Chapter 208 Selling Knives
After the scones were finished, Chai Qi came to report.

"I went to a house in South Bridge, and I talked to a water seller in the middle, and my subordinates have already asked people to follow."

Xu Yin nodded.

Xue Ru went to the new hiding place, so she naturally wanted to tell her master where she was staying.Everyone that their master and servant come into contact with now may be the eyeliner of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Okay, let's go back!"

It is enough to scare the snake once, but if you scare the snake too much, you will be scared out of your wits.

The coachman was about to return, when Xiaoman suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye: "Hey, isn't that the Second Young Master Yan?"

Xu Yin turned his head and looked, it was true.

Yan Ling didn't know what she was doing, she was sitting in a tea shed by the side of the road, drinking tea while staring at the other side.

Now that I saw it, it didn't seem right not to say hello.Xu Yin walked over and tapped on the table lightly.

Without moving her eyeballs, Yanling casually took out a piece of silver and threw it over: "Here is a plate of tea fruit."

This is to dismiss her as a mistress!

Xu Yin couldn't help laughing, and asked along the way: "What kind of tea fruit do you want? Red bean stuffing or mung bean stuffing? Peach blossom or plum blossom?"

"Whatever..." Yan Ling was halfway through speaking, suddenly felt that something was wrong, turned her head to look, and immediately burst into a smile.

He jumped up, his face full of surprise: "Why are you here?"

Xu Yin pointed to the other side of the street: "I just passed by to make clothes."

Yanling let out an "oh".

Xu Yin asked back: "What about you? What are you doing? Why do you look like you are watching?"

Just as Yan Ling was about to answer, someone came out from the opposite inn. He quickly sat down and pretended to drink tea: "I'll tell you later."

Xu Yin turned his head to look over, and was taken aback.

The man noticed something and looked up.When she found out that it was an astonishingly beautiful little lady, she immediately avoided her eyes, bowed her head to express her apology, and left quickly.

As soon as he walked away, Yan Ling immediately stood up and asked her: "I want to follow him, you..."

"I'll go too." After Xu Yin finished speaking, he turned his head and ordered, "Xiao Man, you stand by with the car. Xiao Sang, show the way."

"Yes." The two girls agreed.

Xu Yin put on the fence that Xiao Man handed over, and nodded to him: "Let's go!"

"okay."

The man Yan Ling followed was a man in his early thirties, with a handsome appearance and a tall and strong figure, he looked like a practicing family.

As he walked, he explained in a low voice: "This man is very good at martial arts. I met him on the street before and rescued a girl who was being molested. His skills are amazing! But he looks very depressed. I don't know what kind of trouble he encountered. .”

"You want to help him?"

Yan Ling nodded: "He himself is so down and out, but he still defies power, which shows that he is a kind and righteous person. Such a hero, now he is in peace, it is pitiful."

Hearing this, Xu Yin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.In this world, there really is no luck for no reason.

She recognizes that man, his name is Xue Yi, and he will be the great hero who will bring peace to the world in Zhao Kingdom in the future.

When Duke Zhao ruled the world, everyone said that the second son of Yan was lucky, and he got an inexhaustible general like Xue Yi, so that he overwhelmed his elder brother.

Xu Yin never believed this, one is luck, could it be that two or three are also luck?Most of the generals under the Yan family voted under the command of the second son of Yan. Do you really think that recruiting generals is the only way to buy watermelons?

Going back to the past now, encountering this historic moment with her own eyes also verified her thoughts.

Yanling is in a difficult situation now, and as a proton, her hands are tied in Beijing.If it were someone else, knowing that Xue Yi had offended someone, it might be better to do more than to do less, so forget it.But he took a look at Xue Yi and came to follow him himself.

They followed at a distance, but saw Xue Yi going all the way to West Market.

The flow of people in West Market is complicated, there are many merchants from other places, and there are also many low-level people.

Xue Yi turned around and finally stopped at a market.He sat down on the side of the street, took a piece of cloth and spread it in front, then pulled out the black knife in his hand two inches, and carefully put it on.

Yan Ling was taken aback: "Is he selling knives?"

"Obviously."

Xu Yin now has a wonderful feeling.The story about Xue Yi and the second son Yan has been circulated among the people.It is said that the second son of Yan visited the thatched cottage three times before he asked Xue Yi, a general.It is also said that the second son of Yan accidentally helped Xue Yi a favor, and only then did this good talk of knowing each other come about.

Now that she was at the scene in person, she finally knew what was going on.

It turned out that Xue Yi was so desperate that he wanted to sell knives, that's when he met the second son of Yan.

"This knife of his is rare," Yan Ling said softly, "Look at its shiny black blade, it is made of rare black gold, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it can cut iron like mud. This knife is at least worth a thousand gold. Eh, Why doesn't he go to the pawn shop? In such a market, no one can afford a thousand dollars."

This question was answered by Xiao Sang. She said, "Second Master Yan, it is impossible for a pawnshop to give a thousand pieces of gold, even a hundred pieces of gold. I will lower the price to death, and it would be nice to give a few hundred taels of silver."

"So that's how it is." Second Young Master Yan is young now and knows very little about folk affairs, so he only understood after hearing her say that.

"Are you going to buy a knife?" Xu Yin asked him, "If you don't have enough money, can I make it up for you?"

Yan Ling shook her head: "No need, big brother just sent a large sum of money, I still have enough money, that's..."

"You want to keep him."

Yan Ling smiled: "Such a hero, it would be a pity to miss it."

Xu Yin was not surprised at all.If Xue Yi is not left behind, there will be no second son of Yan who will later become a world-famous son.

While the two were talking, someone stopped in front of the stall.

"How much is this knife?"

Xue Yi raised his head and replied, "Five hundred gold."

Five hundred gold is 5000 taels of silver, and the annual salary of a first-rank court official is only 600 taels of silver. This huge amount immediately frightened others.

"Five hundred gold? You are stealing money!"

"That's right! What kind of precious sword do you use, is it so expensive?"

"Don't be a liar, are you?"

Xue Yi explained: "The black gold that casts this knife is extracted from the meteoric iron in the sky. It is hard to come by. If you meet a suitable customer, even a thousand pieces of gold will make it."

Hearing what he said, some people want to see it.

Xue Yi stretched out his hand to block him: "I love this knife like a treasure. If I hadn't been desperate now, I would never have sold it. You can look at the knife, but you can't touch it."

The man yelled: "What do you call it if you can't touch it? How do I know if what you said is true or not? Maybe it's made of scrap iron?"

"Yes! What you said is so powerful, you have to test it!"

There was a lot of noise here, and someone swaggered over there.

"Hey, isn't this a hero?" The young master stood in front of Xue Yi with a group of servants, "Last time, I pretended to be generous in front of my young master and rewarded him with ten taels of silver for singing. Why, are you short of money today? "
