morning, Lin Yi got up and started practicing. When the two little girls heard the noise, they got up and wanted to serve. Lin Yi had already put on his clothes.

training ground,

It’s still the same route as yesterday.

First do a few punches and kicks to warm up, then practice each with swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks a few times, and then archery. The whole process takes about an hour.

The foundation of this body is not bad, it is tall and healthy, but Lin Yi knows that this alone is not enough. He must first train this body to its best, and add a 200% bonus to the physical fitness, then the combat effectiveness will be absolute

Not vulgar.

After breakfast,

Lin Yi did not go directly to the study room to read.

Instead, he took his servant Youcai to the street. When he went out, everyone in the Lin house breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the master was still the same master.

Not crazy.

Lin Yi's performance yesterday and today really frightened the people in the mansion. As the saying goes, there must be a monster when something goes wrong. The old man only knew how to have fun before, but now he suddenly worked hard to practice martial arts and study. They would not think it was Lin Yi's sudden change, but fear.

He has gone mad.

They are servants of the Lin Mansion. Their wealth and life depend on Lin Yi. Of course they don't want to see anything happen to the master.

Not to mention that Lin Yi was pretty good to them on weekdays.

It’s just that after leaving the Lin Mansion, I’m afraid it will be difficult to find such a relaxed and peaceful life. Don’t think Chunmei and Xiuer are tired of serving people. In fact, there are many people outside who are more tired and miserable than them. They can stay in Lin Yi’s house.

There is already so much happiness around me.

Lin Yi went out this time,

There is only one thing,

purchase.

His current system space is 20 cubic meters, and he is used to it being full and taking out emergency supplies at any time, but now he always feels uncomfortable when it is empty.

They came to a wine shop, where all kinds of drinks were available. Lin Yi was thirsty and drank a bowl of glutinous rice wine. It was sweet and mellow. It is said that Wu Song drank sweet rice wine when fighting tigers in Jingyanggang. I don't know whether it is true or not.

"Is there still wine at home?" Lin Yi asked Youcai.

"Yes, they are kept in the warehouse."

"The wine here is pretty good. Bring five jars of each and ask them to deliver it to our warehouse." Lin Yi ordered.

When the shopkeeper heard that Lin Yi wanted so much, he was overjoyed and said, "I will send someone to deliver it to Mr. Lin. If you want so much, I will give you a discount."

Lin Yi waved goodbye.

Came to a weapons shop.

This world is slightly more relaxed than the Song Dynasty in history in prohibiting weapons. The prohibition on weapons stipulates that anyone who secretly hides crossbows and armor is guilty of a felony. In addition, other weapons are more open. Of course, the quantity is still limited.

.

In the weapons shop, whenever he likes something, Lin Yi will pick it up and try it out and ask about the price. To be honest, the weapons are not cheap. An ordinary simple knife costs 500 coins for 4 guns, and 6 guns for a big rosewood gun.

In terms of money, a sword for cutting horses costs about 10 guan, an ordinary stone bow costs 5 guan, a well-made large horn bow costs more than 20 guan, and an arrow costs 50 guan.

To equip an army, at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are needed. If a man fires 10,000 arrows, 500 taels of silver are gone. No matter it is ancient or modern, so fighting means fighting for money. Without money, you can't even buy weapons and arrows.

"This, this, this, yes, and this, this"

Lin Yi looked over from beginning to end.

I asked for two swords, five long knives, three large spears, two long-handled broadswords, some daggers, some willow leaves, darts, and some iron caltrops.

You need three large bows, ranging from one stone to five to three stones.

"Arrows, let's get a thousand of all kinds of arrows." Lin Yi said in a relaxed tone.

The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva,

He was both happy and nervous.

Naturally, I was happy because I sold more and got more commissions. I was nervous because I thought, isn’t this person going to rebel? He wants so many weapons.

If you rebel, you will be implicated.

"Okay, send these to Lin's house and pay then." Lin Yi said.

"Okay, sir, I will arrange for it to be loaded into a car and sent to your home." The shopkeeper nodded and bowed.

After walking for a while,

Come to the blacksmith shop,

This time Lin Yi had something they needed to build, so he called the blacksmith and handed him the blueprint in his arms, "Can this be made?"

The blacksmith looked at the drawings,

"able."

"Okay, let's get five sets of the same things in the picture. How much do you think they will cost?"

The blacksmith thought about it for a while and set a price. Lin Yi did not bargain and paid the bill directly. Finally, he gave the order: "Send it to Lin's house after it is finished."

The things Lin Yi built are nothing new. They are just some flying hooks, claws, pulleys and the like, which are convenient for moving up and down. There is no such thing as lightness in jumping a hundred meters in this world, but it does not hinder the use of tools.

There are also some small bits and pieces.

Such as lock picking tools.

In addition to these, there are some parts, which the blacksmiths cannot understand even if they look at them. Later, Lin Yi will ask the carpenter and leatherworker to make something respectively.

After making it and putting it together, they will see someone flying like a big bird in the sky.

That's right,

It's just a hang glider.

Essential for escape.

next house,

Lin Yi came to the fireworks shop. Fireworks had already taken shape in the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, they were more mature. You can see fireworks performances at various festivals. There are also many poems describing fireworks. The most famous one is 'A thousand trees bloom with flowers on an east wind night.

The more it blows down, the stars are like rain'.

Lin Yi came to the fireworks shop not to set off fireworks at night, but to make bombs.

"These firecrackers, these fireworks bombs, the same two baskets were moved to Lin's house." Lin Yi pointed to the fireworks he was interested in.

These are not usable now and need to be processed by Lin Yi.

Passing by the Four Treasures Store of the Study, Lin Yi bought another batch of pens, inks, paper and inkstones. He also has these in his study, but they are not used often. This time he passed by and bought a batch of new ones.

This trip took most of the day, and we all ate out at noon. When Lin Yi came home in the afternoon, he found that all the things had been shipped back, and the waiters were waiting at home to pay the bill.

When they saw Lin Yi coming back, they all respectfully called Lin Daguan.

Lin Yi took out a large bag of silver coins from the house and said to the guys: "I don't have enough copper coins to pay. How about paying the bill with silver coins?"

"Okay, of course the silver is no problem." The guys nodded.

There was very little silver produced in the Song Dynasty, and there was not much silver from outside, so silver has always been a scarce commodity. The circulation of the entire society mainly relied on copper coins, and some iron coins. Later, paper money was issued.

It's not that the Song Dynasty didn't want to use silver, but there wasn't that much. Silver often only appeared in official transactions and large-scale transactions, and Lin Yi paid with silver, which made these merchants more willing than paying with copper coins.

Things were piled up in half of the warehouse. The servants didn't know what the master was going to do and didn't dare to ask. Lin Yi went in and walked around by himself, put the things into the space, and locked the door of the warehouse when he came out.

As for the servant's suspicion,

They didn't even have the qualifications to ask.

Continue to practice martial arts and study.

When he had time to change his mind, he made some small things in his room, such as bombs or something. The black powder was not powerful enough and was granulated. Later, he planned to get some nitroglycerin, which is a good medicine for treating myocardial infarction and angina pectoris.

Within two days, the blacksmith delivered flying claws, pulleys, iron parts, and two boxes of various iron pieces, iron needles, and thin hooks, specially used for unlocking.

All locks in this era are mechanical locks. Lin Yi has a systematic lockpicking skill bonus. Coupled with these tools, I am afraid that no lock in the world can stop him.

He also asked Youcai to buy a large number of ropes of different thicknesses, put them in the warehouse, and put them into the warehouse the next day.

As for what these things are used for, I don't know yet, so be prepared.

The hang glider is also assembled. The wooden frame is carried on the back, and there is a black leather wing on each side. When you pull hard, the wings open to more than two feet. It looks like an oversized bat. If a Westerner saw it, he would probably scream that the devil is coming.

Bar.

While reading.

Lin Yi can also practice calligraphy.

Originally, Lin Yi's calligraphy was very immature and he could only read what he was writing. Lin Yi opened the system panel.

Purchase skills directly.

"Ding~ The player purchased the 'Calligraphy' skill and spent 500,000 taels of silver."

Grind ink.

pick up pen,

Lin Yi started writing on rice paper.

After acquiring calligraphy skills, his calligraphy was now approaching mastery and mastery, but he still chose one main person to imitate, and that was Zhao Mengfu.

Before he practiced calligraphy in college, his main imitation object was Zhao Mengfu. He liked Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy very much. It is beautiful on the outside and strong on the inside, tactful and fluent, good at all five styles, and the brushwork is smooth. Zhao Mengfu was the first calligrapher in the Yuan Dynasty, one of the four masters of regular script, and a cursive calligrapher.

The seal scripts are all perfect, and one of the ten masters of ancient calligraphy must be one of them. He is known as the master of calligraphy after the two kings.

Although Song Huizong was also a master of calligraphy, his ranking in history was far lower than that of Zhao Mengfu. Zhao Mengfu was also a member of the old Zhao family, and was the tenth grandson of Qin Wang Zhao Defang, the son of Song Taizu.

I wrote a simple word.

"A man should kill, and kill without mercy. The eternal destiny is all in killing. In the past, there were heroic men who were loyal and loyal."

A song for a man.

More than five hundred words.

What Lin Yi wrote was so heartfelt.

Put down the pen.

Look at the writing on the table.

I have to compliment myself on how good it is.

I feel more comfortable.

However, these words cannot be seen by others now. After drying, Lin Yi directly puts the words into the space.

Just as Lin Yi put away his words, Chunmei came in from outside and said, "Sir, Uncle Ying and Uncle Xie are here to see you. They are in the front hall."

As soon as Lin Yi heard this, he knew that the so-called Uncle Ying and Uncle Xie were Duke Ying and Uncle Xie, two of Lin's best friends.

Depend on,

More like Ximen Qing.

Lin Yi came to the front hall. The two guys were drinking tea and chatting. When they saw Lin Yi coming out and standing up with a smile, Earl Ying asked: "I haven't seen my brother out for three or five days. I just asked my servants what they said about my brother.

I have been diligently practicing martial arts and studying, but is it really true?"

Lin Yi sat down beside him and said, "It is indeed true."

The two guys were shocked, "Brother, what's going on? Is it possible that you've been possessed by evil spirits? Do you want us brothers to take you to Sanqing to watch it?"

"Go away." Lin Yi cursed.

The two guys shrank their necks.

"That morning I came out of the Peach Blossom Pavilion and walked on the street looking at all the living beings. Suddenly I felt that life is just like this. I eat, drink, play and listen to music every day. It seems that I have no pursuits other than these. So why did I come to this world?

What’s the point.”

"I couldn't figure it out. I went home and thought about it for a long time, and suddenly I figured it out. I plan to walk forward and climb up to see the broader world and the beautiful scenery higher up."

Lin Yi's words stunned the two guys for a long time.

Earl Ying suddenly said: "Brother has had an epiphany."

Xie Xidao: "Today we are here to call you brother. We originally planned to go to Goulan to listen to music first, and then go to the gambling house to have some fun. In the evening, we will find an oiran to accompany us for drinks at Guiyue Fang. Now, brother has an epiphany about life, leaving me to shame and only knowing how to have fun. It's really

Ashamed."

Lin Yi stood up and said solemnly: "There is no conflict between establishing life goals and listening to music. The so-called balance of work and rest is an ancient saying."

Earl Ying and Xie Xi were very happy.

Lin Daguan was still their good brother, and the three of them went out together.

Speaking of these two people, Earl Ying's family originally owned a silk and satin shop. His father inherited the family business after his death, but due to poor management, his business went bankrupt. However, this guy was quick-witted and started pimping out people to earn intermediary fees.

He is very familiar with me on the street and is very smooth in his work. He is considered a useful person.

As for Xie Xida.

He was originally a second-generation official, and his father was an official of Qianhu in Qinghewei. Originally, Xie Xida was supposed to take over his father's position and inherit the position of Qianhu in Qinghewei. However, his parents died early and he was deprived of the opportunity to take over.

From then on he became a street helper.

Xie Xida is also a transparent person who doesn't get involved in things. Moreover, because of his father's relationship, he still has some connections in the county and can accomplish some things.

These two guys had been hanging out with Lin Yi before. To put it bluntly, they were eating his food, drinking his food, and making some small money from Lin Yi.

Lin Yi doesn't care about spending money.

Now he doesn't have the right manpower around him, but these two guys are still smart and can be brought around to do things and act as messengers.

The first station.

Listen to music on the hook.

And here, Lin Yi happened to meet someone he had inquired about before.

Zhang Yuanwai.
