Chapter 4 Valuation, Fame, and Gift-giving

"When I brought it to the store, it was naturally to be sold, and I bought all these materials!"
The voice was very thin, and it didn't change when I heard it, but the owner of the animal material shop changed his face in an instant, and his smile suddenly froze, all because the identity of the person who spoke in Qin Du Town was known to everyone, and no one knew it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A handsome young man, with black hair up to his ears, slightly biased bangs, a smile in his sword eyebrows, a high nose bridge and thin cheeks, dressed in a costume made of the animal skin of the fourth-level beast soldier Liuyun Fox, the thin and short light red fluff on it flows with a faint coolness, even if it is the June day of the abandoned boat star, it only feels very refreshing when it is draped on the body.
Look at the expression of standing with his hands in his hands, a finely crafted sword at his waist, swaying with jade, and he looks like a merry boy.
"Young Master Du, why are you here?" The owner of the beast material shop no longer paid attention to those third-level beast soldier materials at this time, and immediately ran to the side of the young man at the door with a smile, and after being stopped by the strong man next to him, he stopped and nodded hello.
But the young man of the Du family didn't have the heart to pay attention to the boss, but instead stared at the boy inside, and raised his chin: "How about it? How much do you sell these materials?"
The boy's eyes flickered a few times on the boss and the young man of the Du family, and then he shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't sell these materials." ”
"Oh, this customer, this is Du Tianwen, Young Master Du, selling these materials to the Du family is definitely better than selling them to me. The owner of the animal material shop could hardly see his eyes because of the smile he piled up, but for some reason sweat began to appear on his forehead, and he didn't wipe it, but strongly recommended that the boy sell the materials to the Du family boy at the entrance of the store.
The young man of the Du family kept a smile on his face, and when the boss spoke, he immediately spoke: "My Du family has always been above board and honest in business, and it will never make people suffer, if you sell these materials to me, I will definitely give you a good price." ”
The boy stared at the young man of the Du family and blinked: "You are the young master of the Du family?"
"Well, exactly. ”
"Then you understand the value of orc materials?"
The young man of the Du family raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the boy in front of him.
It looks like a child of the same age as himself, but his calm inquiring posture is unusually calm.
"I don't know much, but I'll ask him to give you an estimate, and it will definitely not be low. The young man paused, and then looked at the owner of the animal material shop beside him: "Is that right?"
The last question was aimed at the owner of the animal material shop, and the short and fat boss immediately bent down and nodded, and kept answering.
The boy glanced at the boss, took a step back with the swaddling clothes on his chest, and the animal material package was exposed.
"Then you can ask him to estimate the price for me!"
......
"This Du family concubine is also quite interesting. The old man stroked his beard lightly, and seemed to be more concerned about Du Tianwen than the boy Qiao Ximing's situation: "His reputation in Qin Du Town is not very good?"
"No!" Chang Mingqi's face was a little strange, and he shook his head: "His reputation in Qin Du Town is too good. ”
"Oh?" said the old man, looking back in a little surprise.
Chang Mingqi organized the language, and then said slowly: "Du Tianwen, the great-grandson of Du Lun, the old man of the Du family, and the illegitimate son of Du Qiyu, the second son of the Qizi generation, his mother is a low-class person bought back from the market by the Du family, and the child died soon after birth due to complications caused by childbirth. ”
Although before this, Du Qisheng, the eldest son of the Qizi generation and the current head of the Du family, also gave birth to offspring, but the five are all women, and although Du Tianwen is the illegitimate son of the second son, he has become Du Lun's eldest great-grandson. ”
The old man nodded thoughtfully: "No wonder the bodyguards behind him are not low, it seems that they are indeed favored." ”
"Yes. ”
"The next head of the Du family, he has the greatest chance?"
But Chang Mingqi shook his head: "No, Du Tianwen was deprived of the right to participate in the competition for the next head of the family because of his identity as a concubine. ”
Now, the old man felt even more interesting.
Du Lun is very fond of this eldest great-grandson, but the rule that the position of the head of the family is only passed on to the concubine is a common decision within them, so although Du Tianwen is favored, he still can't compete for the head of the family, and after him, the current head of the family, Du Qisheng, also gave birth to a son, and today happens to be his seventeenth birthday. ”
"Well, what about your reputation being too good?"
This question made Chang Mingqi's face go back to weirdness: "It stands to reason that these favored family children will more or less develop an arrogant and domineering temperament, but this Du Tianwen is very unusual, perhaps because his mother is a low-class person and is a concubine, he likes to maintain justice for the civilians of Qin Du Town, and often takes the family's money and distributes it to the low-class people in the town, because he is favored, no one in the family stops him, but he has created the unanimous praise of the people in the town." ”
"In that case, why does the beast shop owner seem so afraid of him?"
"Because that guy crashed into Du Tianwen's gun before. A trace of disdain flashed on Chang Mingqi's face: "That fat man, someone in his family is in charge of my town guards, so he has been overwhelming people with power, buying the prey hunted by local hunters at a very low price, but he was bumped into by Du Tianwen, and he was ruthlessly rectified, and half of the entire store was scattered to make up for the losses of those hunters." ”
The old man chuckled and glanced at Chang Mingqi: "Are you related to the people in your town guards?"
Chang Mingqi immediately looked solemn, bowed his head and replied: "I have removed that person from his post, and severely punished him in the town guards to set an example, and also let out the words, once there is a similar situation, it will not be spared." ”
The old man snorted lightly, but didn't say anything, Chang Mingqi raised his head when he saw this, and looked in the direction of the beast material store.
"Teacher, Du Tianwen is so enthusiastic about buying the materials of the little junior brother, I am afraid that he wants to expose his words at the town gate, in that case, I am afraid that the little junior brother will be arrested. ”
"Are you so worried about him?" The old man glanced back again, there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes, so that Chang Mingqi couldn't figure out what the old man meant, and was silent for a while, so he could only nod slightly.
"If you're worried about him, you'd better be worried about yourself. The old man no longer looked at Chang Mingqi, but his words were a little cold.
"Since just now, three inferior people have come out of your mouth, more than the four years I took you forty years ago, have you forgotten your mother's identity?"
The words stopped in Chang Mingqi's ears, which made him feel deafening, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back for no reason.
As soon as he bent over, he immediately fell to the ground, with a serious expression: "It's the disciple who is wrong, I was almost lost in my mind by these years of life, and I forgot the teacher's way of equality, please punish the teacher." ”
The mayor of a second-level town was lying at his feet, but the old man felt bored, waved his hand, and Chang Mingqi on the ground was held up by an invisible force: "That's it, it's the fault of this world, don't blame yourself, just concentrate on how Ximing copes." ”
Chang Mingqi gritted his teeth, the shame on his face was still difficult to hide, but he still turned his attention back to the animal material store, and quietly watched the development of the situation in the town lord's pavilion with the old man.
......
"Your materials are all complete, the first-grade animal materials are worth two hundred green coins, seventeen sets, the second-level animal materials are worth eight hundred green coins, thirteen sets, and the third-level animal materials are worth thirty green coins, three sets, a total of two hundred and twenty-eight green coins. ”
The color currency system of the abandoned boat star people was only determined a hundred years ago, and the raw materials are the colorful ores unearthed from the abandoned boat star, which are green, blue, purple, black, and white from low to high, and there is a ratio of one to one hundred in adjacent grades.
The owner of the animal material store is an old businessman, since it is a receipt, he unconsciously said the number in the general direction, two green coins said to make two hundred green coins, so that the seller can give a feeling of earning enough, is he has been in business for more than ten years, tried and tested method.
Du Tianwen heard the quotation, nodded and said: "Although I don't know the price of beast weapon materials very well, but he definitely doesn't dare to lower the price in front of me, two hundred and twenty-eight blue coins, I can directly give you three purple coins, and I will buy these beast materials of yours." ”
"That's a lot, even if it's your hard work to come to town. ”
Ordinary hunters, hunting desperately every month, can only get four or five blue coins in exchange, this is an extremely good hunter, and the three purple coins in front of him are a hundred times the number in an instant, which is worth five years of harvest for an excellent hunter.
The fine eyes of the owner of the animal material shop on the side lit up, staring at the three purple coins shining in the hands of a strong man beside Du Tianwen, and he couldn't help but show a little greed. Even if he owned a veterinary material store, the income of the store every month was only a few purple coins.
couldn't help but show a little envy in the boss's eyes when he looked at the boy.
The strong man holding the purple coin next to Du Tianming was about to approach the pile of animal materials on the counter, but the boy who had not spoken until he had not spoken took two steps forward and blocked the front of the animal material package.
Seeing this situation, Du Tianming couldn't help but show a little surprise: "What, aren't you enough?"
Even the eyes of the owner of the animal material shop were strange, this boy didn't look very good, but he didn't expect to be more greedy than himself.
But the boy stood silently in place and shook his head coldly: "I don't sell these materials." ”
A dissatisfied look appeared on the face of the approaching strong man, his thick eyebrows were raised high, and an unhappy hostility began to emerge from his body.
"I said, I'm just here for an estimate. ”
"Huh?" everyone in the shop looked at the boy with doubts in their eyes.
But the boy didn't mean to be embarrassed at all, so he indifferently repacked the pile of materials, and said softly: "These beast materials are not for sale, but my master asked me to bring them into the town as gifts." ”
The young man of the Du family narrowed his eyes, and his smile gradually became richer: "Who do you want to give a gift?"
The boy's movements were fast, and he re-knotted the burden after a few breaths, then glanced at Du Tianwen, and finally glanced at the owner and teller of the animal material store.
"Idle people are there, don't say it. ”
"Miscellaneous people?" Du Tianwen couldn't help touching his chin, chuckled twice, and then waved his hand to the strong man beside him: "Temporarily close the animal material store, and the boss and clerk will all go to the back room and wait." ”
At the sound of the order, the door of the store was slammed shut, and the short and fat boss opened his surprised little eyes and was driven to the back room with the clerk.
"Alright, the idlers have been expelled, you should have said it, right?"
The boy looked at Du Tianwen, whose eyes were gradually sharpening on the other side, and he was not panicked at all, lifted the burden on the counter, raised his legs and walked towards him.
Seeing this, several strong men snorted coldly, and stepped forward to stop the boy.
Call!
There was a sudden flower in front of their eyes, but they found that the boy had disappeared, and when they turned around in shock, the other party had already walked one meter in front of Du Tianwen.
As soon as the hand was released, the burden of Nuo Da was placed in front of the toes of the Du family boy.
"This gift is for you!"
