Chapter 1070

But Li Li Fubo strongly recommended his two nephews, and other great master craftsmen also pushed out excellent disciples. Casting is the same as cultivation, and it also pays attention to opportunity.

He He Lingchuan has a great opportunity here; maybe the children's power can go to a higher level.

However, He He Lingchuan knew that this was the result of Li Li Qingge's vigorous lobbying and emotional guarantee. Otherwise, no matter how daring the young people are, letting them travel thousands of miles to the remote Yangshan Archipelago is actually no different from being exiled.

However, he looked closely at these ten Songyang Mansion disciples; apart from the fatigue brought by the long journey, their expressions were curiosity mixed with eagerness, and there was no depression or impatience.

According to Li Li Qingge, she personally summoned these disciples and picked out the "battle achievements" of He He Lingchuan's past that could be told and boasted about them, saying that this Elder He was amazingly talented and had the ability to save the world, and if the Songyang Mansion disciples went to follow him at this time, their future achievements would definitely be limitless, and so on.

Seeing her boasting in the letter, even the thick-skinned He He Lingchuan coughed uncomfortably and asked several Songyang Mansion disciples:

"Was the journey smooth?"

"The wind and waves were very big, and there was occasional discomfort." Three of the ten people were seasick and vomited for several days before they recovered, "Other than that, the journey was smooth."

They walked on the sea for two and a half months; except for being intoxicated by the boundless sea view at the beginning, the rest was boring, monotonous, and wild thinking.

However, after arriving at Blade Harbor, the Songyang Mansion team could hear the legends of Elder He everywhere, such as subduing pirates, developing barren islands, taming Yin-Hui, and selling Emperor's Flowing Plasma...

They didn't know what Yin-Hui was, let alone the difficulty of taming them, but the words "selling Emperor's Flowing Plasma" could really shock them! Li Mingrong didn't believe it and refuted the other party a few times, but the wine guest was very unhappy, saying that his grandfather had bought Jisheng Pills on Suoding Island; the old man was already a bit demented and didn't recognize anyone when he had an attack, but he could take medicine on the spot to be clear-headed and recognize people without any hesitation!

The Songyang Mansion team arrived on the island listening to various legends about Island Owner He, and their curiosity had long covered up the fatigue and annoyance of the long journey.

"Thank you all for your hard work." He He Lingchuan's polite words have always been beautiful. What's more, the arrival of the Songyang Mansion people can fill a large gap in the Yangshan Archipelago, which is exactly the talent he urgently needs at the moment, "You can rest in the Yingxiang Pavilion, and the evening banquet has been prepared outside. Come, please take your seats!"

The evening banquet has eighteen dishes, gathering mountain delicacies and seafood; whether it is flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the water, they are all hard dishes.

The Songyang Mansion disciples had been traveling for more than two months and had only eaten in small restaurants in Blade Harbor; at this time, seeing the delicious food, they were all eager to eat.

People who practice are very capable of eating, and He He Lingchuan said don't be polite, and they really weren't polite, eating heartily.

With the help of fine wine, the relationship between the two sides was quickly drawn closer.

In fact, He He Lingchuan, as a guest elder, is also half a Songyang Mansion person, and the Li brothers are also Yuan Kingdom people, so both sides have a natural sense of closeness.

He He Lingchuan also deliberately guided, so the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

After three rounds of wine, He He Lingchuan revealed his purpose and put forward his request, which is to invite the Songyang Mansion disciples to serve as supervisors, specializing in the urgent production of military equipment for the Yangshan Archipelago Guard!

Although the archipelago also recruits blacksmiths, casting weapons is completely different from casting farm tools and daily necessities in terms of material ratio and heat control. These blacksmiths have also tried casting, but the finished product rate and quality are not worth complimenting.

Previously, the military armor and weapons of the guard basically relied on smuggled goods from Platinum Island, which were intermittent, and the quality was not controllable, and the price was expensive—

How could the price of such hard currency on the black market be cheap?

He He Lingchuan asked Ding Ding Zuodong to calculate the cost; purchasing military equipment from Platinum Island is more than 70% higher than the cost of casting it yourself with materials!

So every time he spent money to buy these, his heart ached and he shivered.

But he couldn't not buy them; the number of people in the guard has been growing, and there is wear and tear in daily training. As the Yangshan Archipelago is exposed to the eyes of more and more interested people, the improvement of its armed forces has an inherent urgency.

The arrival of the Songyang Mansion people at this time is no different from a timely rain.

Li Li Qingge is really as reliable as ever.

The Li brothers nodded while listening to He He Lingchuan's request; isn't casting conventional weapons easy? As long as the materials are complete and the manpower is sufficient.

These ten people are just the beginning; the richness of the military equipment He He Lingchuan needs in the future is definitely not enough for ten people.

Even if He He Lingchuan never mentioned it, Li Li Qingge also considered this point. She suggested that He He Lingchuan take the Li brothers and others as mentors to teach skills to the craftsmen on the island, and as long as a few months, a batch of urgent talent can be selected—

Anyway, the guard He He Lingchuan needs only needs ordinary military equipment for the time being. In the final analysis, the casting process is just a process, just proficiency; ordinary craftsmen can become proficient after training hard for a few months.

As for which craftsmen can go from conventional to special, from ordinary to top-notch, it depends on the future.

This is both a way for the Songyang Mansion to open a branch in the Yangshan Archipelago and a way for the Songyang Mansion to help He He Lingchuan develop his talent team.

The Li brothers also checked the mineral products brought by He He Lingchuan and said that the quality was good. Hearing that this was the output of the Yangshan Archipelago, everyone was a little surprised: this is really a place of spiritual beauty, and the products are so rich!

As for other metals and materials needed for casting weapons, He He Lingchuan now has many channels to purchase them, and is no longer helpless as before.

After a meal until the host and guests were happy and about to end, He He Lingchuan asked about the recent situation in the Yuan Kingdom.

The laughter at the dinner table immediately decreased by more than half.

Among these Songyang Mansion disciples, four were from the Yuan Kingdom.

Li Mingyang said in a low voice: "Actually, we traveled across the ocean to seek refuge with you because our homeland is broken and the mountains and rivers are rotten. This kind of life is really endless."

Hearing them say this, He He Lingchuan learned that the northern front of the Yuan Kingdom had collapsed more than two months ago!

General Ke Ke Jihai died in battle on the spot! The army under Zhao Pan was also scattered and had to retreat to the south.

He He Lingchuan traveled 108,000 miles away from the Yuan Kingdom, just because he didn't want to have any more entanglements with it and wanted to start from scratch in a foreign land. But hearing this news, he couldn't help but be moved.

He once defended against the Ghost Ape with Ke Ke Jihai in Shihan City; the latter praised "Big Young Master He" in front of countless dignitaries in the Yuan Kingdom and took off his own saber to give to He He Lingchuan, saying that a precious sword matches a hero.

Ke Ke Jihai's return to Shihan that time was to ask for salary for the hungry and cold front-line army.

Even if the mountains and rivers were broken and the national destiny was drifting, he still stood firmly on the front line of resisting the Grand Marshal and firmly guarded the northern gate of the Yuan Kingdom.
