Chapter 609
Zhangjiacun and Lijiacun are neighbors. Gu Qi led the horse through the canal at the entrance of the village and arrived at the adobe house after a few steps. Gu Qi stood at the door for a while. Wrong location, so he knocked on the door and asked, "Is Master Zhang there?"

More than half of the people in Zhangjia Village have the surname Zhang, but there is only one who can be called a master.

The sound of blacksmithing in the room paused, and after a while, a little boy poked his head out from the courtyard door: "Who are you looking for?"

"Is Master Zhang at home?"

"What are you doing with my grandfather?"

"I want to find Master Zhang to make a weapon."

When the little boy heard a flash of fear in the literal meaning of Weapon [-], he said vigilantly: "Grandpa said he doesn't know how to play weapons, so go away."

Gu Qi raised his eyebrows when he heard this, it seems that someone has already come to see Master Zhang before, and there was a lot of trouble.

When he was young, he didn't know how to hide things. He only thought that he could dissuade the outsiders who came to harass him by telling his grandfather that he couldn't do it, but he didn't want to expose the Zhang family's details.

"Son, I made a mistake just now. I didn't come to your grandfather to make weapons. I came to your grandfather to make iron pots."

The little boy looked at Gu Qi in surprise, showing an expression that you actually lied to the child.

"Master Zhang, we have newly built a stove at home, and we are short of two iron pots. Please, Master Zhang, help me." Gu Qi said as he opened the courtyard door that the boy wanted to close with one hand, and pinched the boy's chubby face with the other hand , Thinking: Three years of famine, a blacksmith nested in a small village in the back of the country, and he was able to make the younger generation of the family fat.

After a long time, a middle-aged man's voice came from the room: "Ah Li, bring me in."

Xiao Tong gave Gu Qi a hard look, and opened the courtyard door in response.

Zhang Peiwu has an ordinary appearance. He is in his thirties this year. Perhaps he has practiced martial arts all year round and is well maintained. Zhang Peiwu looks much younger than the average farmer with grandchildren.

At this time, Zhang Peiwu was sitting in front of the stone bench, glanced coldly at the young man in front of him, and said, "The yamen has regulations, and the registered blacksmiths receive a certain amount of iron ore every year. pot."

Gu Qi chuckled: "It doesn't matter, Master Zhang doesn't have one at home, isn't there a lot of them on the back mountain?"

Zhang Peiwu's face suddenly changed: "What are you talking nonsense about?"

"Whether what I'm saying is true or not, Master Zhang knows best."

The killing intent flashed across Zhang Peiwu's eyes: "I don't know what you said, I don't do business today, brother, please go back."

Gu Qi didn't care about Zhang Peiwu's murderous intent, but reminded: "I know that Master Zhang used to be very prestigious in the Jianghu, and the weapons made by Master Zhang attracted many people in the Jianghu.

However, today is different from the past. I believe that Master Zhang also understands the truth that "if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if the behavior is higher than the people, the crowd must be against it", so he brought his only grandson to a small place like Yuzhong to avoid disaster.

Is Master Zhang really willing to live here forever? "

Seeing that Zhang Peiwu didn't speak, Gu Qi continued: "What's more, even if Master Zhang is willing to retire here, being an ordinary blacksmith in the countryside is just wishful thinking."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I believe that I am not the first outsider to come here."

Zhang Peiwu was silent for a moment, Zhilai had already investigated his details thoroughly, so he didn't pretend to be any more, he just said: "Since you know that there are many people who come here to look for me, why do you think I will give it to you?" you go?"
