Yan Haobo winked, and Yan Chengcai blushed and shook his shoulders.
Only then did Ouyang Ming see that there was a big luggage on his back.
He is no stranger to such luggage, because he basically receives one from Sui Hezhi every ten days.
Turning around, he glanced at Sui Hezhi. The guy smiled mischievously and said quickly: "Brother Ou, this is a gift from Chief Yan Huo and others. Please accept it."
Ouyang Ming frowned slightly and said, "Brother Sui, you don't get reward for your merits... Why do these two give me such a big gift?"
He secretly murmured in his heart that this Yan Haobo turned out to be a fire chief.
In the military camp, ten people are a fireman and a hundred people are a team. If they can command more than five hundred people, they can form a battalion of their own. Of course, the number of people in each battalion is different, and the good and bad are mixed, and the gap is huge.
Sui Hezhi is a member of Chen Yifan's personal guard, and his military strength is a bit higher than that of ordinary fire commanders. However, since Yan Haobo is also a member of the Guards and a fire chief, he is probably more powerful than Sui Hezhi.
As for Yan Chengcai, although he has not joined the Guards, judging from the tone of his words, he seems to be very confident about it, which should not be underestimated.
However, after knowing their identities, Ouyang Ming also vaguely understood their purpose.
Yan Haobo coughed lightly and said: "Master Ou, we are here to visit, please forgive me. It's just..." He glanced at his nephew beside him and said: "Master Ou, after a while, the general will open up the personal guard. From then on, Select ten brothers from the Western Camp to join. This is an opportunity for the Prime Minister, so I ask the Master to make it happen."
Ouyang Ming frowned slightly and said, "In military competitions, are we still allowed to wear equipment?"
He knew Chen Yifan quite well and knew that this general was extremely fair and could not tolerate any sand in his eyes. If he rashly provides equipment, I don’t know whether it will be a blessing or a curse.
Yan Haobo was startled and asked in surprise: "Why can't we wear equipment?" He shook his head and said with a smile: "It turns out that Master is worried about this, so there is no need for it." He explained: "We are all soldiers, and we are always ready We are going to the battlefield. Is there any reason not to wear equipment on the battlefield? We wish our armors were lighter and stronger, and we wish our swords were sharper."
Ouyang Ming's face turned slightly red. This was indeed the truth. He had never thought of it for a while.
He coughed lightly and said, "What do you want me to forge when you come to me?"
Yan Haobo's uncle and nephew looked at each other, and their eyes lit up. Before they came here, they were mentally prepared to be rejected because they never expected that Master Ou would be so easy to talk to.
However, they didn't know that Ouyang Ming was also thinking about his little Jiujiu at this moment.
Yan Chengcai raised his hand to Ouyang Mingyi and said, "Master Ou, it would be great if I could have a saber like Uncle Sui's."
Ouyang Ming was startled and said in surprise: "You want attribute equipment?"
Now he has understood the rarity and value of attribute equipment, especially attribute sabers, which are very popular in the military camp, and are even more popular than high-grade whiteboard equipment.
Isn't it a bit whimsical to get a piece of attribute equipment just because the other party brought a beast to your door
Yan Chengcai waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, it's not..." He blushed and said, "I just want the one Uncle Sui had earlier."
Only then did Ouyang Ming realize that what he was interested in was the top quality whiteboard saber.
Although they are both the pinnacle of good quality, the value of the whiteboard and attributes are vastly different.
Glancing at the luggage on the ground, Ouyang Ming smiled slightly and said, "Is this gift not enough?"
Yan Haobo was overjoyed. As long as Ouyang Ming didn't refuse, he would have a chance.
"Don't worry, Master Ou. No matter how many prey you need, leave it to me." Yan Haobo patted his chest and said, "Apart from the prey, the same applies to other things. As long as it is given by Master Ou, I will go all out."
Sui Hezhi glanced at him and sighed inwardly, it seemed that Ouyang Ming would no longer be his unique resource in the future.
Of course, because of the close relationship, he could be brothers with Ouyang Ming, but Yan Haobo and others would not have this opportunity even if they flatter him again.
Ouyang Ming pretended to ponder for a moment and said: "Chang Yan Huo, can your nephew only need a saber to guarantee that he will join the Guards?"
Yan Haobo was startled, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said: "A saber alone can only greatly increase the chance of the Prime Minister joining the Guards." After a pause, he asked cautiously : "Master Ou means..."
Ouyang Ming laughed and said, "Everyone, please come in."
The forging room is the most important working place for a blacksmith, and is generally not open to outsiders. Therefore, Yan Haobo and others would not be angry if Ouyang Ming blocked them at the door for so long.
However, if we want to talk in detail, then crowding the door with a large number of people is not an option.
After everyone entered the forging room, Yan Haobo immediately saw dozens of different pieces of equipment piled in the corner. He thought to himself, Brother Sui really didn't lie to me. Ouyang Ming is a capable master.
The forging room is extremely simple, but no one cares about this.
Ouyang Ming took a look at Yan Chengcai's physique and picked out a piece of armor, a saber and a pair of arm guards from the corner. He originally wanted to grab a helmet or a pair of leggings, but finally put them down.
As an orphan, he deeply understands one thing, that is, things that are too easy to get are often not cherished.
If you want Yan Haobo and others to work for you, the right approach is to take a long-term view and catch the big fish.
"Haha, Brother Yan, do you think these pieces of equipment are suitable?" Ouyang Ming handed the selected items to Yan Chengcai with a smile.
Yan Chengcai was overjoyed and quickly thanked him, but Yan Haobo's expression turned solemn.
Ouyang Ming was so easy to talk to that he even gave him two more pieces of equipment. This was absolutely unreasonable. Even Sui Hezhi didn't have that much dignity.
Yan Chengcai put on the equipment and swiped the knife a few times with his saber. The look on his face that he couldn't put it down showed that he was absolutely satisfied.
"Uncle, these are all high-quality equipment! Well, it should be high-quality equipment, right?" Yan Chengcai said excitedly.
Ouyang Ming raised his eyebrows and said: "The best quality is better? Haha, if it is not the best quality, would I be embarrassed to take it out?"
Sui and Zhi all let out a breath of cold air, which was so loud that it was boundless. However, these three pieces of top quality equipment made even Yan Haobo's eyes turn red when he saw them.
With a long sigh, Yan Haobo stared at Ouyang Ming and said, "Master Ou, if you have anything to do, please tell me to come down!"
Since Ouyang Ming is willing to bleed like this without being rewarded for his merits, he naturally has something to ask for. But Yan Haobo was determined, no matter how difficult it was, he would do it beautifully.
Not to mention these three top quality treasures on my nephew's body, just being able to be related to Ouyang Ming can give him enough motivation.
Ouyang Ming was not polite and said bluntly: "Chang Yan Huo, I heard that your personal guards will go hunting in the dense forest every ten days."
Yan Haobo quickly said: "Exactly, if Master Ou needs more prey, I will take care of everything."
Ouyang Ming shook his head and said: "Yan Huo Zhang, of course I like to eat and drink, but I also want to see how you hunt. If you can take me with you when you enter the dense forest, I would be very grateful."
Although he entered the dense forest during this trip, he only wandered around the periphery and did not dare to go deep into it.
Because he knew that the danger deep in the jungle was not something he could resist. Besides, he had no previous experience of surviving in the jungle, so entering rashly was definitely not a good choice.
However, if an experienced person takes him into the forest a few times, and after he has accumulated enough experience, he can try to go deeper on his own.
Yan Haobo was startled, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, and said: "Master Ou, the dense forest is a dangerous place. Even if we enter and encounter powerful beasts, we may be injured occasionally. If you go with us , I’m afraid the general won’t agree.”
Ouyang Ming rolled his eyes and said, "Who asked the general to agree? Just hide it from him!"
Yan Haobo and others looked at each other, speechless.
Ouyang Ming stretched out his hand and said, "Chang Yan, look at the equipment there. They are all of the highest quality. If you can take me there once, I am willing to give you three of them as a reward. How about that?"
Yan Haobo and others were greatly moved. If there was only a handful of high-quality peak equipment, they might still refuse. But three at a time...
Yan Haobo immediately saw the burning look in the eyes of Sui Hezhi and his nephew. He knew very well that if this matter spread, even if he refused, the other fire chiefs would rush forward like hungry wolves preying on prey. .
Stomping his feet fiercely, Yan Haobo said: "Master Ou, since you are so determined, I will take on this responsibility. But..." He pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that Master Ou is also practicing martial arts recently?"
Ouyang Ming nodded and said, "I did learn a little bit."
Yan Haobo said in a deep voice: "Then let Master Ou have a few tricks with Cheng Cai and let me see how good master is." He said seriously: "Master, please don't misunderstand. I don't mean to make things difficult, but according to master Your level determines how far you have to go next time you enter the jungle.”
What he said was very clear: safety comes first when entering the dense forest. If Ouyang Ming's strength is strong enough, then it doesn't hurt to go deeper. But if it's just a show of force, then everyone should just take a walk around the outside and come back.
Although once he enters the dense forest, Ouyang Ming will definitely be protected by everyone.
But protecting a weak scholar and protecting a powerful warrior are two completely different things.
Ouyang Ming's eyes brightened slightly and he said with a smile: "It's just what I want. You three, please come with me."
