"My father has always been busy with alchemy and research, and my knowledge of refining weapons and formations was taught to me by Uncle Lu. ”

"Aunt Xiao Xiao taught me alchemy, and she also used a sweet grass to refine jelly beans for me. It's sweeter than regular sugar, and you won't get tooth decay if you eat too much.

As long as I am in a bad mood after an hour, I like to go to Aunt Xiao Xiao to beg for jelly beans. She always has a lot of them, as long as I want, and there is never a shortage.

Oh...... Only once, when I ate a little too much, Aunt Xiao Xiao actually abandoned a furnace of Tsukidan and specially refined jelly beans for me. That time, Aunt Xiao Xiao was trained by my father. ”

"Uncle Li also died in this battle, Uncle Li likes to raise pigeons, and he also boiled pigeon eggs for me......"

While speaking, Zhou Xueyao's shoulders began to twitch, but there were no tears, and a sad and indignant atmosphere echoed in the small carriage.

Great sorrow without tears!

A sneak attack shatters a girl's warm world and shatters her dream life!

The first time I saw her, she was a fairy admired by everyone, a fairy who saved the dead. Treat the wounded on the battlefield in the land of Jinyang. But this time, the country of Jinyang responded like this, and even wanted to take her hostage.

Zhang Hao suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged Zhou Xueyao's weak shoulder: "Cry, if those uncles and aunts have spirits in the sky, they won't want you to be so sad."

But this account, we will definitely find the country of Jinyang to settle it clearly!"

Zhou Xueyao lay in Zhang Hao's arms and cried loudly, and tears soon soaked Zhang Hao's chest.

In the lonely night, the team moved forward silently, only Zhou Xueyao's cry was echoing, spreading in the night, alarming some crows in the distance.

............

The sky gradually brightened, and the team finally stopped slowly and returned to Zhang's house safely. Zhang Hao looked back at the team that was not lacking in anyone, a little fortunate at the same time, but his mood was extremely complicated.

Zhou Xueyao had already fallen asleep in Zhang Hao's arms, and he slept so deeply in a golden pill period, Zhang Hao straightened out Zhou Xueyao's messy hair with some pity, gently hugged the carriage, motioned everyone to be quiet, and carried Zhou Xueyao to the room.

This is the room where Zhou Xueyao stayed last time, and everything in the room has remained the same and has not been touched.

put Zhou Xueyao on the bed, but she grabbed Zhang Hao's sleeve and didn't let go, and there was a look of struggle on her face.

Zhang Hao motioned to the maid to move a chair, sit next to the bed, and sit quietly.

"You get out. Zhang Hao said softly to the maid.

The maid bowed, carefully retreated, and gently closed the door.

Zhou Xueyao curled up on the bed, grabbing Zhang Hao's sleeves with both hands, her eyebrows were frowning, her eyes were red and swollen, and it was distressing to look at.

Zhang Hao sat quietly like this, and it wasn't until noon that Zhou Xueyao gently opened her teary eyes, first looked at the surrounding situation in confusion, suddenly sighed, turned in, pulled up the quilt and covered her head.

"Wake up...... It's okay, it's okay. Zhang Hao comforted softly, slowly pulled down the quilt, and covered Zhou Xueyao. "Are you hungry? I'll have someone prepare something for you?"

"Hmm. Zhou Xueyao was facing inward, and her voice was inaudible.

"I didn't hear what you said. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Louder ......"

"You're deaf!" Zhou Xueyao suddenly broke out, turned around suddenly, glared at Zhang Hao's hateful smiling face, and pursed her red lips angrily.

Looking at Zhou Xueyao, Zhang Hao suddenly had an indescribable impulse in his heart, and slowly lowered his head......

"Go aside!" Zhou Xueyao stretched out her slender jade hand and pulled Zhang Hao's head aside, her eyes a little shy.

"I'll get you something to eat. ”

"Hmm. ”

Waiting for Zhang Hao to leave, Zhou Xueyao's face suddenly turned red, and she covered her head with the quilt again, covering her face with both hands.

As soon as Zhang Hao came to the house, he saw Huang Mingshan standing outside waiting.

"What's the matter?"

"Young Master, what to do with the books you brought back from Xinglin Hall?"

"Oh...... Find a separate yard to put it, it should be more spacious and have a good view. In the future, it will develop into an 'explosives research center'. Prepare carefully, and temporarily study the main force of explosives, I'm afraid it's Zhou Xueyao. ”

"Understood, young master, I'll go and prepare first. ”

"Go ahead. ”

Zhang Hao came to the kitchen, asked the cook to prepare a little light, and brought it to Zhou Xueyao's room;

You're getting too fast. Zhang Hao put down the plate, sat opposite Zhou Xueyao, and watched quietly.

After a while, Zhou Xueyao finally lowered her head, her face flushed, but suddenly she raised her head and glared at her, and said viciously: "Look at it, I'm going to eat!"

"I want to see if you're full. ”

"Get out, if you don't go out, I won't eat. ”

Zhang Hao smiled: "Okay, okay, I'll go out." ”

Before going out, he turned his head to look, but saw Zhou Xueyao looking at him with a pouting mouth, his eyes were 'vicious'.

............

Zhang Hao left Zhou Xueyao and went to his father's side first, at this time Dugu Junjie had already explained everything clearly, and Zhang Shengde's face was very serious.

Seeing Zhang Hao, Zhang Shengde asked directly: "Xiao Hao, what do you think now?"

Zhang Hao said slowly: "Dad, I think that since the country of Jinyang dares to make a move, it must have been planned for a long time. I think that the front line is only afraid that there is already a big war, but the news has not yet come.

And what I'm most worried about is: What if the country of Jinyang doesn't fight alone? I think that if the country of Jinyang dares to make a move, there must be allies. Otherwise, no matter how arrogant the country of Jinyang is, it will not dare to fight against the five countries in one go.

However, the first step of the plan of the country of Jinyang deviated, but it allowed us to grasp some initiative and opportunities. But it's uncertain how long this opportunity will last.

And my idea is to support the war of the country at any cost. ”

Zhang Shengde nodded: "Then what do we provide for the country?"

"For the time being, we can offer more and better Darkiron. Dad, we are ready to fully upgrade all our Xuaniron smelting production lines, and those below 95% purity will all stop production, and concentrate all production capacity to more than 96%. ”

Zhangjia's technology can directly produce more than 96% of the black iron, and those with a purity of less than 95% are 'deliberately added impurities'.

Now facing a national crisis, Zhang Hao is not ready to make these small actions.

Zhang Shengde nodded slowly: "It should be." But in this way, we are on the cusp of the storm!"

Zhang Hao's posture suddenly became a little proud: "Then let the wind and rain come more violently! What we will provide in the future is not only high-purity dark iron, but also ...... Steel!

Perhaps this war will be an opportunity, after this war, Xuantie will withdraw from the stage of history, and steel will be presented in front of the world!

Dad, I'll go find my stepfather first. There are some things I need to discuss with my stepfather. I want to use the steel of the Zhang family to build a real steel army for my father-in-law. ”
