Chapter 298 You really don’t like me?
The woman smiled, looking somewhat charming.
"You're new in town, right? Have you found a job?"
"Uh...oh, found it."
"What do you do for a living?"
"Drive the car."
"That's right. These days, it's hard to find such an easy job."
The woman's eyes lit up.
"Hey, you came here alone? Where are your family members?"
Lin Feng shook his head.
The woman looked at Lin Feng carefully again.
"Where is your wife?"
Lin Feng still shook his head.
The woman made a clicking sound.
"That's right. It's really hard to find a daughter-in-law here. If you don't have a home or a job, you can't even support a wife."
Lin Feng was already looking forward to the old man coming out.
The woman generously sat next to Lin Feng and squeezed in.
"Hey, what do you think of me?"
Lin Feng looked at her in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"I can spin and weave, wash clothes, cook, and have children. You can drive the cart, and I can earn money. We can live a good life."
Lin Feng was helpless. How could this woman be so hungry?
There were quite a few refugees in the city, but most of them were men, and there were very few young women.
A woman like this should be very popular.
"I...I'm here to buy..."
"Oh, you're so timid, you're not like a man. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again. I've seen more than a dozen of them, but none of them caught my eye."
When Lin Feng didn't know what to say, Old Man Liang finally came out from the inner room.
"Ahem, Xiao Yingzi, are you here looking for a man?"
The woman was not shy and looked up and smiled.
"Why? It's written in the official notice that anyone can find a wife or a husband freely."
"My family is rich and powerful, and you still don't like me?"
The woman frowned and said, "Uncle Liang, you are too old."
"Bah, you just fell for that pretty boy."
The woman puffed out her small chest.
"Why? The government doesn't care. I can't find a good-looking one."
As she spoke, she waved to the little girl to come over to her.
"I have a crush on him. Come here, Niuniu, and call me daddy."
Lin Feng finally couldn't sit still anymore and quickly stood up and shook his hands.
"No, no, I can't recognize anyone who is my father."
The old man chuckled and said, "Xiao Yingzi, I don't like you, so why not let Niuniu call me daddy?"
"Bah, dream on, young man, you really don't like me?"
Lin Feng smiled awkwardly: "Uh...ah..."
Yingzi glared at him before he could finish his words.
"Let me tell you, do you know Lin Feng?"
This sentence really frightened Lin Feng, and he stared at the woman blankly.
Yingzi smiled proudly: "This city is under his control."
The old man snorted disdainfully: "This has nothing to do with you."
"Let me tell you, Lin Feng and I are relatives."
Seeing both of them staring at her with wide eyes, Yingzi felt even more proud.
"Do you know where Lin Feng is from?"
"Where?"
"They're from Lingdouzi Village in Qingshui County, which is adjacent to our village."
Lin Feng asked hesitantly: "Then, you are..."
"My grandmother's aunt is Grandpa Lin Feng's cousin."
Lin Feng suddenly felt a little dizzy. How should he account for this relative?
The old man said jokingly: "Hey, Xiao Yingzi, you scared me to death. This relative must be very good."
"Don't worry about it. He must be a relative. I'll go find him tomorrow and get him a job as an official for my future husband."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng touched his nose and asked in confusion.
"Is this official so easy to deal with?"
"Of course, it was all just a matter of Lin Feng's words. You know how powerful the Tartars are, right? They were driven away by Lin Feng."
The old man said angrily: "The Tartars are still here, where did they run to?"
Yingzi pointed in the direction outside the city and said, "Everyone who was in that camp has run away now."
"No matter who you know, you should first ask the young man if he is willing."
Yingzi looked very proud and nudged Lin Feng's arm with her shoulder.
"How about I be your wife, are you willing?"
Lin Feng shook his head and said nothing.
The old man immediately shouted: "See, I really don't like you, Yingzi. I'm still better. I have skills and I won't starve anywhere."
Yingzi was furious: "Boy, what's wrong with me? Tell me."
Lin Feng reached out and took the whip from the old man's hand and looked at it carefully.
While saying: "You are good in every way, but we are not suitable."
"Bah, you don't like me, and I haven't liked you either, pretty boy, you don't have any good intentions, there are so many people lining up to marry me."
Yingzi said angrily, took the little girl's hand, slammed the door and left, forgetting why she came there.
Lin Feng smiled bitterly, shook his head, and then screamed.
"This whip is great. Oh, is it made of cow tendon?"
He could already tell that the material and craftsmanship of the whip were similar to those of the bowstring.
The old man stroked his gray beard proudly.
"Well, you are also a connoisseur."
"What material is this whip made of?"
"It's made of jujube wood."
"Shopkeeper, why does it look different from ordinary jujube wood?"
When the old man saw that Lin Feng rejected Yingzi, hope rose in his heart and his mood improved.
"You know what? Making a whip like this requires sixteen steps. Even one step is wrong."
Lin Feng thought to himself, this is it.
It takes more than a dozen steps to make a high-quality mulberry wood bow.
"Boss, how do you make such a good whip?"
"Hey, you want to learn?"
"Yeah, I want to learn."
The old man's face changed: "Do you want it or not? If not, leave quickly."
Lin Feng quickly asked, "Yes, yes, how much?"
"Take the ten taels of silver, you won't lose anything."
"Ah, so expensive?"
"Boy, even if you pass this whip on to your son, it can still be passed down for two more generations."
Lin Feng nodded: "It is indeed durable. Boss, how much can I pay for your craftsmanship?"
"I won't sell it to you, no matter how much money you pay. Stop talking nonsense."
The old man was determined.
"Don't be so sure. Name a price and we can negotiate."
"Take out the silver and take the whip away quickly. I'm telling you, even the gods won't sell my craftsmanship to me. Now go."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "How about this? I'll let Yingzi marry you and give you one thousand taels of silver."
"Don't even mention one thousand taels of silver, even if it's ten thousand taels... huh? How can you let Yingzi marry me?"
"Don't worry about it. As long as Yingzi marries you, this craft will be mine."
The old man hesitated.
He really likes Yingzi, who is young, beautiful, capable, and neat, and she is always in front of him.
But people don't care about their own skills.
The old man looked at Lin Feng warily.
"who are you?"
"The driver."
"Don't threaten others. This is a border town. Do you know who is in charge?"
"Definitely make her willing, it doesn't matter who is in charge."
The old man licked his dry lips and sighed heavily.
"No, I can only give this skill to one person. No matter how much money others pay, it will be useless."
"Oh? Who is this person?"
The old man hesitated for a while and glanced at Lin Feng.
"Why should I tell you?"
Lin Feng spread his hands: "You have to make me give up."
The old man stared at Lin Feng for a moment before moving closer and speaking.
"Do you know Lin Feng?"
Lin Feng shook his head: "Why, are you also his relative?"
