Chapter 91: Standard Armament Manual

“Superintendent Zhou, if you have anything to say, just say it. I’m flustered by your behavior.” Yang Hong sat cautiously in his chair.

Logically speaking, he was a constable of the Divine Constable Bureau and had a chance of becoming a divine constable in the future. When facing a workshop superintendent, even if he wasn’t high and mighty, at least he wouldn’t be so fearful.

Strictly speaking, a constable of the Divine Constable Bureau had a higher rank than a workshop superintendent of the Forging Division.

But once he saw this person in front of him, Yang Hong involuntarily recalled the scene of that day.

The second master of the Mi family, an apprentice whom the emperor had specially allowed to attend the military parade, suspected to have an unclear relationship with the princess…

Any one of these points was enough for Yang Hong to attach importance to Zhou Shu. No matter how much attention he gave Zhou Shu, it was not excessive!

“Constable Yang, we can be considered acquaintances after what happened. There’s no need to be so nervous when old friends meet and chat, right?” Zhou Shu smiled.

“Let me introduce you. This is Lieutenant Cheng Yong of the Huben Troops. He’s also my friend.”

Cheng Yong was a little flattered as he stood up and cupped his hands. “Nice to meet you!”

“Yang Hong.” Yang Hong cupped his hands in return.

He still felt a bit strange. Zhou Shu had invited him to drink for no reason, so he had no choice but to come.

What was the meaning of this?

“Gentlemen, I’m a little short on cash, so I can only treat the two of you to a drink here. Please excuse me if I have been inconsiderate in any way,” Zhou Shu said with a smile.

“No, no. This place is very good,” Yang Hong and Cheng Yong said at the same time.

Yang Hong’s imagination ran wild. Is Superintendent Zhou planning to borrow money from me?

There is no reason for him to do so. Why would the second master of the Mi family lack money?

Everyone knows that the Mi family is the richest family in Great Xia.

“I still have some savings. If Superintendent Zhou needs it urgently—” Yang Hong said.

Zhou Shu was speechless. What is Yang Hong thinking?

Does he think I want to borrow money from him because I said I’m short on cash?

It was true that he didn’t have any money on hand now, but he wasn’t so poor that he needed to borrow money from others. If he really wanted to borrow money, wouldn’t it be better to borrow from Mi Zhifu than to find them?

“Superintendent Zhou, my expenditure is usually a lot. I don’t have much savings, but I can still give you one or two hundred taels. I just don’t know if it will help…” Cheng Yong chimed in.

Zhou Shu was rendered speechless. Why are you joining in the fun?!

“Misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding!” Zhou Shu said. “I’m not looking to borrow money from you.

“I’m really just looking for you guys to drink and chat!”

“Really?” Yang Hong looked doubtful.

One who was unaccountably solicitous was hiding evil intentions!

He knew that he didn’t have much of a relationship with Zhou Shu, and his last interaction with him was not very positive.

He didn’t believe that Zhou Shu would drink with him for no reason.

“Really,” Zhou Shu said sincerely. “However, I do have something that I need your help with.”

That was right.

Instead, Yang Hong heaved a sigh of relief and said, “If there’s anything, please say it. I will definitely help if I can.”

Yang Hong didn’t reject, but he also didn’t over promise.

“How’s the investigation of Xiao Zongshui’s case going?” Zhou Shu asked.

Although he had used the Spring Embroidered Saber to exchange for some information from Ma Fengzhang, it was impossible for Ma Fengzhang to always be his source of information. The so-called strategic partner was just Zhou Shu fooling Sun Gongping.

Zhou Shu really had no way of knowing about such cases.

“Have you caught the murderer?” Zhou Shu continued asking.

“No.” Yang Hong shook his head. This was no secret either. He opened his mouth and said, “Xiao Zongshui and Zhen Cai died because their souls were destroyed by someone. The person who attacked has a cultivation level no lower than the third rank in the Martial Dao!

“According to our deductions, the two of them must have seen something they shouldn’t have seen and were killed by an expert. There is no way of investigating a third-rank expert.”

Even the boss of the Divine Constable Bureau, Ma Fengzhang, was only a third-rank martial artist.

A third-rank martial artist had already transcended mortality. Ordinary laws could no longer restrain them.

Moreover, if a third-rank martial artist wanted to hide their whereabouts, there was no way the Divine Constable Bureau would be able to find them.

“The case is closed just like that?” Zhou Shu asked, relieved. Although he was sure that he had not left any traces, who could guarantee that the Divine Constable Bureau didn’t have any special methods?

“For now,” Yang Hong said. “There are countless cases like this one in the Divine Constable Bureau. What can we do if we can’t conclude it?

“What happened last time was a misunderstanding. I apologize for offending you, Superintendent Zhou.” Yang Hong raised his wine cup and downed it in one gulp.

He thought that Zhou Shu had brought up this matter because he wanted to settle scores with him. After all, he had almost tortured Zhou Shu back then. Anyone else would have been furious.

Yang Hong was also an open-minded person. Although he had a clear conscience, when it was time to lower his head, he would do it unequivocally.

A case was a case. But when it didn’t involve a case, there was no need to offend someone like Zhou Shu, who obviously had a powerful background.

“Constable Yang, you are being too polite. You just have public interest at heart.” Zhou Shu shook his head. He raised his cup and drank a cup of wine. “I admire you greatly.”

He changed the topic and continued, “I’m just asking casually. After all, the victim is one of my colleagues. But this isn’t the favor I’d like to ask for your help.”

“Please say it, Superintendent Zhou. I am a boor, but I will not hesitate to help you.” Cheng Yong patted his chest.

He had originally wanted to befriend Zhou Shu. Now that an opportunity had presented itself, why would he hesitate?

“Actually, it’s not a big deal.” Zhou Shu smiled and gestured for the two of them to eat. “As you know, I am the superintendent of a Forging Division workshop. Our workshop has our own tasks.

“I recently developed a new standard weapon. We have to sell this weapon ourselves. However, I don’t know many people in the forces. Can you introduce someone to me?”

Yang Hong and Cheng Yong looked at each other and saw the meaning in each other’s eyes.

Although the two of them could be considered officials, they were about the same as Zhou Shu.

They were completely incapable of reaching out to the higher-ranking officials.

They had absolutely no connections to the people purchasing weapons in the army.

“Superintendent Zhou, it’s not that I don’t want to help. It’s just that… I’m not a soldier.” Yang Hong smiled bitterly.

“The two of you have misunderstood. I don’t want you to help me promote it.” Zhou Shu could tell that the two of them were in a difficult position.

He smiled and said, “I want the two of you to help me advertise the power of my saber.”

“Among your friends, help me publicize this saber and let everyone know about it.”

“Is this the saber?” Cheng Yong saw the saber in Zhou Shu’s hand.

The Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber!

Yin Wuyou had already instructed the workshop superintendents not to reveal anything about the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber.

But she had forgotten about Zhou Shu.

Who would have thought that Zhou Shu would be so anxious to promote the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber!

Thankfully, Zhou Shu didn’t recite any poetry this time.

“Yes, this saber is called the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber. Its power is similar to the Divine Constable Bureau’s Spring Embroidered Saber,” Zhou Shu said. “Our grand minister appreciates this saber very much. Even His Majesty says that this saber is very good.”

The last sentence was just Zhou Shu blabbering. In any case, there was no way to verify it. How could they confront the emperor?

However, the emperor really did say it.

“It’s similar to our Spring Embroidered Sabers?” Yang Hong’s interest was piqued.

Not long ago, the Divine Constable Bureau had distributed the first batch of Spring Embroidered Sabers to the constables who had yet to enter the ranks. Yang Hong had also received one. This Spring Embroidered Saber was much better than the sabers they used before.

Not only was it more powerful, but it was also beautiful and suited his temperament.

He sized up the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber with a look of approval. This saber’s appearance was indeed as beautiful as the Spring Embroidered Saber.

“This is a good saber.” Yang Hong nodded. After all, he was a bit more quick-witted than Cheng Yong, so he quickly understood Zhou Shu’s intentions.

“Superintendent Zhou, are you trying to make the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber known to the generals of the Country Protector Army so that they will come buy it?”

“Exactly.” Zhou Shu nodded and gave him a thumbs up.

There were too many types of standard weapons. Deeply buried gold couldn’t shine. If not for the fact that there was no advertising industry in this world, Zhou Shu would have gone to advertise it.

“Superintendent Zhou, you’ve found the wrong people.” Yang Hong laughed. “You don’t even need us.”

“What do you mean?” Zhou Shu asked in confusion.

“Superintendent Zhou, have you forgotten about the Heavenly Mountain Villa’s Standard Armament Manual?” Yang Hong answered with a question.

“Heavenly Mountain Villa? Standard Armament Manual?” Zhou Shu felt like he had heard it before, but he didn’t have a deep impression of it. He cupped his hands and asked, “I would like to hear the details.”

Yang Hong was somewhat puzzled. A workshop superintendent of the Forging Division didn’t know about the Standard Armament Manual?

Cheng Yong didn’t have this doubt. He knew that Zhou Shu had started out as a Forging Apprentice and didn’t know much about these things, so he explained, “The Heavenly Mountain Villa is a mysterious organization. No one knows where they are. However, they release the armament manual ranking every year.”

“Does everyone trust the armament manual rankings they release?” Zhou Shu was puzzled.

He could understand the armament manual. Was it similar to his Legendary Armament Canon?

Or was it similar to the Forging Divison’s armament manual?

The Forging Division also had an armament manual internally that recorded all the armaments of the Forging Division. It could be considered a product introduction.

As for rankings, Zhou Shu had seen quite a few in his previous life, but not many had credibility.

“Of course they do. The armament manual rankings announced by the Heavenly Mountain Villa have never been wrong,” Cheng Yong said.

“That powerful?” Zhou Shu exclaimed.

Yang Hong nodded “The Heavenly Mountain Villa could be said to have the most powerful information channels on the continent. There aren’t many things that they don’t know. The Heavenly Mountain Villa’s armament manual is split into the Standard Armament Manual and the Ranked Armament Manual. The Standard Armament Manual records all the standard armaments in the world. In my opinion, this Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber and the Spring Embroidered Saber can be ranked at the top of the Standard Armament Manual.. When the time comes, you won’t have to worry that no one will know about them.”
