Wang Shichui's two dull disciples pointed at Kang Long somewhat dully, not knowing what to say. Especially Tiebao, who pointed at Kang Long with a big hammer, looking very funny.
"Brother Iron Leopard, do you want to hit me?" Kang Long joked.
Iron Leopard raised the hammer nonchalantly and scratched his head. Kang Long let out a chuckle and laughed. Iron Leopard's black face instantly turned purple. He hurriedly hid the hammer behind his back and said calmly: "Hey, hey, that, hey hey.
, it’s Brother Kang. Why are you here?”
Wang Shichui was startled. He grabbed Kang Long and stretched his head to look outside for a moment. Then he carefully closed the door and lowered his voice and said, "My nephew, how dare you come here? Did you come in from the lobby?"
Does anyone recognize you?"
Kang Long was a little moved. He was now wanted by the entire Fu family. Wang Shizhui must have gotten the message, but he didn't ask him what happened, nor did he cry out to arrest him. Judging from his expression, he clearly wanted to protect him.
"Uncle Wang, don't worry. I jumped over from the house and no one saw me. What's wrong, I have become the sworn enemy of the Fu family now. Uncle Wang, you still dare to see me?" Kang Long looked at Wang Shichui and the others with a smile.
.
"Brother Kang, how did you do that?" Wang Sanyan said suddenly after holding his eyes for a long time.
Ever since Kang Long came in, he had been picking his toes. If Wang Shichui hadn't screamed in surprise, he would probably still be picking his toes now.
But I don't know what the idiot was thinking, and he suddenly asked such a meaningless question.
"How did you do it?" Kang Long was a little confused.
"One thousand taels of silver, how did you do that?" Wang Sanyan put the hand that had touched his toes under his nose and kept smelling it, as if he was enjoying it very much.
"You bastard! Do you still want to snitch and get the reward?" Wang Shichui raised his hand and slapped him hard on the head. He glared and shouted in a low voice, "I'll beat you to death, you worthless thing!"
"Ouch, uncle, why did you hit me! I just want to know how Brother Kang managed to get his master to spend a thousand taels of silver to catch him. I also want someone to spend money to catch me!" Wang San covered his eyes.
Head, he said aggrievedly.
"You - you poor guy!" Wang Shichui raised his hand and wanted to slap him again. This poor guy actually had this kind of intention.
Kang Long was a little dumbfounded. Damn, this guy is really top-notch. He actually envied himself being arrested by the Fu family with money.
It's no wonder that Wang Sanyan is envious. He has never seen what ten taels of silver look like in his life, let alone one thousand taels of silver.
Since the fall of the Tang Empire, the world has been in chaos. No matter the heroes or powerful families, they all hide gold, silver and other money and treasures in secret rooms, fearing that they will be robbed or stolen.
Most of what is circulating in the market is some treasure banknotes or copper coins. These treasure banknotes are mostly issued by some emerging banks, but they are only circulated in the homes of wealthy families or officials, and are not seen by ordinary people.
Copper coins are the most commonly used currency by people. However, nowadays Buddhism and Taoism are prosperous. Most of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Three Qing Dynasties and Four Emperors enshrined in various temples and Taoist temples are made of wrought copper. This has resulted in most of the waste money circulating in the world.
.
These waste coins look like copper coins on the surface, but they are actually made of metals such as pig iron or lead.
Ordinary people all use Tongbao copper coins to trade, and it is difficult to see the true appearance of gold and silver.
Kang Long smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Three Eyes, please stop making fun of me. I'm hiding here and there now, how can you still be envious of me? By the way, Uncle Wang, if my nephew wants something, he just needs to get that rhombus needle quickly."
Just make the darts and leave the rest for later." Seeing Wang Shichui's sincerity, Kang Long didn't want to stay here any longer, lest disaster spread to them.
"So that's it. Don't worry, if you just use this caltrop needle dart, you can be cured in at most half a day. Nephew Kang Xian, I would like to ask, you really had a falling out with that guy from the Fu family because you were fighting for a woman.
, arrested by the Fu family?" Wang Shichui asked puzzledly.
"Uncle Wang, you will naturally understand what is going on in the future. Don't ask questions now, just build what I need. I wonder how soon it will take five hundred of these diamond needle darts to be produced?"
Wang Shichui saw that Kang Long seemed to have something to hide, so he stopped asking. He believed in his own opinion that Kang Long was by no means a bad person, so he glanced at Tiebao and Wang San before saying, "What if it's the old man and the two idiots like me?"
Disciple, two hours is about the same."
"Very good! Brother Wang, Tiebao, and Sanyan, thank you for your hard work. Please do not reveal any information about me no matter what, otherwise, it will be very detrimental to you. As the saying goes, money moves money.
"People's hearts, I, Kang Long, will remember the kindness and righteousness of the three of you, but others may not be as loyal as you, and they may take the opportunity to attack you. Remember!" Kang Long said to the three of them extremely seriously.
Wang Shichui was in trouble anyway. After a little guessing, he understood what Kang Long meant. His face changed slightly, he nodded solemnly, and repeatedly explained to his two apprentices, then he said: "In this case, let's start work now.
.”
The three of them went to work as they were told. Iron Leopard opened the bellows and blew hard to raise the fire to the highest temperature. Wang Sanyan selected two pieces of fine iron mother from the iron embryos nearby and threw them into the iron furnace for calcining.
Wang Shichui stared at the iron embryo gradually turning red in the fire with a solemn expression. This diamond needle dart seemed simple to make, but in fact it was extremely demanding.
Not only does it require a good iron embryo to be used as a mother, it must be repeatedly calcined and beaten until the excess impurities in the iron embryo are hammered out, and then wire drawing is performed to draw the fine iron into a steel wire of moderate thickness, and then cut, hammered, and forged.
, quenching, grinding, shaping, and a series of tedious processes, no mistakes can be made in any link.
Kang Long and Wang Shichui greeted each other, opened the door lightly, and rushed out.
Master Wang Shichui and his apprentice did not even look at Kang Long's departure. These three masters and apprentices were all blacksmiths who were obsessed with forging iron. Once they entered the state, they would be as blind as deaf to the outside world. They were also considered three men.
A strange person.
Two hours later, Kang Long came back and saw five hundred needle darts piled neatly on the table, and he felt refreshed.
Although the three masters and apprentices looked a little exhausted, they were extremely energetic. After all, this was the first time they had done this. Being able to complete it on time and successfully was considered a proud work. Wang Shichui touched the rough forehead.
The short beard said: "Niece Kang Xian, fortunately you have lived up to your destiny!"
Kang Long was holding a cloth bag in his hand, which looked bulging. He put it on the table and said, "Uncle Wang, here are five hundred taels of silver. Keep it. If you have time, I hope to make another batch for my nephew."
Diamond needle dart. In addition, I hope you can continue to build several other weapons."
Tiebao and Wang Sanyan didn't pay too much attention at first. When Kang Long said that there were five hundred taels of silver in the cloth bag, their eyes widened and they looked straight at the cloth bag.
It's not that these two idiots are greedy for money, but that they have never seen what a large piece of silver looks like in their lives.
Wang Shizhui's face darkened and he said unhappily: "My nephew, what are you doing? Since the old man promised you to beat these guys, he didn't want your money. Besides, these things were promised by the Fu family in the first place, so the money is also responsible for it.
They're out. Anyway, the whole shop belongs to them, so what's the big deal? Just put the money away quickly."
Kang Long smiled and said nothing, took a special animal skin bag, put all the five hundred diamond needle darts on the table into the bag, and then said: "Uncle Wang, don't delay. If you don't accept it, my nephew will be able to do it in the future."
I don’t dare to come to you to build a guy anymore.”
Wang Shichui puffed his beard and glared, looking at Kang Long with a sincere face, but he immediately laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, old man, I haven't touched the hammer for more than ten years, but this time I am tempted by these things you painted, I will give you the money
I'll take it now, it's just the deposit you paid. If you need anything good in the future, just come to this old man."
Kang Long laughed and said, "I'm sure, my nephew is still worried about other people's workmanship. I'm leaving, please remember what I just said."
Wang Shichui nodded and saw that the two apprentices were still staring at the cloth bag. He kicked the two of them on the buttocks and shouted: "You're worthless!"
Tiebao and Wang Sanyan scratched their heads and laughed, they were really naive.
After leaving the iron shop, Kang Long ran up and down all the way towards the south city gate.
Not long after he left, an ordinary-looking man in Tsing Yi suddenly appeared at the door of Fu's Iron Shop. Looking at Kang Long's back, he said in a low voice: "Strange, why did he go to Fu's Iron Shop?"
The man in green suddenly took out a black feathered bird from the bamboo basket at his waist, tied a letter on the bird's leg, and threw it into the air. The feathered bird flew high into the sky like an arrow, went straight to Beicheng, and disappeared.
.
After releasing the feathered bird, the man in green turned around and flew away in the direction Kang Long left.
