Chapter 921: Inscription
Knowing the starting point of this noble son, Shopkeeper Wu stopped talking nonsense, carefully put the silver away, and immediately greeted enthusiastically: "Childe, please come here to have tea first, please wait for a while!" ”
"Good!" Lin Ran nodded lightly, and went directly to the tea table next to him to sit down, and had tea here slowly.
Tiger Girl is an idle master, although she did not leave her brother and run to the street to play, but she also walked to the shelf next to her and began to look for a saber that took advantage of her wishes.
This kind of short saber is not pleasing to the literati, but the length of the tiger girl is placed here, which is quite appropriate, so she carefully selected it here, and beckoned Ali and others to choose it together.
Naturally, Ali didn't look down on these short swords, and after taking two looks, she carefully wiped the knife in her hand beside her.
Shopkeeper Wu is a blacksmith and is extremely familiar with swords. When the rusty sword was in his hands, he immediately understood why this noble prince insisted on repairing this sword, this rusty sword did still have the value of repair, and the sword heart was not corroded.
He came to the work desk next to him, which had all the tools, and first raised the hammer in the air, but after a moment's hesitation, he gently lowered it and replaced it with a square stick.
He tapped his rusty sword with his stick in his hand, his ears making a listening gesture, but his face was solemn.
Hey?
Lin Ran sat next to him and drank tea, also paying attention to the behavior of the shopkeeper Wu, and immediately saw that this was a master. I know that I have found the right person this time, and if I leave it to him to deal with, I will definitely be able to sharpen a good sword.
It's just that in the incomprehensible eyes of everyone, Shopkeeper Wu held the square stick and scraped it down hard. Since the stick was square, its edges were like blades, cutting directly at the rust on the sword.
Gee......
The stick slashed towards the blade of the sword, and there was a small sound.
A scene that surprised Ali and the others appeared, and the rust on the sword body fell one after another, revealing a somewhat yellowed wheat bronze sword body. The sword was only covered with rusty slag, but the body of the sword was well preserved, and it was a bronze sword in good condition.
How so?
Ali, who was wiping the long knife, opened her mouth slightly, her eyes widened, and her face looked at the bronze sword in disbelief. As if thinking of something, he suddenly looked at Lin Ran, who was sitting at the tea table drinking tea.
Although she knew that this man was smart, he could be said to be the smartest young man in the country. But at the moment, he had the see-through eye, and he found this sword so easily from that pile of scrap metal.
Hey?
Lin Ran knew that this sword might be in perfect condition, but when he saw this scene, his eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
However, these years of qi cultivation kung fu still have some results, and he still sits there calmly and drinks tea, as if everything has nothing to do with him, or everything is expected, and the whole person seems to be unfathomable.
"Ah Si, bring water and a rag!"
Shopkeeper Wu looked a little excited, his tone changed, and he instructed the shopkeeper.
The bronze sword's body remained intact, proving that the sword had not corroded, and that the rust must have come from another weapon. How could he not be thrilled by the appearance of a sword in perfect condition?
"Give!"
The shopkeeper was very neat and sent things over.
Like an experienced craftsman, Shopkeeper Wu carefully wiped the bronze sword with gauze, cleaning the rust from it, revealing an intact and textured blade.
"Sword!"
Lin Fu and the others watched the bronze sword appear in perfect condition, their eyes full of envy and a hint of greed.
Zheng ......
After the shopkeeper Wu finished cleaning up, his face remained calm, and with a flick of his fingers, he immediately made a pleasant metal sound, as if it had just been forged a sharp sword.
"Good sword!"
After this voice came out, Shopkeeper Wu couldn't help but admire.
"Shopkeeper, what dynasty is this sword?"
The shopkeeper had already come to the side of the shopkeeper, and his eyes were glued to the bronze sword and asked.
"It's hard to say!"
Shopkeeper Wu shook his head lightly, walked towards Lin Ran with this bronze sword in his hand, and congratulated sincerely: "Congratulations to Gongzi, this is a bronze sword." Although there is no inscription on it, it is a rare heirloom sword, which is really gratifying! ”
"What is an inscription?" Lin Ran asked suspiciously.
But not only him, but the Tie Zhu and others around him also cast a look of curiosity.
Shopkeeper Wu did have a few insights, and immediately replied seriously: "The inscription is like the identity of this sword, like a seal in a painting, with which it can prove the provenance of the sword, and the value will be more than a hundred times higher!" ”
Speaking of this, he pointed to the bare sword body and said, "This sword is a pity!" There is no inscription on it, or the inscription has been scratched off, and the value is greatly reduced! ”
Lin Ran nodded slightly, and said very plainly: "Shopkeeper Wu, there is Lao to help my son deal with it!" ”
To this day, this bronze iron is worth a lot of money, and whether there is an inscription on it or not does not mean anything to him. His starting point was very simple, which was to dispose of the sword and use it to decorate the room.
"Childe, the villain has a presumptuous request, I wonder if I can transfer this sword to the villain?" Shopkeeper Wu hesitated for a moment and said expectantly.
Lin Ran heard that he wanted to ask for it, but he asked with a smile: "Do you think this son is a person who is short of money?" ”
At present, with the earning power of the joint business group, especially Foshan's steel products have begun to generate profits, which can be described as a daily income. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that he is the least short of money.
"The villain is willing to exchange this shop for another thousand taels!" Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Shopkeeper Wu chose to make an authentic bid.
Lin Ran was unmoved, and said lightly: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." You can't keep this kind of good thing! ”
"Childe has to teach you a lesson!" Shopkeeper Wu sighed lightly and immediately gave a long salute.
When it got here, I thought it was over.
Who would have thought, the tiger girl seemed to think of something, and ran out in a hurry. After a while, she ran back again, but with two more scarred iron swords in her hand.
In the last transaction, she insisted on the principle of not losing too much, and asked for these two iron-stained iron swords from the stall owner.
What made Lin Ran feel quite helpless was that this wild girl actually looked very optimistic, and urged the shopkeeper Wu with great anticipation: "You help me take a look, I think my two are also swords!" ”
