Chapter 167: The small people are willing to join the king
Second Elder Wu Tong's words opened up a new world for Yao Yun.
This world is always different from the previous life, and the power of the individual can turn things around, and the role of prestige, fame, and virtue will also be magnified.
In other words, the words of the second elder gave Yao Yun a reassurance, even if the secret of the method of iron smelting was exposed, Xidu would not be empty.
However, Yao Yun also knew that the Second Elder's words were purely to comfort him.
Although it is true that the method of making iron has great merit and many benefits, it is still necessary to look at the specific things.
At present, Xidu is forced to hand over the method of iron-making because of the threat of Izumo Kingdom, although the princes of Zhuxia, the princes of the world, and the people will also remember the merits of his Xiyun man Yao Yun, but the effect is always a little worse.
If Yao Yun offered the method of smelting iron at this time when the Zhuxia Dynasty was attacked by the barbarians from all directions, the war was raging, and the internal and external difficulties were in difficulty, then the effect would be very different, Zhu Xiazi thanked him, the princes of the Son of Heaven admired him, and thousands of Zhuxia Liming thanked him.
What kind of behavior is this? This is a noble act of taking the world as one's own responsibility, being generous and selfless, and it is the character that only a benevolent and virtuous saint can have, and with the wisdom of Yao Yun's ancestors, Yao Yun, an unknown prince, became famous in the summer dynasty at once.
At this time, Yao Yun was undoubtedly aura, and he completely possessed the profound foundation of competing for the position of the Son of Heaven.
Sending charcoal in the snow is always more precious than icing on the cake, and it is also a method of offering iron-making, and the treatment received will inevitably be extremely different, which Yao Yun, who has been a person in two lives, sees it very clearly.
When he doesn't look at the benefits, Yao Yun can also be willing to sacrifice the method of iron smelting, after all, the human race in this world lives too hard, and Yao Yun is not the kind of selfish person.
However, now Yao Yun's strength is weak, and he still needs to compare his interests, and it is best to maximize his interests.
Yao Yun and Wu Tong regained silence after talking in a whisper, and their eyes kept looking out, it was obvious that they were both waiting for the arrival of the bald dragon.
Now the situation is clear, but the most important thing is the purpose of Izumo Province's exploration of iron tools and how much Izumo Province knows about the method of iron making.
The bald dragon has already made a move, and it is not known how it is going.
While the two were waiting, a streamer flew into the hall, and a bald dragon appeared in front of them on the clouds.
"Uncle Long, what's the situation?"
The bald dragon's face was gloomy, and he shook his head and said, "The situation is not good, this dragon has caught a master soldier from Izumo Province, and he already knows that iron tools are made of ordinary iron ore. ”
Then, the bald dragon revealed all the news he had overheard.
Yao Yun and Wu Tong glanced at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but sink, the worst happened.
"He is worthy of being a master of forging, and he suddenly saw the extraordinaryness of iron, so it seems that the secret of the method of iron-making cannot be kept. ”
Wu Tong was optimistic and casual when he enlightened Yao Yun before, but when he suddenly heard bad news, he couldn't help but sigh.
Yao Yun calmed down and comforted: "Even if the method of iron-making is exposed, it doesn't matter, we can hand over the method of pig iron smelting, and the technique of steel-making can be retained." ”
So far, Wu Tong and the bald dragon have no choice but to nod.
Yao Yun thought about it, and asked the bald dragon to summon the master of the Izumo Kingdom, and now the only question is how much does the Izumo Kingdom know about the secrets of the art of iron smelting?
Soon, Master Liao came to everyone.
Yao Yun didn't say a word, and directly used his [Insight and Knowledge] magic power to see what happened.
[Liao Yuan: apprehensive, curious; root bone qualification second grade; heart qualification first grade, first grade baron refiner, good at casting soldiers, can be called everyone. 】
At first glance, Yao Yun didn't find anything wrong, the only thing he was surprised was that the other party was very bold, and he was curious about himself when he was caught, which was simply strange.
Everyone is looking at Master Liao, Master Liao is also observing Yao Yun and others, he has seen the bald dragon, Wu Tong is dressed as a witch Zhu, and his identity is easy to guess, Yao Yun, a young man, is sitting on the main seat, and his identity is also very easy to guess.
Master Liao suddenly understood the identities of the few people in front of him, sitting on the main seat must be the young King Xi, and the old man next to him was naturally the elder of the Wu Temple.
Master Liao's mind had calmed down on the road, but at this time, he did not panic and fear, and respectfully bowed to the ground, shouting:
"Xiaomin has seen the king. ”
When everyone heard this, they were happy, the title of the king was very intriguing, and the people of other vassal states would be honored as King Xi when they saw Yao Yun, as for the title of the king, it was generally the people of their own country who shouted so deeply, and the master of the army casting in front of him obviously went through the world, and there was no reason not to understand the twists and turns in it.
The other party's "king" was beyond Yao Yun's expectations, shouting "king" has a few meanings, showing favor or having the meaning of surrender, if this is the case, it is too undisciplined.
"You call King Lone?" Yao Yun asked with interest.
"Yes!" Master Liao smiled awkwardly, he was indeed showing goodwill, he knew his situation very well, according to the normal situation, his life would definitely not be guaranteed, and the only chance to survive was to show favor to King Xi.
Hearing the other party's refreshing answer, Yao Yun frowned, looked at Wu Tong and the bald dragon, and the one person and the dragon also looked confused.
"You're from Izumo Province, a dignified master of forging soldiers, you're not a guest wherever you go, why do you start stealing, why are you a thief!"
Master Liao looked embarrassed, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said: "The king has misunderstood, everything is a misunderstanding, Xiaomin traveled to various countries with the caravan, and met Xiguo's golden and stone tools on the road are extremely superior, Xiaomin knows a little bit of soldier-casting skills, and it is inevitable to be curious about such objects, I hope the king will see it!"
It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it, but unfortunately, Yao Yun is not the kind of person with soft ears, and said with a smile: "Iron tools, you don't recognize them, why hide them, what are you talking about gold and stone tools." ”
Master Liao smiled, not at all in front of the Izumo monarch, very respectful: "Yes, the king is really wise, I have also made things with iron, but unfortunately I don't know the art of iron smelting, after coming to Xidu, this is an eye-opener, I know that there are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the sky." ”
Yao Yun saw that the other party had been sloppy, and suddenly felt irritable in his heart, and said impatiently: "Master Liao, you are a master of forging soldiers, and I didn't meet you in battle, otherwise you would have been in a different place with your situation, let's say, what is the intention of the monarch of Izumo to send you!"
Yao Yun directly gave an ultimatum, he didn't want to be entangled with the other party anymore, and he got straight to the point.
Master Liao was also taken aback by Yao Yun's reaction, as the so-called gentleman deceived him, in Izumo Kingdom, the monarch treated him with three points of courtesy, he could naturally hold the shelf, but in Xi Country it was different, King Xi wanted to kill him and then quickly, if he pretended to be deaf and dumb and unruly, he would inevitably die in Xi Kingdom.
"Lord, the king of Izumo didn't send Xiaomin to Xiguo to find out the news of the iron weapon, I also accidentally broke the secret, Xiaomin knows that the king is in trouble, and I am willing to join the king. Master Liao bowed to the ground very undisciplinedly.
Yao Yun and the others looked at each other, this master was too undisciplined.
