"Mm, don't worry, Brother Lin. Since we've found the root of the problem, I'm confident that I can succeed as long as we can solve the problem of the attribute conflict!" The King of Junk promised.
"That's great, but how are we going to solve this problem now?" Lin Yi asked. The process of forging could not be stopped halfway, and with the current situation, the lump inside could not even be considered a semi-finished product. It was even more impossible to take it out now.
"If everything goes as expected, the forging pool will continue to be in this state. However, to be on the safe side, it's better for me to stay here and keep an eye on it. Therefore, I can only trouble Brother Lin to find some materials to make up for it, so that we can continue forging," the King of Junk said as he took out a pen and paper, then listed a list of materials and passed it to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi took a glance and asked, "Are these materials common?"
"Most of them are common, so we should be able to buy them directly. However, there are two that we'll have to try our luck. Fortunately, we're not in a rush, and I'll find a way to control it. Even if it takes longer, it won't be a problem! Being slow is also a stage of forging, so taking longer might not be a bad thing, "the King of Junk analyzed.
"Alright, I'll think of a way to make up for the materials. I'll leave it to you, Brother Wang." Lin Yi immediately set off.
Hong Merchant Guild. After Hong Zhong Yuan went to Middle Island to take up his post, it was now Si Haixiao's territory. At this moment, there were two familiar faces in the private room. They were Nan Tianba and Nan Tianmen.
"Shopkeeper Si, we have a presumptuous request. We hope you can help us find someone," Nan Tianmen and Nan Tianba looked at each other and pleaded.
"Oh? Who? Could it be about Lin Er? There's no news yet, but I've already sent people to investigate. "Si Haixiao casually answered as he drank the high-quality spiritual tea.
"Actually, we already know Lin Er's true identity and his whereabouts. This guy is the Lin Yi I mentioned to you before! However, we're looking for someone else. You've met him once before. He's my unworthy Martial Nephew, Yu Zhe. "The Southern Heavenly Gate said awkwardly.
He and Nan Tianba had already searched everywhere they could, but they still couldn't find any trace of Yu Zhe. They had no choice but to run over to ask Si Haixiao for help. After all, Si Haixiao was a supervisor. Letting him borrow the eyes and ears of the Hong Ying Group to find out Yu Zhe's whereabouts was much better than relying on the two of them to run around blindly.
"Ask about Yu Zhe? Don't you know the whereabouts of your own martial nephew? " Si Haixiao was taken aback. "Since we already know that Lin Yi is Lin Yi the Second, we should think of a way to deal with Lin Yi first. Why bother looking for Yu Zhe? "
"Sigh, Shopkeeper Si, there's something you don't know. We only learned recently that the culprit that killed Third Brother wasn't Lin Yi, but Yu Zhe's rebellious disciple!" The South-Heaven Gate briefly explained the recent events to Si Haixiao.
Such a complicated inside story made Si Haixiao click his tongue in wonder. Yu Zhe killing his teacher. Although it had caused a lot of commotion recently, it was mainly focused on the Three Great Pavilions. It didn't spread much in the market place. Furthermore, he had been busy reorganizing the Hong Chamber of Commerce recently. In order to erase the traces left behind by Hong Zhong's many years of business, he had no time to care about this kind of gossip.
"I didn't think that this kid would actually be a traitor despite looking so much like a dog. Fine. This shopkeeper will send a message to the old partner of the Hong Ying Group who is in charge of the north island and let him investigate for you. Since the matter has become so big, the eyes and ears in the north island should take the initiative to pay attention to Yu Zhe's whereabouts. "After Si Haixiao said this, he immediately wrote a note and had someone send a letter with a bird.
Since they were both in the north island, the news spread very quickly. In just the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Si Haixiao received a reply. Unfortunately, the other party's reply was that they didn't receive any news regarding Yu Zhe's whereabouts.
Nan Tianba and Southern Sky Gate were both extremely depressed. Now that the missing Yu Zhe had become the two brothers' laughingstock, if they let him go on like this, the prestige they had established in the Soaring Sky Pavilion would probably be completely gone.
Seeing the two of them like this, Si Haixiao comforted them. "Actually, you don't need to be too discouraged. That kid Yu Zhe can hide for a while, but can he hide forever? The Hong Ying Group has so many eyes and ears in the north island. As long as he appears, don't worry about not being able to find him. This is all just a matter of time! Also, isn't that Lin Yi ready-made? Although Yu Zhe killed Nan Tianyong, there's still a problem with him! "
Nan Tianba and Southern Sky Gate both nodded. "We also know that Lin Yi isn't a good person. When he pretended to be Second Lin and took away the Star Inkstone, it was actually because he had bad intentions. Everything started because of him. Otherwise, Third Brother wouldn't have ended up being killed by his own disciple."
"That's right, so this shopkeeper is prepared to help you deal with him!" Si Haixiao suddenly said.
"Huh?" The two of them couldn't help but look at each other in surprise. Although Si Haixiao had previously agreed to help find Second Lin, the perfunctory meaning behind it could be seen even if they were blind. Why did he suddenly take the initiative now?
"Don't be so surprised. These two days, your uncle, Nan Tian Polaris, just happened to send this shopkeeper a letter. He asked this shopkeeper to help him teach a lesson to an enemy. He made this enemy when he went to the secular world to be a guide. Guess who it is?" Si Haixiao said with a playful expression.
"It can't be Lin Yi, right?" The two of them instantly looked at each other.
"That's right, it's this Lin Yi. Speaking of which, this kid is really at odds with your family. In the secular world, he went against your uncle, and now he's going against the two of you. It's really rare to see a newcomer who dares to provoke others like this." Si Haixiao laughed.
Nan Tianba and Southern Sky Gate both had an expression as if they had seen a ghost. They immediately reacted and said, "Since there's a grudge against Uncle, then we can't let this kid go. Let's do as Shopkeeper Si says and deal with Lin Yi first!"
Si Haixiao nodded and said, "Now that Hong Zhong has gone to the middle island, distant water can't put out a nearby fire. Moreover, it's said that he's also in trouble, so it's easy for us to deal with Lin Yi. However, we still need to plan this matter first and find a good opportunity. It's best if Lin Yi takes the initiative to come to us. Otherwise, as the shopkeeper of the northern island of the Hong Merchant Guild, it wouldn't be good for me to go to the Welcoming Pavilion to find him."
"Yes, yes, Shopkeeper Si has thought things through." Southern Sky Gate agreed.
