Qunxing Tower is the most powerful 'merchant building' in the seven states of the Central Plains. It has the most treasures and is the fairest in buying and selling.
Even the ‘bank notes’ issued by it can circulate around the world and be recognized by all parties.
One can imagine how terrifying the forces hidden behind it are.
"Absolutely fair? There is no absolute in this world. The so-called absolute confidentiality is just because the price is not high enough. I was in the Qunxing Building in Licheng when Yi Gu entered to buy valuables again and again, and I was targeted." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly: "I was forced to do so.
, I haven’t even bought the items needed for cultivation yet.”
Qunxing Buildings are spread all over the world and are divided into four levels: headquarters, state-level branch buildings, prefectural-level branch buildings, and county-level branch buildings.
Naturally, the higher the level, the safer it is.
For example, in county-level sub-buildings, if you purchase items worth thousands of taels at a time, you will be regarded as a key customer.
But in separate buildings at the prefectural level? The transaction volume is not that big.
After all, there are many masters and big families in the entire Nanmeng Mansion, and large transactions involving tens of thousands of taels of silver often occur.
Huge transactions exceeding one hundred thousand taels are not too rare.
This is also the reason why Wu Yuan wants to come to Nanmeng City.
The resources, treasures, and intelligence information gathered here are more than ten times that of Li City, and it is much easier to hide your identity.
After the transformation of Yi Gu, Wu Yuan looked like a burly man at first glance.
Walked into this government-level Qunxing Tower.
"Sir, please come inside." Naturally, an attendant came out to receive you.
Wu Yuan glanced across.
The prefecture-level Qunxing Building is not even a little bit better than the county-level Qunxing Building. The area occupied by a single floor is several times larger.
The decoration is luxurious, and the guests coming and going are even more wealthy, and there are many heroes dressed up and showing great strength.
Even the patrolling guards are much stronger than those of Licheng Qunxing Tower.
"I want to go to the third floor." Wu Yuan said coldly.
His voice is magnetic and very different from his own.
For a master of his level who is comparable to a great master, Yi Gu and Yi Sheng are just trivial matters.
"Okay, sir, come with me," the attendant said, without even asking to verify his strength and identity.
soon.
Wu Yuan climbed up to the third floor and was greeted by a graceful maid who was charming but not vulgar, with a smile on her face that made people feel good about him.
"As expected of Qunxing Tower." Wu Yuan praised in his heart.
The maids on the third floor alone are a level higher than those in the Licheng Qunxing Building, and training them would probably cost a lot of money.
Enter the single reception room.
"Sir, I wonder what you want to buy when you come to our Qunxing Tower?" There was already a man in black robes who looked about thirty years old waiting for him.
His voice was gentle, neither humble nor overbearing.
"I want some hidden weapons and flying knives, both fourth and fifth grade, just small ones." Wu Yuan got straight to the point.
Wu Yuan had purchased Qunxinglou's "standard flying knives" before, and they were quite easy to use. However, after several battles, many of the flying knives could not be recovered, and some were damaged after being broken through armor.
Of course I need to replace it with a new batch!
"Fourth-grade flying knives? Sir, flying knives are hidden weapons. They focus on stealth and surprise. The material requirements are not that high. Generally, fifth-grade flying knives can threaten the first-class masters." The man in black robe couldn't help but remind him.
road.
"When did Qunxing Tower start asking for customer information?" Wu Yuan's voice became colder, and an invisible energy came out: "How to use it is my business, you just tell me whether to sell it or not?"
In an instant, the man in black robe felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast, and he could not help but feel a chill all over his body. He immediately understood that he had said the wrong thing, and continued: "I am talking too much, I wonder how much your guest needs?"
"Price." Wu Yuan's voice returned to calmness.
"A fifth-grade flying knife handles twenty taels, and a fourth-grade flying knife handles one hundred and fifty taels." The man in black robe said quickly.
"For the fifth grade, I want twenty handles, and for the fourth rank, I want ten handles." Wu Yuan said calmly.
Although he purchased a small flying knife, it is destined to not be too small if it wants to pass through heavy armor. The weight is secondary. With Wu Yuan's current strength, it is easy to carry a weight of several thousand kilograms and walk long distances.
The key is space!
Thirty flying knives were the maximum number that Wu Yuan could hide without affecting his own fighting and without being noticed by others while moving.
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to pick it up," the man in black robe said.
"There's no rush." Wu Yuan said calmly: "I also need a piece of fourth-grade soft armor for my body. Remember, it's soft armor that won't affect my flexibility."
"Fourth grade soft armor?" The man in black robe's eyes lit up.
This is big business!
For example, flying knives, even if they are grade four sharp weapons, have too few usable materials.
And as a concealed weapon, the price cannot be very high.
The price is too high? Customers will definitely go to other weapons stores to buy.
But soft armor is different.
It uses a lot of materials and requires equally high craftsmanship, so the price naturally goes up. It is common for a good fourth-grade soft armor to sell for tens of thousands of taels of silver.
"Your Majesty, since different people have different body types, most armors are custom-made," the man in black robe said.
"No need, I want the finished product." Wu Yuan said calmly.
custom made?
When you are in the bone-changing state, your body shape is obviously different from your normal body shape, so it is impossible to customize it.
"Then I'll ask the guest officer to follow me to the 'Armory' and try them on one by one to see which one suits you best," the man in black robe said.
"Okay." Wu Yuan said casually.
He wasn't worried about any tricks played by Qunxinglou.
The two of them went directly to the fourth floor through the small door behind the reception room.
Came to a secret room.
"Sir, the weapons room leads to different rooms. Occasionally, you will meet other guests to choose weapons. If you need to keep it secret, you can wear a mask." The man in black robe pointed to the wall.
There are a lot of masks hanging on it, all with green faces and fangs.
Only one eye is exposed on the mask.
"Yeah." Wu Yuan nodded, took off a mask and put it on.
Push door.
A huge arsenal appeared in front of Wu Yuan, including knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, shields, bows... A large number of weapons appeared in front of Wu Yuan.
Every piece is a high-quality tool!
..."Your Majesty." The man in black robe looked at the finished piece of soft armor that Wu Yuan selected after trying on more than ten pieces, and couldn't help but remind him: "Although this piece of soft armor is relatively cheap, it doesn't seem to be very good.
suits you."
The two guests standing not far away couldn't help but look over when they heard this. They really didn't fit well.
"Huh?" Wu Yuan glanced coldly.
"Okay, whatever you say will be whatever you say." The man in black robe shut up, quickly wrapped the soft armor, and took Wu Yuan downstairs.
Go back to the reception room again and sit down.
"Sir, this piece of soft armor costs 6,300 taels of silver, plus the flying knife costs 1,900 taels of silver, for a total of 8,200 taels of silver." The man in black robe calculated it, and he looked forward to it.
A one-time transaction of nearly 10,000 taels of silver is rare in the Qunxing Building at the prefectural level.
"Not urgent!"
Wu Yuan touched the table with his fingertips and said calmly: "I also want some 'Bone Forging Pill', the quantity is very large."
"Bone Forging Pill?" The man in black robe's eyes lit up: "It's a big amount? How much?"
The Bone Forging Pill is more advanced than the Body Tempering Pill, and its efficacy is more amazing. It is generally aimed at advanced masters, and the price is correspondingly higher.
A high-quality bone forging pill costs one hundred taels of silver!
A medium-grade bone forging pill costs twenty taels of silver.
"One thousand pieces, medium quality." Wu Yuan said softly.
"A thousand?" The man in black robe was breathing rapidly.
It's a big business. These pills alone cost 20,000 taels of silver, and the weapons and armor are nearly 30,000 taels.
Since the beginning of the new year, he has never done such a large amount of business.
The maid on the side was also frightened.
She also didn't expect that the strange guest she received casually would be such a high-profile guest.
"In addition, I also need some information." Wu Yuan said casually, his eyes scanning the maid behind him.
How sensible was that maid? She immediately lowered her head and left the reception room.
"Sir, please speak." The man in black robe said.
"I want to know detailed information about the three major dark organizations, Jiulong Mountain, Qixing Tower, and Jiusha Mansion." Wu Yuan said calmly.
"No problem." The man in black robe smiled.
"Don't try to fool me with a brief description of their deeds and historical inheritance." Wu Yuan said calmly: "What I want is the location, contact information, strength of the person in charge, and internal information of each stronghold of these three major forces in Nanmeng Mansion.
Organizational structure and other information.”
"The price is easy to negotiate." Wu Yuan looked directly at the man in black robe.
The face of the man in black robe changed slightly, but he immediately calmed down: "Your Majesty, our Qunxing Tower abides by the rules of Hengyun Sect and it is impossible to spy on these things..."
call!
Wu Yuan stood up directly: "Come on, you don't want to do business in Qunxing Tower, so I will waste more time and slowly collect weapons and intelligence."
Follow the rules of Hengyun Sect? Only ghosts believe it!
The man in black robe suddenly became anxious.
He could see that Wu Yuan was not joking. Not only did he not do intelligence business, he also stopped talking about the tens of thousands of taels of business just now.
"My guest, please don't leave. Please sit down first. I have something to talk about." The man in black robe continued.
"What? Do you have any information?" Wu Yuan stopped, turned around, and said coldly: "I'm not patient enough. If you try to fool me again, you'll never have a chance again."
"Guest officer."
"I'll tell you the truth too." The man in black robe gritted his teeth and said: "The senior officials in the building may know the detailed information of these dark organizations, but they will not be sold easily. I must apply. Even if the senior officials agree, they must be verified.
Guest officer status.”
Wu Yuan nodded slightly: "I know, but I won't verify my identity."
"Yes." The man in black robe nodded: "The only thing I have the authority to do is to add some speculation about the 'stronghold' and general organizational structure of these dark organizations into the normal intelligence."
The man in black robe emphasized the word 'speculation' very seriously.
Wu Yuan naturally understood what the other party meant.
He pondered for a while.
"Okay." Wu Yuan spit out one word.
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I have sorted out the relevant information and will submit it to you. Your Majesty, you can only read it in my Qunxing Tower." The man in black robe said: "The information from the three companies totals one thousand taels of silver."
"No problem." Wu Yuan nodded.
Confidential information cannot be taken out of the store directly. This is the consistent rule of Qunxing Tower.
How much the guest can remember depends on the guest's ability.
Is one thousand taels of silver expensive? Expensive!
But since ancient times, knowledge and information have been extremely expensive.
Wu Yuan was not kept waiting for too long.
The man in black robe presented several thin books and more than ten separate pages, which Wu Yuan began to read without ceremony.
Since opening the Shangdantian Palace, the spirit has continued to grow.
Although it has no other effect, in terms of memory alone, Wu Yuan can completely achieve photographic memory.
Less than half an hour.
Wu Yuan put down the last piece of information, and he had a preliminary understanding of the major dark organizations such as Jiulong Mountain, Jiusha Mansion, and Qixing Tower.
The prototype of a plan gradually emerged in his mind.
"Pack the weapons and bone forging pills for me."
Wu Yuan took out a sufficient number of banknotes and put them on the table, and then said casually: "By the way, please bring me the latest issue of the Earth Ranking, Human Ranking, and Genius Ranking issued by your Qunxing Building."
The man in black robe looked at the large stack of banknotes, his eyes lit up, and he complimented with a smile: "A few magazines, a small matter."
