In the fragrant carriage.
After listening to some of A Xing's reports, Zhu Hongyan lowered her eyebrows and seemed to be thinking about something.
Ah Xing looked at her infatuatedly.
It wasn't until Zhu Hongyan raised her head that A Xing quickly looked away, feeling flustered as if he were a thief.
"You said that a young master named Li has come to Beiba Village, and he can still order the officers and soldiers?" Seeing A Xing's appearance, Zhu Hongyan asked with a chuckle.
A Xing nodded quickly, "He's from the capital, he has eighteen guards, he's not an ordinary person."
Zhu Hongyan chuckled and nodded, "Brother A Xing, thank you for coming here to tell me this. I'll treat you to a drink another day. Today Hongyan really has something to do and I can't accompany you."
No matter how stupid A Xing is, he still understands that Zhu Hongyan is telling him to leave.
Although he felt a little disappointed, he also knew himself. He was very satisfied to be able to get along with such a beauty like this.
He immediately got off the carriage and went back.
After he left, the smile on Zhu Hongyan's face disappeared.
"This Beiba Village is getting more and more interesting. It seems I have to do something."
…
clang!
The mountain behind Beiba Village.
Li Ran took the black knife and asked the guard to hold the matching knife and chop him.
The knife in the guard's hand immediately broke into two pieces.
The black knife didn't even have a trace of curling.
He also sincerely praised, "What a knife!"
Then he tried the crossbow again.
While shooting, he also fired the crossbow.
After all, the crossbow he had played with before required half a day of fiddling with one arrow before shooting the second arrow. Its shooting frequency was not as fast as that of a bow and arrow. It was completely worthless.
Unlike today's crossbow, it is not only powerful, but it can also automatically refill arrows. It is also very easy to string. It can be fired ten times in a row without any problem. It is simply incredible.
"Mr. Li, these two things of yours, the sword and the crossbow are both divine weapons!"
After getting over his addiction to crossbows, he also sighed to Li Qian.
Of course, he had Li Qian's consent before Ma Linling gave him these two things to try.
Even during the process, Ma Lingling kept a close eye on him, for fear of taking these two things away.
Not just her, but the girls too.
After Li Ran tried it, he had to return it to them immediately.
Otherwise, he was really afraid that those girls would kill him with their eyes.
Li Qian smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Li likes to wield swords and guns."
"Mr. Li, it's not that I like to wield swords and guns, but now foreigners are eyeing my Dacheng country. If these magic weapons are used properly, they will be of great significance to my Dacheng!" Li Ran sighed.
Then he looked at Li Qian expectantly and said, "Mr. Li, I don't know if I can make a deal with you. As long as you are willing to dedicate these two magic weapons to the court, you can ask for as much money as you want. Of course, if Li There is no problem if Mr. Li wants to get an official position, and I can even recommend Mr. Li to the Central Academy of Sciences."
Li Qian just smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Li's identity is really not simple. Even the Central Academy can speak to him."
Li Ran smiled sheepishly, "Don't worry about anything else. I wonder if you are satisfied with the conditions I have mentioned?"
"Master Li, to be honest, if you want to mass-produce these two things, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult. Take the black knife for example. That's because there is a special ore to achieve this effect, but that kind of ore, I'm afraid, It's not easy to find." Li Qian said.
"What kind of ore is it? I can order people to find it right away." Li Ran said immediately.
"It's something called tungsten ore." Li Qian said.
He had no intention of hiding it from Li Ran. After all, tungsten mines were indeed difficult to find. He might not be able to find them, and he didn't have the time to look for them.
"Tungsten ore?" Li Ran frowned slightly, wondering why he had never heard of this kind of ore.
But he immediately said, "Mr. Li, if I can find tungsten ore, can you tell me the method of casting this black knife?"
Li Qian smiled and nodded, "There is actually not much skill in casting this black knife. As long as Mr. Li can really find tungsten ore, it doesn't matter if I tell you."
"Okay! Mr. Li is really happy." Li Ran clapped his hands excitedly.
"What about the crossbow? How difficult is it? Mr. Li can explain whatever else he needs me to do." Then he added.
At this time, Ma Linling pulled Li Qian aside.
"Mr. Li, do you really plan to dedicate those two things to the court?"
