Douluo: Make a gun first

Chapter 149 Reaching Cooperation
Ning Fengzhi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Shen Rui to refuse so firmly and so directly.

As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. He naturally understands this truth.

In particular, hot weapons such as firearms and artillery are too dependent on the power of projectiles, and projectiles are disposable consumables that disappear immediately after being fired.

Compared to always relying on the Soul Hunting Guild, Ning Fengzhi actually wants to take control of all the production processes in his own hands.

Seeing Ning Fengzhi's eyes wandering and revealing a thoughtful look, Shen Rui said directly: "Even if the deal fails, we still have righteousness. Sect Master Ning, there is no need to let some dead things affect the relationship between our two families."

"How about this, as a thank you for your help to our Soul Hunter Guild during this beast tide, we will donate weapons and ammunition for 5000 of your people in the next ten years."

"And I have brought all the soul bones I harvested from this beast tide, including two thirty thousand year soul bones, six thousand year soul bones, and two hundred year soul bones. They can all be returned to your clan."

As he spoke, Shen Rui took out all ten soul bones from the storage soul guide and piled them on the table.

Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly. He could tell from Shen Rui's attitude that there was no room for negotiation on the issue of how to make guns and artillery.

After all, it concerns the foundation of his own power. Let alone Shen Rui, even Ning Fengzhi would not hand it over easily.

That is a secret that I would rather die than give up.

Ning Fengzhi sighed and waved his hand, saying, "Don't mention gifts anymore. We in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect can afford to buy these weapons and equipment."

"Since President Shen is unwilling to give up the manufacturing process of firearms and artillery, let's follow the purchase agreement we discussed earlier."

"As for the soul bones, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect doesn't want them. We will give them all to your guild as a symbol of our friendship."

Everyone present was stunned when they heard this. A soul bone of 30,000 years old was already a rare treasure.

Even many Soul Sages and Soul Douluo-level warriors do not have a soul bone on their bodies, let alone precious soul bones that are already 30,000 years old.

Haven’t you seen that among the six soul bones left behind by Tang Hao after his death, two of them are only 30,000 years old?

You have to know that Tang Hao was born with a golden key into the world's number one sect, the Haotian Sect, and his own talent is enough to suppress the geniuses of an era.

A thirty thousand year old soul bone was a soul bone large enough to be absorbed into his body. One could imagine how precious a thirty thousand year old soul bone was in the eyes of an ordinary soul master.

Jian Douluo frowned slightly and couldn't help but say: "Feng Zhi, our sect doesn't have many 30,000-year soul bones..."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head: "Uncle Jian, soul bones have a price, but friendship is priceless. President Shen has already helped us a lot by providing us with weapons and equipment for their internal use."

"Besides, regarding the Xingdou Great Forest incident, President Shen and his men also saved Rongrong's life, so they are not outsiders."

"If this soul bone can help President Shen and his team recover their strength faster and produce more weapons and equipment, it will be the most beneficial thing for us."

Hearing this, Jian Douluo looked at Ning Fengzhi strangely, temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart, and said nothing more.

Shen Rui thought for a moment, then laughed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Ning. If that's the case, shouldn't we also express our gratitude?"

"How about this, as a testimony to our friendship, the first batch of 10000 people will be provided with guns and ammunition for free by our Soul Hunter Guild."

"And this time, Sect Master Ning can go back and take away enough weapons and equipment to equip 500 people."

"Although the return gift is not valuable, it is also a token of our Soul Hunter Guild's goodwill. I hope Sect Master Ning will not refuse it."

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, "Thank you, President Shen."

Shen Rui waved his hand: "No need to thank me, it's just that temporarily transferring so many weapons and equipment will put a lot of pressure on our logistics."

"If Sect Master Ning doesn't have anything important to do, we need to leave first to make some arrangements, and try not to delay your departure time."

Ning Fengzhi nodded, "Thank you, President Shen, for your kindness. I'll see you off." After Shen Rui and the others left, Jian Douluo looked at Ning Fengzhi strangely, "Fengzhi, this is not your style. Your tolerance for the Soul Hunter Guild is too high."

Ning Fengzhi sighed and said, "Now that the Spirit Hall is at its peak, the Clear Sky Sect has retreated, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Sect is in a period of transition, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has naturally become a thorn in the side of the Spirit Hall."

"Especially when I was confronting Bibi Dong yesterday, I made a mistake in my calculations, which will definitely lead to a great decline in the reputation of our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."

"For now, we must not make any more enemies, and we must unite all the forces we can to resist the subsequent suppression from the Spirit Hall."

"Not to mention that we still need to purchase the guns and ammunition we will use in the future from the Soul Hunter Guild, just the core members of the Soul Hunter Guild such as Shen Rui, Ling Na, Zhao Wuji, and Dugu Bo are worth winning over."

"Yesterday, Juhuaguan's words made me realize something strange. It seems that the Soul Hunter Guild has been infiltrated by the Spirit Hall a long time ago."

"If Shen Rui and his men are unable to maintain the Soul Hunter Guild and are forced to choose one side, then the goodwill we show them now may be the only criterion for them to join in the future."

After hearing what Ning Fengzhi said, Jian Douluo nodded slightly: "You are still very cunning, forget it as long as we don't suffer any loss."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "What's the use of being cunning? In the end, don't you still have to rely on your strength to speak?"

"If Bibi Dong had the power to directly pacify the world, she might have taken us down yesterday."

"What a terrifying woman. She's only in her 50s but she's already surpassed you, Uncle Jian. I really don't know how she cultivated herself."

Jian Douluo frowned: "It is rumored that she has twin martial spirits, maybe this is related."

"Every time a soul master absorbs a soul ring, his soul power level can be increased to a certain extent. If her second martial soul is all ten thousand year soul rings, it is not surprising that she can gain such strength at such a young age."

Ning Fengzhi sighed: "Twin martial souls are truly an enviable talent. Unlike my Seven Treasure Glazed Tower, I will never be able to break through to level 80 in my lifetime."

"Oh, the best auxiliary martial spirit in the world? How ridiculous!"

Limited by the defects of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda martial soul, Ning Fengzhi was never able to break through to level 80 and possess the eighth soul ring.

After more than a decade of hard work, there has been no progress. Solving the defects of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda martial spirit has almost become his obsession.

Jian Douluo frowned slightly and patted Ning Fengzhi on the shoulder: "Fengzhi, don't be discouraged, don't you still have Rongrong?"

"With her talent, there will definitely be a way to solve the flaws of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in the future and restore the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda's status as the king of auxiliary power."

"Rongrong?" Ning Fengzhi said with a dim look in his eyes: "I hope so. I hope she can do it."

Over the past thousands of years, countless talented Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda spirit owners have tried their best but have not been able to break through to level 80 or above.

Ning Rongrong's innate soul power is only level nine. Ning Fengzhi can hardly hope that she will be able to successfully break this curse in the future and reproduce the supreme splendor of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower.

　I am a little confused about the arrangements for Ning Rongrong. Dear readers, how do you want to arrange her?
　　First of all, don’t have a harem.

　　1. Marginalized, I won’t write about her anymore.

　　Second, let her get along with Ma Hongjun. After all, Ning Fengzhi also has many wives and concubines. I think she should not despise Ma Hongjun's past romantic life.

　　If written this way, after the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect suffers in the later period, the opportunity can be taken to subdue it and directly incorporated into the protagonist's forces.

　　If you readers have any better arrangements, please give me your valuable suggestions and I will choose a plan that everyone is satisfied with.

　　Thank you——
