Straight man of steel

Chapter 36 Oh, the gold is a bit heavy (recommendation ticket please)
Although the knife made by Xiong Da is not as good as the one made of meteoric iron, and it is not as good as those weapons that everyone has spent several years honing, but in this era where iron weapons are mainly used, it can still be called a sword. A treasure.

"Ming Zun? Forgive me for being stupid, does this name have any meaning?"

Zhuo Wangsun subconsciously believed that this knife was made by a master, so he wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Waving my sleeves for nine hundred years, the sun and moon are gone, and I am carrying a flaming yellow statue on my back."

"Miao, chopping the sun and the moon with a knife, I am the only one, the name of the Ming Zun is worth more than a thousand gold, A Yuan, you said before that you are here to give money to the old man, is it possible that you want to give this precious sword to the old man?"

Although the laws of the Han Dynasty clearly stipulated that merchants were not allowed to hold swords, it is no problem to hide this kind of treasure that is beyond the scope of ordinary weapons at home.

Facing Zhuo Wangsun's thick skin, Zhang Yuan had no choice but to lament that Jiang was still old and spicy.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yuan said to Zhuo Wangsun bravely and straight to the point.

"Patriarch, the villain brought this knife because he wants you to set a price, and then I have to ask you to sell this knife.

What do you think of the money you get from selling it in the end? "

Zhuo Wangsun is shrewd to the core. For such a knife with such a domineering name, the price will definitely not be low if it is sold, but Zhuo Wangsun seems to have other plans.

"It's easy to say, but Ayuan, you haven't told the old man who made this Mingzun recently.

You know, if you can be crowned with the name of a master, it will be easy to double the price. "

Zhang Yuan was embarrassed at once, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

Zhuo Wangsun held this Mingzun saber, ran to the market and shouted.

"Master Xiong Da's newly released precious sword, produced by Xiong Da, must be a high-quality product.

As long as 1 taels of gold, you can get such treasures. "

Thinking of this scene, Zhang Yuan felt that the first thing he would do when he got home was to change Xiong Da's name for him.

Hear how exciting the names of others are, and there are Ou Zhizi and so on. This sounds like the name a master should have.

"Reporting to Patriarch, this sword was only forged by an unknown swordsmith. There is really no way to sell it cheaper. If you want to come, the swordsmith will not care about the gains and losses."

Zhang Yuan was very cash-strapped and besides the time and human resources spent on this knife, there was no other cost at all.

All the ores are pulled from the smelting workshop, as long as the price is not too high, Zhang Yuan can accept it.

He no longer has the idea of ​​handing over the method of pouring steel to Zhuo Wangsun. From the price of swords made of ordinary fine steel, it can be seen how eager the Han Dynasty was for this kind of sharp weapon, but the steel production still has hundreds of steelmaking techniques. The difficulty basically curbs such a little extravagant hope.

It can be seen from Zhuo Wangsun's previous performance that this old guy has no other sincerity that can be brought to the table except for marrying his daughter.

A steel knife or steel sword can be sold for at least 100 taels of gold, and Xiong Daxiong Er can make nearly twenty of them in a month at this speed.

Sometimes accumulating wealth is as simple as that, and technology is the primary productive force.

With money, do I still care about Zhuo Wenjun's body? Wouldn't it be better to buy a hundred good-looking maidservants to sing and sing every night?

Ah ha ha ha ha ha.

"A Yuan, why did you laugh as soon as you finished speaking, what's so funny about this?"

"Forehead."

Zhang Yuan quickly touched the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and bowed to Zhuo Wangsun to express his apology.

Zhuo Wangsun suddenly felt puzzled, but Zhang Yuan's answer hit him right, so he quickly continued what he said just now.

"You said that the blacksmith who made this knife is unknown, but the price is much lower."

In order to deliberately belittle the swordsmith, Zhuo Wangsun directly changed his title. Just now he said that everyone has become a blacksmith in a blink of an eye, is that okay?

"Master, how much is more suitable for you?"

"It can still be sold for 2000 taels of gold, but before that, a gorgeous handle and scabbard must be obtained.

You don’t need to worry about these two things, I can just find someone to build them.

You kid said before that two to one makes five, and the old man will not take advantage of you. It is estimated that it will cost hundreds of taels of gold to make the scabbard and handle.

It seems that your kid has no money to spend recently. You can go directly to the treasury to withdraw a thousand taels of gold later. "

Zhuo Wangsun didn't give Zhang Yuan any chance to bargain, and settled the matter in a few words.

Zhang Yuan saw that the old fox was so decisive now, and suddenly felt that there was something fishy in it, but he still couldn't figure out what went wrong. It was just that this steel knife could be sold at a higher price, and Zhuo Wangsun wanted to make more. .

This is 1000 taels of gold. Although a catty of gold for a big man weighs as much as half a catty for later generations, Zhang Yuan's heart will burst into laughter as soon as this number comes out.

He was already very satisfied to be able to sell at such a price, after all, Xiong Da's valuation was like this before.If there is no help from Zhuo Wangsun, it will be this price if I sell it in the market by myself, and I will waste a lot of time and energy.

Zhang Yuan silently recited a few words in his heart, "People must learn to be content," and then showed a kind smile.

"The villain thanked the Patriarch, and please rest assured the Patriarch about the lying wheel water row. When the villain returns home, he will wholeheartedly build this thing for the Patriarch."

Zhuo Wangsun also smiled with satisfaction, then picked up the steel knife and went out immediately without saying a word to Zhang Yuan.

Every time he saw benefits or obtained benefits from Zhang Yuan before, he would always say something at the end.

"Ah Yuan, do a good job, and the old man will betroth Wenjun to you soon."

The old fox didn't say this this time. Zhang Yuan didn't know why, but instead of feeling relaxed, he felt a little disappointed.

But when he thinks of the 1000 taels of gold, what can he lose?
On this trip home, Zhang Yuan chose to go back by carriage. Thousands of taels of gold were filled into a large wooden box. The box alone weighed dozens of kilograms. Zhang Yuan lowered his head and looked at his small body that had not yet developed. He decisively Leaning on the wooden box, he sat in a carriage and was driven by Zhuo Mansion's servants towards home.

ps: I tested the waters and pushed it, but the update was interrupted in the middle. I'm sorry to everyone, but in order to achieve better results, I shamelessly asked for your recommendation votes. Thank you.
