I'm really not the genius you think I am

Chapter 209 Exaggerated apprenticeship fees

Zhou Fangrui was originally quite curious about this matter.

Chen Xu's family is a combination of two families. Together, the two families are already quite large.And a young man who can make the other two bad old men extend an olive branch at the same time is definitely good.

At first glance, it looks really good.

The technique of wielding the knife is very pure and very comfortable. The young man who originally seemed very easy-going changed his temperament instantly after holding the knife, and he immediately felt like he was sharp.

"I just like this young man. What I hate the most is the guy who doesn't have much strength yet. He has two filthy rich people, and he starts babbling about custom-made top-notch knives. This kind of person can't even hold down a knife, and he still plays with it."

"A knife can never crush someone."

"One must always press the knife, otherwise the edge will be cut off by the knife. How can one fight against those monsters in the future?"

Zhou Fangrui watched Su Bei pick up the knife slowly. He was not in a hurry anyway.

Forge knives for young people like this.

He is happy.

He is happy.

When it comes to really liking him, it's not a matter of money. But when he reaches his status, he still lacks such a small amount of money?

Chen Xu listened warmly. The more others praised Su Bei, the happier he felt. Just kidding, Su Bei was his senior, and the senior who often gave him some advice. In terms of friendship, he was definitely the best.

at the moment.

It's like someone praising his alma mater for its strength: "So this time I'll bother you, Master Zhou."

Zhou Fangrui: "You're welcome."

After Su Bei tried for 5 minutes, two knives appeared in his hand, and he was obviously struggling with these two knives.

Zhou Fangrui took the initiative and walked over: "Su Bei, can I show you?"

Su Bei: "Okay."

He handed these two knives to Zhou Fangrui. Zhou Fangrui glanced at them briefly and said with a smile: "One is 1660 mm and the other is 1670 mm. Both are fierce chopping knives. Are you sure this is a long knife like this?" ?”

Su Bei: "Yes, I still hope that the single sword will be longer."

Zhou Fangrui: "Okay."

He wrapped several circles of gauze around one of the knives, and then handed the knife to Su Bei: "Feel it again."

Su Bei tried the knife.

Then his eyes lit up: "This is still comfortable."

Zhou Fangrui: "Well, the reason why you are hesitant between the two knives is because of the feel of the 1670 knife. After I helped you make a simple adjustment, you can immediately see the difference, right?"

Su Bei: "Master Guozhen."

Zhou Fangrui immediately smiled brightly: "Then let's go with 1670. And let me remind you that since this is your first time customizing a weapon, don't expect the first one to be the most suitable. It doesn't exist."

"Like a girlfriend."

"You think you two are suitable now because you haven't been together for a long time."

"After being together for a long time, many problems will be exposed."

"Only the second and third person can slowly understand what they want."

"Weapons naturally have the same principle."

"If you don't hate your first weapon, it's already pretty good."

"When you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you will have a second try, and then you will be able to completely find what you like."

Su Bei: "Understood."

The second step is to choose the knife length, and the natural choice is 1670 mm.

The third step is the knife width. After trying it, Su Bei chose 76 mm.

The fourth step is to choose a straight knife style.

The fifth step is to choose the golden pink color that macho men will choose.

A kind of pink with a golden-red color, very bright, like blood stained with golden powder.

Step by step, after the last step was completed, a knife with a pink blade and a black handle appeared on the pad in front of Su Bei.

At first glance, you can tell that this knife is not a good one.

As for the materials, Su Bei didn't know much about it. After listening to Zhou Fangrui's suggestion, the knife was estimated to weigh 98 kilograms.

This is about the weight of a girl.

I didn't expect it to be so heavy at the end.

Zhou Fangrui's meaning is very simple.

For things like knives, one must pursue the ultimate in lightness, light enough to float on oil.

Or pursue thickness, which can increase the lethality. A knife can easily weigh more than 1 ton.

Zhou Fangrui: "That's it. I will help you get this knife within a month!"

Su Bei: "Okay, thank you very much. Can I ask how much this knife costs now?"

Zhou Fangrui: "The material cost is 3000 million, the labor cost is 2800 million, a total of 5800 million, rounded up, 6000 million." Su Bei: "..."

Is there any such rounding?

There is really such rounding. For the guests, the 200 million is regarded as a gift to the master.

Don't say it's 5800, rounded up to 6000.

Even 5100 will be rounded to 6000.

There is no way, not any craftsman is qualified to help others forge knives.

When asking others for help, you also need to look at their attitude.

Not to mention that for warriors, they have already spent enough money. They really don't need these 200 million or several million dollars.

Chen Xu: "Senior brother, don't panic, I gave you this knife, but it's only 6000 million. Being able to get a weapon customized by Master Zhou is obviously a very exciting thing!"

Su Bei: "Okay, after all, I really can't take out these 6000 million."

He hasn't looked carefully at how much money Su Bei has now. It is estimated to be a little over 1000 million, definitely not enough than 6000 million.

The knife he used cost 600 million, and now a 6000 million knife comes in an instant, and he doesn’t know what the final result will be.

He maintained a cautiously optimistic attitude, and then Su Bei suddenly asked: "Master Zhou, can I watch your forging?"

Zhou Fangrui instantly turned to look at Su Bei.

The expression on his face instantly showed countless meanings: "What, you want to learn blacksmithing?!"

Su Bei said honestly: "Yes."

Zhou Fangrui: "Yes, if you come to me to learn forging, there will definitely be no problems at all. However, it still requires a certain assessment fee. My assessment fee is also very reasonable, only 1 million!"

Su Bei: "Uh."

Su Bei: "Excuse me!"

Chen Xu immediately said: "Brother, I will pay you!"

Su Bei: "No, no, I will do it myself when I have money. I have already received your favor this time."

Chen Xu: "No, it's just 1 million. I'll ask the old man for it!"

Su Bei: "No, thank you. It's me who underestimated the cost of studying. I was the one who was abrupt."

Zhou Fangrui laughed loudly: "First of all, it's not that my old Zhou charges too much, the market price is like this, and I don't want to mess around. Secondly, my old Zhou's level ranks 98th in the Knife Forging Guild."

"It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire Sword City, I am ranked 98th."

"I charge 1 million for the assessment fee. Of course it's not expensive at all. It's even the price of a favor."

Speaking of it.

Zhou Fangrui: "It's just that the bamboo is still straight at both ends, so you can speak on both sides separately."

"I'm quite optimistic about you. I can accept you first without paying."

"As long as you can pass my entrance examination, then I won't ask you a penny to get it."

"And I will teach you with all my strength."

"I accept you as a closed disciple. There will be no additional fees in the future."

"But if you fail my assessment."

"You have to give me 2 million, which counts as psychological trauma fees for me. What do you think? Are you brave enough?"

Su Bei understood what Zhou Fangrui meant, and he said seriously: "Sorry, I can't bet on something I can't afford. I'm not a talented person, so I will prepare 1 million in the future."

then.

Before Zhou Fangrui could say anything, a tall woman with a red headband appeared at the door of the store: "Su Bei, I'll teach you forging. What are you going to learn from this guy? He's not good at it!"

"come here!"

"I will give you the forging matters for free, and I promise to make clear arrangements for you, trust me!"

Su Bei turned around and wondered, did he know this woman?I don’t know him.

who is she.

Then when he found Qianyu walking out from behind the woman, he roughly understood, was this Qianyu's friend?
Zhou Fangrui shouted out directly: "Wow, Lin Qingran, you are an old woman who can't get married. You actually come here to say such words at this time. You really don't have any virtues as a craftsman!"

Lin Qingran was unhappy, so she came over and pulled Su Bei out.

At the same time, he said: "What do you know?"

"Su Bei, come with me."

"I'll teach you about forging."

"I'm definitely better than what this old guy taught me."

"Then he is ranked 98th, right? I am ranked 97th, and I am much better than him. Believe me, there is nothing wrong with me!"

I am Lin Qingran.

Redefine it, much better than him.
