Volume 1 The Clan's Destruction of the Door Alone and Persistently Entering the Xiguan Chapter 84 Flattery and Foolishness
"I ......" thought that Hao Jun was comforting and comforting himself and saying good things to himself, but who knows, he was concerned about when the other six weapons would be delivered, Ling Yi ignored the two, poured another cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp.
Poof, hot and bitter, he never thought the tea would be so unpalatable. Waving his hand and sending the two away, Ling Yi ran to the blacksmith shop and began to work as coolies and forge weapons.
It took four days for Ling Yi to forge two more weapons, both of which were snatched by Wen Tianqin like a debt collector.
Looking at the pig iron purchased last time, Ling Yi estimated that he could build a weapon at most, and the materials would run out, and he ran to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange it, but Elder Li did not replenish the stock, and there was not a single piece of pig iron.
Coming down from the main peak, Ling Yi thought about where to get more pig iron, otherwise he would be annoying again if he completed the task of Tianqin.
Ling Yi, who was walking, was blocked by a person, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Sun Ze, and Ling Yi hurriedly greeted: "Big brother, where are you going?"
Sun Ze looked at him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Only then did Ling Yi know that he didn't notice that the eldest brother called him when he buried his head in thinking about the problem just now, and explained: "It's not that the second brother and Wen Tianqin are in trouble, they asked me to fight ten weapons, and only six of them were handed over, and the materials are not enough, I have to find a way to find some pig iron, otherwise I will be annoyed to death by them!"
Sun Ze actually knew about it, so he didn't ask much, only asked: "Have you found the materials?"
Ling Yi shook his head and replied, "No, Elder Li didn't buy it there, and now I don't know where to find pig iron, it seems that the second brother's weapons will be sent to him a few days later." ”
Sun Ze thought for a while, pulled Ling Yi and walked down the mountain, and said as he walked: "I know a place, I'll take you to see it, there must be pig iron you want, and you may encounter good things." ”
Ling Yi asked curiously, "Where is the place that the eldest brother is talking about? Is there really pig iron?"
Sun Ze didn't look back and walked forward, and said: "Let's go to Cloud City, there are a lot of blacksmith shops there, you must have a lot of pig iron, and then we will go to Wuge, where we can meet a lot of good things!"
Only then did Ling Yi understand that Sun Ze was talking about Cloud City, which was the main city of Jingzhou, and pig iron was naturally indispensable.
Sun Ze urged as he walked: "Speed up your pace, otherwise you won't be able to come back tonight, and you will have to delay for another night." ”
The two of them quickly went down the mountain, out of the mountain gate, and went straight to Yunzhong City, and came to the city gate of Yunzhong City, Ling Yi looked up at the towering city gate and crowded streets, and then found that he had not gone down the mountain for a whole year, as the so-called no years in the mountains!
Ling Yi, who was walking on the street, stopped to look, like a curious baby, Sun Ze looked at him and quipped: "Have you never been on the street?
"Huh?" Ling Yi didn't hear clearly, and continued to look east and west, and said as he looked: "I used to be at my master's place, deep in the mountains and old forests, I haven't been down the mountain for more than two years or three years, and I just went down the mountain and entered the academy to go to school and cultivate, and I haven't been able to go down the mountain this year, if it weren't for you, I might have lost my instinct to speak." If you hadn't taken me down the mountain today, I wouldn't have known there was such a thing as a city under the mountain!"
Looking at Ling Yi's appearance, Sun Ze felt funny, but when he thought about it, he was just a child of more than eight years old, and his nature had not yet been extinguished, and it was only for the sake of cultivation that he suppressed the child's heart.
Sun Ze asked casually: "What about your parents? They don't take you to the streets?"
Hearing the word "parents", Ling Yi's face became gloomy, and he was no longer curious about those fresh objects, and walked in front without saying a word.
Sun Ze knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he didn't dare to continue to disturb Ling Yi, so he followed behind him.
Ling Yi walked for a while before he spoke: "I'll tell my eldest brother about my parents' affairs later, let's do business first today!"
Sun Ze finally waited for Ling Yi to speak, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mention your parents!"
Ling Yi shook his head, continued to walk forward, and said, "It's okay, what are the brothers sorry for? I just thought that my parents were uncomfortable!"
Without saying anything all the way, Sun Ze led Ling Yi to the largest weapon shop in Cloud City, the World of Martial Arts, and walked in.
As he spoke, he explained to Ling Yi: "This is the secular industry of the Condensation Sect, mainly dealing in weapons, armor and materials, etc., as long as it is about the short being, there is everything here. ”
At this time, a shopping guide came over, beckoned the two of them into the store, and introduced them while leading the way in front: "Two customers, I am a shopping guide in the world, I am honored to serve you, do you need to buy something? Or do you want to sell materials?"
Ling Yi nodded, followed the shopping guide to the counter, looked at it for a while and said, "Today we came here to buy some materials, please take us to have a look." ”
The shopping guide smiled and said, "Okay, please follow me!"
led the two of them to the material counter and asked Ling Yi: "Excuse me, what materials do you need?"
Ling Yi looked at the materials on the counter, pointed to a piece of steel, and said, "Can you show me this piece of steel?"
The shopping guide opened the counter, took a piece of stainless steel weighing about one pound for Ling Yi, and introduced: "This is the steel produced by our store, which is higher in purity than other stainless steels on the market, you can take a look first." ”
Lingyi took over the steel, from the point of view of quality and color, this is indeed a good piece of steel, used to forge weapons, as long as the blacksmith is not a waste material, it can definitely forge a mortal weapon, although it is not as good as Lingyi's forging, but it is also a good material.
Ling Yi returned the steel and asked the shopping guide: "What price do you have here for this quality of steel?"
The shopping guide put the steel back in its place and replied: "This quality of steel is forty taels of gold a pound for us." ”
Sun Ze listened to the price and smacked his tongue: "Forty taels, isn't it fragrant to buy pork ribs?"
His words made the shopping guide laugh, and Ling Yi answered: "Why don't you exchange your broken army for pork ribs?"
Ling Yi then said to the shopping guide: "What is the price of your Shenyin here?"
The shopping guide explained: "It depends on the quality, there are 100 to 300, do you need to take a look?"
Before Ling Yi could speak, Sun Ze said, "Three hundred taels and one catties, is this a robbery?"
Ling Yi glanced at him and said, "People say three hundred taels to buy one tael, look at your fuss, you haven't seen the world!"
Sun Ze's elbow shook on the counter, and he almost fell to the ground, "One or two, is the one or two you said the same thing as the one or two I understand?"
The shopping guide sneered on the side and explained: "Ten taels is a catty, it should be the same thing!"
Sun Ze opened his mouth, covered his chest with both hands, and exclaimed exaggeratedly: "My God, I have a bad heart, don't lie to me, I don't have enough money to buy a tael of silver in my whole body, and now I finally understand why those people revolve around money all day long, no matter how much money is, it's really too little!"
Ling Yi asked Sun Ze: "No, eldest brother, you and your second brother have not been practicing outside all the year round, and they should have saved a lot of money, if you kill those demon beasts, can't you exchange the beast core for a lot of money?"
Sun Ze asked, "Didn't the beast core exchange points from Elder Li?"
Ling Yi nodded: "The beast core can be exchanged for points, and you have exchanged all the points?"
Sun Ze looked innocent: "Your second brother and I have always felt that the points are not of much use, so on the day I came back, I contributed all the beast cores to Elder Li's Treasure Pavilion, now I think I'm a little stupid?"
Ling Yi held his head with his left hand: "You are really stupid, and you are a bit of a trench!"
Sun Ze was depressed on the side, didn't pay attention to Ling Yi, and muttered: "I have to find Elder Li's theory when I go back, it's all because Hao Jun hasn't reminded me in the academy for so many years, yes, it's to blame him!"
Ling Yi motioned to the shopping guide to ignore Sun Ze, and then discussed the materials: "Do you accept materials here?"
The shopping guide said: "General materials, such as pig iron, because we have our own iron ore, so we collect less, other metal materials are collected a little more, what materials do you want to sell?"
Ling Yi then asked, "What price can Shajin sell for here?"
"Shajin?" The shopping guide was taken aback and asked Ling Yi: "You mean you have Shajin to sell?"
Ling Yi nodded, and the shopping guide said: "I am not qualified to negotiate the price of this kind of valuable material, I will ask the shopkeeper, you wait for a while." ”
After a while, the shopping guide returned to the counter with the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper looked at Lingyi and the two for a while, and said: "Hello two customers, I am the shopkeeper of this store, you can call me Lao Wu, and quickly serve tea to the two distinguished guests!"
The shopping guide hurriedly went to the side to boil water and make tea for the two, and the shopkeeper Wu continued: "The two little brothers are students of Haoran Academy?"
Ling Yi nodded and replied "yes".
Shopkeeper Wu smiled all over his face and praised: "The two little brothers are really handsome and extraordinary, they are really genius boys!"
When did Ling Yi and the others ever say such flattering words, the more they listened to it, the more they felt stronger, and said embarrassedly: "Shopkeeper Wu praised it falsely!"
Shopkeeper Wu personally served the tea sent by the shopping guide to the two of them, and then asked: "Are the two little brothers who want to sell the sand gold? You are not only outstanding in appearance and extraordinary in strength, but also have such good luck, you must know that this sand gold is hard to find!"
Ling Yi drank fragrant tea, listened to the flattery, and thought to himself, this tea is still very delicious! ”
As he spoke, Ling Yi pretended to take out a package from his arms, and after opening it, it contained half a catty of sand gold.
Last time in the vast canyon, he and Ah Hai found the sand gold, and after coming back to refine it, they refined a total of five and a half catties of pure sand gold.
Looking at the brightly colored sand gold, it is dazzling, and Sun Ze, who doesn't know how to do it, also knows that this is a good thing!
Shopkeeper Wu took a magnifying glass, carefully checked whether it was, weighed it again, nodded, and praised: "It is indeed the best sand gold, if the little brother is willing, I will pay five hundred taels and one tael to collect this half a catty of sand gold!"
Ling Yi, who was still savoring the tea, changed his face, put down the tea, reached out and put a bag of sand gold in his arms again.
