A burly figure carrying a large bundle suddenly appeared in the "Dragon Fire Blade" blacksmith shop, casting a large shadow that even directly enveloped the owner of the shop, the dwarf blacksmith master Roda Khan.
Roda Khan looked indifferent. He raised his eyelids and glanced sideways at Liu Yifei, and said listlessly: "What? Haven't you been bored outside the city? How come you have time to hang out with me today?"
Liu Yifei put the big bag behind him on the counter, and there was a loud clanging sound of metal. He didn't even need to open it to look. Just by hearing the sound, Luo Dahan was sure that there were definitely several high-quality sword weapons in the bag.
In the past, the dwarf shopkeeper who loved to earn gold coins would have turned away from all kinds of bad ideas of exploitation, but today, even if he faced the golden glitter that came to his door, he still couldn't arouse much interest.
As for the reason...of course it's because the cutie with more gold coins is about to flutter his wings and fly away before he sees it!
"Didn't I receive news that a new round of winter recruit training will be held in the city soon? So I thought I would clear this month's accounts first, and then I will go directly to the city's recruitment office to report~
"
really……
Upon hearing Liu Yifei's words, the dwarf shop owner's face became even more disgusting.
Pursing his lips, he finally couldn't help but said: "Seriously, boy Geralt, what is it about the military camp that attracts you so much? You have a talent that is rare among human blacksmiths. I am not the same person in this regard.
You know, I've always been known to have a very good eye for people!
You have such a good talent, why bother to suffer the hardships of those big-headed soldiers? If you continue to work with me for a few years, if you are willing, you can even become my disciple... Of course, it is not the kind of cheap job where you can make money by helping me work.
Disciple, but a formal disciple accepted by our dwarves in the name of our clan!
I swear, I am even willing to hand over my best skills to you! Listen to me and don’t become a soldier, right? Just follow me, I guarantee it won’t take ten years... No, five years! Within five years, you
He must be the famous human blacksmith master in Mingyue City!
And you are still so young! You are only about twenty years old this year, right? A twenty-five-year-old human blacksmith master... You will definitely be one of the most famous blacksmith masters in the Kingdom of Erathia in the future!"
It's just that although Luo Dahan's cake was big and fragrant, Liu Yifei didn't accept his words at all~
It's not that he doubts that the other party will lie to him, or that he doesn't care about the title of the famous blacksmith master in the Kingdom of Erathia, but he clearly knows the progress of history and knows that Erathia will not have another five years at all.
Moreover, in the face of the coming unprecedented chaos, the name of a genius master blacksmith is of no use at all~ He might even become the target of some careerists!
In comparison, it is better to join the army as early as possible and keep climbing up. Even if you can become a middle-level commander, there will be a lot more room for trouble in the future.
Facing the dwarf's sincere suggestion, Liu Yifei just smiled and looked around the store, then whispered with a smirk on his face: "The first few batches of swords sold well, right?"
Luo Dahan was stunned and pursed his lips, but did not deny Liu Yifei's guess.
It’s true that dwarves are hot-tempered and stubborn, but if you treat them as fools, you’d be a real idiot~
What's more, being able to become the owner of a huge blacksmith shop in Mingyue City?
Do you really think that people like the blacksmiths in the village make a living by repairing farm tools?
Starting from a blacksmith at the town level, he is an independent arms dealer producing small workshops! And when he reaches the level of Loda Khan, he is a large arms dealer at the local level! There may be shadows of the elves and dwarves behind him.
!
That's not just something that can be accomplished with the title of Dwarf Master, it also requires a certain level of business and political acumen.
Even the sincere thoughts and suggestions actually contain the instinctive calculation of a businessman: what Roda Khan has been emphasizing is not that Liu Yifei should give up being a soldier and choose to become a blacksmith, but that he should "follow him" and become a blacksmith, or even
Become your teacher directly!
The reason why we value Liu Yifei so much is naturally because of his amazing strength!
Note that what is mentioned here is not some illusory potential, but the real strength that has been thoroughly developed and can actually earn profits!
The one-handed swords Liu Yifei forges for the dwarves on a monthly basis are only high-quality "ordinary goods", but these ordinary goods are compared to masters of their level.
For ordinary blacksmiths, as long as the materials are good or they are careful enough, they have the opportunity to create high-quality equipment, but the cost-benefit ratio may not be satisfactory.
But what about this brawny boy in front of me?
He can actually use the most common materials to steadily produce a large number of high-quality armaments and weapons like an assembly line... It can be said that as long as this kid has connections, he can immediately open a shop in the city. As long as the profit is large enough, the army will be very powerful.
Will be working directly with him soon...
But now he has to miss such a good money-making machine... Loda Khan means a genius disciple! How can this make him, a master blacksmith, not feel pain?
Oh~ Even the glittering little cuties can't make up for this kind of pain... at least not with the little cuties worth less than 3,000 pieces!
Ignoring the dejected look on the dwarf's face after his treasury was emptied, Liu Yifei took out the one-handed swords from the bag one by one and stacked them on the counter.
To Loda Khan's surprise, there were not ten, but seventeen!
"What are you..."
"Master~ Today I am here. In addition to settling the account with you, I also have a merciless request!
These ten swords are what you deserve according to our previous agreement~
And these seven, together with the materials you were going to give me in the next few days, I would like to use them in exchange for some things I need from your inventory materials. At the same time, if you don't mind, I will also
I would like to lend you the best forging furnace."
"Wait! Are you... planning to create a handy guy for yourself? Just to join the army?"
"It's not just to join the army, but when you become a soldier, you will have to go into battle to kill the enemy. If you have a powerful weapon to defend yourself, do you think it is more likely that I will come back alive?"
Luoda Khan seemed to have come back to his senses at this time, and suddenly stared at Liu Yifei with an extremely serious look.
"What do you want?"
Liu Yifei had been thinking about this matter for a long time. He already had a plan in mind and directly reported what he needed, even stating clearly how much he needed.
And an expert like Roda Khan knew right away that this guy was planning to forge a weapon that was at least sophisticated!
This guy can actually make this... sophisticated equipment???
