Chapter 4 The Waste Artifact (Part 2)
Ge Zheng had already changed into a loose alchemy robe like a cloak, and the badge was hung on the robe, making him no longer look so out of place with the world. So the soldiers at the gate of the city did not leave him difficult, but just pointed to the magic box beside him: "Tax of two gold coins to enter the city."
The magic box can only be opened by the Count himself. If someone wants to force the box to open it and take away the gold coins inside, the self-destructive magic will be activated and will be blown up together with the violent unboxer.
Ge Zheng looked sideways and said, "What a guy, this box is more than half a person tall and two people long. It is mounted on a sturdy flatbed cart with two monsters as strong as rhinoes tied to it. Ge Zheng did not expect that a city entry tax in Wangshan City would actually require such a large box to pack. It seems that there are quite a few adventurers here looking for luck."
Seeing that he was hesitant, the guard hooked his fingers and whispered: "We can put you in private, just one gold coin, but you don't have to put it in the box."
Ge Zheng was a little surprised. He looked up and saw that when he was talking to the guard, the other guards looked like other places. It seemed that they had a tacit understanding.
Ge Zheng smiled and stuffed a gold coin into the soldier's hand. The soldier waved his hand and put him into the city.
As soon as Ge Zheng left, a group of soldiers surrounded him. "Hehe, I know that the alchemist is rich, or Little Dick, you are smart. The tax on entering the city with a silver coin increased to two gold coins at the first time. The fool really took out a gold coin obediently..."
After being labeled as stupid, Ge Zheng also presented the city lord with the best stupid prize in Wangshan City: put a box at the gate that cannot be opened by others and thought it would prevent the corruption of his subordinates. In fact, as long as the box is slightly changed, a surveillance magic is added, and the two magics are refined on a magic item, you can easily supervise the subordinates so that the city lord's gold coins will not flow into the soldiers' pockets.
However, ordinary alchemists only know how to engrave a magic circle on one item. If you want to overprint more than two magic circles, you need at least the level of eighth level alchemist or above. Of course, monsters like Ge Zheng cannot be based on the theory of the common theory.
When he came out, Paracelsus gave him a bag of gold coins. Although only one bag, it was more than 200 pieces. It was enough for him to spend a while.
As soon as he looked up, he had already walked to the door of a shop. When he looked up, the sign read: Uncle Hans Alchemy Store. Ge Zheng was overjoyed and hurried in: "Boss, do you have black sap nine-seed grass, cracked teeth fish and dragon eyes, rhino-headed crazy snake and snake gallbladder?"
Behind the counter was a tall and thin old man. Ge Zheng was full of energy and his voice was loud. When the old man heard this, he was so scared that he walked out of the counter and pushed Ge Zheng out: "Sir, you should go to the big city on the mainland to take a look. This is just Wangshan City. That legendary alchemy material cannot appear in such a small city."
Ge Zheng was disappointed, but he was not giving up. He turned around and asked, "How much do these materials cost?" When the old Hans heard his question, he immediately understood that this person was quite angry and was actually an alchemy rookie. He couldn't help but look at him with contempt: "How much? Humph, any material costs tens of thousands of magic crystal coins per gram!"
"..." Ge Zheng stuck out his tongue, exchanged one magic crystal coin for one hundred gold coins, one gold coin for one hundred silver coins, and one silver coin for one hundred copper coins. Ten thousand magic crystal coin is equivalent to one million gold coins, and this can only be bought one gram. If you want to make up the amount of money that Doudou consumes on that day, it is probably not enough to sell a small principality.
Ge Zheng was a little depressed. Not to mention whether these materials could be bought, even if they could be purchased, he could not afford them now.
Make money! The first priority now is to make money! Ge Zheng never had any worries about money. Now he suddenly needs such a large sum of money, and he doesn't know what to do. Parachelussus has left the tassel mountains and I don't know where to go. Besides, even if he can find him, would he still ask him for money? Making money is just a goal, but he has no choice but to make money.
At this moment, someone rushed in at the door of the store and shouted: "Uncle Hans, come and help me see how to do this question." A brightly dressed brunette boy ran in quickly with a piece of paper in his hand. When the owner of Hans looked at the paper, he smiled bitterly: "Master Bomos, don't read it. You are not the first person to ask me this question. I can only tell you that I am powerless. If you can ask the seventh-level alchemist in the city lord's mansion to take action, maybe there is still hope..."
Master Bomos thought to himself, if I could ask that person to take action, would I still have to come to you?
"Uncle Hans, please help me." Master Bomos became polite. Old Hans took the paper, and the question was still the same: "How to make the Knight's sword have dual attributes - this is a very profound alchemy problem. Sorry, Master Bomos, I'm really powerless. As I said just now, unless you can ask the master in the lord's mansion to take action, no one in Wangshan City can answer this question."
Master Bomos was disappointed and forgot to thank Uncle Hans and left listlessly.
Ge Zheng watched from the side, and only then said, "How much reward can you get if you answer this question?" Bomos was happy and looked at Ge Zheng who had been standing by. Ge Zheng wiped his badge of the sixth level alchemist at the right time. Bomos was jealous of the sixth level alchemist. The sixth level alchemist was only one level lower than the adult in the city lord's mansion. He ignited hope in his heart and quickly performed a standard aristocratic gift: "Alchemist who respects gold, if you can help me solve this question, I am willing to pay you two hundred gold coins as a reward."
Ge Zheng compared "two hundred" with "one million" in his heart and sighed secretly: It's really small. But mosquito legs are also a piece of meat, which is better than nothing.
"The deal is completed, but the materials are provided by you." Ge Zheng said. "No problem!"
Bomos's father was a famous merchant in the city and he also served as a small official under the command of the city lord. His family is big and his business is far from comparable to a small shop owner like Old Hans.
