"Yeah, how can there be so many Sky Eye Stones? Newcomers like you and me are given one Sky Eye Stone a month, and it's just an ordinary Sky Eye Stone." Xia Houfeng spread his hands, feeling helpless.
"wrong."
Qin Shiming pointed at the two men who entered. Qin Shiming could tell at a glance that the two men were average in strength, on par with Xia Houfeng, but at a lower level. "They went directly to the second floor. Where did they get so many Sky Eye Stones?"
"Don't point blindly."
Xia Houfeng's expression changed slightly, he pressed Qin Shiming's hand and whispered: "They are from the Medicine Refining Union, so of course they have capital."
"How to say?"
Qin Shiming frowned, "Why does the Pharmaceutical Refining Union have capital?"
"Isn't this difficult to understand?"
Xia Houfeng said: "Most of the medicine refining guilds are doctors with extraordinary medical skills. If you put them in any hospital in the world, they would be very powerful beings, at least at the level of experts and professors."
"Their medicine refining union often makes medicines, and there are all kinds of bruises and injuries, and there are even countless medicines for strengthening the body. People in Longmen fight and fight almost every day. Even if they practice on their own on weekdays, there is a risk of injury. Once injured, there are no hospitals in Longmen.
We can only ask people from the Alchemy Guild for help."
"Can people give you medicine for free? Can people treat your illness and injuries for free?"
"So, people from the Medicine Refining Guild are not short of money. This is why I suggest you join the Medicine Refining Guild. There are benefits."
Hearing this, Qin Shiming nodded in realization. He understood and used demand to make money.
In the Dragon Gate, all the dragons and tigers are strong and strong, and they will not catch colds or fevers, but they will suffer from bruises and injuries. They can sell medicine, why can't they sell medicine themselves?
Qin Shiming subconsciously glanced at his shoulder and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"For example, ordinary members of the Spear Club and our Broadsword Club, if they want to obtain more Sky Eye Stones, they can only work for the organization."
Xia Houfeng continued the introduction, pointing to the two big men guarding the Sutra Pavilion, "These two are masters of the Xuan-level class. Each of them has four Sky Eye Stones every month. However, they work as guards here, and each
You can get one more Sky Eye Stone every month."
"Another example is working in the canteen washing dishes, sweeping the floor, flushing toilets, etc. These are all paid. Although it is not much, it is enough to maintain a basic life."
"You know it in detail. Are you working part-time too?"
"Yes, it's okay to find a job."
"What kind of job is it? Let me tell you."
"Clean the toilet."
Upon hearing this, Qin Shiming curled his lips in disgust, "Can't you be a little bit successful? Even if you find a guard, no wonder you smell weird."
"You still dislike it?"
Xia Houfeng, however, did not feel ashamed. Instead, he was very proud, "Do you know how many connections I relied on and how many gifts I gave in order to find this job?"
"Are you still proud of cleaning toilets?"
Qin Shiming disdainfully curled his lips.
You can only support your family by working part-time, but you can't make a lot of money. If you want to get rich, you have to engage in monopoly business. For example, the two members who just joined the medicine refining union have average strength, but they are qualified to go to the second floor.
The gap has fundamentally widened, and this gap is getting wider and wider.
"Can I compete with you?"
Xia Houfeng was very depressed, "You are powerful and a miracle doctor. You will never starve to death wherever you go."
"Stop talking about useless things."
He led Xia Houfeng to the edge of the ring and sat down. He held a cigarette in his mouth and started smoking.
"Besides, is there any other way to get the Sky Eye Stone?"
"Yes, the Arena Challenge, with the Sky Eye Stone as the bet."
Qin Shiming shook his head. This is a way, but it is more like a black market boxer in the octagonal cage. He is doing life-threatening work. It is not cost-effective and it is a waste of time.
Qin Shiming still likes the feeling of making money while lying down.
"anything else?"
"For example, what do your respective presidents do to make money? Collect protection fees?"
"That's right."
Xia Houfeng glanced around and lowered his voice: "We pay membership fees every month, which are actually protection fees. This is the case for both the Spear Club and the Broadsword Club. They pay at least a quarter of the Sky Eye Stone every month.
The more you have, the stronger you are and the more you will be valued by the president."
"Of course, although it is hateful and annoying, at least the job was introduced by the president. As long as you work hard, you can save your capital and get protection from the president. For example, I have been here for more than a month and no one has bullied me at all.
At most, you can ask me to help you wash clothes, bring some food and so on."
"You don't have to pick up the soap, do you?"
Qin Shiming joked.
"Fuck you, you're just picking up soap, these are all serious people."
Xia Houfeng rolled his eyes, and then laughed. It was good to have an acquaintance in Longmen. Chatting would not be so boring.
"Seriously, do you want to join our sword club? I can recommend you."
Changing the topic, Xia Houfeng said: "There are twenty-seven people in our Broadsword Club, and our strength is quite good. We can at least compete with the Spear Club, and are on par with each other."
"It was your boss who asked you to be a lobbyist, right?"
Qin Shiming raised his eyebrows, how could he not hear it?
He didn't know whether the sword would be strong or not, but Qin Shiming would not be so stupid as to give the money he had worked so hard to save to others as protection money.
"Didn't you just suggest that I join the Alchemy Refining Guild?"
Xia Houfeng's expression was stern, "Yes, our boss did ask me to find a way to win over you. With your joining, the sword will be even more powerful than the tiger, and it will definitely outlast the spear."
"But from the perspective of a friend, I would suggest you join the Alchemy Refining Guild. These people are extremely rich and will be of great benefit to you. You must not miss this opportunity."
"Let me think about it carefully before we talk about it. I'm fine being alone now, and there are still many people in Longmen who can't stand me. Let's talk about it later."
Qin Shiming did not agree on the spot, but actually refused.
Xia Houfeng stopped trying to persuade him and just said, "Just think about it yourself. I can't help you much."
"Thank you, this is already good."
Qin Shiming felt warm in his heart. Although Xia Houfeng had deceived him before, at that time Xia Houfeng was already a temporary worker at Longmen, so it was reasonable and not inappropriate to hide something.
Don’t you have some reservations yourself?
"Okay, it's getting late. Do you want to wander around again, or go back and rest?"
The two of them smoked two more cigarettes in succession. Xia Houfeng asked, he had already fallen asleep at this point in the past, but he had no choice but to get up early the next morning to clean the toilet.
"Go back and rest."
Qin Shiming looked back at the Sutra Pavilion and wanted to go in and sit. Unfortunately, his shoulder injury was not easy to deal with, and there were not many Sky Eye Stones in his pocket, so he had to save some.
"Wait a minute."
However, Qin Shiming and Xia Houfeng had just stood up when a middle-aged man in a long gown suddenly blocked Qin Shiming's path.
When Xia Houfeng saw the man's face, his heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he smiled to please him;
"President Yang, hello..."
"Well."
The man called President Yang didn't even look at Xia Houfeng. His eyes fell on Qin Shiming with a playful smile on his lips.
