Chapter 11 Marlboro
Knowing that refining magic weapons is also a job that burns money, at least it requires a certain amount of capital. Xia Jiang can't help but be embarrassed. His nine princes are actually so poor.
At this time of embarrassment, Xianzhu's voice sounded on one side, and she had already settled the account.
"A total of three third-grade and seventy second-grade crystals." Xianzhu said and handed the bill to Xia Jiang.
Xia Jiang knows that the world's coins are a kind of crystal, a common basic refinery material, which can be used not only as currency, but also be used to refine magic weapons.
Crystals are of the same grade as those of magic weapons. Ordinary ones are divided into ten grades, and each grade is one hundred advanced. That is to say, a two-grade crystal is equal to a hundred first-class crystals. A little special about this is that any super-grade crystal is equivalent to a higher-grade crystal, such as a super-class crystal, which is equivalent to the value of a quasi-second-grade crystal.
The magic weapon is the same.
After receiving the bill, Xia Jiang looked at it casually, handed it to Xianzhu and said, "Oi, you go and put one of those people back and give this to him. Just say what I mean, and ask the third prince to send someone to send the compensation as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Xianzhu seemed to look at Xia Jiang with some disbelief. She knew that this kind of thing was not a joke, which was equivalent to publicly tearing her face with the third prince. It was expected that the ninth prince would not know this kind of thing, but under observation, she saw that Xia Jiang did not hesitate at all.
After ordering to go out, Xia Jiang immediately motioned to go out. Now he must quickly get himself a magic weapon that is easy to practice and quickly improve his cultivation.
Like this country, not only the territory of his nine royal palaces is huge, but also the whole palace is huge. It is divided into the inner palace and the outer palace. The inner palace is the exclusive area of his father, and the outer palace is the territory of their princesses.
Originally, the whole inner and outer palace was equivalent to a metropolis, and all kinds of materials for cultivation were available, but Xia Jiang did not patronize it. He would rather spend more time going out.
He is going out to see the world.
Two horses quickly flew out of the territory of the Nine Kings.
In about half an hour, Xia Jiang completely left the territory of the palace and entered a loose jungle. This is the safety buffer of the palace territory, which is specially set up to prevent the invasion of foreign enemies.
Leaving the jungle area, with the help of the high terrain, Xia Jiang immediately saw countless towering castles, streets and figures, which were more lively and lively than the palace.
In his memory, one of the places he often goes to is the Marlboro Pavilion.
Wanbao Pavilion is the most extensive magic weapon market in the whole Xia country, or more accurately, it is also a trading platform that not only sells magic weapons, but also makes acquisitions, or regularly opens auction venues.
Xia Jiang is not familiar with the auction. For him, as long as the magic weapon is enough, the water flows for a long time, and the things that appear at the auction are not what he can expect.
Not to mention now, he just came here to buy some low-level materials.
Entering it, Xia Jiang immediately saw the maze-like architectural pattern. Because of privacy, the internal structure of the Marlboro Pavilion is composed of many small compartments, and each transaction is carried out in a compartment.
However, the compartment also distinguishes the level. The entrance of the outer compartment is the lowest-level trading service, which is also the place he often visits.
Xia Jiang was not noticeable and quickly entered an open entrance, which was a separate counter, and a short and fat middle-aged man immediately greeted and inquired.
handed the prepared materials to the other party, and Xia Jiang began to observe here carefully. I found that there are as many as 10,000 magic weapons and materials displayed in just one counter, and it is only low-end, and the combined value is already amazing. If it is all low-end counters, plus high-end counters, and even warehouses?
Xia Jiang used to think that he didn't know who was the owner of the Wanbao Pavilion. I'm afraid that this person had more wealth than their palace. His father was really rich.
In this world of magic weapons, who doesn't want to have endless wealth, so I don't know how many people want to have a relationship with the owner of this Wanbao Pavilion, but they are all delusional. They don't even know who the other party is. The other party seems to be extremely mysterious, and Xia Jiang doesn't know.
Yes, Xia Jiang also wants to know the owner of this Wanbao Pavilion, but he is also daydreaming. He is an almost bottomless waste material like him who doesn't even have the qualification to know each other.
But now it's different. Just after he learned that he could refine magic weapons, he felt that he really had a chance to meet the owner of the Marlboro Pavilion.
It is necessary to meet the latest rich man in the world, which will greatly help him develop his practice in the future!
Thinking about it, the shopkeeper had packed all the materials for him, but quoted a price that surprised him.
Almost at the moment when the price was quoted, the shopkeeper seemed to see Xia Jiang's expression change and immediately said, "Guests, don't be surprised. Most of these materials have already risen in price. You are a regular customer of our store and have given a little discount!"
Listening to the other party's explanation, Xia Jiang would have argued fiercely before, but now he is calm and only immediately paid almost all the crystals on his body, and then turned away.
"What the hell is this? These inferior materials are so expensive, four or five times more expensive than before!"
Sure enough, as soon as he came out, Xia Jiang heard someone complaining.
"That's right, just because those damn neighboring countries are restless and fight all year round, we can't buy magic weapons, otherwise even if the price rises, it will be double at most."
Although Xia Jiang rarely goes out, he also knows that the surrounding small countries are fighting and spares no effort to acquire magic weapon materials from some small countries, including their Xia, which is also the reason for the unreasonable price increase of their magic weapons.
In this world, the struggle between people depends on their own strength, but in the end, they can't escape the assistance of magic weapons, and the fight between countries is even more so. The competition is consumption. Whoever has more soldiers and has enough magic weapons is the boss.
If they go to war with Xia each other one day, they also have to ensure that there are enough troops and magic weapons, otherwise there will be an easy risk of subjugation of the country, and the struggle in this world has always been extremely fierce.
Leaving the Marlboro Pavilion, Xia Jiang turned to a blacksmith's shop not far away.
Although it is just a blacksmith's shop, it also has a "treasure" signboard. It is a store under the Marlboro Pavilion, and there are also some scattered comprehensive stores around it, all of which belong to Marlboro Pavilion.
But even if the iron shop is under the name of Wanbao Pavilion, it has nothing to do with magic weapons. It sells only some civilian tools, such as iron sickle, hammer, iron sword, axe, etc., these things, even low-level hunters will not use.
But there is nothing he can do. Xia Jiang is now poor. He can barely afford to buy the basic materials for refining magic weapons, but he can't afford the main materials, even if it is just a broken sword.
You know, a quasi-first-class remnant, at least hundreds of first-class crystals, sell a little better, that is, a second-class crystal. Now he only has a pile of first-class crystals in his hand, which is worth today's surrounding wars, so the price is even higher, so don't even think about it.
However, although this main material is expensive, it also has its own reason, because when it is in the hands of the refiner, it can become a quasi-one or a magic weapon in a blink of an eye, and the price can be increased by about ten times.
In this world, the price of defective products and finished products is at least ten times different, which is common sense.
This is also the reason why Xia Jiang had to be excited to hear that he could become a refiner.
When he arrived at the blacksmith's shop, Xia Jiang's eyes kept searching and quickly locked on a high hanging iron. It was a long knife, but at first glance it looked like a sword.
"Old man, can you help me improve this knife and open the other side..." Xia Jiang pointed to the knife.
There are only two people in the blacksmith's shop, an old man and a young apprentice, wearing a coat, burning iron.
Although it was a small business, the old man had a good attitude. He immediately put down the appliance, looked at the knife pointed by Xia Jiang, and immediately said, "Do you want to start on both sides? It's not good to cut things like that, right? The old man is worthy of being an old blacksmith, and he immediately knew the pros and cons.
Xia Jiang didn't care and just nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. Cut down trees, practice swords, and kill two birds with one stone!" He played a little cleverly to make people think that it was for children, so that people would not suspect that he used it himself. That's too shameful.
As soon as he heard this, he understood that he knew that he was going to make a sword, but he suddenly showed his yellow teeth and smiled, "So that's it. I still have a few iron swords here, but they are a little bigger. I don't know if the guest will like it!"
said something that made Xia Jiang a little embarrassed. He couldn't help looking inside. Sure enough, several iron swords were left aside, but they were slightly worse.
"If it is used for children, it will be a little bigger. If the guest thinks it's okay, the old man will forge it immediately?" The old man said and picked out one of them.
Xia Jiang looked at it and nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's not big. Let's forge all those pieces. I want them all!"
Hearing Xia Jiang so cheerfully, the old man immediately called his apprentice. The two began to bow left and right, and immediately forged a few big iron swords that were regarded as scrap iron.
The master and apprentice banged the iron, but Xia Jiang did not leave, but watched it seriously for nearly an hour, because during this watch, the movement of waving the hammer and the collision of power made his blood active.
For nearly an hour, the efforts of the two of them finally released several very popular iron swords, but what Xia Jiang didn't expect was that there were a total of four iron swords, and the old man only needed 21 crystals.
Listening to the old man's asking price and looking at the sweat of the other party, Xia Jiang became more aware of the horror of the refiner. Compared with the old ironsmith's value, it was simply heaven and underground!
gave all the remaining crystals to the old uncle, and Xia Jiang did not explain much and immediately returned.
Leaving the Wanbao Pavilion and leaving the street, the Xiajiang River galloped, jumped over a heavy hillside, a piece of jungle, returned to the territory of the palace, and finally stopped in front of the Nine Palace.
Xia Jiang hardly stopped and immediately entered his secret cultivation site and began his next secret cultivation - refining equipment.
