Cultivation of Immortals starts from the blacksmith shop

Chapter 41 Introduction
Huang Li took Lu Qi away.

Leave behind the envious crowd.

Looking at Lu Qi's leaving back, Jia San felt a trace of resentment in his heart.

He felt that if it wasn't for Lu Qi, he wouldn't be slapped. If it wasn't for Lu Qi, he would be able to squeeze out the few families he had captured.

Now, acquitted.

He has no hair at all.

No.

Can't accept fate.

Jia San took several neighbors out of the county office, but the shackles have not been removed.

Uncle Shitou and the others were full of doubts and worries, "Third Master, Huang Botou said we were innocent, why didn't you help us remove the chain?"

Jia San slapped him and said, "You bastard, you just go as soon as you say? The men ran a trip and brought you here under the sun. If you don't give me some money for tea and money, you just want to go directly. gone?!"

Tea money? !

Lost money? !

The neighbors were dumbfounded.

Uncle Shitou was even more surprised: "Third Master, you arrested us by mistake, and you want us to pay you if you let us go?"

"Snapped!"

Another slap.

Jia San poked Uncle Shitou's stomach with the handle of the knife, causing him to back away in pain, "What mistaken arrest? What mistaken arrest? Did I miss it when I arrested someone?!"

"Tell you, the death of Wang Butcher's family is inseparable from you. You can't kill Wang Liang and other warriors, and it is still possible to kill their family. Now, if you want to go back, you can pay the money, damn it!"

Snapped!
He slapped him backhand again, and Uncle Shitou fainted from the slap.

Uncle Shitou's family panicked and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy, while Aunt Shitou cried for money.

"How much, how much? Third Master, please stop beating and spare us."

"Third Master, we'll give it to you. Please don't hit me."

Jia San snorted, "Wouldn't it be over sooner?"

Then he ordered the left and right to take away all the money from the neighbors, and at the same time asked them to write three-dollar IOUs, which should be returned within seven days before they were released.

"Remember, if anyone dares to chew his tongue in front of Lu Qi, I will pull out his tongue." Jia San threatened.

The neighbors shrunk their necks in fright and left with their heads down.

Within the county government.

Lu Qi followed Huang Li and passed through three gates all the way. Even with Huang Li leading him, he was still searched once, and finally reached the house.

There is a large courtyard, and there are two groups of people guarding the door.

Huang Lidao: "This is an important place for the county government. Household houses, government houses and official houses are all inside. Fireworks and weapons are strictly prohibited. After entering, no loud noises are allowed."

Lu Qi made a note secretly, and then followed Huang Li to enter the main courtyard. There were many people inside, including officials and healthy women, as well as cooks and official slaves.

But these people walked with their heads down, and when they saw Huang Li coming, they lowered their heads even more, murmured "Huang Butou", and walked quickly.

Lu Qi said: "Isn't fireworks strictly prohibited? Why are there still cooks?"

Huang Lidao: "For outsiders, fireworks are strictly prohibited, but the officials who are on business here will not be able to bear it if they don't eat or drink all day. Naturally, there must be cooks passing meals, and official slaves to serve them. "

Lu Qi was speechless for a while, the evil feudal society.

at last.

Before the two arrived at a simple house, the doorway was one foot and three inches. It was a little loose for one person to enter, but it was not acceptable for two people to sit side by side.

There is a sign of a household at the door, and there are only two tables and a few chairs inside.

The house is small and can accommodate seven or eight people to work.

Seemingly aware of Lu Qi's doubts, Huang Li explained: "Six rooms are all doing things for the people, and extravagance and waste are not suitable, so the office space is as long as it can be settled, not luxurious."

Lu Qi glanced at the table, besides the copybook, there were also teapots and several plates of pastries.

On the promenade, cooks and official slaves entered some rooms one after another carrying some dishes, and someone even entered a certain room with a jug of wine.

He sighed in his heart, "This is so unpretentious."

"Huang Datou, how many times have I told you, a vulgar person, don't make noise outside, you just don't listen, do you want me to read you a book in front of the county lord?"

There was an energetic voice in the room, and upon hearing it, Lu Qi felt that this person was quite capable.

It was able to attract the Qi in his dantian a little bit, but fortunately, he suppressed it immediately, without any abnormality.

Huang Li stood outside, laughing loudly and said: "Master, I introduced talents to you, and you still blame me, it's just unreasonable."

After speaking, he directly pulled Lu Qi into the room, and the room soon became very crowded.

Two knife and pen officials immediately went out to make room for them.

Only then did Lu Qi see the layout inside.

A table is attached to the wall, and there are four places on the side. Now, except for two people, there are still two officials in their 50s and [-]s drinking tea and reading documents.

There is also a yellow rosewood table inside, facing the direction of the door, and behind the yellow rosewood table sits a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a Tsing Yi and a mustache, shaking a fan and looking at the documents.

A pot of tea was brewing beside it, and a pile of paperwork was piled up.

Seeing Huang Li and two people come in, he put down the paperwork.

The middle-aged man was the second-in-command master in power in Qianye County. He glanced at Huang Li and said, "Huang Datou, who are you bringing here?"

Before Huang Li could say anything, Lu Qi cupped his fists and saluted.

He is a warrior and a master, so he doesn't need to bow down.

Huang Li explained with a smile: "Master, this is Lu Qi, the master master of Lu Ji Blacksmith Shop. He is making low-quality swords and axes for my county government, a total of thirty."

The master said: "There are many masters working for my county government."

Huang Lidao: "The master doesn't know something. Master Lu is different from others. He fights thirty low-grade weapons in 30 days."

The master looked at Lu Qi right now, and the other two official scissors and writers also stopped and looked at Lu Qi, seeming a little curious, who is so desperate and so daring.

It is very rare for an ordinary master to be able to make ten low-grade knives in a month, and he even has to rest for ten days and a half months after he is finished. He did the work of three others in a month? !
The master said: "Yes, young and promising."

Lu Qi clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, master, for your compliment. It is my honor to be able to work for the county government."

The master said: "The county government does not compete with the people for profit, Huang Datou, the wages must not be less."

Huang Lidao: "Master, don't worry, it's indispensable. The market price is fifteen yuan a handful."

The master nodded, and the two knife and pen officials had strange eyes.

The manual fee of fifteen qian is a matter of the year of the monkey. Now the price of low-grade knives has increased by four or five times, and the wages have also increased by at least three or four times.

Just like that, no one can be recruited.

Huang Li even said that it was indispensable!
Isn't this bullying?
Lu Qi was thoughtful.

The master said: "Okay, it can be regarded as doing something for the county government, work hard, and I can't treat you badly."

Huang Li followed suit and said: "Master, you are right, we can't let him suffer, but his shop is about to expire, and there is no place to live, I wonder if we can arrange a place for him to live on Shenlong Street, When building weapons for us, is it also convenient to protect?!"

Master frowned and said, "If that's the case, why not?"

Huang Li smiled and said: "Master, Shenlong Street is covered by our county government, and it is also convenient for supervision."

The master said: "Zhang Qian, is there a combination of residential houses and empty bunks in Shenlong Street?"

A knife and pen official hurriedly got up, "No. 76, Ninth Lane, Shenlong Street, there happens to be a vacant room. It belongs to the previous team leader. The team leader died while supervising the mine. The family sold the house the day before yesterday, and they want to take the child back to her mother's house." , is still empty, no one takes over.”

The master said: "Then number 76."

This combination of houses and bunks is not cheap, and the former owner is still an official, which is even more expensive.

Therefore.

Even if someone is interested, they may not be able to afford the money.

Huang Li wanted to refuse because it was expensive.

Lu Qi bowed to thank him, "Thank you, master."

Huang Li panicked, "Brother Lu...Master Lu, No. 76 is expensive, and it's surrounded by merchants, so I can't protect you..."

Lu Qi clasped his fists and said, "Huang Butou, I am beyond grateful to have a place to live in. How dare I ask for it?!"

Huang Li sighed and felt that it was true.

The master looked at Lu Qi with a hint of surprise.

Wei Wei nodded and said: "No. 76 is not cheap, at least 30 taels of silver, can you afford it?"
