"Ah, by the way, I suddenly remembered something." Liang Xi said this to herself and retracted the hand she had extended.
"What's wrong?" Zhulan's eyebrows wrinkled. This cultivator made him feel very uncomfortable.
"I will not use any conspiracy." Liang Xidi said to Zhulan, "There is no one around us, there are three of you, and I only have one. I will not do anything detrimental to myself.
I just think there is something that will definitely interest you, Your Highness."
"Oh? Do you know who I am?" Zhulan raised her eyebrows.
"It was a hateful shark named Nian Shui who told me." Anyway, he couldn't hear Nian Shui scolding him now. Even if he heard it, he wouldn't dare to refute anything, so Liang Xi spoke without hesitation.
Zhu Lan looked at Liang Xi seriously. He wanted to see some clues from Liang Xi's face, but unfortunately, this cultivator made him feel very powerless.
"Clan Chief Shui? I heard that he is a very prestigious person among the sharks. Why haven't I seen him now?" Zhu Lan laughed, but did not relax his vigilance towards Liang Xi. "What did you just say?
Say is there anything I’d be interested in?”
"His second uncle is putting a bandage on him!" Liang Xi said in her heart, with a warm smile on her face: "I want to make a deal with His Highness, a deal that both of us will be very satisfied with."
Seeing that there was no expression on Zhu Lan's face, Liang Xi continued: "My father is an official of the Chu State, the largest country on land, but he is not a high official. He only runs errands for the emperor and delivers messages."
"So what?" Zhulan didn't know what Liang Xi wanted to say. He saw Erya lying motionless in Liang Xi's arms, but her chest was rising and falling very regularly, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Zhulan seemed a little impatient, Liang Xi winked and said mysteriously: "My father has some prestige in the army. He can usually speak well about the army's procurement of supplies. Every year, there are a large number of
Military weapons have to go through his hands. With my father’s status, if these military steel weapons are slightly different from those purchased, others will not say anything.”
"Really? So what?" Zhu Lan's tone was neither salty nor light, but her heartbeat accelerated.
Because the Sea Tribe is in the sea, they cannot make fire to forge weapons, so they usually grind fish bones and coral into weapons. Only occasionally steel weapons and anchors are found on sunken ships on the seabed, and these iron tools are used by high-level warriors.
.
Moreover, iron tools are extremely easy to rust in sea water, so even the most powerful Tiger Shark Knight of the West Yahai Clan cannot wield a sharp steel weapon.
If everyone in the Tiger Shark Knights had steel weapons, the combat effectiveness of this army of ten thousand people would increase at least three times.
And now, this cultivator seems to have given the West Yahai tribe this hope.
And depending on what he means, this transaction will be large and long-term.
How could this not make Zhulan's heart move?
Although Zhu Lan pretended to be calm on his face, Liang Xi, who had secretly turned on the evil eye, still saw that the Second Highness of the Sea Clan was feeling very excited at this moment.
"It's not a big deal to deduct some weapons from the annual military expenditure. After all, our Chu army has millions of people, and even one day's expenditure is an astonishing number, so no one would pay for tens of thousands of weapons, armor, etc.
Objection." Liang Xi spoke eloquently, as if she was telling the truth, "And what we need is just the corals and pearls you can see everywhere in the deep sea. You should know that these are not valuable in the eyes of the sea people.
How expensive things are on land."
"If you don't believe it, you can send someone to investigate. I, Chen Shuci, never tell lies. It's impossible that the dignitaries of the Chu State don't know my name, Shen Xian Ci. In the capital of our Chu State, even the spitting of my Shen Xian Ci is a trap.
I never break my promise to others." Liang Xi patted her chest, her cowhide blowing loudly.
"Anyway, you sea people can't go ashore, and you don't have the chance to verify it." Liang Xi's mind was whirling with calculations.
"Shenxianci, you are worthy of this title for being able to escape from the siege of dozens of our tiger shark knights." Zhulan's words sounded like praise, but Liang Xi still felt strange because
It's not him who the other party praises.
"Tens of thousands of weapons, the most sophisticated armor on the mainland, and a long-term cooperative relationship. You need weapons, we need coral pearls, and both of these are within easy reach for both of us." Liang Xi continued to encourage this.
His Highness the Second Highness of the Hai Clan.
Looking at the turtle shell warrior in front of her, Liang Xi reached out and patted the two bone sledgehammers hanging on his waist: "These two things are too easy to break. They are like tofu in front of our steel weapons."
tender."
Liang Xi's words made the turtle shell warrior blush, and he said goodbye to the two bone hammers on his back in embarrassment.
"In addition to providing the best weapons, we can also provide excellent anti-corrosion technology, which can make the weapons more durable in the water." Liang Xi offered an even more tempting offer, "You should have heard of us, right?
The advanced anti-corrosion technology can keep the sword still sharp after being dug up for thousands of years after being buried deep in the ground."
Zhulan's heart was moved, he was truly moved.
An opportunity that could increase the combat power of the West Yahai army several times was right in front of him, and his breathing was obviously a little rapid.
"Your Highness, I hope that Poseidon's wisdom can point you in the right direction. This kidnapping incident was just an accident. Isn't it the best ending for the war to turn into friendship?" Liang Xi's eloquence started as early as when he was a fortune teller in Yangdu City.
It’s been practiced. Don’t think about these words at this moment, just come to them at your fingertips.
Zhu Lan secretly made a gesture, and the shooters who were hiding in the seaweed retreated quietly.
Liang Xi sneered when she saw the seaweed swaying slightly and unnaturally not far away.
"Can your father really make the decision?" Zhulan was a little out of breath when he spoke, after all, the news now made him so excited.
The roadblock that had been limiting the West Yahai tribe's path to unifying the four seas in the past was about to be removed. How could Zhu Lan not be excited?
A son of a powerful man who could easily pass the country's arms restriction order was showing his favor to him. This opportunity was a rare one in a thousand years. Zhu Lan seemed to have seen himself leading warriors equipped with fine steel armor and wielding sharp swords to conquer the other three seas.
"If any of what I, the Immortal Ci, just said is a lie, I will be struck by five thunders and my soul will be destroyed." Liang Xi solemnly swore and her expression could no longer be serious.
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with me." Liang Xi thought to herself.
Seeing the excitement in Zhu Lan's eyes, Liang Xi said solemnly: "Your Highness, if possible, I will go back immediately to convey the sincerity of the Xiya Hai Clan to my father."
"Okay." Zhulan nodded immediately. Today's harvest was beyond his expectation. He didn't expect that this cultivator would be the heir of a powerful minister.
But this is also reasonable. If he was not the heir of a powerful minister, how could this cultivator be so young and have so much strength beyond his peers? This should be because he has been taught by cultivators in his family since he was a child.
The sea warriors waiting in the distance looked at each other. They saw that the cultivator actually held the princess and swam back into the flame crack, and His Highness did not stop him.
At this moment, Zhulan was still immersed in the fantasy of leading his army to conquer the world. It was not until Liang Xi turned the corner of Yankai that he remembered the purpose of his trip.
"Erya!" Zhu Lan's heart suddenly sank, "Despicable cultivator, how dare you play tricks on me!"
Zhu Lan was furious, and the sea water around him stirred unconsciously. A small hurricane was taking shape in his palm.
Feeling that a powerful force was forming behind her, Liang Xi made a ready gesture to the shark who had been waiting in the crack to respond.
