Chapter 5: Governing Fang City

"Patriarch!"

"Second uncle!"

"Third uncle!"

When Ye Bai and Ye Xuan walked into the clan hall, there were already three people sitting in the hall.

"It's coming!"

Seeing the arrival of the two, the three people who were originally chatting focused on Ye Bai and the others, "The reason why I called you over this time is because there is something to announce!"

"Things?"

Hearing this, Ye Bai and Ye Xuan glanced at each other.

"The clan plans to promote Ye Xuan to the position of mine manager!"

Patriarch Ye Xiong spoke.

"Ore steward!"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan's eyes widened. Although he managed the mine at this time, he was not famous, and now it can be said that he is right.

"Congratulations to Brother Ye Xuan!"

Hearing this, Ye Bai hurriedly said hello, Ye Xuan's originally dark face became red, and he didn't know if it was because of excitement or for what reason.

In this regard, Ye Xiong and the other three glanced at each other, and said to Ye Bai with a smile: "In addition, the clan plans to let you be in charge of Fang City!"

"I'm in charge of Fang City?"

Hearing this, Ye Bai's eyes widened, and he even thought that he had heard it wrong. After learning that he had heard correctly, Ye Bai was stunned for a moment.

It's no wonder that Ye Bai is so unbelievable, the fang market is the cornucopia of the family, and the quality of a fang market can completely affect the development of a family.

The most abundant in the vicinity of Ironstone Town is ore, different ores forge weapons, and through the sale of the market, it can be said that if a market is not well run, it will even make the weapons unsalable.

"Not bad!"

Patriarch Ye Xiong nodded, looked at Ye Bai and said, "You have also grown up, and it is also the opinion of the three of us that the Fang City will be handed over to you to manage, although this is the case, we still send a steward who has helped the family work for ten years to assist you!"

Hearing this, Ye Bai groaned slightly, and didn't shirk it anymore, nodded and said, "Yes!"

Half a day later.

Ye Bai and Ye Xuan walked out of it, and both of them had smiles on their faces.

"Brother Ye Xuan, the Wang family will ask you!"

When leaving, Ye Bai opened his mouth and asked.

"Don't worry, once there is any movement in the Wang family, I will send someone to inform you as soon as possible!" Ye Xuan patted his chest and said.

In this way, the two separated, Ye Bai went in the direction of his own market, and Ye Xuan also had other things to do.

Half a day later.

Ye Bai came to the Fang City to which his family belonged again, but this time his mood was completely different from before.

"Young Master Ye Bai!"

When Ye Bai was groaning in his heart, a shout came into his ears, and not far away, a man in cloth clothes walked towards him.

"You are?"

Looking at the person in front of him, Ye Bai showed a look of doubt.

"Villain Tielong, I learned that the young master has become the person in charge of Fang City, so I came here to wait for you!" said the person who came with his fists folded respectfully.

"You're the steward my father said I was?"

Hearing this, Ye Bai showed a sudden look and spoke.

"It's the villain!"

Tielong nodded.

"In that case, then take me to get acquainted with Fang City!"

Ye Bai nodded and said.

"Young Master, please come along!"

With that, Tie Long led Ye Bai to inspect the city.

There are a total of 127 shops in Yejiafang City, of which nearly 70% are selling ores, and the remaining 20% are shops such as pills.

Hearing Tie Long's words, Ye Bai nodded and didn't say anything more.

Along the way, there were many shops selling ore.

Of course, this is also related to the geographical environment of Tieshi Town, after all, there are all kinds of mines near Tieshi Town, as the so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, so there are many shops selling ores in the Iron Stone Town.

Just after the two of them walked for a while, the two stopped in front of a shop.

"This is the clan's refining workshop, where all kinds of weapons are forged, among which there is one refiner and ten refining apprentices!" Tie Long introduced.

"Alchemist!"

When Ye Bai heard this, his eyebrows raised upward.

In the mainland, refiners, alchemists, array mages and other professions are very sought after, after all, one out of a hundred martial artists is already good, so it is very rare.

So when Ye Bai heard that there was actually a refiner in the family, he was so surprised.

"Young Master, please come in!"

Tielong stretched out his hand.

The two little servants at the counter saw the steward respectfully leading a young man into the store, although they didn't know who the young man was, but when they saw the steward so respectful, they didn't dare to underestimate it, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Lord steward!"

"This is Young Master Ye Bai, and in the future, the Fang City will be in charge of the Young Master!"

Tielong explained to the two servants.

"Young Master Ye Bai!"

When the two little guys heard this, they hurriedly said respectfully.

"Master Yuan is inside?"

Tielong asked.

"Master Yuan is inside!"

The two boys nodded.

"Young Master, please come in!"

After learning that the master was inside, Tie Long led Ye Bai into the back of the shop, entered the inner hall, and a courtyard the size of a football field appeared in front of him.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

At this time, the whole yard was in full swing, and even a blazing heat wave was coming.

"This is the clan's refining workshop!"

Looking at the ten refining apprentices in front of him who were beating the ore in full swing, Ye Bai nodded.

The first step in refining an ore into a weapon is to burn the ore in a furnace, then hammer the ore with a hammer to hammer it out, and then burn it into a liquid and put it in a mold.

The first step requires a lot of effort, firstly, the ore is hard, especially for the training of high-grade ore, which needs to be tempered, and secondly, the use of materials for each weapon also needs to be calculated, and inexperienced people will fail to refine it very much, so it is not simple to forge a weapon.

"Master Yuan!"

Ye Bai and Tielong Steward came to a stove, and at the stove, a middle-aged man was beating ore.

And when he saw that piece of ore, Ye Bai showed a look of surprise, "Moshi!"

Ink stone, an ore used to forge yellow-level spirit weapons, as long as this ore is added, then it can be hard.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

At this time, the middle-aged man kept hammering, and as he beat it, the piece of ink stone seemed to shrink, and the kung fu visible to the naked eye became smaller little by little.

If the previous ink stone was the size of a head, over time, the stone was only the size of a fist.

"Whew!"

After half a ring, Master Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at the two of them, his face was flat, and he was not surprised by the identities of the two.

"Master Yuan, in the future, this will be Young Master Ye Bai who manages Fang City!"

Iron Dragon Road.

Hearing this, Master Yuan frowned, glanced at Ye Bai, and said in a flat tone: "Got it!"

If ordinary people heard this, they would definitely be unhappy, but Ye Bai was not angry about this, but looked at the ink stone and said, "Master Yuan, don't you continue to refine this piece of ink stone?"
