Chapter 33 Still a Poor B

For Ji Zhoucheng, buying weapons and bullets is a simple task.

Here, the most prosperous shopping street can have three supply stores of equal quality, and even a small store with all kinds of organs hidden in the corner that no one cares about, and the competition can be described as fierce.

But that doesn't mean it's easy to get a weapon at your fingertips in this day and age, any good blacksmith can craft a sharp weapon, but not every blacksmith can learn how to depict runes.

Runes are a complex industry, even if you learn runes from a young age, most of them can only choose one direction to refine, those who learn medical runes cannot depict weapons, and those who learn forging runes are difficult to master combat runes.

And even if the inheritor wants to find an excellent and professional forging rune master, not only needs enough money, but also a special way.

Zhou Xinyi is heading to a blacksmith shop in the heart of the city.

He is also a well-known judge now, just walking on the road will have many people stop and watch, although the deeds of the judge are widely spread in Jizhou City, but most people do not know his appearance, just because of his temperament awe.

But the owner of the blacksmith shop was obviously different, as soon as Zhou Xinyi walked into the blacksmith shop, the originally lazy boss immediately stood up and saluted Zhou Xinyi, "Welcome to the shop, Lord Judge." ”

In this era, there were no cameras, and the way to disseminate information about people's physiognomy was strange, and Zhou Xinyi believed that although the blacksmith shop owner had connections, he would not find out the specific appearance of the judge so quickly, and he probably relied on his temperament to distinguish or guess.

From the beginning of the town at the bottom of the lake, Zhou Xinyi had a question: that is, why some people can recognize his identity as a judge at a glance, while others just feel jealous and dare not be convinced?

After some observation, Zhou Xinyi temporarily decided that observing his temperament from the perspective of others is different from person to person:

The cunning and weak-hearted will be afraid when he sees him; Kind and ordinary people will feel awe and security when they look at him; Those who are righteous and powerful will feel close, while those who are vicious and vicious will feel jealous.

As for why Mr. Octopus dislikes him and is close to him...... That's probably a matter of personal opinion and experience, and he can't say for sure.

And people who are intelligent and have a gift for perception can see through his identity at a glance.

With this summary, Zhou Xinyi probably also got to know the blacksmith shop owner.

"Don't be too restrained, I'll buy some resource supplies."

Zhou Xinyi placed the Wenyan musket on the boss's table, "I need the bullets that this gun can be equipped with." ”

The blacksmith owner picked up the gun and took a closer look at it, and boasted, "It's a rare good gun." Then he didn't say much, and looked down from the reserves.

After a while, he pulled out a box of silver bullets that had been placed in a fine container.

"Silver bullets that match the model and runes of this musket are a thousand quintals...... One. ”

Zhou Xinyi's hand to take the money stopped, what is it?!

He resisted the urge to ask the price again, "So expensive?" ”

He believed that the price was real, and even the lowest price, after all, unless he was crazy, no one would have trouble with the judge because of a few bullets.

But the price is ...... The other party is not crazy, he is also crazy first.

The owner of the blacksmith shop also said helplessly, "Sir, after all, these bullets are equipped with runes, you know, even if you are a beginner in runes, the commission price must start at least five hundred quinlangs." ”

That's right, Zhou Xinyi had been mentally prepared for the price of bullets for a long time, but the actual price still greatly exceeded his expectations.

All the assets given to him by the clan amounted to twelve Lang Coins, and together with the property sent by the Lipple officials, he received three Coins, a total of Fifteen Lang Coins.

This is already all his property, which is worth Kunlang, a total of 30,000.

The order camp will also send 650 kunlang every week, and Zhou Xinyi usually chats with the residents and proprietress here about the shortcomings of the parents, knowing that this is equivalent to the purchasing power of 6,500 yuan in modern times, and 650 kunlang per week is already worth the income of ninety percent of the residents of Jizhou City.

And this weekly salary, I can't even afford to buy a bullet!

No wonder no one wants to use a gun...... Most of the strong people among the aborigines take on tasks to improve their combat power and livelihood, and if you fight with this kind of gun, I'm afraid the reward is not worth the bullet money.

Jiang Yi...... It really tricked him invisibly.

The problem is that he does love and hate this gun, the gun is indeed his best medium and long-range weapon, and the power of Wen Yan is definitely excellent.

The top priority is to enrich his combat strength, so that he can live more safely in the light curtain, money is something outside his body, not to mention the money of this era, as long as he is a judge, there are always various channels to obtain benefits.

Whether to use Wen Yan or whether to buy bullets, Zhou Xinyi has a fixed number in his heart, and what he is currently struggling with is whether he wants to negotiate a price......

As a judge, as long as he is willing to lower his face, the other party will say that it will be cheaper.

It's just that there will be some drop in value.

If you can't buy two magazines with all your whole body property, what else do you need! Zhou Xin is easy to be heartfelt, and the thrifty heart finally defeats face:

“…… Can this be cheaper? ”

The blacksmith shop owner on the opposite side was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Hey, I also think this price is too expensive, no, for so many years, you were the first to ask me to buy rune bullets." ”

"Actually, I thought that these bullets were smashed in my hands, so let's do it, the price I got these goods is seven hundred and fifty, and I will buy you one for eight hundred kunlang, how about it?"

Zhou Xinyi nodded movingly, "Thank you so much." ”

He found that the boss's attitude towards him was much more natural than at the beginning, and sure enough, the people still liked the official ......

In the end, he bought eighteen bullets for fourteen thousand four hundred quinlangs.

After buying it, Zhou Xinyi didn't leave, "I heard that there are bullets with special runes carved into them?" Can you show me. ”

The boss nodded, "Of course." ”

He took out several lockets from under the table, each of which contained a rimmed bullet.

These bullets alone are made of different materials, some are made of gold, some are made of silver, and there are crystal clear materials, which shimmer with the luster of "expensive when you look at it".

It's not that the manufacturers of these bullets force their value with expensive materials, but that some runes can only be engraved on special materials to make their effects more effective.

The boss nodded at the silver special bullet on the far left, "This one, 160,000." ”

“…… Okay, so you don't have to go on. ”

Spanning an era, Zhou Xinyi still did not escape the restrictions of poverty.

The boss laughed heartily twice.

Zhou Xinyi asked, "Is anyone really buying this thing?" They have completely outgrown the value of consumables. ”

"Well, this isn't a consumable," the blacksmith shop owner pointed to the location of the bullet, "Do you see this rune?" ”

The head of the bullet was carved with a small knife like a Morse code, but in fact, it was a rune that had been broken apart in a special way.

"If I'm not mistaken, this rune means copying, which means that if you fill this bullet into a magazine, the bullet will be able to duplicate the same instance as it for you to fire."

"As long as the main body is not damaged, there will only be a time limit for the bullet to be fired, and there will be no limit on the number of bullets."

Zhou Xinyi nodded, as if he was once again pressed on top of his head by the anxiety of money.

"But of course, the shop only has a few basic bullets, and if you're interested in that, you can check it out at Night Street."

Zhou Xinyi looked at him, "Do you know where you can enter the Night Street?" ”

The blacksmith shop owner was a little embarrassed, "You're not going to seize it, sir, I don't want to hide it, I still have a shop in Night Street......"

Night Street is an underground commercial street, and when Zhou Xinyi talked about this topic, the blacksmith shop owner was still a little stunned.

"Do I look like someone who went somewhere?" Zhou Xin easily smiled, "I heard that Night Street has always been quiet and self-contained, and the people in the city also have a good impression of it, why should I check it?" ”

"I'm just a judge, and I'm not an official in this area, but I just came to Jizhou City for the first time, and I heard that there is such a good place, and I want to join in the fun."

The blacksmith shop owner sighed, "Otherwise, tonight, you come to me, and I'll take you." ”

Zhou Xinyi agreed.

The blacksmith shop owner was a clever trader who could see Zhou Xinyi's intentions, but he didn't covet profit.

After all, befriending a judge is much more important than making a little money, even if this judge will leave Jizhou City after a while, he will do a good deed that day, and it will not be a loss, right?

As for the judge going to the night street, this is all the more helpful.

Without leading the way himself, the judge still had access to the night street.

But if he leads the way, even if the judge really seals the night street, the judge will help protect his interests.

The problem is that you, the guide, can't let others recognize you.

Therefore, when Zhou Xinyi walked into the blacksmith shop in the night, the blacksmith shop owner was putting a mask, cloth and other things on his head, like a thief, and his face was wrapped tighter than that of the people on the island.

“…… As for you. "I'm really not going to seal it up.

"You don't know, you have to cover your face when you go into the night street," said the blacksmith shopkeeper, "and although there is no danger there, the rule has been set from the beginning, and no one has broken it." ”

He picked up a strip of cloth, "Mr. Judge, don't you cover your face?" ”

"......" Zhou Xinyi walked straight out of the blacksmith shop, and after a while, walked in with two masks.

Although the price of the mask is not cheap, it is not worth as much as a bullet, and the mask is solid in its entirety, but the craftsmanship of the craftsman allows people to see the road even when wearing a mask.

The one for the blacksmith shop owner is a yellow-faced cat.

And Zhou Xinyi's own wear is very simple, pure black, with a blood-like red vertical line on the right half of his face, showing a fire-like metallic luster in the dark night.
