The blacksmith shop in the south of the town introduced by Vericro is called Big Hammer. It is said that the first generation owner of this blacksmith shop was nicknamed Big Hammer. He moved to Bailu Town to escape the war decades ago. When I first came here, I had no money, so I built a stove and helped the fishermen in the town make some fishing equipment. Over time, people used the boss’s nickname Big Hammer as the name of this blacksmith shop.
The current boss is the grandson of the first boss. He is a tall, burly man with a voice as loud as thunder. His name is Mike. The place where the open-air stove was placed has been turned into a large courtyard, with a forged iron furnace with a four-story chimney and a row of large tile-roofed houses. The sound of forging in the tile-roofed houses is constant, and it has become a very busy courtyard. In the workshop, various iron ore, coal, charcoal and other sundries are piled on the ground in the yard. Apprentices and porters come and go.
Verricro called Boss Mike out. He had no choice but to do it. It was too noisy in the yard. If he spoke in a lower voice, he wouldn't be able to hear anything. He had to yell.
Claude gave him a drawing with a crosshair sight and took out the matchlock gun and explained its use. Boss Mike was not interested in what Claude was going to build and install, and what the purpose of this thing was. He just cross-examined it and expressed his concerns and doubts about whether Claude could legally hold a matchlock gun.
However, when Verricro introduced that Mr. Morsan, the administrative director of White Deer Town, was Claude's father, Boss Mike's attitude suddenly became a little attentive. He sincerely expressed his apology and explained that if he did not Knowing Claude's identity, if something happens to this matchlock gun, he will be implicated because there is something made by him on the gun, so he has to cross-examine before he can make a decision, whether to accept this crosshair sight or not. make
Since we already know the father-son relationship between Mr. Morsan and Claude, there is no problem in building this thing. Then Boss Mike carefully checked the drawings designed by Claude, then took a tool and carefully re-measured the diameter of the muzzle of the matchlock gun. After calculating all the data again, he thought there was no problem. The sight was aimed at The device can be built.
However, due to the relatively complex shape of this thing, it is difficult to create a complete outline by hand, so Boss Mike decided to make a mold with plaster and then pour molten iron into it, trying to form it in one go and then repair and polish it by hand. It takes about a week, and the cost is one silver thaler and seven riaso. This is a discount because of Mr. Morsan's sake. It originally cost about two silver thalers according to the market price.
When Claude came out of the big hammer blacksmith shop, he found that he was a pauper again. He had spent all the three silver thalers he had received when he came back from Bailuzhou, and he only had three riyals left. Ask for more. The money was so carelessly spent that in less than ten days, Claude almost spent all of Mr. Morsant's monthly salary from adventure.
The next day, Claude found an opportunity to have a private chat with Bockaar and reiterated the old plan, asking him to find a way to sell the Sullivan gold coin. During the adventure at Bailuzhou, Claude took out five Sullivan gold coins and found a perfect excuse for himself to go to the underground level. Then everyone divided the spoils and got one, and Claude got one more for killing the python.
Now Claude just wants Bockar to sell these extra Sullivan gold coins privately, and have another one as a souvenir like everyone else. Of course, no one knew there were thirty gold Sullivan coins hidden under the bed in his attic.
"You are so brave when you don't have money," Claude sighed: "I didn't know what would happen when I had no money. But now that I have money, I feel a lot less courageous when there is no money around me." I passed by the mutton barbecue in the morning. I didn’t dare to take a second look at the naan cake stall, for fear that I would be tempted by the aroma and buy one to try.”
Bockal rolled his eyes: "Who told you that you like to buy things lavishly when you have money? Let me figure it out. The one silver thaler you spent in the Wakuli store to buy three rags is actually meaningless, no. Talking about the fish bone dagger, the house number and the big fish pen holder are not worth three riyals at all, so you stupidly bought three of them for a silver thaler.
Also, last night you asked Vero to take Vero to the Big Hammer Smithy to order a custom-made sight. It cost one silver taler and seven riyals. Now you don’t have any money around. I don’t even know what to say to you. flower
