Chapter 68 Jewelry
After a few minutes like this, the well-trained waiter finally woke up, his eyes gradually became clear, and he said, "I'm so sorry, I've lost my composure. Please come with me, I think you need our engraver and designer to talk carefully."
I nodded, put the crystal into the "Qiankun Ring", and lost the light of the crystal, as if the entire hall was dim. Only then did the players return to normal, and various discussions sounded, and a few bold girls had asked me what the price was.
After leaving a sentence "I will sell it in 'Longhuxuan' in three days", I followed the waiter into the studio behind the store, leaving behind a string of noise. It seems that I don't need to advertise, this influence has already gone.
When I came to the studio, there were two people named "jewelry designer" and "jewelry engraver". Both of them were very young, at most twenty-five or six. Looking at the crystal that I took out, I was not much intoxicated. I just looked at it with an appreciation look. However, the "jewelry engraver" kept gesturing on it with his hands, as if he was thinking about where to start.
The waiter said my request, and the "jewellery designer" pondered for a while and said, "Sir, I think it is not the best choice for you to make all necklaces. Now rings are also the type that female players like, so I suggest you make half of them into crystal rings, and I believe they will definitely sell well."
I thought about it for a moment and found that his words were still very reasonable, so I nodded and agreed. As for the pattern, I didn't have to worry about it, because they had many monster pictures in their hands, so I chose some of the beautiful appearances as carved patterns; in addition, the images of the twelve zodiac signs and the four divine beasts were also my choice.
When it comes to carving, "jewelry engraver" recommended many types of carving methods, but I finally chose laser engraving, which is a way to carve directly inside the crystal without hurting the appearance of the crystal, so I chose this carving method without hesitation. The price is just a little higher. The cost of engraving each necklace is 200 gold coins, the cost of engraving the ring is 150 gold coins, and the average engraving method is only 100 gold coins at most.
After the "jewelry engraver" judged that my crystal could be processed into about 200 necklaces and 800 crystal rings. I paid 20,000 gold coins in advance and agreed to pick up the goods in two days.
Finally, they asked me to design a crystal ring carved by white tiger and a crystal necklace carved with little white, and they were waiting for it, because when I go out later, someone will definitely ask about what happened just now; at the same time, they can also be placed in "Dragon and Tiger Xuan" as samples to expand the publicity.
Although it was just a crystal ring and a crystal necklace, it still took the "jewelry engraver" more than 20 minutes to look at the vivid mini-shaped novice inside the crystal clear crystal, and I immediately fell in love. It turned out that it was not only girls who liked these things. As for the crystal ring, there were three white tigers of different shapes, one in a striking shape, the other in a sleepy shape, and the last one was intimately accompanied by my side. Haha, I actually brought myself in. This "jewelry engraver" is really creative!
I put on the crystal ring and looked around. I felt very good. I was in a happy mood and followed the waiter out of the studio. There were indeed several female players in the lobby outside. The male players who accompanied them were probably boyfriends or the like.
Seeing me come out, one of the girls pointed at the necklace on my chest and said, "Ah, is this the necklace made? It's so beautiful."
"Yes, it's actually carved into the crystal. It's so beautiful..."
These girls started talking all the time, and for a moment my ears were filled with Yingying and Yanyan, and I couldn't tell what they were saying. Finally, I could only reiterate that I could buy this necklace in three days in my "Longhuxuan". The mood I originally wanted to offer my ring treasure was gone now.
These girls were really troublesome. Finally, they asked me where the "Longhuxuan" was. They didn't know the famous "Longhuxuan", which made me a little discouraged. But when they thought about focusing on jewelry, they knew that they were not enthusiastic about the game itself, so they patiently said the address and ran away in panic.
After this time, I finally came to a profound conclusion, that is: women, sometimes, are really scary!
Back to "Longhuxuan", I put the crystal necklace and ring in the window, and as a display, I hurriedly got off the line. I was really tired this day. I slept in a warm and comfortable bed, and I fell asleep with the crystals in my mind.
It was already past ten o'clock the next morning when I went online again. Because I was sleeping too hard, I didn't get up until nine o'clock, washed up and had breakfast, it was around nine forty.
The first thing I did when I entered the game was to go to the shop in front. As expected, there were many people watching in front of the window of the crystal necklace and ring, most of which were female players. After listening to their discussion, I knew that these two pieces of jewelry were still very popular. I nodded with satisfaction and came to the "Lin Family Restaurant" for dinner. I forgot before I was offline yesterday that my hunger level had risen to 54. When I first went online, I felt that my stomach was rebelling.
After eating three or four hundred gold coins, I felt better. Under Master Lin's instructions, I brought Xiaobai and Baihu to the "Tianxia Auction House". Zhang San looked at Xiaobai and Baihu and said, "Hey, Brother Moshui, why do you always bring them with you now, and you don't feel troublesome?"
"If you were chased one after another, would you tell me if you would have two bodyguards?" I was bitten by a snake for a year, but I was afraid of straw ropes for ten years! I am not sure if the remnants of the "Demon Dragon Society" would give me some secretly. It would be better to act cautiously.
"Okay, I didn't say it. By the way, Lao Song said just now, I'll give you a 15,000 reputation reward. Hehe, brother, this is what I have tried to win for you. Why do you think I'm thanking me?"
Looking at Zhang Sanguishingly, I felt funny and said, "Hey, didn't I hand over 'Ye Mingzhu' to you for auction? Or, your brother doesn't care about those things at all, so I'll find another auction house." As he said that, he made a gesture of reaching out to return to "Ye Mingzhu".
"No, no! I was wrong, it's okay!" Zhang San rubbed his hands and said, "I heard that you processed a piece of crystal in the jewelry store yesterday? Can you put a few pieces in the auction house? Don't be too good. As long as it can add some glory to the auction, and it can also promote you. This is a killing two birds with one stone!"
It turned out that I was trying to hit my crystal, no wonder. But this guy is so informative, he actually found out so quickly. Or are they real-life NPCs who communicate information from time to time because they are too boring?
Shake your head and throw this idea out of your thoughts.
Seeing me shaking my head, Zhang Sanke was anxious and grabbed my hand and said, "Don't, this is a great thing! Why don't you agree? I've gone to see the goods, absolutely..."
Looking at Zhang San who was a little anxious, he laughed and said, "Okay, I promised you. Of course I can tell whether it is good or bad, but I promised to open it in the store tomorrow, so the price will be difficult to set."
"You don't care about the price, I've already decided for you. If you sell it in "Longhuxuan", each necklace will be 10,000 gold coins and a ring will be 5,000 gold coins. As for the auction price, the necklace will be 4,000 gold coins and the ring will be 2,000 gold coins. According to my necklace, you can buy about 12,000 yuan, and the ring will be about 6,000 yuan, so the price of your "Longhuxuan" is still very reasonable." Haha, after all, you are an authentic profiteer, and the price is always high.
Although I know that this industry can definitely make money, and it is all in vain, I dare not open such a high price. In my original plan, 5,000 gold coins of necklaces are already good, and 2,000 gold coins of rings are also considered a good price. It seems that I have to study hard with the "old" guys like them in the future.
"Okay, just do what you said." I am absolutely assured of Zhang San, because although this person is a little greedy, he will definitely sell your things to the best price, because the higher the sales, the more bonus he will get. It can be said that his interests are directly linked to me, and they are also combined with all other players who auction items.
Leaving the enthusiastic Zhang San, I came to Qu Yezi's "Blacksmith's Shop". Qu Yezi was drinking "Du Kang" in the shop, with a faint blush on his face, and it seemed that he had drunk a lot.
"Boy, you're here." Qu Yezi saw me entering the door, glanced at me, then continued to drink wine, and said in a while: "I really can't tell that you are still the 'Guardian of Pangu City'. That title has not appeared in hundreds of years. You kid, you are so good!" As he said that, he gave a thumbs up.
"Haha, average." Seeing Master Qu praise seriously, I felt a little embarrassed. It was nothing big. However, I heard Master Qu say that "The Guardian of Pangu City" has not appeared for hundreds of years. I don't know what happened. Does he know the backgrounds in the game? You must know these backgrounds are very critical to the game. Sometimes this knowledge is often needed to solve the problems in the game. Just like my "cursed Xuanyuan Sword", if you know where the other four parts of Chiyou are, you can lift the curse as soon as possible, and then the legendary artifact - Xuanyuan Sword, will be reborn.
Thinking of this, my heart moved and took out the "cursed Xuanyuan Sword" from the "Canton Ring" and said: "Master, this time I went to Xuanyuan City to find a sword, but it was a pity that I was actually cursed-"
Before he finished speaking, the "cursed Xuanyuan Sword" in his hand had already reached Master Qu. Damn, this was the trick again, thinking in his mind, are those senior masters using this method to shock those juniors? And I am one of them? But to be honest, I really didn't see Master Qu's actions clearly just now, just a flash in front of me, the sword in my hand had changed hands.
Alas, how great it would be if I had this speed! I sighed in my heart and forgot to ask Master Qu about the "cursed Xuanyuan Sword". But if I don't ask, it doesn't mean that I don't want to say it. Before I finished sighing, he suddenly appeared in front of me again, holding up the "cursed Xuanyuan Sword" in my hand, and ruthlessly reminded me, as if I owed him tens of millions of gold coins. After more than a minute of knowing, he said, "Where did this sword come from?"
I replied carefully: "I got it from fighting monsters in the 'Winning Tribe'." Of course, I got it from fighting monsters. In any case, in the game, the people of the "Winning Tribe" are also considered monsters. Of course, the main thing to say this is to worry about the area master. To be honest, he is the same NPC as Xuanyuan Yi of the "Winning Tribe". Although the division of labor is different, he cannot deny this.
If I knew that I got this "cursed Xuanyuan Sword" by killing "people", I guess this old guy would have to fight for me. I don't want to take this risk, after all, life is precious (di).
Master Qu stared at me for a few minutes before turning his bright eyes into turbid presbyopia eyes, stuffed the "cursed Xuanyuan Sword" into my hand and said, "This sword is cursed. Legend has it that it requires Chi You's complete body to untie it. At that time, except for the head being snatched back by the Jiuli people, all the other parts were missing, and no one knew where they were going."
Alas, this is not a blow to my morale! Although I know that the other five parts are difficult to find, I was not discouraged. After all, as long as this task exists, it will be solved for a day, and clues will exist, but I haven't discovered it for the time being. But now, when this old guy says, my confidence has dropped by half. After all, his knowledge is absolutely unwrong. Isn't it all up to his guidance to successfully obtain "cold iron" last time?
"But--" After pausing for a long time, Master Qu spoke again, lifting my heart to his throat: "When I was looking for sword-casting materials everywhere when I was young, I saw two of them. They were the weapons of the ancient evil demon "Yaozi" on the "Nine Soul Mountain" in Yanhuang City. Among them, "Yao" was holding Chiyou's right arm and "Zi" was holding the left arm. These two evil demons were the generals under Chiyou. After snatching his arm, they fled to "Nine Soul Mountain". Their current strength is probably not much different from that of the divine beast."
Yazi? I have heard of "Yazi" but in the game, "Yazi" is actually two kinds of monsters. This is really strange. Is there any allusion? Also, these two guys are actually generals under Chiyou. I really couldn't imagine why they didn't stay in the "Chiyou Tribe" but instead ran to "Jiuhun Mountain" to become the mountain king. What's most annoying is that these two guys actually have the strength to be close to the divine beasts. How can they live? It seems that it will be a long way to go to collect Chiyou's body.
"What about the other three parts?" Although it is difficult to collect, it is always better to get it one step earlier than others.
"I don't know this either." Master Qu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "But in my early years, I met a friend from Yanhuang City. He was very knowledgeable about this and probably knew other parts of Chiyou's body. However, he has a very strange temper and wants to ask him to do things. First, he must have the twelve most famous wines among the twelve cities in the world; second, he must find a red dragon hidden in the 'Kunlun Mountain' for him, because the 'Red Dragon', which has become a monster, killed his son and daughter-in-law 20 years ago; third, he must defeat his institutional beast. As long as all these three are satisfied, you can ask him to do things."
Damn! It's so troublesome, it takes so much effort just for one information. It's really expensive information cost!
However, I still asked tirelessly: "So, Master, where is that 'Kunlun Mountain'? What kind of monster is the mechanical beast?"
Master Qu heard my question and sucked "Du Kang" hard, looked up and thought for a while, and said, "Kunlun Mountain is in the northwest of Pangu City. It is said to be the residence of immortals. It is very difficult to find. There are various rare birds and beasts inside. The "Red Dragon" is just a small monster among them, which is difficult for ordinary people to reach. As for the "mechanical beast", it was the proud work of my old friend "Lu Gong" and made of tough wood and flexible rattan. It is no less than that of a monster in terms of strength."
I remember that the north of Pangu City is the "Mammoth Plateau", which is very vast. No one can fully explore it now. Since "Kunlun Mountain" is in the northwest of Pangu City, then it is on the edge of "Mammoth Plateau". As long as you move along the edge of the "Mammoth Plateau", you should be able to find the "Kunlun Mountain". Of course, you have to prepare some things in advance. As for the "Mechanical Beast", it reminds me of the "Wood Demon King" on "Five Stone Mountain". The "Wood Demon King" seems to be made by humans in appearance, especially in joints, but the "Wood Demon King" is not wrapped in vines, and the "ghost vines" are just its defense.
The first condition is normal, and the third condition is acceptable. After all, I have some experience in dealing with such monsters. In addition, I now have the "Soul Dragon Arrow" that specifically restrains wood monsters, and my air superiority can still be dealt with. But the second condition is a bit worrying.
First of all, from Master Qu’s tone, the “Kunlun Mountain” should be difficult to find, and even if it is found, it is difficult to find the “Red Dragon”. As Master Qu said, as the residence of the immortals in ancient legends, there are countless rare birds and strange beasts, that is, it is full of countless monsters and monsters with a level above the monsters. Maybe the “Red Dragon” has not been found yet. I have become the lunch for those monsters. Thinking about it, with the strength of the “Lu Gong”’s mechanism beast, I still cannot avenge my revenge. If I were to say that I would not have a big chance of winning.
So, it is difficult to find other parts of Chiyou's body!
Leaving the "Blacksmith Shop" in Qu Yezi, I returned to "Longhuxuan". Looking at the customers coming and going, I couldn't get any thoughts in my heart. I kept thinking about how to solve the problem of "Red Dragon". In the end, I found that my strength was still not enough. It was time to improve my strength, especially now, the three main attack skills of "archery", "trap technique" and "basic sword technique" have all reached the bottleneck of advanced (proficiency level 99/100). If I can make a breakthrough, my strength will be greatly improved. After all, the gap between advanced and master level is still very large.
But how to break through the bottleneck of advanced level and enter the master level? According to known experience, some players break through the bottleneck state after a certain skill reaches advanced level after creating related skills; some players, such as a thief under Kongkong'er, use the "theft technique" on their companions every day in order to break through the bottleneck of "theft technique", and they will break through smoothly over time. However, this method is a bit terrifying, because according to Kongkong'er, this guy gave up all other skills and spent all his time on this after going online. The level is still a little more than level 10.
Some players, such as swordsman, learn a high-level swordsman and break through the primary level, then his "basic swordsmanship" will also break through and become a master-level skill. The clear representative of this example is the "Love is just one word" I have encountered. Last time I saved them from the "Purple Gold Demon Leopard" and talked about this during a chat.
The main ones are these three types, and the others are similar. In this regard, the leader of a gang like Kongkonger is really making a profit as a brother. A lot of important information can be obtained from Kongkonger. Of course, my reward is also very generous. I often sell good equipment to the "Iron Blood Sect" at a fair price. For example, the last time the gold-level "Dragon Teeth" and "Golden Sword" were all left to Kongkonger. The two sold a total of 3.5 million gold coins. If they were obtained from the auction house or their own "Dragon Tiger Xuan", the 4 million gold coins would be considered a small amount.
If I rely on new skill books, my hope is very slim, because there are no skill books available on the market now, and I have learned them all by myself even if there are them. Even if each skill book can be sold for about 700,000 to 800,000 gold coins, even the leader of a big gang like Kongkonger has not obtained the skill books.
Therefore, my only hope is to create skills by myself. If I can create a new skill in archery, it should be very likely to break through the bottleneck. The last time "Three Arrows Attacks" and "Thousand Arrows Attacks" cannot be considered creation, it should be just a variant of "archery". As long as others have pets carrying people in the air like Xiaobai, they can also use these two archery techniques. Even if the archer who pays attention to strength, "Three Arrows Attacks Attacks" can be used easily. This is just a matter of proficiency.
So I need to create a brand new bow and arrow skill. Looking back on the bow and arrow skills I already know, "Guiding Arrow" is the one I am most familiar with, because my "Golden Hunting Bow" has this advanced bow and arrow skill. It only takes 30 points of internal force to change the direction of the arrow. However, this is not the case with a simple "Guiding Arrow". Not only does it require relatively high internal force, but also needs to master the wind-type mana. The internal force maintains the powerful power of the bow and arrow, and the wind-type mana controls the direction of the arrow.
Now my internal strength has been greatly improved after the continuous meditation and training these days. It is now 25 o'clock, and the distance from 30 o'clock is only a line. However, the wind-type mana is not what I have. The lack of mana skill books makes it impossible for me to create a "guiding arrow". Of course, there is another way to obtain wind-type mana, which is to eat the inner alchemy of monsters above the Wind-type Boss level.
Among the wind-type monsters I am familiar with, the bald eagle is a type. The original Xiaobai can cast simple wind-type magic; the other is the "Sou Qinglong", a monster of the monster level that was already dying in front of me, has powerful wind-type magic. If I can obtain its inner alchemy, then the success rate of my ability to create "guided arrows" will be greatly improved.
Maybe, I can make some ideas on "Asian Qinglong".
Chapter completed!
