Chapter 77

"Hello, my humble servants, welcome to the Crown Prince!"

The blacksmiths shouted.

Qin Yu glanced at everyone present and said loudly, "Everyone, stand up! Don't be afraid. This prince has called you here to forge a batch of weapons. I will pay you one hundred taels of silver per day! Moreover, I will also buy the charcoal and iron ore from your blacksmith shop at the market price!"

When they heard that they were going to forge weapons, the blacksmiths' faces instantly became solemn!

You know, Qin Yu has a history of rebellion, and now he is asking them to make weapons. Is he going to rebel again?

If they helped Qin Yu build it, wouldn't they become accomplices of the rebellion?

"Your Highness! Please let us go. We have elderly parents and young children to support. If we die, what will happen to them?"

The blacksmiths knelt down and begged bitterly.

Qin Yu was speechless, knowing that these people had misunderstood, so he said, "This prince wants you to build weapons and equipment for the Red Flame Iron Cavalry. This is allowed by my father, the emperor. This is definitely not a rebellion! Besides, the fee this prince quoted is also sky-high. What are you afraid of?"

"This... Your Highness, is what you said true?"

The blacksmiths' expressions softened a lot. As long as there was no rebellion, they would not have any objection even if they were not paid.

"What? You don't even believe what this prince says?"

Qin Yu asked coldly.

"Believe it! We believe it. We are top-notch blacksmiths and will never let His Royal Highness down!"

The blacksmiths spoke excitedly.

They might not even earn five cents of silver in a day of blacksmithing.

Here with Qin Yu, even if you don't rebel, you can still earn a hundred taels of silver a day. This is just like a dream!

"Alright! The weapon I want to forge isn't made of iron, but steel. Start the fire now, and I'll teach you how to refine the steel!"

Qin Yu said.

Then he waited for the blacksmiths to light the fire, and then directed them to refine pig iron and then steel!

These blacksmiths were all good at ironwork. Qin Yu only taught them once and they learned it, and then they began to refine steel in large quantities.

Another hour later, Yuwen Chengqing sent someone to deliver the weapons and equipment of the Red Flame Iron Cavalry. Qin Yu asked the blacksmith to keep one set of weapons and equipment as a sample, and melted the rest to refine steel.

It was already late at night. Qin Yu ordered his men to keep an eye on the place, and then took Yu Desheng to Wutong Tower to pick up Si Lili.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw Shangguan Wan'er coming over with her maid Lian'er.

"Qin Yu! Are you impatient to come find me? Humph! You know you're wrong now? It's too late! Even if you ask my father to intercede for you, I won't forgive you easily!"

"I can agree to have dinner with you tonight, but you have to kneel beside me. And, you have to go get the Colorful Cloud Silk Shade back for me tomorrow!"

"Also, today, because of you, my father had to donate 100,000 taels of silver. Tomorrow, you must pay my father back tenfold, and kneel outside the Prime Minister's Mansion. When my father receives the silver, you will get up again!"

Shangguan Wan'er said coldly when she saw Qin Yu.

After Shangguan Xiong returned today, he told her that Qin Yu wanted to apologize to her, and asked her to be more magnanimous and take the initiative to find Qin Yu and accept Qin Yu's apology.

Shangguan Wan'er was very angry when she thought about what Qin Yu had done before. She decided to punish Qin Yu severely, so she deliberately waited until late at night to see Qin Yu.

Seeing that Qin Yu was about to go out, she thought that Qin Yu couldn't wait to find her, so she felt even more arrogant!

Qin Yu is his own bootlicker, so of course he should spend the money he earns on himself!

Now he still has more than one million taels of silver in his hand, and I ask him to pay back ten times to his father. This is to help him please his father. For a bootlicker, it is a huge gift from heaven!

Moreover, my father said that Qin Yu would be able to earn more than 10 million taels of silver in the future, and of course all of this silver would be his!
