Volume 1 Brother, Brother Chapter 9 A Useless Man Deserves Only a Useless Book (Part 1)
Zhang Qiwei closed his eyes and leaned on the leather chair without any expression.
Even though I was sitting alone in this small room, even though there was no one else around, I still had to maintain my usual posture.
What's more, he just made the biggest decision in his life: borrowing a thousand taels of gold!
Although it took a short time to make this decision, it was actually the result of his careful consideration.
There are three levels of loans: one hundred taels of gold, five hundred taels of gold and one thousand taels of gold. The loans are repaid with the harvest they received from the Holy Blood Sacrifice, and the interest rate is three times. In these few sentences, Zhang Qi got
Got a lot of information.
First of all, the borrowers believed that they all had hope of coming back alive from the blood sacrifice, so they dared to lend them money. This gave Zhang Qi endless confidence that as long as he could survive, anything could be done easily.
Secondly, they can gain a lot from the Holy Blood Sacrifice. After all, one thousand taels of gold is already an astronomical figure.
Thirdly, the triple interest rate shows that the borrower's expectation of recovering the principal is not high, which means that the Holy Blood Sacrifice is indeed very dangerous. Maybe many borrowers will not be able to make it out alive, so the borrower hopes to use high interest rates to ensure high income.
.
In this way, Zhang Qi can boldly assume that there are three possibilities for him to participate in the Holy Blood Sacrifice: First, he became cannon fodder and died. Naturally, there will be no harvest and the loan will not be repaid, so why doesn't he borrow as much as possible?
What? You don’t have to pay it back anyway.
The second is that he survived the blood sacrifice after all the hard work, gained a lot, and still had a surplus when repaying the loan. Then this loan is equivalent to an early investment. He knows that the greater the early investment, the greater the income will be.
The higher it is, of course he has to borrow more.
The third is that he came out alive, but gained nothing and couldn't even pay the debt. This is the result he wants to avoid as much as possible, because he absolutely believes that since the borrower dares to lend to them, he must be sure, and no one can avoid debt.
He doesn’t want to work hard to get out, only to become a slave to the lender. To avoid this result, he must make extremely thorough preparations; and how to make preparations well, of course, requires more
money to buy more things.
So no matter what the possibility is, it is definitely much better for him to borrow one thousand taels of gold than to borrow only five hundred taels.
Now just wait and see if there is anything he likes. Anyway, tonight, his only task is to spend money.
The voice sounded again: "Everyone has borrowed money. Among them, three people have borrowed one thousand taels of gold, twenty-five people have borrowed five hundred taels, and the remaining 3,812 people have all borrowed one hundred taels."
2. The big auction house respects your choice and will start the auction next. However, considering everyone's actual situation, this auction will be conducted in a face-to-face manner. The first step is the first level, free purchase. The light screen in front of you
Introductions to many items will appear on the screen. If you find what you want, you can click on that item to purchase. The required money will be automatically deducted after your purchase is successful; the item will appear in the cabinet behind you.
.Okay, now you can look at the light screen, our item introduction is out."
The blue box is the light screen. At this time, on the blue, rows of small characters have appeared. In front of each row of small characters is a small painting. It seems that it is the "item introduction" that the voice said.
"Yes.
The first item is a set of iron-black armor: a top-grade mortal weapon, standard cutting armor, priced at five hundred taels of silver.
The second piece, a top-grade common-grade green steel sword, is priced at 600 taels of silver.
The third piece, a top-grade ordinary black iron elixir furnace, is priced at 580 taels of silver.
…
Zhang Qi directly clicked on the "next page" in the lower right corner of the light screen, because the eight items on the first page were all top-grade ordinary products, and none of them sold for more than one thousand taels of silver, which is twelve taels of gold.
He really doesn't like it.
Since I borrowed a thousand taels of gold, how could I spend it on such low-grade things?
However, on the second page, the third page, and so on, they are all mortal weapons, at most they are top-grade mortal weapons. It is a "Blue Pill Furnace" inlaid with a water-attribute "Blue Spirit Stone".
The price is twelve taels of gold.
This alchemy furnace was quite nice, but Zhang Qi had no choice because he didn't know how to make alchemy, so it would be useless.
Moreover, these mortal-level weapons, armor, and implements are all produced in standard production and produced on the assembly line, and are extremely ordinary.
It wasn't until page 21 that Zhang Qi finally saw something he liked a little bit.
Red fire gilt armor, a low-grade fire-attributed spiritual weapon, with strong resistance to water-based secret techniques and a rebound effect against wood-based secret techniques. Helmet, battle armor, cloak, belt, shoulder pads, heart protection, wrist guards, and knee pads are all available.
, priced at thirty taels of gold.
Qingling Battle Clothes, a low-grade wood-attributed spiritual weapon, with strong resistance to secret techniques other than thunder, and forty-two taels of gold.
The difference between armor and battle clothes is that the former is made of metal, which has stronger protective power, but is heavy and difficult to drive; the latter is made of silk, cotton and linen, etc., which is light, flexible, and has less defensive power.
Especially in the heart, limbs, shoulders and other parts.
But Zhang Qi didn't like it very much, so he continued to scroll back, and finally fixed his eyes on a fiery red battle suit.
Liyan battle suit, men's style, medium-grade fire attribute spiritual weapon, inlaid with two fire attribute spiritual stones, extremely strong protective power, of course, the price is also extremely strong: one hundred and seventy-five taels of gold!
Zhang Qi thought about it again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and pressed hard on the extremely tempting picture, but was dissuaded by a line of small words below it: Li Yan's battle suit needs to be driven by true energy, at least the Qi Dan realm.
Only monks can wear it!
Zhang Qi gritted his teeth and gently knocked on the stone coffee table: Mom, you are just teasing me!
He quickly clicked the "Next Page" button, and the light screen kept jumping, but under each item there was a row of small words: This product needs to be driven by true energy and is suitable for use by Qi Dan realm monks.
Until the last page, the "next page" button is gone, but there are only three pictures on it. They are all painted in gray. You can't see clearly what they are. There is no text introduction. There is only a row of small words: Three items on this page.
Items will be auctioned on site.
Damn, you are really teasing me!
Zhang Qi gritted his teeth and grimaced, not knowing what to do: He just borrowed a thousand taels of gold, but was told that he couldn't use it - why should I borrow it if I can't use it? I don't know if it can still be done now.
Go back?
It's just that he can't find the "Loan Repayment" interface on the light screen, and he doesn't know how to contact the borrower.
He was alone in the small room, and there was no one outside the small room except for the blood sacrificers like them. He couldn't even find anyone to inquire about. Besides being alone and worrying, what else could he do?
This nervousness lasted for more than an hour, and then a gong was heard.
The voice sounded again: "Everyone has chosen their favorite things, of course some of them have not chosen. It doesn't matter, we still have three items to be auctioned on site. The auction method, you are still in the light screen
To bid, just click on the corresponding price with your finger. After the auction is successful, the items will be sent to the cabinet behind you, please pay attention to collect them. Okay, now please look at the first lot, there is a detailed introduction to it on the light screen.
That’s it: top-grade spiritual weapon, iron wire chain armor!”
A set of armor appeared on the light screen and was slowly rotating, seemingly to facilitate the blood sacrificers to view it better.
The armor is khaki in color, simple and heavy in shape, but only has a helmet, battle armor, arm guards and leg guards, without a cape and belt. Below the armor is a small introductory text: Iron wire chain armor, a top-grade spiritual weapon, driven by consciousness, weighing a thousand
Three hundred kilograms, suitable for monks above the blood core realm, please purchase with caution. The base price is one hundred taels of gold, and each increase in price shall not be less than fifty taels of gold.
There are three options below, which are three price increase amounts, namely fifty taels, one hundred taels and two hundred taels.
A high-grade spiritual weapon is probably the top treasure in this auction.
There is a brief description of artifacts in "Consider the Country". Instruments include clothing, weapons, utensils, etc., which can be divided into seven levels: mortal artifacts, spiritual artifacts, magical artifacts, mysterious artifacts, sacred artifacts, imperial artifacts, and divine artifacts.
Every time you upgrade to a level, the value is completely different.
For example, in this auction, mortal weapons are generally priced in silver. Even top-grade mortal weapons only cost five or six hundred taels of silver. Spiritual weapons must be purchased with gold. The lowest-grade low-grade spiritual weapons,
It can also be sold for dozens of taels of gold.
Zhang Qi smacked his lips. He liked this set of "Iron Wire Chain Armor". Earth attribute armors are generally thicker. It must be inlaid with spiritual stones. It has amazing defensive power. Unfortunately, it is too heavy.
Even the weight of 1,300 kilograms crushed him flat.
Probably only Blood Core Realm monks with a total body strength of more than 5,000 kilograms can afford this armor, right?
Moreover, this set of armor is not only astonishing in weight, but also in value. Although the base price is only one hundred taels of gold, within a few minutes, in the small box on the left side of the light screen that displays the current price, the price has shot up to one hundred taels.
As much as a thousand taels of gold.
And the price changes haven't stopped yet: from one thousand and fifty taels of gold, to one thousand one hundred and two hundred taels, and then to one thousand two hundred taels.
Zhang Qi was a little silent. There are three grades of gold loaned by big auction houses, the highest is one thousand taels of gold, but obviously, some people don't only have this one thousand taels of gold. Even though he has one thousand and fifty taels of gold,
But he is definitely not the richest person in the room.
Although many people regard participating in blood sacrifices as a dead end, there are also many people who regard it as an experience. Therefore, among the rich people with the four surnames of Lin, Chen, Ye, and Xiao, some of them will definitely let their children bring a lot of money.
Money, take the initiative to participate in this blood sacrifice.
Don't be careless, there are many people who are more heroic than him and spend a lot of money! This chapter has been completed!
