Chapter 11 Sudden Assassination
The Ji family is the first forging family in Qingyun, and it is an authority in the forging world, and is well-known in the neighboring countries.
Over the years, the Xuan-level swords forged by the Ji family have been highly praised and sought after by experts from all walks of life, and there has never been a problem.
Things like returns are very rare.
It was the first time that goods worth two million silver were returned at one time!
Ji Tianxing asked Ji Hao with a gloomy face: "Second, what's going on? Who dares to return our Ji family's goods?"
"It's the Gu family." Ji Hao showed anger and said indignantly: "The Gu family ordered 50 Xuan-level swords in the Xuanjian workshop last month, and the negotiated price is 2.23 million."
"Yesterday was supposed to be the day of delivery. The Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs notified Gu's family to pick up the goods, but Gu's family wanted to return the goods and wanted to return the deposit of 100,000 taels!"
Ji Tianxing immediately understood that the reason why the Gu family wanted to return the goods must be because of Gu Hao's death.
He couldn't help sneering and said, "If the Gu family wants to return it, let them return it, and don't want to return the deposit!"
"The Xuanbing sword forged by our Ji family is well-known in Qingyun Kingdom, and there is never a shortage of buyers. The Gu family doesn't buy it, some people want to buy it!"
Ji Hao frowned and said worriedly, "But Big Brother, this kind of thing has never happened before!"
"If we really let the Gu family return the goods, after the news spreads, there is no doubt how others will talk and speculate. There must be something wrong with slandering our Ji family's sword..."
"Brother, I think you should go and have a look. This matter is related to the reputation of our Ji family."
Ji Tianxing thought for a moment in silence, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go there in person."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard, and asked the servants to prepare the horse.
Ji Hao quickly followed, "Brother, I'll go with you!"
After a while, Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao left Ji Mansion and rode to the Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs.
Xuanjian Workshop is located on a mountain in the southern suburbs, more than 60 miles away from the imperial city.
It is not so much a workshop, it is better to say that it is a huge Ji family manor, occupying half of the mountain.
The Ji family hollowed out the inside of the mountain and built several huge warehouses to store the materials and ores used in the forging.
There is also an oversized iron furnace in the mountainside. When the furnace burns, the sky will be bright red, and the clouds will turn red.
There are more than 2,000 laborers and forge apprentices in the workshop, as well as a dozen forge masters, who work for the Ji family day and night.
In addition, there are as many as 300 guards guarding the Xuanjian workshop, including many masters and a few strong ones.
Anyone who sees the Xuanjian workshop in the southern suburbs will be amazed by the grand scale and momentum.
It took Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao over an hour to arrive at the Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs.
After entering the workshop, Ji Tianxing directly found the workshop owner Gu Jian and asked for details.
Gu Jian is Ji Changkong's confidant, and he is also very familiar with Ji Tianxing, and treats him with trust and enthusiasm like a nephew.
He had long known that Ji Tianxing had become a waste, and after seeing Ji Tianxing, he asked a few questions with concern.
After chatting for a while, Gu Jian said solemnly: "Eldest young master, I personally supervised and supervised the manufacture of these swords, and there is absolutely no problem."
"The Gu family's return is also nonsense and unreasonable. Now the elders and guards of the Gu family are still sitting in the reception hall, you see..."
Ji Tianxing nodded and said in a cold tone: "In this case, if they want to return the goods, let them refund them, and the deposit will be deducted."
"From now on, our Ji family will never sell another weapon to the Gu family! As for the fifty swords, we will find another buyer."
"Hmph, are the swords forged by our Ji family still worried about not being able to sell them?"
Gu Jian originally had the same idea, but this matter is very important, and only if the head of the family Ji Changkong or the eldest young master speaks in person, he can implement it.
Seeing that Ji Tianxing agreed, Gu Jian handed over his orders and went to negotiate with the people of the Gu family.
After dealing with this matter, Ji Tianxing left the workshop with Ji Hao.
It was almost noon when the two went down the mountain, and there was no one on the official road down the mountain, only the two of them were galloping on their horses.
Half an hour later, the two were riding horses through a lush green forest.
Ji Tianxing suddenly discovered that there were several stumbling cables on the official road ten feet ahead, blocking his way.
"Shut up!"
Ji Tianxing quickly tightened the reins, trying to stop the white horse galloping under his crotch.
The white horse let out a neighing sound, and ran for another seven or eight zhang, before stopping before tripping over the horse rope.
The horse Ji Hao was riding also stopped beside him and raised its front hooves high, almost throwing Ji Hao off the horse.
"Second child, be careful! I'm afraid there is an ambush here!"
Ji Tianxing reminded Ji Hao in a low voice, and clenched the high-grade Xuan-level sword around his waist - the Blood Dragon Sword.
Ji Hao immediately understood, and also pulled out the Xuan Jinbao sword with a "clang", staring vigilantly around.
At this moment, the sound of "crashing" suddenly came from the dense woods on both sides of the official road.
The next moment, six warriors in black tights and hooded scarves rushed out as fast as a gust of wind, waving swords and rushing towards the two of them.
"kill!"
The six warriors all rushed towards Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao with murderous aura, with very vigorous movements and extremely fast speed.
Although Ji Tianxing's strength has fallen to the realm of body refining, his martial arts experience is still there, and his eyes are still sharp and vicious.
Just looking at the movements and speed of the six warriors, he could judge that the strength of these six people is not bad, I am afraid they all have the strength of the eighth level of body refining.
"Shhhhh!"
The six warriors wielded swords at the same time and attacked Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao.
Among them, four warriors besieged Ji Tianxing, and only two attacked Ji Hao.
Seeing the sword, light, sword and shadow slashing in front of him, Ji Tianxing subconsciously pulled out the blood dragon sword and swept out with a sword.
The four swords were shaken apart by the blood dragon sword in the sound of gold and iron chirping.
Ji Tianxing escaped the catastrophe, but was also attacked by the force of the four, and he tumbled and fell under the horse.
His tiger's mouth was cracked and bleeding, and his right arm was paralyzed, unable to exert any strength.
"kill!"
The four warriors roared again, wielding their swords and stabbing at him.
In a hurry, Ji Tianxing rolled a few times on the ground and then rolled to the side of the road.
Although he had a dirty face, he managed to escape the beheadings of the four swords and saved his life.
Seeing that, the four warriors were slaughtered like tigers, and he jumped into the woods with one leap.
At this critical juncture, a long sword suddenly burst out from the slash, and stabbed him insidiously in the chest.
Ji Tianxing caught a glimpse of the sword out of the corner of his eye, only to realize that the person who drew the sword was one of the two warriors who besieged Ji Hao.
He instantly understood that the target of these six masked killers was him!
