Cultivation of Immortals starts from the blacksmith shop

Chapter 11

Fortunately.

Lu Qi nodded to Li Mu'er, and she quickly took a basin to pour over the chaff, and then quickly thanked her.

Aunt Niu still didn't enter the house, and she was just putting on a show, and it was meal time, if she wasn't delivering something, she shouldn't even show up, otherwise she would be hated.

After sending Aunt Niu away, Li Muer closed the door.

Lu Qi also repaired the roof. It looks crude, but it can be done for the time being.

Back at the house, I looked at the two eggs on the table, a large bowl of thick porridge with three catties of minced meat, and a bowl of gruel with a piece of pork head in it.

Looking at the wheat chaff in her hand again, Li Muer felt guilty for a moment.

"Lu Lang, we eat such a good food, but we still accept Aunt Niu's wheat chaff. It's too wrong. I heard that their family is not easy. The eldest son has gone to the mine, and the younger son is still waiting to be fed. It is said that Uncle Niu is also going to serve The corvee still thinks about us."

Lu Qidao: "If someone has good intentions, he will keep it. After you finish making the meat buns in the afternoon, you will leave some left over. Tomorrow, you will send two catties to his house, and then cut a catty of pork to take with you. In a few days, send the three catties of wheat bran back. .”

Sending it off tomorrow is because I am afraid of hurting the self-esteem of Aunt Niu's family.

Li Muer hesitated to speak, she felt that Lu Qi was being too generous again.

However, Lu Qi is such a person.

People respect me one foot, and I respect others ten feet.

Others can't open the pot anymore, and still think about him, this kindness must be repaid.

Lu Qi said: "Let's eat the morning food. Last night we had a hard time, and today we have a lot of work. Let's work quickly after eating."

Then he picked up the pot of meat porridge, and started to feast on it. Three catties of meat porridge, put two taels of meat, this is Lu Qi's order, after he breaks through, he will eat more.

Now at the Martial Arts Level [-] Bone Forging Realm, even after eating three catties of meat porridge, he is only half full.

Other warriors eat medicinal food, and the food has medicinal power, otherwise they would not be able to maintain their strength at all.

Now that the family is poor, Lu Qi just doesn't care about it for the time being, and he will improve even more in the future.

After eating the whole bowl of porridge, Lu Qi peeled another egg, threw it into his mouth, chewed it a few times before swallowing it, then drank a bowl of water, patted his stomach, and the water was full.

Now I have a six-point full, which is enough to work.

Just get up and go to blacksmith to complete today's task.

Li Mu'er was shocked and said: "Lu Lang, there is still an egg that I haven't eaten."

Lu Qi said: "Your, you eat."

Li Muer wanted to decline, but Lu Qi had already gone out.

No chance to rebut.

Li Mu'er was so moved that she peeled the egg carefully and blissfully, and put it into her mouth in small mouthfuls, tearing off the skin of the egg shell and eating it clean.

In the blacksmith shop.

Lu Qi started to pack his things and make preparations.

During the daytime, he needs to pretend to be at the level of an ordinary master. Calcining molten iron takes time and wastes iron materials, and wastes time forging and wastes iron materials.

In short, during the day, he is an ordinary master, how many hours it takes to make a low-grade standard knife, how many hours he has to work, how much iron should be wasted, no matter how distressed he is, he still has to waste it.

Only at night can he plan carefully.

"Master Lu, you got up pretty early."

A sleazy young man stepped forward to say hello, flipping through tools on Lu Qi's shop, with a faint smile on his lips.

Lu Qi recognized him, Brother Dao's dog leg.

She actually appeared the first time he opened the door, presumably she had been supervising him all the time.

Fortunately he was cautious enough.

He smiled and said: "Brother Dog, in order to complete the task assigned by Brother Dao, I naturally have to get up early to work."

The young man smiled and said, "That's right, I heard that you turned off the fire just before midnight last night, and the neighbors heard the sound of knives being sharpened in your shop, presumably you've already made a knife?!"

Lu Qi returned to the warehouse with a smile, and took out the low-grade knife he had made last night.

The neighbors around also came forward.

The young man's eyes lit up, he snatched it up and examined it carefully, he couldn't put it down, but he didn't dare to greed it after all.

Smiling, he returned the knife, cupped his hands, and became a little more polite, "Master Lu, you are so skilled, one knife in one night, and one knife in one day, if you think about it, ten knives in seven days is more than enough! "

Lu Qi said bitterly: "Brother Gou was joking. Last night, he worked hard and put his life into it before he typed it out. I will try to do more today, and I can do less at night."

The young man nodded and said yes with a smile.

Lu Qi can produce a low-grade knife in one night, he is definitely a veteran among the masters, and deserves respect.

And the young man also secretly thought that he was worthy of being an outcast of the Lu family, and that even a rotten boat has three catties of nails.

He didn't dare to embarrass Lu Qi, so he left quickly and wanted to go back and report to Brother Dao.

Neighbors came forward one after another, and Aunt Niu also led her youngest son to say hello.

"Master Lu, you have a great skill, keep at it, and life will get better and better."

Lu Qi smiled and nodded, "Aunt Niu, thank you for the chaff, otherwise I won't have the strength to work."

Aunt Niu grinned.

Although she is kind-hearted, it would be best if Lu Qi remembered her well.

The other neighbors were thoughtful, and they all understood that Lu Qi was a master, and his status was already very high, so it was time to curry favor.

But when they were asked to take out food to make friends, most of them shook their heads and denied it. They just said a few good words that were not painful, and then walked away.

Iron utensils are optional, but rice must be eaten.

In today's world, Judaomen has recruited all the strong men from every household, and left some settling expenses, which is not enough to eat, and let them exchange food for favors.

That's impossible!

But there are also people who are thoughtful and want to give it a try.

Some people also went back and asked their own women to get closer to Li Mu'er.

Lu Qi started his daily work. Forging iron during the day was boring. With his current strength in bone forging, he used an iron hammer to strike iron. Even if he hammered 360 times, it would be a piece of cake for Zhang Fei to eat bean sprouts.

However, he still forged hard, it was right to train his own concentration!

He has already seen that dog leg going and coming back, occasionally peeping at his side in the crowd with people in shifts, thinking about it, he is afraid that he will not work hard, or run away with money.

By the afternoon.

People from the county government came to inquire from house to house about the death last night.

An officer made violent inquiries all the way, and some neighbors didn't know why, and they were slow to answer, and they would get slapped.

Arrived at Lu Qi's family.

The messenger immediately changed his smile, "Master Lu, about the dead person on Chunqiu Street last night, some witnesses said that the person ran towards our street, did you hear the movement?"

Lu Qi sighed in his heart, he also knew this poor man. His surname was Jia, and he was called the third master. When he saw him in the past, he would always spit on him with contempt.

Now that he is a master, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

but.

Lu Qi saw through the ways of the world and said with a smile: "Go back to Mr. Jia, no, I was busy last night and fell asleep deeply."

The messenger hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be a master, dare not be a master, if Master Lu saves face, you can call Jia San."

Lu Qi said: "Brother Jia, I'm taking advantage."

Jia San was immediately happy, "Haha, it's my honor, good brother, good brother."

He looked at Lu Qi's shop-style knife, and said: "Brother, you have a standard knife, one at night and one during the day, and you will definitely be able to complete Brother Dao's task in seven days. Then, you will also help my brother and me."

Lu Qi cupped his hands and said, "Brother Jia has something to do, just ask."

"Fresh." Jia San hurriedly said: "You also know that the Judaomen has opened a new line, and our county government has also cooperated. Nowadays, there are many people serving corvee, and there are also many people working as laborers. Don't mention the corvee, and bring your own iron tools , but the vibrator must provide tools from the county government.”

He looked puzzled, and said: "The tools in the county are not enough. The county lord has assigned some tasks. Brother, I have nowhere to ask. I wonder if you are willing to help build one or two. You are indispensable for the manual money."

Lu Qi heard that, thinking about it, he could actually see that Jia San might not have tasks assigned by the county government, but he could take the initiative to pull tasks.

If it is completed, it will definitely be appreciated, and it is a great achievement.

Befriending him, Lu Qi, gave Jia San an opportunity.

Lu Qi also wants to make friends with people from the government. After all, he doesn't know much about this world, and there are many ways to get to know one more person.

What's more, he can steal iron materials, make horizontal knives, and sell favors, so why not do it.

He said: "Brother Jia, don't worry, if it's not difficult, I will definitely help you when I finish Brother Dao's task. However, brother, I have no money and I don't have iron materials. If there is a task, I need iron materials. As for the manual work Fee, Brother Jia will give you a [-]% discount based on the market price."

Jia San was overjoyed upon hearing this.

I went out to ask about the mission today. I thought it was a boring task, but I didn't expect to make friends with Lu Qi, and I was able to complete the iron tool problem that the county lord had a headache recently.

He hurriedly said: "It's not difficult, it's not difficult, it's definitely not difficult, hahaha, thank you brother, you are my reborn parents, you have solved my urgent need."

He didn't continue to ask, but hurried back to pick up the task.

……

After Jia San left.

Lu Qi continued to strike iron, waiting for his own night to come.

The neighbors all had complicated expressions, and the neighbors on the left and right were full of admiration and envy.

It's really different.

In the 30th year of Hedong and the 30th year of Hexi, the Lu family has another unicorn!

Lu Qi is able to call Mr. Jia a brother, and wealth is just around the corner.
