Douluo’s Immortal Swordsman

Chapter 223: Solicitation (Part 1)

Outside of a somewhat old small courtyard north of Tiandou City.

Su Qin was wearing a pale white silk robe, looked down at the address in his hand, looked around again, nodded slightly, and whispered: "That's right here."

Su Qin put away the address in his hand, walked to the old courtyard door, raised his right hand and knocked on the old courtyard door.

Bang bang bang~

Crunch~ crunch~

The courtyard door made a somewhat overwhelming noise.

"Who!"

A woman's voice came from the room, and there was also the sound of woman's footsteps coming towards the door.

"I'm here to find Wang Dahu."

Accompanied by the sound of crunching, the door of the old courtyard opened inward, and a woman in her forties who was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked ordinary, appeared in front of Su Qin, with a little bit on her face. Looking at Su Qin with an annoying look.

But when she saw the silk clothes on Su Qin's body, the irritability on the woman's face instantly faded, and she took a closer look at Su Qin, her face was handsome and handsome, and she carried a ring on her left hand that she knew was not a common product. There is also a gourd with two crystals in between.

The woman immediately determined that the visitor was a benefactor!

A big smile appeared on the woman's face, and she quickly moved to open the door and invited Su Qin into the house. At the same time, she said, "This lord, you go into the house, and the master is in the house!"

As she said, the woman turned her head and yelled at the door, "Master, here is a guest!"

Su Qin nodded slightly, and followed the woman into the old courtyard.

This yard is not big. The middle yard is only about ten square meters, and there are some old houses on both sides. A young man who looks like his twenties is chopping wood in the corner, and seeing Su Qin come in with a simple and honest smile. Beside the young man, there was a little girl who looked 8 or 9 years old and was a little bit ashamed to help arrange firewood. Seeing Su Qin coming in, the little girl hid behind the young man in fear, blinking her big eyes. Looking at Su Qin curiously.

Under the leadership of the woman, Su Qin sat down at a wooden table.

"Sir, sit down first, and I will pour you a glass of water."

"No need." Su Qin shook his head and refused.

"Well then. Master, don't hurry up!"

The woman didn't force it. In her opinion, this nobleman didn't look like someone who would drink their boiled water. Seeing her husband hadn't come out, the woman frowned and shouted at the room in the east corner.

"I'm coming!"

A man who was about forty years old, with many wrinkles on his face, rough hands and full of calluses ran out of the house in the east corner.

The man ran in front of Su Qin, bent over to accompany with a smile and said, "This lord, how much black powder do you need?"

Su Qin looked at the man's hands, there was still silver-black powder on his hands, and a strong smell of sulfur was exuding his whole body.

This man was the person Su Qin was looking for during his trip. This person was named Wang Dahu. The black powder he made was also considered a small celebrity in Tiandou City, and he was considered an expert in making black powder among the people of Tiandou City.

The reason why it is a folk, of course, is because the powerful have gone to work for the nobles.

Although Wang Dahu is a small celebrity and made good things, there are still many people who have not worked for the nobles for some reason.

The black powder made by Wang Dahu is only good for ordinary civilians, but for those nobles, it is a bit rough. And there are only those civilians who have little surplus money, who will reluctantly buy some flowers to watch and listen to during the New Year. The rest of the time is basically no one buys them.

Therefore, there is no need to recruit people like Wang Dahu.

If you can't help the nobles make money, how can those nobles waste their efforts to support them?

However, Wang Dahu is also considered to be half of the leaders among the folks who make gunpowder. As long as this person is recruited first, the other people who are still short of making black gunpowder will naturally be able to recruit more than half.

Su Qin recruited them mainly to let them help adjust the proportion of gunpowder. As long as they were willing to spend money and manage enough materials, these people should also be able to accomplish this task.

Su Qin shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not here to buy black powder."

Wang Dahu was taken aback for a moment, and there was a look of doubt in Su Qin's eyes. Why are you here if you don't buy black powder?

I only sell black powder!

Seeing Wang Dahu stunned, the woman He gave Wang Dahu a glance and said with a smile: "My lord, don't be kidding. We have nothing to sell except black powder. My lord, how could it be possible that you are not buying black powder? Where's the gunpowder?"

Su Qin smiled and shook his head and said: "I really didn't come to you to buy black powder. But I have a bigger business I want to do with you. I don't know if you want it?"

When Wang Dahu heard the words, he was stunned for a moment, and then there was a bitter smile on his face, and he shook his head again and again and said: "This lord, I can't do anything except make black powder. Why don't you find someone else?"

He stared at his husband, did not ask what to do, why did he refuse so quickly?

He hurriedly laughed and said, "My lord, our family can only do black powder. If it is a business related to black powder, we can try to do it. If not, then I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't do it anymore."

Su Qin looked at the appearance of the couple and nodded slightly. The performance of these two people was the same as that written in the newspaper Su Qin received.

Wang Dahu's brain seems to be lacking. He always goes straight when he encounters problems. If he says anything, he will do it, and he will not.

Speaking can't be a brain, lacking a heart and soul.

It is precisely because of this character that although the quality of the black powder made by Wang Dahu was good, the sales were not good.

However, afterwards, the family really couldn't open the pot, and the He family couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to help her husband sell the black powder he made as a woman.

The sales have been good over the years, and the whole family can have enough food and clothing without having to worry about food too much.

But that's it.

If it hadn't been for Wang Dahu's father to leave him such a small courtyard, their family's life would not be very good. You know, although the small courtyard of Wang Dahu's house is old, it is still a small courtyard in Tiandou City, and it is not the worthless houses in the slums.

And this yard is a place where ordinary people live in the north and south of the city. Although the alley is a bit deep, the location is OK and safety is guaranteed.

"I naturally know that you are making black powder. If not, I will not come to you." Su Qin looked at the two of them and nodded with a smile.

Wang Dahu's face was still a little dazed when he heard the words, but He's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he asked with some joy in his tone: "My lord, I don't know how much black powder you need? Our products are definitely okay. It’s just that our home is a small workshop after all, and the production speed may be slower."

Su Qin shook his head, looked away from Wang Dahu, looked at the He family on the side, and smiled: "Introduce myself, my name is Su Qin, I am a viscount. I want to ask, are you willing to come to work under me?

Don't worry, I never treat myself wrongly here. How about your salary tentatively set a month for one gold soul coin? "
