Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 270: family

In the evening, after more than two weeks, the airship from Karur finally reached Yiyang City, Huaiyuan County, Jinyun State. The name of the Huaiyuantang of the Zhang family is the name of the county, and the entire county is the land of the Zhang family.

For the first time, Zhang Tie felt what a family is. In the introduction of Zhang Zhitian on the airship, Zhang Tie knew that in Huaiyuan County, there were more than 200,000 members of the Zhang family with the blood of Huaiyuan's father. Strictly speaking, there are only a few people named Zhang on the airship. Among them, including the airship captain, chief mate, technician in the engine room, Zhang Zhitian, an ordinary crew member, and Zhang Tie, if you look at the genealogy of the five people, they are definitely relatives, because everyone has the blood of Duke Huaiyuan. , It just comes from different branches of Huaiyuantang.

Huaiyuan had eight-bedroom wives and more than forty children. The clansmen in each of the eight-bedroom wives gathered in one city, Yiyang City in the long room, Xince City in the second room, Stargazing City in the three room, and Stargazing City in the four room. Qihai City, Fubo City with five bedrooms, Yunzhou City with six bedrooms, Jinhai City with seven bedrooms, and Tai'an City with eight bedrooms. The bloodline of the Huaiyuan Father among these eight cities has been multiplied for hundreds of years. It is only today that this is the case. The scale.

Among the eight cities, Yiyang City is not only the county town of Huaiyuan County, but also the political, economic and cultural center of the Zhang family of Huaiyuan Hall.

Yiyang City is a city close to the sea. The prosperity and scale of the entire city are more than ten times that of Heiyan City. There are 21 million people living in this city and its surroundings. Yiyang Port is not only The largest port in Jinyun State is in the entire Weiyi subcontinent. Yiyang Port can also rank among the top three in terms of annual cargo throughput.

If Zhang Tie’s previous impression of Huaiyuantang Zhang’s family was only in the introduction of others, then when the airship approached Yiyang City, the strength and background of Huaiyuantang’s Zhang family suddenly became like this city, suddenly Standing in front of Zhang Tie made Zhang Tie feel his own insignificance and the strength of his family.

To Zhang Tie, the densely packed ships on the sea and the various airships in the sky that came and went like a crucian carp across the river, to Zhang Tie, were just like the situation in the painting.

The passengers on the deck who came from Karur City saw this scene, and many people had already exclaimed. Many of the passengers yelled in their not-so-proficient Chinese, "Yiyang... Yiyang..."

"Are you planning to settle down in Yiyang?" Zhang Zhitian asked Zhang Tie.

"I will probably go back to Jinhai City first. I don't know if I will be in Jinhai in the future!" Zhang Tie thought for a while and wanted to tell Zhang Zhitian.

"This time I come back, my three-year internship points in the airship are enough. I plan to sign up for the family's airship unit, become a real soldier, and become a captain in the future!" Zhang Zhitian said smugly.

"Then I wish you all the best..." Zhang Tie smiled.

During this period of time, Zhang Tie has probably learned about some conditions on the airship. On the airship, many young people like Zhang Zhitian under the age of eighteen are trainees on the airship. This is the talent training of the Zhang family. Mechanism. For most teenagers in Huaiyuan County, the most rebellious period of 15 to 18 years old, most people did not spend leisurely in school, but entered all walks of life as interns. Work hard, get in touch with society, accumulate qualifications and experience, and determine your future development direction. After the crown ceremony at the age of 18, you will be considered as an adult. You can enjoy many social rights and can formally join the army and be appointed to formal positions. There is a formal job. .

Compared with the talent education system like the factory assembly line in Heiyancheng, the education system of the Chinese in this era is more stringent. The weaker youngsters like Zhang Tie who have only reached the age of sixteen after the new year are in Huaiyuantang. There is absolutely no possibility of officially joining the army, let alone becoming an officer.

"I heard the chief officer say that the first time you used the crossbow arrows on those ballistas to shoot down the iron-beaked ibis, it seems to be an awakening of ancestral blood related to throwing skills?" Zhang Zhitian looked at Zhang Tie with burning eyes. , His eyes were full of envy.

Zhang Tie smiled bitterly. This is the difference in the cultural background he has been in contact with since he was a child. This problem has troubled him for a long time. In Huaiyuantang, it seems that many people know the same. After he only performed it once, he was guessed. "It should be. At first, I didn't know what was going on. It was just that suddenly, my throwing ability became very accurate. It was also before I returned to Huaiyuantang that I knew this was a Chinese. The performance of awakening the blood of the ancestors! By the way, are there any friends around you who are like me?"

"There is one. It was a classmate in my class at school. When the school held a sports meeting, his ancestors' blood suddenly awakened. Originally, his archery was mediocre. He became the archery of the school sports meeting that year. champion!"

"The blood of his awakened ancestors is related to bow and arrow?"

"Yes!" Zhang Zhitian glanced at Zhang Tie strangely, "Don't you know that one of the two strongest ancestral bloodlines of the Zhang family is the bloodline of the bow and arrow system?"

Zhang Tie smiled embarrassedly, "I really don't know!"

...

The airship finally landed at an airship base of the Changfeng Merchant Group.

After bidding farewell to a few friends I met on the airship, Zhang Tie took a simple piece of luggage and got out of the airship just like those passengers who came to Yiyang City for the first time. Zhang Tie was wondering whether to leave the airship base. When he first bought a train ticket back to Jinhai City, Zhang Tie had already seen his brother, he was with him, there were two men in black uniforms, and there was a car behind them.

"Brother!" Zhang Tie was excited, and walked up three steps in two steps. The two brothers hugged vigorously, and Zhang Yang was also a little excited. The two brothers separated this time, although it was only a few months. , But it felt like a reunion after life and death. Whether it was Zhang Tie or Zhang Tie's home, too much happened during this time, and too many ups and downs and turbulence were experienced.

"How is dad, is mom's illness cured?" Zhang Tie asked two questions as soon as the two separated.

Zhang Yangxianxian carefully looked at Zhang Tie from the beginning, and then smiled, "Dad has returned, knowing that you will return safely soon, mom's illness is also cured!"

Zhang Tie was overjoyed. He didn't expect that in these days when he was on the airship, the thing that worries him the most was solved. This is the real happy event worth celebrating, "Dad is back?"

"Well, let's talk about the specifics when we go home!" Zhang Yang gave Zhang Tie a wink, and then introduced him to the two men in uniforms next to him. "These two are the officers of the Huaiyuan Tang Sect!"

The two men nodded to Zhang Tie peacefully.

After being introduced by Zhang Zhitian on the airship, Zhang Tie already knew what the Zongren Pavilion was doing. When he came back this time, he must first whitewash and confirm his identity on the Zhang family's side. Otherwise, come by yourself. The identity of Jin Yunguo was definitely the murderer wanted by the secret police of the Norman Empire.

After introducing a few words here, four people got in the car, Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang sat in the back of the car, and the officers of the two Zongren Pavilion sat in the front, and the car drove out of the airship base all the way.

While sitting in the car, Zhang Tie briefly talked to his old brother about the various things that happened after he left the Black Flame City and arrived in the Karur War Zone. He stared at the things outside the car and sighed the prosperous city. And prosperity.

There are heavy traffic on the road, pedestrians on the street one after another, high-rise buildings on the side of the road, looking at the road, the Chinese billboards are everywhere on both sides of the road, and the pedestrians on the road, although people of all skin colors Yes, but more than 95% of them are black-haired and black-eyed Chinese. The people on the roadside shops and the laughter and conversation of children when they are playing are all in Chinese. This kind of scene makes life since childhood. Zhang Tie in Heiyan City suddenly relaxed inexplicably, and a sense of belonging came from his blood.

The so-called clan pavilion is of course not as simple as a loft. The headquarters of the clan management organization of the Huaiyuantang Zhang family is actually a 20-story square building with strict guards at the door. The reason why the people of Zongrentang brought Zhang Tie here was to complete the final confirmation of Zhang Tie's identity. The simple confirmation process was beyond Zhang Tie's expectation.

Zhang Tie was taken to a room in the mansion. On the table in the middle of the room was a strange black crystal. The crystal was set on a silver-white base with strange runes. Under personal supervision, the officer of the Zongren Pavilion who brought Zhang Tie back pierced Zhang Tie’s finger with a needle, and asked Zhang Tie to drip the blood from his finger on the crystal, and the black crystal began to light up. , The entire identification process is completed.

After completing this process, Zhang Tie took another photo here and filled in two forms. After sitting in the lounge with his brother for less than ten minutes, an officer who brought Zhang Tie carved a complicated one. The rectangular pattern card was handed to Zhang Tie.

Most of this card is made of metal, but the front and center of the card is inlaid with a transparent crystal. Under the crystal is a head portrait of Zhang Tie just photographed. Under the crystal head, Zhang Tie’s name is also engraved. Workmanship Very beautiful and special. On the back of the card, the four characters of Huaiyuan Zhang's are engraved.

"This thing is your identity certificate. You have to keep it away. If you lose it, the consequences will be serious!"

"How serious is it?"

"A fine of 100 gold coins, half a year of hard labor, and 20 points of family contribution points will be deducted!"

Zhang Tie took a slight breath. One hundred gold coins, that is 2500 grams of gold. Needless to say, half a year of hard labor, it seems that the 20 family contribution points are also quite rare.

"Is this thing worth more than gold?" Zhang Tie asked.

The secretary who gave the card to Zhang Tie smiled faintly, "There are seven precious alloys used on your identity card, among which Hailan iron and peacock copper are more than ten times the value of gold. There are several secret techniques in the manufacturing process of this plaque, which cannot be made by Zhang's. This plaque is extremely difficult to damage and cannot be restored after damage. At least in the Weiyi subcontinent, no one can copy it yet. The secret pattern on the card contains the metal two-dimensional identification code generated for you by the steam analyzer in the clan pavilion. That is your unique identity and authority mark in the family. Do you think this is important?"

These words stunned Zhang Tie, "Then ask again, what is the family contribution point?"
