Chapter 15: The Last Chance
Wen Tao didn't seem to be in a big deal, but his cheeks were a little red and swollen, which was the mark of Lin Yang's hammer after he taught him to be a man, but today is not the time to talk about this, everyone didn't expect Wen Dingtian to return with the people of the Ouyang family this time.
The luxurious team represents the style of the two most prosperous families in Yuncheng, the sedan chair that Wen Dingtian and Ouyang Gong, the head of the Ouyang family, rides, every inch is finely carved and worth 10,000 gold, especially Ouyang Gong's sedan chair, it is said that the outer curtain alone is woven with the silk of [Ice Cloud Snow Silkworm], warm in winter and cool in summer, at least worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
"Hey, isn't that Ouyang Feng, why is he here too?"
Wen Jun's sharp eyes found that there was also a handsome young man riding a snowflake lion in the team, who was none other than the peerless son of Cloud City, Ouyang Feng.
As soon as he saw this Ouyang Feng, Wen Tao's gaze suddenly dimmed a little, which could make this proud young man feel ashamed, just because Ouyang Feng had a title that he had pursued for many years but could not achieve - the Four Little Dragons of Cloud City.
Only the four strongest teenagers under the age of eighteen in Cloud City can be called the Four Little Dragons of Cloud City, Wen Tao's martial arts combat power is already a rare opponent in the entire Cloud City, but he himself knows that there is still a huge gap that is difficult to cross compared to the weak son who is personable on horseback.
As for Wen Qingqing, her face changed suddenly after seeing Ouyang Feng.
Could it be that this Ouyang family came today for their marriage contract with Ouyang Feng?
This matter has always been a pain in Wen Qingqing's heart that she does not want to mention, she and Ouyang Feng have known each other since childhood, and the two families have made a so-called marriage contract like a verbal joke before, but when she grows up, she does not want to marry the young master of the Ouyang family at all, and that marriage contract has been delayed until today......
Why did this annoying Ouyang Jiaxuan come over today? Wouldn't it be possible for Lin Yi to run into them......
An ominous premonition rose in Wen Qingqing's heart.
She didn't know what kind of storm Lin Yi's return and Ouyang's visit would stir up in the Wen Mansion today?
Soon, the team walked to the door of Wenfu, and the two bigwigs who were important in the people of Yuncheng walked out of their respective sedan chairs.
Wen Dingtian's figure is not high, but he is extremely strong, his eyebrows and eyes are not big, but he has a sharp edge that is difficult to look at, the most memorable thing is his thick joints, covered with wind and frost palms, these hands, refining the most famous spiritual weapon in the entire Cloud City, but also smashed the head of the most powerful enemy.
When Wen Dingtian stepped off the sedan chair, all the people below the innate realm felt a tightness in their chests, it was a kind of momentum brought by an absolute master, as if there was a towering giant ding, pressed on the chest, it was difficult to breathe, especially at this moment Wen Dingtian's brows were slightly wrinkled, it seemed that the mood was not beautiful, which made everyone feel even more depressed.
Next to him is the patriarch of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Gong.
This is a middle-aged man with a round body, and his smiling appearance gives people a very cordial feeling at first glance, but many people present know that under this kind outside, this Ouyang Gong has what a treacherous and ruthless businessman's heart.
"See the Patriarch!"
"Meet Mr. Ouyang!"
In front of the Wen Mansion, a cry of worship sounded, Wen Dingtian looked at the familiar door and his children, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart, and suddenly saw that his two sons were injured on their faces, and couldn't help frowning.
"Wen Zhong, everything is fine at home. He asked an old housekeeper in the Wen Mansion, this old man has followed Wen Dingtian for many years, has a loyal personality, and can take care of the affairs of the Wen Mansion properly, but he can't control the temperament of a few young masters and young ladies.
"Ahem...... Everything is fine, please enter the mansion of the patriarch!" Wen Zhong's eyes met with Wen Dingtian, knowing that this occasion was solemn, he didn't reveal anything, and beckoned everyone to welcome Wen Dingtian and Ouyang Gong into the Wen mansion.
"Okay, Brother Ouyang, please!" Wen Dingtian raised his hand, smiling stiffly, and invited Ouyang Gong in.
"Hehe, okay. Ouyang Gong smiled like a Maitreya Bodhisattva, but he couldn't hide the greedy light in his eyes, he turned to his son Ouyang Feng next to him: "Feng'er, I will discuss important matters with your Uncle Wen for my father, and you will be close to the two young masters of the Wen family, maybe you will be a family in the future, haha!"
"Yes! Ouyang Feng nodded yes, with a personable demeanor.
As soon as this sentence came out, many people present understood what kind of drama it was today, and the Ouyang family came to propose.
There was no expression on everyone's faces, only the eyes with different expressions swept towards Wen Qingqing, and the Wen family's eyes were slightly red, biting her lip and no longer speaking, but anyone could feel the grievance and unwillingness in her heart.
............
Soon the group walked into the Wen Mansion, and Wen Dingtian summoned his two most trusted Keqing elders to enter the Wen family's reception room along with Ouyang Gong, a spacious mansion called Lingyun Pavilion.
The rest of the people went their separate ways under Wen Zhong's arrangement, but everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to the closed door of Lingyun Pavilion, just afraid that there would be an unimaginable turmoil in this room today.
About an hour later.
In the Lingyun Pavilion, Tang Hong, one of the two elders of the Wen family, slapped the list of dowry gifts submitted by Ouyang Gong on the table, and an old face was full of indignant expression:
"Patriarch Ouyang, what are you kidding! If you are married, you will be married, and if you are hired, you will be hired, what do you mean when you just said that you want to send people to settle in my Wen clan's thirteen refining workshops in Cloud City?"
"Hehe......" Ouyang Gong seemed to have expected that the other side would be furious, smiled and picked up the tea on the table, took a sip unhurriedly, and said: "Isn't the meaning clear? The Ouyang family and the Wen family are married, so naturally they have to help their father-in-law share some burdens and chores." ”
Tang Hong smiled coldly: "That's a good thing, then it's good for our Wen family to send someone into all the alchemy workshops of your Ouyang family in Cloud City?"
Ouyang Gong glanced at Tang Hong coldly, no longer answered, but turned to look at Wen Dingtian with a gloomy face: "What, Brother Wen?
"You!" Tang Hong was so angry that his beard turned up.
This Ouyang Gong is simply too deceitful.
Knowing that the Wen family was in trouble in the palace and the internal affairs office this time, he fell into the well at this time, saying that he wanted to marry his son, and it was clear that he was here to take advantage of the fire to rob and plunder the Wen family's property in Cloud City.
It's shameless!
"Elder Tang, don't be impatient. Wen Dingtian finally spoke, he comforted Tang Hong, and looked at Ouyang Gong calmly: "Brother Ouyang, Wen has learned about your hospitality, but the young man Ji is still young, and we can discuss this matter in the long run." ”
"Hehe, I know that Brother Wen is only afraid that he will not be able to make up his mind for a while. Ouyang Gong smiled like a fox with his tail exposed, took out another list from his arms, and handed it over: "It's just that if I add these things, I don't know if I can help Brother Wen make up your mind." ”
Wen Dingtian's eyes froze, and he didn't stretch out his hand, but let Tang Hong next to him take the list and take a look, and the face of this innate master suddenly changed.
"Primordial Spirit Crystal...... A ton!"
The first item on the list made Tang Hong's breathing a little short.
This primordial spirit crystal is an important material that everyone knows in the refining world, and it has a role that cannot be replaced by any other material, that is, to stimulate the [Instrument Spirit Attribute] of a spiritual weapon.
The reason why spiritual weapons are scarce is because the production of primordial spirit crystals in Izumo Country is too scarce every year, and each catty of primordial spirit crystals is worth 10,000 taels of silver, and now this ton of primordial spirit crystals is equivalent to 20 million taels of silver - even for the Wen family, it is a huge wealth.
"Hehe, look down. Ouyang Gongcheng smiled in his chest.
He knew the current situation of the Wen family, and he had absolute confidence in the conditions he offered, and the Wen family had no way to disaccept his conditions at this time.
"White jade, 5 tons, Eight Treasures Crystal, 3 tons, 15 tons of marble mother, 15 tons ......"
Tang Hong's forehead already had beads of sweat slightly, this long list was full of valuable refining materials, each of which was calculated in tons, its value was amazing, not to mention, the key was the main refining material that the Wen clan urgently needed, and it definitely had a strong attraction.
And also!
Tang Hong's eyes widened all of a sudden when he saw the end.
"A hundred copies of the blueprints of the low-level spiritual artifact...... Ten copies of the blueprint of the intermediate spiritual artifact...... Also, three blueprints of high-level spiritual weapons!"
Especially the last sentence, the design drawings of the three high-level spirit weapons made Wen Dingtian's eyes widen in disbelief.
"Hehe, Brother Wen. I know that there is still half a year to go before the [Spirit Soldier Treasure Appraisal] Conference will be held, and if your Wen family can't get a decent spiritual weapon, then you will be defeated by the Chen family's refiner. I remember your promise in front of the Lord of the Internal Affairs Mansion - if you lose to the Chen family, you will give up half of the refining market share to the Chen family, and the official procurement channels of the royal family will also be occupied by the Chen family...... In this competition, you Wen family can't afford to lose...... And these three high-level spiritual weapon design drawings, as long as you take the time to study carefully, plus the batch of materials I gave you, you will definitely be able to come up with a brand-new high-level spiritual weapon and defeat the Chen family at that time, do you still hesitate to do such a good thing?"
Ouyang Gong looked at Wen Dingtian's face and continued to exert pressure:
"My Ouyang family has been alchemy for generations, originally this matter has nothing to do with me, if it weren't for the fact that my family Feng'er has a soft spot for Miss Qingqing, I wouldn't have spent so much effort collecting these drawings and materials, but ......"
Ouyang Gong said this, his eyes suddenly flashed fiercely: "If such sincerity is rejected, then I will be sad, Chen Yuesheng of the Chen family has a good relationship with me, maybe I will sell this batch of things to the Chen family when I get there, I believe Chen Yuesheng is very interested in buying it......"
"Ouyang Gong, you threaten us!!" Tang Hong next to him was furious.
"It's a negotiation, not a threat...... Ouyang Gong settled on the Wen family: "The design drawings of all the high-level spiritual weapons in Izumo have been mastered by the three of us, even if Brother Wen is willing to buy them in other countries at a large price, it will take at least a few months to go back and forth, and then you will have to prepare materials and keep experimenting, it is impossible to ...... The condition I give today is your Wen family's last chance!"
