"Sure enough, it's a good knife!" Cheng Yun's third uncle withdrew the battle mang, and raised the blade of the sword to his eyes to take a closer look.

There are many fine red lines on the blade, and there are also lines formed after repeated beatings.

He flicked his fingers twice on the blade, listening intently for the sound of the blade.

Then he put back the straight knife and picked up the spirit iron and looked at it, the surface of the spirit iron also had red fine lines.

"This thing should not be iron essence, iron essence is the essence of iron, the surface is dense like jade, the sound is like a wind chime, even after many stacks, there will be no knife lines. The material of this knife is not much different from that of ordinary hundred steel knives, but the loss of battle qi is extremely low, and the conduction speed is also extremely fast, almost no different from iron essence. And these red lines are very peculiar, as thin as a gossamer, dense as a woven net, but they are integrated with iron, and my brother has never heard of such gold and iron. Cheng Yun's third uncle only took a brief look at it, and analyzed the various characteristics of Chi Ling Tie, and then he added in an uncertain tone

"Guess for my brother, this red fine line should be the key to this spiritual iron being able to conduct battle qi like an iron essence!"

"Third brother, do you think this red fine line is born like this, or is it mixed with ordinary iron when it was created?" The head of the Cheng family asked in a deep voice

"Big brother suspects that this Pan family has a secret method that can produce such spiritual iron in large quantities?" Cheng Huanzhang's eyes lit up when he heard this, if the family got this technology...

The third child of the Cheng family didn't think much of Cheng Huanzhang's thoughts, he didn't think that he could get such a secret method, and he was essentially a businessman and preferred to trade with others.

"Brother, my brother's knowledge is shallow, and I can't tell whether this thing was born or made by secret methods. However, even if this red fine line is mixed into ordinary iron with a secret method, with its magic of being able to turn ordinary iron into iron essence, it is also an extremely rare thing, and it was not known before, even if we get the secret method in our hands, it would be useless without this thing. ”

Everyone present knew that what Cheng Laosan said must only be mastered by the core figures of the Pan family, just like the secret method of the Cheng family's battle qi cultivation, only the best qualified descendants can practice.

Cheng Laosan's implication is to let Cheng Laosan dispel the idea of taking it by force.

Cheng Lao Er was exposed to his thoughts, and smiled awkwardly

"The third brother laughed, if you are shallow, then the rest of our Cheng family has become an uninformed villager? What do you say, among our brothers, you have the most ideas. ”

"Third brother, tell me your suggestion, how do you think we should deal with this Pan family that suddenly appeared?" The head of the Cheng family also happened to want to listen to Cheng Laosan's opinion, so he followed Cheng Laosan's words and asked

Because Cheng Laosan often deals with various caravans, he has a lot of information, especially the intelligence outside the Tang Dynasty, which is not even comparable to Cheng Huanyuan, who is the envoy of the Broken Leaf Festival, but this Pan family claims to be a Han remnant from Persia, so he thinks so much of Cheng Laosan's opinion.

"Our Cheng family has a lot of business is with the caravan from Persia, I have dealt with these people a lot, as far as I know, there are indeed many Han people in Persia, many Han people also serve as the staff of the governors of Persia, but the status of the staff is not high, the Persians do not allow the Han people to have arms, the local Han people are often oppressed by those armed tribes, especially the Turks in Persia, often plundering the wealth of the Han people."

"Abominable!" When Cheng Lao Er heard this, he slapped the table with a slap and cracked the tea table next to him with a palm.

"The second child is a little calm, and the third child continues." The head of the Cheng family glanced at his second brother, Anxi himself is doing this kind of thing, there is no need to be so shocked.

"Yun'er said before that the Pan family is very numerous, strict in governing the family, has a military style, is young and strong, and even has more than a dozen government soldiers, but there is a lack of weapons and equipment, and the head of the Pan family is not familiar with the military system, and when he trains the new army, it is more like doing it according to the book... Who does the big brother think this performance looks like? Cheng Laosan asked with a smile

The head of the Cheng family was only slightly stunned when he heard the question, and then thought of the answer

"That's how those Hu people in my Anxi territory are, hehe, I see."

Cheng Laosan scratched his bare chin with his hand and said with a wry smile

"Thanks to the fact that the head of the Pan family does have the qualifications of a famous general, is familiar with military books, knows that Qi is compatible, has great courage, and is lucky, this is why Panjiabao and Wuhe have two great victories."

Among the people seated, Cheng Yun had the most contact with the Pan family and knew the Pan family's army the best

Panjiabao's two military victories did have some luck factors. At the same time, Pan Xiaogu's various whimsical ideas also played an indispensable role.

"How does the head of the family think we should get along with such a family with mediocre strength and no foundation, but with great potential, and with good intentions towards us, willing to cooperate with us, and able to bring us huge benefits?" Cheng Laosan was asking questions on the surface, but his meaning had been clearly expressed, that is, to carry out cooperative relations with the Pan family.

"The third brother's words penetrated into it, and it immediately solved the doubts in my heart, and it is worthy of being the first think tank of my Cheng family." The head of the Cheng family first praised Cheng Laosan, and then said

"As the third brother said, this Pan family is indeed a big help at present, I intend to cooperate with it, I don't know if you have any objections?"

"We will obey the orders of the head of the house."

The head of the family has spoken, how can the core figures of the Cheng family who are sitting still have any objections, they are inclined to cooperate with the Pan family when they are come, even Cheng Huanzhang, who was thinking about the production of spiritual iron before, is just a momentary desire to make money, and he was originally inclined to cooperate with the Pan family.

If Pan Xiaogu knew, the lie he had worked so hard to make up to buy Lingtie from Persia did not deceive others.

On the contrary, because the benefits he took out were too great, the allies he originally wanted to win became greedy, and he almost became an enemy, so he had to vomit blood.

There is no way, because of the information asymmetry, although he has realized the value of Lingtie, he still underestimates how huge the benefits involved in Lingtie are.

Fortunately, in the end, because of his own brain supplement, the other party thought that the secret method of producing spiritual iron was difficult to get into his hands, and he gave up the idea of stealing and grabbing, I am afraid that things will evolve to the point of being out of control - the territory has been conquered, and the system building can still play a role, and when the time comes...

The Cheng family's spokesmen unanimously approved the intention to cooperate with the Pan family, and then they studied how to cooperate, and at the same time they sent an envoy to the Yang family to understand the meaning of the Yang family, after all, it was not the Cheng family that was found by Pan Xiaogu in the first place.
