Su Yue nodded in relief, "The weather is getting hotter, why not hire more people and try to finish it by early next month. Don't worry about the money, but just make sure the quality is guaranteed.
Also, I will hire some blacksmiths to forge some iron tools, and Uncle Liu should also build two or three blacksmith shops."
Liu Shan was stunned. Two or three blacksmith shops? How many iron tools do they need to make? Even opening a blacksmith shop doesn't need to be so exaggerated.
Liu Shan knew that Su Yue didn't understand the market, so he reminded her: "Girl, even if you make a few ordinary ironwares in one day, one iron forge is enough."
Su Yue smiled mysteriously, afraid that Liu Shan would complain that there were too few of these two or three iron forges.
"Uncle Liu, just build it according to my instructions."
Honeysuckle also said, "Dad, don't ask so many questions. We should just do what the girl says."
Seeing Su Yue's firm attitude, Liu Shan stopped talking and nodded, "Okay, since the young lady has ordered me to do so, I will arrange for someone to build a forge."
Su Yue took another walk around the construction site of the tower and saw that everything was built according to the drawings. She was satisfied and prepared to leave with Rendong and Nanny Yang.
As soon as Su Yue and her two servants got on the carriage, Su Yue asked Song Da to go to the city. Originally, Su Yue wanted to go to Laicheng, which was not far from the capital.
But the weather was too hot, so Su Yue thought about it and decided to go to the capital. After all, they were wearing men's clothes, so no one would recognize them.
At this time, Madam Yang couldn't help asking, "Miss, why do you build so many iron forges? It will cost a lot of money."
Su Yue narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Mammy, my mother said that there will be many natural disasters coming one after another, so we must be fully prepared. It may be of great use in the future."
Honeysuckle also asked curiously: "Girl, do you have any plans?"
Su Yue smiled and said, "I can't tell you now. You will know when the time comes."
The carriage drove slowly towards the capital city on the hot road. Soon, it arrived at the gate of the capital city.
The soldiers guarding the city were so hot that their faces turned red, but they still stayed at their posts. Song Da drove his carriage smoothly into the capital.
There were few pedestrians on the streets of the capital, and most people were hiding in the shade to escape the heat. Looking across the entire street, the pharmacies and herbal tea shops were doing the best business. Su Yue looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar scene from the car window, feeling a mixture of emotions in her heart.
"Girl, where are we going now?" asked Honeysuckle.
Su Yue thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the blacksmith shop first."
Soon the carriage arrived in front of a blacksmith shop, and before getting off the carriage, one could hear the clanging sound of iron hammering coming from inside the shop.
Before Su Yue and the other two, who had put on their bamboo hats, entered the blacksmith shop, an even stronger heat wave hit them in the face, making Su Yue feel dizzy.
The blacksmiths were busy forging iron, sweating profusely. When they saw someone coming in, they just raised their heads slightly.
Nanny Yang and Rendong couldn't help but admire the blacksmiths who continued to forge iron in the extremely hot temperature.
At this time, a tall, strong, dark-skinned, shirtless middle-aged man came out and said, "Sir, do you want to buy anything?"
Seeing the man in front of her naked, Madam Yang quickly stood in front of Su Yue and said, "Oh, how unbecoming of you to be so disheveled."
It would have been fine if Nanny Yang didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, her female voice was revealed. The middle-aged man glanced at Nanny Yang, then at the petite and handsome young man behind Nanny Yang, and immediately understood that these three were women!
After putting on his drooping clothes, the middle-aged man clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, but the temperature in our blacksmith shop is extremely high, it's really hot."
Su Yue nodded slightly and said, "It's okay. Can you accept custom ironware?"
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Of course, as long as you tell us your requirements, we will do our best to build it."
Su Yue took out the blueprint from her bosom and said, "I need this kind of ironware. How long will it take to make it?"
The image Su Yue drew in her drawing was an arrow head.
After looking at the blueprint, the middle-aged man looked at Su Yue in surprise and said, "Sir, if you don't mind, let's go to the teahouse next door to talk. I have something that I guarantee will satisfy you."
Su Yue also looked back at the middle-aged man. As soon as Nanny Yang's voice came out just now, the middle-aged man must have known that they were women.
He didn't even expose them, but said he had something good to show her. She must be the one who could make the arrow she drew.
Su Yue nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go to the teahouse and talk."
"Then please wait a moment, sir. I'll be back soon!" The middle-aged man said and quickly went into the blacksmith shop. He came out after a while, but with a long box in his hand.
Everyone went to the teahouse next door and found a quiet private room to sit down. The middle-aged man asked the waiter to bring a pot of tea, and then pushed the long box in front of Su Yue.
"Sir, you can open it and see if the contents here can satisfy you."
Su Yue was slightly stunned. Just as she was about to reach out her hand, Ren Dong snatched it away. "Master, let me do it!"
Rendong was afraid that the long box contained something bad, and it would be bad if it hurt Su Yue.
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Su Yue's consent, she slowly opened the box, only to see a set of well-made crossbows and arrows lying quietly inside.
The crossbow was pitch black with a cold and hard luster, and the arrows were extremely sharp, flashing coldly in the sunlight coming in from the window.
Su Yue's eyes showed surprise. She gently picked up the crossbow and examined it carefully. "This crossbow and arrows are really amazing. Where did you get them from?"
The middle-aged man could see that the young man in front of him liked the crossbow very much, so he smiled and said, "To be honest, this was made by a young man two years ago, but after it was made, the young man never came to pick it up.
Our shop is also a small business, and it took us a lot of manpower and materials to make this thing. The young man has not come to pick it up, so I thought about selling the crossbow to make a profit.
You just gave me the blueprint, and I dared to guess that you would also like this thing, so I brought the crossbow for you to take a look."
Su Yue nodded slightly and said directly, "This crossbow is indeed rare. How much silver do you plan to sell it for?"
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, and he could see that although the young man in front of him was dressed in ordinary clothes, his behavior seemed that he came from a wealthy family, and wealthy young men were always generous.
So the middle-aged man said, "Sir, you have a good eye. This crossbow and arrows cost a lot to make. Adding the craftsmanship, it must have cost at least one hundred taels of silver."
Hearing this, Honeysuckle exclaimed, "One hundred taels, do you know how much one hundred taels is? Why don't you go and rob it?"
Madam Yang also frowned and said, "One hundred taels is indeed too much."
