In the lobby, it became silent in an instant. Everyone looked at Ouyang Si blankly, their heads blurred.
What is unexpected!
Everyone has thought about countless possibilities before, but never thought of this.
This is a typical cheating, but it leaves everyone speechless.
But having said that, being able to act shamelessly in a negotiation is called skill!
Real ability.
The scene seemed to have frozen. No one spoke, and Ouyang Si did not stand up. He just cupped his hands, bowed, and bowed his head.
As expected, it was an impeccable gesture of asking for help.
Gradually, everyone began to turn their heads and look around, looking at each other, but no one spoke. They were even more careful about breathing, not daring to make a sound, and some even just held their breath.
Zhou Jue turned to look at Zhang Hao, whose eyes were straight.
Damn it, why don’t you show off at this time!
As for Ouyang Si, although he lowered his head, he relied on his spiritual consciousness in the Nascent Soul stage to see clearly around him.
In fact, Ouyang Si had no choice but to do something. As the prime minister, he couldn't do this to himself.
There are too many differences between the Weapon Refining Guild and the Black Iron Guild in front of us.
The influence of the weapon smelting family far exceeds that of the black iron smelting family.
Nowadays, everyone can have a hand in the black iron smelting industry - ever since the Zhang family disclosed the water forging technique, the barriers to this industry have completely disappeared.
As for the weapon-refining families, each has mastered the ‘core technology’.
One is a raw material provider and the other is a high-tech product manufacturer. The influence of the two is naturally not on the same level.
The Weapon Refining Guild's involvement is so wide that it involves almost half of the Qixia Kingdom. If nothing else, just talking about Zhou Jue's identity naturally brings out the Jiuyang Sect and Xinglin Hall.
From Zhang Hao's point of view, the Weapon Refining Guild is powerful enough. Zhang Hao continues to promote the Black Iron Guild and the Weapon Refining Guild. One of the very important purposes is to "unite a group of people to help the Zhang family, thereby ensuring the Zhang family's
Safety".
So from the perspective of the Zhang family, the Weapon Refining Guild was very successful. By the way, it also expelled the Han family who was causing trouble in the court, making the Weapon Refining Guild very 'pure' within.
But from Ouyang Si's perspective, what he saw was a weapon-refining guild full of sharp thorns - this was a hedgehog, and Ouyang Si was not a tiger!
In addition, the treasury was empty, the war was tense, and the emperor did not give much promise, so Ouyang Si had no choice but to do this.
After a long time, Zhou Jue finally sighed and said dryly: "Prime Minister Ouyang, how about we discuss it internally first?"
After having made such sacrifices, Ouyang Si naturally could not let go. He shook his head: "Now the war situation is at stake, and there is a risk that things will change later.
Please Refining Guild take action as soon as possible, the sooner the better!"
Zhou Jue frowned, he was still dazed; Zhou Jue knew very well that he was not suitable for negotiation now. But it was obvious that Ouyang Si was unwilling to let go.
"Uncle Ouyang!" Zhang Hao spoke.
Zhou Jue immediately cast a grateful look.
Ouyang Si and everyone turned to look at Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao said slowly: "I also agree with Uncle Ouyang's statement. However, the guild also has some difficulties now. I hope Uncle Ouyang understands.
Although today's weapon refining guild seems to be huge, it is still in its infancy and nothing is prepared. It will take some time for the guild to have production capacity.
Secondly, we do not have the design drawings of war instruments, nor do we know what kind of war instruments the country needs, let alone our own production capabilities.
So, we can't give any definite answer right now."
Ouyang Si frowned. He really didn't want to talk to Zhang Hao, but he had to. And what Zhang Hao said was true.
After thinking for a while, Ouyang Si said: "I can give you the design drawings of the 'Spirit Turtle Castle', and even send craftsmen to guide you. However, the design drawings of the Spirit Turtle Castle must not be leaked, and all products are sold to the country."
Zhang Hao immediately shook his head: "Then we will not produce the Spirit Turtle Castle."
"You..." Ouyang Si was immediately confused by Zhang Hao and knew not to talk to this little bastard.
Just listen to Zhang Hao slowly say: "The Weapon Refining Guild was founded with nothing.
If our first product is not profitable,
If we cannot bring hope and confidence to everyone as soon as possible,
If we start with our hands tied,
Then, it won't take long for the Weapon Refining Guild to fall apart.
Uncle Ouyang, if the country is in trouble, we are willing to help; but we must do our best. If a weapon-refining guild with unlimited potential has not had time to thrive, it would be the greatest irresponsibility for the country if it dies in its infancy.
Uncle Ouyang, what do you think?"
Ouyang Si looked at Zhang Hao quietly, and finally nodded reluctantly.
It must be admitted that both the Black Iron Guild and the Weapon Refining Guild have brilliant prospects. If they develop, they may become a major pillar in the empire.
Some people may ask, will the tail be too big to fall off?
But Ouyang's thoughts go further - Jiuyang Sect and Xinglintang are the last representatives, but they are also important pillars of the Qixia Kingdom. Without Jiuyang Sect and Xinglintang, what would the Qixia Kingdom be like now?
Hard to say.
When the country was in danger, Ouyang Si's first consideration was the country's danger, and then centralization of power.
If the state no longer exists, then centralized power is a joke.
It's just that this is the truth, but right now we are negotiating.
Ouyang Si carefully considered his words and said slowly: "What my nephew said makes sense, but things always have priorities. Now that the war is in full swing, there can be no delay."
Zhang Hao didn't say anything, but turned to look at Zhou Jue: Hey, I saved the situation, now it's your turn.
Zhou Jue smiled softly, nodded, and spoke: "Prime Minister Ouyang, now we will both benefit from cooperation, and we will suffer from division. The country needs war weapons, and we need development.
I have an idea. How about the country directly sending craftsmen to guide us in the production of war instruments?
We will definitely produce the most weapons of war in the shortest time!"
This requires technology in an open and honest manner.
Ouyang Si frowned.
Zhou Jue continued, his tone a little heavy: "In addition, if you want to refine magic weapons, you need a special spiritual material."
"You want star gold?" Ouyang Si's eyes sharpened.
"Yes!" Zhou Jue said with certainty, "Star gold is an essential material for refining magic weapons. Most of the star gold in Qixia Kingdom is in the hands of the royal family."
Zhang Hao's ears perked up. Star Gold, a term he didn't remember in his memory, sounded very precious.
Ouyang Si thought about it for a while and then said: "I have very little control. Is 20 kilograms enough?"
"100 kilograms!" Zhou Jue said simply, "I guarantee that at least half of these star gold will be used for war weapons needed by the country."
