The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

While Lin Nanyue was trying her best to escape to the county town to find Lin Qiuer, the man in black followed her closely.

At this time, Lin Qiuer looked leisurely and contented, savoring the signature dishes at Wanfulou and tasting a cup of fruit wine which was praised as one of the top three in the county.

"Can this level of food be considered the signature dish of one of the top three restaurants in the county?"

Lin Qiuer gently shook the ceramic cup in her hand, and the shallow fruit wine at the bottom of the cup swayed with her movement. She frowned slightly and opened her mouth to take a sip.

The fruit wine tastes sour and astringent, and the taste makes people frown.

This made Lin Qiuer look down on the wine here. She smiled contemptuously and said, "Changqing, you said this fruit wine is brewed by the brewery in the capital city, and you can only buy one barrel a month?"

Chang Qing nodded and answered with a little pride, "Yes, Miss Lin. This fruit wine is brewed by a famous winery in the capital city. It is very precious."

After hearing this, Lin Nanye also tried a sip, but he also felt that it didn't taste good. He couldn't help but mutter, "What's so good about this wine? The wine that the men in our village drink is much better than this."

Chang Qing chuckled and shook his head. "Of course there is no such wine in the village. But Master Lin, do you know that this small cup of wine costs five taels of silver? This is enough for an average family to live on for a month."

Lin Qiuer shrugged. She couldn't agree with the value of this wine, but she decided to remain silent until she could brew a wine that surpassed the one in the city.

Since the wine and food did not meet Lin Qiuer's expectations, she ate only half full in disappointment, and the rest was taken care of by Changqing and Lin Nanye.

Unlike Changqing, Lin Nanye has always lived a simple life in the village, and the food here is delicious to him.

After they finished eating, Changqing volunteered to pay the bill.

After leaving Wanfulou, Lin Qiuer gained more confidence in opening a store and doing business in the future.

She asked Changqing to lead the way to the clothing store, and selected four or five different sets of clothes for the two brothers Lin Nanyue and Lin Nanyue respectively, and even selected a few sets of clothes for herself, her sister-in-law, her mother and Baoer.

Considering that they might encounter dangers next, they had to go without weapons. In order to choose weapons suitable for the three brothers and sisters, they went to the blacksmith shop again.

When Lin Qiuer stepped into the blacksmith's shop, she was forced to take a few steps back by the oncoming heat wave.

The blacksmith inside was shirtless, swinging a hammer to forge weapons.

The walls of the blacksmith's shop are hung with all kinds of weapons, including knives, guns, swords, sticks, etc.

Lin Qiuer tried them one by one, and finally chose a long sword that was about the same length as her arm. The blade of this long sword was only half the width of a palm, but there was a long iron chain hanging on the handle. She waved it a few times and felt that it felt a little light.

"It would be better if it could be heavier." She thought silently in her heart.

Lin Nanye, on the other hand, preferred the spear. After picking up each spear, he weighed it lightly, then put it down with an unsatisfied look on his face.

"Sir, if you are not satisfied with the finished products, we can still make custom ones. But the price will be much higher." The owner of the blacksmith shop saw that Lin Qiuer and Lin Nanye were not satisfied with the finished products, so he kindly reminded them.

"Okay, then tell us how much the custom-made price is?" Lin Qiu'er still held the long sword in her hand, swinging it lightly. It felt like an adult playing with a toy, not a handy weapon at all.

The shopkeeper was stunned when he saw that the 40-pound long sword and the 60-pound long spear were like nothing in the hands of Lin Qiu'er and Lin Nanye. "Miss, Master, be careful. Swords and spears have no eyes. Be careful not to hurt yourself or others."

What he feared most was that they would fail and the swords and guns would hit him.

Lin Nanye laughed and said, "Don't worry, this amount of weight is nothing to us brothers and sisters."

"As long as the shopkeeper can make it, we will buy it." Lin Qiu'er was worried that the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop would not be able to make weapons that would suit the feel of the brother and sister, so she said it in advance.

At this time, the shopkeeper also saw that the brother and sister were gifted and not ordinary people, so he answered respectfully, "The spear in your hand, we can make it weigh 200 kilograms. And the long sword in your hand, we can probably only make it weigh 120 kilograms."

"Why are the weights of the spear and the sword different?" Lin Nanye asked with some confusion.

Lin Qiu'er looked at the long chain on the handle of the long sword in her hand and roughly understood the reason. "Is it because the long chain on the handle of the long sword is more difficult to make, so it affects the weight?"

The shopkeeper nodded and praised, "Miss, you are really smart. You guessed our difficulties at once. It is true that the craftsmanship and material costs of a long sword are higher than those of a spear, and it is also more difficult to make, so the price is correspondingly higher. However, our blacksmith shop has always been fair and honest. There will be no discounts on materials and craftsmanship, so please rest assured."

Chang Qing interrupted, "Boss, we have great faith in your integrity and craftsmanship. Therefore, please use the best materials and craftsmanship to make these two weapons. These two are our distinguished guests in the Gu Mansion."

When the shopkeeper heard that the two men were the distinguished guests of the Gu Mansion, his attitude immediately became more respectful. "Young man, don't worry. Our blacksmith shop has always been adhering to the principle of honest business, otherwise it would not have been able to operate here for so many years. Don't you agree?"

Lin Qiuer nodded, believing that the character of most people in this world was still trustworthy.

"Then you should calculate the total price of the swords and guns made according to the maximum weight."

The shopkeeper immediately returned to the counter and started to calculate quickly with an abacus. After a moment, he returned to Lin Qiuer and Lin Nanye and told them that the two weapons would cost a total of two thousand taels of silver.

"Is it so expensive?" Lin Qiuer was a little surprised.

Lin Nanye had no idea how much silver it was, but when he heard Lin Qiuer's sigh, he said, "Little sister, this spear is actually pretty good. There's no need to spend more silver to make another one."

"A well-fitting spear is like a capable partner who can save you from danger at the critical moment." Lin Qiuer explained to Lin Nanye the importance of a well-fitting weapon.

After that, regardless of Lin Nanye's wishes, he took out a banknote from his pocket, counted out two thousand taels of silver, and threw it to the shopkeeper, "When can I get the finished product?"

The shopkeeper took the banknote and smiled widely, "I will immediately arrange for a blacksmith to forge the young lady's long sword and long spear. It will be completed in about half a month."

"Boss, consider this long sword as a gift." Lin Qiuer said as she fiddled with the chain of the long sword in her hand.

The shopkeeper's face suddenly changed from a smiling face to a bitter face. "My lady, every weapon in our blacksmith shop is made of real materials. The profit from your order of these two weapons is not as much as the materials for the long sword in your hand. I really can't afford it, I can't afford it."

With reluctance, he handed the banknote in his hand to Lin Qiuer and said, "Why don't you go to another blacksmith shop to make weapons." After saying that, he turned away with a sad look on his face.

Lin Nanye looked at Lin Qiuer and quietly put the spear in his hand back to its original place.

Chang Qing opened his mouth and wanted to say that in fact, as long as Lin Qiuer asked, she could choose any weapon in the blacksmith shop just for the favor of saving the lives of the old and young masters of the Gu family.

Lin Qiuer looked at Chang Qing's open mouth and shook her head at him, signaling him not to speak.

Chang Qing saw that Lin Qiuer's intention to stop him was so obvious that he immediately closed his open mouth.
