In Shahe Town, Wuyang County, northwest of the Kingdom of Qixia, there is a newly established trading firm - Yulong Trading Firm.
This trading company appeared recently, but it has powerfully occupied a local black iron vein that was not obeyed, which made several local families with ideas and the trading company can only sigh. Because there is the shadow of Jiuyang Sect behind the newcomer.
Yulong Trading Company was founded by Qian Mingjue.
Relying on the influence of Jiuyang Sect, Yulong Trading Company now has considerable power.
However, in recent days, Qian Mingjue began to sigh.
Once, he thought that as long as he developed with peace of mind, he would have a chance to take revenge. However, the speed of the Zhang family's development made Qian Mingjue feel helpless and even desperate!
Moreover, both Qian Mingjue and Jiuyang Sect had complaints and even resentment. His sister's cold attitude and the ridicule from the disciples of Jiuyang Sect left deeper scars on Qian Mingjue's already painful heart.
.
But now they have to rely on the prestige of Jiuyang Sect to develop locally. Even the Xuantie from the 'Yulong Trading Company' has mostly been sold to Jiuyang Sect.
This made Qian Mingjue deeply feel the taste of "shame".
Especially recently, news came that Zhang Shengde had become a Nascent Soul, and Zhang Hao became the adoptive father of Hussar General Wu Fanghai, which deeply hurt Qian Mingjue's heart.
Qian Mingjue suddenly realized that he was so powerless!
Revenge...has become a dream, it's a beautiful dream.
The Zhang family has been developing too fast recently, and it is getting faster and faster. Especially the Zhang family's recent super big move - to smelt 5,000 tons of 95% pure black iron for the country!
This incident caused a huge sensation. You must know that in order to smelt these 5,000 tons of black iron, Ninghe County frantically excavated more than 100,000 tons of ore;
Also, because smelting high-purity black iron requires low-grade spiritual stones, not low-quality broken spiritual stones; Ninghe County is frantically collecting more than 5,000 tons of low-grade spiritual stones.
A cut standard spiritual stone is one inch in size; a spiritual stone weighs about two taels; 5,000 tons of low-grade spiritual stones are almost equivalent to 25 million spiritual stones. The wealth accumulated by Ninghe County for more than ten years will be exhausted in one day
.
With so many resources gathered, it is naturally impossible to keep it a secret. Moreover, Wu Fanghai and Liu Jingming don't seem to want to keep it a secret.
But this brought breathless pressure to Qian Mingjue.
"The Zhang family is getting stronger and stronger. Can we still take revenge?"
Qian Mingjue grasped the railing with both hands and gritted his teeth. His current cultivation level is at the peak of the Qi refining stage, and he is only one step away from building a foundation. But even if he has built a foundation, what can he do!
The gap is too big! It’s so big that it makes people despair!
Qian Mingjue was roaring helplessly in his heart.
Suddenly there were footsteps.
Qian Mingjue was furious: "Didn't I tell you all not to bother me? Get out!"
"Haha... Mr. Qian is not very capable, but he has a bad temper!" The visitor didn't care, gently opened the door and walked in.
Qian Mingjue turned around suddenly: "Who are you!"
This person was dressed in black robes, but he was not anyone he knew; and his accent was not local.
"Let me introduce myself, Zhuang Yunwen, from the country of Canglan. His cultivation level is so-so and he is at the peak of the golden elixir."
"What are you going to do!" Qian Mingjue's heart was in his throat.
As for the people of the Canglan Kingdom, the whole country is now shouting for the Eastern March, and one of the goals of the Eastern Expedition is the Canglan Kingdom.
Zhuang Yunwen sat down and asked, "Is this how Master Qian treats guests?"
"What kind of guest is this?"
"How about I take revenge on you?"
"I will not cooperate with people from the Country of Canglan!"
Zhuang Yunwen continued calmly: "How about I help you avenge your shame?"
"I..." Qian Mingjue opened his mouth, but suddenly couldn't say anything.
Zhuang Yunwen showed a hint of confidence on his face: "Master Qian, in fact, I have been secretly observing you for more than ten days."
Qian Mingjue took a deep breath for a while and gradually regained his composure: "Why did you choose me? I'm just a person in the Qi refining period, so I ask myself how I can't help you."
"No, no, no, you forgot, you still have the identity of Jiuyang Sect.
Moreover, the value of your status as the young master of the Qian family far exceeds your imagination."
"What's the value?"
"Ming, a famous 'name' comes from a teacher! Did you know that Zhang Shengde of the Zhang family has recently become the Nascent Soul?"
"Of course I know! I know a lot! But what can I do! What should I do!" Qian Mingjue was already a little crazy.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. An interesting thing happened during this period. While Zhang Shengde was breaking the pill and transforming into an infant, a small calamity actually appeared.
So I think this family must have done something outrageous.
For example, the reason why the Zhang family is so powerful now must be because they used whatever means to get something from the Qian family."
"No..." Qian Mingjue's eyes were a little wandering, and he was still struggling on the edge of despair.
Seeing Qian Mingjue like this, Zhuang Yunwen raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "No, there is! As long as you insist that it is, it will be!"
"this……"
Zhuang Yunwen did not give Qian Mingjue a chance to speak: "Do you want revenge? This is your only chance! If you miss this opportunity, the Zhang family will soar into the sky. When the Zhang family hands over five thousand tons of black iron to Wu Fanghai,
The Zhang family will become the upstart of the Qixia Kingdom in one fell swoop.
At that time, the Zhang family didn't even need to speak; others would take the initiative to help in order to curry favor with the Zhang family.
I have heard that many people in Shahe Town are dissatisfied with you."
Qian Mingjue's expression finally changed.
Zhuang Yunwen continued: "Do you want to avenge your shame? The humiliation from Jiuyang Sect is hard to bear.
I give you a promise. I, Zhuang Yunwen, swear to God that no matter what means you use, as long as you can restrain the Zhang family or even disturb the five thousand tons of black iron, I will bring you to the country of Canglan and give you
Nobility status.
If you can get the Zhang family's black iron technology, etc., I will take you to see the emperor.
The Zhang family's skills are enough for you to obtain the title of earl.
A count has a fiefdom!
As long as you arrive in the country of Canglan, add the Zhang family's technology, and develop it for a hundred years, you will be able to look down on the Nine Yang Sect!"
Qian Mingjue's eyes gradually turned red. He was now completely attracted by various benefits; but he forgot to consider 'rationality'.
Interest makes people crazy; hatred blinds the soul.
At this time, Qian Mingjue was driven by interests and spurred by hatred, and his mind began to lose control.
Zhuang Yunwen's 'swear' made Qian Mingjue feel more at ease.
After a while, Qian Mingjue swore.
"Very good!" Zhuang Yunwen nodded with a smile on his face, "I have already asked people to spread rumors. You should set off back to Ninghe County now. Someone will contact you there.
Remember, don’t mess things up. Otherwise, you won’t even have a chance to be a dog!”
"I, understand, understand!!!" Qian Mingjue growled in a low voice.
…………
After seeing off City Lord Liu Jingming, the Zhang family celebrated lively for several days.
After the celebration, Zhang Hao was immediately dragged to the study by his father Zhang Shengde and interrogated: What is the story between this little disaster and the iron rod? Tell me clearly.
Zhang Hao spent a lot of time and explained in detail several times before finally trembling and leaving this terrifying study room.
“I find that the most tiring thing is to explain what technology is to people who have no concept of technology; especially when many things cannot be explained clearly!
Playing the lute to a cow will at best result in no response.
If you explain technology to others, you may get beaten.
If you don't do well, you will be burned alive like Copernicus."
Zhang Hao was still sighing, when suddenly Huang Mingshan, wrapped in magic, floated over in panic, his face pale: "Master, Master, it's not good, we dug out the veins of the earth, and the earth is bleeding.
The manager (Zhang Shengye) asked the young master to come over quickly."
