Chapter 53: Asking for a knife

When they heard Li Xiang calling the two uncles, they both looked a little embarrassed. As our nephews and nieces, they were quite polite to us, but we came here just to take their things.

Among the young men in Chang'an City, these two can be said to be ranked first in martial arts fanatics. They don't like anything else, but they love swords, guns, sticks and clubs the most. They also got the news that Li Xiang's men were using the best swords in a million, which could easily cut off the swords of Hou Junji's men. This had never happened before in the Tang Dynasty.

Everyone knows that Hou Junji is a great general of the court, and his guards use the best weapons. Although they are not as good as the swords in the hands of several great generals, they are still top-notch in the entire Chang'an City.

It is extremely difficult to cut off their weapons. Even if you use some famous swords, you have to cut them two or three times, and you have to be well prepared. Many people saw the situation that day. Li Xiang just said "break the sword", and his men easily cut off the sword of Hou Junji's guard. Isn't this a rare magic weapon?

If the palace gates hadn't been closed last night, would these two people have been unable to get in? They would have come to collect money last night. They met at the gate of the East Palace today. They knew what the other party was thinking, so they came in without saying anything. They were afraid that the number of knives was relatively small.

"Your Highness, I'm a rough man, and I don't know how to say polite words. I've been fighting in the army with my father since I was a child, and what I love most is a good weapon. I also know that your weapon must be expensive. This is my savings over the years, a total of 3,570 strings of cash. If it's not enough, Your Highness, just ask. I will go back and sell my house and land and raise enough money for your needs. If Your Highness has any orders in the future, just tell me and come to my house. If I, Yuchi Baolin, say anything against it, I will be struck by lightning..."

Before Li Xiang could understand what was happening, this guy took out a lot of things, which were all he had accumulated over the years, including house deeds, land deeds, and money for several carriages. He took out everything he could.

"I……"

Seeing this scene, Chang Sun Chong was speechless. He also came with sincerity, but the problem was that his sincerity was not as good as Yuchi Baolin's. He had saved some money over the years, but he had several concubines and the expenses were really huge. Where could he get so much money?

Li Xiang originally wanted to give Hou Junji a warning and then get the system's reward, but he didn't expect that the young masters in Chang'an City would actually set their sights on this weapon.

"Uncles, to be honest, this weapon is definitely not an ordinary one. I used countless precious materials and finally forged and tempered it. The construction alone took thirty to fifty days. And since I made them all myself, there aren't many of them..."

Li Xiang looked embarrassed. The conditions offered by Yuchi Jingde were already very favorable, but Li Xiang also had to make the buyer feel comfortable. If the buyer took out all his family property and you could easily produce it, then the buyer would feel that he had paid a high price for a cheap product.

While Li Xiang was speaking, he was also observing the two people and found that they both nodded, indicating that they also agreed with what Li Xiang said.

Take the several generals in the court for example, they all have various famous swords, and the prices of these swords are not cheap. It is common for people to exchange a fortune for a famous sword. Although the weapons under Li Xiang's command are not as good as the famous swords, they are definitely at the same level as these swords. The only thing they lack is the long-term inheritance of the famous swords.

"I understand what Your Highness said. As long as Your Highness names a price, I, Yuchi Baolin, will never frown."

Yuchi Baolin was determined to get this knife.

"Li Wu, give your sword to the two generals."

Li Xiang did not rush to answer, but asked the guard at the door to take off the knife and let the two generals take a good look at the goods. When I ask for the price later, you will be willing to be ripped off.

Good knife!

These two guys are both connoisseurs, and they are also capable young generals among the second generation of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as they touched the sword, they instantly felt a sense of unity between man and sword. Coupled with the chill emanating from the blade, if they could take such a sword to the battlefield to kill the enemy, they would really kill anyone who stands in their way.

"You two can try it casually."

Li Xiang saw that the two men had this intention, but if they brandished swords and guns without Li Xiang's permission in Li Xiang's hall, it would be a very unreasonable behavior. The East Palace is also a palace and is within the scope of the imperial palace. Drawing swords at will is a serious crime.

After getting Li Xiang's permission, the two of them no longer had any concerns. Chang Sun Chong took out the sword in his hand, and saw that it was also forged by a famous craftsman from another place and was worth two thousand strings of cash.

clang…

The sound of metal colliding followed, and the next second there was the sound of a blade falling to the ground.

Although Changsun Chong's sword is not a famous sword, it is also well-known among the young men in Chang'an City. At this moment, Yuchi Baolin did not use his full strength, but only used one-third of his strength, and the sword has broken into two pieces. Looking at the sword in Yuchi Baolin's hand, there is no damage at all.

"What a good knife! If I had a knife like this in my life, I would die with my eyes closed."

Yuchi Baolin's saliva was almost flowing out.

"You're right. This thing is truly a powerful weapon on the battlefield. With a sword wielded, it can charge forward on a fast horse and take the head of an enemy general amidst a million-strong army. Who can stop it?"

Chang Sun Chong usually paid more attention to his knife than to his wife, but at this moment he simply threw the handle to the other side without even thinking of taking a second look at it. His eyes were only focused on the fine knife in front of him.

"Gentlemen, please have some tea."

The maid's voice brought the two back to reality. If the maid hadn't said anything, the two of them would have been touching the hilt and blade, imagining themselves killing enemies on the battlefield.

"Your Highness, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell us directly. No matter how difficult it is, as long as you bring it up, we will find a way to accomplish it."

Yuchi Baolin doesn't want to let go now. For a martial artist like him, a good weapon is a lifelong pursuit.

Li Xiang took a sip of tea and pursed his lips, his face showing extreme embarrassment. The two of them began to feel uneasy. Was this trip in vain? Or was there no material left? Otherwise, this second-hand one would do...
