At noon the next day, Le Qicai was woken up by the little pine cone, woke up from sleep, the strength of the wine was almost completely gone, stretched his waist, the bones crackled, yawned, pushed open the window and looked at the bright sunshine outside, it was another beautiful day!

In the afternoon, the two of them will agree to sign up for the Qian Jiaozi Picking Competition, since the competition is initiated by the Adventurer's Guild, then the registration location is naturally the Adventurer's Guild.

After entering the Adventurer's Guild, the two of them squeezed through the crowd familiarly, and soon came to the registration service area located on the first floor. Maybe it's because of the opening of registration, at a glance, there are really a lot of people in front of each service point, and there is a lot of black pressure.

After waiting for two or three quarters of an hour, it was the turn of the two of them. The maid standing in the service point was busy and dizzy, but she still kept smiling, and the latter asked in a sweet voice: "Two adventurers, but are you here to sign up for the money hanging picking contest to be held the day after tomorrow?" Since most of the adventurers have come to sign up for the contest in recent days, most of the maids will ask directly, so as to save some time.

Le Qi nodded and affirmed, "Well, I don't know how the registration process is?"

The maid pulled out a form from the side, and after skillfully filling in some content in the corresponding position, she continued: "Okay, the process is not complicated, the applicant only needs to show the adventurer certificate, and after registration. However, there is one thing that Lian'er needs to remind the two of you that there is a prerequisite for the Qian Hangzi Picking Competition, that is, you must have a Void Ring to participate. ”

Hearing this, the two of them, who signed up for the first time, felt a little strange, but it was not that they did not have the Void Ring, in fact, Le Qi alone had two. (Originally, there was not more than that, but he felt a little troublesome, so he found a time to sell the excess Void Ring a few days ago) Just participating in a money hanger picking competition, what does it have to do with the Void Ring? Picking money hangers doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Void Ring, right? Or is it that there are too many of them for the contestants to carry? Or is it that the Adventurers' Guild has specially set such a hard rule, the purpose is just to promote the consumption of the Void Ring? It doesn't seem to make sense, right?

Not quite understanding, Le Qi asked puzzledly, "Miss Lian'er, I don't quite understand why I need a Void Ring to participate in the Qian Hangzi Competition?

Seeing that the two of them didn't know the reason for the rules of the competition, the maid explained with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, that's the case, according to the rules of the Qian Jiaozi Picking Competition, it must be counted by picking fresh Qian Jiaozi within three days of the competition, so in order to identify the picking time of Qian Jiaozi, you must use the Void Ring's delay time function to do it." That's why there's such a premise for signing up for the competition. However, the specific principle is too complicated, and Lian'er doesn't understand it very well, so after the registration is successful, the two of you can bring a manual to read carefully. ”

"Oh, that's right. What about this one in my hand?" With that, Le Qi raised his hand and lightly touched the Void Ring under the gaze of the maid, causing it to flash red, demonstrating that this was indeed a Void Ring.

Seeing this, the maid nodded and replied, "Yes, in the end, I have to trouble the two of you to show the adventurer's certificate for registration." ”

"Okay. The two took out a token from the Void Ring, handed it to the maid, and after a brief registration, the latter respectfully handed it back to the former along with a certificate of participation and instruction manual. Then, the two casually thanked each other and left.

After the two of them read it carefully, they could roughly understand the specific purpose of the Void Ring. As the maid Lian'er said, this needs to start with the basic rules of the competition.

The three-day Hanging Picking Contest costs more than twice as much as the usual price of the Hanging Seeds and the month-long Picking Festival. Obviously, there is still a lot of money to be made by acquiring the Adventurer's Guild at a price higher than thirty percent, but raising it to twice the price is basically a loss-making transaction, if it is just a money picked in three days with such a selling price, there is naturally no problem, after all, the amount is very limited.

Although the Adventurer's Guild has a rule that the money hangers that are required to be 30% or twice the selling price must be picked within the specified time, the regulations are one thing, if there is no ability to test and discern, this rule is a non-binding nonsense, and the medicine pickers will sell the money picked for a whole year in these three days, won't they be able to make a lot of extra money!

This kind of thing has nothing to do with quality and conscience, after all, who doesn't want to do this kind of good thing! Isn't it crazy that a large public organization has a huge loophole in its own operation, and in the end wants to use the moral banner of quality and conscience to make the masses who take advantage of the loopholes pay for it!

If the forces behind this organization absolutely rule the public, such as huge organizations directly opened by the Imperial Family Linlang Sect, then there is nothing to say, and the public can only pay obediently. But if this organization has not reached this level, sorry, this pot is not supported by the public, as a business organization, it should fully consider all kinds of risks, and at any time to take responsibility for its own wrong judgment and decision-making, this should be fully considered before operation, and all kinds of unexpected situations should have been included in the operating costs. If the organization cannot continue to operate for various reasons or even just because of the miscalculation of the quality and cultivation of the service object, then unfortunately, this pot can only be carried by the organization itself, and no one else is to blame.

Back to the topic, since the Qian Jiaozi Picking Festival and the competition have been held for so many times, the Adventurers' Guild is still happy to hold it, which naturally means that this problem has been solved. How to solve it?

First of all, the month-long high three-percent price identification problem, how to determine whether a string of money hangers are produced in this month? This is not difficult, even if it is not recorded in the manual, Leqi can guess one or two by virtue of the information he knows, it is very simple, because in the summer of one or two months, Qian Jiaozi is not only easier to enter the maturity period, but also the medicinal effect will be much stronger, so when the purchase is tested, its medicinal properties can be roughly judged The picking time can be judged, although the accurate picking time cannot be detected, but as long as the medicinal effect is better, the price of more than three percent of the purchase, in fact, it is nothing.

Secondly, how to distinguish between the double price of this three-day period? If you want to do this, you need to rely on another characteristic of Qian Hangzi and the special role of the Void Ring. First, the money hanger has a little characteristic, within two quarters of an hour of picking, its picking section will be black, and the inside of the Void Ring has an incomparably powerful slow time function due to the compression of a large proportion, basically the internal time of three or four days is only two quarters of an hour from the outside. In this way, as long as the medicine picker picks the money pendant and quickly seals it into the Void Ring, it can ensure that its intercept does not turn black within a certain period of time, so that when the medicine is inspected, the picking time can be identified by checking the color of the intercept.

And this is the reason why the Qian Hangzi Picking Contest will set up that contestants need to have a Void Ring, and even the Void Wrist, Void Box and other Void Containers with a low degree of compression are difficult to work. Of course, it's not entirely impossible, if someone insists on doing so, some wrists with a higher compression ratio may be able to make do, but the storage time must not be three days, maybe a day and a half is barely feasible. At the same time, there are also some extremely high-quality Void Rings, due to the larger compression ratio of the internal space, the time will be slower, and even storing it for seven or eight days is not a problem, if someone cheats with this, the Adventurer's Guild will indeed not be able to detect it, but this is only a few cases, even if all the money hangers picked in the last ten days are purchased at twice the price, in fact, it is not harmful.

............

Two days later, at the opening ceremony of the Qian Jiaozi Picking Competition, the huge competition field and the surrounding area were densely packed with contestants, Le Qi and Zhang Soul Jun were mixed in it, because there were too many people, so that who was on the high platform, what they said, they were not very clear, but occasionally came a few chaotic words and tones, so as to guess where they were probably speaking.

Soon after, the words of the people on the stage came to an end, as if announcing key information such as the start of the competition, and the contestants in the audience heard a burst of cheers, and the two also shouted two voices with others in a daze, and then dispersed with the flow of people.

Coming to an area with a small number of people, Zhang Xunjun patted Le Qi's shoulder, signaled him to stop, quickly opened a map, and asked, "Old Seven, where are you going to collect medicine today?"

After a few days of familiarity, the two are quite familiar, so the two have long discarded the set of Wen Zou Zou's choking tone.

Le Qi touched his chin and analyzed in detail: "According to my estimates, the contestants this time may reach tens of thousands, and most of them are not very strong, so they are likely to choose to search on the periphery of the Ronan Mountain Range, in that case, you and I basically can't find much elixir, so we should go deep into the mountain range as soon as possible, at least fifty miles to start, or start the search from the area where we last met the lion's mouth?"

"It's okay, let's go there, I saw a lot of money hangers in that area last time, there should be a lot of them. Zhang Soul Jun agreed, and then took out a piece of metal armor from the Void Ring, put it on in three or two times, showed it off, and smiled proudly at Le Qi: "How about it, the equipment I just bought in the past two days, is it a match for me!"

Seeing that the other party also got a piece of defensive armor, Le Qi looked at it carefully, and it seemed that the quality was not bad, but when he saw the former's decay, he shook his head and teased: "The armor is not bad, but you still want to be heroic when you wear it?"

"Fuck your uncle, you're stupid! Don't know how to appreciate!" Zhang Xunjun immediately shot back.

"Let's go, stop talking nonsense!"

"Let's go!"
