Chapter 484: Lop Appraisal Society

Under Bills's shrewd analysis, Duan Lie and Bills finally came to the inner city of King Los Angeles, the inner city of King Los is much cleaner and tidier than the slums, and the inner city without the smell of decay and poverty is full of garden streets decorated with Western European style and decorated with quaint designs, from the tall ancient buildings, to the Lantern Square, to the Yaxin Library, these landmark buildings that could only be heard of before opened a unique blueprint in front of Duan Lie and Bills.

In essence, the inner city of the King of Los Angeles is a masterpiece of beauty and peace, the people of the Los Empire are industrious and intelligent, and in the field of architecture, they have extremely high wisdom that even the Heavenly Wind Empire cannot match.

The two of them walked into the inner city like a garden, and after some inquiry, they finally found the location of the craftsman area, and when they entered the hall of the four departments of miscellaneous sciences, they found an extremely lively scene.

Obviously, the people who can hang out in the artisan district are all vindictive warriors, who shuttle from shop to shop, large and small, and choose their favorite items from a wide variety of goods. In the Artisan District, Duan Lie and Bills saw the famous "Brilliant Forge Room", the "Boloi Traders' Chamber of Commerce", the "Del Inscription House", and the "Sparet Apothecary" that are almost as famous as the Source of Darkness......

These studios and apothecaries, which are relatively well-known in the field of miscellaneous sciences in both countries, are finally seeing the real thing today.

If it weren't for something important, Duan Lie would really have the heart to take a good stroll in the craftsman area and see the academic achievements of each studio, which would be a wonderful experience.

But Duan Lie didn't have that much time, he kept inquiring around the smooth streets of the artisan district, and finally found the studio of the Loop Association.

What made Duan Lie and Bills very puzzled was that this association, which enjoyed the highest reputation in King Los Angeles, actually did not have an appraisal guild sign on the outside.

Associations and guilds are two completely different concepts, guilds are the kind of organizations that have been recognized by the empire, have a good reputation, and are fully staffed;

And the so-called association is nothing more than a gathering place for petty appraisers.

What they saw now was a sign called the Rope Appraisal Society, which was hung high in front of the gate of the association by two wires.

Duan Lie didn't bother to understand the existence of the Luopu Appraisal Association, after all, he didn't have that much time to pay attention to other people's affairs, he was here to settle the matter today, based on the identity of an outsider, Duan Lie had already made up his mind, as long as the incident in the morning was accompanied by a misunderstanding, he didn't mind that the other party had a friendly negotiation with a good and sincere attitude.

After thinking about it, the two of them walked into the Loop Appraisal Association, which was surrounded by several counters more than half a person high, and some unidentified goods were hung on the walls around it, which was dazzling and varied.

Seeing this, Duan Lie understood a little, in fact, there was still a certain difference in the business methods of the Luopu Appraisal Association and the Appraiser Alliance Guild.

Let's talk about the appraiser alliance guild first, which is a pure appraisal hall, and within the guild, it only accepts help from outsiders and maintains the development of the guild by charging appraisal fees.

The Loop Appraisal Society, on the other hand, is a semi-commercial and semi-research institute, where people can seek the help of appraisers to identify equipment, and can also gamble to buy unidentified goods in the store.

In fact, this also has the advantage that unidentified goods will be cheaper than identified equipment, as long as you have a unique eye, you can buy a high-quality equipment or even a holy weapon for very little money.

Of course, there are many disadvantages to this, because the unidentified goods listed for sale are priced by the merchant, and if you can't see the true grade of an unidentified product and buy it, you will often lose a lot of money after identification and can't get what you want.

That's gambling.

Duan Lie and Bills looked at the shops of the Loop Appraisal Association and understood the local owner's business methods, I have to say, this is also a means of collecting money, there are still many people in this world who like to take advantage of opportunism, and they are taking advantage of people's psychology to seek violence. And from a commercial point of view, this practice is obviously not despicable, buying and selling, one is willing to buy, and the other is willing to sell......

When Duan Lie and Bills walked in, there were only three apprentices in appraisal robes at the counter who were taking care of the business in the store, the weather was hot in the middle of summer, and there were no customers in the store, the three of them were each guarding the counter and yawning weakly, and one of them looked like he was asleep with his head drooping.

Duan Lie and Bills glanced at each other, and first walked around the store, the storefront of the guild was divided into three parts, on the left was swords, shields and a variety of unidentified equipment, directly opposite the middle was a dazzling array of emblem stones, and on the right was a variety of colorful potions placed in a grid.

These products have a unified feature, that is, the lower sign indicates the price of each product and some attributes.

These attributes are naturally marked by the people of the Rope Appraisal Association, and the authenticity is not considered first, but it is a means of marketing, because these goods have only been identified by half, that is, the so-called identification procedures, of course, as a business, the Rope Appraisal Association has deliberately reorganized and distributed these commodities in different categories, some are written with a certain appraiser, and some are written with a certain appraisal master, in short, the higher the appraisal level, the more trustworthy the attributes identified by the person, but the price is much higher than other equipmentใ€‚

Duan Lie nodded appreciatively after reading it, not to mention, this kind of business method can indeed stimulate the desire of buyers. It's a pity that he didn't come to pick out the goods today.

Walking to the counter near the door, Duan Lie knocked on the glass window on the counter, and before he could speak, the apprentice squinted his eyes and glanced at Duan Lie dissatisfiedly, probably disturbing his lunch break, and at the same time seeing that Duan Lie's outfit did not look luxurious, he ignored it and said: "Pick what you want, I'll show it to you when I've chosen." Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Duan Lie smiled, the layout of the store can definitely attract customers, but this kind of service attitude is definitely not advisable.

Bills walked over with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, we're here to find someone." โ€

The appraisal apprentice raised his eyebrows, and his expression became even more impatient: "This is the Appraisal Association, if you want to find someone, you should be the Adventurer Association." โ€

Yes, he regarded Duan Lie and Bills as adventurers who submitted the mission.

However, Bills was not angry, and at this time his ability to communicate in the field was reflected, Bills rubbed his hands and said, "Mr. Appraiser, the person I am looking for is the president of your association, Lord Bertrand. โ€

The appraisal apprentice finally came to his senses, and even the two colleagues with him opened their eyes, and the three of them made eye contact for a moment, and then the appraisal apprentice looked at Bills with a vigilant gaze and asked, "Who are you? Lord Bertrand is not something that everyone can see?" He looked at Duan Lie and Bills, and captured their biological ages very well, thinking to himself that these two boys really don't understand the rules, is the president something you can see when you say it?

Duan Lie didn't bother to get angry with an appraisal apprentice, and said lukewarmly: "I'm the president of the Los Branch of the Appraiser Alliance, and I want to meet your president, is it okay?"

"You are Duan ......" The appraisal apprentice's mouth was startled, and he suddenly stopped quickly.

Duan Lie and Bills glanced at each other, and frowned at the same time, it seems that their identities have long been figured out by these guys.

The appraisal apprentice glanced at Duan Lie a few times, made eye contact with the two colleagues, and then the appraisal apprentice who was close to the counter inside opened a door from behind the counter and walked in, and the appraisal apprentice who received them said maliciously, "You wait for a while." โ€

Duan Lie and Bills nodded, and just stood in the store and waited, and after a while, a middle-aged man with a big belly walked out from behind the door of the counter inside, wearing a set of ostentatious identification robes.

Why do you say publicity?

Because he hung the blue emblem of the identity of the appraisal master on his chest very stylishly, but the clothes were the rare light purple, which set off his identity and level very well.

Such a fat man, who was not inferior to Ge Ming, had incomparable pride on his face, and after walking out of the small door and bypassing the counter, he stood in front of Duan Lie and Bills and looked left and right, and asked very unceremoniously: "Which of you is Duan Lie?"

Bills smiled dumbly, silently took a step back and let Duan Lie out, and Duan Lie also introduced himself: "Your Excellency, I am Duan Lie. โ€

The man raised his head proudly, and pointed at Duan Lie with two black hole nostrils: "I'm Benny, the vice president of the appraisal association, I heard that you are looking for my brother, although I know that you are the branch president appointed by the Tianfeng Empire Appraiser Alliance Guild, but you are not qualified to see my brother, and you are not even qualified to see me, but I am a very easy-going person, I made an exception to meet you today, and said, what is the matter with you?"

Benny's rhetoric was an eye-opener for Duan Lie and Beers, to be honest, they had seen a lot of guys who felt good about themselves, but none of them were more narcissistic than Benny.

Duan Lie is here to calm things today, not to look for trouble, although Benny's words are extremely aggressive, Duan Lie still controls his emotions very well and smiles slightly: "Okay, Master Benny, I'll just say it straight, my people ...... this morning"

Before he could finish his words, he saw Benny waving his hand and interrupted: "I know about this morning, your people were beaten by our people, what's wrong?"
