A strange sneer appeared on Qiu Gongfeng's lips, "I'm just making a guess. Do you know why I offered him such a high price?"
Miss Fan suddenly understood: "Oh, you want to take a long-term view to catch the big fish. Give him a very high price first, so that if the old man really has General Duobao's treasure in his hands, he will take it and continue trading in the future.
of.".
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean." Qiu Gongfeng stopped and thought for a moment, then asked Miss Fan: "Your appraiser's observation and memory are very strong, can you draw a portrait of the old guy just now?
"
Miss Fan nodded: "It should be no problem, but why do you want this portrait?"
"I'm going to send my subordinates to take this portrait to our eyeliners around Ghost Face Cliff to inquire and see if any of them have seen the old guy."
After saying that, Qiu Gongfeng put the knife in Miss Fan's hand: "Please study this knife carefully and see what kind of material it is made of? There may be a so-called 'immortal spiritual energy machine' in it.
, and what kind of attribute thing is it?"
"Yes, I will try my best." Miss Fan took the Burmese steel knife.
Qiu Gongfeng added: "Haha, let me give you a hint: you will ask someone who has reached the late stage of bone forging realm to help you do a test later, and you can let another person who has reached the late stage of body refining realm hold this hand.
Cut him with a knife and see what happens."
"A person in the late stage of body-refining realm uses a seventh-level knife to chop a master in the late-stage bone forging realm," Miss Fan replied without thinking: "It will definitely not hurt him."
"That's not necessarily the case." Qiu Gongfeng continued to smile: "Just follow what I said and give it a try."
Miss Fan nodded, took the Burmese knife and walked to her room at the back.
Qiu Zongfeng turned his head and looked at the trading floor, only to see Lu Zhan standing in front of the row of counters where "miscellaneous goods" were traded, casually flipping through books about martial arts and other techniques.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt a little strange. Looking from a distance, Lu Zhan was tall and straight, with strong muscles and bones. He looked very much like a young man who was not old enough, but his face looked very...
Old man, there is something really weird about this man.
After all, Lu Zhan was too young and lacked experience. He did not feel that the gap between his figure and face would arouse the suspicion of Lao Jianghu.
He walked around in front of the row of counters selling martial arts books, but he couldn't find the martial arts secrets about weapon skills that he wanted to buy.
The books for sale on this counter are all popular, and most of them are suitable for people who practice in the body-refining realm, and there are even fewer books suitable for people who practice in the bone-forging realm. And there are none that are suitable for people who practice in the qi-condensing realm.
It seems that if you want to get good skills and secrets, you have to try your luck in the auction rooms where VIPs trade.
But now Lu Zhan doesn't have the intention to try his luck. What he wants to get now is the second-level elixir. In order to increase the speed of cultivation, he now wants to increase the consumption of the second-level elixir "Peiyuan Dan" from one pill.
To two pills, this means that he needs a large amount of "Pei Yuan Dan".
There are sixty "Peiyuan Pills" in General Duobao's treasure collection. Including the eight pills found on Butler Liu's body, the total is only sixty-eight pills. Now he has eaten forty-eight pills, leaving only
There are only twenty pills, so he must try to get enough "Pui Yuan Dan" to continue to quickly increase his cultivation speed.
So he walked to the counter on the other side of the trading floor where the elixirs were sold.
Standing behind the counter was a young woman with a pretty face but a cold and noble expression.
But when she saw Lu Zhan showing off a platinum VIP card, her eyes immediately sparkled with electricity, and she kept flirting with Lu Zhan: "Excuse me, brother, what do you want to buy?"
The woman asked in the sweetest and sweetest voice: "We have "Yuan Yang Dan", "Yi Qi Dan", "Baoshen Dan" and so on. The varieties are complete and you are guaranteed to be satisfied."
"I would like to know the price of the second-level elixir." Lu Zhan asked.
"Second-level elixir?" The woman tilted her head and said, "The "Puiyuan Pill" costs five thousand taels of silver each, and the "Qi-Consolidating Pill" costs twelve thousand taels of silver."
"What?" Lu Zhan said in surprise: "The price difference between the second-level elixir and the first-level elixir is a hundred times, so amazing."
The woman smiled lightly and shook her head: "Of course. Rare and precious materials are used to refine the second-level elixir. The refining cycle of the second-level elixir is more than ten times longer than that of the first-level elixir, and the price is of course higher.
It’s much better.”
Lu Zhan was thinking in his mind that he had one million taels of silver notes on him. If he spent all of it, he could buy two hundred "Peiyuan Pills", which would last for a while.
Thinking of this, he said to the woman: "Then I will buy two hundred "Peiyuan Pills"."
The woman was still smiling, but what she said made Lu Zhan's heart freeze: "I'm sorry, brother, it's out of stock."
"No goods?" Lu Zhan was startled, "Not even one?"
"Yes, not a single one is left."
"But didn't you just say that the variety is complete and I'm satisfied with it?" Lu Zhan was a little angry: "Why do you say there is not a single one now?"
The woman explained without changing her expression: "The varieties I mentioned are complete. Brother Bao, you are satisfied. There is a premise in this sentence. They all refer to first-level elixirs. Second-level elixirs have always been valuable in the market."
Products that are in short supply without a market will be snapped up by the major wealthy families as soon as they come out. So if you want to buy the second-level elixir from our secret shop, you have to be lucky and encounter the newly refined one that has just been released.
"
Lu Zhan was so disappointed that he had to put away his platinum VIP card angrily. At this moment, a voice came from behind him: "Does this brother want to buy "Peiyuan Dan"?"
Lu Zhan turned around and saw Qiu Zongfeng standing behind him, and nodded: "Yes, it's a pity that you don't have any in stock here, not a single one is left."
The woman saluted Qiu Gongfeng and said, "He wants to buy two hundred pills."
"Oh, two hundred pills." Qiu Gongfeng mused: "This is not a small number. Our secret workshop's shipment volume in half a year is only about two to three hundred pills."
"Ah, such a small amount!" Lu Zhan secretly gasped. It turns out that the second-level elixirs are so cherished. The "Peiyuan Dan" he had in hand were all snatched from others, so he was very concerned about this kind of high-level elixirs.
I don’t have a clear idea of the market conditions of medicines.
Qiu Gongfeng looked at Lu Zhanyan and said: "If brother is really in a hurry, I can consider doing a favor and keep some for you next time we have the goods here, but the amount will not be too much. Don't hold it too much."
Great hope, after all, all the wealthy families and major forces in Yunmeng County are eyeing these second-level elixirs."
"It's so kind, so thank you very much." Lu Zhan nodded and agreed. The quantity might not be much, but having something in stock is always better than having nothing in stock.
"But..." Qiu Gongfeng suddenly changed his tone: "I also have something to ask my brother for help."
"Can I help you?" Lu Zhan was puzzled: "How can I help?"
Qiu Gongfeng chuckled and said, "Just provide our secret workshop with a few more weapons or armors like the ones you sold today."
"It's not that difficult. I still have a few weapons on hand." Lu Zhan agreed without hesitation. He thought he could just grab a few weapons from General Duobao's treasure.
Just come and sell it, after all, I still have a large number of weapons stored in my Qiankun bag that have not been touched.
Qiu Gongfeng specifically warned: "What our secret workshop wants is the kind of weapon you sold to us today, the kind that even a senior appraiser cannot tell the material of. As for the grade of the weapon, my requirements are not the same."
Not too high, just level 4 or above."
"Ah? You want a weapon like this." After hearing his superfluous reminder, Lu Zhan suddenly became alert;
He deliberately touched his head: "This is a bit troublesome." If he uses "Bloodlight Slash" to temper the weapon, it will take a while. The seventh-level Burmese sword in front of him took him a full thirty days.
time.
But now he wants to get "Peiyuan Pill" within twenty days.
"If it embarrasses your Excellency, then forget it." Qiu Gongfeng saw Lu Zhan's eagerness for the second-level elixir, so he retreated in order to make progress and said, "But our deal with the second-level elixir is difficult to guarantee.
.”
Seeing this, Lu Zhan had no choice but to agree: "Okay then, I promise you the secret workshop."
He wanted to find a fourth-level or fifth-level weapon to try when he went back. Although the last time he tried it, it seemed that the weapons of these two levels ended in failure.
However, Lu Zhan felt that the reason for the failure might be that he had just entered the realm of Qi Condensation and had not mastered the degree of heat of "Bloodlight Slash" injected into the weapon.
Now that he has practiced for another thirty or forty days, he feels that his martial arts attainments have improved a lot. In addition, he has already had a successful experience, so he feels that he may be able to refine it with the Blood Light Slash in a short period of time.
Here comes a level 4 to 5 weapon.
Lu Zhan negotiated good terms with Qiu Zongfeng and left the secret workshop.
After returning home, he dug out a fourth-level Hunyuan cooked copper rod from the treasures of General Duobao, and prepared to use the copper rod to inject "Bloodlight Slash" for tempering.
In his opinion, Hunyuan copper rods are thick and round, and are not prone to breakage during the tempering process.
Furthermore, wrought copper has relatively strong toughness and is not as brittle, hard and easy to break as steel knives.
He still followed the successful experience of the previous Burmese steel knife and slowly poured the "Bloodlight Slash" into the cooked copper stick. As the red light on the copper stick became more and more intense, the copper stick itself showed no abnormality.
.
This lasted for two cups of tea, and the copper rod was safe and sound. Lu Zhan knew that the beginning of this tempering was ready, and the rest of the time was to be patient and use "Bloodlight Slash" to repeatedly temper it.
Practice it.
In early spring, the wind is still chilly, but the sun is shining brightly, the willow branches are spitting out fresh green, and there is already a hint of warmth in the air.
Lu Zhan has a strong physique, so he took off his thick winter clothes earlier than others and put on his new early spring clothes. He immediately felt refreshed and his walking seemed much lighter.
That morning, as soon as he stepped into the nursing hall, he was stopped by Tiesong.
Tiesong told him: "The third young master will be back in a while, and we have to make more preparations to welcome him. As usual, these things should be arranged by Butler Liu, but what is strange is that Butler Liu has been in a hurry recently.
After coming back, I haven't seen his figure again, and I don't know where he went. So Elder Yu and I discussed with leader Yao Shier, and our nursing hall first organized a group of about thirty people.
'Guard Group', this 'Guard Group' is responsible for the security and reception of the third young master when he returns."
"'Guard Group'? Responsible for the security of the third young master?" Lu Zhanqi said: "This is too exaggerated. In the Lu Mansion, only Mr. Lu's team is responsible for security work under leader Yao Shi. The rest are
All the core members of the family are protected by the Guardian Hall, so why would the Third Young Master arrange such a grand 'guard group' just for him?"
Tiesong shrugged his shoulders and said: "You probably don't know that this third young master is the most domineering and domineering person in the Lu family. Of course, he also likes to talk about ostentation. In the past, every time he returned to the family, it was always done by the leader of the second team, Xue Liji.
He is responsible for the security guard. However, Xue Liji also disappeared for no reason some time ago, so the hall had no choice but to ask me to rearrange the security arrangements for the third young master."
