Master Karu was 77 this year, and one of Eastern Cloud's otten to know theHe was confident of the man's skills
Master Karu entered the study and bowed to Sun Sieha, ”Your Majesty, you summoned me?” Master Karu's hair had all turned white He looked sharp despite the deep wrinkles sprawled all over his face He was obviously uni his work
Sun Sieha smiled, unoffended, ”Master Karu, please have a seat I have so to ask you”
Master Karu nodded and sat down
”Have you seen the cannon array, Master Karu?” Sun Sieha asked
When Karu heard the question from Sun Sieha, his eyes lit up immediately He replied quickly, ”I have, I have! I've done a round of tests on the cannon array It is truly powerful! Where did you obtain this powerful and huge cannon array, Your Majesty?”
Sun Sieha smiled and did not answer him immediately Instead, he continued calmly, ”I have seen the abilities of that weapon, but, from your professional viewpoint, Master Karu, you must surely understand more about it Could you explain the weapon to me briefly?”
”I see,” Master Karu nodded, his eyes shi+ning enthusiastically as he spoke ence, but this officer of yours has never seen anything so powerful and yet so lightweight It's built with advanced technology, and the design is unique I have never heard of anything like it Thepart of the cannon array was its internal structure I believe that it is designed based on knowledge that is far beyond everything we have learned in the field It's hter Some of our more powerful aircrafts can probably lift these cannon arrays If we can produce these cannon arrays on a larger scale, our th can be iret to infor the weapon, there are still ure out”
Sun Sieha was at first overjoyed, but his mood took a nosedive at Master Karu's final sentence ”Master Karu, do you think you can reproduce this weapon?”
Master Karu confessed, ”Your Majesty, there are still s that I do not understand about this weapon The weaponsmith behind this cannon array must be truly extraordinary! May I enquire as to how Your Majesty came to obtain this weapon?”
Sun Sieha had hoped that Master Karu could at least reproduce the cannon array, but his hopes were dashed He was heavily disappointed, and replied disht it?” Master Karu was shocked ”What country could possibly come up with such advanced weaponry?”
Sun Sieha shook his head and explained, ”It's not a country, just a weaponsmith”
Master Karu was even more surprised now ”Which weaponsmith? Who is the person behind this ”
”Ye Chong? I have never heard of the nahed, ”To think there could be such a talented h to start his own school of teaching What a capable hly of fareat man now? If it pleases Your Majesty, I would like visit him as soon as possible to know more”
”Great man?” Sun Sieha had an odd expression his face
”What is it, Your Majesty? This Master is many times more capable than this officer of yours I a to ad Master Karu's seriousness and his white hair, and co man, Sun Sieha could not help but explained, ”Master Karu, this great man you speak of is in fact only in his twenties”
”Impossible!” Master Karu rejected the idea iht at Sun Sieha and said, ”Your Majesty, please do not jest withhow serious Master Karu was, Sun Sieha could only clarify, ”I' He really is only about 20 years old He had come to Su City with me, and now lives in the vicinity of the capital”
Master Karu saw that Sun Sieha was being honest He muttered to himself with an unreadable expression, ”20 years old! 20 years old! Can there really be a person as born a genius?”
He gathered hiently, ”Please introduce me to this weapons's cold and uninviting face He frowned and said helplessly, ”Let's set this matter aside for the moment We'll talk about it later Don't worry, Master Karu, I will put you in touch with hi troubled by the ently, ”With such a talented man by your side, ould you feel troubled, Your Majesty?”
”I am worried about the cannon arrays”
”If that weapons to sell, then Your Majesty can always purchase more What's there to worry about?” Master Karu could not understand
”He's only willing to sell two of thelance at Karu with a pained expression and continued, ”Each cannon array costs 20 million ao”
”20 – 20 million ao …” Master Karu was speechless
Sun Sieha nodded and added, ”That's 20 ht to buy a few more of them, but it will be impossible to arm the entire military with it”
”This price ” Master Karu could not say another word for a long while Finally, he h price! I have inspected the cannon array Based on the materials used, it should cost no more than 8 thousand ao”
When Master Karu revealed this, Sun Sieha felt even bitter about it He was silent for a long rily, ”What a thief!”
Master Karu y is worth the price Your Majesty, you should be careful, if another country is able to procure one of these weapons …”
Sun Sieha nodded, understanding hireehts to purchase his weapons”
