Supreme Lord of the Earth - C280
Gu Tian laughed, and spoke loudly on purpose: “Clan Master Mu, long time no see! How have you been? ”
Squeak!
The door to the courtyard was pushed open, and a rough looking muscular man appeared by the door, holding onto a beautiful lady who had been invited back from an unknown brothel. The young lady looked at Gu Tian and Meng Kang, not the least bit shy or flirtatious.
The brawny man moaned, “I say, who is so bold as to barge into my yard!? So it was the Young Master Gu! You came to me empty-handed, what business do you have? ”
Gu Tian cupped his fists at the sturdy man and said: “Clan Master Mu, we have not known each other for one or two days! I want to participate in Heaven work competition, and I want to ask you to help me borrow a few master craftsman s! ”
“Heaven work competition?”
Sect Master Mu was startled at first, his eyes quickly thought a few times, then he shrugged his shoulders and laughed: “Young Master Gu, with our friendship, this kind of thing is nothing, but you came at a very unfortunate time! All of the master craftsman s in our sect were invited to leave by the Wu family at a high price.
Once he said that, Gu Tian’s face immediately became ugly.
This was more than enough to be considered a big gang in the city, but it was nothing in the eyes of the entire Big Halberd Dynasty.
There were a few master craftsman s in the gang who were skilled, but occasionally, they would forge a sword with good quality. If it was in the past, they would have to treat a big client like Gu Tian with comfort and care, and would not dare to complain at all.
But now, it was clear that they were not willing to cooperate. Regardless of whether what he said was true or not, in Gu Tian’s opinion, they did not give any face!
“Clan Master Mu, you know about my, Gu Tian’s, character. If you help me at this time, I will remember it! If your master craftsman s are unable to help, can you help a few first-tier blacksmiths, or even a second-tier blacksmith, to help me? I am willing to pay three times the salary to help! ”
These words of Gu Tian’s, was already enough to lower himself!
He thought about this request. The other party wouldn’t refuse, right?
Although Level 1 Blacksmith could not be said to be everywhere in Shanghai City, there were at least a few hundred of them. With their connections and connections, they could easily find a dozen to do the work.
Sect Master Mu was silent for a moment. Then, he waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to retreat out of the courtyard.
After a while, only Sect Master Mu, Gu Tian, and Meng Kang were left in the courtyard.
“Young Master Gu! We can be considered friends who have known each other for many years. Don’t make things difficult for me anymore! We can definitely find a level one blacksmith, but we don’t dare, and we can’t find anything for you either! ”
They were afraid that if they were to help Gu Tian now, the Gu Clan would take action against them in the future. In other words, they did not think that Gu Tian would win against Gu Fengyun and his son, and did not dare bet on them.
This man was like a dead pig that was unafraid of boiling water, there was no point in arguing with him, Gu Tian and Meng Kang could only leave.
After a while, Gu Tian was still unconvinced, he ran over a few more, all of them were his friends who he had helped before, but these people were either trying to avoid him, or trying to evade him by avoiding him, or using all kinds of excuses and being careful, but none of them were willing to lend Gu Tian their blacksmiths.
A cold world, a warm human heart!
Gu Tian didn’t show himself for the past half year and he felt that the entire Shanghai City had changed in appearance.
“What should we do? The words had already been said! Right now, we can’t find anyone to help us, and we still lack half of the deposit. No wonder so many people don’t think well of us.
Gu Tian said as he shook his head with a dejected look.
Meng Kang thought for a while, then lightly patted his shoulder and said: “Don’t be discouraged! The matter was not that difficult to resolve! The point is that you have to change your way of thinking! ”
“What do you mean?”
Gu Tian was normally the most convinced of the Big Brother, but when he heard him say this, he immediately became spirited.
Meng Kang pointed to himself and laughed: “And me! I can team up with you! If you do not have enough manpower, there are still people in medical school, Xiao Yuan and the others can do it!
Gu Tian smiled bitterly, nodded with understanding, and laughed: “Alright! But you are not artisans! ”
Meng Kang laughed: “Are you stupid! The Great Void Fortress has so many blacksmiths, do you think the blacksmiths in the Liuhuo City are worse than the Shang Jing? Humans and demi-humans … there shouldn’t be more than a thousand of them! What are you worrying about? ”
Gu Tian thought for a while, then suddenly realized something, and laughed: That’s right! I can use the sariras to discuss with them. Worse comes to worse, I can just waste some demonic power and take back the item I made during the teleportation! ”
“Un, as long as I cover up for a bit, there shouldn’t be a big problem!” Furthermore, the materials on Great Void Fortress are piled like a mountain, you don’t even need to ask for help! ”
Meng Kang said indifferently.
“Sigh!” Why didn’t you say so earlier! You made me run into walls everywhere, and it seems like you’ve been watching all this time just for a joke! ”
Gu Tian said happily.
Meng Kang shrugged his shoulders, and laughed: “That’s not it either! If you go around begging others, then it’s our strategy to confuse the enemy! Ten days later, give them a big surprise! ”
At night, in the backyard of Gu’s’s residence.
This manor was not small, and included a large section of a mountain. On the mountain, there were flowing water, vigorous ancient trees, and a myriad of qi images.
Halfway up the mountain, in the pavilion, Gu Fengyun and his adopted son stood shoulder to shoulder, looking at Feng Yue.
Gu Fengyun’s gaze was deep and distant, as if he could see through the layers of pitch-black night sky, and his expression was solemn.
On the other hand, Gu Longyin who was standing beside him still had a beaming smile on his face, he was fiddling with the Imperial Sword in his hand, his body was brimming with energy, he looked like an ordinary scholar.
“Longyin, I received a report. Gu Tian is begging everywhere in the Shanghai City, and he can’t even gather a decent amount of resources from a blacksmith, let alone a large amount of resources from a blacksmith. What exactly are you trying to do by pulling him over to the Heaven work competition?”
Gu Fengyun asked.
Gu Longyin was still playing with the sword in his hand, without even raising his head, he smiled and said: “Because I want to find out what trump card he has! Do you think that he found a cave with no one to hide in? ”
“The Doctor Meng beside him is a powerful character. He can’t just stand by and watch. A mere Heaven work competition could see many things! Furthermore, I have always suspected that the failure and failure of Upper Clarity Moon Palace in these past few years all have something to do with that Doctor Meng. ”
“If Gu Tian doesn’t have any potential and makes a fool of himself in the competition, then he won’t be able to pose any threat in the future. If he succeeds in turning the tables around, as long as there are clues, our Upper Clarity Moon Palace’s Law Enforcement Squadron will be waiting to take action! With our cooperative relationship with the Divine Empress, destroying Gu Tian and the Doctor Meng is just a flick of a finger as long as we have evidence. ”
Gu Longyin explained with a smile.
Gu Fengyun took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that he was already old, the juniors were all deep in thought, with just a single movement, they were all gone.
“Long Yin, after this is done, I want to take a look at your younger brother.”
Gu Fengyun said indifferently.
Gu Longyin smiled and pulled out half of the sword blade.
“Love between a father and his son is a common thing in the human world. It’s not a problem to want to see your son, but it will depend on how you perform in this mission!”
Gu Longyin replied softly.
Gu Fengyun’s body trembled, and he could only nod his head in humiliation.
In front of this foster son, Yue Yang did not dare to have any dissatisfaction, because his real son was sent to the Upper Clarity Moon Palace when he was still a baby.
“Oh, yes! I have already invited eight drops of ancient nectar s from the palace to feed him. When you have free time, remember to donate several tens of thousands of gold taels to the palace to prevent those who do not work from constantly talking about it, as if I have benefited greatly from your Gu family! ”
Gu Longyin instructed casually, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Gu Fengyun could only nod his head, he did not dare disobey.
If he had known back then that cooperating with the Upper Clarity Moon Palace was akin to working with a tiger, and ended up like this, he would have died even if he was to give up such a huge family business to Gu Tian. He would not have done such a foolish thing!
Gu Fengyun recalled the night when he had decided to cooperate with them half a year ago, and what he had left behind was only deep regret.
