Chapter Forty-Eight: I Want It All (Part 1)
"Three sons, two sons, you see, the following is the old slave selected from the treasures and demon treasures in our treasure building, which is very suitable for catching the fog and rain elve......s in the misty rain forest."
Su Lin and the others went up to the second floor, and what they saw was no longer a dazzling array of materials, but the treasures and demon treasures that had been made. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Moreover, the big shopkeeper Yuan Xing also enthusiastically selected three Wenbao and Demon Treasures suitable for the Misty Rain Trail Forest, and placed them in front of Su Lin and the three of them.
"A tortoiseshell-shaped demon treasure, a pen-shaped treasure that seems to be a person-level treasure, and a chessboard treasure?"
Looking at the three magic weapons in front of him, Su Lin was especially interested in the chessboard treasure, after all, he had never heard of using the chessboard as a treasure.
"Hezong chessboard, that seems to be a half-saint-level literary treasure, right?"
Hong Liyu's eyes were also firmly fixed on the chessboard Wenbao on that side, and he sighed in surprise:
"Great! We're in need of a treasure like the chessboard!"
"Hong Gongzi is a good eyesight realm! However, this square and vertical chessboard is just an imitation of a person who has practiced the way of combining vertical and horizontal families, and its power is limited.
However, entering the Misty Rain Trail Forest, with such a chessboard, it is much easier to capture the Misty Rain Elves. ā
The big shopkeeper Yuan Xing explained with a smile, "This chessboard costs 30,000 taels of silver, which is a bit expensive, but in recent years, the Xiucai who has been able to catch the fog and rain spirit can rely on it to avoid getting lost in the fog and rain forest." ā
"Thirty thousand taels of silver? So expensive? The big shopkeeper, the ordinary treasures, aren't they all in the early 10,000 taels? Why is this chessboard of the Zongheng family so expensive? It is more than twice as expensive!"
Rao is Yuan Duan, the third son of the Yuan family, heard the price of this chessboard, and couldn't help but gasp.
His own monthly payment for a year adds up to only a few thousand taels of silver, but this time he is promoted to the rank of Tongsheng and goes back, he can receive tens of thousands of taels of silver from the family a year, but Rao is like this, and he can't afford to buy this square chessboard!
"Expensive, third prince, don't you know that a mist and rain spirit is worth 80,000 taels of silver in this Sitong Town, and you can immediately get a silver ticket of 100,000 taels when you sell it to the government in the Guannei, so you will feel that this chessboard is too cheap. The big shopkeeper Yuan Xing said with a smile.
"The fog and rain elves are indeed valuable, but this investment is also a lot!
Su Lin nodded, he was also very moved, but he didn't know how difficult it was to capture the misty rain spirit in the misty rain forest, so that the government wanted to buy it at a sky-high price of 100,000 taels of silver.
"This one is the Demon Treasure Golden Tortoise Spirit Armor, which is stimulated with holy power, and entering the Misty Rain Trail Forest can form a halo of light, resist the poisonous mist in the Misty Rain Trail Forest, and avoid illusions. It was worth 20,000 taels of silver. ā
Pointing to the slightly gilded tortoise shell, the big shopkeeper Yuan Xing said, and then introduced another pen-shaped Wenbao Dao:
"Among these three treasures, this one is the cheapest of the Tianya Demon Pen, which only costs 15,000 taels of silver, but it is also the only treasure with an attack function. ā
Three magic weapons, one demon treasure, and two cultural treasures. Prepared both offensively and defensively.
In fact, this is also the standard configuration for those talented people to enter the Misty Rain Trail Forest, and the combined value has reached 65,000 taels of silver, which is placed in the homes of ordinary people, and they can't earn so much silver in ten lifetimes.
"Okay, big shopkeeper, you can make a note! These three magic weapons will be borrowed in the name of my Yuan Duan, and they will be returned after catching the fog and rain elves from the misty rain trail forest. ā
Yuan Duan also sighed heavily, and then said with confidence in Su Lin and Hong Liyu:
"Brother Su and Brother Hong, I believe that with the help of these three magic weapons, we will definitely be able to catch a mist and rain elf.
As long as you catch a misty rain elf, you can not only exchange for 100,000 taels of silver from the government, but also get a hundred points of fame. When the time comes, Brother Su and Brother Hong will be 40% each, and I will be able to account for 20%. ā
This Yuan Duan was very generous, and directly gave the lion's head to Su Lin and Hong Liyu, but how could Su Lin and Hong Liyu let him suffer?
"Brother Yuan, it was you who lent the magic weapon from the Treasure Building, and you should have the lion's share. You are forty percent, and I am three percent with Liyu. ā
Su Lin immediately shook his head and said, he has never been a person who likes to take advantage of others.
"That's right, Brother Yuan, especially the chessboard of that side, with it, it is equivalent to a map in the misty and rainy forest, which is very important.
I dare to promise Brother Yuan that as long as I have this chessboard, I will be able to catch at least three mist and rain elves. ā
Hong Liyu also nodded confidently, she actually had a calculation in her heart, even if she didn't have such a treasure as the Hezong chessboard, she could take Su Lin and them to catch the fog and rain elves, and now she has the Hezong chessboard, let alone a team.
"Okay, since Brother Hong and Brother Su give face, it's decided. After the three of us tried it, we all had to go to the Shizu Academy in Jian'an Mansion, and when the time came, we had to help each other and study the Dao of Thought together. ā
Yuan Dui's heart was also extremely excited, and it was a blessing in itself to be able to make friends with two geniuses who were enlightened by the Divine Words.
But just when Yuan Du had a lot of pride in his heart and was looking forward to going to the misty rain forest with Su Lin and Hong Liyu to capture the misty rain elves, Yuan Qi, the eldest son of the Yuan family, sneered from downstairs, fiddled with a Wenbao folding fan, walked up slowly, and said:
"Yo! It turned out to be the third brother! You came to this treasure building, why didn't I know? After all, this treasure building is also the property of my family's direct subordinates!"
"Big brother...... I thought you weren't there, so I went straight to the big shopkeeper. ā
Seeing Yuan Qi, Yuan Dui instinctively felt stunned in his heart, and then hurriedly introduced Su Lin and Hong Liyu to him:
"Big brother, these two are Su Lin and Hong Liyu, both of whom are in the same class as me, and we are preparing to borrow the treasures of the Treasure Building and go to the Misty Rain Trail Forest to capture the Misty Rain Elve. ā
"Su Lin, Hong Liyu, this is my eldest brother Yuan Qi, the son of my family's uncle, who is already a talented scholar at the age of seventeen. ā
Yuan Du also introduced Yuan Qi to Su Lin and Hong Liyu, but he was a little unconfident, obviously because he was habitually afraid of his eldest brother Yuan Qi.
"Hmph! I can't help myself, just a newly promoted child, also vainly trying to go to the misty rain trail forest to capture the misty rain elves? How many talents have returned empty-handed, and with the help of you three children, dare to talk about the harvest?"
Yuan Qi sat on the Taishi chair on the second floor with disdain, and said to the big shopkeeper Yuan Xing:
"The use of Wenbao is also lossy, how can the big shopkeeper lend it to outsiders casually? Even if he returns completely, the loss of Wenqi Holy Power is at least a few taels of silver. ā
"Eldest Prince, this ...... It was the third prince who came forward to borrow it......" The big shopkeeper Yuan Xing's face was ugly, knowing that this was Yuan Qi deliberately trying to make things difficult for Yuan Duan.
The Yuan family has three lineages, and the Yuan Qi family happens to control the most valuable cultural treasures and materials business, while the Yuan Dui family is the medicinal material business outside the Guan.
"Big brother, I borrowed these three magic weapons. I had already talked to my grandfather before I came. ā
Yuan Duan's face was a little embarrassed, and he didn't dare to speak like this, but now that Su Lin and Hong Liyu were present, he said stubbornly.
"Oh, how do I remember that what you said to your grandfather at that time was just borrowing a treasure. Now there are three pieces here, worth sixty-five thousand taels of silver, if anything is lost, can you take responsibility?"
Yuan Qi was a little surprised that Yuan Du dared to refute him, so he accentuated his tone and questioned him.
As soon as he asked this, Yuan Du was speechless, and pleaded with Yuan Qi hesitantly: "I...... Big brother, this trial is really crucial, I ...... I'll borrow two more treasures, and beg my eldest brother to be accommodating......"
"My Yuan family has always said that one is one and two is two, and the family is governed by law, how can you be accommodating? What you said with your grandfather is one piece, and the big shopkeeper is only allowed to lend one to the third brother, if you borrow one more, you are ready to go home to retire!"
Yuan Qi's face changed, and he directly released cruel words, so that Yuan Du and the big shopkeeper Yuan Xing were helpless.
"This ...... Big brother, if you only have a Wenbao to assist, you won't be able to catch the Fog and Rain Elf at all?"
Yuan Du continued to plead, but Yuan Qi ignored it at all, flicked his sleeves, and went downstairs in a dashing manner, saying disdainfully as he walked, "It's just a child, and you dare to talk about catching fog and rain elves, ridiculous, ridiculous!"
"Big shopkeeper, look ......"
Yuan Duan looked at the big shopkeeper Yuan Xing with a pitiful face, but Yuan Xing had no choice, so he said to Yuan Duan with a bitter face:
"Third son, you also heard what the eldest prince said just now, the old slave wants to be accommodating, but there is no way...... You'd better think about which magic weapon you want to borrow!"
"That'...... Brother Su, Brother Hong, we can only borrow one magic weapon, you can take a look...... Which one is more conducive to us to capture the fog and rain elves, hey...... If you can only use one magic weapon this time, there is no hope at all......
Even Yuan Duan himself sighed and looked at Su Lin and Hong Liyu, feeling very sorry for the two of them in his heart.
"Brother Yuan, you don't need to sigh. Just need that chessboard. Hong Liyu was not depressed, said with a smile, then looked at Su Lin and asked, "Su Lin, what do you think?"
"Me, since the three magic weapons are suitable for attacking, naturally I want them all!"
Su Lin smiled and took out a silver ticket with a denomination of 10,000 taels of silver from his sleeve, and said, "The big shopkeeper, bring all three magic weapons, I want them all." ā
