Chapter 9 I'm here to grow vegetables for you, not to cook

    Because Cheng Duo first bought tools, they first went to the blacksmith's blacksmith shop in Niujia Village. When passing by a big mansion that looked good, Cheng Duo found that there were white lanterns and white cloth hanging in front of the house, and a thin layer of paper money was sprinkled on the ground. Some of the paper money has been soaked in rain and dried, and it is incompletely glued to the ground, giving a gloomy and depressing scene...

    "What's going on in this house?"

    Shan Wazi whispered: "This is Master Niu's house, I heard that he offended him. Bandit, more than a dozen members of the family were killed..."

    Shan Wazi felt a little cold here, and unconsciously quickened his pace.

    Cheng Duo was thoughtful after listening. No wonder the villagers were so scared when he first went to the village. The bandits here are too lawless. Speaking of chaos, it would be even more chaotic in the apocalypse, but there are still some controls on the surface of each base, at least in the bases, this kind of massacre will not happen.

    "Does the government care?"

    "I don't know about that." Shan Wazi's eyes moved: "But I once heard my father chat with the uncle who worked with them. They said that the government still accepts the filial piety of those bandits..."

    But his father did not Let him inquire, afraid that his children will go out and talk nonsense.

    That is possible. The collusion between officials and bandits is normal in a society where the county magistrates can be the local emperors in ancient times.

    The two came to the blacksmith shop. The shop was full of everything, such as scissors, kitchen knives, iron pots, hoes, shovels... everything.

    However, the ancient blacksmith shops are still different from the modern daily necessities shops selling finished products. Things like kitchen knives, hoes, and shovels are placed on the shop without wooden handles, and customers need to buy them back and make them themselves.

    Cheng Duo bought a copy of everything he needed. Ironware was not cheap in ancient times. It cost Cheng Duo three taels and five hundred wen to buy a set.

    Because he bought a lot at one time, he was a big customer, and the blacksmith even gave him a basket for him to take it easily.     Cheng Duo carried the iron pot to his back, and suddenly asked the blacksmith

    , "Do you have weapons like knives or bows and arrows for sale here?"

How dare I fight, it's not like I'm going to die?"

    Cheng Duo almost knew from his expression, if someone paid a lot of money, he could definitely beat him secretly. Just look at yourself and don't dare to accept it.

    "To tell you the truth, I'm a hunter. I just bought weapons to hunt in the mountains, nothing else."

    Niu Blacksmith nodded, his expression softened a little, but he still didn't say anything.

    Cheng Duo is not reluctant, let's talk about it later. He has now bought an axe, a hatchet, and a pocket knife for skinning, which is enough for the time being.

    After buying ironware, Cheng Duo went to the adjacent carpenter's house to order doors and windows, tables, chairs, benches, beds, cabinets and other furniture. Especially the bed, Cheng Duo has had enough of the days of sleeping in the wind, and he can live a little more comfortably, and he is willing to spend more money.

    After that, Cheng Duo originally planned to buy clothes, bedding and quilts, but Shan Wazi told him that they had no finished products here. The weavers only weave the cloth, and every household buys it and sews it.
