Chapter 429: Shameless or Shameless?

Of course Xu Muhua got his wish and ate rice skin that night.

Tender, chewy, sour and spicy, it deeply stimulates the taste buds and makes the mouth salivate. One bite will make you feel refreshed and your appetite will whet your appetite!

In the end, she was satisfied and went to bed early that night, preparing to go to the blacksmith to discuss things the next day.

"Miss, this is it." Liang Ming acted as a bodyguard and escorted Xu Muhua to Xicheng. After searching for clues, he successfully found the blacksmith's shop.

Just like many shops in Xicheng, this shop is nothing special. If you glance at it once, you won't look at it a second time.

"go in!"

After entering, you will find that there is a blacksmithing place behind the shop, which can be regarded as self-sufficient and self-sold. Putting the printed items out in the front for sale later saves a lot of money.

"What would you like, sir?" The waiter greeted the guest enthusiastically and asked.

Xu Muhua glanced at the waiter and said, "I'm looking for your shopkeeper."

"Oh, you are looking for my dad! What do you want to do with him? My dad is busy in the back right now!" He was covered in sweat and it was not easy to meet guests.

When Xu Muhua heard this, his eyes fell on the waiter again, "Are you the shopkeeper's son?"

The waiter looks very honest, with a square face, thick eyebrows and clean eyes. He just doesn't look like a blacksmith's son, he's a bit thinner.

"Yes, sir, you can tell at a glance that they are not from our side. People around us know that this store is opened by our father and son."

Xu Muhua nodded, "I came here because of your reputation. I have something very important to see your father. Please let me know."

When the waiter saw that she looked noble and was accompanied by maids and guards, he knew that she was a young lady from a wealthy family. Not daring to say anything else, he muttered and turned around and walked inside.

"It's strange, since when did dad know such a person... I'm so famous, why am I so famous? Dad doesn't seem to be famous..."

Xu Muhua heard: "..."

Sure enough, he was his biological son. She was 100% sure that they were biological father and son.

After listening to his son's words, the old blacksmith who was working behind the blacksmith simply cleaned up and walked out.

But when he saw Xu Muhua, he frowned and said, "Are you looking for me? Do you want to make something? Tell me your requirements, preferably with drawings, and I will see if I can make it. We can negotiate the price."

The old craftsman thought that Xu Muhua was just another wealthy lady who wanted to play some gadgets at the last minute.

It's not like this has never happened before.

He has become somewhat famous in this area and can hit anything. Some people knew his name from nowhere and came to visit him. Sometimes I ask for some small things, but that's okay.

What's annoying is that he often gets half of something, but the person who made the decision says he doesn't want it anymore!

He doesn’t even want to take this kind of business!
If he hadn't been afraid of offending someone, he would have refused directly!

Xu Muhua nodded towards Liang Ming. Liang Ming stepped forward and handed over the ink pad, "Can you punch a key and come out?"

When the old craftsman took the ink pad and took a look, the expression on his face changed instantly.

It was very subtle, but Xu Muhua kept staring at him and naturally caught it. She couldn't help but smile.

It seems that there is still an impression!
Either the key impressed him deeply, or the business guests impressed him deeply.

The old craftsman looked at it carefully and then said: "No, it's too laborious. It looks like it was customized by someone else. It's not cost-effective. I won't accept this kind of business."

Liang Ming frowned and wanted to say something, but Xu Muhua stretched out his hand to stop him.

She smiled slightly and said, "Master, would you like to sit down and have a chat? You can decide whether to accept the business or not after the chat!"

Without waiting for the old craftsman to answer, Liang Ming invited the waiter out half forcefully and half politely. Wu'er also took three steps back and guarded the door.

Seeing this, the old craftsman also knew that he had no choice but to explain the matter.

He invited people to the small courtyard at the back. There was a simple square table and two benches in the courtyard.

Xu Muhua didn't mind it and sat down leisurely.

"Master, let me tell you the truth. When I came to the door, I naturally knew that this key came from you. You made it for the current Lord of the Ministry of Revenue."

The old craftsman was startled, "Hu, Hu Bu Shangshu? He has actually sat in the position of Hu Bu Shangshu?"

Xu Muhua raised his eyebrows.

Why, he doesn't know?
Perhaps because her expression was too obvious, the old craftsman became more straightforward, "When he came to me, he was just an Imperial Academy editor. Unexpectedly, he is now a minister."

"Little girl, since you already know his identity, you should also understand why I can't take this business. I am just a small commoner with no power and power. There are old people above me and young people below me. I can't afford to offend such a big shot. You It’s better to hire someone else!”

Xu Muhua smiled and talked about other topics, "I heard, Master, that you have a shady wife? I just don't know whether she is really shady or... shady."

The old craftsman's face changed drastically, and he stared at Xu Muhua warily, but said: "I don't understand what you are talking about. You are such a good-looking little girl, why do you speak so unpleasantly? My wife is just not in good health. , It’s not a shameful thing, please be careful what you say!”

"Master, let me open the skylight and speak frankly. You must make this key for me. In return, I can restore your wife's identity and live openly in the capital from now on. She will never be like this again. Dodge, afraid of being recognized."

She looked at the old craftsman with deep eyes, "Isn't this a good deal?"

"As for what you're worried about, don't worry. Our Lord Shangshu won't be able to be around for long. It won't be long before he has too much to take care of himself. Where will he have time to take care of you, a little blacksmith!"

Old Jiang didn't care about other things, but what she said about letting his wife regain her identity and live openly in the capital... This was indeed very attractive to him, and he couldn't say no at once.

Even though he knew in his heart that what the girl said was most likely to be deceptive, he was unwilling to give up this hope.

"You look young, but your tone is quite loud!"

"Why are you so loud? You're just telling the truth. Master, I know all your big secrets. Do you think I'm just an ordinary boudoir lady?"

The old craftsman said nothing.

"Now you have only two ways to go, either cooperate with me. You only need to help me get the key out, and you don't need to participate in the subsequent events. No matter what happens, it will not be your fault."

"As long as you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, who would know that you made such a key?"
