Chapter 50: Selling the House
PS: PS: Thanks to "Ni Yun" for the two monthly passes! Thanks to "Janpo" for the tip!
For the game now after the update, all the abnormal world features have almost disappeared. Some of the most common features and interfaces used by players to check their attributes, equipment, buy potions or weapons, and check the names of items have disappeared, just to confirm what Guang once said to Ji Xiaoyan, this game is going to become a real world.
So, as a result, a profession that had never appeared in games before began to emerge in the game world, and slowly began to emerge and become scarce in various cities and villages.
This profession is an appraiser.
Speaking of which, the appraiser's technical content is actually not high at all! If it was in the previous game, the appraiser was estimated to be able to do something, that is, when the players got something that was not unblocked, or did not know the use, etc., this could have a little business. In today's game world, it's different! No matter what weapons players are holding, what equipment they are holding, or even taking food potions, they can't see any names, attributes, or introductions!
For example, if a player hit a piece of equipment from a monster in the past, they could immediately view the name of the equipment, attributes, and text information such as the origin introduction, which was very convenient! If you want to know what the name of this equipment is, what color of equipment it is, what attributes it has, etc., then players need to take this equipment and go to a village, town, or city to find a special appraiser. Ask them to give them a look. Get yourself a certificate of authenticity for this piece of equipment!
The attributes of the equipment that can be viewed directly in the past will all be recorded in this equipment appraisal. Players can usually look it out, or they can sell the equipment and show it to the buyer with it. Finally, after the transaction is completed, the appraisal certificate and equipment are traded to the buyer together
Of course. These appraisers are not free.
This is also a small change in the income generated by the NPCs in this game world. It is also a means to encourage players to spend more.
And after that, because there are many players who don't want to spend money to do an appraisal, just to know the name of the equipment. There are also a number of NPCs in the game known as "Gamblers". And the original prototype of this so-called gamer was the NPC named Luo Ji who was forced by the old man Qingmi to give a meeting gift to Ji Xiaoyan's girl in Qingcheng
The crystal ball that Luo Ji gave Ji Xiaoyan, Ji Xiaoyan couldn't see anything except for being able to hold it in his hand and watch it! So, out of politeness, Ji Xiaoyan praised the thing as beautiful, and then put the crystal ball into his bag, and then stood in place, listening to where the old man Qingmi was enlivening the atmosphere, and quietly waiting for the head of Qinggong to come back
It wasn't until Ji Xiaoyan felt that if the old man Qingmi had found a topic to talk about, it was estimated that no one would have joined him, and Manager Qinggong finally came back at a trot.
"Elder Qingmi's room, I have already arranged the room for you," Chief Qinggong gasped and said to the old man Qingmi, "You and this you just need to follow our maids from Qingcheng and go directly!"
The old man nodded with satisfaction, and said to Mr. Qinggong like a compliment: "Okay, good, Mr. Qinggong, your speed is very good, then, girl, let's go to the room to rest first." I'll talk to you again when we're rested."
Ji Xiaoyan was about to nod, but the chief manager of Qing Gong next to him immediately spoke: "Elder Qingmi, this may not work! Our city lord is about to go to patrol the city with me at this time, you also know, our Qingcheng is not an ordinary city, and now after the renovation, it is necessary to visit every place, this trip may be a day or two, you see if you don't have anything urgent, we will wait for two days to make an appointment, okay?"
"Wait two days?" When the old man Qingmi heard this, he immediately frowned, looked at Luo Ji beside him with an embarrassed expression, and then shook his head and said to Chief Qing Gong and Ji Xiaoyan: "That's not good, girl, let's just talk about things now Luo Ji doesn't have so much time to stay in your city lord's mansion and wait for you, so let's simply talk about things first" Speaking of this, the old man Qingmi immediately glanced at Luo Ji twice, and then continued to Ji Xiaoyan: "Girl, do you still have empty shops in Qingcheng?" After the ban of the main god was lifted, Luo Ji, a stubborn old man, finally figured it out, and was ready to open a shop, and then accept some disciples and other things, and then settle in a city! Our bluestone gate is not suitable for him, so I thought of you here."
Ji Xiaoyan looked at Luo Ji in some surprise. What does the old man mean by this that the mysterious Roki in front of him is going to open a shop in their Qingcheng, close the shop by the way, and then settle in Qingcheng?
Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan immediately moved his gaze to Chief Qinggong, and after seeing that he also glanced at himself in surprise, he said, "Master Qingmi, what do you mean?"
"I mean, you just find a shop for Luo Ji!" "The old man Qingmi said unceremoniously to Ji Xiaoyan, "It's better to have a shop with a backyard, so that after he finds a disciple in the future, he can also have a place to teach his skills Anyway, there were many places in your Qingcheng before, and now after the renovation, I look like it seems to be bigger than before."
Ji Xiaoyan was stunned, and then he opened his mouth and asked the old man Qingmi: "Then how big of a house are you going to buy? The kind of house with a backyard." It seems like we built a lot of them when we first built them."
Mr. Qinggong thought that the matter introduced by the old man Qingmi would definitely not receive the money, and he would give it away for nothing. He didn't expect that as soon as the lord of his family opened his mouth, he would directly ask the price, and typically, he euphemistically told Elder Sù Qingmi that they had to prepare gold coins to get the shop and the house Thinking of this, Chief Qinggong silently gave Ji Xiaoyan ten thousand likes in his heart
"Girl, what do you say? What do you mean to buy a house?" When the old man Qingmi heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, he immediately said to her with some annoyance: "It's good if you just send one to Luo Ji! What do you buy! What are you talking about!!" No wonder the old man Qingmi will be annoyed, when Luo Ji walked to their bluestone gate, he was ready to leave within two days after he walked to their bluestone gate, and then he encountered the forbidden thing of the main god. That's why they stayed at their bluestone gate! He has been thinking about Ji Xiaoyan's Qingcheng, so he has been bragging to Luo Ji about how good his relationship with Ji Xiaoyan is, if he wants to choose a city to settle in, he must choose Qingcheng. When the time comes, he only needs to follow him to Qingcheng. Houses, houses and things like settling in. He Qingmi directly solved it all for him, and he didn't need a little gold coins!
But listen to it now, he hasn't bragged in front of Miss Ji Xiaoyan. Was this girl directly and ruthlessly exposed his weakness to buy a house? Just kidding, who of the people from their Qingshi Gate went out with gold coins? Besides, when Miss Ji Xiaoyan attacked Qingcheng, the one from their Qingshi Gate didn't come to help? How long has Miss Ji Xiaoyan been following him? Can't he even ask for a room?
Thinking of this, the old man Qingmi suddenly looked at Ji Xiaoyan with some unhappiness.
Chief Qinggong looked at the old man Qingmi's expression was a little unpleasant, his eyes suddenly rolled twice, and he quickly spoke and said softly: "Hehe, Elder Qingmi, what you said is right, what you said is right." What is the relationship between you and the city lord, it is naturally no problem to ask for a room" Chief Qinggong said while observing the face of the old man Qingmi, and seeing that after he heard his words, his face looked a lot better, so he continued: "However, there is a little Elder Qingmi, as the head of this Qingcheng, I still want to tell you about it."
The old man raised his eyebrows and looked at the head of Qing Gong, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd! As long as it was given to the house, everything else was none of his business, and he wouldn't care!
"The two of you came from outside the City Lord's Mansion, and naturally they also saw that our Qingcheng had been rebuilt, and all the places were completely new, and they felt vibrant and gorgeous, right?"
The old man nodded and interjected: "That's why I told Sù Roki, if he comes to Qingcheng, he will definitely not starve to death!"
Chief Qinggong shook his eyelids without a trace, glanced at Ji Xiaoyan, who was staring at him expressionlessly, and continued to speak to the old man Qingmi: "But, Elder Qingmi, there are many things you don't know!
"What? Where did the boxes full of treasures go? Were they stolen by thieves? Who dared to be so bold?" As soon as the old man Qingmi heard what Qing Gong said, he immediately raised his eyebrows and asked: "Ya, who is so rampant? Even the treasure house of our city lord's mansion dares to steal it?"
Chief Qinggong looked at the old man Qingmi with a little crying and laughing, and then said honestly: "No one came to steal the treasure house of our city lord's mansion, and those belongings were used in all the renovation projects of this Qing City, go to Elder Qingmi, you can imagine how many gold coins were used for the renovation and reconstruction of my Qing City."
"It's all used up, not a single gold coin left?" The old man Qingmi looked at the head of Qing Gong in a daze and asked, and then suddenly had a flash of inspiration, stared at the head of Qing Gong tightly and said: "Manager Qing Gong, you said so much, won't it be just to sue me, the gold coins and property in the treasure house have been used up, and if we are in Qingcheng in the future, we will have to solve the food by ourselves, you don't cover the food and lodging of me and Luo Ji, are you going to let us go back to Qingshimen by ourselves?"
Chief Qing Gong looked at the old man Qingmi with some surprise, he didn't mean this at all! Even if their city lord's mansion was poor, didn't they know how to go to the city to pay on credit? Can't they afford to support the two of them? How long did the elder of the Qingshi Gate have in his brain!
"Elder Qingmi, we're talking about the house now, not the matter of eating!" Chief Qinggong sighed silently, and then looked at Old Man Qingmi and said a little weakly.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes!" The old man nodded immediately, glared at the head of Qing Gong and asked, "Then what does it have to do with the fact that there is no money in the treasure house just now?
Chief Qing Gong rolled his eyes at the sky weakly, and then said to the old man Qingmi: "Elder Qingmi, what I want to say is that we used up all the belongings in the treasure house and used it for this matter of rebuilding and building the Qing City. Now we don't have a single copper coin in our treasure house, and it must be no problem for our City Lord's Mansion to have so many people to give you a room, but just like this, our City Lord's Mansion is really a little tight, you see?"
Hearing this, the old man Qingmi finally knew what Mr. Qing Gong meant!
"Chief Qinggong, why did you ask me for money?" the old man Qingmi looked surprised.
Chief Qinggong sighed, his face was full of apologies, and said to the old man Qingmi: "Elder Qingmi, you also know the character of our city lord. If in the past, you didn't want a room, you just wanted a house on the street, then there was absolutely no problem, and it was given to you for free!" Originally, I went to patrol the city today, and the city lord and I were going to see what houses there were, and after we were ready to sell, our city lord's mansion, which maintained the livelihood of our city lord's mansion, really couldn't turn around at this time."
"How much?" The old man Qingmi stared at the head of Qing Gong depressedly, and did not answer, but Luo Ji next to him raised his face hidden in the black cloak, looked at the head of Qing Gong with his golden pupils and asked: "How many gold coins do you want, you can say it directly"
Manager Qinggong glanced at Ji Xiaoyan, and saw that there was no displeasure on her face, as if she wanted to leave the matter to herself, so she thought about it and said to Luo Ji and the old man Qingmi: "Just open this mouth to Elder Qingmi, we can't ask for many gold coins, we just need to mean it, just give ten gold coins, what do you think?"
