Receiving the long sword handed by Gu Master Guan Hao, Sun Fangyuan and Qian Gang were silent, only taking a closer look at the long sword.

After a long time, Sun Fangyuan slowly spoke: "The heirs of the sixth realm of this sect are basically only receiving customized armor now. ”

"yes. Gu Master Guan Hao nodded slowly.

Qian Gang said in a deep voice: "Among them, we must borrow our breath iron." ”

"Xifeng Iron is the key, yes, but the craftsmanship of Chang'an refining is indeed good. ”

Sun Fangyuan was silent for a moment, and then said: "We underestimated Chang'an before, thinking that their refining foundation was the Eastern Tang Tianfeng Mountain, so we should not be afraid, but now it seems that there are masters in Chang'an. ”

Qian Gang said: "At present, they are not enough to pose a threat to their business, but ......"

He didn't continue, but both Guan Hao and Sun Fangyuan knew what he meant by what he said.

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, Chang'an City's weapons business is getting bigger and bigger.

"The Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty are both blocking Chang'an, and it should be difficult for them to sit down. Sun Fangyuan said.

Gu Master Guan Hao pondered for a long time: "Let's observe first." ”

Sun Fangyuan and Qian Gang both nodded together.

Having said that, the three masters of Ice and Fire Valley looked at the sword and the two swords at the moment, and their expressions were solemn.

To add insult to injury, worse news soon followed.

The weapons and armor produced in Chang'an City are better than before.

It's not just about quality, it's about quantity.

A large number of Chang'an blades began to become popular in the market.

And, the price is lower than in the Valley of Ice and Fire!

The Valley of Ice and Fire was in the market of the Western Zhou Dynasty and was soon replaced by Chang'an City.

The Eastern Tang Dynasty had a strict blockade, but it couldn't stand some people from taking risks.

Although it is forbidden to Chang'an on the plane, the black market has long been flooded.

What made the Valley of Ice and Fire even more unbearable was that although the Northern Qi Dynasty blockaded Chang'an, it was not strict enough, so a large number of Chang'an blades secretly poured in, fiercely seizing the basic plate of the Valley of Ice and Fire.

"How can they do that!" Qian Gang was furious.

"Selling it so cheaply, does it hurt people?" Sun Fangyuan also frowned.

The two went to the residence of Gu Master Guan Hao again.

But this time, Guan Hao's disciple motioned for the two to wait.

They waited for a long time before they saw the valley lord slowly come out.

And this time, Guan Hao was holding a broken knife in his hand.

He cut the broken knife in two and put it in the hands of Sun Fangyuan and Qian Gang.

The two looked at each other, and one took a section and looked at it carefully, and the more they looked at it, the more serious their expressions became.

"There are no more than five people in this sect who can forge this sword, including the old decay. Gu Master Guan Hao said slowly.

Sun Fangyuan and Qian Gang's faces were ugly.

There are five people in the house that Guan Hao said, and now there are three in the house.

In fact, it means that at the level of the Valley of Ice and Fire, forging such a treasure sword requires at least the cultivation of the seventh realm.

The valley includes Qian Gang, and there are a total of three Seventh Realm martial artists.

Coupled with Sun Fangyuan of the Eighth Realm and Gu Master Guan Hao himself of the Ninth Realm, it is all together.

The five of them can make such a great work.

But they have long only received orders from special people.

But the broken knife in front of them was mass-produced in Chang'an!

It has been circulated outside, and it has been a lot, not counting the number of people in Chang'an City for their own use.

"Senior brother, please have an idea. Qian Gang said in a deep voice.

Guan Hao did not speak, and fell silent for a long time.

Sun Fangyuan played with the broken knife in his hand and said: "In any case, say hello to the royal family first, at least we can't let the Chang'an blade circulate on the ground of Northern Qi in such a large amount, otherwise we will all have to drink the northwest wind." ”

"Please ask Senior Brother Sun to go to the capital and discuss this matter with the royal family. ”

Gu Master Guan Hao said: "In the future, you can give a little profit to the royal family." ”

"Do they have the face to negotiate the price? Gao Tiankai's own two sons are still trapped in Chang'an City. Sun Fangyuan said hatefully.

"In short, they have to move. Guan Hao said to Qian Gang again: "Senior Brother Qian also talked to the people in Chang'an City, so hurting people is not good for everyone." ”

Qian Gang nodded: "I understand." ”

The two-pronged approach of the Valley of Ice and Fire has yielded results.

On the one hand, Shang Jie said that although Chang'an's sales have increased, it will not continue to reduce prices.

On the other side, the Northern Qi royal family made a move and gradually strengthened the blockade of Chang'an.

In the direction of Northern Qi, the blockade of Chang'an in all aspects suddenly increased.

In fact, under the original blockade, the reason why there are still many exchanges between Chang'an and Northern Qi is rooted in the Ice and Fire Valley itself.

The southwest area of Northern Qi, bordering Chang'an, is the inherent sphere of influence of the Valley of Ice and Fire.

The previous blockade ban of the Northern Qi royal family in the Valley of Ice and Fire violated the yang and yin, but it fought with Chang'an.

Now, they began to secretly cooperate with the blockade of the Northern Qi royal family.

Of course, they didn't completely tear their faces with Chang'an.

Xifeng Iron was still sold to Chang'an, in order to get the resources they wanted with Chang'an.

In dealing with Chang'an, they also kept complaining, saying how great the pressure on them was from the Northern Qi royal family.

They overcame many difficulties before they insisted on continuing to associate with Chang'an.

In the direction of Northern Qi, the difficulty of trade has increased, and the export sales of Chang'an Ordnance Factory have declined.

Zhang Dongyun's instructions for this are:

Intensify efforts.

He incarnated as Mr. Wuyun and instructed Chen Yu, Huang Xi and others to further improve the level of craftsmanship.

As a result, Chang'an Ordnance Factory refining weapons, the level was further improved, and the cost was further reduced.

Not to mention completely stabilizing the market on the side of the Western Zhou Dynasty, it began to gradually regain the market share on both sides of the Northern Qi and Eastern Tang Dynasty.

The ban is really huge.

But Ice and Fire Valley soon vomited three liters of blood, and found that the price of Chang'an's armor sold on the Eastern Tang Black Market was actually cheaper than its own fair sales.

Even in the territory of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the black market began to circulate the armor produced in Chang'an.

"For the divine weapons used by the middle cultivators, do they sell them as kitchen knives and farm tools?" Qian Gang was unbelievable.

Sun Fangyuan's face was also full of disbelief.

This time, without waiting for them to go to the valley lord Guan Hao, Guan Hao directly called all the high-level officials of the Ice and Fire Valley to hold a meeting together.

There was only one agenda item for the meeting.

Cut off the Xifeng Iron that supplies Chang'an City!

When the news came back to Chang'an, Zhang Dongyun was very calm.

"Salute first, then soldier. ”

Mr. Wuyun, who was projected by him, looked at Shang Jie, who was in charge of liaison in front of him: "It just so happens that we didn't plan to continue to reduce the price." ”

"Yes, sir. Shang Jie retired, then left Chang'an City and set off for Northern Qi.

She came to the Mountain Gate of the Valley of Ice and Fire again.

Qian Gang was in charge of receiving her.

"After a few days, Elder Shang's cultivation realm seems to have improved?"

Qian Gang was slightly surprised.

The last time I saw Shang Jie, the other party should still be the sixth realm of martial arts, but now he is a seventh realm person like him.

Mr. Wuyun mentioned it, and he made a slight inch, which made Brother Qian smile. Shang Jie said.

Mr. Wuyun of Dahe Longmen taught the Hanhai Heart Method, and the whole faction benefited greatly.

As a result, Shang Jie was promoted from the sixth realm to the seventh realm.

It's just that she is now busy with the internal affairs of Chang'an, and rarely goes into battle to kill the enemy in person, and she is relatively thin with a murderous aura.

"Xifeng Iron has come in and produced less, and the door is also anxious. ”

Qian Gang said: "As a last resort, this time the Xifeng Iron transported to Chang'an had to be interrupted first, I'm really sorry." ”

Shang Jie nodded: "We have always been lucky every ten days, so I wonder if we can restore the supply after another ten days?"

"This, it's really hard to say, it depends on the specific production situation. Qian Gang said: "This door is actually reducing production, and we need to save some money." ”

The Valley of Ice and Fire has indeed reduced production recently.

But it was not because of the lack of iron, but because Chang'an City had embezzled a large market share, so that many armors were backlogged at home and could not be sold, so they had to reduce production first.

When Chang'an cuts off production, they will release a large amount of inventory to regain the market, and then resume the scale of production.

Shang Jie knew this very well.

She even knew that the Ice and Fire Valley Beacon Iron Ore was no problem at all.

However, she didn't break it in person, but said: "Recently, there have been wars in many places, and the consumption of armor is fierce, so it is a good time for you and me to join hands." ”

"yes, yes. Qian Gang haha: "It's a pity, it's a pity." ”

Shang Jie continued: "Regarding the price issue, my Chang'an price has stabilized, and it should not drop again, I am sure of this. ”

Nonsense!

It's already so low!

Qian Gang scolded in his heart.

"So, dare to ask Elder Shang......" Qian Gang asked, "Will it improve?"

Shang Jie remembered Mr. Wuyun's explanation, so she shook her head: "As far as I know, it shouldn't be in a short time." ”

Qian Gang nodded: "Thank you Elder Shang for your confession, since this is the case, the old man also opened the skylight and said something bright."

Xifeng Iron has indeed produced limited production recently, and if Chang'an is really in urgent need, it is not without room for negotiation.

This door can take out a part of its own needs and give priority to Chang'an.

However, in terms of price, it is natural that it will change. ”

Shang Jie smiled when she heard this: "I am very grateful for Brother Qian's confession, but with all due respect, the price we gave at the beginning was extremely fair."

A few days ago, you raised your home once, but it was just a business, so we agreed.

This price is very generous, even high.

If Brother Qian wants to rise again this time, it will be too unfair. ”

Qian Gang said lightly: "That door is really helpless, after all, the whole faction, just the direct subordinates, thousands of mouths waiting for dinner, the old man has to help the valley master calculate the economic accounts." ”

Shang Jie said: "Your faction and the Northern Qi royal family have always had a gap, and we and your faction can have more cooperation in other aspects." ”

"It doesn't have to be. Qian Gang said: "After all, you are in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and we are in the Northern Qi Dynasty." ”

The two of them were talking in the front room, and three people were sitting quietly in the back room.

The Backroom can hear the Frontroom, but conversely, the people in the Frontroom can't hear the people on this side.

In addition to the Ice and Fire Valley Valley's chief official Hao and Elder Sun Fangyuan, there was also a man dressed in bright yellow clothes.

This person has a handsome and majestic face, and he is somewhat similar to Gao Tiankai, the king of Qi.

"Hasn't the valley lord made up his mind yet?" the middle-aged man smiled and said, "It's just right to take down this woman." ”
