After the metal block turned into a long silver strip, the woman turned around, picked up the sweat towel hanging aside and wiped the sweat on her face, and walked towards Liu Junyan. This woman was the mistress of the Liu family, Zhong Yan.
She is also a blacksmith.
Judging from the appearance, it is difficult to associate this woman with delicate features with those blacksmiths who are big and round or whose whole body is covered with explosive muscles.
"Madam, the other party has agreed to cooperate."
Liu Junyan said happily.
"Second uncle and the others came to the house just now to look for you, but I didn't let them in."
As Zhong Qing spoke, she put on her coat to cover her hot body.
Liu Junyan's expression froze, "What is the second uncle doing here again? Didn't I make it clear yesterday?"
"I guess I don't agree with you giving away the interests of Huxiaolin, and I also advise you to call my mother back to take charge of the Liu family. I have thought about it. If my mother is willing to come back -"
"impossible."
Liu Junyan shook his head, "I know her. If she only comes back to stay for ten days and a half, she might agree, but she won't be willing to live at home for a long time. In her eyes, cultivation is far more important than the Liu family and me."
This son is more important."
Zhong Qing was silent for a moment, then took a few steps forward to hold Liu Junyan's hands, "My research has made breakthrough progress. Once successful, it should be able to offset the loss of Huxiaolin."
"Really? Madam, you are so awesome."
Liu Junyan was overjoyed when he heard this and couldn't help but kiss Zhong Qing's face.
Zhong Qing's face turned red, she rolled her eyes at her husband, and turned back to the house. Liu Junyan quickly followed in and said with a smile: "Madam, now that the crisis at home has been resolved, should we consider having a child next?"
Liu's family was small, and his father only had one son, so the heavy responsibility for the expansion of the entire family fell on him.
"No, now the research has reached a critical moment. Let's wait until the thing is successfully produced before we have children."
Liu Junyan's mouth moved. He had been hearing this sentence for four years, and finally he still hesitated to compromise, "Okay."
······
Du family.
Unlike the Liu family, which was in decline, the head of the Du family was in his prime, and his strength had reached the late stage of the fifth realm, and he would become a Zhenqi realm martial sect in the next step. Moreover, the Du family had many children, including some geniuses.
Cultivating geniuses requires a lot of resources, so after the Du family learned that the Liu family's hunting team was wiped out, they set their sights on the Liu family's territory in the Tiger Roaring Forest.
But what I never expected was that a new hunting team would eventually occupy the place.
For this reason, the head of the Du family, Du Tui, had to hold a family meeting to discuss the matter.
"Master, although Liu Junyan's strength is not good, but this kid is flexible, he has so easily given away the territory that has been run by the Liu family for generations. He must know some things that we don't know. I suggest that the new guy should be passed on."
Jiang Long will find out and then make plans."
At the meeting, someone suggested.
This proposal was quickly approved by most people.
At the same time, this scene was also found in the Hong family and the Zhou family. Like the Du family, these two families chose to wait and see for the time being, and sent spies one after another to inquire about Niu Xiaosheng's origins.
······
In the blink of an eye, another five days passed.
Tiger Roaring Forest, West.
"boom!"
A water column rose into the sky from the lake, and the water spray dispersed, revealing the figure of Niu Xiaosheng. He hugged a strange big fish tightly with both hands, and as the big fish jumped out of the water, it crashed into the lake.
According to the introduction on the map, this big fish is called Qingyao Fish. Its adult body is fifteen meters long. It is a top-level second-level monster. Its whole body is full of treasures. Its scales are a good material for making armor. The fish meat is rich in nutrients and powerful.
The energy of fish is the main material for alchemy. Such an adult Qingyao fish can be sold for at least 70,000 to 80,000 taels of silver.
As long as you catch ten of these fish, Longhuqi will have enough money to eat from this month to the next.
Because they live in the water, it is difficult for the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry to take advantage of it. Without military formations to protect their bodies, they would go down to feed instead of fishing, so Niu Xiaosheng went down to the lake to catch them alone.
"Bang!"
After a while, a Qingyao fish with a bulging belly was thrown on the shore. Several big men in black armor quickly gathered around and lifted the fish to the open space aside. At this time, there were already four fish of various sizes piled there.
A Qingyao fish.
Niu Xiaosheng jumped from the lake to the shore, and his body was full of energy and blood. His wet clothes were immediately evaporated. There were many cracks in the originally brand-new clothes. After all, they were made of ordinary fabrics and could not be worn at all.
"Okay, everyone is going back."
It has been five days since I entered the Tiger Roaring Forest for hunting. I used the map as a guide and the harvest was good. Although they were all level 1 and level 2 monsters, the total price of all the prey exceeded one million. It can be said that I won the first battle. I just need to take it back and sell it.
If it is eliminated, the fiscal deficit crisis will be alleviated immediately.
In addition to prey, Niu Xiaosheng's space also contains many spiritual plants and herbs.
Back at the station, there was a building surrounded by tall walls on the originally empty ground, and many people were coming in and out of it.
The return of the hunting team immediately attracted everyone's attention, especially when they saw the prey they brought back, the entire station was enveloped in joy.
"Your Excellency, you must sell me one of these Qingyao fish."
Liu Junyan came to buy fish. Although the Qingyao fish is only a level 2 monster, it is very difficult to catch. In addition to the delicious meat, it also has a strong beauty-preserving effect.
"You don't need to call me Your Excellency, just call me Saint."
Niu Xiaosheng did not tell Liu Junyan his full name.
"Okay, Saint."
Liu Junyan responded.
After getting the Qingyao fish, he couldn't wait to leave.
Niu Xiaosheng also embarked on his return journey with half of the dragon and tiger cavalry and the prey.
Back in Youzhou City, Dongmei and Chundai had already opened a butcher shop and a medicine shop. After the demonic beasts were transported back, they were quickly placed in the butcher shop for sale, and in less than an hour, they were sold.
All have been sold out, and a total of more than 1.1 million yuan has been obtained, which is hundreds of thousands taels more than expected.
"There are so many big dog owners in Youzhou City."
Niu Xiaosheng had to sigh.
He had been staying at the butcher's shop just now, and saw a fat man dressed in ordinary clothes, without blinking an eye, just wrapped half of the monster meat, without even paying the price.
"After all, this is the capital of the state, so this is normal. Moreover, the supply of monster meat has always been in short supply, so there is no need to worry about selling it."
Dongmei and the two girls didn't find it strange at all.
"Little master, the goods we brought back this time are still a little short. We need to let the hunting team run a few more times."
Chuntai said.
"You just have to figure it out. I've been busy for half a month, so I'll go back first."
Niu Xiaosheng waved his hand and left the butcher shop.
