Chapter 72 Prime Minister, you are sitting in the wrong place
(Bill: 22 updates)
Faced with Zhang Hao's inquiry, Zhou Jue thought for a moment and said: "The black iron used for alchemy is required at least 80 tons per year in Qixia Kingdom. In the entire six Western countries, it is no less than 350 tons per year."
Zhang Hao was silent for a long time, and then suddenly said: "From now on, our Zhang family will provide the black iron used for alchemy in Western countries. The price... the price..."
Zhou Jue's ears perked up.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Hao suddenly came to a sudden turning point: "By the way, what is the price of black iron used for alchemy in the country of Canglan?"
Zhou Jue almost bit his tongue. I waited for a damn long time and you asked me this. But after thinking about it, he still said: "Not sure. It is said that there are twenty or thirty top-grade spiritual stones."
Zhang Hao nodded: "Then, the Zhang family's price is: 99.0% purity, 15 high-grade spiritual stones per pound! Every time the purity increases by 0.1, the price increases by 2 high-grade spiritual stones."
Zhou Jue was overjoyed in his heart, but looked sad on the outside: No matter how cheap it is, the price is still too expensive.
The two argued for a long time, and Zhang Hao reduced the price to 10 commercial spiritual stones.
Zhou Jue finally bowed to Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao accepted it calmly. Although the cost of smelting such high-purity black iron is not high, the technology is valuable! The most important thing is to break the monopoly of the East and prevent the outflow of spiritual stones, which is of great significance.
We have achieved self-sufficiency and can also export!
Then, Zhang Hao put forward two requests of his own:
The first is the price of black iron. This is only the price within the Kingdom of Qixia. When sold to the other five Western countries, it is slightly more expensive and limited.
For those that exceed the limit and are sold to the East, the price must be increased, but it will be cheaper than those from Kunlun Continent.
How to control this price requires Zhou Jue's help - everyone has money to make money together; Zhang Hao knows very well that the Zhang family's own strength is a bit weak.
Secondly, Zhang Hao is very yearning for the kind of identification technique that can identify decimal points. The princess had demonstrated that powerful identification technique before, but Zhang Hao was too embarrassed to speak; now he is very confident.
Zhou Jue was also very straightforward and gave Zhang Hao the appraisal skill directly. As for the price issue, he said that he would go back and discuss it with the master of Jiuyang Sect and even his father Zhou Shuhai. It would take ten days to go back and forth.
After Zhou Jue finished speaking, he was about to leave in a hurry, but Zhang Hao shouted: "Brother, wait a minute, I have another question."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Jue's figure continued to float towards the sky, his robe sleeves fluttering, like a man in the clouds.
"I would like to ask why it is possible to refine spiritual weapons when the purity of black iron is over 99%. What is the reason?"
"Here, take this." Zhou Jue hurriedly threw out a jade slip. It flew above the white clouds and disappeared with another swish.
Zhang Hao took the jade slip and looked at the sky speechlessly~~~
Regarding the question of spiritual weapons, Zhang Hao has been struggling for a long time, but the people around him cannot give Zhang Hao the answer. Knowledge is only in the hands of a few people.
The jade slips are very rich in content and even contain some methods for refining spiritual weapons.
"So generous..."
"Hula..." There was a sound of wind above the head, and Zhou Jue was seen leaving and coming back. He shouted from the rooftop: "Don't lose that jade slip, give it to me when you come back."
After that, he wheezed again and flew away.
Zhang Hao:......
Image, image, you have just thrown the image of the Jiuyang Sect's eldest disciple, the young master of the Zhou family, into the ditch.
After watching Zhou Jue disappear completely, Zhang Haocai continued to look at the jade slips and found the information he needed.
It turns out that the higher the purity of black iron, the stronger its ability to transmit spiritual energy; and as the transmission ability increases, it will show some peculiar properties.
Especially when the purity of black iron reaches over 99%, the spiritual energy can flow almost unimpeded, and it can perfectly withstand the master's true energy, spells, magical powers, etc., and has a certain ability to gather spiritual energy.
"To put it bluntly, it is a superconductor! It also has some weak magnetism~~~"
"As for this identification technique... it actually requires true energy and spiritual consciousness, and during the Qi refining stage, only true energy is available; spiritual consciousness is a bit, but not enough."
Zhang Hao reluctantly put down the jade slip used for identification and prepared to hand it over to his father, second uncle, eldest brother, etc.
Well, now my father and second uncle are still recuperating, so they can only trouble Zhang Han for the time being.
It took Zhang Han more than two hours to master the new identification technique and began to participate in new research - ultra-high purity black iron.
Huang Mingshan and others were extremely serious and seemed to have a sense of mission on their faces.
Zhang Han looked on curiously, and he couldn't understand the brand-new smelting method.
"Why should the iron powder be separated from the carbon powder? How did they react?"
"Why only a little air?"
"Shouldn't spirit stone powder be added to the process of smelting black iron?"
…
Zhang Hao had a black line on his head, but Huang Mingshan explained excitedly.
As a result, there were more problems.
"Oxygen? What kind of gas is this?"
"Is there rust inside me too?"
…
Zhang Hao was speechless and rolled his eyes: No, there is no rust in your body, your brain is very funny~~~
After being busy for a long time, Zhang Shengye walked over gracefully. Although his face was pale, he did not hide his elegance.
When they met, he said directly: "Little Mouse, you are so proud. The prime minister is here and has already arrived at the guild. He is waiting for you now. Feng Dongyuan is already waiting for you in the living room."
Zhang Hao was immediately surprised: "The Prime Minister is here in person? Is this...Second Uncle...playing too big?"
"I see you are quite brave. Why are you scared now?"
"I heard that prime ministers have delicate minds. To deal with these people, you need to have a lot of eyes. But I am an ordinary person. If I have too many eyes, I will die..."
Zhang Shengye:......
The credit terms were brokered by Zhang Hao, but Zhang Hao still had to go.
Feng Dongyuan returned to his cold-faced state. When he saw Zhang Hao, without saying a word, he pulled him up and flew away with a huff. No matter what Zhang Hao said along the way, he did not slow down.
When Zhang Hao arrived at the guild gate, his legs and feet were weak and his face turned pale. Feng Dongyuan showed a proud smile on his lips, "Go in, the city lord is here too."
The city lord Liu Jingming and the prime minister Ouyang Si sit in the north, condescending; a typical guest who bullies the host.
Zhou Bo and others in the guild were sitting in the south, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Hao came in and saw this scene, frowned slightly, and asked: "Who is the prime minister?"
"That's me!" The prime minister looked middle-aged, but he called himself me. However, the lifespan of a cultivator should not be taken at face value, so there is nothing wrong with calling himself me.
Zhang Hao looked at the other party, nodded seriously, and said domineeringly: "Hello, Prime Minister, you are sitting in the wrong seat!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Liu Jingming's whole body tensed up. He was really shocked by Zhang Hao's words.
Zhou Bo and others were also stunned. Mr. Zhang, you are domineering!
Prime Minister Ouyang Si, however, narrowed his eyes, piercing Zhang Hao's heart like knives. But Zhang Hao held his head high and looked directly at the Prime Minister without giving in.
There seemed to be invisible lights and shadows of swords in the air.
After a while, the prime minister laughed loudly: "What a young man. So where do you think I should sit?"
"Of course it's where the guests should sit." After a pause, Zhang Hao continued, "Let's talk in the afternoon. At noon, let's greet the prime minister first and introduce the Black Iron Guild."
