C19 Buy a Sword(1)

It's not that Gu Ning never thought about killing this hyena as food, but the hyena is too small. Even if he killed it, he wouldn't be able to eat much meat, so he might as well let it go. Thinking of this, Gu Ning felt that he was still kind.

Although Gu Ning's bow and arrow were simple and crude, with the support of his inner energy, the arrow could still pierce through rocks and kill some ordinary beasts.

There were many deer and rabbits in the outer perimeter of Tiger Roaring Mountain. As a martial artist, Gu Ning did not miss out on arrows. In just half a day, he had killed three deer and a dozen wild rabbits. His prey had piled up into a small mountain.

In the evening, a deer that had been cleaned was placed on top of the bonfire. Under the grilling of the flame, the fat sizzled, and the tempting fragrance made people feel refreshed.

The little hyena stuck out its tongue and laid on the ground. Its eyes stared at the roasted deer meat, but it did not pounce on it. Instead, it waited for Gu Ning to finish eating before eating heartily.

Gu Ning cut off the deer meat piece by piece. He didn't need any seasoning. The deer meat was quite sweet. After a full meal, he threw all the remaining bones to the little hyena.

He skewered all the prey together and brought them out of the mountain in the morning. If he sold them in a nearby town, he should be able to obtain some money.

However, dreams were full, and reality was bone sensitive. Gu Ning finally experienced the cruelty of society. With twenty taels of silver in his hand, Kong Yun could not help but smile bitterly.

The value of the meat of ordinary beasts was very low. Even a deer with a belt of bone could be sold for five taels of silver. Although the price of the small town was a little lower than the price of the city, the difference was not too big.

Wanting to rely on hunting to make a fortune was undoubtedly a fool's dream. If one wanted to obtain a large amount of gold in a short period of time, hunting Spirit Beast and picking treasure medicine were the best choice.

Gu Ning looked at the crude equipment on his body. Wanting to hunt Spirit Beast seemed a little unrealistic.

He weighed the twenty silver taels in his hand and helplessly shook his head. He walked into a blacksmith shop and prepared to pick a suitable weapon.

"Sir, what kind of weapon do you want to buy? The weapon I forged is first-rate and can last for a long time!" The boss attentively introduced.

"I want a steel knife!" Kong Yun said.

"A steel knife. I have a good steel knife, about 30 pounds!" The boss took a steel knife from the wall. It looked like a Tang Dynasty knife. There was a cold light under the sunlight, even though Gu Ning did not know much about weapons. It was a good knife.

"How much?" Gu Ning asked.

"Thank you. One tael of gold," the boss said with a smile.

Gu Ning was shocked by the price. A broken knife cost one tael of gold. This was robbery.

This saber was a fine product, so the price was naturally not low. However, the cheapest weapon in the blacksmith shop was 450 tael of gold. It was ridiculously expensive.

Gu Ning only had twenty taels of silver on him. No matter what, he could not afford this steel saber.

"Boss, I don't have that much money on me. Do you have any cheaper ones?" Gu Ning bit the bullet. It was hard to say.

"If I don't have money, what kind of weapon can I buy?" When he heard that Gu Ning didn't have money on him, the boss's attitude immediately became cold.

"Boss, please make an exception. My family has encountered some difficulties and I only have this little money on me." Gu Ning took out all twenty taels of silver.

"Twenty taels of silver. You also want to buy weapons. Are you trying to get rid of beggars?" The boss was also furious. He wasn't here to buy weapons, he was here to cause trouble.

The blacksmith boss snorted, "No, I don't have this kind of weapon. Do you think a weapon is a kitchen knife? You can just use some iron to make it. This is a weapon, and it's all refined steel. This bit of money isn't even enough to pay for the materials."

"Boss, you should have some cheap weapons here. If there are any cheap weapons, you can sell them to me at a cheaper price." Gu Ning was sobbing.

The boss rolled his eyes. "Cheap weapons? How can there be weapons that can be bought with twenty taels of silver? There are some broken weapons there. There is a pile there, and twenty taels of silver is not needed. Ten taels of silver for one. You can choose any weapon you want."

Gu Ning saw a pile of miscellaneous items in the corner. There were all kinds of weapons piled together. All of these weapons had one thing in common: they were all broken. Either they were missing a mouth or they were broken into half!

Once the weapons were broken, their value would be greatly reduced, and they would not be able to sell for much. The owner planned to melt all of these weapons and forge them into new weapons.

Although these weapons were broken, the material they were made of was genuine tempered steel!

Gu Ning's eyes lit up. Since they were all tempered steel, if they were broken or ugly, as long as they were sturdy enough and sharp enough, it would be enough.

The boss looked at Gu Ning who was rummaging through the pile of miscellaneous items and shook his head helplessly. Which family's child was this? He probably went out to explore the world after hearing the stories of martial artists.

"Wuwuwu!" The little hyena that had been following Gu Ning bit on the hilt of a sword and pulled it out with all its strength.
