Chapter 70 Gu Tong

After returning from the auction house, Xiao Ya and a group of soldiers casting masters had just returned to the federation when they were stopped by a soldier casting apprentice.

"Master Gu Tong, the guild master, has left the customs. Please follow me now to pay a visit to Master Gu Tong. There is something important to announce." The soldier casting apprentice said after saluting.

"What, Master Gu Tong is out?"

"Master Gu Tong has been in seclusion for a long time, and he doesn't ask about affairs, why does he suddenly have a meeting and announce important things?"

A group of Armorsmiths followed and whispered to each other.However, Xiao Ya had already learned from Mu Zhi that Master Gu Tong was going to leave the customs in advance, so he was not surprised.

The second floor of the seven-story Bingzhu Tower where Gu Tong is located.

"Dear soldiers, for these years of retreat, I have been cultivating soul power and delving into the way of casting soldiers. Now I have reached the completion of the third-level soldier casting master, and 27 soul nodes have been lit up in the 'Liuzhu Palace'. Now I will return to Beiyuan City to seek opportunities for further breakthroughs. However, before leaving, there are still some matters within the Jianmu City Armoring Division Union that need to be dealt with, so I invite everyone to come."

Master Gu Tong's voice was low, his appearance was ancient and clumsy, although his beard and hair were grizzled, but sitting there, he had a demeanor that was not angry and majestic.The soldiers who forged soldiers did not dare to look at him for a long time, and they lowered their heads as soon as their eyes made contact.

After everyone was seated, Gu Tong first turned his attention to Shao Kang: "Master Shao Kang, when you just left the customs, you reported to me that Mu Yan's soldier division violated the rules. Now, you tell the whole story in front of everyone. face, let me tell you in detail."

As soon as these words came out, all the soldier casting masters were shocked.And Mu Yan's pretty face also showed surprise, and then she looked at Shao Kang, her eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Shao Kang's complexion changed slightly, he made a small report when Master Gu Tong just left the customs, just to secretly envy Yan.Unexpectedly, Master Gu Tong directly opened the matter to the sun, he was caught off guard and felt like a live fish being dried on the beach.

Although it was a little embarrassing to have his tricks broken, Shao Kang still stood up bravely.

"Master Gu Tong, what I want to sue is that Mu Yan's army casting division used power for personal gain, privately obtained second-level materials in the warehouse, and sold them to Hu Feng, a first-level army casting division!" Shao Kang gritted his teeth, "I'm responsible for this matter." The guard who guards the storehouse can testify."

"Huh?" Master Gu Tong looked at Mu Yan, "Mu Yan, is it true?"

Shao Kang was worried about Mu Yan's denial, so he rushed to say: "It's absolutely true, otherwise you can ask the guards to confront you."

"No need," Mu Yan said, "This matter is indeed true. However, the materials I sold to Hu Feng and the gold coins I collected are all clearly recorded in the federation's account books, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"Hmph, that's a good one! You sell the materials in your inventory to Hu Feng at the lowest basic price, and he resells them, of course he can earn the difference! Doing so is also at the expense of the public and private." Shao Kang said.

Master Gu Tong frowned slightly, his eyes scanned around: "Who is Hu Feng?"

Xiao Ya stood up straight, took a step forward: "I am."

"If what Shao Kang said is true, then it is true that you and Mu Yan conspired to sell inventory materials for profit. As the president, I will punish Mu Yan and expel you from the Federation .Do you have anything to say?"

Xiao Ya smiled slightly: "President Gu Tong, before this, I have a question: As a cooperative soldier casting master, if I need to use some materials when practicing casting soldiers, do I have the right to buy them from the warehouse at a fair price?" ?”

Gu Tong nodded slightly: "As long as it's not selling materials for profit, and it's for the way of building soldiers, this demand can be accommodated."

Xiao Ya nodded: "Then, I have a few questions. I would like to ask Shao Kang's soldier casting division. First, do you know how many times Mu Yan's soldier casting division has provided me with materials, and how much is it worth?"

Shao Kang snorted coldly and said: "The old man has transferred the account books from the warehouse and asked the guards, so he is very clear about this. In the past few months, Mu Yan has provided you with materials four times. Beast cores, earth spirit milk and other items, if calculated according to the market price, can be sold for at least [-] gold coins."

"[-] gold coins, the cost price is about half of the market price. According to your guess, I can earn [-] gold coins by reselling the materials these four times, which is indeed not a small number," Xiao Ya chuckled, "Then Let me ask Shao Kang the second question, Do you know how much I charge each time for the commissions I have received recently?"

Shao Kang's face changed slightly.Xiao Ya made a move every ten days, and the entrustment fee was hyped up by those adventurers, of course he had heard about it.Hearing Xiao Ya's question, he already guessed what Xiao Ya would say next.

Seeing that Shao Kang remained silent, Xiao Ya smiled slightly, and said loudly to everyone: "Two months ago, my soul power improved slightly, so I started to repair the second-level beast soul soldiers. The six commissions I received recently, The average amount of gold coins entrusted each time is about [-]. Although it is not a lot, you should be able to believe...the amount accused by Shao Kang's army casting division, which is a mere [-] gold coins, I have not paid attention to."

Among the crowd of the Armor Forge Division, there was a whisper.

"Master Hu Feng is right. Just because of his courage to throw [-] gold coins at the auction, I believe he can't see the [-] gold coins."

"Where is the profit of [-] gold coins? If what Master Shao Kang said is true, wouldn't Master Mu Yan want to share the profit? In the end, there should be only a few thousand gold coins. Hey, Shao Kang's soldier-casting master is ashamed to take out this little gold coin." accused."

If Xiao Ya hadn't stood up to fight against Shao Kang in the last Armament Masters exchange meeting, some of the unique secrets of the soldiers might have been forcibly shared.It was after that incident that everyone gradually stood on the opposite side of Shao Kang.

Moreover, Xiao Ya received the commission only ten days ago, which basically had no impact on the business of the other first-tier soldier casting divisions, and did not constitute any conflicts.

"No, Master Gu Tong, and fellow comrades, don't be fooled by him!" Seeing that the wind direction was wrong, Shao Kang said hastily, "If it wasn't for reselling materials, what would Hu Feng, as a Tier [-] soldier-casting master, buy Tier [-] materials? ?”

Xiao Ya smiled lightly: "Master Shao Kang, you're asking a funny question. Of course, I bought second-level materials for my own use."

"You're talking nonsense! It's impossible for a Tier [-] soldier-casting master to smelt Tier [-] materials, so you won't be able to use them at all!" Shao Kang said.

"Quiet!" Gu Tong tapped on the table lightly, and the discussions in the room stopped.He stroked his beard and asked, "Hu Feng, tell the truth to this old man... Are you really using those second-order materials for your own use?"

Xiao Ya nodded: "Master Gu Tong, I bought the second-tier materials in order to challenge the realm of the second-tier soldier-casting master."

"Hmph, I don't believe it! I'm still saying that, you can't smelt second-tier materials at all, so how can you hit the realm of second-tier soldier-casting masters? You want to cover it up!" Shao Kang said.

"Since Shao Kang doesn't believe it, it's better to test it on the spot," Xiao Ya said calmly, "If I can smelt the second-order material, I invite Shao Kang to apologize to Mu Yan respectfully and ask her to forgive me. Your fault for framing."

"This..." Shao Kang was stunned.If he loses and apologizes to Mu Yan, he will definitely lose face in the Army Foundry Association in the future.

Gu Tong glanced over: "Shao Kang Caster, what's wrong?"

Shao Kang took a breath, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, President Gu Tong, please be a witness, I bet this with Hu Feng, the soldier builder! If he successfully smelted the second-order material, then I apologize to Mu Yan; but Hu Feng If it cannot be done, please ask the president to make a fair judgment and expel him from the Armed Forces Federation!"

Gu Tong nodded slightly and said: "Of course it should be like this. The way to build a soldier lies in sincerity. Those who practice deception cannot gain a foothold in the Federation. Hu Feng, you should think about it."

Xiao Ya nodded: "I've made up my mind, please show me Master Gu Tong."

Gu Tong looked at Xiao Ya, who was neither humble nor overbearing, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. He reached out and took out a piece of white metal from the space container, and handed it to Xiao Ya, "This is the second-order material 'white steel ingot'. Among high-grade metals, it is relatively common. In the northeast corner of this floor, behind the black curtain is a casting furnace. Go, let me see your ability."

Everyone held their breaths, the situation is now very clear, if Xiao Ya can smelt white steel ingots, Shao Kang will be disgraced; if Xiao Ya fails, then he will only be expelled from the Union.

Xiao Ya lightly weighed the white steel ingot, walked quickly to the northeast corner, and pulled back the black curtain.A gray casting furnace stands quietly.

After checking the condition of the furnace and confirming that it was correct, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Ya held down the fire hole of the furnace with his left hand, poured blood into it, and started the process of lighting the fire.

Ten minutes later, the crackling sound ended and flames rose.

"Hehe, how dare a flame of this level boast about melting second-order materials?" Shao Kang put his heart back into his stomach, and mocked contemptuously.

Mu Yan's face was a bit ugly, she could also see that Xiao Ya used blood energy to turn fire, the temperature of the flame was not bad for a first-level soldier-casting master, but it was still far from smelting second-level materials.

Suddenly, with the finger of Xiao Ya's right hand, he tapped lightly between his eyebrows, and a trace of red soul power penetrated into the furnace.

"Using blood as firewood, using soul power as a guide...explode fire!"
