Chapter 494: Suspicion
Everyone can be arranged to come to Liquan and supervise the distribution of interests of the lords in Juquanling, naturally they are all people who have been trained for a long time, what mysterious people, what underground palaces, these statements are not enough to make them believe, and they have long believed that Chen Hai is secretly colluding with the remnants of the Taoist Zen Academy.

What's more, Yan Yuan led the remnants of the Black Yan Army, and hundreds of thousands of people moved to Shouyang Mountain in the north of Yucheng Ridge, how could the lords not notice such a big movement?
You must know that Shouyang Mountain is closer to the Liangyong Miao clan, if it weren't for the transfer of the remnants of the Black Yan Army to Shouyang Mountain, it would have formed a barrier between Liangyong and the Black Stone Khanate and other barbarians, and even sent troops to expel them a long time ago.
However, Chen Hai bit his mouth and refused to admit it, so naturally they would not investigate the intricacies behind it.
At present, the emperor's dragon body is not safe, it is said that it will not last too long, and the two factions of Yanran Palace and the British King in the inner court have made frequent moves behind their backs, and they may soon set off some turmoil - the nine valves are all strong feudal clans in border counties, and they will not easily participate in Yanjing's internal fighting, but Yanjing is about to set off this turmoil, whether it will sweep the whole of Yanzhou into it, it is difficult to say now.
But in any case, it will not be wrong to add some strength at this time.
At the beginning, when I heard Chen Hai say that there were three or four hundred Blood Demon puppets, everyone was happy, but then when they heard Chen Hai's offer, they all gasped.
At present, a heavy celestial machine chariot is considered to be a loss during casting, and it also needs 100,000 catties of primary quenched iron, Chen Hai made it clear at this time that he needs to exchange 100,000 catties of primary quenched iron for a blood demon puppet, whether the price is high or low, Dong Pan and they will be able to judge for a while.
Moreover, such a big matter is not something that everyone here can decide, and it is necessary to send someone or rush back in person as soon as possible, and only after reporting this matter to their own lord and sect master can there be a definite answer.
Everyone said goodbye and left, Dong Pan dragged his farewell at the end, Chen Hai sat on the chair, held the tea bowl in one hand, looked at Dong Pan with deep eyes, and asked, "Hexi is all right?"
Dong Pan looked at Chen Hai's appearance, feeling that his deep eyes were like endless abyssal rivers, which made people unable to see through the depths, and he couldn't guess Chen Hai's question for a while, whether he was asking Chen Lie and the other people from the Zhaoyang Pavilion Marquis Mansion if they were okay in Hexi, or if they really cared about the situation in Hexi.
"Senior Brother Chen Lie has also been in retreat in Wangxi Peak for two years, I heard from the prince that Senior Brother Chen Lie has a great hope of cultivating the Dao Dan this time, and the Dan product may be quite extraordinary, but I am afraid that at this time, I don't know the good news that Chen Hou has stepped into the Dao Dan," Dong Pan carefully considered his words, "At this time, even the old man of Shenhou often mentioned Chen Hou to the disciples below, saying that Chen Hou is really an unborn disciple of the Taiwei Sect, and he can't be used by Hexi, which is really a big loss for Hexi......."
Speaking of which, Dong Pan felt that it was very inappropriate to say this, looking at the Tianji School Palace and the Longxiang Camp in the past two years, it seemed that there had been no major improvement, but the roots in the northern part of Tianshui County were very deep, and at this time, the remnants of the Heiyan Army moved to Shouyang Mountain, whether they would take refuge in the Tianji Academy Palace and the Longxiang Camp, no one could say, Hexi might not be able to accommodate the ambitious Chen Hai.
"......" Chen Hai nodded, he had the Blood Pill to help, Ning Chan'er had the Dao Yun Heavenly Pill, it was naturally easier to impact the Dao Dan, his uncle Chen Lie had not succeeded in cultivating the Dao Dan for two years of retreat, this was a normal phenomenon, it was not an accident, thinking that if his uncle Chen Lie failed to successfully impact the Dao Dan Realm this time, he would send one over after Ning Chan'er refined the Dao Yun Heavenly Pill.
As for Dong Pan saying that Dong Liang regretted behind his back, Chen Hai didn't believe it, after all, in the past two years, the Tianji Academy Palace has built Tianji warweapons, mainly for the Musashi Army and Tianshui County soldiers, to restrain the ambition of Hexi's eastward expansion, Dong Liang and Taiweizong and Hexi Protectorate up and down, if they don't hate him to death, they will be thankful, and now everyone is just keeping the last layer of face untorn, after all, Hexi is still counting on Lucheng to supply more than two million catties of intermediate quenched iron cheaply every year.
Of course, there is also an extremely important information hidden in what Dong Pan said, that is, Dong Liang, the Marquis of Wuwei, will no longer live in seclusion in the mountain gate as before in the past two years, and must deal with worldly affairs more actively than before, otherwise Dong Pan and the generals of the Protectorate will not have many opportunities to meet Dong Liang.
"No matter how many misunderstandings there were in the past, I never forgot that I was a disciple of the Taiwei Sect," Chen Haiyan said to Dong Pan sincerely, "This time the Blood Demon Puppet is also an accident, this side will first pay attention to what Hexi needs, and the price can also be subtracted by one percent - the Longxiang camp will not collect benefits from Hexi's transactions." ”
Dong Pan didn't know if what Chen Hai said was true or false, but he just said that he would go back immediately to inform the prince, and wait for the prince to make up his mind.
After everything was decided, Dong Pan did not delay, refused Chen Hai's intention to get up to see him off, and walked out.
After going out, Dong Pan subconsciously looked into the side hall through the crack in the door that was not closed, and saw Chen Hai holding a tea bowl and sitting there in the side hall of Nuoda in a daze, as if the burden of Wanjun was pressing on his shoulders, and there was a sense of loneliness.
Dong Pan secretly felt that this feeling was strange, but he also shook his head to get rid of such thoughts, and when he got out of the mountain gate, he sacrificed the spirit sword, turned into a streamer and flew towards the Baishiling Daoist Academy.
***********************
The Helan Sword Sect moved into the Wild Fox Ridge at the northeast foot of Qintong Mountain, but the eunuchs of the Yanran Palace were powerful, and the Helan Sword Sect and the Huang Clan were bent on gaining a foothold in the Wild Fox Ridge and the Yellow Elk Plain, even if they had a deep resentment in their hearts, they did not dare to run to the door to provoke the Tianji Academy Palace.
However, there are still some sword cultivation disciples of the Helan Sword Sect, who have never been willing to give up Helan Mountain and Hechuan County, and did not move east with the sect, but stayed in Hechuan County to organize resistance forces, and vowed to expel the Hexi Army.
The strength of these sword cultivation disciples is meager, and it is difficult to pose a serious threat in a short period of time, but they have the support of the Musashi Army behind them, and it is also a hidden danger for the Dong clan to completely annex Hechuan County.
In addition to the Musashi Army's army Chen Yu outside the county, the Tianshui soldiers have been supplied with a large number of Tianji weapons from the Tianji Academy Palace in the past two years - it may also be that after the Qintong Pass moved westward, the soldiers of the Su Guard Army reached the back of Tianshui County, so that Tianshui County and Huayang Sect had no other choice - their attitude also changed greatly, and they also put on a posture at this time, determined to curb the eastward advance of the Hexi Army.
All these situations have made Hexi extremely uncomfortable, and the prince Dong Chou has also been sitting in Hechuan County for more than two years.
Tsurukawa Castle, the county guard's house.
Several cranes swooped down from the clouds.
The other disciples had their own resting buildings, and Dong Pan rushed directly to see the prince Dong Chou.
At this time, the county guard mansion had already been renovated, and through several carved corridors, Dong Chou's study was in a green shade.
When he arrived at the door and was waiting for someone to pass the message, he heard Dong Chou's voice coming out: "It's Dong Pan, right? Come in, I'm waiting for you to come." ”
Dong Pan walked in briskly, and saw that the prince Dong Chou was reviewing something behind the table.
"Did you see Chen Hai this time?" asked Dong Chengchou without raising his head.
Dong Pan retold every bit of his meeting with Chen Hai in 1510, and after finishing speaking, he stood aside.
After a long while, Dong Chengchou put down the pen, tapped his index finger lightly on the table a few times and asked, "Chen Hai is going to release the Blood Demon Puppet to supply Hexi this time, so is there any matter of Qinchuan County and Tianshui County?"
The Musashi Army, which controlled Qinchuan and other counties, and the Huayang Sect, which stood in the Tianshui County soldiers, were not among the nine lords who jointly ruled Liquan, and Dong Pan could not find out whether Chen Hai secretly had any related transactions with Qinchuan County and Tianshui County in a short period of time, pondering the words of the prince Dong Chou:
"Chen Hai's offer this time is not low, Qinchuanling and Tianshui County have been squeezed dry in the past two years, I'm afraid I can't come up with so many chips, right?"
"A Blood Demon Puppet is worth 100,000 catties of primary quenched gold, it's not too greedy, after all, each family can get two million catties of quenched gold iron from Liquan every year, if they all exchange forty or fifty Blood Demon puppets, it will ......only give up their share in Liquan for two or three years," Dong Chou said in a deep voice.
In the past, Dong Pan would also feel that Chen Hai's price was too high, but at this time, Liquan produced nearly 40 million catties of primary quenched gold iron every year, and the nine valves accounted for sixty percent of the share, and this part of the share was still given up by Chen Hai on his own initiative back then, and the nine valves did not pay too much price, and at present, they only sent an elite to avoid the Su Guard Army or the Jingjun Sect Lord's greed for Juquanling.
From this point of view, Chen Hai's offer is really not high.
Dong Pan didn't speak, and the prince Dong Chou said again: "What do you say Chen Hai wants so much quenched iron gold for? If he wants to exchange for elixirs, magic weapons, or ask for a few more spirit swords, he can also say it." ”
Hearing what Dong Chou said, Dong Pan was slightly stunned, thinking that Chen Hai's price at that time was 100,000 catties of primary quenched gold iron or equivalent resources, and he did not say that he would deduct the quenched gold iron in Liquan in the hands of each family, but after thinking about it, the families finally decided to choose to trade with Chen Hai, and most of them would still choose quenched gold.
After all, this part of the quenched iron is obtained from Liquan Bai.
In this way, Chen Hai did not say it explicitly, but in fact, it also had the intention of secretly misleading.
yes, what does the Long Xiang Camp want so much quenched iron for?
At present, the share of the Heavenly Machine Academy Palace from Liquan has eight million catties of quenching iron every year, not to mention that it can secretly obtain some from Montenegro every year - the supply of such a huge amount of quenching iron is not enough, what does Chen Hai want to do with the blood demon puppet and exchange as many as thirty or forty million catties of primary quenching iron from the hands of the lords at one time?
Of course, the final amount was even more, and Dong Pan didn't believe that the number of Blood Demon puppets that Chen Hai traded with the Nine Valves was the final amount.
Dong Pan pondered for a while, and said: "The Long Xiang Army is only fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses at this time, but I think that the prince should consider the situation that the remnants of the Black Yan Army have surrendered to Hengshan at this time - in addition, Senior Brother Zhao Kuang's cultivation of Dao Dan, I can still see some clues, only Chen Hai's aura is integrated, and no one is allowed to snoop, I suspect that he has cultivated Zidan......"
"Zidan, at the age of thirty, Zidan, who else in Yanzhou has such an achievement, except for Wei Boyang, who is old and doesn't know whether he is dead or not?"
The study suddenly fell silent, only the sound of Dong Chou rubbing his fingers, and occasionally a birdsong came from outside the window, which was extremely harsh......
