Chapter 30: Becoming a Castle Lord (two chapters in one)
After coming out of the basic footwork training ground, Zhang Tie was in a good mood. Ma Aiyun, Gu Caidi and the others knew that Zhang Tie had something to do, so they said goodbye and left.
Zhang Tie's performance in the assessment channel just now has allowed Zhang Tie to successfully pass the basic footwork. Zhang Tie will not use this place in the future.
According to Ma Aiyun and others, the basic footwork subject is the most difficult of all required subjects. Most people in Lingtian Academy pass the basic footwork assessment within half a year to a year. Unexpectedly, Zhang Tie took more than two months
Just passed the test. Although this record is not the fastest, it can be regarded as a standard that only a very small group of people in Lingtian Academy can achieve.
Who was the fastest person to pass the basic footwork test? Zhang Tie asked Ma Aiyun this question. Ma Aiyun looked at Lan Yunxi and smiled, and Zhang Tie understood.
The group of people separated outside the basic footwork training ground.
"Senior sisters, the potion bottles I ordered will arrive in another week. Just come to me then!"
"But we can't raise much money at once!" Gu Caidi explained, "I may not get too many medicines from you in the beginning."
In Lingtian Academy, you have to pay a monthly fee of 30 gold coins every month. Most people have difficulty making money, and a few girls have not saved much money. Although they are interested in doing this business, they are a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, I'll keep the money on credit first. You can sell the potions first, and then come back and settle the bill with me after you sell them!" Zhang Tie said generously.
"I'm so embarrassed!"
"It doesn't matter, it's just a few hundred gold coins. I can give you two hundred potions on credit first, and you can come back and settle the bill with me after you sell them all. If you can't sell them all, you can return the potions. You guys try it first, it will work.
If it continues to be like this, if it doesn’t work, the senior sisters will just treat it like a joke!"
Gu Caiyun and the girls looked at each other, feeling secretly moved in their hearts. They knew that although Zhang Tie was careless and a bit naughty at times, he was actually very considerate and always considerate of others. Zhang Tie was able to offer such conditions and had already considered all aspects for them.
Now, by doing this, you are almost pushing the opportunity to make a fortune to a few people.
Girls are very reserved. They are not very good at expressing their feelings, especially when outsiders are around. When Zhang Tie said this, several girls just looked at Zhang Tie deeply, thanked him, and left.
.
From beginning to end, Lan Yunxi's fourth uncle was listening nearby. He watched Zhang Tie throw out two hundred full-effect potions in just a few words when he was separated from these girls. His heart moved. It seems that Zhang Tie
Sure enough, Tie has mastered the method of large-scale production of full-effect potions.
After the girls left, Lan Yunxi's fourth uncle went straight to the point and told Zhang Tie why he came here to find him.
Zhang Taibai—Lan Yunxi’s fourth uncle, the younger brother of Zhang Taixuan, Count of Changfeng, and the director of the Changfeng Merchant Group. Such an identity shocked Zhang Tie.
"You mean the Changfeng Merchant Group wants to cooperate with me?" Zhang Tie glanced at this pampered man in his fifties, but he didn't expect that the full-effect potion would attract such a behemoth as the Changfeng Merchant Group.
"Well, full-effect potions have many uses. If you can produce them in large quantities, we will have a basis for cooperation. If you can only produce them in small quantities, I'm afraid you won't be able to meet the needs of the Changfeng Merchant Group!" Zhang Taibai smiled.
said with a smile.
Zhang Tie certainly knows this. For an organization like the Changfeng Merchant Group, which has many big forces and national customers, ordinary tens of thousands of full-effect potions are not even enough to fill the gap between the teeth. Just order tens of thousands of them.
The business of gold coins is not worth a trip by the directors of the business group in person.
"Oh, if I can produce in large quantities, I wonder how the Changfeng Business Group is going to cooperate with me?" Several people said as they walked. The environment in Lingtian Courtyard is quiet, with scenery everywhere, birds singing and flowers blooming everywhere, and there is no need to deliberately find a place.
You can talk about things.
Zhang Taibai, Lan Yunxi and Zhang Tie walked together. The few followers Zhang Taibai brought, who seemed to be bodyguards, deliberately slowed down and walked behind the three people.
Feeling that Zhang Tie's evil eyes were wandering around her body as she walked, Lan Yunxi patiently pretended to be nonchalant and walked with the two of them, not wanting her fourth uncle to discover that she and Zhang Tie were special.
"I heard that your method of making full-effect potions is a secret. If you are willing, the Changfeng Merchant Group is prepared to invest in acquiring your secret!" Zhang Taibai said bluntly, "As for the price, it is absolutely not
You will be disappointed!"
Zhang Tie smiled. If it were in the past, he would definitely be excited by this proposal. For Zhang Tie, such an acquisition only requires him to create a batch of Yuan Neng Aura Yeast that will always maintain the vitality of reproduction and regeneration.
But now, after knowing the value of the full potion, he certainly would not do such a thing of killing the goose that lays the egg.
"I won't consider selling the secret of making a full-effect potion for the time being!" When discussing business, Zhang Tie naturally approached it with a business-like attitude, not at all because of Zhang Taibai's identity and his relationship with Lan Yunxi.
compromise.
Zhang Tie's shrewd and straightforward attitude at this time made Lan Yunxi, who was walking together, look at him in surprise. This rogue guy, when he is not a rogue, is also very admirable. Lan Yunxi
Said in his heart.
"Are you really not thinking about it anymore?" Zhang Tie's straightforward attitude also surprised Zhang Taibai a little. Zhang Tie refused him without even asking the price. Such an attitude either means that Zhang Tie is not
Loving money means that he has a very strong trump card. Zhang Taibai thought for a moment in his heart. Looking at Zhang Tie's age and his recent behavior in Lingtian Court, it would be false to say that he doesn't love money. Then, just
There is only one last possibility.
"Why don't we go to the place where I make the full-effect potion?" Zhang Tie did not directly answer Zhang Taibai's question, but made a suggestion that Zhang Taibai could not refuse. Find out Zhang Tie's ability to make full-effect potion.
This is the main reason why Zhang Taibai came to Qianlong Island. If Zhang Tie can really have the ability to manufacture full-effect potions on a "large scale", then Zhang Tie's value must be re-evaluated.
Lan Yunxi was also curious about the place where Zhang Tie made the full potion, and did not refuse the proposal.
The group of people walked and chatted until they arrived at the Poria House in Baicao Valley.
When the girls from Zhixingyuan left here, they didn't know that what Zhang Tie was making here was a full-effect potion. So in a strict sense, this was the first time that Zhang Tie brought people to visit his "factory where full-effect potions are made."
”.
Zhang Taibai and Lan Yunxi originally thought that Zhang Tie would take them to the laboratory, but unexpectedly Zhang Tie brought several people to the warehouse of Fuling House.
Because it was daytime, light passed through a piece of frosted glass and a metal protective net and shined through the window on one side of the Fuling House warehouse. The entire warehouse was clean and refreshing, and everything was clearly visible.
Zhang Taibai and Lan Yunxi, who had just come in, did not at first connect the nearly a hundred huge clay pots piled neatly in the warehouse with Zhang Tie's full potion. The two of them looked around and found that the entire
I was shocked when only those big clay pots existed in the warehouse.
Are these pottery pots filled with full-effect potions? As soon as this idea came up, not only Lan Yunxi but also Zhang Taibai was stunned. Even for Zhang Taibai, such a scene was quite shocking.
.
"Could it be...are these all full-effect potions?" After Zhang Taibai came to his senses, he asked Zhang Tie in disbelief.
"Well, not yet, but we will wait for another two months!" Zhang Tie smiled and said lightly.
Zhang Taibai took a breath of cold air. After taking a deep breath, Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie, his eyes sparkling, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious, "Can I take a look?"
"Look as you like!"
Zhang Taibai casually walked to a large clay pot, opened the lid of the clay pot, and a faint aroma slowly spread in the warehouse. When people smell it, they feel refreshed. What's inside the clay pot
Although the super enzyme has not been completely fermented, it has begun to reveal its unique smell after fermenting for a few days.
After looking at one clay pot, Zhang Taibai closed the lid of the clay pot, opened another clay pot, and carefully inspected the contents of the clay pot.
Seeing that Zhang Taibai's attention was suddenly attracted to those pottery pots, Lan Yunxi also had a look of disbelief on his face, Zhang Tie took a look. There were only three of him left in the entire warehouse, and the two beside Zhang Taibai
A follower did not follow him in, but stood guard outside the door of Poria House, so he regained his courage and quietly reached out to hold Lan Yunxi's little hand.
As soon as her hand was held by Zhang Tie, Lan Yunxi reacted. A blush flashed on her pretty face. She quietly struggled hard, but found that she couldn't get away at all. Her fourth uncle was here, so she couldn't make too big a fuss.
He could only wait for Zhang Tie in shame, and mouthed a few words to Zhang Tie - bastard, let me go!
Zhang Tie smiled proudly and still held Lan Yunxi's hand tightly without wavering at all. Lan Yunxi's hand was soft and delicate, with a slight cold feeling and fragrance. Zhang Tie held it
Don't let go - this is his free will. The person he likes is right in front of him. If he doesn't have the courage to hold hands at this time, then what a waste.
Zhang Tie was proud too early.
Lan Yunxi gritted her teeth and stepped on Zhang Tie's foot.
"Ah..." Zhang Tie shouted, and Lan Yunxi took the opportunity to break free.
Zhang Taibai suddenly turned around from behind a pile of clay pots and asked, "What's wrong?"
Both of them pretended as if nothing had happened.
"Ah... I just suddenly remembered that there are two cans here that have been fermented. I can invite you to try them. They taste good!" Zhang Tie used a smile to cover up the expression of pain on his face.
Strange.
Lan Yunxi really laughed, with a hint of pride in having the upper hand that only Zhang Tie could understand, "Since Junior Brother Zhang Tie is so determined, let's give it a try!"
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll get some cups!" When turning around, Zhang Tie slightly bared his teeth at Lan Yunxi, who gave him a blank stare...
Zhang Tie quickly came over with a few cups. He went directly to the two clay pots he had packed. As soon as the two clay pots were opened, the special and vivid fragrance in the room suddenly became stronger than before.
More than ten times more, Zhang Taibai and Lan Yunxi both took a deep breath when they smelled this fragrance.
Zhang Tie used a bamboo wine scoop to scoop out the super enzyme from the clay pot. It was a full cup, about three to four hundred milliliters. Zhang Tie also made a cup himself.
"Try it, this stuff actually tastes good!" Zhang Tie handed a cup to Zhang Taibai, and then handed another cup to Lan Yunxi.
Zhang Taibai and Lan Yunxi have actually never tasted the full potion. As soon as Zhang Tie knocked it out and put it into the cup, the color and smell, just one sip, made both of them feel...
There was a refreshing feeling. Zhang Taibai took a sip first without hesitation. As soon as he drank it, Zhang Taibai's eyes lit up, and then he took another sip.
"Sister, please try it too. Super enzyme is a holy product for beauty. It can whiten the skin and delay aging. If you are as beautiful as senior, you must take good care of it. Only senior's husband will like it in the future!" Zhang Tie said "with profound meaning"
.
"Yunxi, try it, this thing tastes really special!" Zhang Taibai also suggested from the side.
Lan Yunxi also knew that Zhang Tie was like a dog and couldn't spit out ivory. After glaring at Zhang Tie, she finally couldn't help being curious and took a small sip. After just one sip, Lan Yunxi frowned slightly.
She relaxed. She never thought that a scoundrel like Zhang Tie could make such delicious food. If this thing was a drink, it was almost the best thing she had ever drunk in her life.
Zhang Taibai drank a cup directly, licked his lips, and looked at Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie took his cup and gave him another drink, reminding him, "You will get drunk if you drink too much at one time."
situations happen, so you still have to pay attention!”
"Have you ever been drunk?"
"I got drunk once, but this kind of thing is very comfortable after being drunk, just like sleeping in spring. When you wake up, you will be full of energy, energetic and fierce!"
After taking two more sips, Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie seriously and sighed, "I finally understand why you are unwilling to transfer the secret of brewing this kind of thing, because no one is willing to pay a few gold coins.
To sell an endless gold mine, how many full potions are there in this house?"
"About 11 or 2 tons!" Zhang Tie replied seriously. "If the cans are ready, we should be able to get more than 110,000 full-effect potions!"
"Do you know the value of these things?"
"I didn't know before, but now I know a little bit!" Zhang Tie smiled, pointed at the pots in the room, and said in a calm tone, "In two months, depending on the market situation, the market value of these things should be
Around 600,000 to 1 million gold coins!”
Hearing what Zhang Tie said, even Lan Yunxi couldn't help but look at Zhang Tie again. The family she was born in made her understand the value and power of money. 600,000 gold coins, no matter where they are, is no longer a person.
A small amount, this money can already equip a 5,000-man heavy infantry regiment. The number one on the Qianlong wealth list in Lingtian Court is only worth more than 200,000 gold coins.
"How much of this can you make? Is it difficult to make it?"
Hearing this question, Zhang Tie, who had been prepared for a long time, held back and did not reveal all his knowledge. Zhang Tie could make as many of these things as he wanted, and it was effortless, but what he said was,
Another words, "As long as there are sufficient raw materials, that is, various fruits, I can probably make 400 to 600 tons of this kind of thing a year. Making this kind of thing will consume a lot of my energy and physical strength.
With my current ability, manufacturing 600 tons a year is already the limit. What you just drank was catalyzed by me using a special method, and there are only two cans..."
"Can you catalyze it at any time to complete fermentation in advance?"
"Theoretically, it is possible to catalyze a small amount of super enzyme to complete the fermentation in advance, but I will never do such a thing again. I catalyzed two cans this time, and it almost made me go crazy and kill me!"
Zhang Tie said with a frightened expression, as if those two cans of stuff were really "catalyzed" by him.
In fact, "catalysis" is nonsense. Even with the Black Iron Castle, Zhang Tie cannot shorten the fermentation time of Yuan Neng Spirit Qi yeast. Saying this now is just blocking this road. Anyway, Zhang Tie will not do it in the future.
He knows how to do this kind of package s
Hearing what Zhang Tie said, Zhang Taibai nodded. With the ability to produce two to three hundred tons of full-effect pharmaceuticals every year, he was already qualified to cooperate with the Changfeng Merchant Group. His trip was not in vain. Zhang Tie really had great potential.
The ability to manufacture full-effect pharmaceuticals on a large scale.
"I think we can talk about cooperation now!" Zhang Taibai said with a smile.
"I have the ability to manufacture full-effect pharmaceuticals, and Changfeng Business Group has ready-made channels and markets. Both of us have things that the other party likes. If the conditions are right, I am also looking forward to this cooperation with Changfeng Business Group!"
Zhang Tie said neither humble nor overbearing.
"We first need to confirm the quality of these potions you produce in large quantities. Our first order will not be a lot, just 20,000!"
"No problem, it will be available in two months. Each full-effect potion costs 6 gold coins. If there is any problem with any potion, you can return it!" Zhang Tie said confidently.
"If there is no problem with the 20,000 pills this time and it proves that you have the ability to manufacture full-effect potions on a large scale, we will have a huge demand in the future."
"How big is it?"
"At least two million pills per year!" Zhang Taibai pointed to Zhang Tie's small warehouse, "The scale of your manufacturing here is too small. It cannot meet the needs of the Changfeng Merchant Group! Without affecting the quality of the medicine
Next, we hope that the larger your manufacturing scale, the better, because this medicine has many effects. In the later stage, the market demand for this medicine may be astronomical, so you need to be prepared for large-scale mass production in advance!
"
Zhang Tie smiled. "That's easy, just build a full-effect potion production base on Qianlong Island!"
"The production base for the full-effect pharmaceutical is prepared by the Changfeng Business Group. It is on Qianlong Island. Even if we cooperate in the production and the Changfeng Business Group is responsible for the sales, we only need to occupy a small share of the base!" Zhang Taibai's eyes flashed.
Glossy.
"The production base of the full-effect pharmaceutical was built with my own money. I will not transfer the shares. Changfeng Business Group is the main underwriter of the full-effect pharmaceutical, but it is not the only one. If I want, I can introduce at most other people.
With more than four lead underwriters, the number of medicines I supply to Changfeng Merchant Group every year is no less than 2 million, and the supply price is no higher than the price I supply to other lead underwriters!"
Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie and frowned slightly. He didn't expect Zhang Tie to be so shrewd. He didn't look like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, but a veteran who had been in the business world for many years. He was willing to spend every penny on key issues. His reaction
agile.
After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Taibai said, "A safe and efficient production base requires a lot of investment. Now that the cooperation has been confirmed, the production base must be built immediately. Otherwise, the supply rhythm cannot keep up, and a lot will be missed.
Opportunity!”
"That's simple, you can lend me the money, and I will use the future payment for the medicine as collateral. I will use the loan you gave me. Then I will entrust you to help me build a production base, but I can only have the final say on the entire production base.
, is my territory!" Zhang Tie said calmly. Compared to the Changfeng Business Group's concerns about the quality of the pharmaceuticals after large-scale manufacturing, Zhang Tie is full of confidence and has nothing to worry about.
"If you don't want to, you can wait a moment. After I sell this batch of potions, I will have the money to build a production base. But this will take a few months! By then, we will
It’s not too late to talk about cooperation, and for the sake of Changfeng Business Group, the conditions can still remain the same!”
"Are you really unwilling to give up your shares in the production base?"
"Will Huaiyuantang give up its shares in the craftsmanship workshop that makes bows and arrows and rune equipment?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Tie immediately asked.
There is no way to allow others to snore on the side of the bed. Zhang Tie must control the production and manufacturing of the full-effect potion in his own hands no matter what, and does not allow others to interfere. Zhang Tie does not want to listen to other people's whining on his own territory.
Wai Wai, especially for a strong collaborator like the Changfeng Merchant Group, if the production and sales of the full-effect potion are controlled by them, then what else does he have to do? He made something like a full-effect potion by himself, but because of
This kind of thing has become someone else's high-end wage earner, and he is satisfied with just a few gold coins. If Tang De wanted to know, he would jump up and slap himself in the mouth, and scold himself bloody.
I am definitely no match for the Changfeng Merchant Group when it comes to playing tricks, so I might as well not give them a chance to play tricks in the first place.
When it comes to doing business, hoarding rare items is certainly not a very clever method, but if you really have rare items, there’s no harm in hoarding them!
Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie expressionlessly, and Zhang Tie looked at him calmly without timidity. The two of them looked at each other in the warehouse without saying a word for half a minute. The pressure on Zhang Taibai became more and more intense.
Strong, even Lan Yunxi next to him felt the oppressive and tough atmosphere in the warehouse. Zhang Tie's performance at this moment, in Lan Yunxi's eyes, was like a different person, looking at Zhang Tie at this moment with his fourth uncle
The tough and shrewd appearance of a competitive man, and then thinking about this man smiling playfully in front of her without looking like a serious scoundrel, a strange feeling surged in Lan Yunxi's heart.
"The full-effect potion is a gold mine. It will attract many people to peep and salivate in the future. Without the Changfeng Merchant Group, are you sure you can hold on to this gold mine?" After a long time, Zhang Taibai asked calmly.
.
"Because of this, for the sake of the dignity of the Zhang family in Huaiyuantang, and for the long-term cooperation between us, I don't agree to the Changfeng Business Group to become a shareholder! I'm not the kind of person who likes to suffer losses and have to swallow it, let alone
I like others to tell me what to do!"
Zhang Taibai understood Zhang Tie's words immediately, and he pondered slightly. This kind of thing that Zhang Tie was worried about was not impossible to happen. The more coveted something is, the more people will envy it. Some people will become jealous.
, maybe something will be done. The Zhang family is a community of interests, but under this community, everyone also has their own interests and demands.
"Except for me and my future descendants, I guarantee that there will be no other person in the world who can master the secret method of making a fully effective potion. This is something that others will never be able to learn!"
Zhang Tie's second sentence made Zhang Taibai stare at him seriously for more than ten seconds. Finally, Zhang Taibai suddenly smiled and said, "Since you insist so much, forget it. The matter of building a pharmaceutical production base will be up to you."
Just do what you say, I will ask someone to come and discuss specific cooperation matters with you. By the way, these things you have here are for sale!"
"yes!"
"That's good!" Zhang Taibai nodded and suddenly called out, "Ah Da!"
An entourage following Zhang Taibai suddenly appeared at the door of the warehouse like a ghost. Zhang Taibai pointed to the big clay pot that Zhang Tie had just opened and said, "Take it away!" The man came over and grabbed the pot without saying a word.
A large clay pot weighing more than one hundred kilograms was in my hand.
Zhang Tie was stunned, "You... what are you doing?" These things were the supplies Zhang Tie left behind.
Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie solemnly and pressed Zhang Tie's shoulder with one hand, "You just said these things are for sale, and doing business is not a joke."
"But……"
"It's nothing but..." Zhang Taibai took out a golden ticket and slapped it on Zhang Tie's hand, "I bought this can of stuff!" After saying this, before Zhang Tie could react, he faced the person directly again.
He said, "Ah Da, hurry up and send the things to the airship..."
When Ah Da heard this, he disappeared from the warehouse like a ghost. Of course, what disappeared with him was the large clay pot of more than 100 kilograms in his hand.
Zhang Tie looked at the gold ticket in his hand that could be redeemed for 20,000 gold coins at any time, and couldn't help but laugh or cry. He never expected that Lan Yunxi's fourth uncle would actually play such a trick. However, this rich man's arrogance also shocked Zhang Tie
Now, looking at the way other people spend 20,000 gold coins, it’s just like spending two gold coins yourself without blinking an eye. Damn, this is 20,000 gold coins, 20,000...
…
All the rich and important people seemed to be busy with their daily affairs. Zhang Taibai came to Qianlong Hall. After leaving Zhang Tie's Poria House, he took the airship and left. When he saw Zhang Taibai leaving, Lan Yunxi was even more excited.
She didn't dare to stay in front of a big bad wolf like Zhang Tie for a second. She didn't even give Zhang Tie a chance to speak. As soon as Zhang Taibai's airship took off, Lan Yunxi jumped onto the tree and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In Zhang Tie's sight.
Looking at Lan Yunxi's retreating figure, Zhang Tie felt depressed, and a faint melancholy arose in his heart.
The terrifying work efficiency of the Changfeng Merchant Group became apparent in the afternoon. Just a few hours after Zhang Taibai left, a team sent by the Changfeng Merchant Group to Qianlong Island to contact Zhang Tie for the construction of a pharmaceutical production base found
Got Zhang Tie.
When the leader of the team unfolded a pile of construction drawings for the pharmaceutical production base in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie was dumbfounded. Those drawings were all castle designs with powerful defense capabilities...
Do you really want to be the castle master? Zhang Tie suddenly became excited... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation
