Chapter 358

Dugu Junjie and his team stayed at Red Lotus Sect for more than a month, and the two sides reached a lot of cooperation projects.

Among them, the biggest transaction project is that Dayang Group assists the Red Lotus Sect to build a black iron factory, which can mass produce 60% black iron, and mass-produce high-purity black iron, with a maximum purity of about 90%.

This technology is already an obsolete technology in the current Qixia country, because Qixia country has fully authorized it publicly. However, this does not prevent Dayang Group from using this technology in exchange for high returns.

After repeated negotiations, this technology, together with the cost of building the factory, was exchanged for a 400-kilometer land at the mouth of the Skull River. The land is slightly long and narrow, distributed along the coast.

Yes, in exchange for 400 kilometers of land, the area is about 100,000 square kilometers.

100,000 square kilometers, for a holy place, a sesame seed is a bit bigger. But for Dayang Group, this can be regarded as the first overseas base, and it guards the mouth of the great river, so the geographical location is very superior.

For the current Red Lotus Sect, this place may be good, but that's it. For the time being, it seems to have a little value, but it is far inferior to the value of the Xuantie Factory. Both sides are happy.

However, the fine gold mine discovered at the mouth of the Skull River does not belong to the Dayang Group; but now the fine gold mine has almost been dug out, and it is just a small vein.

Then Dayang Group used 'incomplete artillery technology' in exchange for a full 120 tons of star gold! And 80 tons of Taibai fine gold.

This transaction made Liu Dingshan next to him jealous, and his eyes were about to spit fire.

To be precise, Liu Dingshan did not join the negotiation, but he knew the outcome of the negotiation.

You know, the annual output of the entire Qixia country is about 600 kilograms of star fine gold; the annual output of the Zhongshan country with the largest output in the west of Fertile Land is only about four tons. The total output of the entire Western Continent of Fertile Soil does not exceed six tons per year!

The measurement method of star fine gold is calculated according to 'points'. One catty is 10 taels, one tael is 10 cents, and one cent is 10 cents.

To make a relatively good magic weapon flying sword, two points of star gold are needed. According to Dayang Group's standard calculation, it is about one gram.

Now Dayang Group has obtained 120 tons of star gold in one go!

In addition, there is rarer and more precious Taibai fine gold.

If the star fine gold is a magic weapon and a space-type spiritual material, then the Taibai fine gold is a 'killing' type of spiritual material. Taibai fine gold, very hard and sharp. Added the flying sword made of Taibai fine gold, which can easily cut off other magic weapons.

But Dugu Junjie was not satisfied.

Because, 120 tons of star fine gold is really very little. This thing is almost 3.5 times the density of black iron, and 120 tons is only 4.3 cubic meters.

There are also 80 tons of Taibai fine gold, which is not much. Taibai fine gold is slightly lighter than star fine gold, roughly estimated to be 3.4 cubic meters.

Moreover, the star gold and Taibai gold provided by the Red Lotus Sect are very fragmentary and have different purity. The minimum purity is about 60%, and the maximum purity is only 80%.

But Dugu Junjie was very patient, he appraised each piece, and then discounted it for calculation. For example, if a piece of 2 kilograms of star gold has a purity of 81%, it will be calculated as 1.6 kilograms. 1% is calculated as fire consumption.

There is nothing wrong with this kind of calculation, but the face of Lan Baihong, the master of the Artifact Refining Hall, who was in charge of the transaction from the Red Lotus Sect, turned black—this group of profiteers who care about every detail.

But what impressed the Red Lotus Sect the most was that the Dayang Group exchanged a root of the Nine Earth Red Lotus with just a few words.

A root of Jiudi Honglian is 80 meters long and 2.7 meters in maximum diameter, plus various scattered roots, the total weight is more than 300 tons.

This root is used by the Dayang Group to go back and build a secret cultivation realm, imitating the cultivation environment of the Red Lotus Sect.

As a deal, the Dayang Group informed the Red Lotus Sect how to create a "small holy land practice environment". Really a few words. Of course, there are still a lot of detailed information, but the principle is very simple: high temperature and high pressure cooking spirit (spiritual stone).

With the Red Lotus Sect's ability to play with fire every day, the first practice secret room was created before the battleship left the port.

Standing in front of the secret room, Lan Baihong was still a little annoyed, "Master, you are so easy to talk. Just such a thing, even a root of the nine-ground red lotus was replaced."

Patriarch Zhenyang shook his head and asked his disciple Zhai Feihong, "Feihong, what do you think?"

Zhai Feihong thought for a while before saying, "Master, I don't think either of us will suffer. For us, if there is no reminder from Dayang Group, we may not be able to find this method.

As Dayang Group said, we don't have any, so they can charge high prices. Perhaps this matter sounds simple, but the disciple believes that Dayang Group must have put in arduous efforts when it first explored this technology.

Simple doesn't mean easy. "

Patriarch Zhenyang smiled with satisfaction, "It's good that you have such an understanding. I'm also relieved that the Red Lotus Sect will be handed over to you in the future."

"Master..."

"I'll just talk about it." Ancestor Zhenyang smiled, and then felt a little emotional, "The contact with Dayang Group is our opportunity.

The production of Lanbaihong, Xuantie Factory and artillery is left to you. "

"Yes." Lan Baihong replied seriously.

This time, the artillery technology brought by Dayang Group was not complete - Dayang Group gave the formula of gunpowder, which should be said to be very critical.

However, the production of barrels and key components was not taught. In the future, Dayang Group will bring barrels, primers, fuzes, key components, etc. The low-tech ones such as the base are produced on-site at the Red Lotus Sect.

After experiencing it in the secret room, Lan Baihong had to praise, "It is indeed a very powerful technology. But the leader, why don't we order a warship from Dayang Group? I heard people from Dayang Group say that their warship It's also for sale."

"Sixty million high-grade spirit stones!" Patriarch Zhenyang smiled wryly, "It's too expensive. We don't need ocean power for the time being, and we don't have the energy to do it. First, build the black iron factory and arm our masters." Besides.

By the way, Dayang Group sent many books on the art of war, and sent people to study them. "

…………

At the mouth of the Skeleton River, three steel warships slowly appeared. Countless people on the shore came to see him off.

After the battleship left the port, it did not immediately go north. Instead, it planned to rush hundreds of kilometers into the sea, until it was completely out of the sight of the master, and then turned around and headed north.

In this way, on the one hand, it is to prevent the Sacred Fire Sect from the north from sniping, and on the other hand, it also increases its own mystery, and shows the power of the steel warship by the way.

Now the estuary is not calm, a large number of sea monsters gather together.

And the three steel battleships rushed into the monster beast group like this, opening the way with artillery and depth charges. It savagely smashed away the boundless sea monsters, tore apart the magic spells released by countless monsters, and disappeared into the sky. The frenzied attack of the sea monsters couldn't make the warship deviate from its course.

The height of the warship's side was only three or two meters, but it broke through waves of more than ten meters all the way, faintly visible in the monstrous waves, and gradually receded.

On the shore, the flowers of passionflower were suspended in the air, listening to the faint roar coming from a distance, and watching the tumbling sea, I was fascinated for a while. After a while, I took a deep breath slowly and sighed: "It's so magnificent!"

Huang Shao, who was staying next to him, seized the opportunity and said, "Senior, our steel warships can also be sold."

"Hehe..." Hua Baixiang didn't speak. Your asking price for steel warships is too harsh, think of us as fools. We don't need steel battleships here for the time being, so it's better to spend this price on ground battles.

…………

When Dugu Junjie and his party started to return to the voyage, the tests at Beidou Academy in Ninghe County and Changshan Town were in progress.

It was past noon, and all the parents were staring at the sky. In the sky, there is a phantom projection of almost a hundred meters, showing the situation inside.

Seven or eight-year-old children are fighting for their future. Only a few hours have passed, and some children have obviously fallen behind.

It is five kilometers away from Beidou Academy to the final goal of the mountain, and there are still mountain roads along the way, which is not easy to walk.

Some children sat down as they walked, and some even cried. But some children don't cry or fuss even if they fall down, and keep going.

Some children linger in small games and even forget their purpose; but there are also children who are not addicted to games.

Some children will think hard when encountering difficult games, and will not give up until they are solved or they are really unable to do so, and move on. But some, they retreated despite the difficulties, chose the next goal, and kept moving forward.

Noon passed, but no lunch etc. was offered at noon. Some children start to feel powerless, but they don't give up, they grit their teeth and persevere; some start to cry and stop moving forward.

The screening of more than 12,000 children is not a small matter, and the Dayang Group dispatched a large number of personnel to protect the safety of the children.

If you are sure that the children are exhausted, or have completely lost their fighting spirit, or are crying too much, you will go in and hug them out, serve them a delicious meal, and then send them home with a smile—you have been eliminated.

But under Zhang Hao's instructions, the staff will not directly say the word "elimination", but will only say that your parents are waiting for you to go home. So most of the children threw themselves into the arms of their gloomy parents. No idea what kind of opportunity they missed.

However, when more than 2,000 children were eliminated, the crowd finally began to roar again, and some people questioned the test.

Zhang Hao had no choice but to stand up again, "It is said that three-year-olds look older than seven-year-olds, and seven- and eight-year-old children can only see a child's true nature because they don't understand the world!

Those who are steadfast, even if their qualifications are not good, we will accept them. Heaven rewards those who work hard, and we will provide them with a chance to succeed.

Those who are particularly smart, especially those who like to study, we will accept them to learn the knowledge of the Dayang Group, and teach them the knowledge of formations, magic weapons, alchemy, etc.

Those who touch and go, we will train them to become business talents.

And those who are particularly outstanding, we will focus on cultivating them. In the future, perhaps some of them will be able to enter the stage of transformation into gods!

Ladies and gentlemen, the tests of the university have been carefully considered, and each test has a purpose.

As for those who failed the test, don't be discouraged. Now Dayang Group, the Zhang family, and partners of Dayang Group have plans to recruit apprentices, and you can also sign up.

As an apprentice in Dayang Group, there is also a rising channel.

At present, we have formulated a three-level nine-rank craftsman system. They are workers, technicians and engineers respectively. As long as you can be a worker, you don't have to worry about food and drink. Those who can be engineers also have the opportunity to practice to the Nascent Soul Stage and even the Transformation Stage.

As long as you keep striving for self-improvement, as long as you don't give up, Dayang Group will provide you with an upward channel.

Tell everyone a fact.

The chief engineer of the steel battleship, his cultivation base is not yet at the foundation stage. To be exact, it is only the tenth level of Qi refining stage, less than Dzogchen.

The person in charge of artillery technology is also the tenth floor of the Qi refining period.

The person in charge of the current train technology is also in the Qi refining stage.

The person in charge of black iron and steel for alchemy is also in the Qi refining period! "

Wow...

Everyone was in an uproar. This was the first time everyone knew about the situation of the Zhang family, and it was really shocking. Was it the Qi refining period that created the current prosperity?

Finally, Zhang Hao emphasized again: "As long as you don't give up, the Zhang family and Dayang Group will open the door for you. Everyone, the country of Qixia has experienced thousands of years of suffering, why can we still rise?

Because, we have the greatest wealth:

Self-improvement!

I believe that this quality has been deeply imprinted in the soul of each of us. "

Zhang Hao's words were so powerful that many children who were taking the test also heard it. Some children's eyes seemed to be firm, and they vaguely understood something.
