In the "Thousand Forging" weapons workshop, Fei Zhong and the man who was quite similar to You Hun in size and appearance, but who were a few years older, were laughing and talking.

Fei Zhong said with a smile: "Brother You Hao, when the first repeater is made, I will immediately take it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I believe His Highness will be very happy." With this time, His Highness will continue to put pressure on the Ordnance Superintendent, and gradually transfer all the business of ordnance customization to the 'Thousand Forgings', completely cutting off the financial route of the 'Lianfeng'!"

You Hao took out a bulging brocade bag from his sleeve, presented it to Fei Zhong with both hands, and said with a smile: "This time I can get the opportunity to serve His Royal Highness the Prince, and I will be able to do it all thanks to Brother Fei." Here are some clay rituals brought by the younger brother from the south, although they are a little shabby, but they are a piece of sincere gratitude from the younger brother. I also hope that Brother Fei will appreciate the light. ”

"Why do you have to see the outside like this, brother. Fei Zhong said kind words in his mouth, but his hand had already stretched out to take the brocade bag, and he loosened the mouth of the bag seemingly casually and glanced at it, and saw that it was filled with round pearls the size of a dragon's eye, and the smile on his face was even stronger, and he said, "When Brother Ling Youhun was by His Royal Highness's side, he was very effective in handling things, and he was deeply relied on by His Highness." It's a pity that later...... Afterwards, His Royal Highness sighed for a long time, and he often said that there was no Brother Ling on weekdays, and many things were not done satisfactorily. The foolish brother sees that the old brother's talent is better than that of the younger brother, I wonder if he is interested in doing things by His Royal Highness's side?"

You Hao made a look of surprise and panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Fei can look at the little brother?"

Fei Zhong slapped his palms and smiled: "As long as you are willing, brother, I will mention this matter when I go down to see His Highness." It's not that the foolish brother boasts, the words of the foolish brother, His Royal Highness can still listen to some of them. ”

You Hao hurriedly thanked him: "Don't thank you for your kindness, if it can be done, the little brother will naturally have another mind." ”

Fei Zhong hurriedly stepped forward to help You Hao up, and the two laughed hand in hand.

At this time, a person outside the door walked in with a brand-new repeater in his hand, and saluted You Hao with a happy face: "Owner, the first repeater has been ready!"

You Hao and Fei Zhong were overjoyed at the same time, and rushed forward together, seeing the repeater that looked exactly the same as the one made by the "Lianfeng", and their faces showed excitement.

Although Fei Zhong is greedy, he has always been rigorous in his work, otherwise he would not be trusted by Yin. He asked the man who had brought him the repeater, "Have you tried it after it was made?"

The man replied respectfully, "Lord Fei, I have already tried it just now, and it is by no means half a point inferior to what the 'Refining Edge' made!"

Fei Zhong nodded with satisfaction, but for the sake of safety, he still ordered: "In that case, you can re-demonstrate it in front of me." ”

The man turned his head to look at You Hao first, and when he saw You Hao nodding slightly, he said, "Please move your feet with the lord and the proprietor a little and follow the villain to the courtyard." ”

The three of them arrived in the courtyard together, and the man took a few steps, leveled the repeater, aimed the arrow hole at a courtyard wall more than forty paces away, and pulled the mechanism at the handle of the repeater with the index finger of his right hand.

A reed explosion came out of the crossbow box, and ten short arrows of iron feathers were shot out of the ten arrow holes in front of it, which flew more than forty paces away with astonishing height and strength, and nailed deep into the wall.

"Okay! Go on!" Fei Zhong smiled from ear to ear.

The man shook the bronze crank on the side of the crossbow box, and fired three rounds of crossbow arrows in succession, and when he rotated the crank again to press the machine spring, there was a sudden "click" sound in the crossbow box, and then the crank was stuck and spun still.

You Hao saw that his subordinates were holding the crossbow for a long time, and cold sweat gradually oozed from his head, and he felt bad in his heart, and stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"

The man replied with a bitter face, "The proprietor, this repeater seems to be out of order?"

"What's the fault?" Fei Zhong also walked over, his face was a little ugly, "After the 'Lianfeng's repeater was built, I have never heard of any problems!"

The man was a little panicked, and hurriedly said: "Master Fei, don't worry, wait for the villain to open the crossbow box and check it." ”

You Hao reprimanded: "Then don't hurry up!"

The man hurriedly pressed the four dark tenons on the edge of the crossbow box, lifted the upward side of the crossbow box, looked down inside, and exclaimed, "How so?"

Hearing this exclamation, Fei Zhong and You Hao's hearts sank, and when they stepped forward to look, they saw that most of the spring originally installed in the copper pipe had been broken.

"This ...... What's going on?" You Hao stammered.

In order to shirk his responsibility, his subordinate turned his mind and said: "Proprietor, there is no problem with the rest of the crossbow, only the condition of the machine spring, is it the craftsman who knew how to forge machine springs from the 'Lian Feng'......"

You Hao's small eyes shot out an incomparably vicious light, and he said coldly: "You immediately bring someone to bring those craftsmen who are responsible for forging machine springs!"

The man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went down to find someone, leaving Fei Zhong and You Hao here staring wide-eyed.

"Brother Fei, this matter ......," You Hao said tentatively.

Fei Zhong waved his hand to stop his words, and his face and tone changed subtly: "You Dongzhu, this official has something to say in front. These repeaters and thunderbolt crossbows are to be assigned to the four centaurs of Shenwei, Shenwu, Longxiang, and Tiger Wing. In order to let the Ordnance Superintendent transfer this business to you 'Thousand Forging Workshop', His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a lot to do. If you break this matter yourself, and you can't deliver the goods as promised, the first person who can't spare you is Your Highness! This official still has some things to deal with, so take his leave!"

"Brother Fei, Master Fei, ...... Fei" You Hao called a few times behind him, and when he saw Fei Zhong going out without looking back, he couldn't help but look at his back angrily and smacked hard, and scolded in a low voice, "This villain, how can he turn his face so ruthlessly!"

After a while, several of You Hao's subordinates semi-forcibly brought over several craftsmen with frightened looks on their faces.

You Hao glanced at several people coldly, pointed to the repeater that was still on the ground, and said: "I will not hesitate to invite you from the 'Lian Feng', and I will treat you well. But you don't seem to appreciate it, and you take my gold and silver, but you do things perfunctorily, and want to trap my 'Thousand Forge Workshop' in a Jedi!"

When several craftsmen heard that his words were too serious, they all fell to their knees in panic and shouted that they were wronged, and one of them distinguished: "The proprietor, this matter is really no wonder to the villains. The villains dared to use their lives as a guarantee, and they definitely used a lot of effort when forging the machine spring, and the reason for this situation was really because of the problem with the materials provided by the proprietor. ”

"What nonsense!" You Hao scolded angrily, "You say that this spring needs the best toughness and elasticity, and this proprietor will provide you with the finest steel, so what can be the problem!"

The craftsman said: "The proprietor doesn't know that when we forge the machine spring on the 'Lianfeng', we use a very special metal. When the proprietor provided us with steel, we felt that something was wrong, but we thought that the toughness and elasticity of the steel were also good, so we tried to use it. Who knew that the strength of this spring was too strong, and after only a few repeated uses, these steel springs broke apart. ”

You Hao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What kind of metal did you use when you were refining the Blade?"

The craftsman shook his head and said, "This metal is the most important secret of the 'Refining Edge', how can the villains know?"

You Hao was deflated all of a sudden, and said dejectedly: "In this way, if there is no metal to make machine springs, the repeater we make will be just a pile of waste? If we can't deliver the goods on time, I'm afraid that all the heads of our 'Thousand Forging Workshop' will fall to the ground!"

"Proprietor, the villain has a way. One of his men hesitated.

You Hao seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and asked eagerly: "Is there any way, come quickly! If it really works, I will definitely be rewarded!"

The man slurred and said, "The villain heard a news on the street a few days ago. Although the business has been robbed by us, it seems that the 'Refining Edge' has not stopped making repeaters and Thunderbolt crossbows these days, and it should have a fair amount of stock now......"
