Chapter 71: Interrogating Chen Cha

After a long silence, Zhu Xuanji chuckled and steadied his emotions, "Interesting."

Then he asked: "What is the origin of these mechanical monkeys?"

Zheng Shuangou frowned immediately and said in disbelief: "Does the Divine Catcher mean that the shadow demonic cultivator used this kind of mechanical monkey to bomb the Immortal Palace?"

"I know this." Chi Dun spoke, his voice low.

He really knew a lot.

After all, at that time, when Fei Si presented the treasure to the City Lord, he was right in front of him.

Chi Dun introduced it to Zhu Xuanji.

Zhu Xuanji nodded slightly and said directly: "Take me to the Flying Disc Workshop."

Flying Disc Workshop.

Chen Cha was handing Ning Zhuo a large batch of spirit stones: "Brother Ning, these are your recent dividends."

The storage bags placed in front of Ning Zhuo were seven or eight, each filled with spirit stones.

Initially, the cooperation agreed upon by Chen Cha and Ning Zhuo was that Chen Cha only took 30%, and the remaining 70% of the revenue was Ning Zhuo's, and Ning Zhuo did not need to pay for any raw materials.

The scale of the mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkey business was very huge; all the mechanical workshops in the city were manufacturing day and night, exerting full production capacity, but there was still a not-so-small gap.

This was not the first time Ning Zhuo had received dividends.

Ever since Chen Cha privately requested Ning Zhuo to transfer the invention identity of the mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkey, Chen Cha had been deeply ashamed and ashamed to face Ning Zhuo.

Therefore, although he knew that Ning Zhuo also had considerable mechanical attainments, he never invited him to the workshop to participate in the production.

Meetings were just for handing over dividends.

But this visit, Ning Zhuo had a different purpose.

"Old Chen, I have important matters to discuss this time."

Chen Cha was stunned for a moment, then said: "Call me Old Chen. Brother Ning, just say it, the old man will definitely help with all his might!"

Ning Zhuo took out a mechanical monkey and placed it in front of Chen Cha.

The familiar scene made Chen Cha stunned again.

"Old Chen, look at this."

"I have been practicing the 'Five Elements Qi Law' hard recently and heard that the mechanical monkeys are still a long way from meeting all the requirements. I thought of a way to increase production."

Chen Cha sighed: "The situation this year is too special."

"In previous Fire Persimmon Festivals, only a portion of fire persimmons were picked, and relying on the Monkey Head Gang as the main force was enough to complete it."

"This year, a Golden Core shadow demonic cultivator escaped into the mountain, making the City Lord's Mansion hesitant. We must pick all the fire persimmons before dealing with the shadow demonic cultivator to minimize losses."

Speaking of this, Chen Cha began to check the mechanical monkey.

Ning Zhuo introduced at the right time: "I changed some material ratios, mainly adjusting the muscles..."

Chen Cha listened to the introduction and checked it himself, his face becoming heavy.

He looked up and took a deep look at Ning Zhuo. If it weren't for his guilt, he would have flicked his sleeves and left, or even scolded him on the spot.

Chen Cha took a deep breath, his face complex, and advised: "Brother Ning, this is purely cutting corners."

"According to your latest plan, you have greatly reduced the production process and indeed reduced a lot of workload. But the mechanical monkeys produced are far worse than before."

"Not only are they easy to scrap when used, but the body melts as soon as it encounters heat."

"I remember you visited me specifically before to discuss solving the drawback of the body melting when encountering heat."

Ning Zhuo smiled: "Old Chen, this is precisely the essence of my improvement!"

"Think about it, how many years can we sell mechanical monkeys?"

"After this year, there will be too many mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkeys on the market. How many can we sell next year?"

"Doing business requires long-term flow."

"These new Fire-Exploding Monkeys will be damaged before long, and only those who have needs will buy them again."

Chen Cha's face sank another point: "My idea is different from yours. Mechanics shouldn't be done like this; we must pay attention to quality, so that there is reputation and repeat customers."

"You have to think that we are not the only ones producing mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkeys. Someone will definitely imitate them in the future. Once our quality is poor, we will hand over the market."

Ning Zhuo smiled indifferently: "Old Chen, what kind of competition are we afraid of with your relationship with Fei Si?"

Just as he was about to continue persuading, a voice suddenly came: "Oh? Chen Cha, what relationship do you have with Fei Si?"

"Who is it?!" Chen Cha stood up immediately.

Ning Zhuo also changed his face and stood side by side with Chen Cha, fully alert.

The next moment, Zhu Xuanji pushed the door and entered, followed by Chi Dun and Zheng Shuangou.

Chen Cha and Ning Zhuo were both shocked and hurriedly saluted.

Both knew Chi Dun and Zheng Shuangou, but felt strange about Zhu Xuanji.

Zhu Xuanji picked up his waist token and introduced himself: "I am Zhu Xuanji, a member of the Divine Catcher Division and a member of the Nandou royal family. I have come here to investigate the reason for the appearance of the Lava Immortal Palace."

"Let me ask you, did you do the appearance of the Immortal Palace?"

Zhu Xuanji stared at Chen Cha, his eyes flashing with golden light.

Chen Cha was dumbfounded by the question!

Two breaths later, he reacted and smiled bitterly: "What ability does this subordinate have to be related to the appearance of the Immortal Palace?"

Zhu Xuanji frowned slightly; he sensed that Chen Cha was not lying.

Then he asked: "How did you design the mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkey? How did you produce and sell it? Explain it all clearly to me."

"This..." Chen Cha hesitated for a moment before biting the bullet and speaking slowly.

He only said a small half when he was interrupted by Zhu Xuanji: "You are lying!"

The next moment, Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with golden light, and a Golden Core-level aura was released, covering Chen Cha and pressing him to the ground directly.

"Bold Chen Cha, how dare you hide something in front of the Divine Catcher?!" Zheng Shuangou shouted.

Chi Dun's face was also like iron: "Tell the truth, otherwise you are an accomplice of the shadow demonic cultivator!"

Chen Cha was so scared that his face was pale, and his body couldn't stop trembling.

"Three lords, wait a moment, the subordinate boldly interjects, there is a hidden story inside, and I am also an insider." Ning Zhuo said busily.

"Oh?" In an instant, the gazes of the three Golden Core cultivators were cast on him.

Zhu Xuanji said meaningfully: "After interrogating Chen Cha, I will interrogate you. But since you want to speak, then speak well, maybe you can make up for your crimes."

In his special vision, Chen Cha and Ning Zhuo were both red to black.

Ning Zhuo was even redder and blacker than Chen Cha.

Ning Zhuo felt great pressure and gritted his teeth: "Whether it is me or Old Chen, we have signed a contract. If we say too much, we fear backlash!"

"Fei Si knows about this."

As soon as this was said, Ning Zhuo's face turned pale, and two nosebleeds flowed out, providing the most significant proof of the "backlash" he just mentioned.

Hearing the name Fei Si, Zhu Xuanji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and look at Chi Dun: "Interesting."

Chi Dun said busily: "I will go and ask the City Lord for instructions."

"No need, I have already arrived." Fei Si's voice came from outside the door.
