”Little Meng, what has happened? Have you not seen how disgusting that old man's eyes are with only money in them? If it was me, I would pull everything out of him and let him make a fool of himself. ” Du Duwu said from the side.
”That's right, little sister, you're still too naive.” It depended on who it was, but it depended on who it was. The old man in front of us isn't worth our kindness at all.
If you had to blame something, blame it on that fellow for being too greedy. The money that Xiaoqing had given him before was not little, it was enough for an old man like him to spend in ten years. But as for him, he actually wants to ask us for money.
Fang Jiang was also somewhat resentful towards the old man's actions. If he were to say that he could keep the old man to himself, Fang Jiang would not feel angry about it. However, the old man was simply too unsatisfied. At the same time, many unhappiness rose in Fang Jiang's heart.
”Yes, that's right. A greedy person like him should be taught a lesson. ”I think what big brother did is right. Little sister Yao, you should just take away your kindness and give it to the person you should be giving away later. As for this old man, he's not worth it.” Fa Zheng advised.
”Okay, okay.” Hearing their persuasion, Fang Jin nodded his head and did not speak further.
Roughly a quarter of an hour later, under the old man's lead, no one arrived near a small courtyard.
”Everyone, everyone. That was the house in front of them. This old one shall take my leave now. Goodbye. ” After saying that, he turned around and prepared to walk back.
”Hey, you old baldy, where did you get all these people from?” A deep voice rang out from behind the eight of them. A middle-aged man with tanned skin, tight muscles, and a thick beard appeared in front of them.
”Old Titan, don't speak nonsense in front of outsiders. How can this be called lying? They really came to find you, to forge a sword. They're looking for the best swordsmith in the village, you tell me. ” The old man immediately argued.
”You're right. I am indeed the best swordsmith in the village, but have you told them about my rules before? ” The middle-aged man put down the basket on his back. Towards the old man's words, he was not modest at all and honestly accepted it.
”This, this is a matter between the two of you, so it has nothing to do with me.” You guys chat, you guys chat, so I won't be accompanying you guys. ” The old man smiled in embarrassment and quickly walked away.
”Uncle, do you need any conditions to forge a sword?” Fang Jin asked.
”Are you here for the sword?” The middle-aged man didn't answer directly. Instead, he picked up the basket and walked back to his small courtyard.
”Of course, why else would we be here?” Homecoming spoke up from the side.
”Then come with me.” The middle-aged man didn't even look back as he walked forward. Hearing this, no one followed.
They entered the small courtyard and arrived in front of the house. They then followed the middle-aged man to a forging platform in the middle of the yard. The middle-aged man put away the basket and then said to a few people:
”My rule is that everything is up to me. If you want to request a sword, you can. Later on, whatever I tell you to do, you must do it. You cannot complain about it.”
”Hur hur, that's good. This is the first time I've seen someone with such personality like Uncle. ”Speak, what do you want us to do?” The middle-aged man, on the other hand, had aroused no interest at all. To be more precise, he had aroused a strong desire.
He really didn't believe that there was anything that could make it difficult for him to stay.
”Oh, really? You're the first person who agreed to my request so readily. ”Little fellow, don't regret it.” The middle-aged man's face revealed a smile, and he similarly looked at Wu Dai with interest.
”What's there to regret about? Tell me your condition.” No one smiled.
”Alright.” The middle-aged man nodded and looked around the yard, saying, ”Look at my yard, since I don't have time to take care of it, it's already filled with weeds. Please clean up the yard, I want not even a single blade of grass in the yard.”
