Douluo V: Daily Intelligence - I Want All of Tang San's Opportunities

Su Yuntao picked up his teacup, took a sip, and waved his hand with a smile:

"You're too kind, City Lord. This was actually the idea of ​​Palace Master Qin. I was just running an errand to deliver an official letter."

"I understand." Xiao Huaiyuan nodded with a smile. "I will personally visit Palace Master Qin to express my gratitude later, but I will also remember your kindness in personally making this trip and delivering the message to me. If you need any help in Notting City in the future, please feel free to ask."

Su Yuntao silently memorized those words, but merely smiled politely on the surface:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, City Lord."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Su Yuntao got up to take his leave.

Xiao Huaiyuan personally escorted him to the gate, held his hand, and said a few more words like "Come visit often" and "Don't worry about Tang San," before reluctantly letting him leave.

Su Yuntao walked out of the city lord's mansion, his steps unhurried, until he reached the street corner before stopping and letting out a long breath.

The official letter has been delivered, the favor has been gained, and the approximate location of the "Silver Moon Concentration Technique" has been determined.

The only question now is what's going on with that book, "Silver Moon Concentration Technique," in the corner?

Su Yuntao stood on the street corner, trying hard to recall the location of the golden dot of light he had seen when he passed the front yard.

Before this, he had always thought that the "Silver Moon Concentration Technique" was Xiao Huaiyuan's collection.

But if it really is Xiao Huaiyuan's, why would such a top-notch meditation method be hidden under the front wall?

Su Yuntao frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he gave up thinking about it.

In any case, since the intelligence system has marked the location, the thing must be there.

However, he couldn't make a move because Xiao Huaiyuan had been by his side the whole day.

If I really want to get that meditation method next time, I'll have to make other plans.

Let's talk about this in a few days, and then see if we can sneak into the city lord's mansion again.

As Su Yuntao walked, he touched the hidden arrow in his pocket. How far Tang San's matter would develop depended on the reactions of both the Spirit Hall and the City Lord's Mansion. Taking advantage of this lull, he planned to go home and mass-produce the hidden arrows first.

He left the city and hurried back to the baron's territory.

Upon entering the courtyard, Liu was washing vegetables by the well. Seeing him return, she greeted him.

"Yuntao, you're back? Have you eaten?"

"I've already eaten." Su Yuntao walked over, his tone becoming more serious. "Mother, come with me to my eldest brother's place for a moment. There's something I want to discuss with you."

Seeing his solemn expression, Liu wiped her hands, nodded, and turned to go to the east wing.

Su Yuntao followed his elder brother Su Yunfeng into his room and pulled up a stool to sit down.

Su Yunfeng was still leaning against the headboard, his complexion better than a few days ago. He put down the book he was holding when Su Yuntao came in.

"What is it? You look so serious."

Su Yuntao didn't waste any words, took out the hidden arrow given to him by Tang San from his pocket, and handed it forward:

"Brother, take a look at this."

Su Yunfeng took it, held it in his hand, and looked at it over and over a few times.

The sleeve arrow is small and exquisite, all iron gray in color, with a very smooth surface, and not a single gap can be seen at the spring.

He tried pressing the trigger mechanism on the side, and with a soft "click," a short arrow as thin as a cow's hair shot out from its muzzle and embedded itself in the wooden frame on the opposite wall, its fletching still trembling slightly.

Su Yunfeng's eyes widened in surprise.

"This thing... is too well concealed. It's so small that you can't even see it if you put it in your sleeve. It's also quick to fire and the arrow speed is not slow. If an ordinary person is not on guard, they probably won't even have time to react."

He paused, then looked up at Su Yuntao, his gaze becoming even more serious:

"Even a Grand Soul Master who is on guard can suffer a great loss with this arrow if the distance is close enough and the attack is sudden enough. Where did you get this?"

"I got it by chance," Su Yuntao replied casually, then changed the subject, "Brother, do you think this thing would sell in the market?"

Su Yunfeng nodded without hesitation:

"Of course there are. The city's guards, the rogue soul masters who travel around, and the small merchants who run businesses—who wouldn't want an extra life-saving item? This thing isn't as conspicuous as swords and blades; it's not a problem to carry around, but it can save your life in a critical moment. As long as the price isn't set too outrageously, there's no worry about finding buyers."

He paused, then frowned slightly:

"However, it's not easy to replicate such an exquisite item. If there's only one, then it doesn't have much significance."

Su Yuntao took out several neatly folded sheets of paper from his pocket and spread them out on the bedside table:

"Don't worry, I already have the blueprints. The dimensions, materials, and assembly sequence of the core components are all clearly marked. Just follow the blueprints and find a skilled blacksmith to make it."

Su Yunfeng leaned closer, looking at the dense markings and cross-sections on the drawing. He remained silent for a while before looking up at Su Yuntao, his eyes filled with surprise and a complex mix of emotions.

He nodded and carefully handed the blueprints back to Su Yuntao: "Since you have the blueprints, that makes things easier. We have a few old blacksmiths in our territory. Although their skills aren't top-notch, they can definitely make small items like these."

Liu had been standing silently to the side, but finally couldn't help but interject:

"Yunfeng, that hidden blade you mentioned, can it really be sold once it's made?"

"Mother, don't worry. I just tested this thing myself. It's highly concealed, quick to strike, and quite powerful. Once we make the first batch, we can test it out with the city's guards or merchants. Once we get started, we won't have to worry about orders."

Su Yuntao rolled up the blueprints and placed them in Liu's hands:

"Mother, since my brother said that these hidden blades can be sold, why don't we give it a try? Our baron territory has not had a stable source of income for many years. Relying solely on land rent and my brother's occasional hunting of spirit beasts for money is simply not enough to sustain us. If we can scale up the production of these hidden blades, even if we only sell a few dozen a month, it will be enough to cover the territory's daily expenses."

"Until my elder brother recovers from his injuries, he definitely can't take charge of this matter. I'm at the Spirit Hall, and I can't spare the time during this period, so..."

Seeing his hesitant expression, the wrinkles at the corners of Liu's eyes smoothed out slightly. She reached out and patted his arm, then nodded gently.

"Alright, since you all think it's possible, let's give it a try. I'll arrange things with the blacksmith."

Su Yuntao responded and then discussed with the two of them for a few more minutes about how many pieces to make in the first batch and how to purchase the materials before coming out of his elder brother's room.
