In a dark warehouse.
Through Yu Manli's description, Lu Feng finally understood why the whole thing turned out the way it did now, and why Jinshan Zhao was misunderstood by others as him.
He was also given the title "White Tiger Killing Star".
The general process was quite different from what I had guessed before.
But, Dai Chunfeng actually thinks that he is an underground member of the Red Party?
I obviously haven’t come into contact with the organization yet, okay?
If you talk nonsense like this, even if you are the top brother on the list, I will still sue you for spreading rumors, okay?
No need to think about it, Lu Feng knew that Dai Chunfeng must have noticed that he was secretly looking for someone to buy steel.
Thinking about it, in today's world, there are only a few types of people who need to buy steel in large quantities.
As for me, I am neither a warlord representative nor a gang member, and my origins are still unclear. After some elimination, it seems that there is really no one else but the Red Party.
"Do you need me to do anything for you?"
After Yu Manli finished speaking, she was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Lu Feng, whose thoughts were interrupted, carefully looked at Yu Manli in front of him. She seemed a little better looking than when we last talked.
She must have been dressed up carefully.
This was also the arrangement of Lixingshe. In the past few days, Yu Manli was arranged to undergo an emergency training, which included professional knowledge such as makeup, idioms, etc.
Of course, the most important thing is family rules.
Although the honey trap is an old trick, it has been very effective since ancient times.
Yu Manli was stared at by Lu Feng, but she didn't feel any discomfort for some reason, because she felt that Lu Feng looked at her differently from others.
Lu Feng looked at Yu Manli in front of him. There were no far-reaching thoughts in his mind, but the plot about Yu Manli in the TV series.
This is a girl who values friendship very seriously. In the plot, in order to repay her father for raising her, she killed three robbers by herself.
Later, in order to repay Wang Tianfeng for saving his life, he even sold himself.
In the end, he sacrificed his life to save Mingtai.
It can be said that Yu Manli is a completely tragic character in the TV series.
Lu Feng never liked tragedy.
So, Lu Feng shook his head and said:
"No, you don't have to do anything. You just need to report the whereabouts of me and Master Jin as usual. Apart from the secret conversations between us, don't hide anything."
"But in this case..."
"Manli, you have to know that the people in Lixingshe are all very clever. As long as your behavior is a little abnormal, they will notice it. In that case, you will be in danger."
"I, I can help you."
"I know, but you can't do much to help me right now. You can be of greatest help to me if you work well in Lixingshe."
After thinking for a while, Lu Feng said again:
"By the way, you just said that the person who invited you to join Lixing Society is named Gu Shenyan?"
"Yes, that's him. He is the section chief of the Intelligence Section of Shanghai Station."
"Oh, that's interesting. You must find a way to have a good relationship with Gu Shenyan. He should be able to help you a lot."
"OK."
Yu Manli nodded and agreed.
The name Gu Shenyan immediately reminded Lu Feng of another TV series called "Rebel". This underground party lurking within the Kuomintang was also a powerful figure.
"Okay, that's it. Let's review the conversation we just had: you came here with me because I want to check the quality of the steel that's in storage, and you asked about my identity and so on, but I got through it perfunctorily, you know?"
"I see."
"Well, next, you have to continue to pretend that you are not familiar with me, and deliberately approach me according to their arrangements. After we gradually become familiar with each other, we can have normal contact."
"OK."
"Let's do this for now. You go to the front and let me stay here alone for a while."
"Um."
Lu Feng watched Yu Manli walk out of the warehouse and couldn't help but sigh that this was really a particularly lovable character.
Don't talk too much, don't ask too many questions, pay attention to feelings, be sensible, capable and follow orders.
Compared with other female characters in movies and TV series, she is really worry-free.
Only this time, it was no longer the "poisonous bee" Wang Tianfeng who pulled Yu Manli into Lixingshe, but Gu Shenyan, an underground member of the Red Party.
Come to think of it, there will definitely be new changes in her future.
After Yu Manli left the warehouse, Lu Feng turned his attention to the steel ingots wrapped in oil-sealed paper on the ground.
Thirteen hundred kilograms of steel are not too much when piled together, not even a square.
Lu Feng counted a total of forty-five steel ingots. The thirty-five yuan was sent by Dai Chunfeng, and the ten yuan was bought by Lu Feng himself.
The size of each steel ingot is about 10*10*20, and the weight is about thirty kilograms.
In later generations, the specifications of steel ingots were based on tons, and steel ingots weighing tens of kilograms could only be regarded as cut-off scraps.
But in the current Republic of China, the specifications of steel ingots are basically this large, and only a few tons are available.
The reason for this situation is that on the one hand, the government does not have a sufficient industrial base. Even if it imports large-sized steel ingots, it does not have the corresponding machinery for processing and production.
If you buy tons of steel ingots, you still have to cut them into small pieces in the end. It is better to import the small pieces directly from the beginning.
Another reason is that transportation in the Republic of China is currently underdeveloped, and many places still rely on human transportation.
For example, most of the unloading of goods at the dock still relies on manual labor.
The imported steel ingots are not produced locally in Shanghai, but are transported to various parts of the country. If they are too big, it will be inconvenient to transport them.
Let’s use a simple analogy: If a one-ton car breaks down, you can push it away with two people.
But if a ton of steel ingots falls to the ground, it will be like taking root. Not even a dozen people can move it.
Lu Feng peeled off the oil seal on a thirty kilogram steel ingot and looked at the blue circle of light on it, filled with joy.
The steel and iron bones are here.
Lu Feng put it directly into the inventory, replacing a stone bar.
Then Lu Feng discovered the problem.
Because of its density and weight, it is only a quarter of the stone bar.
A steel ingot can only block about one-tenth of the original stone strip.
Lu Feng calculated that even if he put in six sixty-kilogram steel ingots, it would only be able to cover his head, chest, abdomen, torso and other vital parts at most.
The door of the mask on the hands and feet is wide open.
It's a bit troublesome.
Lu Feng replaced the stone bar again and started scratching his head at the pile of steel ingots.
Lu Feng calculated that he had gained a little weight during this period. If he replaced all his weight with steel, he would need about 500 kilograms of steel.
After all, it seems that steel is not good enough. Do I have to find a new material?
Let me think about it, are there any materials with low density and high strength?
Titanium alloy? Is this thing available now? Anyway, the government definitely doesn’t have it. I wonder if Europe and the United States have done it?
As for materials other than titanium alloy, Lu Feng really couldn't think of anything.
Just when Lu Feng was struggling to find a new thing to replace steel, Jinshan came to the warehouse.
"Brother Ma, you are here."
"Well, Brother Jin, why are you here?"
“I came here to think about whether to call the blacksmith masters and let them use the steel to make a batch of iron locks, golden clothes and other exercise equipment.
After all, making iron tools is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. The sooner they get started, the sooner things can be made. "
"Golden clothes? What is that?"
Lu Feng was a little confused.
He knew that the iron lock was something similar to a barbell. Because the shape resembled a lock, it was named the iron lock.
Similar to this is the stone lock. As the name suggests, the material is replaced by stone.
As for Jinyi, Lu Feng had never heard of it.
"The golden coat is an iron coat, similar to the armor in ancient times. It is worn on the body to increase the weight and is used to exercise."
"armor!"
Lu Feng heard this and clapped his hands.
Jinshan Zhao was shocked.
Yes, why did I end up in a dead end? You can make armor. There are six inventory slots. I put six pieces of 120-pound iron armor in it.
If it is stacked on the body, let alone the gun, I am afraid that ordinary cannons may not be able to penetrate it, right?
And if it is made into that kind of full-body armor, it can also achieve all-round protection without leaving a door.
There’s nothing else to say, just stack your armor, the thickest!
"Brother Ma, what's wrong with you?"
Jinshan felt something was wrong with Lu Feng's mood and asked with concern.
"Nothing, armor, ah no, gold clothes are good, gold clothes are good! Let's go and call those blacksmith masters now."
Just do it, Lu Feng hurriedly went to the front to find Yu Manli.
Jinshan was left standing at the door of the warehouse, looking confused.
