After returning to his family, Ye Li spent a few days in a peaceful life of cultivation, practicing talismans and learning how to cast instruments.
After assigning all the Xuan-level weaponsmiths, Niu Qianjin inspected each shop again, and the details of the cooperation with the Ye family were completely worked out.
Afterwards, he returned to live in the Ye family compound, and he often visited Ye Li. Ye Li would go to him to ask him about the method of casting instruments whenever he had nothing to do.
At first, Ye Li was a little worried that he would disturb his second senior brother too much, and felt embarrassed to go there too often.
Later, after Niu Qianjin saw through it, he smiled and told him not to worry about it. Before he left, Ou Qianxie had instructed him to teach Ye Li how to cast weapons on his behalf, so it was only right for him to teach Ye Li.
After that, Ye Li felt relieved and went to ask Niu Qianjin for advice whenever he had nothing to do.
On that day, he was at Niu Qianjin's residence, listening to Niu Qianjin explaining some of his experiences in casting tools, when Ye Wujiu suddenly came over with a look of confusion on his face.
After entering the house, Ye Li said, "Grandpa, did you encounter any problems? You look a little strange."
Ye Wujiu nodded and said, "Ah, I do have some doubts in my heart, so I came to discuss it with Xiaoniu. Ye Li, you are here too, so come and listen together.
As you all know, we have been processing all the orders we had received since ten days ago, and the delivery dates for these orders have arrived one after another from five days ago until yesterday, but no buyer has come to pick up the goods.
All the buyers chose to postpone delivery without any prior agreement, but did not set a specific time for the final delivery.
Although we know that they were arranged by the Luo family, we don’t know what they mean by doing this now.”
After hearing this, Ye Li was slightly stunned and said, "Grandpa, does anyone know that we have completed the order?"
Ye Wujiu was stunned for a moment, and said: "No one should know that our remaining orders were completed privately by the people brought by Xiao Niu, and were not done together with other ordinary orders."
Ye Li thought for a moment and said, "That's easy to explain. It seems that the Luo family didn't even know that we had already placed the order.
The weaponsmith competition organized by the Luo family will be held in two days. If they want to beat us to death with these means, they will naturally hit the vital points.
I guess they wanted to have those who placed the orders come to us to deliver the goods in front of everyone after they won the weaponsmith competition.
If we didn't complete those orders, they would make a scene with us in front of everyone, blow it up and discredit us.
But now we don't have to be afraid of them, we have completed all the orders.
Moreover, we can also borrow their strategy. When they come to make trouble, we will hand over all the goods to them in front of everyone.
Then, we will use the sufficient attention they attract to publicize our cooperation with Foundry Hall and officially change the name to Foundry Hall.
Humph, in this casting competition, as long as Second Senior Brother wins first place and we perfectly hand over the previous order in front of everyone, then all the calculations of the Luo family before will become our help and help the publicity and promotion of the Casting Hall. "
After hearing Ye Li's words, Ye Wujiu's face also showed a hint of joy.
He didn't understand the Luo family's intentions for a while, but after Ye Li's reminder, he immediately figured it out.
"Ye Li, your inference should be correct. The reason why the Luo family didn't set the delivery date on the day of the competition was because they were afraid that we would notice the abnormality in advance and not accept the order.
Their plan was carefully planned. After taking away our two Xuan-level weaponsmiths, the Luo family knew that we only relied on the last one person. Even if we were given a few more days until the weaponsmith competition, we would not be able to complete the order, so they deliberately postponed the delivery date of all orders.
Humph, they have a plan in mind. Anyway, we have already accepted the order. Even if we know that everything is arranged by them, there is no way to change anything.
Fortunately, Ye Li, you contacted Master Ou in time, and we also reached a cooperative relationship with the Foundry Hall, so we were able to perfectly crack the other party's trick."
Ye Wujiu said with a look of relief on his face.
He did not stay any longer after that. Since he had guessed the other party's plan, he had to go down and prepare, and take the opportunity to give the Luo family a big "surprise" later.
Soon, two days passed and it was the day of the weapon casting competition held by the Luo family.
The venue of the competition was not arranged in the city, but at the junction of Shanhai County and its two adjacent counties: Katayama County and Tianhong County.
At the junction of the three counties, there is a small town called Qishan Town. There are many casting shops in Qishan Town, all of which are established by families and some small chambers of commerce in the three counties. Many casual spiritual practitioners and martial talisman masters will come here to buy talisman weapons, talisman armor and talisman treasures.
Although this is just a town, it is sometimes even more lively than the city.
Ye Li also came to Qishan Town with Niu Qianjin and his uncle Ye Huaicang on the previous night. After all, the competition was at noon the next day, and they would not be able to make it if they set out from Dahuang City in the morning.
The Ye family also had a convoy that followed, but they did not stay in Qishan Town. Instead, they found a place to camp outside the town. They brought with them various goods from the previous orders.
That night, Ye Li was still chatting with Niu Qianjin in the inn. Although the next day was the competition day, Niu Qianjin did not feel nervous at all.
Ye Li naturally knew the ability of his senior brother. As an earth-level weaponsmith, participating in a competition between weaponsmiths from small forces was simply bullying.
Even if the Luo family had the help of the Panshan family, Ye Li believed that they would never send out an Earth-level weaponsmith. After all, Earth-level weaponsmiths were rare even for a fourth-grade family like the Panshan family.
Time quickly came to the next morning. Ye Li, Niu Qianjin and Ye Huaicang left the inn on time and headed towards the square in the center of the town.
The Luo family had already built a venue for the competition in the huge square in the center of the town.
At this time, the town center was also crowded with people. In addition to the forces participating in the weapon casting competition who had sent people to cheer, there were also a lot of lively people who gathered here waiting to watch the next game.
Near noon, Ye Huaicang, together with other forces, confirmed with the Luo family that the contestants they sent had arrived.
The Luo family also immediately sent out the host of the competition and walked to the center of the huge stage.
