A mouthful of blood spurted out, and everyone's eyes when they looked at Zhang Hao changed in an instant, and most of them contained a little more or less pity.
Hu Yinglan looked at the blood all over her body. Not only was she not angry, but she sighed: "Zhang Hao, I will convey your deep love for the princess to the princess. But she cannot make the decision on the princess's marriage.
Marriage is the only destiny that all princesses cannot escape."
Zhang Hao nodded with a bad expression and said to those around him: "Father, City Lord, Senior Brother, Young Master Ouyang, Mr. Wei, I will take my leave first."
He bowed his hand to Hu Yinglan again, and Zhang Hao strode out of the room.
Zhang Hao regrets that the princess is the only high-level country official he has contacted who has ideas about the great voyage.
Facing the vast and dangerous green sea of death, relying solely on the Zhang family's own strength will inevitably be of little help. Only with the help of the country's power can we open a route of hope in this dangerous green sea of death.
But now, the plan has just started, but it has already encountered several setbacks!
"If it doesn't work for the princess, there is a second option, and that is... the guild!" Zhang Hao gritted his teeth secretly.
After returning to his room, Zhang Hao immediately retreated to practice. After such a toss, Zhang Hao actually faintly touched the door of the foundation building period.
But thinking about what my father said, I opened the "Annotations on the Secrets of Qi Refining" presented by Master Mingxu, and read the chapter on foundation building, and immediately started to compress the true essence.
Take the Xiaoling Yuan Pill together with the Foundation Establishment Stage to suppress your true energy and realm.
Until you can no longer suppress it no matter what, then break through the foundation building period.
Such a breakthrough in the foundation building period has a solid foundation; whether it is the quality, quantity, or combat effectiveness of the true energy, it is ten times that of the ordinary foundation building period.
It is difficult for ordinary cultivators to find a foundation-building pill when building a foundation. What they want is to break through the foundation-building stage as soon as possible.
But Zhang Hao was different. He ate the Foundation Building Pill and the Xiaoling Yuan Pill like jelly beans... The gap was widened from the beginning.
…………
But in the living room, after Zhang Hao left, everyone looked at each other.
After a while, Wei Zirong, the young master of the Crown Prince of Jinyang Kingdom, coughed twice, and said to the dark-faced Zhang Shengde in embarrassment: "Master Zhang, I came here this time to ask about the Zhang family's black iron smelting.
Can the technology be sold?”
"You can't afford it!" Zhang Shengde's expression was bad, and his tone was even worse.
In Zhang Shengde's view, his son has vomited blood, so why are you still babbling here? Also, isn't my son qualified for a princess marriage? Our Zhang family's current black iron output is comparable to
Is this qualification enough to go to the national level?
But Wei Zirong couldn't help it. He also had a mission. Although he felt uncomfortable swallowing Zhang Shengde's words, he still continued to say with a shy face: "I was reckless. Then if we purchase on a large scale..."
"The Zhang family has clearly marked the price, Mr. Wei doesn't know about it, right? If you want to donate, then don't talk about it. Our Zhang family is a country of the Qixia Kingdom, and we have no obligation or responsibility to donate to the Jinyang Kingdom.
Donate!”
Wei Zirong gritted his teeth, but still smiled on his face, "No, no, no, the head of the Zhang family misunderstood, I just want to purchase directly from the Zhang family.
You know, when this black iron arrives in our country of Jinyang, the price will rise by at least 20%."
"This has nothing to do with me. We are not responsible for the black iron after it is sold, except for quality problems, price, etc."
"That's why we want to purchase directly from the Zhang family." Wei Zirong had the desire to kill, but at this time he had to stay with Smile.
Zhang Shengde continued to shake his head: "All the black iron in our Zhang family and Ninghe County is sold by the guild. If you want to purchase it, just go to the guild.
But whether you are qualified to purchase or not is not up to me. Your country should send a note to our Majesty and obtain permission from the Lord of Ninghe County.
As long as they get these two permissions, the Zhang family is happy to do business with friends from all directions."
Next to him, City Lord Liu Jingming smiled happily - Lao Zhang, you did a good job. When you come back, let's celebrate.
It's just that Wei Zirong's face turned dark. Today's matter... was screwed up.
I really didn’t expect that this Shengde would be so thief!
Zhang Shengde turned to look at Ouyang Chu and Shu Bennan.
Shu Bennan immediately handed over his hand: "The commander asked me to come and take a look. Don't be late on any business."
Zhang Shengde immediately expressed his gratitude to Wu Fanghai and Shu Bennan.
Ouyang Chu said: "My father is very concerned about the Zhang family and can't leave, so he asked me to come and take a look. If the Zhang family has any difficulties, just ask."
Zhang Shengde quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you to the prime minister for your concern and to the city lord for taking care of us. Everything is fine with us."
Liu Jingming's face immediately showed a smile, these words are so nice~
In fact, Ouyang Chu was testing the Zhang family to see if they had the potential to win over politically; Zhang Shengde said: I don't care about the court. Our Zhang family is a small family in Ninghe County, and we are directly responsible to the city lord.
The prime minister is too far away from us.
Therefore, Ouyang Chu's face became less bright. He simply returned the gift and stood aside.
When Liu Jingming saw this, he quickly said goodbye.
People came and went in a hurry; after seeing off these people, Zhang Shengde immediately came to Zhang Hao's room, only to see that the door was closed and the guards were standing guard next to him.
"Master, the young master is practicing. He is fine." A guard immediately reported.
Zhang Shengde nodded, waited outside the house for a while, silently felt the situation inside the house with his spiritual sense, and then left with a smile.
Arriving outside the compound, Zhang Shengde looked at the shipbuilders and others who had initially settled down, but felt a little sigh in his heart - Son, forget about the princess, dad and you will work hard together on this big navigation plan.
…………
Zhang Hao practiced for two days at a stretch. However, not long after he opened his eyes, he saw Zhang Han walking over in a hurry, and his tone was also hasty:
"Little brother, little brother, it's not good. Rumors have suddenly spread throughout Ninghe County. Everyone is saying that a small calamity occurred when dad was going through the calamity. It must be that our family has done something unethical.
The remnant of the Qian family, Qian Mingjue, also jumped out and said that our Zhang family had used all means to force the Qian family away and obtained brand-new smelting technology from the Qian family. Even God could not stand it.
Now the turmoil is intensifying, and the situation is serious. Many people are also making trouble, saying that the devaluation of Xuantie coins is the fault of the Zhang family, and there are even words of "Zhang Papi".
The head disciple of Jiuyang Sect, Yun Juezi, also came on behalf of Jiuyang Sect and was a guest at the city lord's mansion.
The city lord's bodyguard Feng Dongyuan has arrived at the door and invites us to come over."
Zhang Hao stood calmly at the door, thought for a moment and said: "This matter is by no means simple... It seems that the remnants of the Qian family are causing trouble, but the remnants of the Qian family jumped out in such a hurry, they are just looking for death; this is unreasonable.
My adoptive father, General Wu, has said that whoever makes trouble now will have his whole family killed!"
As he spoke, Zhang Hao's eyes turned cold: "Who gave the remnant of the Qian family the courage!"
"Could it be the Jiuyang Sect? Want to get our technology?" Zhang Han said.
Zhang Hao shook his head: "If Jiuyang Sect is going to make trouble, we won't wait until now; we started making trouble a month ago. Now we are going to the Eastern Expedition. I have appointed General Wu as my adoptive father. The Zhang family has also taken on the task of five thousand tons of black iron."
"The Jiuyang Sect is not so irrational."
Zhang Han's face gradually darkened: "So, it can only be abroad?"
Zhang Hao nodded: "It's probably a spy from the Country of Canglan or the Country of Taihua who gave Qian Mingjue some promise!"
