Chapter 372: The Way to Make Money
"I see that this brother is young, your cultivation should be good, if you want to find some pills, then you have found the right place. ”
Seeing Lu Mingfei was quite interested, the receptionist said the names of some pills, but for Lu Mingfei, he felt relatively unfamiliar, some of them had been seen in the classics, and most of the elixirs needed were things in the sea, so they did not appear in the pills collected by Yan Lingshan, but these were only some second- and third-grade pills.
"Are there any higher-level elixirs?"
Lu Mingfei asked again, and the receptionist nodded and said: "Yes, yes, I won't tell you, these pills are originally from my auction house, as far as I know, there will be five-grade pills that are put up for auction from time to time, and if the situation is good, they can even be auctioned for a price ranging from 50,000 to 80,000, but my status is low, and I don't know much about this kind of high-grade pills, and I don't know the specific name." ”
With that, the receptionist smiled sheepishly.
Lu Mingfei continued to ask, "Then do you accept pills at auction? For example, four or five grades of pills?"
The reception was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "I haven't heard of receiving pills, if you have pills that you want to sell, our auction house can help you sell them." ”
Touching his storage bag, the elixir stored in it was already empty, Lu Mingfei continued to ask, "Do you have any elixirs for refining pills for sale here?"
As Lu Mingfei estimated, the Coral Auction House was indeed very similar to Fang Yuanzhai, and the large-scale auction houses had a large number of elixir reserves, and they would also sell all kinds of elixirs.
However, to Lu Mingfei's surprise, at least half of the elixirs sold here have never been seen, most of them are things that grow on the bottom of the sea, and there are also some common elixirs in Zhongzhou, but they are more than several times more expensive than Zhongzhou.
After looking at it carefully for a long time, silently reciting the names of unfamiliar elixirs one after another, Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered the pills he had obtained on Danhua Island, many of which were in front of him, including Haiyue Pill, Water Spirit Pill, Tortoiseshell Pill and other three more widely used five-grade pills.
After a rough calculation, Lu Mingfei took out all the nearly ten thousand spirit stones on his body, replaced them with the materials needed for these three pills, and after making preparations, he returned to his room to prepare for alchemy.
The Nine Sons Panlong Ding had not been used for a long time, and Lu Mingfei's alchemy technique was somewhat rusty, and he tried three furnaces of refining in succession but failed.
Now Lu Mingfei has long since lost his initial impetuousness, and several failures have not caused him any blows, but have made his heart much calmer.
There is still a certain difference between refining elixir in the sea elixir and the alchemy that we have known before, especially most aquatic elixirs cannot withstand the strong fire, and a reasonable grasp of the fire has also become the key to alchemy.
Finally again
After trying, Lu Mingfei successively refined each of the three pills in one furnace, and harvested a total of twelve five-grade pills.
For the number of twelve pieces of the Three Furnace Cheng Dan, it is simply beyond the reach of other Five Rank Pill pharmacists, and they dare not think of it.
Looking at the fruitful harvest, Lu Mingfei nodded with satisfaction, and soon found the receptionist before.
Ke Lina was left alone in the room, and after eating, she felt a little bored inexplicably, and came to Lu Mingfei's room, just in time for Lu Mingfei to buy the elixir.
"Didn't this kid really go out to find sharks?"
With a chuckle, she muttered to herself and walked towards the outside of the auction hall, although she was a princess, Corina's life experience was extremely limited, and she had not been to many places, and overseas exotic places such as Coral City really attracted her.
Walking along the long street to the east, I looked at the scenery everywhere, and was suddenly attracted by the chaotic shouts coming from ahead.
Looking up, not far in front of me is a building with a special shape, half of the wall is painted with a big word "gamble", just standing outside, you can hear the noisy shouts from inside.
"Gambling house?"
Corina had heard of the gambling houses that existed among the people, but she had never seen them in person, and her curiosity was troubled, so she strode towards the gambling houses.
The gambling house was smoky, deafening, and mixed with all kinds of people, far from being as interesting as Kelina imagined, frowning and looking around, really feeling a little noisy and planning to leave early.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a woman with a charming look and a flowery branch pasted up.
The woman saw that Kelina was dressed brightly and was a rare outsider, so she naturally wouldn't let it go easily, and said with a smile: "This brother, since you're here, don't you try your luck with both hands?"
As she spoke, the chest with two clam shells came towards Ke Lina, who was a little embarrassed in her heart, hurriedly took a step back, and said a little shyly: "I'm just going to come in and take a look, I won't do this." ”
The woman chuckled and said, "What's so difficult about this, since my brother can't do it, then find a simple game to play, just guess the size." ”
After saying that, regardless of whether Corina agreed or not, he pulled her towards a small hall in the gambling house.
In contrast, there were indeed many fewer people in the small hall, but there were many women among them, all of them scantily dressed, and some even had ropes and chains on their bodies.
The woman pulled Kelina to a table and said: "This is the simplest, bet on the size to buy one and lose one, if you can guess the point and the odds are higher, brother may as well try your luck." ”
Although Kelina has never been in the casino, she still has a little understanding of this kind of betting on the size of the game, and looked at the stands above, from time to time someone threw out the ground step spirit stones, and as the dice cup opened, some people were excited
Xin, some people scolded.
After watching two games, Kelina casually took out a middle-level spirit stone, and threw it out when everyone was betting, and threw it on the "big" bet.
"Wow!"
There were nearly 100 spirit stones piled up on the table, but they were all lower steps, and suddenly a middle-level spirit stone appeared, and the light instantly covered the other spirit stones, and at the same time caused an uproar around.
"Buy and leave!"
The dealer shouted, then opened the dice, followed by a loud laugh.
"Three, three, six, twelve o'clock! Good luck for this brother!"
With bursts of envy and cheers, the dealer pushed Ke Lina's middle-rank spirit stone and a hundred lower-level spirit stones down in front of Ke Lina, and did not forget to congratulate him a few times.
It was really difficult for Ke Lina to be too excited by just a hundred spirit stones, so after smiling faintly, she continued to throw a mid-level spirit stone and bet on it.
It's just that this time Kelina didn't have the same luck as before, and the dice cup opened "two-two-four, eight-o'clock small", and there were a few regretful voices around her.
Ke Lina didn't care about this spirit stone at all, but she didn't like the feeling of losing, and then took out two mid-level spirit stones to buy a big one, but she lost again.
Ke Lina's face remained unchanged, and she took out three and six mid-level spirit stones successively, or bought big, as long as she won once, she could return all of them, but it was a pity that they were still two small ones one after another.
The noisy surroundings have gradually become much quieter, and at first there will be other people betting while Collina is betting, but after three rounds, everyone has withdrawn the spirit stone, and they watch Colina gamble alone.
According to her previous routine, this bet should be twelve mid-level spirit stones, which is not a small number in the gambling house, enough to make the surrounding onlookers open their eyes one by one and swallow their saliva.
Kelina was about to take out the spirit stone to place a bet, but the sleeve of her shirt was pulled, and when she looked sideways, she saw a young man standing beside her and whispered to her: "This brother, can you take a step to speak?"
Out of curiosity, Kelina followed the man to a corner, and before she could ask, she heard the man say: "Brother, betting on the size is not a game like yours, listen to my advice, it's better to leave early, you are like this, how many spirit stones you have is not enough to lose." ”
"Huh?"
Corina was slightly curious and cast an inquiring look.
Seeing that she didn't seem to care too much, the young man had to point to the table and said: "Look at that person, I don't know how many years he has been immersed in the dice cup, with his means, he can shake as many points as he wants, usually the size of the two sides is about the same, there are wins and losses for each other, but your play has become a one-sided bet, and you will only keep losing." ”
Kelina nodded, then smiled again and said, "I see, I'll just go and win back what I lost." ”
