Early in the morning, when Lu Fei was practicing his swordsmanship in the yard, he found Lu Zhong standing outside and looking at him in a daze. Lu Fei waved at him, and Lu Zhong immediately came over and said, "Young master, what kind of swordsmanship are you practicing?"
Lu Fei said, "This is some self-created swordsmanship. It's not worth mentioning."
Lu Zhong said in surprise, "Young master, you can actually create your own swordsmanship, then you are already very powerful."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "If you want to learn, I can teach you another set of swordsmanship."
Lu Zhong immediately said with joy, "I want to learn."
Lu Fei immediately taught him a set of "Blood Swordsmanship", which was the swordsmanship that he exchanged with his points. He originally planned to teach some powerful subordinates, and now it was just the right time to experiment on Lu Zhong. Fortunately, Lu Zhong's aptitude was not bad, and he was diligent in learning and practicing. Lu Fei taught him a few moves and asked him to practice well, and he would teach him the other moves tomorrow.
After doing this, Lu Fei returned to his room and continued to study the machine. After two days, he had a rough idea. The kinetic energy naturally came from his feet. At this time, Han Shizhen had also finished making the mechanical parts and brought them to his house.
Lu Fei assembled the machine in a yard, and then stepped on it with his feet, just like stepping on a sewing machine. As he stepped on it, the round grindstone installed on the side also turned. Han Shizhen was overjoyed and said, "It's moving, it's really moving." He was a blacksmith, and he knew what this meant. Such a machine would change the whole generation. Han Shizhen praised, "Young master, you are really a genius."
"Activity?" Han Shizhen looked at Lu Fei in confusion.
Lu Fei said, "You'll know in a few days."
Han Shizhen now deeply admired Lu Fei, and immediately went back to make the mechanical parts. At the same time, he ordered people to make kitchen knives, hoes and other things overnight.
A few days later, Lu's Blacksmith Shop hung a new signboard and set off firecrackers in front of the shop. Lu Xin shouted, "Those who are passing by, come and take a look. Today, Lu's Blacksmith Shop is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Buy one get one free, the price is cheap and the quality is excellent. Don't miss this opportunity.
Lu Fei smilingly sat in the teahouse across the street and drank tea. Sure enough, he saw a crowd in front of the door. Kitchen knives and hoes were not consumables. As long as people wanted them, they would come to his shop to buy them. Naturally, they would not go to other blacksmith shops to buy them. As a result, the other blacksmith shops naturally had a bad business. After a long time, they would close down.
What's more, Lu Fei also invited the girls of the Piao Xiang Courtyard to dance in front of the shop. As a result, it attracted a large number of perverts. There were more and more people in front of the blacksmith shop. For a time, this event spread throughout Zhuo County. People who heard about it hurried over to take advantage of it. Lu Fei held this event for three days in a row, and Lu's Blacksmith Shop finally gained some fame. Every piece of equipment he sold was strictly tested, and the quality was absolutely guaranteed. Moreover, the price was lower than other shops. Some blacksmith shops looked at him coldly and thought, "Selling at such a low price, let's see how long you can last."
In fact, Lu Fei's blacksmith machine had been put into use. Its efficiency was greatly improved, and at the same time, it saved a lot of manpower. Saving manpower naturally meant saving expenses, so he could afford it. Some pig iron was constantly sent to the Lu Mansion, and a steady supply of high-quality steel was continuously supplied to the blacksmith shop. Lu Fei also specially selected some people to go out and take the initiative to attract customers. As a result, some of Lu's old customers came again. On this day, Lu Fei was in the shop discussing the next step of the plan when he suddenly saw a dark and cold big man walk into the shop. He was at least 1.8 meters tall, with solid muscles and two steel needle-like beards. His footsteps were steady, and his martial arts were not weak.
The new shop assistant didn't dare to neglect and quickly went forward to greet him. The big man said, "I heard that your shop has a discount, so I came to buy some butcher knives."
The shop assistant said, "Sir, I'm really sorry. Our promotion has ended, but if you want to buy, we'll still give you the cheapest price. What do you think?" Seeing that the big man was silent, the shop assistant hurriedly said, "Sir, don't worry. The quality of the knives in our shop is absolutely top-notch. Moreover, even if you go through the entire city, you won't be able to find a second shop. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask. If there's a shop whose price is lower than ours, we'll give you all the knives for free."
The big man was finally moved and said, "Let me see how your knives are first."
The shop assistant immediately went inside to get the butcher knives. Lu Fei was suspicious and went forward to ask, "May I know this sir's name? I seem to have seen you somewhere before. "
The big man's face was full of doubt. He carefully looked at Lu Fei and said, "This one is Zhang Fei, courtesy name Yide. Where have you seen me before? What's your name? "
Lu Fei was overjoyed and said with a smile, "This one is Lu Fei, courtesy name … courtesy name Pengju. I'm the owner of this shop." He didn't have a courtesy name, but in a hurry, he remembered Lu Fei's courtesy name and blurted it out.
Zhang Fei suddenly understood and said, "As the saying goes, cheap goods don't have good goods. How can your family's knives be sold so cheaply?"
Lu Fei sighed and said, "It's because some unforeseen events happened in my family. My business was taken away by scoundrels and my reputation was ruined. Now, I just want to rebuild my family business. May I know what kind of business brother does?" He knew that Zhang Fei was a butcher, but he still deliberately asked.
Zhang Fei casually said, "I'm a butcher who butchers pigs."
At this time, the shop assistant brought over a butcher knife. Zhang Fei took it and looked at it, saying, "This is indeed a good knife. It's much better than Chen's. I just don't know how good it is at chopping bones."
The shop assistant said, "Let's not talk about chopping bones. Even chopping iron is a piece of cake." As he said that, he pointed to a piece of iron on the ground and said, "Sir, try chopping this piece of iron. If you break it, it's on our shop."
Lu Fei saw that the shop assistant was quite eloquent and knew how to do business. He didn't know where Lu Xin found him. If he were to be trained a little, he would definitely become a pillar of the shop.
Zhang Fei raised the knife and looked at the iron plate. A piece of the iron plate was immediately chopped off. Zhang Fei was moved and said, "This is indeed a good knife." After saying that, he picked up a piece of iron on the ground and looked at it, saying, "I'll buy your knives. I want twenty of them."
"Alright. Sir, please wait a moment. I'll wrap them up for you." The shop assistant turned and left. Lu Fei said, "No need. Wrap them up and send them to this Sir's house."
Zhang Fei said, "My village is still outside the city. I'm afraid it's inconvenient."
Lu Fei waved his hand and said, "It's a small matter. I see that brother's martial arts are quite good. Why don't you come to my house and have a drink or two? We can compare notes."
