Monarch of Evernight: What’s the difference at twenty
bsp;Ji Rui took a deep look at Qianye, shook his head and said, "I really don't know where the general's confidence comes from."
Qianye still said the same thing, "The city owner will know if he tries it."
Ji Rui's eyes changed, but he couldn't make up his mind to give it a try. This test will not only test Qianye's last resort, but also add a powerful enemy out of thin air. Qianye has just shown that he can escape from his hands. Once Qianye escapes, who else in Nan Qingcheng will be Qianye's opponent besides himself?
At that time, the situation was exactly as Qianye said, and the business in Nan Qingcheng would never be done again. If the Spider Emperor and Wolf King are invited to take action, it is possible to capture Qianye. The problem is that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away. Once these two people reach into Nanqing City, it will be difficult to say whether the city will have a surname of Ji or not.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Rui made up his mind and stepped out, kicking the courtyard door away.
The yard is not big, but it is quiet, elegant and unique. As soon as you enter the courtyard, the slightly humid warm breeze blows in your face, making you very comfortable. It turns out that this small courtyard is equipped with a Force array that can regulate the climate, which shows how favored Mrs. He is.
The small courtyard is divided into two front and back entrances. Beyond the middle corridor, there is a small patio in the backyard, and then there is the main house. There are four side rooms on both sides, where the maids live.
For such a small courtyard, Qianye can control it with just one sweep of his senses. Except for a woman and two maids in the main room, there was no trace of Gao Hu people in the courtyard, and Honglian was not here either.
In fact, this result was also expected by Qianye. The fight between him and Ji Rui made such a big fuss that even a corner of the city lord's palace was destroyed. Honglian would be hopelessly stupid if he didn't escape.
The conditions just mentioned are nothing more than giving Ji Rui a step down. I believe that after this confrontation, Ji Rui will no longer dare to play tricks behind his back. Of course, with Ji Rui's treacherous streak, if he attacks again next time, he must be fully prepared before taking action.
However, Qianye was not afraid. Ji Rui could not have expected the speed of Qianye's cultivation. One year is enough for Qianye to level up two more levels in the Dawn Force. With the force of dawn as a check and balance, the side of Yongye can be steadily promoted to the rank of Marquis. If he fights Ji Rui again at that time, even if he doesn't use the original spear and the Zhiji King's legacy, Ji Rui will not be able to escape defeat.
Mrs. He naturally heard the movement at the courtyard door and walked in and out to investigate. When she saw Qianye, she was startled at first, and then she gritted her teeth, with an angry look on her face, and almost wanted to pounce on him and bite him. But Ji Rui stood nearby and had already taught her a very severe lesson before. She also knew that Qianye was very powerful, but it was useless even if he tried his best.
"Where is Honglian?"
Qianye just asked casually, without expecting to get any results. Unexpectedly, Mrs. He was startled after hearing this. Then she remembered something, laughed loudly, and said: "You want to catch Honglian, right? I tell you, she has gone away a long time ago. You have no chance of finding her, and you will never find her." Don't think about it. If you offend the Gaohu people, you will live in fear all your life, unable to move in a neutral place! When you die, your women and daughters will become playthings. I will give them to the spider demon to play with. Eat it alive when it’s enough, haha, haha!”
Qianye was indifferent to Mrs. He's vicious curse and just looked at Ji Rui silently.
Ji Rui's face turned green and red, and finally couldn't help it. He waved his hand and gave a loud slap in the face, shouting: "Shut up!"
Mrs. He staggered to the ground after being whipped. She looked at Ji Rui in shock and trembled: "You, you hit me? You dare to hit me? If my father's mercenary group hadn't helped you back then, you would be where you are today. ? How dare you hit me now!"
Ji Rui's face was gloomy, he cursed 'idiot' bitterly, turned around and left. After leaving the courtyard, Manager Liu came up to him and asked in a low voice: "Master, what should I do now?"
"Watch her, don't allow her to step out of the courtyard! Besides, these girls in the courtyard are so courageous that they dare to bewitch the master. They are all dragged out and beaten to death!"
"Uh, yes!" Manager Liu saw that the city lord was angry and did not dare to persuade him.
Qianye followed Ji Rui until they entered the study. The two sat down and asked, "City Lord, what should I say about this matter?"
Ji Rui smiled bitterly, "Why is the general so aggressive?"
Qianye smiled slightly and said: "This is a neutral place. If you want something, you can't talk, you can only rely on fighting. This is the truth the city bishop gave me."
Ji Rui sighed heavily, "Women make mistakes, women make things happen! The general should give you an accurate letter on how to resolve this matter."
"Three battleship ballistas must be produced by the empire, level three or above, high-quality products."
Sweat immediately fell from Ji Rui’s fat face and he shouted: “This is impossible!”
Ship ballistas are all used as main guns. The third-level naval gun can be installed on destroyer-level aerostats and used as the main gun. In other words, Qianye asked for the main guns of three destroyers in one go.
"It's Santai." Qianye didn't let go.
"This, this has emptied most of my wealth! Instead of doing this, I might as well go to war with you. Besides, if it weren't for that woman, I'm afraid the general wouldn't have the chance to say this, right?" Ji Rui smiled bitterly.
If Mrs. He hadn't recruited Hong Lian to stay at her place, the situation would definitely not be what it is now. Qianye was planning to apologize verbally and then have normal business dealings with Ji Rui. Because looking at the situation at the time, Qianye knew that Ji Rui was probably unaware of the attack, and that it was probably He Fu and Hong Lian who secretly planned it.
Now that Ji Rui has spoken up to this point, Qianye opened his mouth at first, and then asked: "What does the city lord mean?"
"A level four ballista, made by the Empire, 80% new. No more!" Ji Rui said reluctantly.
In Qianye’s expectation, the secondary batteries on both wings of the Hall of Heroes were to use level four, that is, frigate-level ballistae. The frigate may seem inconspicuous, but the fourth-level ballistae is used as the main gun. Generally, only one can be placed on a frigate. If there are more, the power will not be enough.
Such goods are extremely difficult to obtain in a neutral place. As the city lord, Ji Rui doesn't have many of them. It would really hurt his heart to be able to give him a 80% new one.
Qianye did not push too hard and nodded: "That's it."
Next, the two discussed the ballista business again, and finally decided that Ji Rui would be responsible for providing at least seven level four ballistas and two level three ballistas. Qianye still paid with black crystal. The ballista that Ji Rui paid for was delivered together, making a total of ten.
Ten crossbows and matching crossbow arrows are a big business worth nearly one million. After just giving away a level four ballistae, Ji Rui's profit from this business was not much. So the smile on that fat face looked a little forced.
Qianye also understands that a level four ballista costs at least 60,000 to 70,000, which is not a small amount of money anywhere. Now just because Mrs. He said a few words, tens of thousands of gold coins flew away, and no one would be in a good mood if she put them on her.
But this was no longer Qianye’s business. After finalizing the details of the transaction, Qianye said goodbye and left.
This time, Qianye believes that Ji Rui will not dare to play the trick of intercepting goods again.
After Qianye left, Ji Rui sat in the study for a long time, with a gloomy face and said nothing. In recent days, he has been spending more and more time in the study.
It wasn't until the sky turned dark that Ji Rui ordered someone to light a lamp, took out a book from the bookshelf, and read it carefully. The scroll is full of Qianye’s past information. The more he looked at it, the tighter Ji Rui's eyebrows became.
Qianye left the city lord's palace and found a hotel to stay in Nanqing City. The Gaohu gunner followed Qianye step by step, with a grimace on his face. He betrayed Honglian and was really unable to move forward at this moment, so he could only rely on Qianye.
However, this gunner does have some uses. Not only can he use the mobile cannon superbly, he is also a good labor force in ordinary times. At this moment, three machine guns were carried on his back, and he didn't even complain.
After staying at the hotel, Qianye asked the gunner about Honglian.
It turns out that Guren and Qingyue are similar in age and very close in blood. They are still cousins. Guren is one year older than Qingyue, and both of them were candidates for Gaohu Battle Girl. Qingyue relied on her perfect compatibility with the stealth device and won unanimous praise from the elders. In the end, she narrowly defeated Honglian and became the war girl of the Gaohu people, and was qualified to control space equipment.
For the Gaohu people who are famous for their mechanical transformation, any space equipment means extra energy and ammunition, which is combat power. Therefore, after obtaining only a few pieces of space equipment in the clan, Qingyue's combat power has greatly increased, and has already vaguely tied Honglian.
Honglian is extremely unwilling to accept this. Her mother clan is very powerful among the Gaohu people, and they have done a lot of things secretly. In the underground lair, the two elders who supported Qingyue were all killed underground, and the balance of power in the Council of Elders changed subtly.
This time Qingyue recognized Qianye as the master and prepared to establish a new ancestral land for the Gaohu people. As soon as the news came out, the entire Gaohu clan was shocked, and the controversy over Qingyue's position as the master was immediately subsided. Although the transfer of the ancestral land will take a long time to be completed, once it is completed, Qingyue will definitely become the new clan leader of Gaohu, and Honglian will have no chance.
Honglian is also a ruthless character. He knows that Qianye is the key figure, so he sneaks into Nanqing City secretly, hoping to kill Qianye and seize the secrets from Qianye. With the help of Gaohu people's connections, she hit it off with Mrs. He. With Mrs. He's full help, she quietly ambush the killer in Nan Qingcheng, just waiting for Qianye's arrival.
What Honglian has set up is indeed a killing trap. Even if a master like Ji Rui steps into the trap and is caught in the fire by three gunners, he may be seriously injured if he is caught off guard. Human bodies are inherently fragile, and this is a fact that is difficult to change.
However, Honglian never expected that Qianye could resist the concentrated fire of three machine guns and still remain unscathed!
As a result, the three gunners and all auxiliary personnel were wiped out, which was also a heavy blow to Honglian. Even her mother clan only had four such gunners. Most of her subordinates' strength was cut off in one fell swoop.
After telling the whole story, the gunner pointed to one of the cannons on the ground and said, "Sir, this cannon is different from the other two. It is one of the treasures of our Gaohu people."
Qianye looked at the cannon. In his opinion, these three cannons looked exactly the same, with no difference. Although level five multi-barreled cannons are rare, they are not very precious, so Qianye didn't care.
"Oh? What's the difference?" Qianye asked.
