397 Forged Sword

In Da Zhou, an inconspicuous blacksmith shop in a small county town, a middle-aged literati walked in under the protection of several brave guards.

"Everything in the small shop is here, and you can take a look at it casually."

This group of people, from the middle-aged literati to the group of guards under his command, were all dressed quite elegantly, and they knew at a glance that they were not ordinary people, but the young man in the blacksmith shop was not frightened by their aura, he didn't even get up, and after saying hello, he continued to do his work.

The middle-aged man did not show any dissatisfaction with the young man's attitude, and he first walked around the blacksmith shop casually.

They watched them one by one, and played with the various goods displayed in the blacksmith shop one by one.

Don't look at this blacksmith shop is not big, there are really a lot of kinds of things they put out.

From swords, axes, to hoes and forks.

And the middle-aged man also looked at it very carefully, and he didn't let go of the goods in the entire store, whether it was blades or farm tools.

After looking at all the goods, the middle-aged man turned his head and focused on the young man who was still busy working.

"You forged these?"

"Hmm!"

"Where's your master?"

"He's retired, so you can leave any work to me." The young man continued to work without raising his head.

The middle-aged man shook his head: "You can't build what I want!" ”

"Ding!"

An even more dull voice sounded, and the movements in the young man's hands stopped, and he turned his head to look at the middle-aged man: "There is nothing I can't build!" ”

When the young man said this, there was no expression on his face, as if he was stating a fact.

The middle-aged man didn't defend him anything, but just took out a fist-sized ore from his arms, red as blood: "I'm going to make it into a long sword!" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, reached out and took the piece of ore as red as blood, and shook his head after a moment of careful consideration.

"This thing is a waste and can't be used to forge anything at all."

"That's why I said you can't!"

The middle-aged man shook his head and stretched out his hand to get the piece of ore back, but found that the young man's eyes were directly red, and he had no intention of letting go of the piece of ore at all.

"As I said, there's nothing I can't build!"

After saying that, the young man turned around directly and threw the piece of ore that was as red as blood into the iron furnace in front of him.

Then the young man picked up a hammer and slammed it hard, directly smashing the piece of ore that was as red as blood.

At the moment when the ore shattered, an old figure appeared behind the young man......

…………

Great Zhou, East China Sea!

Liu Cheng and his entourage came out of the copy smoothly, and this trip to the copy brought huge benefits to Liu Cheng.

A population of more than 100,000 people, more than 20 million gold.

These alone are enough for Liu Cheng to digest for a while.

However, after the copy was released, Liu Cheng had no intention of digesting it at all.

From the first day he came out, Liu Chengcheng began to attack the Ryukyus.

But there is always an excuse for fighting.

You can't just hit someone without saying anything, right? This will give the impression of being overbearing.

So as soon as Liu Cheng got started, he took the matter of the last time the Ryukyu navy attacked him, and sent someone to the Ryukyu country to ask for an explanation!

At the same time, Liu Cheng Donghai also blatantly dispatched troops, putting on a posture of 'if you don't give me an explanation, Lao Tzu will beat you'.

As soon as Liu Cheng's posture was swinged, the envoy faction, and the Ryukyu country immediately panicked.

…………

The Ryukyu Kingdom is located between the East China Sea and the South China Sea, with a total area of about 18,000 square kilometers, and the area of two or three counties in the Great Zhou, with a population of about two million people.

Such a country, let alone facing the Great Zhou, even if Liu Cheng was only the overlord of the East China Sea before, they didn't dare to offend easily.

Logically speaking, such a country would not have the courage to make a move against Liu Cheng.

However, this country is not a unified country, and in fact, the Ryukyu king has no rights.

The power of the entire Ryukyus was controlled by several families and chambers of commerce in the Ryukyu Kingdom, and even the army was their people.

And this group of people is the most interested, before seeing that Sanhai was ready to make a move on Liu Cheng, he didn't hesitate to make a move when he thought it was profitable, but as soon as he made a move, he kowtowed.

However, this group of people is also tactful, seeing Liu Cheng so terrifying, after they hit the wall, they immediately gave Liu Cheng a generous gift.

and sent all the heads of Zhao Zhao's family, saying that this matter was done by Zhao Zhao alone, and it had nothing to do with their Ryukyu Kingdom.

Regarding their admonition, Liu Cheng did not say anything at that time.

But then Liu Chengcheng seemed to forget about their Ryukyus, and spent all his energy on the three seas.

Liu Cheng's actions made the Ryukyu Kingdom think that this matter was over, but no one thought that a few months later, Liu Cheng brought up this matter again, and now those families and chambers of commerce in the Ryukyu Kingdom were all panicked, and immediately gathered all the people who could manage the affairs of the Ryukyu Kingdom and those who had a little power to discuss countermeasures!

……

Shurijo Castle, the capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

The main leaders of the three major families of the Ryukyu Kingdom and the four major chambers of commerce gathered, and everyone looked gloomy.

An old man with white hair complained and spoke first: "I said at the beginning, don't provoke the Zhou people, let them fight themselves, you don't listen, now that the wolf has been recruited, you see what to do!" ”

A middle-aged man on the side stood up directly: "Don't say such things, yes, you were against it at the beginning, but when we made a move, you didn't stand idly by!" ”

"That's not your ......"

"Alright, alright! Don't make any noise! ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, the one in the first seat slapped the table.

The prestige of this one did not seem to be low, and as soon as he spoke, everyone present immediately fell silent.

After everyone was quiet, the first one continued to speak: "The matter has come to this point, it's useless for us to say anything, you have also seen the other party's conditions, this time let's break the fortune and eliminate the disaster!" I'll give five million gold! ”

As soon as they heard that they were going to pay for it, the few people who had quieted down suddenly became a little commotion, and they talked about it one by one.

It's not that they don't want to pay, but they are worried that they will give the money, and Liu Cheng will not give up.

Seeing that the scene was about to be chaotic again, the one on the first seat was furious!

"What? Don't pay for it, then you can fight him! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

Just kidding, if you can beat Liu Cheng, why is it so......
