"Absenteeism, tardiness, early departure, breach of contract, food and lodging, losses, etc. add up to the total... after deducting taxes, you should be given... copper coins." The shopkeeper fiddled with the abacus skillfully, crackling, and the voice was crisp. After a while, the young master put Liu Wei'an's wages have been settled.
Liu Wei'an resisted the urge to take action, took the money, and left the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce without saying a word. In the past, he had a good impression of the Meihua Chamber of Commerce, but starting from the incident with the Ping An Motor Vehicles, his view of the Meihua Chamber of Commerce gradually changed, which made him understand that both fairness and integrity are based on strength. , without strength, the so-called integrity must be discounted. If he hadn't made several transactions with Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce, how could he see the faces of certain people clearly?
"Sir, where are we going?" Yan'er said weakly. She had no resistance at all to follow Liu Wei'an and leave the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce. In the past, she thought she would spend her whole life in the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce and never thought of leaving one day. Now not only did she leave, but she left so naturally that she herself It was all baffling, but she knew that there would be nothing wrong with following Liu Wei'an.
Liu Wei'an paused. He really hadn't thought about what he was going to do. Although he had already planned to resign, deep down in his heart, he still believed that Huang Chisheng did not dare to give up on him, so he left suddenly without any plan.
There are more people coming and going on the street than before. There are more than double the number of people. Another thing is that there are more female gamers. In the past, female gamers were rare, but now they account for at least 20%. Maybe in the near future, this proportion will still be high. It will improve, and by then, the game may be even more lively and interesting than in real life.
The Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce is one of the top ten chambers of commerce, ranking above the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce. This can be seen from the fact that Black Dragon City is named after the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce. Occupying the best part of the commercial street, the gate is majestic and majestic, even more domineering than the city gate, with exquisite carvings. A black dragon hovers over the gate, trying to rise into the air, lifelike, as if it were a living thing.
"This is it." Liu Wei'an strode towards the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
There are only two super chambers of commerce in Black Dragon City, one is the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce and the other is the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce. As for the other chambers of commerce, they are all small chambers of commerce. They are only somewhat famous in the local area, but no one knows about them outside. Generally speaking, for a small city like Black Dragon City, it is enough to have a super chamber of commerce. However, business is about balance, and monopoly is a violation of rules. Therefore, when the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce came over, the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce could only open its eyes. Close one eye. Although there are two super chambers of commerce, and their strengths are not far apart, the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce occupies at least more than 50%, close to 60% of the market share, the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce only occupies 30%, and the others share 10%. In Black Dragon City, if anyone The only one the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce dared not take action against was the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
"Let's go back." Just when he was about to enter the gate of the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce, Liu Wei'an stopped, hesitated for a moment, and turned away resolutely. Yan'er didn't understand why, but she didn't think of asking because she had no opinion. Just follow behind.
There is a grass market in every place. The difference is that some places are larger, some are smaller, some are chaotic, and some are formal.
On this day, there was an extra stall on the edge of the grass market. Compared with the various items sold in other stalls, this person's items were monotonous, with only one kind of thing, arrows.
Arrows are essential for archers, just like guns for snipers, they are both indispensable combat tools. This is nothing, what is puzzling is the price of the arrow: 130 copper plates. You can buy a bundle of arrows at this price, and many people stopped curiously and asked if the price was wrong. The girl who answered was a petite girl who didn't dare to look at the other person when she spoke. As for the stall owner, who covered his face with a black scarf, he couldn't see the message.
The man and woman were naturally Liu Wei'an and Yan'er. After leaving the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce, his mind suddenly became clear. Although there was no disaster yet, he knew that the next step of promotion was not far away. He figured out a truth: Instead of looking for others, it is better to let others come to him.
Between movement and stillness, the effect is completely different.
Black Dragon City is a little bigger than Huang Shacheng and has a prosperous population. It is one of the largest cities within a hundred miles nearby, but there are not many talisman masters. There are only a few people with average strength. They can only draw a rune for fireball, water arrow, wind blade and other spells in half a day. As for the flame rune and arrow, currently only he and Zou Lengzhi can draw it.
However, Zou Lengzhi is now in a difficult situation. He may be kicked out of the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce. Even if he is not kicked out, Zou Lengzhi is not his opponent, so he is not afraid at all.
He is very confident that the Flame Talisman Arrow can become his foundation in Black Dragon City.
"There is no mistake in the marking. An arrow costs 130 copper coins, not a penny less." Yan'er mustered up the courage to finish this sentence. She had no idea about the price of arrows. How much did Liu Wei'an ask her to mark? It was just the price, but after being asked by more than a dozen people, she seemed to understand that the price was not just high, but that it was ridiculously high and exaggerated, so much so that when someone asked later, she felt guilty.
"Can I see your arrows?" A young man wearing tiger skin stood in front of the stall. He should be very young, no more than twenty years old, but his face and eyes were full of wind and frost. I know he is the kind of person who has been in charge of his family for a long time. A bow made of unknown material behind his back exudes a sharp aura.
"Okay!" Yan'er saw that a customer was interested and quickly handed over an arrow.
"The arrows have the smell of fire. The ones that can be bought so expensive must be the famous flame talisman arrows, right?" The young man's eyes were sharp and his mind was quick. He saw the key point at once, looking past Yan'er and staring at Liu Wei'an. He knew that he was the one in charge.
"Yes, this is the flame talisman arrow." Liu Wei'an nodded.
Flame Talisman Arrow!
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar. If there is one most popular weapon bought during this period, there is only one, and that is the flame talisman and arrow. This is just because most of them are not archers and only hear the name, but have not seen the true appearance of the flame talisman and arrow. There is another point, Flame Talisman Arrows are only sold by the Plum Blossom Merchant Guild. There is no other company, so no one thought about it for a while. It was only when they heard the words of the young man in animal skins that they suddenly realized.
"I remembered, this is Master Fu. He used to sell flame talisman arrows in the grass market for a while, and then disappeared. Unexpectedly, he is back now." A stall owner recalled.
In this way, Liu Wei'an's identity has been authenticated, and no one will say that what he bought is fake or that the price is too high, because if it is really a flame talisman arrow, 130 copper plates are not expensive. The price of the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce is over 130 copper coins, and there is no market price, so often it is not available.
"Give me twenty, oh no, thirty." The beast-skin youth gritted his teeth and said. It could be seen that although he was not weak, he was not rich.
"If you don't have copper plates, you can trade with other items, such as power seeds, materials or other valuable things." Liu Wei'an had a good impression of this young man with animal skins. First, he was an archer, and second, he spoke with simplicity. , is a kind person.
The animal skin young man's eyes lit up, he took out a piece of animal skin from his arms and handed it to Liu Wei'an and said: "This is what I got from shooting an injured tiger in the mountains, because the flames can't burn it, so it feels like it should be a Good things, I brought them back, but I don’t know them, can you tell me how much the flame talisman arrows are worth?”
Liu Wei'an stretched out his hand and paused for a moment before taking the animal skin. There was a huge wave in his heart. How lucky was this young man wearing animal skin to shoot a demon tiger? He remembered how much damage was caused by just one injured demonic wolf. Half of the city was destroyed, and several gold-level masters were killed. In the end, the demonic wolf could not be left behind, and it was ran away.
And this beast-skin young man shot and killed the devil tiger alone, what else could it be if he wasn't lucky? Even if the Demon Tiger was injured, it would be effortless to deal with a silver-level man. The only explanation was that the Demon Tiger was too seriously injured and was dying frequently, so he would take advantage of the beast-skin youth.
The animal skin tentacles were soft, with a hint of warmth, as if it was not dead but alive. Liu Wei'an was surprised. This was the first time he saw this kind of animal skin, but he didn't know what material it was made of. He didn't know what was used to carve some handwriting, which was extremely fine. He stared at it with wide eyes, and finally stared until his eyes were dazzled, but he still couldn't see a single word clearly. Although the animal skin was only the size of a palm, it was densely packed with at least tens of thousands of words.
No one would engrave such small words on it for no reason after eating a full meal. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he immediately recognized that the animal skin was a good thing and said without any hesitation: "I can't recognize it either, but I can feel that this is a good thing, so let’s exchange it for 200 flame talisman arrows.”
"Well, it may not be worth so much. I think 100 flame talisman arrows are almost enough." The young man in the animal skin was a little embarrassed. He thought it was a good thing to get the tiger skin, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't crack it. The handwriting was written on it, and even after asking many seniors, they couldn't figure out what it was, so he regarded the animal skin as useless. If it weren't for the fact that the animal skin was kept in his arms, he would have probably lost it. He planned to exchange the animal skin and all the money he had on him for 100 talisman arrows, but Liu Wei'an opened it and got 200 talisman arrows, but he felt guilty.
"Maybe it's not worth a penny, maybe it's priceless, but since I said 200 talisman arrows, it won't change. If you agree, we'll trade. If you don't, we'll take the hide back." Liu Wei'an said calmly. , he believed in his own vision, 200 arrows were not worth a single hair on this animal hide. It was just that he saw that the space ring on the beast-skin youth was not large and could only hold 200 talisman arrows in total, so he reported this number.
"I agree!" the young man in animal skin said quickly. After loading the arrows away, he said thank you to Liu Wei'an and Yan'er and left happily.
