Chapter 136: Invitation
After Chen Wusheng showed the trading chips, the atmosphere in the hall completely changed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe originally lifeless hall became lively, and the samurai present were all talking about it.
"Is that Darkiron Mithril? It's the first time I've seen such a large chunk, and it is said that as long as 1 ounce is added to the refining process, the forged weapon will be able to be used as a spell medium unimpeded! ”
"Not only that, but adding more than 3 ounces of Darkiron Mithril can turn the weapon into a spell amplifier, and the spells used will have a more powerful effect."
"How much do you think this piece weighs?"
"I think there's at least a pound."
"That means 17 ounces, to say the least?"
"Look at your little bit of interest, don't you see the Fuser silver in the back? That's a treasure, half an ounce is worth far more than a pound of Darkiron Mithril, such a large piece, it's really ...... I can't imagine it. The warrior's breathing became heavy and he began to speak incoherently, a sign of extreme excitement.
Suddenly, a military general stood up and said, "Your Royal Highness, the old minister has to retire in advance." ”
Seeing that someone retired first, the person who reacted slowly did not understand, and the person who reacted quickly also got up and retreated. This seemed to have become a tacit understanding, and the samurai present saluted one after another, and in the end, only the princess Ami Shida, the shrine maiden Chiwa Aoi, and the military commander Kobayashi Tamoto were left.
From Ami Shida's blank and embarrassed expression, Chen Wusheng was able to determine that her insight and understanding of the political situation was still immature, and she did not see the key point in a short period of time.
The matter is very simple, he showed his chips, and the samurai present saw enough benefits, and now go back to discuss countermeasures. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the factions in Yilei are not as strong as iron buckets, and for their own interests, they will give their valuable things in exchange.
"Ambassador Chen is really generous, are your envoys so rich?" The shrine maiden named Chiwa Aoi asked with a smile.
The witch in front of her should be in the identity of a strategist in the three-person team, she is not like the military general Xiaomei Duoben next to her, who did not say a word from beginning to end, and sat aside with a straight face. Aoi Mei is very generous in her words and deeds, and she answers questions very skillfully every time.
"Miss Aoi Mei said with a smile, although our Han Empire is strong, it has paid attention to etiquette since the country, and it is called the state of etiquette. We uphold the principle of peaceful coexistence, and this time we have come to seek solutions, and the necessary remuneration is reasonable, and these remunerations are provided by the imperial court, which is not my personal property. ”
"The Special Envoy is young enough to take on important responsibilities, and his future is really limitless."
Aoi Mei just wanted to compliment, but she found that Chen Wusheng did not gladly accept the compliment.
"Hahaha." Chen Wusheng showed a bright smile, "If I say that I was sent to die, do you believe it?" ”
The atmosphere at the scene became awkward, Ami and Aoi Xi didn't believe it, but Chen Wusheng's unwavering eyes seemed to tell them that all this was true.
"Please don't pay attention to what I say, let's talk a little bit else." Chen Wusheng was the first to recover, and then changed the subject. "I'm interested in your industrial technology here, can you show me around."
Now Ami Shida couldn't wait to get rid of the embarrassing atmosphere, first the uncle didn't show up for some reason, then many retainers left the table halfway, and finally the young envoy's words were intriguing. The combination of all kinds of things makes people feel unusual, and Ami doesn't know how to deal with it. Now that the envoy has given her opinion, Ami Shida can't think of a better option.
"Since Mr. Special Envoy is interested, I will take you to have a tour."
The visit can be said to be a sightseeing experience, and the valuable places are almost all confidential, even if Chen Wusheng is a special envoy, he can't see it. Therefore, the content of the tour is many agricultural bases and some industrial facilities that cannot be hidden.
After a brief observation, Chen Wusheng came to some simple conclusions. First of all, this post can meet the needs of self-sufficiency, with mountains, water, fields and land. Secondly, the open-pit bare mine is rich in resources, although it is only the most common pig iron, copper ore, etc., but it meets their daily consumption and war needs. Even if the post is missing, it can be transported and traded through a convenient railway network.
However, Chen Wusheng was very curious about the emergence of these railway networks, and it would never be possible to complete such a huge project in a short period of time, so Chen Wusheng specially asked Shida Ami.
"You mean this railway network? Well, I don't know exactly when construction began, but it is rumored that the gods sent an omen to foretell this disaster. So the daimyo and the lords of the castle joined forces to build this railway network. ”
"Legends?" Chen Wusheng doesn't believe in this statement very much, how can things be so coincidental, but the time interval is too long, in this chaotic background, there is no historical record, it is difficult to restore the truth.
"Your Royal Highness, Princess, please stay." A group of people hurriedly came and stopped Ami Shida. The comer is a group of samurai, wearing armor, with a mechanical box hanging on the back of the waist, which is equivalent to the drive core, which cannot be compared with the drive core of the Han Empire in terms of power and endurance, and the advantage is that it is simple to make and can be mass-produced, light and compact and can be carried around.
Second, the samurai had rectangular chests fastened to each side of their waist with belt sleeves, and a nail hook in front of each waist, which was connected to two compass devices behind them. During a previous visit, Ami Shida mentioned that it was a three-dimensional motorized device that could only be equipped by elite samurai in the Ekilei. It's not that production is difficult, but that it requires skilled operation.
A skilled samurai can perform difficult maneuvers such as gliding, turning, and swinging at a certain height in the air, and can move in a three-dimensional space in the buildings of a post house or in the woods.
However, Chen Wusheng saw the shortcomings, this kind of device is basically unusable when there are no tall objects around, in the final analysis, this set of equipment is a simple pulling device, there is nothing to fix, how to drag it away?
In addition, there are blind spots in the blind spot of passing between a large number of objects, and if a large strange ghost suddenly appears in the middle of the road, or if the rope is caught or cut, it is almost helpless.
Although there are many shortcomings and fatal, it is the best way to do it when there are not many warriors like monks like Fuso Kingdom. A large number of ordinary people have the possibility of fighting with the ghosts, and with the tall and solid city walls and a limited number of cannons, they can barely cope with the attacks of the ghosts, and if they want to counterattack, they can't do it at the moment.
"It's Yamada-kun, has my uncle responded?"
It seems that this samurai was the guardian of the castle lord's side, and Ami knew that the castle lord was meeting them when she saw him.
"Yes, the city lord received the people of the country of ninja before, and I am sorry for the delay."
"The Land of Ninja sent someone over? No wonder. ”
Chen Wusheng, who was on the side, asked suspiciously: "Your Royal Highness Princess, may I ask what the country of ninja is?" ”
"Oh, it's natural that Mr. Special Envoy doesn't know, the country of ninja is China, a country founded by ninjas, and they rarely have contact with the outside world, they are usually low-key, you are a native of the Central Plains, and it is normal not to understand."
Chen Wusheng listened to the "sudden realization" and said: "Oh, I want to go to Huihui them when I have the opportunity, I have a relationship with them. ”
"Well, if I have the chance, I will definitely bring the envoy to visit them. The ninjas haven't left Fuso for hundreds of years, and perhaps your ancestors have crossed paths with them. ”
"Hah, maybe." Chen Wusheng smiled in return, he did know these ninjas, the junior ninja was equivalent to the level of the Yellow Extreme Realm, the lower ninja was equivalent to the monk of the Xuan Extreme Realm, the middle ninja was close to the Earth Extreme Realm, and the upper ninja was the primary level of the Heavenly Extreme Realm. As for the rare shadow level, it has indeed reached the Heavenly Extreme Realm Small Perfection.
From ancient times to the present, Fusang has always wanted to get involved in the Central Plains. Almost every hundred years, they wage wars of aggression. It also happened to Chen Wusheng's generation, when he fought against the Five Shadows and almost killed them all. In the end, a contract was reached, the ninjas no longer touched the Central Plains, and Fuso was once again reduced to a vassal state.
[It seems that in the past thousand years, the ninja world has followed the contract. Hmph, do you want to do it without following it? They could not afford to break the contract. 】
"Princess, please go to the library with the envoy in a group, the lord of the castle is willing to exchange information with the envoy." Yamada Samurai said respectfully, not seeing anything wrong.
"Your Excellency, why don't we go and meet with my uncle first, and I'll take you on a tour later."
The places that should be visited have basically been visited, and Chen Wusheng also wanted to leave as soon as possible, so he did not refuse Ami Shida's proposal.
"Okay, please ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to lead the way."
Watching Chen Wusheng follow and leave, Yamada, who was standing behind him, smiled imperceptibly.
