034 sharpen knives and chop wood

If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools, and as the supreme leader of the Corps, Wushuang naturally understands it very well, so after leaving the Ranger Union, the six members of the underworld will go to the Ranger Street.

However, this time their purpose is not to sharpen their swords, but to sharpen their swords, and after the task of escorting Long Shu is over, it will naturally be enough for Wushuang to have money in his waist bag.

The armor and swords that were originally captured during the ambush of the Sky Wolf Legion are now unfavorable, and they actually plan to sell them and then look for a better outfit.

In Wushuang's words, since the Corps has been listed, it must have the appearance of the Corps.

The first thing is the unification of equipment, the unity of the logo, no matter how you say it, the name of the underworld is not (it seems that the underworld is not famous), of course, no one dares to say this.

Lanqi City is famous all over the world, it is not only the capital of the Lanchi Empire, but also one of the oldest capitals in the famous history of the mainland. It is also the largest city on the mainland.

The population alone accounts for more than 20 million.

Although this number is more than any medium-sized city on the planet, it is already a very staggering population density compared to the vast and sparsely populated world of Wanluo.

The city of Lanchi not only has a large population, but also covers an area quite amazing, even half the area of Shanghai City, the oldest city of the Asian federal government on the earth.

The whole city was built in a very bizarre Bagua shape, with eight thick and tall walls, each of which had a main gate and two secondary gates. The design of the entire city reminds Qingshan of the oldest war castle in Chinese civilization, the Hakka walled house. However, it also has a lot to do with the unique geography of the whole Lanchi City. The entire Lanqi City is surrounded by plains on all sides, and there are no natural barriers to rely on, so it can only create such a bizarre gossip formation.

And there are no city walls with barracks, soldiers, and barracks necklaces in all directions in the city. It can be said that the entire city was designed with the elements of war in mind. In the event of a war, the city's garrisons can appear in the most needed areas in the shortest possible time.

This is the fundamental reason why the entire Ranchi City was designed and manufactured into this strange gossip formation.

The long 5,000-year history of the Lanch Empire is also a long history of war, and bloody invasion and expansion seem to be the innate nature of all intelligent civilizations. Even if there are different civilizations, different races, different regions, but the cruel and murderous nature does not seem to make much difference.

In fact, in the more than 5,000 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Great City of Lanchi has experienced no less than 50 wars, and it can be said that each time it was on the verge of annihilation, but in the end, it was the amazing defense of the Great City of Lanqi that it survived and finally defeated the invaders.

It can be said that the Great City of Ranchi is the last steel fortress of the entire Ranchi Empire.

On the mainland, the city of Lanchi has another resounding name - the steel capital. This shows how famous the defense capability of the Great City of Lanchi is on the mainland.

When he came to this world, there were three cities that Qingshan had seen: Nara City, Tassel City, and White Sand City. But these three cities together may not even be a tenth of the size of the great city of Ranchi.

The group walked for about an hour before they arrived at their destination, Ranger Street. The so-called Ranger Street, the things sold are naturally closely related to the Rangers. Everything the Ranger needs and doesn't need can be bought here.

And here is not only it, but it is also the best. Here are some of the world's best alchemists, alchemists, and swordsmiths. Of course, if you want to move them, you must have enough gold.

Among the group, only Long Hao had ever been to Lanchi City. So he can be regarded as an acquaintance compared to everyone.

It is only natural that he should lead the way.

Ranger Street.

The street is crowded with people, and the stalls and commercial buildings on both sides are full of all kinds of strange and dazzling goods. Swords, armor, ammunition, and much more.

Everywhere there are strange people and strangers of the Fangang of foreign races, and their origins and races can be easily seen from their costumes.

The White Sun Empire worships gold, so most of their armor is gold, and they also like to wear golden headbands or turbans on their heads.

The Red Moon Empire admires red and likes to wear red robes and red armor.

The Frost Empire admires white and likes to wear white robes and white armor.

And the Lanchi Empire admires blue, so most of them like to wear blue robes and blue armor.

In addition to the four empires, there are other small countries, each with its own characteristics, and its own dress.

However, to Aoyama's surprise, there are not only all kinds of knives, armor, elixir mounts, and other items closely related to the rangers.

There are even living people for sale. That is, the specialty of the Wanluo Continent - slaves.

Along the way, many slaves with the highest marks were sold along the streets. Among them were men, women, and children.

It is said that these were plundered during the war. There were defeated soldiers, but more often than not, innocent civilians.

This made Aoyama unbelievable - slaves, the ugliest cancer in human civilization, had disappeared from the Galactic Federation for almost six thousand years, and Aoyama's understanding of them only came from limited historical information.

A real slave he had never seen with his own eyes. But today I saw it in this strange continent.

All slaves were rebranded with shame on their foreheads.

On the mainland, slaves had no personal freedom, and anyone could erase their existence at will, without paying any legal responsibility.

From their eyes, Aoyama saw indifference, despair, and humiliation. There were even a few good-looking people who wantonly ** in the name of inspecting the goods, which made Qingshan stunned and angry, but he couldn't have a seizure.

Because he was surprised to find that both Wushuang and Supreme Jiaoluo seemed to be accustomed to these, and the other pedestrians on the street were all as usual, and even many of them gathered together to judge the few female slaves who were **.

This made Aoyama feel both sad and helpless. Although I pity what happened to them, I am not a savior, and I have no ability to change anything, so I can only turn a blind eye at this moment.

But Qingshan's strange look was still noticed by Wushuang and said, "Why, it shouldn't be that I have taken a fancy to them." ”

"Nope." Qingshan muttered, "I just can't believe that I can see such a brutal scene here." ”

"Inhumane." "Don't tell me that there are no slaves in your hometown. ”

"More than 5,000 years ago, our country passed legislation abolishing the existence of slaves." Aoyama said in a deep voice: "In our place, everyone is equal, even the most powerful chairman and president cannot oppress ordinary people, let alone treat defeated prisoners as slaves. ”

"What a strange country." Jiaoluo and Yunxia were also quite curious.

As for Long Hao on the side, he looked at Qingshan thoughtfully: "What did you do with the defeated captives." ”

"If both sides have prisoners, they will exchange prisoners with each other, but if the other side does not, the only way to redeem the captured captives is through diplomatic means." Castle Peak Road.

"There are such strange rules." Long Hao couldn't help frowning slightly: "But what if the other party can't afford to pay." ”

"That's impossible." Aoyama said: "In our place, the military is a very sacred profession, even if it is a defeated and captured soldier, it has irreplaceable value, unless the country is destroyed, he will not refuse to redeem the captive, otherwise there is no need for the enemy to defeat him, the first people in the country will remove the president or chairman, and then elect a new government representative." ”

"Ahh Long Hao was stunned by his words: "Your people can actually depose the emperor. ”

Wushuang and the others couldn't help but exclaim: "How is this possible." ”

"Whether it is the Ranchi Empire or other countries, the royal family and nobility are the most noble and inviolable." Jiao Luo muttered.

"In our nobility and royal family, if we want to find a type of person similar to your so-called aristocracy, it should be an official in an important position or a civil servant, in us, civil servants can not be arbitrarily powerful, their existence is only to better serve the people, it can be said that he is only a public servant of the people, not a bureaucrat who can oppress the people at will." Aoyama said in a deep voice.

"Civil servants, serving the public, servants of the people." Long Hao was already shocked by Qingshan's words.

"It's hard to believe that such a country really exists in this world." Jiaoluo said: "The people living in that world must be very happy." ”

"That's how it should have been." Qingshan said: "But the appearance of Ram has changed all this, if it were not for Ram's invasion, I would never have become a soldier." ”

"When you find Ram." Long Hao looked yearning: "Can you take me to your hometown to have a look?" ”

"If I can go back." Aoyama said: "I will definitely bring you." ”

Everyone walked and talked.

But at this moment, Wushuang suddenly stared at a pile of strange black stones on the stall: "Uncle, are these Xuantie essence stones?" ”

The owner of the stall was dressed in a white robe, and his attire clearly showed that this hybrid dealer was a foot trader from the White Sun Empire, about fifty years old, perhaps because of the perennial trader's running, his complexion was dark, and his voice was a little hoarse, but even this could not erase the shrewdness and ability that belonged to the merchant: "This girl has good eyesight, and this piece is the finest dark iron essence stone. ”

"How much." Wushuang said quite simply.

"Two hundred gold for a pound." The businessman's answer was equally simple and straightforward.

"That's a lot of money." Wushuang said: "This piece of dark iron essence stone can only be regarded as medium quality, and it is too far from being good." ”

"Hehe, it seems that the girl knows a lot about ores." The merchant showed a smile of appreciation: "Since you are knowledgeable, I will not hide it from you, at least one hundred and fifty gold." ”

"No, it's a hundred and fifty gold." Wu Wu shouted: "In our Naluo City, it will be ** ten gold at most." ”

"Ten gold." The footman said angrily, "Then you can keep it for yourself." We daytime merchants have traveled thousands of miles to transport goods to Lanchi, and we have earned hard-earned money, and you also know that you are in the city of Naro, can the market compare with here? One hundred and fifty gold is already fair. ”

Wushuang still wanted to argue with reason, but Wushuang stopped him and said: "This uncle is right, it is indeed a thousand mountains and rivers to come here during the day, even if it is the freight cost of Naluo City to get here, it is not low, and it is understandable to make a little difference, or take care of it a little, and reduce ten gold coins, I will buy sixty catties with you." Wushuang said: "You also saw it, we all just came out to wander, and we don't have much money in our hands." ”

"You're still sensible." The footman laughed softly: "It's not easy to see that you guys came out to work hard at a young age, I accept this price." The merchant pulled out a stone the size of a football from a pile of dark iron stones: "This piece weighs just sixty pounds." ”

"Thank you." Wushuang smiled and paid for the goods, and then said, "I wonder if Uncle can introduce a few of us to the skilled swordsmiths in the vicinity." ”

"Look at you, you guys want to make a suit." Foot-walking merchant road.

Musou nodded repeatedly.

"I know a few swordsmiths and alchemists." The merchant said: "In this way, you go to the south of the city, Craftsman Street, find a Jinfeng Sword Casting Workshop, Jin Feng of the Sword Casting Workshop is the best sword casting master I know, after seeing him, he said that I Mo Lang introduced him, and he will take care of you in terms of price." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Unparalleled joy.

-----------

As the name suggests, Craftsman Street is a street where craftsmen gather. Almost all the craftsmen of the city of Lanchi are gathered here. The whole street is filled with blacksmith shops of all kinds.

On the left is an armor casting shop run by an alchemist who specializes in armor refining, while on the right is an armor shop that specializes in sword casting.

There is a very popular business phrase in modern times. Professional is the best.

Although armor casting and sword casting both belong to the iron-striking industry, they each have this profound knowledge, and thus give birth to two major categories of craftsmen: alchemists and swordsmiths.

The armor is the main defense, the sword is the main attack, and the two shops are open face to face, which is really a bit of a spear and shield opposite. This tradition has been around for more than 5,000 years.

Generally speaking, the deeper you go, the larger the area of the shop, the more luxurious the decoration, and the higher the rank of swordsmith and alchemist.

Like the Ranger, both swordsmiths and alchemists have very clear ranks and signs. And its.

But they only have seven ranks.

The first to third orders are called blacksmiths

The fourth to sixth orders are called craftsmen.

The Seventh-Order Craftsman is called the Great Craftsman

The higher the grade, the larger the scale of the store that can be opened, and the more luxurious the scale of the natural façade decoration.

When Qingshan and the others finally found a delicious signboard of the Jinfeng Sword Casting Workshop, they were still taken aback.

It's not because it's too luxurious, but because this Jinfeng Sword Casting Workshop is too shabby. A crooked small signboard that you can't see at all if you don't look for it carefully.

There were only two busy people in the swordsmith's workshop. At first glance, you can tell that they are two brothers. The little big looks like he's only twenty-five or six, while the big one looks like he's only about thirty, and both of them have very distinctive bald heads. Wearing only a small coat of open bear. Hammer in hand, busy.

He stopped after seeing Aoyama and the others come in.

"A few young heroes, you need something." The older brother's voice was rough and full of energy.

"We were introduced by Uncle Mo Lang." Wushuang said: "Find Master Jinfeng." ”

"I'm Jin Feng." Hearing that it was introduced by Mo Lang, Jin Feng showed a warm smile.

"You. It's Jinfeng. Jiaoluo said curiously.

Not only Jiaoluo, but even Long Hao and Wushuang were also surprised, this Jin Feng was too young to look at it, so that Wushuang and the others thought he was an apprentice in this shop as soon as they entered the door.

You must know that in the mainland, you can't open a store without a rank above the third order. This is naturally clear to Wushuang and others. The third-order swordsmith is equivalent to the existence of a warrior of the thirtyth order in the ranger world, although such a blacksmith is not a few, but there are definitely not many swordsmiths who can reach the third order before they are more than fifty years old.

I didn't expect that this Jin Feng, who didn't look amazing, was really a third-order swordsmith.

I don't know about these green mountains. But he also looked at Jin Feng in surprise.

In the image of Aoyama, the blacksmith is supposed to be the kind of man with a muscular face and a full beard.

But Jin Feng in front of him couldn't match his strength no matter how he looked at it, his figure was moderate, and he looked barely a little stronger than himself, but he held a big hammer in his hand that was not commensurate with his size. Just looking at the estimated weight of the volume, it will not be less than 100 kilograms.

But in Jin Feng's hand, it seemed to have no weight at all. This guy's strength is not small.

Wushuang on the other side also looked inquiring, but when she saw the craftsman bracer on Jin Feng's wrist clearly. Those three eye-catching bars finally believed Jin Feng's words.

Like the rangers of the Ranger World, all swordsmiths wear a professional emblem befitting their status, the Bracers of the Craftsman. It is equivalent to the rank epaulette of the Ranger world. Jin Feng's craftsman's bracers are three bars, which shows that he is a true third-level swordsmith

"Are you really a third-order swordsmith?" Unscathed, full of incredible.

"What, is there a problem?" Seemingly dissatisfied with the questioning of the two, Jin Feng immediately glared.

"No, no, hehe." Wuxian waved his hand again and again, joking, although this level 30 swordsmith is not rare, it is not something that rookie rangers like Wushu and Wushuang who don't even have a rank can offend: "I just feel too surprised that such a young man can reach such a high level of swordsmithing." ”

No matter how harmless it sounds, it sounds like a compliment, which makes Jin Feng's face look better.

"We want to build some good weapons." Wushuang said: "Uncle Mo Lang said that your craftsmanship is trustworthy, so we found here." ”

"Hehe, that's easy to say." The young one was quite smug and said, "My brother's craftsmanship is also one of the best among the entire third-order first-order swordsmiths, you can be regarded as finding the right person." ”

"Since it was introduced by Uncle Mo, I will naturally do my best?" Jin Feng said: "But I don't know how high your requirements are. ”

"We don't have a lot of requirements, as long as we can achieve the same quality as his sword." Wushuang said and pointed to the Xuanyuan heavy sword on Qingshan's back: "Pull out your sword and give him a reference." ”

"Oh." Qingshan hurriedly pulled out the Xuanyuan heavy sword. And handed it to Jin Feng.

Jin Feng put down the hammer in his hand and took the Xuanyuan heavy sword in Qingshan's hand, but when he held the Xuanyuan heavy sword, he couldn't help but change his face: "Ah." This is, this is the Darkiron Greatsword. But soon, he shook his head again and again: "No, this sword is not made of dark iron, and with such a volume, it is impossible for the dark iron to weigh like this." ”
