When Zhang Hao saw Wu Fanghai, before he could greet him, Wu Fanghai laughed: "Xiao Hao, you did a good job. I went to the Weapon Refining Guild to see it, and I didn't expect you to come up with such a wonderful idea."
Zhang Hao smiled faintly: "I met my adoptive father. The ideas of profiles and semi-finished products were the methods thought up by our family's craftsmen. I am only responsible for realizing these ideas."
"But everyone said it was your idea. Come over here and let me take a look. I haven't seen you for a while and the foundation has been established."
Zhang Hao came to Wu Fanghai, suddenly stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Father, we have met, where is the gift?"
Wu Fanghai¡¯s face turned dark immediately, he really didn¡¯t prepare a gift~
Zhang Shengde immediately ¡®reprimanded¡¯: ¡°Xiaohao, how can I be like you? Come and sit down.¡±
When Zhang Shengde said this, Wu Fanghai felt even more embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he took out a box from the storage ring and said, "This is a jade pendant I got by chance. It is said to have the ability to turn disaster into good luck.
"However, I have been studying it for a long time and still haven't figured out its function. "
Zhang Hao took it with both hands, as the saying goes, "I dare not refuse a gift from an elder." Zhang Hao opened the box and saw a piece of about an inch, a clear green pendant, with thousands of knots hanging on it.
There is a faint aura flowing inside the jade pendant. There are four words on the jade pendant: A gentleman is like jade.
"What a jade pendant. Thank you, adoptive father." Although I don't know what the ability of this jade pendant is, the appearance alone makes it look extraordinary.
Although the red Qianqianknot is beautiful, it is not suitable to hang on Zhang Hao because Zhang Hao usually only wears casual clothes now, rather than fancy clothes.
Zhang Hao observed it, untied the Qianqian knot, and hung only the jade pendant around his waist.
Wu Fanghai nodded: "Sure enough, it's still suitable for you."
"Thank you, foster father. By the way, foster father, aren't you in the Kingdom of Jinyang?"
"This it's a long story."
¡°Then let¡¯s keep the story short.¡±
Wu Fanghai: little mouse, you are so skinny! My skin is itchy too!
Zhang Shengde said with a dark face: "Xiaohao, why are you talking to your elders!"
Young Master Zhang immediately apologized and then looked at Wu Fanghai longingly.
"Okay, okay." Wu Fanghai laughed loudly, "I quite like Xiao Hao. Xiao Hao, sit here with me."
Zhang Hao sat down next to Wu Fanghai, and Wu Fanghai spoke briefly; but Zhang Hao's expression gradually became serious.
Zhang Hao thought the situation would be complicated, but he didn't expect it to be so complicated. It was beyond imagination. The current war situation has involved more than 9 countries, and it is simply a mini-world war.
And in such a war-torn environment, the Qixia Kingdom can decisively withdraw. It should be said that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
But under such circumstances, what is Wu Fanghai doing here?
Zhang Hao was confused, "Father, the situation is so complicated now, what can our Zhang family do?"
Wu Fanghai thought for a moment and then said slowly: "Currently, Ninghe County has the highest production of black iron in the country; and the Zhang family has the highest output.
Yesterday, His Majesty also discussed with us that Ninghe County might be turned into a production base for magic weapons, magic weapons, and war weapons.
¡°And because I have a close relationship with the Zhang family, I was asked to come over and talk. "
Zhang Hao immediately became excited: "This is a good thing. I'm not sure about other families, but the Zhang family will definitely welcome it."
Wu Fanghai was a little dazed. He agreed so quickly? I also prepared a lot of words and principles. He hesitated and then said: "It's just you also know that the treasury is really empty now, so I would like to ask if the Zhang family can accept other forms of payment."
I knew it would be bad for you to show up suddenly. No, wait The country has no money to pay, so it is allowed to set its own terms. This is a good thing, right?
Zhang Hao¡¯s head came alive in an instant.
After looking at his father Zhang Shengde, Zhang Hao turned to Wu Fanghai and said, "Father, this is really embarrassing for us"
Wu Fanghai had a wry smile on his face, and the cheerfulness just now was all fake. Speaking of which, Ouyang Si should have come over, but Ouyang Si pushed Wu Fanghai over.
When Zhang Hao saw Wu Fanghai's expression, he immediately said impatiently: "Father, we donated five thousand tons of black iron before. It was already very difficult, but the country still wants us to continue to contribute. This is a bit too much!
"How about this? Give us the west side of Ninghe County as a fief, a hereditary kind." "
Zhang Hao¡¯s words were very casual and had a kind ofThe smell of ¡°angry¡±. But in fact, this is Zhang Hao's attempt to test the country's bottom line.
¡°And because of his youth, Zhang Hao can talk nonsense; in contrast, Zhang Shengde is inconvenient to say these things.
As for Wu Fanghai, he thought about it seriously and did not reply immediately.
When Zhang Hao saw it, he immediately understood: There is something going on!
After a while, Wu Fanghai finally spoke: "Xiao Hao, half of Ninghe County is too big. The most we can do is seal Changshan Town to the Zhang family."
Zhang Hao immediately jumped to his feet: "Father, the country wants to build our place into a black iron base, so for a long time in the future, the country will need a large amount of black iron, right?"
"¡¡Yes."
"Father, we are willing to support the development of the country. But we also have to survive. In fact, it is already very difficult for us now.
The five thousand tons of black iron to support the country are still being produced, but within our family, we are already somewhat stretched. Especially now that the price of elixirs has soared, we are also in a dilemma. "
Wu Fanghai had nothing to say for a moment. This is a dilemma.
The country is also in difficulty now, but the Zhang family¡¯s wealth did not fall from the sky.
The things involved are really complicated and tricky.
Wu Fanghai had no choice but to ask again: "What do the Zhang family want? I will go back and communicate with His Majesty."
"The fiefdom is part of it. Also, we can supply black iron to the country at cost price in the future; but only black iron with a purity of less than 95%.
The state must pay for spiritual stones, charcoal, bamboo charcoal, ores, elixirs, etc.
In addition, we ask for tax benefits.
Since the country cannot provide enough money at the moment, how about using future tax revenue as compensation? "
Zhang Hao's request was more reasonable. Wu Fanghai nodded: "Then I will discuss it with His Majesty when I go back."
"Then I'll trouble my foster father. By the way, foster father, I've always wanted to go to the battlefield and see the actual situation on the battlefield."
"Ohwhy? The battlefield is very dangerous. Even if you are in the Nascent Soul stage, you can't say you will definitely survive."
"Father, we are preparing to build war weapons, and we want to build some new war weapons. But if I don't understand the situation on the battlefield at all, I will be working behind closed doors.
And the easiest way is to go to the battlefield and take a look. "
Wu Fanghai frowned slightly, thinking. Now that the Kingdom of Qixia has withdrawn from the battlefield, it is not easy to arrange a visit for Zhang Hao.
Because the current battlefield is in the Kingdom of Jinyang!
While hesitating, he heard laughter coming from outside, "The prince and young master of the Kingdom of Jinyang, Wei Zirong, are here to visit. I sincerely ask the Zhang family to give me a visit."
Zhang Hao raised his head and glanced at Wu Fanghai; Wu Fanghai frowned.
Zhang Shengde strode out: "I'll go take a look."
This means I have to go out and greet you in person. Zhang Hao quickly followed and walked out, leaving only Wu Fanghai.
Wu Fanghai felt uncomfortable sitting there, so he sighed and stood up. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
