She followed the old leader into his study, where her Snow Maple Blade was prominently displayed on the table.
Oh, and there's also an incredibly beautiful knife holder, but it's the kind of knife holder only used for Japanese military swords.
Chen Rou secretly guessed that the knife holder must have been obtained from somewhere by Wang Meng, who didn't know anything about it.
He's really something, using a Japanese-style sword holder for his cavalry sword.
The old leader gestured for Chen Ke to close the door before asking Chen Rou, "Ms. Chen, have you seen that knife?"
Chen Rou said, "Of course."
At this point, the old leader was inclined to believe that the wealthy businessmen from Hong Kong were trying to create a stir and curry favor with him, hoping to get some help in business matters. After all, they had fought against landlords in their generation and had a natural wariness of capitalists. Chen Rou came, but she didn't bring a knife. Her son was really cute, but he was also genuinely wary of her.
He didn't believe that a young woman from Hong Kong could take down two triad bosses and wield this knife. However, he would test her. If she was just all show, he could easily defeat her with a few words.
Of course, on the surface he just smiled and asked, "Ms. Chen, do you know its history?"
Chen Rou smiled and said, "I heard it too. Back then, in order to forge a batch of military knives suitable for cavalry, the army specially selected soldiers from the Tibetan and Miao ethnic groups who had worked in casting to design the shape of the knives. They also found raw materials from the Kunlun Mountains and specially brought snow water from the source of the Three Rivers. They used intense heat to quench the knives, which resulted in this military knife that can cut through iron like mud."
In theory, Chen Ke wouldn't know such history, because although it wasn't exactly a secret, no one had ever specifically passed it down. Just like this knife, once it had fulfilled its purpose, it would either break, be lost, or be treasured by its user. In short, it came from this land and returned to this land. As a cold weapon, it wouldn't have its own dedicated exhibition hall and be treasured like guns or cannons.
But what Chen Rou is talking about now is its true history of forging!
...
If Dad were here, he would definitely know what A-Yuan was trying to do.
The young lady led A-Yuan to the backyard, where there was a small bridge, flowing water, and a few goldfish. But in A-Yuan's eyes, who had seen pandas and butterfly koi, those little goldfish were quite ordinary.
The young lady also had a secret little base here. She took A-Yuan to a tree, picked out a few peanuts and threw them into the tree hole, saying, "Little brother, wait a moment, a little squirrel will come out soon."
A-Yuan hadn't seen the little mouse yet, so while the young lady could wait, he couldn't.
He wanted to leave, not to go home, but because he was anxious to show his things to the young lady. So he kept saying "xifu, xifu" to Secretary An who was with him.
His suit? It's perfectly fine.
So A-Yuan stood up, but after negotiating for a long time without success, he had no choice but to squat down again.
There really was a little squirrel, with a fluffy paw, that suddenly appeared.
The little girl threw in another peanut, and the squirrel grabbed it with its paw and darted away again.
The little girl looked at A-Yuan: "See it, little brother? Isn't it cute?"
Ah Yuan didn't even see it clearly, but he was happy along with his sister, so he stood up and jumped around for her a few times.
Seeing how well-behaved he was, the little girl decided to unleash her ultimate move: "Squat down, squat down, I'll catch it and show it to you in a bit."
But just then, A Yuan saw someone pass by outside the wall.
He stood up, ran over, and gestured with his hands: "xuxu, tutu, tutu... gun!"
It was the captain of the guard here. He was passing by the old commander's yard on business when he heard the voice. He wondered who it was, but when he looked down, he saw the little guy inside the wall hopping around with his head held high.
At that moment, Secretary An suddenly realized that what A Yuan wanted was not a suit, but clothes that he liked.
He insisted on taking the young woman out, not so that he could take her home, but to find his gun at the front gate.
The key to success lies in perseverance and hard work. Although they are young, they have aspirations, which cannot be ignored.
The captain of the guards comforted the little guy, then came in specifically to ask the old commander's secretary to confirm that the child's toys could be brought in. After going around in circles, he finally brought in A Yuan's toy gun.
Ah Yuan was really generous; he took the pretty little pistol and gave it to the young lady, saying, "Xun, Xun for you."
For him, all matter is infinite, so he doesn't care about matter.
The girl gave him a bamboo dragonfly, and he wanted to give her a toy gun in return.
After all that trouble, this was actually A Yuan's real purpose.
Secretary An smiled and said at the opportune moment, "Miss, the gun is a gift from my young master."
The girl's mother was inside the window, watching her daughter intently. She shook her head, indicating that the girl could not accept the gift.
The little girl was a little angry, thinking her mother was being stingy.
But she also warmly pulled Xiao Ayuan over and said, "Come on, little brother, I'll take you to see my gun, let's fight together."
Generally speaking, seven or eight-year-old children and one-year-old children cannot play together.
But Ah Yuan, though small in stature, was clever and full of tricks, so they ended up playing together.
He kept shouting as he ran: "xifu, xifu..."
He still has his war gear, and he wants Secretary An to give it to him immediately so he can continue playing with his tuk-tuk!
The old leader's nanny and daughter-in-law were both in the kitchen, and they were also surprised: "Is that the child of the richest family in the whole country?"
Seeing the woman nodding, he added, "How did you raise him? Such a tiny little thing, yet so clever."
