Chapter 21: Fatal Mistake!
Hearing Zhao He's words, Wei Zhongzheng, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help but look surprised.
It is very common for people in the Casting Association to give some gifts and hand them over in advance when they meet talented Soldier Casting Cadets.
So he wasn't too surprised to learn that Zhao He was a steward of the Casting Association and had come to give gifts to his grandson.
But......
That's a bit of a lot.
Much more than he could have imagined.
Originally, in Wei Zhongzheng's expectation, Zhao He would give Wei Ran some good materials for casting troops at most, or send 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, and it would be about the same.
Who knows, he actually gave 100,000 yuan, as well as three fine-grade Xuan soldiers.
Looking at the quality of the excellent Xuanbing he took out, the market price is about 30,000 yuan.
In other words, Zhao He came over this time and directly sent 200,000 to Wei Ran!
Two hundred thousand, which is not a small number.
I can buy a pretty big house.
You can also buy a good rare-level Xuan Bing.
Although he held a celebration banquet for him in advance after Wei Ran's literary examination ended yesterday, it cost him about 100,000 yuan.
But firstly, he has a better face, and secondly, he also wants to meet more people through this, so as to pave the way for Wei Ran and open up relations with the Wei family.
That's why he was willing to spend so much money.
But that doesn't mean that 100,000 dollars is a small amount.
It wasn't just Wei Zhongzheng who was surprised by this.
Wei Ran is the same.
"Huh?"
When Wei Ran heard this, he carefully recalled what Zhao He had just said.
Become a member of their Forge Guild as soon as possible......
and when they first met, they said that they learned that he had designed a rare Xuanbing......
Wei Ran's eyes flashed with a different color, and then he looked at Zhao He carefully.
Suddenly, a memory that was not too clear emerged.
This grandfather and grandson, he seems to have seen it yesterday when he went to the Casting Association to buy materials for casting soldiers.
I think I saw it when I went to the Forge Room......
Wei Ran's heart sank, and he vaguely guessed something.
So, he stretched out his hand to take the gift handed by Zhao He, and said, "Thank you uncle for the gift, is your uncle a member of the Casting Association?" ”
"Hmm." Zhao He nodded, and said with a satisfied smile: "I am the manager of the Casting Area, if you want to come to the Casting Association, just come to me, don't be afraid of trouble, I can directly leave you a casting room, and you don't have to wait in line to ......"
"Thank you so much, uncle......"
Hearing Zhao He's answer, Wei Ran's face remained unchanged, but he knew completely in his heart that his guess was correct.
The old man in front of him really entered the armor casting room he used last night, and then found out that he had cast a rare Xuan soldier......
Regarding the fact that he could cast a rare Xuan Soldier, Wei Ran actually didn't care about being known by others.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have directly taken out the design drawings of the resurrection armor in the exam.
And his parents also knew last night that he had sketched a rare Xuanbing blueprint.
The reason why I didn't tell my classmates and teachers today is purely because I think it takes a lot of trouble to talk about, so I said that I bought it.
And although he doesn't mind being known about it, it doesn't mean that he likes to be spied on by others!
After all, this kind of involves the secrets of the arsenal of divine weapons!
However, although he was unhappy in his heart, Wei Ran did not turn his face on the spot.
He smiled and said, "By the way, uncle, how did you know that I made the design of the rare Xuanbing?" I'm hiding this from my parents and grandfather......"
When asked, he looked embarrassed and a little innocent.
It seems that he wanted to hide a surprise, but it was accidentally exposed.
Seeing this, Zhao He knew that his guess was indeed correct.
That autumn leaf knife is the design drawing of Wei Ran's paper in the literary examination.
So, he also replied with a casual smile: "I have a friend who is an examiner, and I asked him, so I know ......"
Of course, this is false.
He had a friend who was working as an invigilator, but absolutely no one dared to reveal the news at this time.
It's just that, according to Zhao He's thoughts, since Wei Ran went to the casting room to try to cast a Xuan Bing after the literary examination, it was still a rare Xuan Bing, it must be the design drawings he handed in during the literary examination.
It's impossible that the martial arts exam is only five days, and there are still people who have the leisure to cast irrelevant Xuan soldiers, right?
Even if Wei Ran was talented enough to make two rare Xuanbing blueprints, instead of handing in the Autumn Leaf Knife, then it would be impossible for him to cast the Autumn Leaf Knife at this time, right?
How should I cast the Xuan Bing that should be cast during the martial arts examination, so that I am more sure that it will be cast on that day!
Years of experience have made Zhao He fall into a misunderstanding.
It is also Wei Ran, a person who does not play according to the routine, which is indeed too rare.
As a result, the words he said in front of Wei Ran were full of clumsy lies.
Explaining with a smile, Zhao He said to Wei Ran: "The martial arts exam will be taken in a few days, you have to come to our Casting Association often these days to try to cast soldiers, uncle will help you leave a casting room, by the way, if you are free, you can also communicate with my grandson, it just so happens that his exam questions are also knives......
Hearing Zhao He's words, Wei Ran smiled faintly and explained: "Uncle, my exam question is not a knife, it's armor, and I was just playing with the knife last night......"
Suddenly, a fine cold sweat broke out on Zhao He's forehead.
He knew he was mistaken!
didn't really find out the truth of the matter, so he rashly came to Wei Ran, wanting to befriend him in advance, but instead gave him insight into his despicable methods!
A fatal mistake was made.
Now, if Wei Ran goes to the Forge Soldiers Association to report him!
Even if he doesn't lose his position in charge, I'm afraid he will have to take off a layer of skin!
"Ah......h
"That's ......"
Zhao He was flustered and stammered a little: "That maybe...... Uncle misheard, I'm so sorry......"
"Well, it's okay......" Wei Ran said expressionlessly.
Zhao Heru sat on pins and needles, said a few more words, and finally couldn't sit down, got up and said goodbye to leave.
"Why do you leave so quickly? Don't sit down a little longer? I've been a classmate for many years, and I'd like to have a few bottles with you tonight......"
Seeing that Zhao He was leaving, Wei Zhongzheng was surprised and hurriedly stayed.
This is from the bottom of my heart.
Not to mention the relationship between the two classmates, Zhao He just sent such a large sum of money to his grandson, should he leave someone for dinner, right?
"No, no, I still have something to deal with......"
Zhao He hurriedly refused, his face pale.
"Okay." Seeing this, Wei Zhongzheng said helplessly: "Xiao Ran, you go and send your uncle and Xiao Cheng......"
"Hmm." Wei Ran agreed with a smile.
After the three of them walked out of the Wei family's old mansion for a while.
Zhao He's face looked at Wei Ran a little unnaturally, and said, "Xiao Ran, you don't have to send it, we can just go back by ourselves." ”
"Hmm."
Wei Ran responded lightly and said, "Don't you have anything else to say?" ”
Zhao He knew that after Wei Ran said that his exam question was armor, what he did was not hidden from Wei Ran.
He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry, I ...... I was confused for a while, and I promise there will be no next time......"
"I'll take the money, so be it......"
Wei Ran turned around and walked towards the Wei family's old mansion.
