ps: Thanks to book friends "Snake General 11", "Charlotte Hesselinck", "The Best Otaku" and "Icefield" for their rewards.
Chen Dasheng's smile did not make the boss feel any discomfort. Instead, he walked aside enthusiastically, took down a gleaming dagger from the shelf, walked up to Chen Dasheng, and said, "This sword is made of Bailian."
It is made by hammering with French magic. It is my work 20 years ago. The sword is extremely hard and sharp. I dare not say that it can cut iron like clay, but it is enough to break hair by blowing it. If your friends don't believe it, you can try it!"
With that said, the boss turned the sword over and handed the hilt to Chen Dasheng. His tone and expression did not know whether it was arrogance or confidence. What Chen Dasheng could feel was only two words, that was 'arrogant'.
Chen Dasheng took it and flicked the sword with his finger. There was a clanking sound and a buzzing sound. The sword was sharpened and the cold light was shining. Although he did not try it, Chen Dasheng could feel that this sword was indeed a good sword.
Looking sideways, the little old man still had a confused expression. Chen Dasheng couldn't stand it and asked, "What's your last name, boss?"
"Excuse me, I'm a blacksmith, and my surname is Iron!" A smile flashed across the corner of the little old man's mouth, and he gave himself a thumbs up, "My friend, I'm not bragging. I've spent my whole life studying the art of smelting iron, and I don't dare
I’m better than the general Mo Xie, but the iron smelting and blacksmithing skills I master are definitely world-leading.”
Chen Dasheng looked back at Nangong Chen. Both of them had joking smiles on their faces. Now they seemed to know why the store was so deserted. It was because the store owner's tone was too arrogant. Chen Dasheng put his arm around a sword flower.
He said directly, "Boss, you said this sword is extremely hard. Is that true?"
"Haha, don't believe it. Even if this sword is used to cut steel, it will never have a chip. I'll put it here first. If it's missing or broken, I'll pay ten for the fake one!" the boss said confidently.
"Can't I see?" The corners of Chen Dasheng's mouth curved slightly, and he clamped his two fingers on the tip of the sword, and folded it with a slight force. There was only a crisp clang sound, and the sword body trembled, but the tip of the sword was actually struck by Chen Dasheng alive.
It was broken off.
The smile on Boss Tie's face suddenly froze. He stared at the broken sword tip in Chen Dasheng's hand over and over again. He almost didn't believe it was true. No matter how soft his sword was, it would not be damaged by anyone.
Did you use two fingers to break it? How much strength does it take?
"Boss Tie, your sword doesn't seem to be as hard as you said? Why is it like tofu?" Nangong Chen said jokingly to the dumbfounded boss, and took the sword from Chen Dasheng's hand.
With a little force, a section of it was also broken off.
Boss Tie came back to his senses, took the remaining half of the sword into his hand, and broke it like the other two. But if it could be broken, some monks were confused.
"This..." This was the first time he encountered such a situation. Boss Tie was very surprised. He was a little incoherent and had no way to explain. In desperation, he immediately took out a long knife from the side and said, "This knife was mine ten years ago."
The quality of the forged sword is much better than that of the sword just now!"
Boss Tie is no longer as calm as he was just now. He is eager to prove his ancestral craftsmanship. A good sword was broken like a piece of tofu. If this spreads out, how can he open this small shop?
Going down, the craftsmanship of his ancestors will be put to shame. The sword was made by himself. Although it was a product twenty years ago, it is much better than some of the weapons today. It is absolutely impossible to break so easily.
Chen Dasheng took the long sword, looked at it, and said to Boss Tie, "Boss Tie, are you sure this knife is better than the sword just now? If I break it, don't ask me to pay for it!"
Boss Tie nodded without thinking, "You can do it, if you break it, it's mine. This knife is made of fine iron, and it was made with my unique secret method. If you can break it,
, you are considered awesome!"
"clang!"
Before Boss Tie finished speaking, Chen Dasheng flicked the blade with his finger. The blade shook violently and immediately exploded, sending fragments flying everywhere and almost missing Boss Tie's old face.
Looking at the bare hilt of the knife in Chen Dasheng's hand, Boss Tie was stunned. Who is this guy? Is his sword really too weak, or is this person too strong? This knife can be so easy.
was smashed?
"This sword was forged by me five years ago..."
"clang!"
"Forged three years ago..."
"clang!"
"Forged last year..."
"clang!"
Looking at the iron blocks on the ground, Boss Tie was completely confused. None of them could withstand Chen Dasheng's flick. Even Nangong Chen looked at it and was a little dumbfounded. It was okay to ask him to break the sword.
But if Chen Dasheng could flick the sword into pieces like this, he asked himself that he couldn't do it.
Looking at the dumbfounded Boss Tie, Nangong Chen said, "Boss, it seems that your sign of "No Iron in the World" needs to be demolished. With iron like yours, my brother-in-law broke it with just one click. How can you still call the world "No Iron"?
?”
Boss Tie was speechless for a moment. After hearing Nangong Chen's words, he finally realized that these two people must have come to cause trouble.
Chen Dasheng shook his head gently, "Boss, to be honest, we have all practiced. I passed by here today. Seeing the awesome name of your store, I originally thought I could come in and find a suitable weapon, but Boss Tie, you are the best in the world.
We are a little disappointed with the iron. Since we can’t find a suitable one, forget it. Look at how much these damaged things are worth, and I will compensate you according to the price.”
Just now he just saw the boss's arrogant tone. Now seeing the boss's bitter face, Chen Dasheng couldn't bear it. But just now he was a little impulsive and ruined so much hard work. The iron filings all over the floor were given to him.
After the lesson is learned, some compensation should be given.
"Wait a minute!" At this time, the boss suddenly waved his hand and stopped Chen Dasheng from talking.
"Well?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dasheng and the other two couldn't help but look at Boss Tie. The boss's face was grave, with a completely unwilling expression on his old face.
He guessed in his heart that these two people must have come to ruin the place. He had to get this place back today no matter what, otherwise he really wouldn't have the face to hang the sign of "The Best Iron in the World" outside. The boss hesitated and said
, "You two seem to have come prepared. You must both know the quality of the ironware in my shop. Since you are not satisfied with these things, there are still three pieces of precious iron in my shop!"
"Baotie?"
Although I didn’t think there would be any precious iron in this small shop, I still couldn’t help but be curious when I saw the confused expression on Boss Tie’s face. Looking at each other with Nangong Chen, Chen Dasheng said to Boss Tie, “Boss
You might as well take it out and let us look at it!"
"I also want to see what kind of iron can be called precious iron!" Nangong Chen also said.
"You wait!"
The boss frowned and glanced at the two of them, then turned around, opened the curtain behind the counter and walked in. The only two people left in the store were Chen Dasheng, along with the iron fragments on the floor and the trembling
bead curtain.
"Brother-in-law, don't tell me, this man's casting skills are among the best in the country!" Nangong Chen started to speak kind words without anyone else, with praise in his words.
Chen Dasheng nodded and expressed the same feeling, "It's a pity that this little old man's tone is too loud. Although he has some real abilities, he still has a lot of bragging skills!"
"There is no way. Some people are born like this and like to show off. There is a saying that they are arrogant because of their talents. Maybe this is the kind of person they are talking about. But it is a pity to destroy so many good weapons!" Nangong Chen laughed and looked at it.
There were broken swords all over the ground, and there was a trace of regret on his face.
Chen Dasheng shook his head and said, "For us, weapons are for use, not for viewing. If it breaks when touched, it is not a good weapon. It is not a pity to destroy it. Besides, it is not a pity to destroy it."
The boss will bring out the good stuff only if it’s the first time, right?”
"That makes sense!" Nangong Chen's mouth curved slightly. He walked to the shelf where the swords were placed and looked at it. His eyes looked at the sword of one of the long swords, and suddenly there was a trace of emotion in his eyes.
Yimang said, "Brother-in-law, come and take a look at this sword."
Chen Dasheng walked over doubtfully. Nangong Chen had already taken the sword off the shelf, pointed to the sword body near the hilt, and said to Chen Dasheng, "Look, what are the words engraved on this? It's 'Kangxi Year System'
'Huh? Isn't this an ancient sword?" (To be continued...)
