Li Zhenhua looked at Liu Xiaodong, who was searching for something with his meaty hands. After taking a few steps towards him, he snatched the phone from his hand and locked the screen for him.
“Dongzi, you don’t have to worry about the search. I’ll tell you directly that it won’t be over soon. The matter is..”
Before Li Zhenhua could get to the point, Liu Xiaodong seemed to be anxious and grabbed Li Zhenhua’s arm.
“Damn, does that mean that this matter can really be found online?
What’s going on? Tell me quickly. I’ll vent your anger for you when the time comes.”
Liu Xiaodong looked very loyal as he boasted to Li Zhenhua.
“Don’t. Don’t get yourself involved in it. It’s not worth it.
This matter is considered closed to me. Listen to me first!”
Li Zhenhua was afraid that Liu Xiaodong would do something rash, so he quickly stopped him and explained everything that had happened to Liu Xiaodong recently.
“Damn, I didn’t know this school was so trashy. It’s even a university for Project 322. I feel like I might as well have spent three years in a specialty here.”
Liu Xiaodong sighed and continued, “This matter is really difficult for us to handle.”
Usually, the person in charge of such a position had a rank. It was said to be at the level of the Deputy Directorate. That was almost the same rank as the mayor of our Water City.
It was better for small fries like us not to get involved in this. Don’t send ourselves in when the time comes.
“However, the school really didn’t handle this matter well. They’re even worse than Elder Niu.”
“Alright, it’s good that you know. Us commoners don’t have much power.”
“Look, Dongzi. When I become rich in the future, I will definitely take revenge.”
Li Zhenhua’s anger, which had already calmed down, was once again stimulated during his chat with his good brother. Moreover, the thought of revenge became stronger and stronger.
“Alright, then what will you do in the future? I remember you saying that your dream is to develop good materials and be a materials scientist.
Solving the problem of our Veyron engine not working, then you now ~”
Liu Xiaodong did not continue, but Li Zhenhua knew what Liu Xiaodong meant.
“Hehe, what should we do? What can we do? Of course it’s cold.
I’m in charge of this blacksmith shop now. In the future, I’ll treat it as a private laboratory.
In any case, he would develop it slowly. First, he would think about how to use this blacksmith shop to earn some money and then add some new equipment to the shop.
‘Look at the size of the shop. There’s only one carbon stove. There’s not even an electric stove.’
Therefore, I plan to level up step by step. I believe there will definitely be some development.”
Li Zhenhua told Liu Xiaodong his thoughts.
When Liu Xiaodong heard Li Zhenhua’s plan, he was also secretly thinking about what could earn him a sum of money in the short term.
Moreover, this matter had to be combined with the blacksmith’s shop. This stumped Liu Xiaodong.
Li Zhenhua had no idea what Liu Xiaodong was thinking, but he looked at the fatty opposite him with a serious expression.
It was not appropriate to interrupt him, so he just let him continue to stare blankly while Li Zhenhua packed up his tools.
The sound of palms and flesh colliding entered Li Zhenhu’s ears, followed by a loud scream.
“Ah, shit, that hurts.”
“I say, Fatty, what are you doing?
Why are you slapping your leg so hard? Do you have a grudge against yourself? Do you not want to live comfortably?”
Li Zhenhua looked at the grimacing Liu Xiaodong and teased him.
“Damn, you blacksmith, why are you so unsympathetic?”
“I’m trying my best to find a job so that you can earn money quickly. Look at you, laughing at me.”
Looking at Li Zhenhua’s expression, Liu Xiaodong felt wronged. When Li Zhenhua saw that expression, he was immediately disgusted and almost vomited.
Even though Li Zhenhua was still disgusted by Fatty’s expression, he forcefully suppressed the churning in his stomach and went opposite Liu Xiaodong to apologize to him.
“Okay, Fatty, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t tease you like that. Please tell me what you think.”
Liu Xiaodong also knew that Li Zhenhua was just joking with him. Those words were just an unintentional mistake, so he quickly forgave him.
“Zhenhua, do you know a knife forging competition? This is a knife competition of a global nature. It has a lot of influence.
Every blacksmith in the world wanted to get into this and spar with every high-end blacksmith in the world.
And most importantly, in the clips I watched, the final prize money for this forging competition was quite a lot.
Moreover, I saw that the reputation of the blacksmiths who participated in the competition had increased after they returned.
“Someone even specially hired them to make knives. I think you can develop in this direction.”
At this moment, Li Zhenhua still did not know that there was such a competition. This was something he had never even heard of before. He immediately cast a group of gazes at Liu Xiaodong.
Liu Xiaodong saw Li Zhenhua looking at him like this and immediately explained to him.
“This forging competition only allows the participating blacksmiths to forge a saber and participate in their tests. There are sharpness, armor penetration, and so on.
I didn’t really understand. Anyway, I just took a bunch of things later and got someone to take a knife to it.
If you’re interested, you can go and find out more about the situation.”
“Okay, it’s all about making money anyway. I’ll find out more about it and make a decision later. You said there was a bonus. Is it a lot?”
Li Zhenhua was very interested in what Liu Xiaodong said. He thought that he had nothing to do now anyway.
Since that was the case, he might as well get this done. It was equivalent to finding something for himself to do.
“I heard that there are quite a few. Some time ago, a famous developer came to our county. The manager in charge of the business here is very young, only in his early twenties.
I thought I’d taken him on a tour of the kiln and curried his favor. How could I be given half the material for a new building?
However, he did not expect this person to not be lecherous, but he liked to play with knives, bows, armor, and motorcycles.
‘I found out about this forging competition from him. It’s a good thing I helped out at your house when I was a kid. I know a little about blacksmiths.’
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have a common topic at all. If they couldn’t even talk, they wouldn’t be able to give him any information.
Now, I’ve taken down three-quarters of the mortar in this new building. My old man even praised me for doing this.”
Liu Xiaodong explained to Li Zhenhua how he knew the reason for this forging competition and also told his good brother about his results.
Li Zhenhua looked at the smug fatty opposite him and was happy for him.
“Not bad. You can be considered the best among the rich second-generation heirs. Hehehe.”
“What are you laughing at? I feel like you’re mocking me. Compared to others, I’m not a rich second-generation heir.
If I were a rich second-generation heir, would I still need to drive this 200,000-plus emperor bath?”
Liu Xiaodong, this fatty, was especially sensitive to the words “rich second-generation heir” and directly retorted Li Zhenhua.
