Chapter Seventy-Eight: Too Interesting
β...... I can't believe that you would be so righteous. Meng Yan said: "Senior sister, you are so interesting, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to get in, as soon as you show your face, they will open the door immediately, it's really majestic." β
"Don't thank me, I didn't really help much, I just happened to receive the invitation here before, they gave me some face, maybe it was to give my master face, if you really want to say prestige, how can it compare to the two of you, although I oppose you to go to Senior Brother Mu for my sake to ask for guilt...... He may not be innocent at all......"
Huang Lihe's eyes darkened, and then he cheered up again, and said with a smile: "But I heard that the two of you made a big fuss, the two of you repelled a vote of formal disciples, suppressed the scene, and even a big person like Elder Qian was squeezed by you, and later ripped Elder Lan down, causing a big storm, and now all the senior sisters are discussing your affairs, saying that in the history of Qianxue Peak, there has never been a miscellaneous servant like you, and you are very majestic." β
Meng Yan and Hu Qingtian glanced at each other, they didn't have much sense of majesty, this matter is so big, if they lose the big competition, of course, they will be driven out, even if they win, all kinds of tangible and invisible pressures will force them to stay.
"I heard that you are looking for a third comrade-in-arms, right? It's a pity that you are men, and you are under the banner of servant to official disciple, otherwise, I would have joined you directly. β
Huang Lihe said, holding Meng Yan's hand, as if she wanted to simply express support, but the blazing enthusiasm in her eyes made Meng Yan a little frightened, she seemed to have seen similar eyes in Ye Jielin's eyes before, but the strange thing is that it is clear that Hu Qingtian is her number one supporter and admirer, what is she doing if she doesn't shake Hu Qingtian's hand?
Hu Qingtian coughed lightly, Huang Lily retracted his hand in lightning, and for a moment, Meng Yan felt even more strange, because the expression was very special, it was like a little couple stealing affection, but was caught by the elders, although Hu Qingtian was older than Huang Lily, he was not an elder, and Huang Lily's identity was even higher than that of Hu Qingtian, the chief of the miscellaneous servants, showing such a look, how could it be explained......
"Huang ...... Girl. Hu Qingtian hesitated: "You don't really plan to sell your battle clothes, do you? I will never agree to this, Jin Xia Liuyun clothes are your most important thing, how can you abuse them in this kind of place?"
"It's not the most important thing for me, it's always a person, not a thing. β
Huang Lihe looked at Hu Qingtian, said very seriously, then sighed again, and said: "I don't plan to sell it, but if I don't say so, how can people let you in? You want to come and buy some weapons and exercises, right? I brought all the money, and I don't know if the road is enough, you won't buy too expensive ones, right? Alas, why don't you pick other houses? The things in duckweed house are good, but they are also notoriously black, and the things must be very expensive. β
Hearing Huang Lihe say this, with a slightly naΓ―ve tone, Meng Yan secretly laughed at himself, the reason why he picked duckweed, instead of picking several other big auction organizations, was because of the blackness of duckweed. In all the auctions, the characteristic of duckweed is black, almost more than sixty percent of the underground dark market transactions, all kinds of shady stolen goods and black transactions, they are all protected, it can be said that it is the first choice for selling stolen goods.
There are pros and cons, since duckweed is a big confluence of black trading and stolen goods, the price is very hard, from the comprehensive evaluation on the book, it seems that you will not buy fakes here, and they are usually worth the money, but you get what you pay for, and the price of wanting to buy good things definitely hurts people's flesh to the bone.
"It's been a long time. β
The middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper came out again, and his eyes were completely different when he looked at Meng Yan and Hu Qingtian, just from this point, Meng Yan knew that he had just gone in to investigate the latest information, and he must have already known that the turmoil caused by the two of them knew his own intentions.
"The surname is Peng, the three of you can directly call me the shopkeeper Peng, I don't know what kind of weapons do you want to choose?"
"Do you have any weapons here?" Huang Baihe Qi said: "I know that the duckweed house is very strong, but isn't this a transshipment branch?
"The inventory is not much, we have a catalogue in our hands, a few distinguished customers in advance, if you fancy something, we will be shipped in the shortest possible time, delivered to your customers. β
"That'...... Do you have any good stuff here?"
"It's hard to say whether it's good or not, as far as the values of our name are concerned, everything has value, but it depends on whether you meet someone who knows and understands the goods...... Of course, a few people are not here to listen to the high-profile, so let me praise Haikou, in short, all the weapons, from the treasure soldiers left by the emperor-level strongmen, down to ordinary knives and swords, or any other weapons, as long as a few people can shout, we can start for you. β
The shopkeeper Peng said: "However, what we do is business, everything is a paid behavior, what I just said, the only major premise is that you can pay for it, whether it is money, exercises, herbs, or rarity, as long as it is valuable, you are welcome to become the guests of honor at any time like now." β
"Really? Bring me the catalogue and open my eyes. β
Hu Qingtian was ready to go, but was stopped by Meng Yan, "The catalog must be read, but you don't need to rush to see it first, let me ask you, brother, what kind of weapon do you plan to want?"
"This ...... It should be the more common kind, right? Knives, swords or something, our Qianxue Peak is also famous for swords, and it is normal to choose swords. β
"Do you know how to use a sword?"
"No!"
"Sure enough, right? I don't think you will, I haven't seen you wield a sword at all, you are empty-handed in any fight, and suddenly said that you want to collect a sword as a weapon, even if someone else really gives you one, you don't know how to use it, right?"
"How is that good? Qianxue Peak's disciples don't practice swords and other things, isn't this a shameless?"
"Yo, that's a good point, if we lose and are blasted out of Qianxue Peak together, then you will really know what it means to be shameless!"
"Then what should I do? The sword is not easy to use, should I match the shape of the body and change to some large ones?" Hu Qingtian frowned and said, "What kind of big knives, spears, maces, etc., these are more suitable for me?"
"You don't have to have a weapon. Huang Lihe interjected: "Since Senior Brother Tiger has an amazing amount of strength and is used to using fists, you can consider those weapons that assist in boxing, boxing gloves, bracers and the like, I heard the rumors of the rivers and lakes that the master said, and some predecessors do not use weapons, and fight a piece of the world purely with their hands, although there are fewer people, but there are really no successful cases." β
Hu Qingtian and Huang Lihe discussed very seriously, while Meng Yan paid attention to the expression of the shopkeeper Peng, and found that although his face was respectful and sincere, a trace of ridicule occasionally flashed in his eyes, just like watching a joke and watching a good show on the side, it was obvious that the other party knew that although these two customers had future possibilities and needed to be politely received, at least for the time being, they were not the ones who could afford to pay for it, and they couldn't afford to take out any high-end things.
This estimate is also in line with reality, after all, one of these two people is a handyman, just a gorilla with brute strength, and the other is a celebrity of Qianxuefeng, but just had an accident, the market is bearish, duckweed Juken politely welcomes people in, it is already very face-giving, and if you really take out the catalog later, there must be many powerful weapons in it, maybe there is that kind of good goods that make people's jaws drop, but the price of those things ...... It will definitely make people scare to pee their pants, if this happens, then the three of them will really be underestimated and regarded as fools.
"Shopkeeper, don't look at the catalog first, I want to buy a hundred catties of Xuanwu obsidian, this thing is not a rare commodity, Guibao should have it, right?"
"Xuanwu Obsidian, the treasure iron used to build a Saint King-level weapon?"
Shopkeeper Peng frowned, revealing a puzzled look, first of all, there are not many customers who don't buy weapons and buy raw materials directly, but everyone who dares to do this will be treated cautiously by duckweed, because there are many excellent craftsmen who have the ability to process raw materials into finished products are definitely much less than the excellent martial artists in the Quartet...... Less than much!
Moreover, although the Xuanwu Obsidian Iron is a treasure iron for creating a Saint King-level weapon, among the various materials of the same level, the quality crane tail of this thing is not a really good thing, and the word treasure iron is a little out of line, and the price is relatively cheaper, but any craftsman who has the ability to forge a weapon is usually not short of this money, unless it is the work of some new apprentices......
Thinking about it like this, Shopkeeper Peng looked at Meng Yan's gaze, and he was a little more clear, but he also added a little more caution, and asked carefully: "The Xuanwu obsidian material is neutral, not chilling, but the quality is not very good, although it is rumored that there are master craftsmen who can transform the material of obsidian iron by means of reaching the sky, but that is also based on the fire of the supreme yang and heat, I am afraid that the ice jade cold fire of your faction will not be able to deal with it, right?"
"Shopkeeper Peng is really an insider. Meng Yan nodded and said, "We really didn't think about it so much, what kind of transformation material, we didn't think about it at all, we just thought about our purse and wanted to buy something that could be paid, so you understand Shopkeeper Peng?"
"Understood, then...... One hundred catties of Xuanwu obsidian iron is about this number. β
Shopkeeper Peng wrote a number on the table, Hu Qingtian and Huang Lily's faces changed immediately, they didn't know how much the price of the Dao Saint King-level weapon should be in the market, but even so, the cost of this raw material was too expensive, Hu Qingtian looked at Huang Lily, and from her expression, she knew that the money she brought was not enough, and she was about to propose to Meng Yan that he should lower his goal and buy some weapons at the level of forging bones and easy tendons, Meng Yan had already stood up and said to the shopkeeper Peng: " Shopkeeper, as you can see, we are really not rich tyrants, about the price, can you take a step to speak?"
