Chapter 472 I’m sure of you
After understanding this, Xuanyuan Lie no longer dared to show off in front of Gu Chan, so he could only admit it.
"I did something wrong yesterday. Can't I admit my mistake to you? Stop blowing up. I can't stand it anymore."
"Tch! I thought you were so tough. It's nothing more than that," Gu Chan said disdainfully.
After saying that, she looked at the people behind her and ordered, "Okay, push this thing back! Then make me another cannon, and then each of these hundred cannons will It has to be of better quality than this first cannon.”
"Yes, Shopkeeper Gu." Everyone agreed in unison.
Then, led by Qin Muyang, they pushed the cannon and left.
Wan Peng stayed where he was, listening to Gu Chan's instructions at any time.
Gu Chan called the host who was pale with fright and said, "Don't look sad. Don't worry, I won't blow up your temple in vain. I will pay you one hundred thousand taels of silver, which is enough." If you improve the temple, you can also improve the food for everyone."
"Thank you, shopkeeper Gu," the host said with a smile.
He didn't expect that Gu Chan would be so generous!
Originally, even if a small temple like Lingjiu Temple was blown up like this, it would not cost a hundred thousand taels of silver to cultivate good deeds, right? Isn't it obvious that Gu Chan is the God of Wealth who gives money?
When he was happy, he even said to Gu Chan with a smile, "Shopkeeper Gu, if not, after I finish the repair, you can bring people to blow it up. You can blow it up as many times as you want. "
"Haha...forget it, one time is enough. My money is not brought by the strong wind. One hundred thousand taels of silver is still a bit too much to bear." Gu Chan laughed. explain.
The host laughed loudly, said no more, and quickly took the people back to the temple to clean up.
Gu Chan turned to Wan Peng and said, "Go to Wan Yuanfang immediately, pick up a hundred thousand taels of silver and hand it over to the host. We can't delay this money."
"Okay Brother Gu, then I'm going." Wan Peng nodded.
After saying that, he quickly mounted his horse and went to Wan Yuanfang to get the banknote.
The two men stayed behind and helped Gu Chan walk to Bai Jingtian and others.
Bai Jingtian suppressed his anger and said, "What kind of weapon is this that is so powerful?"
"This is called a cannon. It is a newly developed weapon by me. It is much more powerful than a spear on the battlefield." Gu Chan said proudly.
"Then you can't use it to blow up our master!" Bai Jingtian said helplessly.
Gu Chan had an idea and said, "I already told you that this is a big gift for him. Why do you still look unhappy? If it were me, I would have jumped up with joy."< br>
"You almost blew me up to death, why should I be happy?" Xuanyuan Lie got off Bai Jingtian's back and glared at Gu Chan angrily and roared.
Gu Chan said with a bad smile, "Think about it, this Jiangnan area is your fiefdom, right? If the soldiers in your fiefdom are equipped with these new weapons, you will be invincible in the Tiancang Kingdom in the future. Who dares to fight with you? And with this thing, even if you lead the soldiers to attack another country, you have at least a 70% chance of winning!"
"Hiss... That's right! If this thing is put on the battlefield, wouldn't it really be an invincible opponent in the world?" Xuanyuan Lie was startled at first, then he reached out and touched his chin and secretly hissed. stand up.
He had personally experienced the power of the cannon just now. Such a big temple was destroyed after being hit by twenty or thirty cannons. So if the cannonball hit a crowd, it wouldn't be possible with just one shot. Can it blow up a bunch of people?
With this thing, the Jiangnan area will be stable! At that time, even the prince would not dare to provoke him lightly.
Thinking like this, Xuanyuan Lie lost his temper in an instant, and immediately reached out and patted Gu Chan on the shoulder and said, "Okay, seeing that you have done a good job in presenting the treasure, I won't argue with you today." "No, we have a baby. Let me tell you, the cost of making these cannons is not cheap, at least 10 million taels of silver each. I just asked them to build a hundred cannons, so you can give me at least one billion taels of silver." Gu Chan crossed her arms and said.
"Okay! You got the money from me, you are really smart!" Xuanyuan Lie's smile disappeared and his face turned gloomy again.
Gu Chan sneered and said, "Just tell me whether you want to buy it or not! If you don't buy it, I will sell it to the prince. Anyway, I will use all the money to help the border. I believe the prince must have tens of millions." I'm willing to buy it."
"Okay, okay, even if I'm afraid of you, I'll buy your hundred cannons." Xuanyuan Lie waved his hand quickly.
No matter what, he cannot let such a powerful weapon fall into the hands of the prince!
Gu Chan reached out to him directly and said, "Pay the money first, then deliver the goods. No credit."
"You..." Xuanyuan Lie was speechless in anger.
Bai Jingtian quickly smoothed things over and said, "Gu Chan, don't be so hasty. This one billion taels of silver is not a small amount. The master will not be able to get it in a while, so you have to give him time to prepare!"
"Okay, I'll give you three days to prepare. The one billion taels of silver must be delivered to the eldest son of the Chang family, Chang Wei, within three days, otherwise there will be no waiting. Anyway, there will be more people who want to buy my stuff in the future. You are the only one left." Gu Chan said with her hand back.
Bai Jingtian nodded in agreement.
Gu Chan didn't want to pay attention to them anymore and ordered her two men to help her turn around and leave.
Xuanyuan Lie stood there, watching her leaving back and cursing secretly, "Bitch, one day I will have to kill you."
"Master, don't be so excited. He seems to have something in his mind. It will be very beneficial to you to stabilize the Jiangnan area, increase your combat power, and seize the throne. You'd better win over him, otherwise he will fall to your side. Prince, I'm afraid your life will be difficult then," Bai Jingtian reminded him at the right moment.
Xuanyuan Lie took a long breath, temporarily suppressed his inner anger, and could only choose to endure it.
He also admitted that what Bai Jingtian said was not wrong at all. At this juncture, he could not make any mistakes in the Jiangnan area, so he could only stabilize Gu Chan for the time being, so as not to cause Gu Chan to get hurt. Causing him a lot of trouble will do him a lot of harm but nothing good.
Thinking like this, Xuanyuan Lie said no more, and immediately left Lingjiu Temple with Bai Jingtian and several imperial guards, and rushed to the Yushi Mansion to find Yan Xishan.
At dusk in the afternoon.
When Gu Chan returned to Wan Yuanfang to rest, Wan Peng came to Lingjiu Temple with a hundred thousand taels of silver notes and gave them to the host.
The host was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear after getting so much money.
Wan Peng stared at him and asked, "Host, can you tell me, who is the young man who has a grudge against Brother Gu?"
"Donor Wan, I advise you. Just tell me, don’t ask if you shouldn’t ask, and just do your own thing.” The host stopped his smile and said with a serious face.
"It seems that this person's identity is not simple!" Wan Peng said solemnly.
The host glanced at him, said no more, and led the people to carry the cash box away.
Wan Peng could only walk away silently, not daring to ask any further questions.
