() "Brother Zhang, is there anything special about this sword? Why do you have a complicated expression when you look at it?" Qin Xiaobai suppressed the excitement in his heart and pretended to ask casually on the surface.
He needs to know the significance of this knife to Blacksmith Zhang and whether Blacksmith Zhang knows the value of this knife, so that he can take the right medicine.
"I have always dreamed of working as a blacksmith in Wuwei City, the seat of Wuwei County. The iron-making industry there is prosperous and master blacksmiths gather there. It is a holy place in my heart."
"However, the lowest standard for blacksmiths is a fifth-level blacksmith. I only have a fourth-level blacksmith, so I can't go there."
"If you want to rise to the fifth level, you can only make a weapon that can reach the bronze level. For this purpose, I have been preparing for several years to refine thousands of kilograms of steel to extract its essence. I just started work today."
"This sword was clearly in shape at the last moment, but for some unknown reason, it suddenly changed into this shape, with only one-tenth of its attributes left."
"Hey..." Blacksmith Zhang lamented as he spoke. Touching the hundred-refined steel knife, he felt even more depressed.
He tried hard to recall every detail of making the knife, and there was nothing wrong with it, and it was even more impossible to make mistakes in the design.
If something really went wrong, it would be easy to say that he would have to start all over again. He was afraid that this kind of failure that could not find fault would make him very depressed now.
Qin Xiaobai felt happy after hearing this. It seems that the blacksmith thought that he had failed to cast this piece, so there was a way out.
So he pretended to comfort him for a few words, and then said: "Brother Zhang, since this knife is a failed product, and we can't find out where the mistakes were made. And little brother, I happen to be short of a weapon that is suitable for my hand. I can't afford heavy weapons."
, the light weapon is a little lacking, otherwise you can sell this knife to me, otherwise I will save you from looking at the thing and thinking about it, and then you will be depressed again."
Hearing what he said made sense, Zhang Tiejiang nodded involuntarily. However, he thought that everyone was unprofitable and could not afford to go early, so he raised his head and looked at Qin Xiaobai carefully, trying to see through his mind.
Qin Xiaobai neither dodge nor look at him, trying to adjust himself to the most natural and relaxed state, just like having a normal conversation with someone.
"Okay, I can sell it to you, but the price will definitely not be too low, but compared to its cost, it is already a drop in the bucket, seventy cents." Zhang Tiejiang stared at Qin Xiaobai for a long time, unable to see any flaws.
So he changed hands and tested the price. The price of a heavy weapon was 85%, but the attributes were only half of the heavy weapon. If Qin Xiaobai still wanted to buy it, there would be a problem.
After all, Qin Xiaobai is not a god, and it is impossible to calculate every step. His desire to quickly pick up the leaks makes him think that this is Zhang Tiejiang's heartache for the capital, and he just wants to get back a little bit.
However, he only had forty coins with him now. He was not sure that the dealer would cut the price by thirty coins, so he turned around and left, got on the carriage, and wanted to go to the market to see if he could take it out.
For thirty coins, I quickly bought the Bailian fine steel knife, so I can feel at ease.
This action was different in the eyes of Blacksmith Zhang. He thought Qin Xiaobai disliked the high price and didn't want to buy it, so he quickly grabbed Qin Xiaobai and said: "Forty coins, just forty coins, this is mine."
The price is low.”
In fact, Blacksmith Zhang's low price is twenty-five cents, which is twice the price of light weapons. The attributes of a hundred-refined fine steel knife are only 1.5 times that of light weapons. At most, the durability is higher and the sharpness is a bit sharper. This price is considered
It's reasonable.
Qin Xiaobai was stunned when he heard this, but then he realized that Zhang Tiejiang was testing him just now. He was very dangerous and almost failed. He secretly told himself that he must not let his mentality affect his judgment in future actions.
To be on the safe side, Qin Xiaobai suppressed his desire to buy it immediately, pretended to be a dealer, bargained with Blacksmith Zhang for several minutes, and finally bought it for thirty yuan.
Come down.
After Qin Xiaobai took the hundred-refined fine steel knife, he threw it into the car casually. He said goodbye to Blacksmith Zhang and asked the driver to drive the four-horse carriage to the next stop, the medicine shop.
After seeing the four carriages gradually moving away from the blacksmith shop, Qin Xiaobai, who had been sitting upright, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly picked up the hundred-refined steel knife and looked at it carefully.
Although the hundred-refined fine steel sword was still black and ugly, Qin Xiaobai became more and more pleased with it.
This is a bronze-level weapon. Even if it is placed on the world map, it cannot be easily obtained.
There are not many NPC blacksmiths, and those who have entered the fifth level are even rarer. According to Qin Xiaobai's estimation, the price of such a bronze-level five-star knife in the NPC store on the world map will never be less than a thousand coins.
.
He bought it for only 30 gold, which was a huge bargain. The only pity was that he had to leave the novice village to release the seal. Otherwise, his combat power could be directly improved by five levels.
The drug store is located in the south of the village, close to the village gate and the melon shop. Before Qin Xiaobai arrived at the drug store, he first went to the pawn shop also located in the south of the village.
All the acres of land allocated in the village were pawned to the pawnshop in exchange for copper coins.
Originally, there was plenty of land in the village, and every household basically had several acres of farmland, so the land was not valuable. The recent surge in foreigners made the pawnshop owner see business opportunities.
The pawnshop owner thought that the arrival of these strangers would inevitably lead to a shortage of land. He could make a lot of money just by buying Qin Xiaobai's land and building houses.
So Qin Xiaobai was given a higher price, four hundred coins, with only one condition, which was to make him die.
Qin Xiaobai will not stay in Xinshou Village for too long. This is just a transitional place for him. It is useless for Qin Xiaobai to ask for this land. Naturally, he will not refuse. However, the price is far beyond his expectations, so Qin Xiaobai
His heart was pounding.
So the two hit it off immediately, and the transaction was completed extremely smoothly.
Seeing that the cloth pocket around his waist was bulging again, Qin Xiaobai finally felt at ease, and then he got on the carriage and went to the drug store.
Pharmacies produce a wide variety of products, most of which treat illnesses, but few have therapeutic effects on trauma.
That’s why the Agni Fire Alliance bought up all the gold sore medicine that was in short supply.
The effect of gold sore medicine is similar to that of meat, but there are differences. The former focuses on stopping bleeding, while the latter focuses on replenishing blood.
Originally, the Fire Alliance wanted to attack the Wind Wolf, and replenishing blood was the best choice. However, meat was too expensive. One pound of meat was enough to buy a small weapon, so they chose to buy the golden sore medicine.
The medicines in the drugstore, except for the golden sore medicine, which has a certain market among players, are not very popular with players, because no player has yet fallen ill with a cold...
So Qin Xiaobai came here not to hoard goods, but to find a medicine that could cure King Orion's injuries.
In Qin Xiaobai's memory, there seem to be two boxes of treasures in the drug store, which have been passed down from generation to generation in the pharmacy for hundreds of years. One box is said to be able to drive away all kinds of diseases, called Shihua Yulu Pills, and the other box is said to be able to treat any external injuries.
, called White Jade Intermittent Paste.
The condition for obtaining it is that you need to exchange it for a medicinal material of equal value in order to obtain it.
Wang Orion's injuries are caused by old illnesses inside and new injuries outside that have not yet healed. If he can get these two boxes of medicine, and if the medicine can really work, then he will be able to get the early magical skill Breaking Wounds.
The only thing in Qin Xiaobai's hand that meets the conditions of exchange is King Yu's blood and tendons. One is an excellent medicine for treating external injuries, and the other is an internal medicine that greatly nourishes the body.
Qin Xiaobai was not sure that he could get it, so he entered the drug store with anxiety, found the drug store owner, and proposed an exchange.
The drug store owner was very surprised where Qin Xiaobai learned that there were these two things in the drug store that were said to be the treasures of the store for hundreds of years.
Qin Xiaobai casually found an excuse to excuse it, and then brought the topic to drug exchange.
Compared to Blacksmith Zhang, the drug store owner was much more sincere. After testing King Yu's blood and meridians, he clearly told Qin Xiaobai that although the quality was lacking, quantity could make up for it.
If he is willing to exchange a cart full of blood meridians, the drug store can give him part of the White Jade Intermittent Ointment and Shihua Yulu Pills, ensuring that one person is enough for medical treatment.
Qin Xiaobai naturally agreed, this was enough for him to achieve his goal.
"This trip went extremely smoothly. It is indeed a welfare village!" Qin Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh after coming out of the drug store with two small boxes of medicine.
Qin Xiaobai got on the four-horse carriage and was about to ask the driver to drive the carriage to the last destination, the butcher shop.
Unexpectedly, I saw a large group of players gathered at the entrance of the village.
I couldn't help but look closely and found that most of the names of those players were prefixed with "Fire".
"Is the Fire Alliance preparing to attack the Wind Wolf?" Qin Xiaobai's heart moved and he secretly thought something was wrong.
If it were in the past, Qin Xiaobai would naturally enjoy seeing the mutual damage between players and wild monsters.
But now I am not happy, because once the player provokes the wind wolf and attracts more wolves to block the door, the player will not be able to get out.
All the goods he hoarded were in vain.
If those shops manufacture goods every day and accumulate goods, they will indirectly suffer huge losses, and they will be unable to accumulate funds and occupy a sufficient share to control the market.
On the contrary, if players are allowed to go out to kill monsters now, resulting in a shortage of strategic goods and resources, Qin Xiaobai will make a fortune, and then hoard and resell to control the market.
He can use strategic resources to divide and win over the player group, and even control the rhythm of player upgrades to ensure his own safety and interests to the greatest extent.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiaobai felt anxious, but he still kept calm in his mind, thinking quickly, and finally said to the coachman: "Change the destination and go to the administrative hall."
