Chapter 213: The Blacksmith Family (2)
"Guest, I'm afraid you're not here to talk about business, are you?" Tie Gao asked tentatively.
Li Junxian also smiled and asked, "Why do you think we are not here to discuss business?" ”
"Because you're more interested in what I'm on the shelf, it doesn't seem to be specifically for a certain kind of steel, but for the steel recipe of our Iron Family for dozens of generations." Tiegao said.
Li Junxian didn't expect that this Tiegao was so smart, and he could see at a glance that he was here for these special materials. These special materials are priceless treasures in the eyes of Li Junxian, a later generation. With these specialty materials as a base, the industry may soon be able to develop. Second, this Tiegao obviously did not realize the value of the special metals accumulated by himself for dozens of generations. He just used these special metals as something to make some strange weapons, but if they were used in industrial countries, it would probably be enough to increase the overall national strength of the country many times. Li Junxian doesn't know why the later generations have been lost, but the vicissitudes of life, maybe it is a change that has broken the inheritance! However, since Li Junxian has found it, he will definitely not allow the technology of these special materials to be lost.
"Well, it's refreshing to talk to smart people. That's right, I just want to come and see the technology accumulated by your iron family for dozens of generations. I didn't expect it, but I was very satisfied. Li Junxian said.
"You want to take away the research results of dozens of generations of our Tie family?" Tie Gao said angrily.
Li Junxian shook his head and said, "No, we just want to cooperate." ”
"Cooperation?" Tiegao didn't know what it meant.
"Do you know who I am?" Li Junxian asked.
"I don't know." Tie Gao replied honestly.
"My name is Li Junxian, and this is Wei Mulan, the inner son." Li Junxian said.
"You are General Li Junxian, who fought the Turks with a river of blood? The grass people have seen General Li, and General Li is mighty. Tie Gao hurriedly bowed and said.
"Where, that's all in the past, the hero doesn't mention the courage of the year." Li Junxian said.
Li Junxian is completely modest, in fact, less than a year has passed since the defeat of the Turks, and I am afraid that many people in Chang'an City remember it vividly. Now Li Junxian said that this matter was brave back then. It's also a bit too modest.
"General Li, why do you want these Qimen steels of our Tie family? You are a dignified general, you can't be so cunning, otherwise it will be detrimental to your reputation! Tie Gao said righteously.
"Jun Xian will look down on your scrap metal?" Mulan grabbed the white road.
"Mulan, don't be rude to Master Tiegao." Li Junxian said.
Mulan retreated aggrievedly, she didn't understand why Li Junxian attached so much importance to this blacksmith, and she didn't hesitate to teach herself a lesson. However, since it was Li Junxian who wanted it, Mulan definitely had no idea of disobedience.
"Master Tiegao, do you know what our army needs most in battle?" Li Junxian asked.
Tie Gao thought for a moment and said; "There is nothing more important than food and grass. And ordnance! ”
"And what is the ordnance made of?" Li Junxian asked again.
"Steel!" Tiegao replied.
"That's right, that's why I'm working with you." Li Junxian said.
Tie Gao immediately retorted: "General Li, the iron tools used by the army are all ordinary steel, and there is no need for the steel that I can only use with these Qimen weapons." Besides, I can't provide that much steel alone! Let's ask General Li to ask another Gao Ming! ”
Tie Gao was very disgusted with Li Junxian, because Li Junxian came for these special alloys. As a blacksmith, I know the importance of technology. And their Tie family has survived by researching these special alloys for generations, and has a high status in the Qimen weapons market. Although the market is not large, it is very stable. Although there are not many people who use Qimen weapons. However, most of them are passed down from generation to generation, so stability is not a problem. And the Tiejia family has relied on this very stable market to survive and reproduce from generation to generation. But now Li Junxian wants to obtain the technology of these special materials, which has already violated Tiegao's bottom line. If Li Junxian takes away the technology. Then these technologies are not exclusive, and there will be a lot of competitive pressure. Even Li Junxian can rely on his power to produce it in large quantities, so that Tiegao will have no market at all. Can't survive anymore.
Although Tie Gao disliked Li Junxian, he didn't dare to do anything to Li Junxian. After all, Li Junxian is an official of Sanpin, and he can pinch him to death as a blacksmith with one finger. So Tie Gao didn't dare to be too hard.
"General Li, although we have no power or power, we have a heart to guard the foundation of our ancestors. If you want to take away the inheritance left by our ancestors, then I will not hesitate to fight with you. Although I can't do anything to you alone, I still understand the truth of five steps of blood splashing when I am angry. When the time comes, General Li, aren't you afraid of the mouths of everyone in the world? General Li, your first famous name came from the corpses of the Turks, are you willing to let your first famous name be ruined for some scrap iron? Tetsugao asked.
"Hahahaha......" Li Junxian suddenly laughed.
"General Li, what are you laughing at?" Tiegao asked.
"Master Tiegao, I'm not here to take advantage of it, I'm here to give you a great fortune! A great wealth that can be enjoyed by dozens of generations, are you? Li Junxian asked.
Hearing Li Junxian say this, Tie Gao was a little puzzled, what kind of wealth is this? He was just a blacksmith, and his ancestors had been blacksmiths for dozens of generations. What great wealth can a blacksmith have? Even if the blacksmith achieves the level of Luban Mozi, he is still a craftsman, and he is simply a fart in the eyes of those powerful people.
The reason why Tiegao has been able to survive for generations is because they are professional in making those Qimen weapons, which has low competitive pressure and high threshold, but they are not taken seriously. If their family did the kind of weapons that ordinary armies commonly used, then I am afraid that they would soon be asked away by those warlords. When the time comes, it's good to spend money on you, but the most feared are those shameless warlords, who will force you to sign a deed of sale! Tiegao's ancestors had already had this insight, so they would not take the initiative to participate in the development of those conventional weapons, and concentrate on studying the materials of Qimen weapons. But now it doesn't work anymore, there are still people who are eyeing them, and tempting them with wealth and wealth. Tie Gao doesn't know how rich he is, and to what extent he can be rich.
