"Anyway, I have to thank you, Commander Lin. Without you, I would have suffered a huge setback at the hands of the Wu family and his son this time."
Tang Guorong said very sincerely.
Lin Xiao waved his hand and said: "No need to thank me. After all, you are the weapons partner of our Dorodo City Defense Force. Of course I have to help you. By helping you, I am also helping our City Defense Force."
Lin Xiao's words made Tang Guorong feel warm in his heart.
The previous commander-in-chiefs of the Dorodo City Defense Army often met with Tang Guorong. Because there were business relationships between the two parties, frequent meetings were inevitable.
However, the previous commanders-in-chief of Dorodo's city defense forces always acted aloof.
But Lin Xiao was different.
He is also the commander-in-chief, and Lin Xiao is also the youngest nine-star commander of the Dragon Kingdom, and is also the national protector of the Dragon Kingdom.
With such a lofty status and so much aura, Lin Xiao never puts on airs in front of Tang Guorong.
Tang Guorong couldn't help being flattered by this, and he was filled with gratitude!

"Commander Lin, this is my suggestion, please accept it."
After Tang Guorong finished speaking, he took out a thick envelope from his arms and handed it to Lin Xiao with both hands.
Lin Xiao took the envelope, opened it and took a look, and saw that the envelope was full of money.
If ordinary people saw the bright red Chinese coins, they would be dazzled or even dizzy, but Lin Xiao's expression did not change in any way from beginning to end.
"This is one hundred thousand Chinese dollars. Although it is not much, it is a little bit of my thoughts..."
Before Tang Guorong finished speaking, Lin Xiao thrust the thick envelope back into his hand.
"That's not good, Boss Tang. If I accept your money, who will I be? Don't give me anything anymore. If you really want to thank me, then it should be for the Dorado City Defense Force."
Contribute your efforts to improve the quality of weapons as much as possible."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Tang Guorong blushed and took the money back.
"Dragon Kingdom is really lucky to have a general like you!"
Tang Guorong said with admiration.
He didn't just say it, he really felt it.
When he used to cooperate with the Dorodo City Defense Force, he often sent money to the commander-in-chief at the time. Not only did he send money, but he even gave various expensive items as gifts.
The commander-in-chief of the city defense army accepted all these wishes or gifts without hesitation, and even frequently hinted that Tang Guorong's gifts were too few.
But now, Tang Guorong took the initiative to present items to Lin Xiao, but Lin Xiao refused.
This shows the difference between Lin Xiao and previous commanders-in-chief of the city defense army!
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Guorong continued: "In that case, let's invite Commander Lin to my house for a casual meal tomorrow night. Don't refuse, otherwise I will feel uneasy!"
Tang Guorong had already said this, so Lin Xiao didn't shirk anymore and agreed.
"Okay, I do have time tomorrow night, so I won't bother you then."
Lin Xiao said with a smile.
After the chat ended, the two quickly turned to the topic.
"I just said I don't want it. There is no doubt about it. Not only do I not want Wu Houfei's fortress giant crossbow, I also won't buy your fortress giant crossbow."
Lin Xiao said to Tang Guorong with a straight face.
Private matters should be handled privately, and public matters should be handled publicly.
The fortress crossbow is a weapon, and it involves the defense of Dorodo City. This is not only a business matter, but also a major event, so Lin Xiao's expression naturally became serious.
Tang Guorong looked puzzled and asked: "Is there any reason for this?"
"Yes, there is indeed a reason."
Lin Xiao nodded, and then continued: "Actually, after I heard you introduce the fortress giant crossbow at your door that day, I contacted the Dragon Kingdom Soldiers when I returned to the city defense army camp. The Dragon Kingdom Soldiers said that in the near future, they will
We will transport a batch of heavy city defense weapons to Dorodo to enhance Dorodo's city defense strength. With the support of the Dragon Kingdom's military, I naturally don't have to purchase the fortress crossbow through your weapons merchant."
After hearing what Lin Xiao said, Tang Guorong suddenly became enlightened.
Yes, the weapons and equipment of the Dorado City Defense Force mainly come from the support of the Dragon Kingdom's military.
Although Tang Guorong also provided weapons, equipment and material support to the Dorodo City Defense Force, he was in the minority after all.
Compared with the support from the Long Kingdom's military, Tang Guorong's support can only be said to be the icing on the cake.
Therefore, now that the Dragon Kingdom's military supports the Dorodo City Defense Army with the same type of weapons, the City Defense Army naturally does not need to purchase them from weapons merchants.
"Fortunately, I haven't received the fortress crossbow yet. I just paid the deposit...Thank you, Commander Lin. If you hadn't told me this news, I would have lost a lot of money."
Tang Guorong expressed his sincere thanks.
"It doesn't matter. These are all small things. We should help each other."
Lin Xiao said with a smile.
By the time Tang Guorong said goodbye and left, the sky was already getting dark.
Wu Qi's support from the Dragon Kingdom's army arrived at nightfall, and ten ballistae were placed on the city wall of Dorado in less than two hours.
With these ten heavy ballistae, Dorado's city defense strength suddenly increased dramatically.
In this way, even if more than 10,000 troops attack the city, they will never be able to capture Dorado!
The arrival of the ballista also made all the soldiers of the Doludo City Defense Army feel excited. They were more energetic and energetic.
During training, these soldiers all worked hard!
Seeing this prosperous scene in front of them, the two captains Zhou Guangzhong and Li Dong felt happy deep in their hearts.
Even Yuan Zheng suddenly felt a sense of pride!
...
...
Time passed quickly.
It was getting dark, and after Lin Xiao got off the car, he and Yuan Zheng stepped into the door of the Tang family.
In the hall on the first floor of Tang's house, Mai Qian and Tang Guorong's eldest wife Chen Qian brought the prepared meals to the table in an orderly manner.
Several of Tang Guorong's children were responsible for placing plates or wine glasses at the table.
The arrival of Lin Xiao and Yuan Zheng was immediately warmly welcomed by the Tang family. Tang Guorong's two wives, one old and one young, even came to the door with a group of children to greet them.
The happiest among them is naturally Tang Guorong’s eldest daughter Tang Ling.
However, neither Lin Xiao nor Yuan Zheng saw Tang Guorong.
"Welcome Mr. Lin and Mr. Yuan to our Tang family. Come in quickly."
Chen Qian said with a smile on her face, and then welcomed Lin Xiao and Yuan Zheng in.
After they sat down at the main table at the dinner table, Chen Qian personally picked up the wine bottle and poured a full glass of wine for Lin Xiao.
"Mr. Lin, come here, let me toast you."
Chen Qian said while holding the wine glass with a smile on her face.
