In front of the imperial capital and commander¡¯s camp of the Kingdom of Qixia, General Wu Fanghai quietly looked at the continuous flow of supplies.
These were all raised from donations by the princess. The motorcade stretched for several miles and included many craftsmen.
Although the princess was scolded, there was no reason to give up the donated materials.
It¡¯s a full 30% of the national treasury!
"With these materials, the victory will be increased by 10% again!" Wu Fanghai murmured to himself, with a high-spirited smile on his face.
Next to him, the prime minister asked in a low voice: "Old Wu, what do you think the original chance of winning is?"
"About seventy percent."
"Tell the truth!"
"Half of it."
The prime minister was dissatisfied and said, "Old Wu, we are the only two here, are you interesting?"
"Okay, um 20%!" General Wu's face showed bitterness, and the 'high-spirited smile' on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he collapsed in an instant.
The 20% chance of winning, and adding another 10%, is only 30%. The so-called 30% chance of winning is a subtle way of saying "70% chance of defeat"!
The prime minister let out a long sigh and said, "Bring all the sons back."
¡°I¡¯ll try my best!¡±
As he was talking, he saw a group of carriages creaking by, leaving particularly obvious ruts on the ground; the strong horses pulling the carriages were breathing heavily, and their temper was obviously on the verge of exploding.
General Wu was immediately curious: "What are these cars carrying?"
"It's black iron, more than five hundred tons of black iron." The prime minister opened his mouth and said.
"More than five hundredtons? How much?"
"Uh" The prime minister then realized, "This is a new unit that appeared in Ninghe County. It is said that a Zhang family said that using 'stone', 'jun', etc. was too stingy, so they invented a new one unit.
One ton is equal to two thousand catties and one thousand big catties.
Five hundred tons of black iron is one million kilograms. It's enough to add a flying sword to each of the millions of troops. "
"One million catties!" General Wu raised his voice by three points, "Let me see!"
The tarpaulin was torn off, and General Wu¡¯s eyes were instantly attracted to the black iron from the Zhang family
The prime minister immediately explained.
Half an hour later,
General Wu took a deep breath, "I want to go to the Zhang family in person!"
When the prime minister heard this, he was suddenly stunned, "Don't you want to go to the Zhang family and ask for black iron in vain?"
"You don't have to worry about it!"
After General Wu instructed his generals on relevant matters, he flew directly to Ninghe County.
¡¡¡¡
As the night gets darker, Zhang Hao and his father Zhang Shengde have been busy for another day.
As of today, the Zhang family has acquired three large and small shipbuilding workshops, employing more than 1,300 craftsmen and more than 5,000 family members.
The Zhang family¡¯s acquisition activities have finally come to an end.
Over this period of time, the Zhang family has acquired several small families that smelt black iron, small businesses that sell black iron, and harvested several mines.
It has almost reached the Zhang family¡¯s temporary limit.
The prototype of a large family is already in place.
The screening, swearing, arrangement, etc. of follow-up personnel are all proceeding in an orderly manner.
Zhang Shengde took a Jingyuan Pill and began to consolidate his cultivation, striving to break through to the Yuanying stage as soon as possible so as to support this rapidly growing family.
Zhang Hao and Zhang Han were protecting the law outside.
As for Dugu Junjie, on behalf of the Zhang family, he went to various places to take over shipbuilding workshops and craftsmen.
As the night gradually approached midnight, Zhang Hao felt a little sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.
In the past few days, I haven¡¯t been able to take a good rest. Zhang Hao has been involved in almost all the family affairs; Zhang Shengde has also gradually handed over some matters to Zhang Hao.
"Brother, go to sleep." Zhang Han spoke.
"It's okay, it's just that my spirit has a lapse~~~"
""
Suddenly, a guard trotted over: "The eldest young master, the second young master, the city lord Liu Jingming is here to visit!"
"Huh?" Zhang Hao and Zhang Han stood up instantly, their eyes gleaming.
What¡¯s the point of visiting in the middle of the night?
Still politely waiting at the door.
Zhang Hao came immediatelyHe made a decision: "Brother, you bring someone to protect dad in his practice. I'll go take a look."
"careful."
"got it."
Zhang Hao walked quickly to the door. As soon as he went out, he saw the city lord and the people next to the city lord.
That person cannot be ignored by Zhang Hao. He looks very plain, but he seems to have overshadowed the glory of the city lord Liu Jingming. Gradually, Zhang Hao only saw this person, and Liu Jingming disappeared.
He has an ordinary figure, but has a majestic air. The gray hair and slightly old face tell the story of the years.
After being stunned for a while, Zhang Hao stepped forward to greet him.
The city lord smiled: "You must be scared. Let me introduce to you. This is General Wu Fanghai, who is also the commander-in-chief of a million-strong army in this Eastern Expedition."
Isn¡¯t this the Grand Marshal of the Nation¡¯s Armed Forces? !
Zhang Hao was even more surprised. The marshal of all the troops came to visit him in the middle of the night. What was he doing?
Zhang Hao became vigilant, welcomed the two of them into the living room, served tea himself, and then cautiously said: "My father is in retreat. I wonder if the general and the city lord are visiting me late at night. What advice do you have?"
The city lord looked a little embarrassed and turned to look at Wu Fanghai.
But Wu Fanghai said generously, "I'm here for the black iron! I heard that the Zhang family is willing to donate 500 tons of 93% pure black iron every month, right?"
"yes!"
"Then I can ask, why?"
Why? Zhang Hao looked at the majestic Wu Fanghai in front of him, and his thoughts changed rapidly.
How is the Wu Fanghai in front of you like? What answer does he want? Should I speak in an awe-inspiring manner, or should I speak in a concrete and pragmatic manner?
Invisible pressure acted on Zhang Hao¡¯s body and heart.
Looking at Wu Fanghai, Zhang Hao seemed to see mountains or the sea in the haze.
The mountains are high and the sea is boundless!
This person is full of righteousness!
Zhang Hao knew it well. When facing such people, don't just say empty words, but don't make them too real - you still need to modify them appropriately.
He sat upright with a serious face, looked directly into Wu Fanghai's eyes, and said with high spirits: "I don't understand any big principles, but I know the truth of dying lips and cold teeth.
The country is here and the home is here!
The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed!
General, if you have something to ask for, the Zhang family will do their best.
Of course, it is unrealistic to say that you don¡¯t ask for anything in return. If possible, I hope the Zhang family can be protected by the general! "
The atmosphere suddenly solidified.
Zhang Hao asked for remuneration confidently.
City Lord Liu Jingming seemed to have met Zhang Hao for the first time. He did not expect that the young man in front of him could sit up straight, look directly into the eyes of Cavalry General Wu Fanghai, and speak such sonorous words word for word.
Even I couldn¡¯t help but bow my head when facing Wu Fanghai.
Wu Fanghai looked into Zhang Hao¡¯s eyes and seemed to see Zhang Hao¡¯s heart. He finally nodded slowly, because he could see that these were the words from Zhang Hao's heart, or it could be said to be the cry from the bottom of his heart.
No one likes to see their country weak.
Zhang Hao understands this truth better: if you are weak, you will be bullied!
In the world of the strong, being weak is a sin!
Wu Fanghai spoke slowly: "How much black iron can the Zhang family produce in the next two months?"
Zhang Hao's words are still sonorous and powerful: "If the raw materials are sufficient and the supply of ores and low-grade spiritual stones is guaranteed, the Zhang family can provide the general with 5,000 tons of more than 95% black iron within two months.
I just want to ask, does the general dare to ask for it? "
Dare you ask for it?
Dare you ask for it? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
