The multi-speed Bicycle launched by Quan Yi was designed a year ago.

Since there have been no competitors so far, he has not yet made any moves.

However, now a competitor has emerged that could threaten their leading position.

Therefore, Quan Yi directly chose to take action to suppress it.

However, Quan Yi didn't go too far. Instead, he appropriately increased the technical difficulty to test the opponent's skill level.

However, his gentle probing was a heavy burden for the other side.

"According to the report that came in today, Lou Gao and his team directly reduced the price by 5,000 to barely sell today's quantity."

Quan Yi flicked the report in his hand and explained the truth to Blacksmith Yuan.

Blacksmith Yuan said, "It's really terrible. Master Lou's products are clearly of very good quality, but the price has been cut in half."

Quan Yi, "People who can afford high-end Bicycle care about two things: quality and reputation."

Lou Gao's products are inferior imitations of ours. Not only are they of slightly lower quality than ours, but they also give people a low-class impression.

Before this, they were able to attract customers with similar quality.

However, now that we're selling a new, more powerful product for 10,000 Gold Soul Coin, they obviously can't maintain their current price.

Business is ruthless. While Quan Yi's strategy of maintaining the original price will cause them losses, the losses on the other side will be even greater.

Quan Yi was not bothered by such competition; on the contrary, he was even more delighted.

Because the current situation is exactly what Quan Yi had hoped for.

He desperately needs Advanced Blacksmith like Lou Gao.

The research, experience, and wisdom they brought Quan Yi. They not only greatly enhanced the foundation of the research, but also accelerated the study of ironware.

Now that they've walked right into our trap, Quan Yi is naturally going to accept it all.

However, before subduing him, Quan Yi still needs to test him properly. He doesn't just look at his skills, but also his personality and character.

Most importantly, you must join the Quan Family Quan Family and obey their orders.

Therefore, Quan Yi Lou Gao launched the first round of probing.

After the multi-speed Bicycle went on sale, the popularity of Quan Yi Bicycle Shop surged again.

Customers who had previously purchased the original version also came specifically to buy the new product.

The multi-speed Bicycle has a top speed twice as fast as the original, and it can also adapt to complex terrain by changing gears.

Its powerful features attracted everyone's attention.

Conversely, the Bicycle shops on the Lou Gao are also thriving.

However, the clientele has become much more sophisticated. Those who were previously unable to afford exorbitant sums of money can now purchase high-quality Bicycle at low prices.

If it weren't in Saus City, but elsewhere, the Lou Gao could have been sold for a higher price.

However, Lou Gao did not choose to back down, but instead remained in Saus City.

A week later, Lou Gao finally launched a counterattack.

Shops on Lou Gao.

Today, they actually launched a brand new multi-speed Bicycle.

Although this is just a simplified version of a multi-speed Bicycle with low, medium, and high gears.

However, the fact that it could be replicated to this extent in just one week shows that the Godly Blacksmith's skill should not be underestimated.

Forging Room, after hearing the news that his Lou Gao Lou Gao Brand Gear Bicycle, priced at six Gold Soul Coin, had been sold, Lou Gao slumped into a wooden chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

Lou Gao's once plump and chubby body had become noticeably thinner in just one week, and his eyes were bloodshot.

There was no joy in his eyes, only doubt and desolation.

Lou Gao's weakness was all because he had been working tirelessly on his research and forging for a week.

Although it's just a simple addition of a few gears, the complexity involved far exceeds expectations.

Apart from Lou Gao himself and his few disciples, no other Blacksmith could complete such a delicate project.

After personally forging it, Lou Gao gained a deeper understanding of the difficulty involved, and also realized the huge gap between the two sides.

With the research, it took a week to barely manage to create a poor imitation.

At that moment, he began to have serious doubts about his forging skills.

He slumped into his chair and murmured, "There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. I never imagined that there would be such a skilled Blacksmith in the Douluo Continent."

Seeing that Lou Gao was somewhat dejected, Si Long quickly comforted him, "Master, we're just a step behind others. As long as we continue our research, it won't be long before we can build Bicycle that's even stronger than this one."

At this moment, Lou Gao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly burst into laughter, saying, "Si Long, I'm not feeling frustrated, I'm feeling happy! I never thought that at this age, I would actually see the hope for the Blacksmith's rise."

I'm too busy laughing to be sad.

Seeing Lou Gao's unusual emotional fluctuations, Si Long couldn't help but worry about Lou Gao's mental state.

After all, Lou Gao is getting old and his energy is not what it used to be. Si Long is worried that Lou Gao will overreact after the setback.

However, Si Long underestimated Lou Gao. Lou Gao's passion for forging was unparalleled. A setback did not discourage him; on the contrary, it fueled his enthusiasm even more.

At that moment, a raw, youthful voice came from Forging Room.

"Haha, as expected of the Divine General Lou Gao, his heart is as hard as steel forged through a thousand hammers."

"Who is it!"

Lou Gao quickly stood up and looked around warily.

Si Long reacted quickly, standing beside Lou Gao Lou Gao to protect his safety.

The speaker didn't sound very old, but the ability to clearly hear the sounds of Iron Forging amidst the noise was a skill that few could achieve.

At that moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Forging Room.

Lou Gao's pupils contracted slightly, but his heart was in turmoil. He thought to himself, "I just checked the doorway. When did this guy appear at the door?"

"Haha, Master Lou came to this city just to find me, didn't he? What, now that I've come to you in person, Master Lou 're not welcoming me?"

The speaker was Quan Yi.

Lou Gao's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and he became extremely uneasy.

It should be noted that although he was the president of the Blacksmith Association, he was powerless to resist a truly Soul Grandmaster family.

"Are you from the Quan Family?" Lou Gao asked cautiously.

Quan Yi smiled faintly and said, "That's right."

"My apologies, my apologies. I am Lou Gao, the president of the Blacksmith Association. May I ask what brings you here today?" Lou Gao stepped forward, cupped his hands, and asked.

Quan Yi said, "Since Master Lou has asked, I will get straight to the point."

"I've come here to invite Master Lou to join our Quan Family."

Quan Yi's words, like a thunderclap, plunged the noisy Forging Room into silence.

However, the crisp sound of the fire crackling in the stove was exceptionally clear.
