Now that we have entered the palace, we naturally look for Longting on the way.
Long Ting, the leader of the Dragon Guard, was very comfortable and had nothing to do.
Moreover, he is a relatively quiet person. He doesn't like to go out unless there are big things. He still habitually sits and meditates, sitting in his room like a dead tree.
"I haven't seen Mr. Zhou for a long time. I thought Mr. Zhou was angry and annoyed that Longting took away your position. I'm really sorry."
He laughed awkwardly, stood up to greet him, and said, "It's really not Long Ting's own intention. It doesn't matter whether he is the leader of the leading guard or not. But he feels that he has offended Mr. Zhou, and he feels very uneasy."
"I'm free now. It's very good. It's not an apology. How can I blame you?"
Zhou Xiaozhou smiled and said, "I just stopped by to ask, what's going on between you and Zuo Xi'er?"
Long Ting became more and more embarrassed and said, "It's nothing."
"That girl misses you day and night, and she is very lovesick."
"Yeah?"
Long Ting was a little hesitant. He felt that Zuo Xi'er was not the person he wanted to find, and he also felt that it was not good to make someone sick.
I can make people miss you, but I am also very happy, and my mood is very complicated...
Zhou Xiaozhou said: "Don't you royal family members all have wives and concubines in groups? You can marry them as soon as you look at them. They are pretty and good-looking. If you don't play, it will be in vain. If you meet someone better later, you can marry again. It doesn't matter. .”
Long Ting was stunned for a long time: "This... is not good..."
"Will you only marry one woman in your life?"
"This... is unlikely."
Long Ting said while making tea, "Children of the royal family are usually required by the clan to have more offspring and spread more branches to strengthen the family. Not only will you get generous rewards for marrying a wife, but you will also receive a lot of money for having children. , there is basically no need to worry too much about child support, and even concubinage subsidies are provided, but if you only marry one woman, you will be laughed at."
The benefits are so good!
With such good benefits, the Wusheng dynasty has a history of thousands of years. There should be a lot of people with the surname Long. Why do you feel that there are still not many people in the Wusheng dynasty?
"How many people in Wu Shengguo have the surname Long?"
"Not much, at most a hundred thousand."
"No, why are there so few?"
Long Ting hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "This matter is a royal secret and cannot be leaked to the outside world."
Forget it, Zhou Xiaozhou was not interested in asking about the secrets of the royal family, so he said instead: "Since the royal family encourages marrying more wives and having children, why do you have any hesitation? If you meet a woman who looks similar, just take it home." , you have cultivated to the heaven level, why don’t you enjoy your life?”
Long Ting hesitated again, thinking about this question.
"If you are not the one you particularly like, you will be bored and uncomfortable when you are together. You can't be too casual about this kind of thing, right?"
Although they are of the same age, Zhou Xiaozhou is a veteran in the world, and Long Ting is an innocent young man from a wealthy family, so it is not easy to teach him bad things.
It’s rare for a rich family to have such an innocent young man...
"How old are you this year?"
"It seems... over fifty."
A young man in his fifties...
Anyway, it's up to them whether it succeeds or not.
We chatted casually for a while, but many people from the leading guard came over after hearing the news, and they were quite lively.
Everyone looked at him eagerly, with depressed expressions on their faces. Robbery is addictive. Money comes in so quickly!
Now I am very speechless in the palace, looking forward to his coming back...
Zhou Xiaozhou didn't stay too long. After saying hello, he left the palace and went home to avoid trouble.
Returning to Nanda Camp the next day, Master Nalu returned with his group of followers and disciples.
Moreover, he was still arrogant, as if he had been promoted by the Ministry of Works, and made many demands, including asking for a separate room for him.
There had been one before, but it was demolished after he left, and now it was built again for him.
"Your mission is to create twenty-one magical weapons as soon as possible, excluding the trumpet."
"I will build whatever I like to build. How can you control me?"
Master Lu immediately shook his head, "Twenty-one magical weapons seem to be tasks given to you by the king, and they have nothing to do with me."
Zhou Xiaozhou sneered: "If we don't create anything useful, we won't give you any resources."
I won’t give you any ores, nor broken copper or old iron, but you can make a yarn...
Copper and iron are already valuable things, how can they be allowed to be wasted by him?
The value of copper even exceeds that of copper coins. That is to say, if copper is collected to make coins, the copper coins produced will even lose labor costs, so no one will make fake copper coins.
The value of copper is quite stable.
If you want something cheaper, you have to bring the ore back for refining. Refining the ore is a lot of trouble, time-consuming and labor-intensive. The blacksmith camp needed to refine a large amount of armor leaves. The workload was already heavy, and he also had to take away a furnace. Zhou Xiaozhou was already unhappy. How could he be allowed to mess around.
"That's unreasonable!
The king said that you provide all the resources for me, how can you disobey the king's order? "
"It's right to provide you with resources, but what you want to refine is up to me. If you don't listen, you can go to the king and ask for the resources yourself."
Master Lu was angry and angry, and said angrily: "Master, I will be able to refine a top-grade trumpet really soon!"
Zhou Xiaozhou had no choice but to take a step back: "You can use the remaining scraps to refine the horn."
Master Lu had no choice but to nod: "Okay..."
Better than nothing at all.
Compromising with each other is out of the question.
This Master Lu is indeed a weapon refiner who can refine magical weapons. Three or four yellow-level magical weapons can be easily refined.
Easy means that one can be refined in about three days.
This kind of speed is already at the master level in the industry of weapon refiners, without water.
But when compared with Zhou Xiaozhou, he was despised.
The craftsmen didn't even bother to pay attention to him.
The main reason is that he is too self-respecting and won't let anyone take a look at him. Who would be interested in flattering him?
For three days, Master Lu worked overtime and around the clock, just to use the leftover materials to build the speakers.
Then he excitedly continued to build the speakers, and built six more speakers from the amplification array. He threw them away but was reluctant to throw them away, and roared at the speakers to vent his frustration.
In the middle of the night, Nan Daying was frightened to death.
The volume of the six loudspeakers in the amplification array was indeed quite high, and they caused a lot of noise, keeping everyone else awake.
When Zhou Xiaozhou came to work, there were a lot of people who came to complain, and they all yelled.
"That man is a lunatic. Mr. Zhou, please ask him to leave immediately. If this continues, we will all be driven crazy by him..."
No wonder he was kicked out by the Ministry of Works.
Zhou Xiaozhou can't chase him away. He has finally refined a magic weapon, so just bear with it.
