Dark Fairy

Chapter 246
Bailang's mind is never rigid and only preoccupied with the matter in front of him or in his hands. Instead, he habitually makes his own predictions about the current situation, and then puts all relevant things in front of him as much as possible.This is a habit you must have if you want to get ahead as a social animal.Now being brought to another world by him, it still applies.

I used to be a social animal, but now I work in a knife studio.

Bailang sometimes feels that compared to the life-and-death calculations in the knife shop, social animals are actually having a good life.At least I don't worry about dying in a street corner someday.

In the past, when Tang Yanding was in front, Bailang still felt that the knife shop was a mess, and there were not many relationships that needed to be taken care of and considered, and it was not difficult to figure it out in his head.But now, after sitting on the seat of the saber, it happened that Hong Chao's south was facing a military disaster, and the people in the country were panic-stricken.This multiplied Bailang's daily calculations several times.

Feeling tired is not something I say casually.

On the one hand is the great convenience of the industrial park, which is closely related to the black market wharf business that Bailang is currently holding, and the retreat of the Daomen Village planned in the Yuzhong Mountain Range, all of which are closely related to the industrial park.At the same time, Bailang's ability to sit on the side of the industrial park is subject to the control of the city lord's mansion of Yongchuan City.In addition, Bailang needs to take into account the changes in power in Yongchuan City, so he can't offend the "newcomer" Liu Jianyu's subordinates before it becomes clear.Otherwise, God knows whether the mere "chamber" will be smashed directly?
In this intricate relationship, Bailang has always been cautious, and will try to do some tricks to leverage his strength.

For example, the industrial park itself was deliberately thrown out by Bailang, and he used the huge model advantages of the industrial park to help him establish a reputation, and then used this reputation to continue to reap benefits.Even the position where he can sit behind him has a lot to do with the existence of the industrial park.

If the industrial park were to be managed by an outsider, Bailang knew very well that his position would be dealt a devastating blow.The black market and other businesses that are attached to the industrial park will all die.Moreover, once the industrial park became dirty, Bailang felt that he would even be used as a punching bag by Feng Mingyuan, and his fate would be equally worrisome.

Therefore, there cannot be any major changes in the industrial park, at least on the surface.This is the basis of all calculations for Bailang.

Secondly, Bailang needs to be more careful.He doesn't want to be a chamber pot, so he needs to use his strength to fight.While stabilizing the City Lord's Mansion, new reliance, or a new source of leverage is also needed.

Now there is only one that can challenge the City Lord's Mansion in Yongchuan City: Liu Jianyu's department.

When leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Zhou Zhonghao handed Bailang another [Xiao Pei Yuan Pill].It seems that Feng Mingyuan finally has the consciousness of "distinct rewards and punishments".And he also drew a big cake for Bailang, saying that if Bailang defends the industrial park for a month, he will give Bailang a pill, either [Strong Bone Pill] or [Xiao Peiyuan Pill].

The elixir must be a good thing that Bailang will always come to, but it is not the biggest gain of his visit to the City Lord's Mansion this time.

"Zudao, are you looking for me?"

After Bailang returned to Masheng Lane, he immediately had someone call Liu Xu over.Then all the attendants in the small courtyard were screened back.This is something important to talk about.

"Master Liu, are those big crossbows in use now?"

"It's been used. But it's only used for training. After use, it's all taken back and stored in the dark room of the warehouse. In the sword hall, apart from you and I who know about this, only Yang Xiu and the people who actually participated in the crossbow training Those newcomers know.

According to Yang Xiu, those newcomers are all under strict control, they are all lonely orphans, they can be assured of loyalty, and they are willing to go through this troubled water with the knife shop. "

"How effective is the training?"

"Not bad, they are all talented seedlings. It is not difficult to use a large crossbow, and we don't pursue the maximum range of damage, as long as we can shoot accurately at medium and short distances. So now the coach in charge of training said that there are almost The level of [-]% of the veterans of Zhongda Crossbow. Continue to practice later, and you can get it in two months at most."

"What about the poison you were asked to find before? Can you find enough of it?"

"This knife, the kind of poison that can paralyze Qi practitioners is too expensive and too little. It is said that it was squeezed out of the dregs of alchemy. You can't buy it through ordinary channels. The quantity received now is no more than Three to five catties, if you want to use it tightly with dozens of large crossbows, you can only last one or two rounds, which is simply unsustainable."

"I heard that there are some channels that can buy more?"

The matter of poisoning the crossbow had been in Bailang's consideration from the very beginning.Otherwise, although the lethality of the big crossbow itself is considerable, it is not enough to cause fatal injuries to Qi trainers in the middle or late stage of Qi Entraining Realm and above.Need some support.And poisoning the arrow is the most direct and convenient choice.

Ordinary poisons may not be effective for Qi practitioners, even if they are effective, the effect will be sharply reduced due to physical strength or spiritual energy.Therefore, a special poison is needed to ensure the poison effect when used against Qi practitioners.

"There are no ordinary channels, but maybe you can try it in the black market. It's just that the recent wartime bans have been everywhere, and the black market has disappeared. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain anything."

Liu Xu didn't know about the black market in Bailang's hands.So it is very difficult to speak.After all, the black market is already vain, and many black market channels accessible to knife shops also disappeared after Liu Jianyu's troops arrived in Yongchuan City and hid them.

"The dregs of alchemy? Black market?" Bailang thought about it as soon as he thought about it.

Others may only rely on "information channels" and countless black or white "intermediaries" to maintain the operation of the black market.With the gradual rise of military disasters in the Hong Dynasty, the living space of channels and intermediaries will be infinitely squeezed.In other words, it will naturally squeeze the size of the black market.

But these didn't have much impact on Bailang.He holds the pier in his hand, he does not need to rely on black market channels or middlemen, as the owner of the trading platform of the black market around Yongchuan City, he collects passing money, and also handles buyers and sellers.

"What's the name of that poison?"

"If you go back to the seat knife, it's called "hemp pulp"."

"Okay, you keep asking about these things, and stock up if you have them on sale, don't be afraid of being expensive. In addition, you can go to a darkroom warehouse, or if there is enough space in the previous darkroom, it's fine. Go tomorrow evening Go to the industrial park and look for the Zhou family iron number, they will give you some armor, you can transport it back and put it in the dark room for safekeeping, and put a seal on it, and you are not allowed to open it without permission."

"Bing Jia?!" Liu Xu suppressed his voice and even went out of tune.You can see the horror in his heart.

A leather armor is a leather armor, and a soldier armor is a soldier armor. Only those inlaid with fish scale plates and heart mirrors are called soldier armor. This thing is an ordnance more important than a crossbow, which is equivalent to giving ordinary people an extra chance of life.

Has the city lord's mansion even started sending such things to the knife hall now? !
