Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence

On the bustling West Street, Su Yu walked briskly, feeling particularly relaxed. After all, all the urgent matters had been properly arranged.

He confidently entrusted the custom-made fitness equipment and toothpaste packaging to experienced carpenter Chen. Since the fitness equipment was complex and took a long time to make, they agreed to pick it up in seven days.

Since the quantity of toothpaste boxes was small and only two were ordered, it was agreed that the goods could be picked up in three days.

As for the exquisite ceramic toothpaste jar, it was commissioned to be made by a skilled craftsman recommended by Carpenter Chen, who was also scheduled to pick it up in three days.

When all items are ready, it will be the day to discuss business cooperation with Golden House. Thinking of this, Su Yu couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

He led Xie An and Xie Nanxing and strolled leisurely through the streets and alleys.

Along the way, they tasted various delicious snacks, stopped to admire the dazzling array of goods, and laughed and talked happily.

As luck would have it, at this moment, a crisp and powerful sound of a hammer hitting iron came into his ears. The sound seemed to have some kind of magic, which made Su Yu involuntarily stop moving forward.

He raised his eyes slightly and looked towards the source of the sound, only to find that this was actually a blacksmith shop.

The shop is not big, but it looks a bit old and dilapidated.

In the center of the shop stood a blazing furnace, presumably used to heat iron. Behind the furnace stood a simple bungalow, presumably a residence.

Next to the fire, there is an old-fashioned bellows. By pulling the bellows, the temperature and intensity of the fire can be cleverly controlled.

At this moment, a young child was squatting on the side, pulling the bellows with great effort. Judging from his serious and focused look, he was obviously an apprentice in this shop.

Turning my gaze towards the blacksmiths, I saw two burly, muscular men holding huge hammers, alternately hitting a piece of iron that was burning red.

Both of them were shirtless, and sweat slid down their foreheads like a spring, forming crystal clear lines of water, flowing down their cheeks, gathering into a trickle at their necks, and finally soaking into the strong chests that shone like bronze.

The middle-aged man, who was a little older, held a pair of pliers in his left hand, firmly clamping the iron block; in his right hand, he held a small and exquisite hammer, constantly tapping the surface of the iron block.

Judging from his skillful movements and calm and confident demeanor, this person must be a well-deserved master chef.

I saw the younger man holding the huge hammer firmly and concentrating on hitting the object in front of him.

Each swing of the hammer was full of power and rhythm, and the other person precisely matched his rhythm, raising or lowering the hammer at the right time.

The movements between the two were smooth and natural, as if they had been rehearsed countless times, and their tacit understanding was flawless.

Su Yu, who was standing by, was deeply attracted by this scene, and his eyes were involuntarily fixed on them.

He secretly sighed in his heart: Although this traditional handicraft looks quite simple and primitive, it actually contains endless wisdom and practicality! For me, this operation may seem a little too simple and direct;

However, it is not easy to truly master the essence and use it skillfully - it not only requires the operator to have rich practical experience, but also requires a high level of skills!

At this moment, the elderly master carefully placed the newly forged ironware into the sink.

Instantly, a sharp "squeak" sound was heard, accompanied by a thick white smoke that suddenly rose up. When the smoke gradually dissipated, the entire quenching process had been successfully completed.

Su Yu stood there quietly and observed for a moment, then stepped into the small shop.

He looked around curiously, carefully examining the various tools and semi-finished products placed around him, trying to discover more about the secrets of this ancient craft...

Most of the items in the shop were iron pots and farm tools, such as plows, rakes, hoes, pickaxes, sickles, etc.

There are also iron pots, kitchen knives, spatulas, scissors for daily use, as well as door knockers, rivets, door latches, etc.

But he didn't see a sword. Su Yu couldn't help but ask the older master curiously: "Master, don't you have a sword?"

The old master stopped what he was doing and stepped forward to greet him.

He looked closely and saw a group of three people coming towards him. The first one to ask questions was a young man. He was quite wealthy, a little fat, but still strong.

The gorgeous clothes he wore were made of fine materials and were finely tailored, which only made him look noble and extraordinary. He also exuded a unique aura, as if it was innate, which was hard to describe, but it inspired awe in people, making him dare not neglect it at all.

Following closely behind him were a man and a woman who were also dressed in silk and satin clothes. Both of them showed great respect for the young man, probably treating him as their master and serving him.

The man was handsome and had delicate features, and the woman was a pretty little girl. Judging from her appearance, she must be the servant girl beside the young man.

The master carefully looked at everyone in front of him and thought to himself: Even this servant's clothes and manners are so elegant and refined, it is obvious that this young man must be an extraordinary person.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lower his posture and become more respectful and humble.

He quickly responded, "Yes, yes, I just forged a fine sword a few days ago and it hasn't been sold yet!"

He then added, "Since relatively few people buy swords, they usually need to be ordered in advance to get the one they want!"

As he spoke, he had already begun to direct the young blacksmith apprentice to go into the house to get the sword.

After hearing the order, the apprentice immediately turned and ran towards the back room. Not long after, he hurried back with the sword in hand and handed it to Su Yu respectfully.

Su Yu reached out to take the sword, and saw that the young man seemed to be holding it with ease. However, when he actually grasped the hilt of the sword, he immediately felt a heavy weight. He couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and estimated that the sword must weigh more than 30 pounds!

Looking closely at the sword in his hand, he saw that its appearance was simple and rough, and it was obviously not made using the "carburizing" process.

Because of this, the sword has relatively low hardness, poor wear resistance, and is extremely easy to deform.

However, it must be admitted that the sword has a slender and graceful shape, a broad and thick blade, and its craftsmanship is indeed exquisite and delicate. The patterns carved on it are even more exquisite and amazing.

It’s a pity that this kind of sword is not the ideal type in Su Yu’s mind.
