The blacksmith shop is located on the west side of Pompeii Castle, next to the grocery store. The grocery store sells firewood, rice, oil and salt, while the blacksmith shop forges farm tools, swords and ironware.
Both shops are exclusively operated by the Pompeii family, and they are also an important source of financial income for the Pompeii family.
There is no way, this is the right of the noble lords in Prussia. The Pompey family can even make their own laws, not to mention these exclusive operations.
Although it was early spring and the weather was cold, there were still people coming and going outside the grocery store and the blacksmith shop, all of them free people who came to buy goods.
These free people took one look at Luther, then automatically separated to both sides, bent down and prepared to kneel down.
Luther has been active in the territory these days, and many villagers know him. Even those who don’t know him have heard of him, the heir of the Pompeii family.
Master Luther is a man who likes to move around and inspect his territory.
He was a very kind person and would often give wheat cakes to the sick and weak.
If compared with his father, old Saul, Luther naturally appears more vivid.
First of all, although Old Thor is powerful in martial arts, he also has fame and prestige, and he is relatively kind to the people in the territory.
But Old Thor was a warrior after all, and the people were more in awe of him than respect for him.
But it was different for Luther. People were still very grateful to him.
Master Luther will definitely become a benevolent lord in the future. It is really great to live in the territory of the Pompeii family.
Of course, the use of manure to fertilize the fields caused some gossip among the people behind his back, but in the eyes of the people, this was all because Master Luther was still young and was a bit rash and naive.
It's harmless.
In short, although Luther has not yet inherited the Territory of Pompeii, in the eyes of the people in the territory, Luther is a kind person and a qualified heir.
Because they were going to the castle, Luther did not bring his guards with him this time. Looking at the people around him who were about to kneel down, Luther waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's so cold, it's not easy for everyone to go out. You don't have to salute, just buy the groceries and go back quickly."
Having said that, Luther walked into the blacksmith shop.
"Master Luther is so kind."
"God will bless the Pompeii family and keep their legacy alive."
The people were filled with gratitude.
Luther entered the blacksmith shop. Outside the shop, people were buying farm tools and being greeted by a young man. Inside the blacksmith shop, a middle-aged man was forging iron.
Ding ding ding, the sound of hammer hitting iron is endless.
The hot charcoal fire was burning, and the uncle was sweating profusely and his face was red.
This is a strong uncle who looks like a bull. He is also very tall, but his appearance is a little disappointing. His only characteristic is that he is a bit fierce.
It is hard to imagine that such a big and strong guy could give birth to a daughter as cute as little Maya.
"Could it be that the child was born by Mr. Wang next door?" Luther had some doubts in his heart.
This middle-aged man is naturally the blacksmith Uncle Bob. The young man looking after the business over there is Bob's eldest son. By the way, there is also a boy pulling the bellows next to him. He is Bob's second son.
Together with Bob's wife and daughter Maya, this is the blacksmith family of Pompeii.
The blacksmiths have been working for the Pompeii family since their ancestors hundreds of years ago. If nothing unexpected happens, the eldest son and the second son will continue to serve Luther.
"Master Luther, why are you here?" After seeing Luther, Bob quickly put down the hammer in his hand and asked with concern.
Bob's two sons also put down their work and saluted respectfully.
"Yes, there is something. Uncle Bob, can we talk about it?" Luther said politely.
"Master Luther, you are too polite. Just tell old Bob if you have anything." Bob patted his chest, and his strong chest muscles collided with his rough big hands, making a bang bang bang sound.
Then Bob told his two sons, put down the hammer, and invited Luther into the room behind the blacksmith shop.
This is the blacksmith's house. The layout is very simple. There is only a table and a few chairs in the hall. Bob's wife doesn't seem to be there, so there is nothing to entertain.
Bob poured a bowl of water for Luther as a treat.
"Master Luther, do you have any instructions?" Bob also sat down and asked Luther across the table.
"Uncle Bob, do you think this can be made?" Luther took out a piece of parchment as if prepared. There was a pattern drawn on the slightly dull but still white parchment.
It is a thing that is considered a plow, but is not quite.
Luther wanted to make a plow, but in fact he had never studied this kind of thing. He could only rely on a little memory and drew this specious thing.
There's no way. Luther was just an ordinary person before he traveled through time. He didn't know everything.
After hearing this, Bob immediately took the parchment carefully. He thought it was some secret weapon. After all, although he made farm tools for the people part-time, his main job was to be a blacksmith who made weapons and armor for the Pompeii family.
After looking at it for a while, Bob showed a tangled look on his face. He looked up at Luther helplessly and asked, "Master Luther, I really can't tell what it is. Can you explain it to me?"
Luther was not surprised. As an indigenous person, it would be strange if Bob could recognize this thing at a glance. So Luther took the parchment back from Bob and pointed at the pattern.
"This is a tool. Look, there is a cow in front, and the cow is walking slowly forward. The person behind is holding this thing and whipping the cow. The pointed thing below can use the power of the cow to loosen the soil. In this way, farmers don't have to work so hard to swing a hoe to plow the fields."
Luther didn't know how to explain it, so he used both hands to explain and perform the actions at the same time.
Not to mention, the description is quite perfect.
Although Bob looks like a big fool, he is actually quite smart. His daughter Maya is a smart and clever child. Although she is Luther's personal maid, she can sometimes control Luther.
She is a cute, bold and smart maid.
The two sons are also very smart.
This is genetic Bob's.
As Bob listened to Luther's explanation, he immediately thought of a picture in his mind: a docile cow in front, followed by a farmer holding the plow and slowly loosening the soil.
What the hell is this?
Bob stood up immediately, his face flushed, his neck thick, and his eyes wide open, as if he was a gorilla in heat, ready for a decisive battle between male gorillas at any time.
All in all, extremely exciting.
Luther was startled and thought speechlessly.
"Although the plow is indeed a world-shaking thing for farming, you don't have to be so excited, Uncle Bob. It will scare the children."
