Chapter 63 Buying a Hammer for Grandpa

The high-end auction floor is divided into several auction areas, accounting for nearly one-third of the entire Nanhu College area.

Fatty Jiang was on the lawn of the college looking at the sparkling South Lake from a distance, the blue sky, the sand gulls flying under the white clouds, and the busy fishing boats on the lake. For fishermen, fishing on the lake is everything in life.

The auction has nothing to do with their lives.

The fat man sighed and said to himself: "When I'm done with my work, Fatty, I will take a big beautiful girl and go boating on the South Lake. With such a beautiful scenery, it would be a pity not to go and enjoy it."

With the 10,000 taels of silver notes given by Tang Jiusheng in his arms, the fat man rushed into the auction area, where he and Zhong Lai and others searched everywhere for possible useful tactics, formations, formation diagrams and the like.

Since the high-end auction house is a self-service auction, buyers and sellers can bargain, so except for extremely unpopular items, the general booths are in full swing.

After wandering around the venue for a full hour, the fat man only spent one hundred and thirty taels of silver and bought two old and old books on the art of war. One was "Xiang Lin, the soldier immortal of the Yanhan Empire" more than 300 years ago.

"Military Power", which was bought for seventy taels of silver, and the other was "The Great Sui Martial Classic" written by Liu Mingkong of the previous dynasty, which cost sixty taels of silver.

The fat man was holding two books in his arms and was very excited. The price was really not expensive. If these two masters of the art of war were still alive, would they vomit three liters of blood if they sold their original war books at such a low price?

There was an empty booth on the edge of the lawn, except for a pair of eight-sided silver sledgehammers. There was only an old man dozing with his eyes closed and a fourteen-year-old girl each sitting on a small stool.

The old man taking a nap was wearing a black short coat, neat and tidy. He looked to be in his seventies, and he must have been a handsome guy when he looked younger. The girl next to him was dashing, wearing a green coat and skirt, and she was quite pretty.

The fat man was quite moved when he saw the pair of eight-edged silver sledgehammers. He squatted in front of the booth and looked at it again and again. Taking advantage of it, he asked with a playful smile: "Old man, these pair of paper hammers are pretty good. How can I sell them? Are you next to me?"

Do you want to sell this pretty girl in a package? If so, what’s the price?”

Looking at this frivolous talker, the heroic girl's eyes widened with anger. She stood up from the stool and was about to take action.

The old man who was dozing off woke up from his dream. When he heard the fat man's frivolous words, he sneered, "Of course I can sell these hammers. They were originally sold for five thousand taels of silver. Now as long as you can play with these hammers, my granddaughter will do it."

I will make you a daughter-in-law, and the hammer will be regarded as a dowry. It is free of charge, and I will also give you a grandpa as an extra gift!"

The fat man laughed heartily, "Old man, are you telling the truth or are you lying? Are you trying to fool me, Fatty?"

The old man stood up, his eyes were sharp, and he crossed his arms in front of his chest, "Why, am I only allowed to entertain grandpa, a wild boy like you who doesn't know where he came from, and grandpa, I can't entertain you?"

The fat man was just joking casually, but when the old man said this, he felt a little embarrassed, "What's the matter, old man, are you bullying the fat man and I can't lift these hammers? Let's make a bet, if I can pull this pair of hammers,

To the hammer, give me this hammer, and will your granddaughter marry me?"

The old man selling the hammer was also very angry. Such a fat man came from nowhere and spoke so brazenly. Do you know who the previous owner of these hammers was? Do you know how much these hammers weighed? The old man puffed his beard and glared angrily, "Little boy, I don't know."

Anyway, try to see if you can lift these hammers first! Don’t blame me for being rude to you if you can’t!"

The fat man gave a weird laugh, bent down and picked up a pair of hammers in his hands, got into a posture, threw away his tricks, and used the Mountain Hammering Technique on the ground. After one stroke of hammering, his face was not red and he was out of breath.

He gently placed the hammer on the ground and praised: "Old man, these hammers are really precious. Fatty, I am really good at using them!"

At this time, many people came to watch. Seeing how brave the fat man was, bursts of cheers came from the crowd, "This strong man is so strong and good at hammering!"

"Yeah, great martial arts! It's the first time I've seen someone able to use such a big pair of hammers! How strong is this little fat guy? He's really a god!"

The old man who originally looked down upon the fat man was surprised and happy, so I went over and realized that this little fat man with an unattractive appearance was really capable! Even He Tianyu’s hammer from the previous dynasty could be played with great prowess.

I won’t be buried in a coffin!

The dashing girl's anger has also subsided, and her complexion has improved significantly. Not only has her complexion improved, but the fat man is now pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it. A while ago, Grandpa Li made a fortune telling that it was a hammer marriage, and he was laughed at by grandpa.

It is said that it is a marriage with a hammer, a marriage with a hammer, it is a marriage with a hammer! Could it be a joke, referring to the marriage with the fat man in front of me?

The fat man put away his playful smile and said, "Old man, these hammers are good weapons, but five thousand taels of silver are too expensive. I can only give you one thousand taels of silver!"

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head and said, "Since we have agreed before, of course we cannot sell these hammers for one thousand taels of silver, because these hammers are considered as dowry and are given as a gift."

The fat man looked surprised, "What? Dowry? I said, old man, you don't really want to marry your granddaughter to me, do you? Fat man, I was joking with you just now!"

The old man glared and said: "A gentleman's words are hard to catch up with! Why, little fat man, do you think my granddaughter is not good enough for you? Let me tell you, little fat man, my granddaughter is not only as beautiful as a flower, but she can also go to the hall or the kitchen."

, you can win the fight with the robbers and run away from the gangsters. Being able to marry my granddaughter as your wife is a blessing that you have earned in eight lifetimes. You have made a lot of money, you know?"

The girl in green clothes was a little embarrassed in front of everyone, and gently shook the old man's arm, "Grandpa, you..."

The fat man shook his hands anxiously, "Old man, old man, you keep misunderstanding. I didn't mean that. In my family..."

When the old man saw the fat man's expression, he understood, "Oh, I understand, I understand, you mean you already have a wife at home, right? It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. My granddaughter is aggrieved and aggrieved. It doesn't matter if she is a small one. If she can be older at both ends,

good."

The fat man stood there stunned, blushing and speechless. Originally, the fat man had a bad mouth and always took advantage of his words. However, the grandfather and grandson took him seriously, and the fat man was confused and didn't know what to do.

The girl in Tsing Yi also had a bad temper. Her grandfather even told her about him when he was a child in front of everyone, but the fat man still refused to agree. It was obvious that the fat man did not take his grandfather and grandson seriously.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his almond-shaped eyes rounded, and he took a step forward, "Fat man, you are talking like a girl, I am begging to marry you! Since you consider yourself to be a strong martial artist, you might as well try a few of my moves!"

The girl in green took two steps forward and punched her in the chest. The fat man ducked back to avoid the punch, "Girl, girl, listen to me, you misunderstood!"

The girl was furious, but she didn't want to listen. She surrounded the fat man with punches left and right, kicking him to the right. Not to mention, this girl was really good at martial arts.

How can a fat man be willing to fight with a girl? He is afraid of accidentally hurting the girl. He is so anxious that cold sweat breaks out on his head, thinking where is this going?

Washboard?

Hearing everyone shouting that there was a fat man fighting with a girl here, Ximen Yushuang, Shui Ruyue, Sun Jiangdong, Zhonglai and others were all attracted. When they came here, they saw that

Here comes a girl in Tsing Yi fighting with the fat man.

Several people saw that although the girl's martial arts was not as good as the fat man, it was not much weaker. Fortunately, the fat man was thick-skinned and not afraid of being beaten, so everyone gathered around and waited to see the fat man's jokes. At this time, the crowd started talking, saying

The fat man didn't want to marry this girl, and the girl was so anxious that she would hit him. A few people understood the general idea, and thought that this fat man still had such a good fortune?

The fat man was helpless and anxious, not knowing what to do. He heard someone in the crowd shout, "Who dares to fight at the auction? Get him quickly!"

Everyone followed the sound and saw a squad leader patrolling here with about a dozen officials. Although Lingxiao Pavilion and Ziyunke were hosting the auction, for safety reasons, the Jiannan Road Manager's Yamen still came from various places.

Counties mobilized a group of capable officers and soldiers to help maintain public order.

Ximen Yushuang in the crowd saw this squad leader and recognized him. It was the Bei squad leader whom he and Tang Jiusheng met when they left Dangyang County in Daxi Town.

Are you the leader of the North class? Are you on duty today? Can you take a moment to speak?"

Team leader Bei glanced at Ximen Yushuang. He seemed to have some impression of this beautiful girl, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her. Maybe she was a girl from an official's family? Never mind her. We are just a small team leader, just trying to make ends meet.

, If you can't offend others, don't offend.

Bei Bantou followed Ximen Yushuang to the side, with a smile on his face, "Oh, look at my memory, I can't remember your name. Why, do you know these two people who are fighting?"

Ximen Yushuang smiled and said, "These two are my brother and my brother's wife. The young couple started fighting as soon as they disagreed. I will go to persuade them right away. Don't worry about it. You can take this money."

Let’s drink tea.” As he spoke, he handed over two taels of silver.

Bei Bantou looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He quickly took the money and put it in his arms, "Look, it cost you a lot of money! Then you should quickly separate your brother and his wife, otherwise there will be so many people in this large public."

It’s hard for me to handle it even if people look at it!”

Originally, even if the fat man was taken away by an official, no one could do anything to him. However, it would delay the time of searching for treasures at the auction, so Ximen Yushuang decided to spend two taels of silver to bribe Bei Bantou and spend a little money to buy the fat man.

A peace of mind.

Team leader Bei left with the officials. Ximen Yushuang came over to start a fight with a straight face, "Okay, you two, stop fighting. Don't you think it's embarrassing? If you want to fight, go home and close the door!"

The girl in green clothes looked at her and said, oh, this pretty girl is the eldest wife of the fat man's family? No wonder the fat man didn't dare to say anything. She really looked like an eldest wife, so she stopped. The fat man jumped aside, feeling angry.

Ximen Yushuang and Shui Ruyue discussed it and decided to take the grandfather and grandson away together and go back to discuss with Tang Jiusheng and Yin Sheng. If the girl's family was innocent, they might as well marry the fat man to her! Poor fat man.

, just let the two sisters-in-law betrothed out.

The fight on Fatty's side was in full swing, and something happened at the top auction house. Tietun bid 20,000 taels of silver to buy the piece of broken iron. The female auctioneer had just announced the deal when suddenly there was a man with a veil covering his face in the seats on the first floor.

He jumped up and reached the VIP seat on the second floor in a flash. With a bright dagger in his hand, he stabbed Tiedun directly in the chest!

Tieton was immersed in the joy of taking pictures of the treasures that suddenly returned to the country. He never expected that such a scene would happen. In the flash of lightning, the killer's dagger had already pierced the gold silk jacket that Tieton was wearing.

At this moment of life and death, a hand firmly grasped the killer's wrist, and the person who made the move was none other than Tang Jiusheng. At the same time, an arrow shot through the air, piercing the killer through the entire body.
