Chapter 416: Goal Setting
"City Lord!" Liu Fei asked Xue Xiaotian, "Dare to ask, what will happen if the Xuanshi is not sold?"
"I don't know, but I do know that after the auction, all the stones will be on display in the hall for people to enjoy!"
"Next is the second primordial stone!" As he spoke, Elder Lu came to the second Liuyun Xuanshi, and he pointed to the Xuanshi in front of him and introduced: "This Xuanshi is three feet high and one foot wide, and the Liuyun is between three and four yards, starting with five hundred taels!"
"Three to four yards, not as high as the one just now, and it's still so expensive, aren't you afraid of losing the auction again?" After Tianxuan Ji heard Elder Lu's introduction, she underestimated to herself, and she couldn't figure out why the other party was so priced.
"Six hundred!" Just when Tianxuan Ji was questioning the suitability, she didn't expect someone to bid soon.
"No!" she said in surprise as she looked at the bidders in the audience.
"Six hundred and five!" Before Tian Xuan Ji could come out of her surprise, someone made another offer.
"Seven hundred!"
"What's wrong with these people, isn't this stone bigger, the density of flowing clouds is not as high as it was just now, why are so many people bidding?" Tianxuan Ji couldn't sit still, she stood up, looking at the stone as much as possible, always trying to find out the mystery.
"Although the density of that dark stone is not as big as the one just now, it is not low, and if it really has a density of four yards, it is not bad. Liufei seemed to have expected all this, after all, he was also an expert in shipbuilding, seeing that Tianxuan Ji was puzzled, he said again: "After all, as a core, it is not the density of the Xuanshi, although the density is high, the more spiritual power can be stored under the same volume, but the low-density Xuanshi can make up for these problems through the volume, and the higher the density of the Xuanshi, the more difficult it is to process it into a core." ”
"Why, the higher the density, the better?" Tianxuan Ji suddenly realized, "No wonder these people are actually coaxing this No. 2 Xuanshi that is even larger. ”
"At the same size, the higher the density, the better, but the more difficult it is to refine in the later stage, while looking at the stone just now, it only costs two hundred taels, and it will cost hundreds of taels to make a core, and it is too cost-effective to use it on a small spirit ship. Liufei introduced.
"Oh, I think it might be a lot easier if I come to refine!" Ye Hua looked out the window, and he said lightly. "Unfortunately, I don't know how to make a core yet. ”
"Shangxian really has this ability?" Ye Hua's words attracted Liufei's attention, and he said to Ye Hua with some excitement: "If you really have this ability, I can tell you the method of refining, so that we can choose those Xuanshi that are high in density and small in size, and no one dares to start, maybe we can pick up a leak." ”
"Hahahaha!" Xue Xiaotian laughed when he heard Liufei's words, he also looked at Ye Hua and said thoughtfully: "The Xuanshi auctioned today are all there, judging from the size, except for the No. 1 just now, it is the fourth smallest, Ye Hua is immortal, you can pay attention to that piece." ”
"I don't know if the Snow City Lord has a crush on which piece?" Ye Hua asked Xue Xiaotian tentatively.
"I don't know much about these, I originally came here to bring my own ship-making monks, but in order to repair the broken Flowing Spirit Ship, they couldn't pull away, originally they came to take a trip to see the situation, but I didn't expect to meet you, building a giant Flowing Spirit Ship is not an overnight thing, and I didn't plan to start today, but since the Immortal is here, and there are disciples of the Flowing Spirit Sect, then I just recommend it to me?" Xue Xiaotian heard Ye Hua ask himself this, and he also asked Ye Hua for advice.
"I don't quite understand this, but it's good to show the city lord the stone, but the specific stone is more suitable for the core depends on the design of the ship itself. After Ye Hua finished speaking, he skimmed Liufei, "Shangliufei should have more say than me on this point." ”
"Don't worry, when a suitable Xuanshi appears, I will definitely recommend it to the city lord!"
"900 taels!" After a while, the No. 2 Xuanshi had been called to nine hundred taels, but it still didn't seem to be over, and there was a higher price coming out.
"One thousand taels!"
"One thousand taels!" Tian Xuanji exclaimed, "The cost of a ship is only one thousand taels, and if this kind of stone is used, the cost will be increased." ”
"But the performance will be improved several times!" Liufei came to the window and silently watched the hot bidding in the audience. "Have you noticed that most of the bidders are disciples of the Shipbuilding Immortal Sect. ”
"These immortal factions build ships for others, in order to highlight their shipbuilding strength, they will do whatever it takes to build a flowing spirit ship that can highlight their own strength, and these immortal factions have no more financial resources than this, it is impossible to improve the standard infinitely, and it is very long to use this medium-sized rough stone to build a medium-sized flowing spirit ship, so even if the Xuanshi is more expensive, you have to clap your hands. "After all, Liufei was sent by Shui Shuixian, and he still knows a lot about the shipbuilding industry.
"That means that it's not a loss to buy a Xuanshi as the core for a thousand taels?" Tianxuan Ji understood what Liufei meant: "If you build an excellent ship, you can improve the status of your Immortal Sect and get more shipbuilding orders?"
"It's really straightforward, no matter how others are immortals, how can you say it like a shipyard?" Although Guo Yue felt that Tianxuan Ji understood it finely, she still couldn't help but complain.
"Hey, Tianxuanji is right. Liufei also laughed self-deprecatingly: "To a certain extent, isn't the Immortal Sect that built the Flowing Spirit Ship actually a shipyard, but a shipyard with a higher technical content, everyone has no idea of cultivating the Immortal Dao at all, and they all want to make the most outstanding Flowing Spirit Ship." ”
"It's also a pursuit. Ye Hua saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and he also came to help the round, "People live in the world, is it true that only cultivating immortals is the right way, as long as you can continue to pursue your ideals, it is the best life." ”
"What Shangxian said is true!" Liufei heard Ye Hua's words, and felt that the general warm current flowed into his heart, and nodded unconsciously, maybe this is also what he has always wanted others to agree with him.
In the end, the No. 2 Primordial Stone was obtained by a disciple of the Immortal Sect for 1,200 taels, and I saw that those disciples seemed to be still celebrating, while those who did not take the picture were disappointed for a while. On the other hand, Elder Lu on the stage congratulated the people under the auction, and his smiling face showed a trace of indifference, which made Ye Hua see it.
"This Elder Lu doesn't seem to have much trouble selling the rough stone at such a high price, is it still too low?" Ye Hua was very puzzled, and he pondered the reason.
"Next!" Before the crowd could hear down, Elder Lu couldn't wait to announce the start of the next round of bidding. "The No. 3 rough stone is more than two feet high, two feet wide, and the flowing clouds are five yards!
This stone once again caused everyone to scramble, and those immortal sects who had not grabbed it before began to bid one after another, and the price also rose, and soon exceeded one thousand taels, and finally sold for one thousand five hundred taels. Looking at the happy looks of those people in the audience, Guo Yue's expression was puzzled.
"What's wrong?" Ye Hua saw in his eyes, and he asked casually, "What's the problem?"
"Master!" Guo Yue pointed to the attic around him: "The people sitting in the rooms around us should also be the people who came here to bid, why did they all come out with three rough stones, and they didn't react at all." ”
"Miss Guo, I don't know. Xue Xiaotian walked over at this time and enthusiastically explained to Guo Yue: "The one who can sit on it is the real gold master, the rough stone that was auctioned just now is not ranked at all in the eyes of these people, you see that the huge Xuanshi is not, these people are all here for this." ”
"Oh!" Guo Yue, under the guidance of Xue Xiaotian, saw that there was a Xuanshi covered by cloth behind Elder Lu, and this Xuanshi could be seen from its huge appearance.
"Although the rough stone was not shown just now, I have news before that there will be a huge rough stone that has never appeared in this auction, and even if you can't get it, it is good to come and see the excitement. ”
Xue Xiaotian's words made Ye Hua and the others fall into deep thought, they didn't expect that there would be such a huge Liuyun Xuanshi, especially Liufei, in his eyes, a three-foot-sized Liuyun Xuanshi could make a particularly good spiritual flow ship.
"If it is made of this kind of dark stone, then even the largest ship can move forward at a high speed, and can withstand the strongest storm!" Liu Fei looked at the flowing cloud stone stupidly, although he had not yet seen its true face, he had already imagined the glorious picture of that huge spirit ship in his mind.
"How much does this kind of Xuanshi cost!" Tianxuan Ji exclaimed.
"It's not a matter of money, if you can really use this thing to improve the strength of a country's Spiriting Fleet, even the whole country will have to take it. Xue Xiaotian shrugged his shoulders, it seemed that these were normal things.
"If you don't have a good design, no matter how strong the core is, it won't work, but it will be limited, or the most suitable is the best, there is no need to blindly pursue a strong core. Liufei put forward his own opinion at this time, in his opinion, although everything here looks so good, it seems to be so bad.
"Brother Liufei's insights are very unique. Xue Xiaotian appreciated, "But the current ship design is at the end, and more people are willing to focus on the strengthening of the core, after all, this can be achieved only by using financial and material resources." ”
"Hey!" Liufei didn't speak, but sighed, he seemed to have something to say, but he couldn't.
While a few more people were talking, Elder Lu auctioned off two more Xuan Stones, and after that, he took out another bite, this one looked like it was only the size of his palm. Elder Lu also introduced: "This Liuyun Xuanshi is less than a foot in length and width, of which Liuyun is eight yards, it is the highest Xuanyun in Liuyun so far, with a starting price of one thousand taels!"
After Elder Lu finished speaking, he saw that everyone below shook their heads and waved their hands again and again, as if they were not optimistic about this stone.
"It's too small, what can I do!"
"Yes, eight yards, who can refine this thing, refining is not as good as those one or two yards of waste rough stones. ”
"It's refining, so big, how much spiritual power can be stored, the big ship can't be used, the small boat is wasted, I'm afraid that the cost of refining alone is higher than building a ship. ”
Seeing that this Xuanshi may be about to be auctioned again as before, Elder Lu didn't think so, he was about to let his subordinates accept this original stone, and when he was about to pick up the stone, he suddenly heard a woman's voice in the attic calling out, the voice was crisp and pleasant, very good.
"One thousand one hundred taels!" The woman was Guo Yue, and I saw her head poking out of the window and quoting her price downstairs.
"The guest of Tianzi Room No. 3 offers one thousand and one hundred taels!" Elder Lu looked upstairs, it was an unfamiliar face, and he repeated.
"Now the price is one hundred and one taels, is there anyone else?"
