Seeing Dai Yichen so serious, Lou Gao was also very surprised, so surprised!
Dai Yichen was really just as his disciples had said, without any royal airs at all, and his attitude was very sincere, without any overbearing attitude. If he continued like this, he would be the one who was wrong.
Then, Lou Gao waved his hand and sighed, "Your Highness the Fourth Prince, please don't be like this. This is not your fault, and you don't have to apologize to me.
You said you can raise the blacksmith's influence to a higher level? Is it just these two weapons? I admit that the power of Zhuge's divine crossbow is indeed quite powerful, but what you said is a bit..."
Dai Yichen smiled and said, "Senior Lou Gao, you are wrong. You don't think I only have these two things, do you?"
"Ah?" Lou Gao was slightly stunned, and looked at Dai Yichen with a light in his eyes: "You said you have something better? Take it out! Let me see!"
Lou Gao's attitude changed again. For a pure craftsman like him, the attraction of the novel forgings was fatal.
Dai Yichen shook his head and said, "Senior Lou Gao, where do I get so much time to make them? But... I have other things besides the blueprints for these two weapons. I came to the Blacksmith Association for two purposes. One is to make you the court forger, and the other is to completely conquer the Blacksmith Association."
After saying that, Dai Yichen took out the production drawings of the hidden arrow, Zhuge magic crossbow and sealed milk bottle.
Lou Gao wanted to refuse at first, but after seeing the three drawings, he couldn't help but take them and have a look. He almost understood the production of the sleeve arrows by looking at the appearance, and he also understood half of the Zhuge magic crossbow. Now after seeing the production drawings, he understood it all!
What shocked him was the third drawing.
Soul guide - sealed baby bottle!
"This...this is..." Lou Gao's voice trembled slightly, and his body also began to shake. He was too excited!
How can there be such a sophisticated weapon...Oh no, it should be called a soul guide!
At this moment, he also understood what Dai Yichen meant by raising the influence of blacksmiths to a higher level. He wanted the blacksmiths to thoroughly learn new techniques and the techniques for making soul guides!
At this time, Lou Gao also put away his smile and said seriously: "Your two weapons are just the beginning. You want to innovate! You want the blacksmith to develop to the next stage, um... soul guide maker, soul guide, right?"
After these words were spoken, Dugu Bo looked at Dai Yichen with some surprise. Soul mentor?
How much shock will this little monster bring to him!
Dai Yichen chuckled and said, "Senior Lou Gao, you guessed it right. The reason why I took out these two weapons that are mainly forged by ordinary means is because the parts of these two weapons are not difficult to make. Any blacksmith with certain skills can complete them and finally assemble them.
But it is not the same with soul guides. Take the bottle soul guide in my hand that can store soul power. Although some soul guide parts can be made by others, most of them need to be made by the soul guide himself, and the difficulty of making them is not low for the current Blacksmith Association! "
"Senior Lou Gao, can I ask how many blacksmiths in the association can independently make ordinary storage soul guides?"
Lou Gao thought for a moment and said, "If we talk about independent production, there should be less than ten people, except for me and my four disciples."
"So few?" Dugu Bo was a little confused. In such a large Blacksmith Association, including Lou Gao and his disciples, there are only about ten people who can make storage soul guides?
Si Long on the side smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Dugu Bo, you should know how many gold soul coins are needed for a basic storage soul guide on the market, right? A defective product costs several hundred gold soul coins, and a good one costs more than a thousand gold soul coins. It is precisely because there are too few people who can make it, so the price is very expensive!"
Dugu Bo: .....
This amount of money is not a lot for him, but it may not be the case for others. Some small sects may only produce thousands of gold soul coins a year, or even less than...
white crane:.....
"That's enough. This is more than I thought. Senior Lou Gao, you should know what I'm thinking, right? I want you to be the leader and gather all the blacksmiths who can make soul guides. While learning new soul guide techniques, we can also train new soul guides."
"As for iron weapons such as the Hidden Arrows and Zhuge Divine Crossbow, they will be made by a number of blacksmiths, and eventually sold all over the continent. The blacksmiths who participate in the sales will receive 10% of the profits. How do you think?"
"Of course, these weapons must first be provided to our royal family for arming. In return, we will provide you with the necessary production materials and soul mentor training funds."
Lou Gao had a conflicted look on his face. To be honest, he was not willing to get involved with the royal family, but those weapons and soul guides made his heart, as a craftsman, very excited.
Not to mention Silong who was standing aside. He was too shocked by Dai Yichen today.
From his perspective, those two weapons were advanced enough to bring a certain social status to their Blacksmith Association, and the subsequent soul guides were even more subversive. Soul guide... this name was much more domineering than that of a blacksmith!
Moreover, to put it nicely, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is recruiting, but the reality is that a huge amount of money is spent to cultivate their Blacksmith Association!
There can't be no blacksmiths in the imperial city. The royal family should also have a group of trusted blacksmiths, who are exclusively for the royal family.
Although their skills are not as good as his teacher's, their loyalty is absolutely impeccable. There is really no need for Dai Yichen to come personally to recruit the Blacksmith Association, or his teachers, to start training those under his command. It would only take more time.
But Dai Yichen still came, which is enough to show his sincerity!
"Teacher..." Silong wanted to persuade him. This was an opportunity for their Blacksmith Association and for people like them. Even if the teacher was unwilling to get involved in the complicated situation of the two empires or even the situation on the continent, he still had to consider the sake of their association!
This is the first time in so many years that I have received the attention of the royal family and can also get rid of that annoying Spirit Hall. How great!
Before Ke Silong could finish his words, Dai Yichen took out a purple gold card and gave him another drastic measure: "Senior Lou Gao, this card contains a total of 10 million gold soul coins. I got it from my father, and he also supported my trip this time. I have shown my sincerity to you. Now it depends on your choice."
Ten million gold soul coins!
So rich, so wealthy!
Not only Lou Gao and Si Long, even Dugu Bo's mouth twitched. He really is worthy of being Dai Yutian, so rich and powerful?
