With such a big body, he is not only powerful when wielding a sledgehammer, but also very flexible in his movements.
Wang Jian took another look at Lao Tietou's thin body. It was hard to imagine that the strong young man with a bear-like body was actually the grandson of the skinny Lao Tietou.
"This young man must have been kidnapped and trafficked by Old Tietou when he was a child..."
Wang Jian cursed in his heart.
After finishing his drink, Lao Tietou patted his butt and went back to work.
He buried his head, focused on hammering, and sighed and said, "Although Xu Hu is a tall and thick kid, he also has strange powers, but his brain is not very bright."
Wang Jian took a closer look at the young man and found that his big hands were covered with calluses and the muscles behind his arms and shoulders were bulging. He was a martial arts practitioner.
"Old Tietou, your grandson must be a practicing practitioner. His muscles and tendons are really good."
When Wang Jian turned around and said to Lao Tietou, he couldn't help but Zhu said in surprise.
Old Tietou shook his head and said with a bit of pride, "The little old ancestor is Xu Chu, the personal guard of Emperor Wu of Wei. The men in the clan have been practicing martial arts since they were young. I am not exaggerating. A tiger like you I can kill a hundred."
Wang Jian didn't care and continued to ask curiously, "Old Tietou, since you are General Xu Chu, why did you fall to this point?"
< p> Lao Tietou's face slowly darkened, and he said with a hint of silence, "We are a side branch. We have been separated from the ethnic group for several generations. The glory of the family is inherited by those direct descendants."This is true for all aristocratic families. Only direct descendants can inherit the position of head of the family and enjoy the wealth accumulated by the family for generations.
When Wang Jian saw such a strong person, how could he let him go, "Old Tietou, your grandson is just fighting with you to cherish his talents, why not hang out with me."
Old Tietou Tietou waved his hand and said, "The prince is from a wealthy family, but he is not so lucky."
Xu Hu, who had been silent, turned around and lowered his head slightly and said, "Grandpa, I feel it from this younger brother. A sense of goodwill."
"Strike hard and don't talk nonsense." The old man turned around and glared at Xu Hu.
They all want to poach you, how can I do it without some goodwill?
Wang Jian didn't mind being called his younger brother. He was indeed younger than Xu Hu in terms of age.
"Old Tietou, please think about it. I have recently been engaged in a business to make a lot of money. Your grandson is following me. He doesn't dare to ensure his success. It's okay to make a small fortune." Wang Jian said seriously. Di said to Lao Tietou.
Lao Tietou waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it, what else do you want to build this time."
Wang Jian saw that his attitude was more determined, so he gave up temporarily, so Tell me the purpose of your visit.
"Help me build 17 more sets of large iron rods and pulleys. I need them urgently!"
"Brother, I will charge you 2,500 yuan for one set, 17 sets in total....Let me do the math, old man? ”
“A total of 42 pieces and 500 yuan. I don’t have that much money on hand right now. I’ll give it to you in a few days.” "
Old Tietou was stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Jian like a fool.
"Brother, are you fooling my old man? 42 strings is not a small number! "Old Tietou looked like you were joking.
Wang Jian said seriously, "Old Tietou really didn't fool you. I have developed a new well-drilling technology, and I can drill a solid well in an hour. well! "
"Really? "Old Tietou looked at Wang Jian seriously and asked in disbelief.
Wang Jian nodded, "Really, Majiazhuang has drilled 12 wells. If you don't believe you can follow me, Let's go and watch together. "
After looking at Wang Jian seriously for a while, Lao Tietou said, "Okay, I can trust your character. "
The old iron head walked to the piled iron materials in the corner and looked at them, and then said, "There is not much iron material left. If you earn a few taels of silver from your kid, you will spit it out so soon."
After pondering for a while, the old man waved his hands and said, "You can get 9 sets tomorrow evening, and come back the next day to get 8 sets!" ”
“Thank you very much, Old Tietou!” "Wang Jian said happily.
Lao Tietou waved his hands and pretended to be angry, "Get out of here, get out of here, I've almost wiped out my capital, and I'm tired of looking at you. "
"You kid, remember it. If I don't have any money to give you, I'll ask Huzi to come and get the knife! "
Old Tietou was afraid that Wanjian would be a freeloader, so he said viciously.
"The money will definitely be given. I guarantee it with my personality, so I will come and get it tomorrow. Thank you, Lao Tietou. head! "Wang Jian said gratefully.
"Okay, okay, leave quickly, I'm getting annoyed just looking at you. "Old Tietou pushed Wang Jian out of the door.
There are a lot of things to do today, and any extra second of delay is a waste of time.
Lao Tietou squinted and watched Wang Jian walked out.
He looked back at Xu Hu, shook his head and said sadly, "Hey, I wish you had a brighter mind. "

Xu Hu did not hear his grandfather's words. He swung the big hammer and knocked down regularly. < /p>
The sound of forging was mixed with sparks, like the chirping of cicadas and flying fireflies in the fields in midsummer.
Wang Jian led the bullock cart to Fangshi, preparing to buy a batch of vegetables. < /p>
The newly recruited long-term workers are all refugees who have not had enough to eat for many days. They cannot do the high-intensity work of digging wells without the strength.
The whole village collected 4 thousand yuan last night. , used for daily expenses.
It can be said that he carries all the money in Majiazhuang.
There are many people selling vegetables in Fangshi, except for some servants. Apart from buying meat and vegetables, I didn’t see many ordinary people.
Wang Jian went to several vegetable stalls to inquire about prices.
"Auntie, how do you sell the wok?"
"3 Wen 2 pounds."
Wang Jian took a wilted one from the vegetable pile. He held the dish in front of the stall owner, "Mom, your dish must have been sitting for a long time. It's almost spoiled. I want it all for 1 penny a pound."
"You really have it all." Want it?" the aunt said happily.
"Let's get on the scale now." Wang Jian nodded.
After the aunt weighed all the dishes, she said generously, "Sir, the total is 201 kilograms. Erase the fraction and count it as 200 kilograms."
Wang Jian from Sewing He took out 200 yuan from the sack he made and put it in the aunt's basket. "Aunt, there are 200 yuan in total. Please count it."
After the aunt finished counting, ask her to help move the vegetables to the cart. .
"Sir, I also have 80 kilograms of water spinach and 120 kilograms of sunflower seeds here. They are all given to you at 1 penny per kilogram."
"Sir, I have 150 kilograms of water spinach here. I’ll sell the vegetables to you for 1 penny per catty.”
“Sir, I have...”
Wang Jian asked several stall owners to bid. I took a look at the dishes and found that they were all very good and would not go bad if left for a day or two.
"I want them all, and I will give you the money after weighing them." Wang Jian said to several stall owners who looked expectantly.
Wang Jian loaded a cart full of vegetables and staggered out of the market in his bullock cart under the stunned gazes of many vendors.
"This young man is so generous. He bought 1,000 kilograms of vegetables at once!" A dinosaur in his 30s with a big body and a round waist said regretfully while stamping his feet.
She was reluctant to lower the price at first. When Wang Jian's oxcart could no longer be loaded, she begged Wang Jian for a low price and refused to buy it.
"I've told you 1 cent per catty a long time ago, but you have to hold on to 2 cents per catty!" behind the dinosaur, a thin man with a thin body whispered.
The dinosaur turned around, walked up to the man, lowered his head and held his ears with his hands, gritted his teeth and said, "Shi Zhenxiang, are you itching? What are you talking about?"
p>
"Madam, have mercy on me, it hurts..." The man begged for mercy with a sad face.
The street vendors around are not surprised. This scene happens at least three times a day.
When Wang Jian returned halfway, he saw a dark group of people resting on the grass on both sides of the official road.
The older ones are no more than 30 years old, and the younger ones can just walk.
Sanye Ma and Uncle Jun were surrounded by about a dozen strange men, and they were chatting enthusiastically. Neither of them noticed when Wang Jian approached.
Until Wang Jian stopped next to them, Ma Sanye saw Wang Jian. He quickly stood up and went over to meet him. He took Wang Jian's arm and said to everyone.
"Everyone, this is the big boss of Majiazhuang. The vegetables in the car are for entertaining everyone later.You know, there are pheasants and hares in the village, so take care of them when you come! "
When the old and young at the scene heard that the sacks were filled with vegetables and that there would be meat to eat when they returned home, they licked their chapped and white lips involuntarily.
Seeing the people in the car Qingcai, they finally believed the boss's words, they can have enough to eat in Majiazhuang!
A man in the crowd shouted loudly, "The boss is really alive!" "
Hundreds of random people thanked each other loudly.
"My boss is really a good person. ”
“The boss is kind-hearted and compassionate. "
The sound waves came one after another, and the faint sound of a woman crying with joy could be heard.
