Liu Feng left smoothly without any hindrance, nor did he realize that he was being followed.
When he rode his horse back to the main road, he ran into Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao rode a horse alone, saying that he wanted to appreciate the surrounding scenery in the dark. Liu Feng once thought that Zhang Xiaobao should go to the medical hall in the city to take a good look.
The guards who followed Zhang Xiaobao pretended to be a temporary commercial guard team. They wanted to get in and see if they could get any work. They also ran into Liu Feng and Zhang Xiaobao.
When there are more people, it becomes lively. Liu Feng feels the most reliable. He doesn't want to go outside at night, especially not to eat dry cakes that he carries with him.
The temporary guard team was very enthusiastic in inviting him to eat with Zhang Xiaobao, and the food was hot stew. There was no way, they were not prepared enough when they came, and it was impossible to make other dishes.
"Brother Liu, it seems that your business is finished. After returning to the city, I have time to go to my place. I opened a new stationery shop to see if there is anything you like. I will pay you."
Zhang Xiaobao's impression of Liu Feng is very good, and he warmly said to Liu Feng on the horse when he finished his meal and was on the road.
Liu Feng was very surprised. He didn't expect that this person who likes to see the scenery is still a businessperson. When we met before, the other party seemed to say that he was an official. Is it true that all the presenters are now doing business
Doubtful Liu Feng nodded, then shook his head, and said, "Go to your place and see what you can do. Just buy things. I'm not a scholar, but your stationery shop specializes in selling the four treasures of the study?"
Zhang Xiaobao smiled under the light of the team's torches, and explained: "More than that, the store of the Four Treasures of the Study buys a lot of things, and I sell more."
"I have something, you can tell me about it." Liu Fenglai became interested. He also knew that selling the Four Treasures of the Study was not only about pen, ink, paper and inkstone. There were also many other things, such as dripping water for inkstones and pens. The pen holder and so on.
Generally, the shops are almost the same now, but listening to the other party, it seems that there are better things, I don't know if I can use it.
Zhang Xiaobao had already arranged Liu Feng’s future affairs. Hearing Liu Feng’s question, he nodded and said: “There are indeed many, and I can’t finish talking about them tomorrow. In addition to buying a few things commonly used by literati, I also sell them. Craftsman's stuff.
There is a horizontal ruler, which is a tool to see if a plane is flat. You know, you need a hanging wire to build a house. My thing is attached to the plane of something with a small bubble in the middle. The bubble is in a kind of water. As long as something is not level, the bubble will be sideways, which is very useful. "
Not to mention what Zhang Xiaobao said, Liu Feng had seen him, and he had never heard of it before, with a curious look in his eyes, and asked, "Apart from this thing, what else is there?"
"Yes, for example, a tool caliper is a ruler, and there is a gadget at one end. I call it a vernier caliper. It is very convenient when measuring the inner diameter and outer diameter of a thing. My caliper is also highly accurate. The materials are good, not to mention it is generally used to measure things, even for drawing."
Zhang Xiaobao continued. He had heard Liu Feng’s communication with others about cannibalism, what are the artillery manufacturing drawings, and they are still parallel with two holes, and what data are there. Depending on the situation, Liu Feng should have some knowledge, otherwise It is not easy to lie.
No matter where Liu Feng learned from, at least it shows that he has a good background. If so, then support him with a set of tools. It is not necessary to let him use this set of tools to do anything earth-shattering, just to let him have a living. Do.
Sure enough, Liu Feng seemed very happy when he heard that he could make a picture. He hesitated and said, "Is there really such a thing? How about wood? Is it expensive? How do I usually maintain it?"
Otherwise, it's not easy to pretend to be a deceptive technician, Liu Feng apparently asked as a technician without knowing it.
"Wood? I have wooden rulers, but most of them are used by ordinary people. The vernier calipers are made of stainless steel. If you charge them at a cost price, you will only receive 20 yuan. If they are replaced by others, I will not sell them. The calipers are highly accurate. They must not be exposed to water, salt or vinegar, or the air is too humid.
But Brother Liu, don’t worry. When you get to my shop, you will look at other things. Finally, I will give you a set of tools for maintenance. I also have binoculars, which are very useful. "
Zhang Xiaobao hasn't opened the store yet, but there is no need to worry. Someone in the team has already sent a telegram secretly to the back place. Now it is estimated that some people in the city are starting to find a place.
Regardless of the time it was midnight, the procedures and other procedures were still able to go all the way smoothly, even if the governor stamped by the state capital, the governor got up.
Zhang Xiaobao said it was easy, but Liu Feng heard it not at all. He was already surprised by what kind of calipers, and ordinary people can have stainless steel? It's only twenty essays, and even more bizarre is the telescope.
I've heard of this thing myself, and I can think of scenery far away as close, but most people absolutely can't get it.
Suddenly, Liu Feng felt that he had encountered a liar, just like he had deceived many cannibals. He didn't expect that this person, such as a cook, merchant, or lieutenant, was also a liar.
Not happy in his heart, Liu Feng was silent for a while, and urged the horse a little bit to make the horse move faster, expressing his dissatisfaction in this way.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't seem to notice it, and he was still talking next to Liu Feng.
"I also have a medical microscope at my place. The accuracy is not very high, but it's not bad. It can be used to observe the slices. Don't you know the slices? For example, if you want to see the inside of a leaf, just put it Cut it open, put it between two glass slides, smear some other things, and then take it under a microscope to see it very clearly.
There is also a complete set of drawing tools in our shop. Whether you draw a square or a circle, you can complete it in the blink of an eye. Add pencils with different ingredients. You can also use it to draw sketches when you are free. You should have seen it Bar? "
Liu Feng listened and forgot that he was being deceived. Following Zhang Xiaobao's words, he nodded unconsciously.
Suddenly, he reacted again, showing a sneer, and asked cooperatively: "Do you have a more accurate scale? It can weigh small weights."
"You're asking the right person. Yes, it's more accurate than those used to make medicinal materials. There are a lot of weights. Let me tell you this. If you want, you can buy it from my store. To make anything you can see on the market today, including blowtorches, glass test tubes of various shapes, and chemical agents generally controlled by the Ministry of Engineering."
Zhang Xiaobao stood tall and looked very confident, the enthusiasm on his face remained unchanged.
"Okay." Liu Feng said two words faintly, and then he stopped talking, treating Zhang Xiaobao as an unreal person. He had only met twice in total, and said that he was looking at the scenery outside, and he caught someone. Lie, what you said you can have
"Brother Liu doesn't believe it?" Zhang Xiaobao asked.
"Believe, Brother Zhang said there must be, and I believe if you say you have a pistol now." Liu Feng's tone was obviously wrong.
Zhang Xiaobao smiled disapprovingly: "It's dawn when I go back, so I can speed up and get to the place in the morning. Brother Liu will know by then."
"Okay, I'll wait." Liu Feng speeded up as expected.
Zhang Xiaobao began to talk to Liu Feng about other things again, the scenery, properties, and humanities of the places he had been to.
Therefore, Liu Feng underwent a lot of pressure. While treating Zhang Xiaobao as a liar, he listened carefully when Zhang Xiaobao said it, because many things that Zhang Xiaobao said seemed to be true.
After the daylight started to dawn, Liu Feng was very suspicious. If "Brother Zhang" who was chattering beside him and still not tired until now continued to talk to himself for a while, he would have the disease in his head, it would be too torturous.
Zhang Xiaobao finally stopped talking at this moment. He had secretly taken the medicine to moisturize his throat twice.
In fact, Zhang Xiaobao said these things for a purpose. He noticed that Liu Feng had a sense of anger in his heart, whether it was sullen or ambition, but the object of his anger was obviously the people in their village who had despised him before.
This is not good, it will make people become extreme, usually have less contact with things, and it is not good for the body to spend all their thoughts on anger.
Talking to him about the outside world will broaden his vision and naturally broaden his mind. When he is shown the things in the stationery store, I believe that after a while, he will find that his previous anger was very stupid.
A person in the house always feels that the view in front of him is not good, so open the window to see the more beautiful scenery outside.
When the team returned to Yizhou City, 13 hours had passed since Zhang Xiaobao came out, Liu Feng showed a look of sleepiness, Zhang Xiaobao and the guards were better, after all, they had received training and were able to cope with the current situation.
"Ah, I'm back, Brother Liu, have breakfast together?" Zhang Xiaobao invited.
Liu Feng wanted to sleep now, but he couldn't even think about eating. He shook his head.
"Since Brother Liu won't eat, I won't eat anymore. First, go to my place to look at things, and then sleep for a while at my place." Zhang Xiaobao invited again and pointed to the front with his finger. There was a sign on it. With the five words "Magic Stationery Store".
Liu Feng looked in the direction pointed by Zhang Xiaobao, and was stunned. When he came out yesterday, he remembered clearly that there was no such shop at all. It turned out that the shop was a food seller. Did he go to the wrong place
Not only was he surprised, but the people who wanted to come over to buy food in the morning were also stunned. They were used to having a food store in this location. Why did it change overnight
"Brother Liu, go and see?" Zhang Xiaobao invited again.
Liu Feng looked dumbfounded, and followed Zhang Xiaobao to the door. The two of them got off their horses. The store door was pulled open from inside. A man dressed as a servant appeared and said to Xiaobao: "My boss, are you back?"
"Come back, come back, do things well, Brother Liu, please!" Zhang Xiaobao raised his hand to make a false invitation and brought Liu Feng, who was still in a daze, into the store.
There are a lot of glass counters in the store, and inside are some things that Zhang Xiaobao said on the road.
Liu Feng walked over, picked up the binoculars in the most conspicuous position, looked in front of him, then opened his eyes twice, and asked Zhang Xiaobao, "Brother Zhang, do you know people from the Zhang family?"
