Volume 1, my name is Lin Xiaoqiang Seventy-one, mutual benefit and reciprocity
When I arrived at the silversmith shop, I was warmly received by the owner. As soon as I looked at the things, they were almost there, but it would take some time to engrave the vase or something. Thirty-six silver knives had already been crafted. Lin Xiaoqiang paid a sum of money first, saying that we will take away this flying knife today, and you can carve the rest slowly. In addition, we also want to make a few small things, master, you are an expert, you can see if you can do it.
Then the silversmith said, "Please speak." As soon as the arrows were mentioned, the silversmith laughed, this is a small matter, there is no need to change the day, you sit here and wait, and the delivery will be delivered to you in an hour or two.
So fast? The silversmith said, anyway, it is a decorative thing when you do things, and it doesn't need to be strong or sharp, and you don't want to engrave it, it's just a shape, it's simple. Just do it, choose the right size of the silver block, light the blowtorch, burn the silver soft, and knock it again, it is indeed less than half an hour, a decent silver arrow is built. Lin Xiaoqiang said in a loud voice, okay, just hit ten or eight like this, and when the time comes, it will finally be money.
Give money and be happy, and people will work hard. After waiting for a morning, ten silver arrows and thirty-six silver knives were taken back to Guanli. As soon as things were released, Li Bing was not allowed to speak, and Lin Xiao couldn't wait to try the flying knife. In the hand, this size, like the previous steel knife, is very much in hand, and the weight is a few points heavier, but now the strength is longer, and it is better to exert force if it is heavier. This flying knife is not for cutting ropes, it is not needed to be sharp, it is not sharp, and it is more convenient to hide it on the body. Lin Xiaoqiang was very satisfied, set up a brick in the small yard, and tried the head, hey, energetic, comfortable, good.
Li Bing's eye probed, and this silver was indeed better than steel. The carrying capacity of mana has been increased several times. According to the algorithm in the book, not only can the power of each layer of formation be increased, but this small flying knife can support the five-layer formation. It can be, but now the second and third layers can't study any results, and even if it can, it's a blank check, useless. Now that the silver knife is in hand, I'm going to continue experimenting.
This flying knife Lin Xiaoqiang is not distressed, and if it is rotten, place an order to build it, you can test it. Li Bing was still reluctant to use fine fat, so he used cinnabar, and the gold paint had no choice but to use it. Trials, failures, silver knives are invalidated, gold paint is wasted. Summarize, study, try again, fail again. For two days in a row, ten silver knives were scrapped, and the problem of the two-layer formation was finally preliminarily solved. Lin Xiaoqiang looked distressed, this is only the second layer, there are so many scrapped, and in the future, when you reach the fifth layer, you can't waste a few hundred? But now is not the time to worry about money, seeing that the time is very tight, Li Bing hurriedly studied the matter of the formation on the arrow, and with the experience of making a hammer, he basically understood the refining of the second layer of the formation, but after scrapping the two arrows, Li Bing created a one-time big killing weapon.
This time, the carrier was replaced with silver. The first layer is the cinnabar's sun-gathering formation. Although cinnabar is currently used, it is twice as powerful as a hammer. If you have to use the essence of fat, the power will be longer. The second layer of gold paint, Li Bing skillfully made a solid yin array, on the one hand, it is to isolate the huge yang qi of the first layer, on the other hand, Li Bing designed it very well, as long as the method is taught, the ghost enters the yin qi into the array, and this formation will disintegrate by itself, so that the huge yang gathering array of the first layer will explode. Or disposable.
With this, I'm afraid that they won't bring the shaft of the arrow for us to study and study. Li Bing made another one, a total of two, this is the cost of negotiation, put the arrow in place, wait for the appointed time to come, and then fool the ghost.
When it came to the appointed time, seeing the ghost, without waiting for him to speak, Lin Xiaoqiang took out the arrow first. Told the ghost the method used, and directly handed the two arrows into his hand, I won't say anything else, you let the master of your house try it first, and we'll talk about the price in three days. After saying that, he turned around and left, regardless of the ghost calling directly behind him.
In the past three days, I will continue to study the third layer of the magic circle. To study the third layer, it is necessary to prepare a bunch of throwing knives that have been successful in the second layer. Li Bing hurriedly refined, and in the end, there were basically two successful swords, thirty-six flying knives, and only ten were successful in refining to the second layer of formations.
At this point, Li Bing had to take a temporary pause. First, there are not enough throwing knives. According to the situation of the second-layer experiment, these ten scrapped may not be able to study any substantive results. Second, there is not much gold paint, and we must find a way to get gold paint. Third, Li Bing began to think a little about this flying knife.
"I said number three, I think there's a bit of a problem."
"What's the problem?"
"Let's go fight these thirty-six throwing knives, say it's a magic weapon, right?"
"That's right, it's all about magic weapons."
"But you see, these thirty-six have been scrapped. This is going to be decided. But I think if you still use throwing knives, people will be suspicious. How many years has this magic weapon been used, and our thirty-six flying knives can be explained in three or four days, and then decided, I am afraid that it will be determined by one hundred and one hundred. It's silver, but it's also a knife, isn't it strange that we have so many knives? I said No. 3, can you change to a different look, we can be customized for a long time, and it is good not to arouse suspicion. ”
"You're right, this time, I'm afraid I'll have to set a hundred first. But I can't get used to anything other than this knife. ”
"It's just a matter of habit, and you get used to it after a few more strokes. The main question is what will you be able to replace this throwing knife. ”
"Gee, I really want to think about it. I've been learning flying knives, which makes me think about the rest, and I can't think of it for a while. ”
"By the way, I used to read a book called Money Darts. That hidden weapon is like your throwing knife, but it looks like a copper coin, can you come here? ”
"Money darts? My master mentioned it. I haven't practiced it. However, it is said that these hidden weapons should all be connected, and if you practice, you can probably use it. ”
"That's good. In this case, let's go find a few silver dollars first, and you can try it, and if we can, we will buy a large number of silver dollars, so that it will not be conspicuous. ”
Silver dollars are available online. One check, oh, more than three hundred, more than four hundred, this is thirty or forty thousand if you want to buy a hundred, according to Li Bing's current success rate, even if one hundred can succeed fifty two-layer magic circles, I don't know how to scrap it later. At this price, before the fourth-layer magic weapon can be refined, we will ask for food first. It's not going to work.
Headache. Let's go ahead and figure it out. It's a headache, someone came to the construction site in front, saying that the big yard in front was almost cleaned up, and the statue was almost blind, so please ask Master Xiaolin and the old master to go over and take a look. Oops, this Uncle Yang can't move, what do we know. I said to the person who came, this, we look at it, the head of the house is the head of the Zhigen Dao, I don't count these things, in this way, I will contact him immediately, and he will do this preliminary acceptance.
With a phone call, the three Taoist leaders rushed over. Lin Xiaoqiang accompanied him around, and it was really well repaired, the main hall was antique, although there was only one floor, it was still a green tile, and it looked a little interesting. The hall is wide, the statue of Sanqing is placed in the middle, and the top also appears very high. The toilets around it, the gardens are very regular, the small building on the second floor, the large kitchen on the first floor, the dining hall, the five rooms are more than 20 square meters, the natural gas in the kitchen is also brought in, the stove cabinets are also done, and there are four large round tables in each room in the dining hall, and it is no problem to do ten people. Roughly calculated, one room can seat forty people, and four rooms can seat one hundred and sixty people, and when it comes to iftar, according to the scale before the Baozhen Temple, it is more than enough. There are eight rooms on the second floor, some large and some small. I said before that Uncle Yang and Lin Xiaoqiang would not move, and they would still live in the back courtyard, so there is a suite, a bedroom, a small living room, and a toilet with a bath, which is prepared for the head of the house. There are two other rooms, without a small living room, and also with toilets, which are prepared by two Taoist priests, Zhidi and Zhiben. There are two other rooms, which share a small toilet, each with a single bed, a wardrobe, and a desk, which is considered a guest room. The remaining three rooms, two large and one small, are all empty, and let them arrange their own arrangements later. Turning to the outside of the gate, the gate is more than three meters high and more than four meters wide, although there are no carved beams and paintings, it is also a mountain gate made in the traditional style. The people at the construction site introduced that the plaque on the door was said to be inscribed by a calligrapher in the city, and we didn't care.
The construction is almost complete. Lin Xiaoqiang was also very satisfied, and the three Zhigen Dao Chiefs were also very satisfied. Since everyone has no opinions, the construction party will report to the acceptance party. Lin Xiaoqiang said to Zhigen Daochang, this house is almost repaired, and the three of you can move over at a time. Pots and pans or something, move from a small yard, the rest of the main hall, or the rooms, if there is anything missing, it will trouble the three to run errands and add it. As for the money, I'll pay you some in a moment. By the way, I also ordered a batch of silverware, and the three of them will see it first, and there is still nothing missing, although it is just to talk to me.
The three leaders of Zhigen chanted the Buddha, and they did not mention the budget themselves. Lin Xiaoqiang went back to the house and took 50,000 yuan, and sent it to the head of Zhigen Dao, saying that you should take these first, and if it is not enough, you can speak. The big courtyard in front of you depends on your hard work, as for hanging plaques and lighting up the statues, you contact Director Ma, and I will participate then. Uncle Yang is not in good health these days, and I have to keep an eye on it all the time.
After explaining these things, Lin Xiaoqiang sent the three of them to the car. Li Bing inadvertently caught a glimpse of a string of copper coins hanging on the rearview mirror shelf in this car, there were seven or eight bars, worn with red ropes, and tassels of tassels underneath. This is a very common interior decoration item. But as soon as he saw this, it opened up to Li Bing. Sending the three away, Li Bing went straight to the silversmith's shop.
Li Bing came up with an idea, Lin Xiaoqiang told Wu Qiong before, when the temple is repaired, he wants to sell some handicrafts. This is not nonsense, in order to feed the five people in this view, you must come to the way of money. Li Bing thought about it, there are so many cars now, can't we just sell this? By the way, the silverware needed for refining magic weapons was settled, and it was not suspicious at all. Moreover, this freshly made is always cheaper than Yuan Datou, right?
When the silversmith heard this, he was right. Calculate the accounts first, according to what Li Bing said, the size of Yuan Datou, Yuan Datou is half a two, and the current silver price is calculated at four yuan per gram, and the price of silver for such a thing is one hundred yuan. If you use copper, the brass plate is counted as fifty yuan a kilogram, and if you make forty pieces, one is only more than a piece of material money. The silversmith said, if I make such a thing by hand, it will be too slow, and the price of labor will be too expensive.
Lin Xiaoqiang asked, what do you mean? The silversmith said, "For such a thing, you have to find the mint." Let them give the set of molds, so that they can produce in large quantities. Lin Xiaoqiang said that the mint doesn't make money? Pick up our business. The silversmith smiled, this coin is not the same as the coin, you belong to the handicraft, of course, there are manufacturers who specialize in craft coins. You look at the coins of those game halls, which are made by these manufacturers. I know a few, if you can trust me, I'll ask you the price first, you also think of the front and back of the pattern first, if it's suitable, just contact them to open the mold.
Oh, it can still be like this. Li Bing calculated, in this case, a silver coin is only a little more than a hundred, which is a quarter of the price of Yuan Datou. Judging from this price, the magic weapon of refining the four-layer formation method is calculated according to the abolition of 500, which is about 60,000, and we can also support this consumption. So I nodded and said okay, you can help us ask first. In addition, after the things I ordered are done, they will be sent directly to the Baozhen Temple, and it is okay to find me, and it is also okay to find the head of the house. If we need anything else when we set it up, I'll tell you about it on the spot.
Design the pattern on the money, we don't. No matter what, a phone call to Zhigen Lao Dao, talk about this matter, we will in the future, it is estimated that we will make money by selling this, the three of you are familiar with the Taoist classics, just work hard, design the pattern, and I will take a look at it when the time comes.
After I was done with these things, it was time to make an appointment with the ghost again. When I went to the ghost market, I saw the ghost, and I was pulled aside and muttered. The ghost said, my master said, okay, we believe you. An arrow can be taken for you to study. But it's cheaper. As soon as Li Bing heard it, he could give us this thing. The key is to look at the formation above, it doesn't matter if you make money or not. If I ask you to take mercury sulfur again, I'm afraid you won't be able to take it out, and we won't know anything else. It's better to help each other this time, sell him a favor, and make friends with everyone. So I told the ghost, I won't charge you a high price this time, but there are some things that you still need to get, you have to get twenty or thirty silver arrows, you have to get some gold paint, and you have to get some fine fat. I don't want you for the rest, even if everyone is mutually beneficial, there will be business in the future. But I'll say okay, I'll make you four arrows at most, no more.
The ghost nodded in agreement, turned around and took a long box and handed it to Lin Xiaoqiang. You study it first, or you go on a dead date, and in three days, I'll bring those things over.
Back in the temple, Li Bing carefully opened the box and took out the arrow. The physical object of the four-layer magic circle, this is the first time I have held it in my hand, and I am a little excited. After learning this, then the magic weapon we refined should be no problem to deal with the demon that attacked us, right?
This research fascinated. Lin Xiaoqiang is fortunate to have good patience, if you study this boldly, then I will continue to practice. Li Bing's exploration technique has also improved, this arrow, I don't know what kind of wood it is, it stands to reason that wood can't withstand such a large amount of mana, put aside the outermost layer of the formation that isolates the yangqi, on this arrow shaft, the first layer is a formation, this formation Li Bing has not seen, it took a long time to find out, this is a pure offensive amplifier, it does not have any attack power in itself, and the only role is to amplify the mana of the previous layer. The second layer is two formations, and this one is too powerful. The power of the two formations is not the greatest, but after reducing the power of the formation, it is possible to put down two formations at the same time on the second layer. One gathers yang out of yang, one gathers yin out of yin, and at the same time can accumulate yin and yang at one level. The third layer is very special, it is a controlling formation, and Li Bing has not studied it thoroughly. The fourth layer is a large protective formation, which can protect the lower three layers of formations from collapsing when attacked, and it also has the function of absorbing Yin Qi and Yang Qi to maintain the operation of the formation. Li Bing understands the principle of the whole design, and the outermost is protection, because this is an arrow, and it is estimated that there is a bow to cooperate with it, and this entity is going to shoot out. In order to pursue speed, Jian Yu added a formation of speed increase; The third layer is the core, through the control of the third layer, to adjust the proportion of the second layer of formation to output Yin Qi and Yang Qi outward, and you can also temporarily add courage through the third layer, so that the mixed mana can be amplified through the first layer to attack.
Clever design. Li Bing was also eye-opening. Although many details have not been thoroughly understood, such as how to maintain the first layer, how the second layer absorbs yin and yang qi through the channels left by the third and fourth layers, how the third layer should be specifically operated, etc., but just look at a design, you will have a long ability. This design does not pursue maximum power, but emphasizes the versatility of the attack, which can be used against different opponents. This is where the magic lies. While continuing to study the details, Li Bing wanted to make two designs, one was to design a one-time arrow for this arrow from the perspective of the use of ghosts, and the other was to continue to design his magic weapon for Lin Xiaoqiang.
Li Bing thought that the ghost would definitely not touch the second layer of the formation, and he would achieve the Yang Qi attack by controlling the third layer. What comes out of the body of the arrow should be the attack of pure impotence. This arrow, which we can't reach by doing four layers, can be designed into three layers. The first layer is still a powerful Yang Gathering Array, or uses the collapse of the formation to release a huge amount of Yang Qi energy, the second layer can learn to be an amplifier, as for the outermost, just make a cover to isolate the Yang Qi, leaving the channel for the Yang Qi of the arrow body to enter. In this way, when the yang qi of the arrow body enters the arrow, by amplifying the power, it is finally detonated on the first layer, and this power is several times greater than the power of the arrow body itself.
Although I have thought of a plan, I don't have the right materials at hand now, so I can only wait except to continue to study the details of this four-layer formation.
