At first, Hong Yu thought that his offer was too small and cheap, that he was prepared to bargain with the other party, that he would give up a few more "Demon Grandmaster's heirloom pills", but when he saw the other party's reaction, he actually agreed without hesitation.
But he was also a man of his word, and he would never be able to keep up with it. However, he couldn't go back on his words and could only laugh at himself. He thought to himself that if there was a similar situation where they were to negotiate again, then he should let the Wash Elephant Servant or the Incense Incense Body.
Although he could not regret it, he thought for a moment, after making such a big deal, he would ask the other party for a few more things, but it was not too excessive, and he quickly replied, "I can give you two Legacy pellets for the Demon Masters, but other than repairing the way, I also want the Great Python Armor, the Divine Arms Crossbow, the Bloody Steel Saber, and the Evil Breaking Talisman Arrows that are used in combination with the Divine Arms Crossbow, thirty thousand of them, and ten thousand pieces of information. In addition, I will also need to "spit out money and dragon" ten of them, which will then be installed on the streets of the cities in my fiefdom. "
"Good!" "Sure!" Ban Shu actually still agreed. Without the slightest hesitation, he didn't have the slightest intention to bargain.
Hong Yu was depressed. There was really nothing he could do this time. His experience in the martial arts world was too shallow. It was very easy for others to see the bottom line. He was completely on the passive side during negotiations.
Of course, the most important thing was still that the "Demon Grandmaster's heirloom pill" was precious. Even if he could take an inch after an inch, the other party would still be able to make a huge profit.
"Lord Banshu, please keep the matter of the demonic master's magic pill secret." Hong Yu was on guard as he issued his warning.
My Divine Arts Academy's rules are very strict. If it is leaked, you will be dismissed, and you will be assigned to the front line of every dangerous project to carry out the most dangerous research. If you are unable to get your freedom, then you will have no choice but to face the danger of falling at any time. The only way to release them is to gain merits once again. " Ban Shu straightened his face and looked at his subordinates. This was said to them.
Fine, let's do it this way. When are we going to start repairing the road?" When are you going to send someone to install the banknote dragon in my territory? " Hong Yu asked.
"The construction of the road can begin today." However, we still need the cooperation of the Mo family for the specifics, because they are responsible for building the fiefdom. If we build the road, we will also have some contact with them. If he hurried, the road would be completed in three days and the construction would be completed. As for the money meter, I can give it to the king right away. This is the national policy set by the emperor to cover the entire country within three years. I can give the king 8,000 copies of these instruments right now, so it's nothing much.
If you really want to spit out money, you need to collect money and deposit it in your body, but you can't install it casually. After you want your Royal Highness' land to be sealed, we will install it after we have looked at the area. We will install it in the crowded streets and in the public square, which is where the population is as dense as possible. I wonder what Your Highness is thinking? "
"Three days?" Hong Yu stood up abruptly and was extremely shocked.
"Why does Your Highness still think that you're too slow?" Bantu asked.
"How is this possible?" He took a deep breath and calmed himself down: "It's too fast, the place I fought down here is thousands of miles away, the distance is long, and in the wilderness, I have to lay down a" steel-like mud ". No matter how fast it is, I think it'll take three to five months, or maybe a day, so how could three days be enough?"
"What's that?" Ben Shu smiled slightly: "When I went back earlier, I contacted the ancestor above and received a reply. That ancestor placed great importance on this matter, using the talisman to force the Rage Dragon to fight with such force, moving mountains when met with water, and building bridges when they encounter water. This is also the third generation of product used to repair the road for the prince, solidifying at almost the moment of contact with water, and turning the ground into steel very quickly.
Now, Your Highness can make the Mo family prepare to build a feudal fiefdom, and our Godly Arts Academy has a Huang Long Giant Thunder, and the Mo family has a Coiling Martial Giant Spirit God, and other similar things. This time, the Godly Arts Academy is going to build a feudal fiefdom for the King, and if the speed at which the Mo family build the feudal fief is too slow, and they can't take out any treasures to build it quickly, that would be a huge disgrace. "
"Desolate Dragon's Colossal Battle Thunder?" Hong Yu was speechless.
He remembered that the Mo family had the Mighty Titan God, and the Divine Crafts Academy had the Raging Dragon Great Thunder Battling Skill. They were almost nemesis of each other, and their existences were comparable to the gods of the legends.
It was just like several decades ago when the imperial government had built the Grand Canal that connected the eighteen prefectures. Along the way, they had encountered countless huge mountains and huge mountains that obstructed their path, but they had mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
He did not expect that he would be able to enjoy such treatment even when he was building a normal road. Furthermore, from the other party's words, it seemed like he was going to watch the Mo family become a joke.
It seemed that the Institute was still dissatisfied with him handing over the business of building the feudal fiefdom to the Mo family, and was determined to compete with them. Once the Mo family's feudal fiefdom was built too slowly, much slower than the Raging Dragon's enormous strength, it would definitely be mocked when it opened business among the commoners in the future.
In this case, he was forcing the Mo family to send out the Titan.
However, in this kind of situation, he was actually quite happy to see it happen. The competition between the construction projects of the two families would definitely greatly increase the speed at which the fief was built, as well as increase the quality and structure of the fief. "Alright, since that's the case, I'll urge the Mo family to start construction as well.
"Alright, this is a 'contract', and is also something that the imperial court has created. Both parties will sign a contract, and both parties will be willing to sign and pledge on the contract, thus allowing the agreement to have the legal effect of a great Hong. Once there is a flaw in the project, the prince can take out his own 'contract' and use it to 'uphold the rights' of the Divine Academy of Technology, it is very convenient." The buyer and seller actually used the word A and B to divide it, which was a novel matter. "However, once you sign your signature, you have to first pay half of the deposit, and when the matter is settled, you have to pay the other half. This is common practice, you have to report it to the Emperor when the time comes."
"No problem."
After carefully reading the terms and signing the contract, Ban Shu and the rest quickly left, obviously preparing to start their work. It must be said that the Divine Arts Academy was swift and decisive, without the bloated and lazy organization. Hong Yu was quite impressed by this.
As for Hong Yu, he was still waiting here, waiting for Mo Ning Xiang to return. He had to urge her to speed up the construction of the feudal fiefdom and get started.
"Your Highness, I'm back. I've been out this time and found quite a bit of information. Many of the princes' fiefs have quite a large structure. Let me explain it to you …" It wasn't until the morning of the next day that Mo Ning Xiang rushed back with a stack of blueprints in her hands.
"Alright, I already know all of this. There is no need for you to tell me more about it. I also have my own information channels. " But before he could finish, Hong Yu waved his hand and interrupted him: "This time, Li Muyue arranged for me to come into contact with someone from the Divine Arts Academy. I saw a big shot from the Ban Family, who was at the same tier as a Saint Craftsman. I have already reached an agreement with them. I have to take out two Demonic Master Legacy Magic Pills and have them help me quickly build a path. Moreover, they also brought out their sincerity. They were willing to use the huge strength of the Desolate Dragon to battle the thunder, and in three days, they could complete their cultivation on the road. "I wonder how the Mo family is preparing?"
"What?" You actually went against your agreement with me and cooperated with the Divine Arts Academy? Are you forcing our Mo family to become disgusted? " Mo Ning Xiang was slightly angry, as though she was going to fall out with him.
"Hehe …" Who was the first to break the agreement? Let me ask you this first. You and I have already agreed that we would give you the spirit crystal. Also, you and I agreed to meet at the Ape Devil Temple, where did you go? And what about that Ironback Demonic Wolf Clan and the Wolf Master who wanted to kill me? " Hong Yu sneered, and asked back, "Since you found out about the map of the fiefdom of the other princes, you should know that my brothers are working hard, and I'm still waiting for your Mo family to start working. Tell me, who violated the agreement first, do you think I'm going to make the Mo family feel disgusted, or the Mo family is going to make me feel disgusted?"
He questioned and vented out all his dissatisfaction towards the Mo family. It could be considered a showdown.
The Mo family's actions also angered him. He kept going back and forth, delaying the delivery of some things and making a profit by doing business with him. Yet, he could not come up with a decision over and over again. It was still better to not be compared with the swift and decisive manner of the Divine Arts Academy. It was obvious that the Mo family's efficiency was extremely slow, making people unable to muster the desire to cooperate.
Of course, he also knew that this was not Mo Ningxiang's intention. The main reason was because there were so many internal factions in the Mo family that it was hard to mediate. The organization was also very bulky, which was why their efficiency was extremely slow.
After all, Mo Ningxiang could only represent her own 'radical' personages, and not the highest authority.
He had also thought that if he really fell out with the other party and the Mo family, he would just have to get someone from the Divine Arts Academy to build the feudal fiefdom for him. With money in his hands, who should he cooperate with? At most, he would just leave it to the Mo family. He didn't want to bother with who was in charge of the matters regarding the recruitment of men anymore.
"This... "I am indeed in the wrong, but there is nothing I can do about it. After all, the Mo family is different from the Divine Arts Academy; they are under the jurisdiction of the Hong Wu Emperor, so the efficiency is naturally very fast when you only listen to his orders. I alone am not in charge of the internal affairs of the Mo family, and what happened before was indeed the fault of the Mo family."
Being questioned by Hong Yu, Mo Ningxiang calmed down and her tone softened, "Your highness, you can work together with the Divine Arts Academy. How could the prince of the imperial government avoid the mountain that is the Divine Arts Academy? It was just a matter of time before they crossed paths. Fortunately, His Royal Highness only wanted them to build a road for you, not a feudal fiefdom. If you knew that there was an expert in the art of construction, the Mo family would be ranked second, and no one would dare to claim themselves as number one. I hope that you, your highness, will not continue to fight with my Mo family. "
"It's alright, I was just angry with you just now." When Hong Yu heard the change in the other party's tone, his anger was greatly reduced as well. He knew that he was just speaking angrily earlier and it was just a momentary feeling.
In the eyes of outsiders, he had long been labeled as a "pro-Mo party". No matter what, he had to continue working with the Mo family and console them, "I also know about the ability of your Mo family to build a city, I know more about our relationship, and the transaction with the Divine Arts Academy is just a matter of favor, how much profit can you make in repairing the road? It was absolutely incomparable to building a feudal fiefdom. As long as your Mo family builds a huge city for me, and surpasses the fiefdom built by other princes in one fell swoop, and becomes famous, wouldn't that mean that you have both benefits and fame? "
"That's true." Mo Ningxiang's expression eased up as she thought about what Hong Yu had said.
"Don't rush to talk about this first, I have something to show you …" As Hong Yu said this, he took out the "money monitor" that contained his information and passed it to the other party. Then, he explained the use, origin, and the sequence of events of this item.
"What?" The Divine Arts Academy could actually create such a treasure? A money machine, a money spitting dragon, this has changed the way of life for millions of years in one fell swoop! Whoever had this item would have the economic lifeline of the world. If this went on, wouldn't the Godly Works Academy's power and influence would completely surpass the Mo family's in a few years? "Our Mo family will be completely suppressed and disappear from the face of the earth."
Mo Ning was moved. She fiddled with the jade instruments in her hand and looked at the numbers on it, feeling shocked. This was not a number at all.
"I have long heard that a thousand years ago, the Middle Ancient Class Sage excavated a relic that carried the last era's civilization. He acquired many of the civilization's technologies from the previous era and wanted to decipher them to produce a weapon that could surpass the divine artifact created by my ancestor, the Sky City.
He didn't expect that after studying for so many years, in this generation, the Ban Family had finally made a huge leap by submitting themselves to the Hongwu Emperor. This was clearly an advanced thing that surpassed the current development of humanity. This is a terrifying matter, and it concerns the Mo family's rise and fall. I have to report it to the family and let many ancestors know … "
"Last era's civilization?" Hong Yu's eyelids twitched as well. He had only discovered a trace of this sort of secret. It was said that every 720,000 years was a epoch, and this epoch was the "era of gods." Every 10,000 years, a Martial God appeared, supreme and mighty, sharing the glory of being a ruler and bearing the responsibility of bringing glory to the world.
And 720,000 years ago, was the last era, it was the era of humans. In this era, no one had any faith, nor did they believe in gods or cultivate. It was normal for people to die from old age.
However, the development of humanity had reached its peak. Ordinary people did not need to cultivate, but they could still control enormous magical equipment that could fly in the sky and soar into the ground. They could do anything. In the end, he even developed a huge "iron ship", built a skyscraper on the ground, and aimed to launch it into the supreme Divine Kingdom to challenge the ruler and colonize the Divine Kingdom.
In the end, the ruler was enraged and unleashed a world-destroying calamity. Dusk arrived, killing all the heretics of humanity, causing the heaven and earth to return to chaos, recreating the world, and giving birth to a new era of reincarnation. The present world was the world, and it had even created hell, creating the master of Maha.
The glory of the Hegemony cannot be desecrated. Gods and demons are created by the Hegemony, just as light and darkness are opposed to each other.
He did not expect that the workshop owner of the Divine Arts Academy actually obtained a relic of the last era. No wonder he could come up with new tricks and advertise the world. However, was this the intention of Emperor Hong Wu? Or …
Was this a challenge to the authority of the Hegemon and the gods, to the heretic powers of the last era's civilization?
No one knew more than him how terrifying the Chief Sovereign was. Even if it was the Great Emperor, if he wanted to fight against the Chief Sovereign, it would only be a joke; it was completely impossible.
But, would the 'Cessation Symbol' land on him, and the billions of golden lances and divine arts would be inherited by him? Let him inherit the glory of the gods and the glory of being their ruler? The gods have disappeared, and where is the Lord Ruler...
Was this predestined? Or was there a giant black hand manipulating everything behind the scenes?
Hegemon or some other mysterious existence?
