From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 169 The Original Road to Industrial Development

"Xiao San, Xiyao would like to ask you for a favor." said the master.

Hearing this, Tang San turned his gaze to Leng Xiyao.

Tang San and Leng Xiyao have always had a very good relationship. On the one hand, Leng Xiyao would always think of him whenever something good happened, and on the other hand, he also had a good impression of this extraordinary woman, Leng Xiyao.

Of course, as a good boy with very simple emotions, it is impossible for Tang San to fall in love with someone else. This kind of affection is just appreciation between ordinary friends.

"It's like this. I heard that your blacksmithing skills are extremely superb, Tang San. I need your help." Leng Xiyao called Tang San for a simple reason, that is, she believed in Tang San's blacksmithing skills: "I need to create a product with very complex technology."

The Tang family has made their fortune by blacksmithing for generations, and Tang San also possesses the Tang Sect's skills in making hidden weapons. Leng Xiyao believes that he must be the best craftsman she can find at the moment.

If he wanted to imitate a siege tank, Ariel would help him with the design, but Tang San would have to be the one to make the actual components.

The complexity of the Tang Sect's various hidden weapons is truly extraordinary, and the metals forged from local high-grade minerals may not be worse than the composite metals of the interstellar era. Therefore, Leng Xiyao believes that Tang San can do the job.

As long as the firepower is sufficient, the defense capability is certain, and it can be started, it doesn't matter if there is no fire control system and transformation module.

"I see." Hearing Leng Xiyao's words, Tang San was also somewhat moved: "So when do we set off?"

As a blacksmith fanatic, Tang San is naturally very interested in this kind of thing. Moreover, Leng Xiyao is so fond of it, so it must not be a simple thing.

This made it impossible for Tang San, the crazy blacksmith, to find any reason to refuse.

"Let's go the day after tomorrow. I have to attend an auction tomorrow. There are things I want here." Leng Xiyao thought for a moment and said:
"After this, Xiao San will be borrowed by me for a few weeks. Master, you don't mind, right?"

Leng Xiyao's words seemed like a question, but her tone left no room for doubt.

"Of course not. Remember to be safe." The master nodded and did not refuse. Although the competition was approaching, there were still nearly three months left, so there was no need to worry about missing a month of special training.

After spending a few months with Liu Erlong, the master also knew Leng Xiyao's background. She was not the kind of person who didn't know her own limits. If she wanted to borrow Tang San away at this time, she must have her own reasons.

Not far away, Ning Fengzhi was whispering to Ning Rongrong. Chen Xin and Gu Rong stood aside, blocking Leng Xiyao's sight.

A moment later, Ning Fengzhi came out, looking as if nothing had happened.

"Nephew, are you going to that auction too?" Ning Fengzhi asked with interest after hearing what everyone was discussing.

Hearing this, Leng Xiyao was not surprised. Tomorrow's auction would be quite large, and Ning Fengzhi would definitely participate.

"Yes, I have something I must buy. I wonder if Uncle Ning has any advice for me?"

Ning Fengzhi looked at Leng Xiyao, then at Qin Menglan who was holding her hand, and roughly understood.

However, Ning Fengzhi did not mention the matter, but smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that this auction is a grand event that all parties will participate in, and most of the items on sale are extraordinary. I suggest that you go and take a look, Xiaosan, maybe you will get something unexpected."

Tang San thought about it, he now has a lot of hidden weapons in stock, even if he doesn't buy anything, it would be good to sell a few pieces and get more money.

Thinking of this, he was also somewhat tempted.

"Let's go together. I happen to have two invitations here. It says that each invitation can bring three people. Whoever wants to join in the fun can go with us." Leng Xiyao smiled and took out the two invitations that Mr. Li had given her earlier and waved them twice.

Looking at the two invitation letters and the names of the signatories on them, Ning Fengzhi's face suddenly became solemn, and he obviously thought of something.

After thinking of a certain possibility, Ning Fengzhi could no longer sit still: "In that case, let's meet at the Tiandou Auction House tomorrow, nephew, don't forget the deal we just made."

"Of course not. As soon as the craftsman arrives, two thousand guns will be delivered immediately." Leng Xiyao still had that smiling expression on her face.

"That's good. Rongrong, don't act like a spoiled brat in Shrek Academy. Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, let's go." Ning Fengzhi nodded, and after giving Ning Rongrong a lecture with a stern face, he left with Gu Rong and Chen Xin.

Looking at their backs, Ning Rongrong made a face and didn't take her father's teachings to heart at all.

Then, Ning Rongrong blushed and whispered to Leng Xiyao, "Sister Yaoyao, my father just told me to take you home to visit when I have time."

Leng Xiyao thought about it and realized that the elixirs she asked Tang San to bring back last time were actually the varieties in the original work. In this case, Ning Rongrong's martial soul should have mutated.

No wonder Ning Fengzhi made such a big fuss to come here. I guess his main purpose was to see his precious daughter.

But why didn't he bring Ning Rongrong home when he came? Could it be that Ning Rongrong was hiding it and didn't tell Ning Fengzhi directly?
"The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect? I'd like to visit it when I'm done with my busy schedule." Leng Xiyao thought about it and didn't refuse.

Although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect didn't have anything worthy of Leng Xiyao's attention, it was still a powerful force with two Titled Douluo, so it would be nice to win them over.

"But before that, there is one more thing to do." Looking at the excited Ning Rongrong, Leng Xiyao looked at the invitation letter in her hand thoughtfully and whispered softly:

"This auction may be more complicated than I imagined."

Tiandou Auction House is one of the few auction houses in Tiandou, and it almost monopolizes all auction businesses. As a monopoly industry, it seems needless to say how huge its scale is.

The auction was held at three o'clock in the afternoon. Leng Xiyao had told the little monsters about this the day before, but in the end, only Qin Menglan, Liu Qinghan, Ning Rongrong, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Tian Meng, Dugu Bo and Ariel came.

Tang San came here to sell some things for money, and brought Xiao Wu with him to broaden his horizons.

Ning Rongrong followed Leng Xiyao to join in the fun, under the pretext of helping her mother monitor her father's spending, but only she knew the real intention.

Ariel was called back urgently by Leng Xiyao. She wanted her to see if she could buy anything useful at this auction so that she could use it for future research.

Dugu Bo and Tian Meng came along as bodyguards to take a look, and Dugu Bo himself was also very interested in this auction, so he wanted to see if he could get some good stuff to enhance his strength.

As for the other people from Shrek, they all said that they had no money and were not worthy of participating in such a high-end occasion.

So, the next day, after the group gathered, they headed towards the auction.
