Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 98 Return Gift
Lu Huang talked for a full eight dishes.
Tang Zheng was shot repeatedly and his body was full of holes.
After waiting for Lu Huang to catch his breath, Tang Zheng picked up a piece of food with chopsticks. He thought that his ability to resist attacks had been improved to a certain extent. But at this moment, Lu Huang put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Don't I look like someone from Bailianfang?"
"Uh, what do you mean?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Because in Bailianfang, there are very few people who are as good at socializing as me." Lu Huang said with a smile.
"..."Tang Zheng was knocked to the ground instantly by this blow.
He simply had no idea what Lu Huang meant by being "good at socializing" or what the standard for this word "good at" was.
Isn't it based on the average emotional intelligence of Bailianfang?
Tang Zheng cupped his hands to show his agreement with Lu Huang.
If compared with Mo Feng and others from Bailianfang, Lu Huang can indeed be considered good at socializing. Regardless of whether he can speak or not, at least he knows how to laugh.
A six-star expert could laugh. Tang Zheng really had nothing to complain about.
"I want you to join Bailianfang, not only because you have the Sun and Moon in your horoscope, but also because of your unconventional fishbone design and coating design. However, the most important thing is... what you said at the Dagger Appraisal Conference. I really want to see you bring some changes to Bailianfang after joining us!" Lu Huang said.
Lu Huang stated the three reasons for inviting Tang Zheng clearly and directly without any lies.
Casting double stars.
New technology.
Emotional intelligence.
Of course, Lu Huang was most concerned about the third point.
Of course, Tang Zheng also knew how important it was to have a project manager in a place like Bailianfang that was full of technical geeks.
But the question is, did Lu Huang really do anything right? Did he think he could raise the average emotional intelligence of Bailianfang?
That's bullshit!
He himself is still trying to quit being funny, okay!
Seeing that Tang Zheng did not answer, Lu Huang was not in a hurry. He took out a dagger from his sleeve and handed it to Tang Zheng: "Last time, you gave us Bailianfang a big gift. This is Bailianfang's return gift."
Tang Zheng took it and took a look. What Lu Huang handed him was exactly the unscabbard sword that he had seen at Bailianfang for the first time!
He sighed, with mixed feelings.
At that time, he really wanted to buy this dagger. Although he already had a sword and dagger later, it was still a regret that he did not buy what he liked.
In his ten-year gaming career, he had too many regrets about his equipment.
So in this world, no matter whether he needs it or not, he will definitely want to buy something he likes.
He stood up and swung the dagger twice.
The cold light is shining everywhere.
Tang Zheng used his star power a little and found that the star power resonance of this dagger was indeed high.
It extended easily and spread quickly to the tip of the dagger!
As soon as Tang Zheng stood up, almost praised him: "What a great dagger! The master has a great hand."
"This is the unscabbard made by Master Lu Huang himself, right? Oh, I've seen it, it's worth hundreds of gold!"
"Congratulations, Master, for receiving the dagger as a gift from the master..." The disciples of Tang Family Castle looked at the dagger with shining eyes.
Tang Zheng laughed.
Judging from the star power resonance alone, it is definitely more than ten points better than the sword and dagger he bought from Ban Yilou.
However, in terms of grip, Tang Zheng felt that the sword and dagger were more comfortable to use.
Two daggers, each with its own merits.
"This dagger is just a casual creation of mine. You can use it for now. I promised to make a secondary weapon tailor-made for you, and I will never go back on my word!" Lu Huang said again .
Tang Xiaotang and the others were already pale. The work made by Master Lu Huang was only a temporary substitute...
Tang Xiaotang had seen Tang Zheng's design drawings.
No matter from which perspective, this dagger is countless times better than the design that Tang Zheng showed her, right?
Hearing this, Tang Zheng stood up, bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Master Lu!"
Lu Huang smiled again.
Tang Zheng put the dagger into his sleeve, took out the teacup from his sleeve and handed it to Azhi beside him.
After he sat down again, Lu Huang did not mention the matter of him joining Bai Lian Fang again. Instead, he talked about the dagger that Tang Zheng had bet with Bai Lian Fang.
Not to mention those rare materials, it’s not like Lu Huang, a foundry master, has never seen them before, so his focus is still on the new technology developed by Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng talked about his ideas of multi-point support for the fishbone structure and the coating, which made Lu Huang nod his head repeatedly. Lu Huang also explained to Tang Zheng from the simplest to the most complex some of the low-level mistakes that occurred during the casting process of the dagger.
The master is worthy of being a master!
Although Lu Huang was not very good at topics other than casting, as long as it involved casting, he could explain everything from the basics to the advanced level, and even Tang Zheng, a half-baked person who had hardly learned casting, could understand it at once.
The tea party was held according to Tang Zheng's order, and quite a few people came.
As the tea party progressed, more and more people came over to try to get close to Lu Huang, and Lu Huang was unable to refuse.
Because of his calmness and politeness, the guests gradually let go of their awe and came to talk to him more and more frequently.
"If you are free to come to Bailianfang in the near future, we can talk about it in detail." Seeing that there were four people waiting behind him, Lu Huang had no choice but to say to Tang Zheng with a smile.
"Okay. I'll bring the design drawings of my secondary weapon as well!" Tang Zheng responded while holding the dagger Lu Huangxin gave him.
Then, Tang Zheng smiled and moved his chair away, switching seats with Tang Boyuan, letting Tang Boyuan sit next to Lu Huang.
Tang Zheng turned around and his eyes fell on Ah Zhi who was waiting anxiously on the side. He smiled and whispered, "Have you changed Baihua Chaolu's teacup?"
Ah Zhi snorted: "Do I look like someone who can't even do such a small thing?"
"Okay, then it's none of your business." Tang Zheng waved his hand.
"Hey!" Ah Zhi looked at Tang Zheng speechlessly, "You don't think that just by making a poisoned teacup and letting me replace it with Lan Shaoze, I can kill him, right?"
Tang Zheng looked at Azhi with a look as if he was looking at an idiot, which made Azhi feel extremely uncomfortable.
…
The tea party that Lu Huang invited back was all vegetarian, and there was not a drop of alcohol.
After all the vegetarian dishes were served, more than a dozen teapots were brought up by beautiful women in elegant attire.
The highlight of a tea party is, of course, the fragrant tea!
What is the best tea in Yangxian Tower? Of course, Baihua Chaolu!
Whether in terms of preciousness, taste or price, it is far ahead in Yangxian Tower.
Streams of emerald green "Hundred Flowers Morning Dew" tea were poured into beautiful cups, and Yangxian Tower unconsciously became a little quieter.
Tang Zheng shouted to Ah Zhi: "Can't you just stop staring at Lan Shaoze?"
"I... I don't have any?"
"Don't look. If he sees you, he'll think you did something to him..."
"But..." Azhi's tongue was tied. He personally replaced the teacup that Lan Shaoze used to drink the Hundred Flowers Morning Dew. Didn't this count as doing something to him?
Even if Azhi faced off against a three-star warrior head-on, he wouldn't be so nervous!
He was getting nervous when Tang Zheng stuffed a piece of vegetarian Zui Xiang Chicken into his mouth with a chopstick: "Psychological quality!"
Ah Zhi's face darkened immediately: "What is that?"
Tang Zheng hushed softly and cast a vague glance in Lan Shaoze's direction. Ah Zhi looked over there too and almost dropped the teacup in his hand.
After the beauty poured a cup of fragrant tea for Lan Shaoze, Lan Shaoze did not taste it directly!
Ah Zhi looked again and saw that the servant beside Lan Shaoze picked up a clean pair of chopsticks, dipped it into Lan Shaoze's cup, dipped it in some tea, and tasted it carefully...
"It's over. We're going to be discovered!" Ah Zhi uttered subconsciously.
"Aren't you hungry? Come here and eat." Tang Zheng said to Azhi.
"..." Ah Zhi was going crazy, "He... He has someone test every dish for poison! Why don't you just let me go over and kill him with one sword?"
"Okay." Tang Zheng said with a smile, "Why don't you ask Master Lu Huang if he agrees first?"
"But you poisoned him to death at Lu Huang's tea party, which is also inappropriate, but you..." Ah Zhi was about to refute, but he saw the servant who tested the poison nodded to Lan Shaoze, and Lan Shaoze actually picked up the cup directly!
Azhi's eyes widened.
Is it a chronic poison?
No, he knew poison. Chronic poison was definitely not colorless and odorless!
So……
"Is the cup not poisonous at all? Are you sick?" Ah Zhi stared at him and questioned, "Why did you ask me to get a cup without poison to exchange for Lan Shaoze's cup?"
Tang Zheng stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Ah Zhi's eyes, saying, "Don't ask. Follow me later, I will teach you how to assassinate today!"
Ah Zhi looked out the window and said, "Now? It's already dark!"
"Fuck! Does assassination mean the sky is dark?" Tang Zheng swallowed a mouthful of blood in frustration after failing to pretend to be powerful. He weakly inserted another finger, " Remember one thing. Today, you only watch, don't do anything!"
"Why don't you let me do it?" Ah Zhi was obviously not so easy to talk to. "It would be much easier if I did it..."
"If you take action, it won't save trouble, but will cause trouble. Because you will make too much noise!" Tang Zheng interrupted him, "If you must take action, I can give you a chance to strike with one sword later. Just one sword, you can choose the time by yourself, you can strike at any time, but you must ensure that the sword is silent, and after you strike with the sword, you must not make trouble again. Don't you think you are powerful? A two-star warrior is awesome? It's okay or not, just one sentence!"
"Hmph, one sword is enough." Azhi said unconvinced.
"Don't I still owe you a head? With this sword, no matter you kill Lan Shaoze or not, we'll be even!" Tang Zhengdao.
"No problem!" Azhi also got angry.
"Then follow me later." Tang Zheng continued eating.
Ah Zhi snorted.
He is a two-star warrior and the next Shadow King of Yingshan. How could he lose to Tang Zheng?
However, Tang Zheng no longer looked at him. He lowered his head and concentrated on filling his stomach.
Azhi clenched the sword in his hand.
Although he had agreed on the terms with Tang Zheng, he had no idea why Tang Zheng asked him to change the cups, and when and where he should do it.
