“Why did you use such terrible materials?” Mo Leng’s tone of voice was filled with displease, anger surfaced in his eyes, to him, such an outstanding design, how could it use such terrible materials?
Sai Lei explained, “Consideration of manufacturing costs. ThunderSnow’s manufacturing cost is 4.5 million star coins, and the most bulk of it, our Black Gold, is worth 2.5 million, all the other materials, cost about 2 million.”
To protect their secret, Sai Lei termed Corvus Gold as Black Gold, with just a different name, many people had difficulty guessing it out.
“2 Million star coins?” Mo Leng immediately touched his beard and widened his eyes. “You actually used only 2 million star coins to create the body of a mechanical weapon!”
Mo Wei Tian’s attention was attracted to the term “Black Gold” Sai Lei used. “What is Black Gold?”
“A metal that can replace the Spirit Jade.” Sai Lei was already waiting for it.
“Spirit Jade!” Mo Leng was immediately attracted to Sai Lei’s words, a bright essence immediately filling his eyes. “Does this mechanical weapon have a martial spirit?”
“Your eyes are powerful!” Sai Lei praised Mo Leng in one sentence, she knew how to converse properly with Grandmaster Mo Leng, and spoke frankly with a.s.surance, “I have always been thinking, how could I create a real strong mechanical weapon. The current generation of mechanical weapons, compared to the era of the Three Great Armies, has declined for so long, our current mechanical weapons, compared to the Southern Cross Generation’s mechanical weapons, are so far apart. Why?”
These words, pierced Mo Leng’s heart, he was hailed as a machine grandmaster engineer, and was completely aware of the decline of mechanical weapons, and it was an all rounded decline. Every machine engineer shouted out that they wanted to revive the mechanical technique, but until now, they had not seen any signs of the revival of mechanical techniques.
Other than the ugly Blood Meridians Weapons.
“Because the era is different. In the era of the Three Great Armies, the martial techniques system were vague and indistinct, the understanding of martial spirits were merely scratching the surface, by borrowing the power of machines, it exponentially increased the power of people. But currently, the growth of martial technique systems is at its peak, the study and research of martial spirits are increasing everyday, everyone is practising and cultivating, and have become even more capable and have more progress, and are diving deeper into power. What about us machine engineers? We only harp and keep onto old things, the glorious past, were all in the past, and have no connection to us, only the future and the present is ours to change.”
A pa.s.sionate fire was burning in Sai Lei’s eyes, like a dancing blaze.
“So for our era, what kind of mechanical weapon do we need? Everyone will say it should be strong, but what kind of mechanical weapon is a strong mechanical weapon? My understanding is, a sufficiently intellectual mechanical weapon, a smart tool, will always be more welcomed by a strong tool.”
“Mechanical weapons are not tools!” Mo Leng retorted with displeasure.
Sai Lei did not wish to bicker with Mo Leng about that, and directly asked, “Why? Because the current martial techniques are too strong, with all the different types of martial techniques, they are able to satisfy the demands of the people, if the power is not enough, there are star treasures. So what can our mechanical weapons have to compete? My understanding is to aid, to aid in training and cultivation, to aid in fighting, we can increase the power of releasing True Power, we can let martial artists use martial techniques they have never learned before, but all of it requires the mechanical weapon to be sufficiently intelligent enough, to be deft enough. If not, in this era that the martial techniques are flourishing, mechanical weapons do not have any s.p.a.ce to exist!”
Pa Pa Pa!
Mo Wei Tian could not help but clap his hands, and praise, “After so many years, that is the most insightful exposition I have ever heard. With that exposition, you can already be hailed as a grandmaster.”
Sai Lei was not the least bit modest, she raised her delicate and beautiful face, along with a thread of pride. “I already am a grandmaster!”
Mo Wei Tian and Mo Leng trembled.
The meaning those words carried, caused the both of them to ponder.
Mo Wei Tian’s eyes flickered, but laughed. “Seems like the two of you came here prepared, I think that the reason you two are here, is not to speak to us about your expositions.”
Sai Lei blatantly replied, “That’s right, I am here to market the Black Gold to the Mo Family.”
Mo Wei TIan was taken aback, he did not think that they would actually be here to market the black gold. He muttered, “Young lady Sai Lei’s exposition is marvelous, ThunderSnow is very strong, but our Mo Family does not know about this technique…”
Sai Lei continued generously, “Of course, I have prepared the ThunderSnow design plans to sell to the Mo Family as well.”
Both Mo Wei TIan and Mo Leng shuddered, as they looked at each other. Mo Wei Tian immediately understood Mo Leng’s eye language, do not hesitate to buy it all!
But, Mo Wei Tian was well versed in doing business, without a change in emotions. “Of course, we would wish to have ThunderSnow’s designs…”
Sai Lei suddenly cut into Mo Wei tian’s words, “In our hands we have roughly 5 billion worth of Black Gold, and for ThunderSnow design plans, we are not stopping at your family, we will be selling it to the Zhang Family, the Bronze Tribe, Iron Mist City, Fornax Constellation and the other families.”
Mo Wei Tian’s eyes twitched, The Zhang Family was Zhang Zhi Mo’s family, and the other families were also famous powers who dealt with mechanical techniques.
“We came to the Mo Family first, because we have sincerity towards you. If you raise the manufacturing cost of ThunderSnow to 6 million star coins, then ThunderSnows battle prowess will greatly increase. The perfect ThunderSnow design plan is meant for sixth level martial artists to use. With our Black Gold, you can create 1000 sets of Thundersnow!”
1000 sets of Thundersnow, that number caused Mo Wei Tian and Mo Leng to suck in cold air.
Mo Wei TIan was firm, and without wavering he instantly said, “The 5 billion worth of Black Gold, we want all of it!”
Tang Tian and Sai Lei looked at each other, both of them going wild with joy.
“For the ThunderSnow design plans, I will ask for 200 million!” Mo Wei Tian said decisively.
Sai Lei was stunned, she initially only wanted 10 million starcoins for the ThunderSnow design plans. Although her plans were outstanding, the route for the martial spirits, was still very new. But as long as her mechanical weapons entered the market, very quickly there would be imitations that would appear. To mechanical grandmaster engineers, those low-end techniques, were just a thin layer of compet.i.tors.
“But I have a request!” Mo Wei Tian said upright, “I need one year of time! In that one year, you cannot sell this in any aspect to the other powers.”
Sai Lei and Tang Tian suddenly realized, Mo Wei Tian was thinking of swallowing everything, to seize the moment.
Do not look down on the duration of one year, Mo Leng who was a machine grandmaster engineer in the Mo Family, if he had Sai Lei’s mechanical techniques, they could completely release their own brand new mechanical weapons. 200 million for one year of time, even for Sai Lei, she had to admit with respect towards Mo Wei Tian’s resolution.
“Ok!” Sai Lei agreed.
5.2 billion star coins!
To Tang Tian and Sai Lei, that was a huge paycheck, enough for them to buy a remote planet. Tang Tian and Sai Lei were utterly speechless on the Mo Family’s robust financial resources, 5.2 billion star coins without blinking an eye, it was a huge sum of money.
With the agreement, regardless of Tang Tian and Sai Lei or Mo Wei TIan and Mo Leng, all of them exposed happy smiles. Mo Wei Tian could tell that Sai Lei and Tang Tian were not planning on ma.s.s selling when they approached them about the Black Gold. Mo Leng was revolving around ThunderSnow, he was enchanted by ThunderSnow. Now knowing that ThunderSnow had a martial spirit, he could see more worth in it. In his heart, he was secretly surprised, Sai Lei herself claimed that she was also a grandmaster; he did not believe her initially, but now, he did not doubt it at all.
“You do not plan to do business in making mechanical weapons?” Mo Wei Tian glanced at Sai Lei, if they wanted to start a business on producing mechanical weapons, they definitely would not sell the black gold.
Sai Lei shook her head. “We are not interested in doing any business.”
Mo Wei Tian did not ask any further, many machine grandmaster engineers were all addicted to research and development, and were not interested in the business world.
He decided to change the topic, “This brand new type of mechanical weapons, is completely different from the old mechanical weapons, why not give it a new name too.”
Sai Lei thought for a while, and said, “Why not call them mechanical spirit weapons.”
“Mechanical spirit weapons… mechanical spirit weapons…” Mo Leng repeated the name, nodding in his head in approval. “That name is very fitting.”
Mo Wei Tian clapped his hands: “Good! Mechanical Spirit Weapons! That is a good name!”
Suddenly, a few sounds came from outside the door, and everyone’s face changed.
Tang Tian immediately appeared beside Sai Lei, pushing her to his back for protection.
Creak.
The door of the warehouse opened, amidst the strong light that came in, a figure slowly walked towards them.
Mo Wei Tian’s expression became very bad, the guards outside, were hired by using a large sum of money, and in such a short time, they were actually beaten by this one person, whose strength was unknown.
Upon seeing the incoming person’s appearance, Tang Tian was shocked.
The person’s entire body had dense gra.s.s covering all over him, bundled up tightly, exposing only his ruthless looking eyes.
“[Scarecrow], Mu Zi!”
Mo Wei Tian was shocked, his face exposing panic, face color becoming pale white.
“Mo Family Patriarch has good eye.” The sharp voice came out from within the gra.s.s, the thick abundance of gra.s.s, covering his entire body, actually looked like hair.
“Relax, I won’t kill you.”
Scarecrow’s green eyes landed on Tang Tian and Sai Lei, and said casually, “I want to kill those two.”
Mo Wei Tian was stunned, but he was very sharp, and immediately guessed. “You’re from the Blood Weapons Group?”
“Knowing too much is not good for The Patriarch.” Scarecrow slowly warned him.
“This is Ink City! You dare to kill my guests in front of me! Very good, is this how the Blood Weapons Group works?” Mo Wei Tian’s was very dark.
“That is right, this is how the Blood Weapons Group works.” Scarecrow did not bother, as the dense gra.s.s fluttered with the wind.
Mo Wei Tian’s face changed, Scarecrow was completely ignoring him, this was basically killing the chicken to warn the monkey.
“You look so weird!”
Just as Mo Wei Tian was wracking his brain thinking of how to protect the two persons, Tang Tian spoke out without thinking, causing him to freeze. a.s.shole, at this time, you actually dare to aggravate the opponent…
“Scarecrow Mu Zi, Heaven Road List ranked 9856, or was it 9853?” Tang Tian rubbed his forehead, his face drawing a confused look.
“Hmmm?” Scarecrow was stunned, his steps stopped in place.
The opponent knows him…
Scarecrow instantly raised his head and looked at Tang Tian, that puzzled look on his face, showed no signs of fear.
His pupils instantly dilated.
Just at this moment, Tang Tian laughed out loud, exposing his straight set of white teeth, and said without thinking.
“After defeating you, my ranking will probably increase!”
