Chapter 111 News of the Defeat

The night was dark, but inside the Black Iron Guild, it was equally dark.

As Li Yuanyuan pushed her father Li Yousheng to sit next to the Zhang family, the peace was broken.

However, Zhang Hao could tell from Li Yousheng's brisk steps that Li Yousheng was very happy.

Speaking of which, Li Yousheng was one of the first families invited by the Zhang family at the beginning of the establishment of the Iron Guild; but later, among the main personnel of the Xuantie Guild, there was no place for the Li family.

Seeing Li Yuanyuan leave, Gongsun Xuan became a little anxious, and turned to look at his father, Gongsun Yunlong.

"Unbelievable!" Gongsun Yunlong reprimanded through sound transmission. Then Li Yuanyuan obviously went after Zhang Hao, why did you join in the fun in the past, isn't it embarrassing enough! Besides, as the head of the organization department, Gongsun Yunlong enjoys many conveniences in the Xuantie Guild, so he doesn't want to give up.

A moment later, there was only one person left on the scene who hadn't stood in line—Feng Tai, head of the patent department.

Many eyes stared at Feng Tai, waiting for Feng Tai to make the 'correct' decision.

Now, several ministers of the Xuantie Guild are all on Zhou Bo's side; the most influential one on Zhang Shengde's side is Li Yousheng.

Feng Tai is still observing.

Zhou Bo looked at Feng Tai, full of pressure.

And the way Zhang Shengde looked at him...he didn't care!

Feng Tai's mind became active. If you continue to stay with the Black Iron Guild, you will see the benefits, that's why so many people choose the Black Iron Guild.

But looking at Zhang Shengde's eyes and analyzing the actions of the Zhang family, I am afraid that the interests of this factory are greater. Considering that the Zhang family has always insisted on absolute holdings before, it is obvious that the Zhang family is more optimistic about the Xuantie factory.

It's just that I don't know how much profit I can get when I come to the Zhang family?

Obviously, this is a big gamble!

Seeing that he was the only one left, Feng Tai gritted his teeth and came to Zhang Shengde's side.

So far, the Black Iron Guild has been completely divided into two parts.

Half of Zhang's family is mainly small and medium-sized families; half of Zhou Bo's side is mainly large and medium-sized families. Based on the overall situation, the Zhang family only attracted one-third of the strength of the Black Iron Guild.

Ouyang Si said: "Okay, let me be a witness. Starting today, Zhang Shengde is in charge of the factory, and Zhou Bo is in charge of the guild. If you have anything, you can negotiate with each other.

Zhang Shengde is still the chairman of the Xuantie trade union, and the Xuantie factory is also a part of the guild. "

Who asked you to be a witness! Zhou Bo was not very happy, but he couldn't refute it, so he could only respond, his face naturally not good-looking.

After Ouyang Si finished speaking, Zhang Shengde immediately said to the people on his side: "The situation is urgent now, everyone prepares, and we will meet at Zhang's residence tomorrow to discuss the construction of the factory together."

Zhou Bo frowned: "Chairman Zhang, why don't you come to the guild?"

"It's my request!" City Lord Liu Jingming suddenly said, "Tomorrow I will also participate in the discussion on factory construction. During this process, some important matters may be involved. Chairman Zhang will communicate with everyone after the meeting is over. "

As soon as Liu Jingming opened his mouth, the hearts of everyone around Zhou Bo thumped: The situation seems to be bad!

But everyone on Zhang Shengde's side saw joy in each other's eyes.

Liu Jingming and Ouyang Si got up, Zhang Shengde called Zhang Hao again, and everyone left together.

When Zhang Hao and Zhang Shengde returned to the mansion, they received the good news: the elixir that the Zhang family entrusted Zhou Jue and Xinglintang to refine had been delivered.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhou Jue laughing loudly: "Brother Shi, all the materials for the 18 dragons have been refined into pills. According to the agreement, half of them have been delivered.

There are 5 kinds of pills in total.

There are 1,600 'Dragon Blood Pills' mainly refined from ordinary dragon blood, and the medicinal effect is equivalent to the 'True Yuan Pill' used in the Foundation Establishment period, which can supplement the true essence and assist in cultivation.

The 68 'Longyuan Pills' refined with painstaking efforts are equivalent to the 'Ziyuan Pills' used in the Jindan period, which can assist in cultivation.

26 'Huanyang Pills' refined from dragon horns and bone marrow can be used to extend life at the Jindan stage and below. Even if the golden elixir collapses and the viscera are displaced, if one of the yang elixir goes down, it can last for three hours.

Seven 'Dragon Tiger Pills' made from dragon balls. Because of the difficulty of refining, it failed five times, and there were only 13 pieces in total. Dragon and Tiger Pills can be used for cultivation in the Nascent Soul Stage.

16 'Dragon Marrow Pills' made from borneols and spinal cords, have the effect of consolidating spiritual knowledge and accumulating primordial spirit, and can be taken above the foundation building stage. "

Zhang Hao looked at the elixirs in front of him, but keenly discovered that the elixirs were still labeled as 'high-grade', 'medium-grade', and 'low-grade'.

"What is this?" Zhang Hao asked, pointing to the label.

Zhou Jue smiled: "The dragons we hunted last time had different levels of cultivation, so the effects of the refined pills are naturally different.

Taking Dragon Blood Pill as an example, the lower grade corresponds to the early stage of the foundation building period, the middle grade corresponds to the middle stage of the foundation building period, and the top grade naturally corresponds to the late period and even the peak of the foundation building period. And so on for the rest.

It's a pity that among the dragons hunted and killed this time, none of the Nascent Soul Stage was found, so only the Dragon Tiger Pill refined with Dragon Balls could barely reach the low-grade level. "

Zhang Hao understood that Zhou Jue was asking for credit—look, don't worry about what I do. Zhang Hao immediately thanked Zhou Jue. I thought to myself, is it necessary to talk about the black iron for alchemy next?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Jue changed his voice and talked about something else: "Brother Shi, do you know that we failed in the war in the Kingdom of Jinyang?"

"What!" Zhang Hao almost jumped up, really startled by Zhou Jue's news.

Previously, Zhang Hao believed that even if the frontline was a defeat, it definitely did not qualify as a 'failure'. Failure and failure are two completely different concepts. And Zhang Hao didn't think that Zhou Jue would joke about it.

Facing Zhang Hao's burning gaze, Zhou Jue sighed: "This time, the two eastern countries took the initiative to attack, which caught us off guard.

Recently, the two countries in the East sent troops from the north and the south at the same time, but the coalition forces on our side failed to stop them.

Today, more than half of the Eastern Kingdom of Jinyang has fallen. Anqing, the imperial capital of the Kingdom of Jinyang, is also in jeopardy. Sima Tao from the Land of Canglan, and Lan Jianwu from the Land of Taihua, the two great generals of the Shangzhu Kingdom, firmly restrained Anqing and by the way all the forces stationed in Anqing. "

Zhang Hao was stunned for a while, took a deep breath, and slowly calmed down his turbulent mood. "Now, how long can the Kingdom of Jinyang hold back?"

"Not sure!" Zhou Jue's face was also very solemn, "To be honest, I don't understand military affairs. But the leader said that if the six western countries can unite as one, they can still repel the eastern attack. But now the six western countries In between, it is intrigue.

So what is the situation now, the head is not sure. But as far as the current situation is concerned, it is not optimistic.

In addition, now that the East has monopolized the trade routes, medicinal materials cannot enter, and our situation will become more and more severe. "

Zhang Hao was silent for a while, and said: "Then we should build the factory as soon as possible. Our only advantage now is a large amount of black iron. We need to turn black iron into weapons as soon as possible."

Although Zhang Hao also hated the intricate plots made by the high-level officials of the Six Nations, the most urgent task was to protect himself. If the country of Qixia fell, the Zhang family would have no place to stand.

When Zhou Jue heard this, he smiled immediately, with a bit of bitterness in his smile: "Brother Shi, if you want to significantly affect the war, ordinary magical weapons and magic weapons are not enough, you need spiritual weapons. But there are very few materials for refining spiritual weapons. .”

Zhang Hao's heart skipped a beat, he was still too young.
