Wei Ci took out one from the Xumi space and handed it to Mr. Jin: "What is the value of such an inscribed arrow?"
"oh?"
Mr. Jin was a little surprised. He thought the young man in front of him was just asking casually, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him had such a thing in his hand.
His eyes moved from the tail feathers of the arrow to the arrowhead inch by inch, and he stroked the arrowhead again. He marveled and said: "The quality of the arrow itself of this magic weapon is really average, but the inscription on the arrowhead is strange.
"The lines of the inscription are smooth and coherent, without any flaws. Perhaps my eyesight is poor, and I couldn't see where the craftsman who refined it started to carve it."
Mr. Jin stared at the small arrow with blazing eyes.
Wei Ci touched his nose. He was so embarrassed to praise him in front of others!
"I wonder where my friend's inscribed arrows came from. Do you still have them?" Jin Lao looked at Wei Ci and asked anxiously.
Such an inscription method has never appeared before. If several weapon refiners in the chamber of commerce saw it, they would definitely be interested.
If he could get a batch of these engraved arrows to give to them, then as long as the other party would help him put in a good word to the senior officials of the Chamber of Commerce, he might be able to climb up the ladder and get out of the receptionist job.
Even if this road does not work, with the excellence of these inscribed arrows, if they can be purchased in large quantities, with only a little operation, and with the prestige of the Xinghai Chamber of Commerce, they will definitely be able to sell them at a high price...
Jin Lao was making calculations in his mind and kept looking at Wei Ci.
Wei Ci looked a little unnaturally at his sharp eyes.
He hesitated for a moment and sighed: "This is made by an elder in the family, and I only have a few in my hands."
When Mr. Jin heard this, disappointment flashed in his eyes.
However, Wei Ci's subsequent whisper gave him hope again: "Old Jin, I wonder what the value of these arrows is? If the price is right, I can secretly go to the elder to ask for some to trade, hehe!"
Mr. Jin held the arrow and looked at it again, and said seriously: "Based on my experience, my friend, the performance of this arrow will definitely not be bad.
"If there are any excess arrows like this to be sold to my Chamber of Commerce, I can make the decision and buy them from you at the price of 150 low-grade Yuan stones for a single arrow."
Wei Ci was delighted. The price showed him a wild way to make a fortune by refining weapons.
But this idea was quickly abandoned by him.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
Although the inscribed arrows are nothing to me, it is not difficult to see from the attitude of the old man in front of me that the inscriptions engraved by me using the "rubbing method" are obviously somewhat special, and even to the point of being a rare item.
If you are exposed, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be remembered.
You have to hold it steady, it’s underdeveloped, you can’t let it go...
Wei Ci secretly decided that he would never sell the inscribed magic weapon to outsiders until he was strong enough. There were many ways to earn Yuan Stone, and this one was not lacking.
"When I return to my family, I will ask the elders for help. If I can get some arrows, I will sell them to the Chamber of Commerce!" He promised solemnly.
After finishing speaking, he said to Mr. Jin: "Old Jin, I need 500 ordinary elemental level arrows. Please prepare them for me."
According to the price of 5 low-grade Yuan stones within 1,000 pieces, 500 pieces would be 2,500 low-grade Yuan stones. He took out 25 medium-grade Yuan stones and handed them to Jin Lao.
Mr. Jin nodded and waved casually, and a waiter left in response.
Not long after, several large bundles of neatly stacked arrows appeared in front of Wei Ci.
"The inscription pattern seems to be very popular. Give me some more inscription pattern ink, and I will learn from it later!" He said with a smile after taking the arrow returned by Mr. Jin.
Mr. Jin shook his head. Although he thought it was a bit unrealistic, he still asked the waiter to bring him several samples of inscription ink for him to choose from.
The inscription ink that Wei Ci chose was of medium-to-high quality. One bottle was worth 3 medium-grade Yuan stones, and he ordered 5 bottles in total.
After doing this, he said goodbye and walked out of the Chamber of Commerce.
Liao Wu followed him, not yet able to catch his breath.
Comparing people with each other makes people angry, and things worth tens of thousands of yuan are traded casually. This is not what he imagined.
Wei Ci didn't pay attention to the change in his expression. After coming out of the Chamber of Commerce, he took out a middle-grade Yuan Stone, threw it to Liao Wu, and said: "Liao Wu, tell me about the Martial Arts Alliance. The master has been imprisoned in the mountains and forests for the past few years.
I practice here, so I don’t know much about these situations.”
The latter turned out to be Yuan Shi and was stunned for a moment.
Thinking of the materials Wei Ci had sold previously, he suddenly felt that everything was no longer strange.
It is indeed normal to live in the mountains to practice and hunt a bunch of strange beasts.
"The Martial Arts Alliance is spread across the continent. It is a force jointly founded by strong men and powerful people. In fact, it is more of an official organization than a force.
"Because the original intention of the establishment of the Martial Arts Alliance was to fight against the alien beasts all over the continent.
"It's just that later on, as sects arose and families came together, they gradually became a neutral force balancing the forces of all parties, aiming to mediate the disputes on the mainland.
"The most important point is that the elders of the alliance will be appointed by super powerful men from each major sect or family. This is the greatest guarantee for the neutrality of the martial arts alliance..."
Liao Wu spoke for a long time, introducing the basic situation of the Martial Arts Alliance in detail.
After listening to his description and combining it with what he originally knew about the situation, Wei Ci's understanding of the alliance improved rapidly.
After the Shenzhi point on his head was opened, his memory was far superior to that of ordinary people, and he could memorize all the important information in just one go.
"Brother Wei, you haven't joined the martial arts alliance yet, have you?"
Liao Wu suddenly remembered this and took the initiative to lead him towards the Lancheng Branch Hall of the Martial Arts Alliance.
"All mainland practitioners need to register and join the alliance. If you want to buy or sell items at the alliance trade fair in the future, you won't even be able to enter the venue without alliance status."
Alliance trade fair?
Wei Ci was a little confused. He knew about joining the Martial Arts Alliance, but he was the first to hear about it at the Alliance Trade Fair.
Liao Wu saw his expression in his eyes, thinking that he was completely unclear, and explained: "Joining the alliance is actually only used to identify the identity of the practitioners, and has no other impact. After all, in addition to orthodox practitioners, there are many other people on this continent.
Evil cultivators who bring disaster to all directions.
"In short, without alliance status, it will be very inconvenient to walk on the mainland."
These are all things that are well-known to ordinary practitioners. In Liao Wu's opinion, there is no need for much explanation.
But since Wei Ci had questions, he explained them one by one.
Liao Wu continued: "As for the Alliance Trade Fair, to put it bluntly, it is the official auction house. Every once in a while, each branch will hold the Alliance Trade Fair to auction various treasures.
“However, unlike the auctions held by major chambers of commerce, the Alliance Fair has an additional part of reverse bidding.
"The so-called 'reverse bidding' means that the alliance will raise certain treasures from cultivators at extremely high values. As long as the cultivators have them, they can sell them on the spot. This is better than directly trading with major chambers of commerce.
The reward is much higher.”
After hearing this, Wei Ci became convinced of the so-called "reverse bidding".
This is actually a means for the alliance to collect needed resources for a certain group of people.
Behind every bid, there must be a commission from a certain person or force.
Liao Wu added: "The treasures of the 'reverse bidding' can also be designated by alliance practitioners. As long as they are practitioners with alliance status, they can apply. Of course, this is not free and requires the applicant to pay an additional sum.
Handling fee.”
Wei Ci nodded, this is good.
It is worth getting the alliance identity. If you cannot buy some urgently needed resources in the future, you can collect them publicly through the alliance trade fair.
The Lancheng branch of the Martial Arts Alliance is located in the center of the inner city. As Wei Ci expected, the main building is very impressive.
In addition, the guards at the entrance of the main hall are extremely imposing, far beyond the Xinghai Chamber of Commerce.
After Liao Wu showed an ordinary gray token, he entered it.
Wei Ci did not have an alliance identity token, so he was led by the guards to another side hall to register.
The process is not complicated. You just need to register your name and other basic information, identify the non-evil cultivator, and seal a drop of blood into the token. The registration is complete.
After getting the alliance identity token, Wei Ci successfully joined the martial arts alliance.
After carefully looking at the token in his hand, he found that the pattern on the back of the token was not unfamiliar to him.
Among the two tokens left by his father Wei Tianxing, one of them is the Martial Arts Alliance Law Enforcement Elder Token. The back of the token also has this pattern printed on it, but the token is completely black and looks the same as the one in his hand.
completely different.
Coming out of the Lancheng Branch Hall of the Martial Arts Alliance, Wei Ci sent Liao Wu away.
He already knew a lot about some situations in Lancheng, but he still needed to find a few more people to confirm. He couldn't just listen to Liao Wu's words.
…
After several days of inquiring, he already had a general understanding of Lancheng and the process of crossing the sea.
If you want to go to the main continent, you need to cross the sea between Xingyuan Island and the main continent.
It is almost impossible for small ships to cross the sea to reach the main land. Alien beasts are rampant in the sea, and areas that have not yet been explored by humans are filled with mysterious and powerful super alien beasts.
Even on the sea routes that are well known to humans, there are many powerful and strange beasts around.
No matter how powerful humans are, they will feel powerless when faced with the threats of the turbulent sea and unknown beasts.
As for crossing the void, it is not that no one has tried it.
Practitioners of the fourth level and above already have the ability to fly in the air. However, there are also flying alien beasts in the sky. No one can guarantee when a strange beast will appear in the blue sky.
Of those who have tried, no one has ever come back, let alone reached the main land on the other side of the sea.
Therefore, the only way to cross the sea is to take the alliance's large ferry.
From the vivid descriptions given by others, Wei Ci probably imagined that the alliance's large ferry was similar to the giant ship in the sea in his previous life.
The heavy armor on the outside can resist the attacks of alien beasts, and the magic circles all over the hull can propel the ferry to sail quickly. The huge space inside can not only carry people, but also transport massive supplies. It is even said that the ship has special equipment for catching marine alien beasts.
.
Wei Ci stopped under a restaurant called "Drunken God's Ju".
This is the closest resting place to the northwest coast.
The God of Drunkness resides inside, practicing in groups of three or three, or drinking alone.
