The Daomen family has a great business, and in many cases, it is indeed wealthy, otherwise, Jia Jiu would not have taken away the stones worth tens of millions so easily.

Of course, while the family is big, it also means that the expenses are also large.

In a word, Daomen is also short of money.

With so many people to cultivate, cultivation naturally requires all kinds of resources. There are a lot of orphans in the Taoist temple below, which is also an expense, and more importantly, every year, the Taoist gate has to regularly distribute various medicinal materials to the people for free, and these medicinal materials or something, naturally also cost money.

Although the Daomen often organizes disciples to go up the mountain to collect medicines, a disciple who wants to be able to independently identify medicinal materials cannot succeed without more than ten years of hard work. The amount of money spent in the past ten years is not a small amount.

In a word, the Daomen has a large population, and the expenses are also large, and the amount of money needed is even more innumerable.

If it were a person like Jia Zheng, I heard that the price of cloth on the market could be reduced by half, and it would be possible for people to put away the loom at home and then let people go outside to buy cloth. But when it came to the ears of the high-level officials of the Daomen, they immediately knew that this was both an opportunity and a challenge.

The people in the Daomen know very well that in whose hands this technology is in their hands, then the people of the world will listen to what they wear.

The wealth contained in this, the influence in it, is definitely not clear in one sentence or two.

Ouyeyuan is obsessed with the art of casting and smelting, so he reacts to these things a beat slower than others. But Yan Xun is not the kind of person who is dull. Yan Wei could even guess another reason that Jia Jiu told him: Jia Jiu believed that even Daomen pretended not to care about such a skill. Including the Yan family and other families, they will not care.

If this rumor leaks out, it won't be long before many families will gather in Beijing. Compete for this technology.

As for who will end up with this technology, Yan Wei believes that his little junior sister will not care. Because this little junior sister has a thousand ways to achieve her goal. And I've seen this.

Just like now.

Yan Wei was very tormented.

He knew that as a disciple of the Daomen, he had to keep his mouth shut before the upper echelons of the Daomen knew about it. But as a child of the Yan family, Yan Wei has this obligation to give priority to his family.

Yan Wei's heart was heavy, facing all the senior brothers. For the first time, he couldn't hold that gentle mask, and even at night, when facing the old servant he brought, Yan Wei made an exception and didn't say a word. There is no outlet for even the daily greetings.

This old servant was when Yan Wei was a child. Just serve Yan Xun. Even if Yan Wei frowned slightly, he knew that Yan Wei had something in his heart. Therefore, seeing that Yan Wei just smiled at him and turned his head after coming back, this old servant knew that Yan Wei had something in his heart.

The old man was worried.

"Young Master, has something happened?"

Yan Wei paused and shook his head again.

Matters. He hadn't decided whether to tell his family or not. In other words, he knew that he should send the news back to the Yan family immediately, but he also knew it very well. Once he sends the news back to the Yan family, then. He could no longer stay on Yuqing Mountain.

With such a big benefit, Daomen will definitely not let go.

However, even if he knew that Jia Jiu was calculating him, Yan Xun just had no way to get angry.

Because he knows that this is a naked conspiracy, and no one can refuse. And this junior sister's favorite thing to use is Yangmou, and the most commonly used is a serial scheme.

Thinking of the serial scheme, Yan Wei was even more shocked.

He suddenly understood. Maybe that's the purpose of this little junior sister. If you are confused by the situation he portrays and pass on the message, then you are truly falling into the trap of the other party. As long as she doesn't move, this little junior sister will definitely find another way.

At that time, I could get more information from the other person's mouth.

Yan Wei couldn't help laughing: "Aren't you confused?" If I don't move, and Senior Brother Ouyeel doesn't move, Senior Sister won't be able to alarm the families, and naturally it won't alarm the teachers. Besides, although my sister said so, I haven't even seen a shadow of what he said, how did I get to this point of messing up? ”

The problem is Ouyeel. Yan Wei knew very well that Ou Yelu was a stupid white sweet who couldn't hide his words. As long as someone asks, Ouyelu will definitely shake everything out.

In the next few days, Yan Wei paid attention to the situation on Ouye's side from time to time. It was probably because his performance was more obvious that even the rest of the silver-clothed Daozi candidates noticed that something was wrong with him.

Several silver-clothed Daozi candidates did not think that Yan Wei would have feelings for Ou Yelu beyond the brotherhood of his teacher. After all, we have been in the same family for many years, and if we had this kind of emotion, it would have been done 800 years earlier, so why wait until today?

No one who can become a candidate for the silver-clothed Daozi is a stupid person, and after exchanging opinions, several people immediately came to a conclusion:

Eighty percent of the time it was that Tongyunliu who had something to do, which gave these two a headache.

No one doubted Jia Jiu's ability, and no one wondered why Yan Wei was so entangled and Ou Yelu seemed to know nothing. Because in everyone's hearts, Ou Yelu is a guy who doesn't care about anything other than casting, and can even put aside his cultivation for the sake of forging swords. Even if he was lucky enough to pass the assessment, some people thought that Ou Yeyuan's silver-clothed Daozi candidate position was a little watery.

However, luck is also part of strength. No one denies this.

After another half a month, Yan Wei was still silent, and even people with a heart noticed his entanglement, and he naturally couldn't sit still: "Mo Qingchen, something has been wrong with you recently, but has something happened?" ”

Although Yan Wei is said to be at the bottom of all the candidates in terms of cultivation and qualifications. But the silver-clothed Daozi candidate is the silver-clothed Daozi candidate, which is equally important for the silver-clothed Daozi lineage. Yan Wei's expression was wrong, of course he cared.

Yan Wei hesitated for a while before telling the whole story.

The old man immediately blew his beard and glared: "This Tongyunliu." It's just too presumptuous! are all on the repentance rock and restless! ”

Yan Wei said: "But the junior sister didn't make a mistake......

Lichen Dao said: "Alas, it is also our inconsideration. If it weren't for the repentance of the strong wind in Yangang, I wouldn't have asked your senior brothers to deliver food on my behalf. There would be no such thing. ”

Yan Wei hurriedly said: "Naturally, as a member of the Daomen, it is natural to share the worries of the teachers. Moreover, the junior sister is not a big mistake but has gone to the repentance rock, which is already harsh, is it possible to let the junior sister go hungry on it? ”

"Hey, you're still too soft-hearted." The elder of Lichen Dao sighed and said, "Don't say anything else." Tong Yunliu alone dared to calculate the Daomen, even if he failed to take action in the end, it was really a big rebellion. The Dao Decree grounded it in the Rock of Repentance. Just right. ”

Yan Wei replied: "Actually, in fact, in the eyes of the disciple, the junior sister can completely avoid resorting to these things. But the junior sister is so calm. Moreover, the younger sister did not put it into action. This ......"

"But he's already resorted to it!" Away from the dust, the old man flicked his sleeves. said: "Mo Qingchen, you have always been kind, but some things are incommensurate. As he spoke, he said earnestly: "Mo Qingchen, don't worry too much about the matter of Tongyunliu." That girl is the most elf-like. Xu He had other calculations, so he said this to your senior brothers. Don't take it too seriously. ”

Lichen Dao has been in the Daomen for many years. Even Dao Kui couldn't tell the ages of these two Dao elders. The long years have brought him enough experience, and he can see through Jia Jiu's calculations at a glance.

Yan Wei smiled bitterly: "Dao Lao." If only the junior sister's calculation was as simple as that. ”

The old man was very surprised, and said, "Mo Qingchen, why did you say this?" ”

Yan Wei said in detail like this.

The old man from the dust was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Mo Qingchen, I didn't expect that the old way was also calculated today." ”

Yan Wei hurriedly said, "But the disciple has caused trouble for Dao Lao?" ”

Lichen Dao Lao waved his hand and said, "It's irrelevant, it's irrelevant." I'm afraid that Tong Yunliu has already calculated that you will speak, so he is just waiting for you or Ou Yeliu to speak. ”

"Please also ask the elder to make it clear."

Old Man said: "Recently, the head of the Lu family personally visited Yuqing Mountain, do you know?" ”

"Huh? Yes! ”

Yan Wei suddenly realized.

Lichen Dao said: "See, that little girl has already calculated everything." Even if you can hold your breath, there will be people who can't hold your breath. ”

"That ......"

The old man waved his hand and said, "It's okay." This girl is just a means to raise her own value. Anyway, in the end, he still has to hand over things to Daomen, and it's not bad. Look at it. ”

Yan Wei was taken aback.

He didn't expect that all this would have been seen from above. After thinking about it, it became clear.

If Jia Jiu really had this kind of thing in his hand, Daomen would definitely not watch this thing fall into the hands of others. In other words, I have been worried in vain these days, and after all, I am just a pawn in another confrontation between my junior sister and my master.

Yan Wei, who wanted to understand, was speechless.

"Tong Yun flows his ......"

Lichen Dao Lao patted Yan Wei's shoulder and said, "Mo Qingchen, you are still too simple." Tongyunliu girl, you must be strict against him. Otherwise, I don't know when I will fall into his way. ”

Yan Wei said: "It seems that my cultivation is still not enough. ”

Lichen Dao said: "You are much more honest than that kid from Ouyelu." That kid found the old way as soon as he came down from the repentant rock that day, and told the whole story of the matter. Now, Ou Yelu is already reading the booklet that Tongyunliu handed to Daokui. When he finishes his enlightenment, you see if he will go to the Rock of Repentance. ”

Looking at the appearance of the old man from the dust, it seems that he is sure that Ou Yeyuan will try his best to go to Jia Jiu and discuss the matter of smelting and casting with the other party.

Hearing what Elder Lichen Dao said, Yan Wei's eyes widened slightly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that he is really asking for trouble these days.

Untied the knot in his heart, Yan Wei was interested in going to Ou Yeyuan.

Ou Yelu was dressed in a short suit, and he was busy standing in front of the fire, even if Yan Wei had been standing behind his side for a long time, he didn't see him turn his head.

It wasn't until Ou Yelu put down the hammer in his hand, wiped his neck with a sweat towel, picked up the kettle on the side and poured a big mouthful, that Yan Wei spoke: "Senior brother, what's wrong?" ”

Ou Yeliu said excitedly: "Senior brother, Tong Yunliu is a genius!" How did he know that adding this to this would make this steel so tough? ”

"Senior brother?"

Ou Yelu dragged Yan Wei and said loudly: "Senior brother, do you know that this kind of ore called manganese has also been noticed by my brother. Fifty parts of steel, as long as one part of manganese stone is contained, it will become as brittle as crystal, and it will shatter when struck lightly. In the past, this manganese stone made me feel like a great enemy. But you know what? Continue to add manganese stone to it, adding about 10% of the total weight, and it will make the steel extremely tough! ”

Yan Wei was dragged by Ou Yelu and felt a little painful, but he didn't care about the pain at all, and instead said, "Senior brother, are you telling the truth?" ”

Ou Yeyuan said: "Exactly. Did you know that even if the weight of the armor made in this way is reduced by half, the protection will not only not decrease, but will increase? In other words, it is a full set of Mingguang armor, which used to be two or three hundred catties, but now, only more than one hundred catties is enough. Nearly half of the horsepower can be saved! With this, our cavalry will be more mobile and able to deliver powerful blows to the enemy faster and more powerfully! ”

Yan Wei smiled bitterly: "So Senior Sister didn't lie. ”

Ou Yelu said: "What junior sister is lying! Tong Yunliu didn't lie at all! That's Tong Yunliu is too smart, others can't believe him! I won't tell you, I'm going to see Daokui, are you going? ”

As the candidate of the silver-clothed Daozi, whether it is Ou Yelu or Yan Wei, none of them have the qualifications to directly ask for the Dao Order. Even if there is something, they can only ask to see the silver-clothed Daozi above, and inform the Daokui, the national teacher and other silver-clothed Daozi of the matter, and let the other party decide whether to report or not.

Yan Wei said: "Senior brother, you said, the thing that Tong Yunliu said made the price of cloth drop by half......"

Ou Yeyuan said: "What does this have to do with me? I only care about casting and smelting. Something else...... I am not in charge of this cloth business. ”

Yan Wei said: "So, how does Senior Brother think that Tong Yunliu will reduce the price of cloth?" ”

"Probably to improve the loom so that it can produce more cloth or something." In fact, in this regard, Tongyunliu has been doing it for a long time. After all, silk and wool are different things. I've also vaguely heard a little, but I don't know a lot......" Ou Yelu said very unconfidently, but he quickly regained his spirits and said, "I'm going to see Daokui, will you go?" (To be continued.) )
