“Are you afraid now?” Zhang Ronghua teased.”

“Yes.” Ding Yi nodded heavily.

“The Sky Shaking Thunder is too terrifying. What you said is conservative. Just two would be enough to sendon my way.”

“If it wasn’t that powerful, the higher-ups wouldn’t have placed so much importance on it.”

Pointing at the materials on the table, Ding Yi asked again,””Are you done?”

Zhang Ronghua replied.

“Are you confident?”

“You can try!”

Ding Yi rolled his eyes and said unhappily,””Brother, can you not be so humble? I’m embarrassed to criticize you. You always try or know a little. Once you make a move, your jaw will drop!”

Bang’.

Zhang Ronghua knocked him on the head and glared at him.’You talk too much.”

He chuckled.

Ding Yi continued,” I’ve already found out that Great Shang’s troops stationed in Gu PO Town at the border of the East Gate are ready to make a move. Even though a large-scale battle has yet to break out, small-scale killings have been happening nonstop. Especially recently, the fighting has been very fierce! Great Shang had made ample preparations this time. They were using feys to fight. They weren’t too powerful, but they were very lethal. They posed a huge threat to the lower-level officers. If they used a large number of lethal feys, firstly, it would constoo much energy. Secondly, the cost of refining them would be high, and they wouldn’t be able to scare them off. When the news cback, the Minister of War and the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets studied it and ordered the Ministry of Works to create feys with high lethality and low consumption in the shortest tpossible. He was a low-level officer who specialized in dealing with Great Shang’s army, an eye for an eye!”

Ancient Slope Town was under the jurisdiction of Wangtian County and Wangtian Prefecture. It was originally part of the territory of Grand Shang, but in the war ten years ago, Grand Shang was defeated and half of the province was taken by Grand Xia. Right now, the Black Dragon War Banner of Grand Xia was on the walls of Ancient Slope Town.

“There are no low-level feys in Gu PO Town?” Zhang Ronghua asked.” “Yes!” Ding Yi replied.

” Compared to the new low-grade feys that Great Shang is using, the Fire-Thunder Beads are weaker and the materials are more expensive. After research, the cost of several low-grade feys, or even seven to eight low-grade feys, is only the sas the cost of one Fire-Thunder Bead. If this continues, Great Shang will drag us to our deaths.”

Zhang Ronghua understood that there were many different ways to fight. In addition to fighting head-on, there were many other ways to fight. As long as they could hurt the other party, it was a good plan.

At the stime, he also found out why no one had mentioned it in the imperial court. Firstly, the war had not started yet, so there was no need to make it known to the whole court. Once it got out, it would inevitably give sfactions with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of it. Secondly, this matter was a top secret. His identity was not enough. Other than those who participated in this matter, he was not qualified to know.

Ding Yi’s face was burning.” This is a great merit. Once we refine the Heaven Shaking Powder and complete this task, the rewards from the higher-ups will be very generous. We can even leave a heavy mark on our resume.”

“Good winds rely on strength to soar into the nine heavens!”

“Brother, I met Cui Jiancheng on the way here. He toldthat during this period of time, the logistics department will fully guarantee our work. We will be given whatever we want. As long as we make a list, we will find ways to get the stars and the moon from the sky.”

She winked playfully and said teasingly.

“If he knew that we could solve the problem of the Sky Shaking Powder, he would probably regret it.”

“It’s not an estimate, it’s a certainty!” Zhang Ronghua said firmly.” Their eyes met like a pair of sly old men. The two of them smiled maliciously.

Thump! Thump!

There was a knock on the door, and a nervous and awkward voice cfrom outside. “Huang Zhongshi requests an audience!”

He stopped smiling.

After thinking about it, Zhang Ronghua knew who this person was. He was a councilor of the Materials Hall and was the second-in-command. Ding Yi’s introduction to the Ministry of Works mentioned that he had solid foundation skills and had worked in the Spirit Research Department for ten years. He had rich theoretical experience and was very capable. He had failed to compete with Wu Yangjian’s confidant for the position of the main clerk of the Materials Hall and had been shelved.

Find out his identity and guess his purpose.

“Cin!” he said in a deep voice.

The door of the palace was pushed open. Huang Zhongshi carefully entered and closed the door. He was very nervous. He had mustered up his courage this time! Firstly, Zhang Ronghua was transferred to the Spirit Research Department. As an outsider, he had no foundation. No matter what he did, he needed manpower. If he joined now and was put in an important position, the benefits would be huge! Huang Zhongshi had done a lot of homework regarding him. When news of the new lord was about to take office, he had secretly investigated.

He knew that he was the Crown Prince and Pei Caicai. He was young, knowledgeable, talented, capable, and pragmatic. Even Lu Junxiu was originally frustrated. After he joined, not only did he hold real power, but he was also promoted to one of the two managers of the Scholar Hall. There were also Jin Yaoguang and the other two. If not for Zhang Ronghua, he would have been killed by He Wenxuan and would not have been able to hold an official position again.

Secondly, he had to refine the Heaven Shaking Powder within the stipulated time. With his own ability, it was enough to help a lot. The probability of him being reused was very high.

Taking a step back, even if he didn’t get the favor, there was no loss! He would just continue to live like before, receiving a salary and living a bitter life.

Suppressing the fear in her heart, she mustered up her courage and looked up. What entered her eyes was his majestic and piercing gaze. It was as if no one could hide in front of this pair of eyes. She panicked and subconsciously wanted to shift her gaze away, not daring to look at him! However, when he thought of his purpose for coming here, if he moved away like this, wouldn’t he be saying that he had a guilty conscience? If he left a bad impression, it would cause him to fail in the following defection and he would be frozen..
