Chapter 145: You are someone I trust.
Guiyuan City.
Ye Fei, cloaked, stepped into Po Yue Tower. The young man she had met the first time she arrived, Xu Huan, was there to greet her.
Ye Fei was a major customer of Po Yue Lou and was highly respected by Xie Qin Gui. As soon as she arrived, Xu Huan recognized her: "Lord Dongfang, are you here to collect your weapon?"
Ye Fei took out the jade pendant that was glowing red: "Not bad."
"Your Excellency Dongfang, please follow me to the reception room."
Xu Huan respectfully gestured to Ye Fei, then said to another waiter, "Go and call Senior Brother Qin Gui to the reception room. Tell him that Lord Dongfang has arrived."
Led by Xu Huan, Ye Fei arrived at the reception room and took a seat. Xu Huan had just served a pot of hot tea when the door was opened and Xie Qingui walked in from outside.
"Your Excellency Dongfang, you have arrived."
Xie Qingui bowed respectfully to Ye Fei, and Xu Huan, seeing this, wisely withdrew from the reception room.
Ye Fei picked up her teacup, took a sip of hot tea, and asked, "Qin Gui, have the weapons I asked you to forge been completed?"
Xie Qingui tapped his finger on the storage belt and used his mental power to retrieve the hidden weapon parts wrapped in golden silk, spreading them out on the table: "Yes, there are two sets of weapons here, as well as thirty sets each of arrows and needles. The arrows and needles have been forged in sets of ten, as you requested. Please take a look and check them, Your Excellency Dongfang."
Ye Fei's hand lightly brushed across the parts, then picked up a few to examine them. The materials used were all Crimson Flame Gold Crystal, and some parts still had patterns carved by Xie Qin Gui himself, stroke by stroke.
His dedication and hard work were what Ye Fei was most satisfied with.
Ye Fei put the parts into her ring: "The quantity is correct, and the forging technique is as good as ever. I am very satisfied."
Xie Qingui was a little embarrassed by the praise: "Being able to satisfy you is the happiest thing for me as a weapon refiner."
Ye Fei placed a food box on the table: "These are said to be the best pastries in Guiyuan City. I bought some when I passed by this shop. If you don't mind, would you like to share?"
Xie Qingui felt flattered, but he was always straightforward and generous, so he didn't mince words with Ye Fei and sat down directly opposite her: "Then I'll gladly accept your offer."
“This is another weapon I designed.” Ye Fei quickly stuffed a pastry into her mouth, then took out a parchment blueprint with plum blossom needles drawn on it from her ring. “The forging material will be the golden cicada stone that we collected in the Forest of Fireflies last time. Take a look first.”
Xie Qin Gui watched her eat the snacks with rather unrefined movements and thought to himself: Underneath this cloak, there must be a girl who doesn't care about formalities.
After only a moment's glance, Xie Qingui looked away, a hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes.
This is someone he respects; he absolutely cannot make assumptions about His Excellency Dongfang!
He took the sheepskin blueprint, opened it, and looked at it. The design on it still amazed him: "This weapon is needle-shaped, thin and short, perfect for hiding in the shadows!"
Ye Fei nodded: "You are someone I can trust, and I will not hide anything from you. All the weapons I design are called hidden weapons, and this needle is called the Plum Blossom Needle. The Plum Blossom Needle generally does not cause much damage, but is used for self-defense."
Xie Qingui blinked: "Hidden weapons? You mean weapons used in the dark?"
You can understand it that way.
"If the plum blossom needle is used as a concealed weapon for self-defense, then it does need to be forged from lightweight mineral materials like cicada stone, because it is easy to carry."
Ye Fei admired him even more: "You are indeed extraordinary. Although this is the first time you have seen such a weapon, you are able to accurately describe its true purpose based on its structure and materials."
