Jingfeng was lying on the bed, recalling all the ambiguous scenes just now, and couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his heart.
He shook his head, tried hard to forget the scene just now, and simply got up to practice.
In the evening, someone from the Chamber of Commerce knocked on the door and brought food, and Jingfeng quit his cultivation state.
"Does this food cost money?" Jingfeng asked the waitress who delivered the food.
"The people who live in other courtyards are all distinguished guests. How can I accept your money?"
The waitress chuckled, leaving a faint scent.
"Wait a minute, I have something I want to discuss with Consul Zhao."
"Please wait a moment."
After a while, a smartly dressed middle-aged man came to see Jingfeng.
"Master Jing, what do you want from me?"
Consul Zhao asked with a professional smile on his face.
"Consul Zhao, can your chamber of commerce entrust the auction of spirit-infused weapons?"
When Consul Zhao heard this, he thought, did this guy have some connections?
He quickly replied: "Of course, spirit-infused weapons are hard currency in the cultivation world, and the demand is huge!"
He asked tentatively: "Is it possible that Mr. Jing has some connections?"
Jingfeng did not answer directly, but asked: "What is the general price of a spiritual-infused weapon at auction?"
"Generally, it ranges from a few dozen taels to a hundred taels. Of course, we will ask someone to identify it in advance. The quality of the auction items cannot be bad."
"Some magic weapon shops also sell spiritual weapons, but they are usually more expensive and of varying quality."
Jingfeng nodded and asked, "What are the prices of refined iron and rough jade in the city?"
Consul Zhao vaguely guessed something, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Could it be that Mr. Jing can provide us with a spiritual infusion device?"
"Exactly, I can forge some myself."
Consul Zhao's expression suddenly became very excited, "There is no need to go to the city to buy. There are many warehouses in the Chamber of Commerce. If Mr. Jing needs it, we will sell it to you at the cheapest price."
When Jingfeng heard this, he naturally didn't believe that these businessmen had such good intentions.
"Thank you, Consul Zhao, for your kindness. If you say so, are there any conditions?"
Consul Zhao had a flattering smile on his face.
"Hey, Mr. Jing is really smart. We only have one condition."
"Tell me."
"If the quality of the forged spirit-infused weapon is up to standard, our chamber of commerce will pay you a price, how about it?"
Jingfeng touched his chin and seemed to be thinking.
"Don't worry, the price will never let you suffer."
Consul Zhao was afraid that Jingfeng would not agree, so he quickly added.
Jingfeng felt that this deal was quite a good deal, so he nodded in agreement.
"Is there an iron furnace, molds, etc. that I can borrow?"
"Of course there is! If you need anything else, just ask."
"Give me another quiet room."
The efficiency of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce is truly unparalleled. They quickly arranged a side room for Jingfeng, and all the tools for blacksmithing and smelting were available.
Jingfeng took off his coat and lit a fire in the furnace. After a while, servants brought piles of fine iron, raw copper and colorful jade.
"How do you calculate these prices?" Jingfeng asked Consul Zhao.
"When you refine the spirit-infused weapon, the money spent on the materials will be deducted from your account."
"good."
Consul Zhao led the people away. Jingfeng took a long breath and recalled the knowledge and know-how Ouyang Lian told him in his mind.
Feeling that there was no problem, Jingfeng grabbed the hammer and began to forge the material.
The swords made from the first few pieces of iron were not very well controlled by the fire. Jingfeng banged them back and forth, and either they felt they were not very sharp or they felt they were not tough enough.
A few that could be salvaged were made into ordinary iron soldiers, while those that could not be salvaged could only be turned into a pile of scrap metal and remade.
After Jingfeng's continuous familiarity and common sense, he finally forged a sword that shone with cold light.
He shook his aching arms and picked up a piece of jade from the table next to him.
After carving several pieces of jade, Jingfeng finally succeeded. The delicate and smooth lines seemed to contain huge power.
Then, he raised the hammer, poured a small amount of infuriating energy into it, and struck it carefully.
After an unknown amount of time, Jingfeng completed his first spiritual weapon, a three-foot-long broad-bladed knife.
He picked up the knife himself and poured Qi into it. The soul-infusing groove in the groove of the knife's handle suddenly glowed brightly. He slashed it casually, and a piece of scrap metal was immediately broken into two pieces.
"good."
Jingfeng was quite satisfied, so he took a short rest and started to forge the next one.
When he was tired, he would meditate for luck, and when he was sleepy, he would lie down on the small bed and take a nap. In short, Jingfeng never went out, and no one from the Chamber of Commerce came to see him.
In this way, Jingfeng's forging skills became more and more proficient, and the success rate became higher and higher. I don't know how long it took, Jingfeng reached out to touch the pile of iron blocks, and found that he was empty, and there was no jade left on the table. Not much.
Looking at the corner of the room, there are eight or nine soul-injecting weapons with cold light and bright colors.
At this moment, Jingfeng's gathered energy relaxed, and he suddenly felt extremely hungry, so he opened the door and went outside the courtyard.
The maid arranged by Consul Zhao in the backyard saw Jingfeng coming out and hurriedly informed the people at the Chamber of Commerce.
After a while, Consul Zhao came to Jingfeng with a happy face and asked, "Mr. Jing, how is the progress?"
"How long has it been since I started forging weapons?"
"Three whole days."
Jingfeng nodded and said, "We'll talk about the other things later. I'm very hungry now and have to go out to find something to eat."
Consul Zhao quickly winked at the maid next to him, and then said to Jing Feng: "Mr. Jing, please wait a moment. I have arranged for people to prepare food and drinks. They will be there in a moment."
Jingfeng glanced at Consul Zhao and didn't believe he was so kind, so he didn't answer.
Consul Zhao smiled flatteringly and said, "I, Mr. Zhao, treated you to this meal."
Jingfeng did not refuse anymore and followed Consul Zhao to an elegant hall.
After a while, several maids brought a table of wine and food. Jingfeng was not polite. Since someone was treating him, he didn't eat for free.
The whole table of food was swept away like a whirlwind, and Jingfeng let out a long burp, almost staring at Consul Zhao and the maids.
Jingfeng rubbed his belly with satisfaction, stood up with difficulty, and said to Consul Zhao: "Let's go, I will take you to see the prepared spirit infusion device."
"good."
Consul Zhao came to his senses and followed Jingfeng to the blacksmithing room.
He took out the forged spirit-injecting weapons in the corner of the room and handed them to Consul Zhao for inspection. Most of them were swords and weapons. Due to the large number, Consul Zhao specially called for a special person, who also had the cultivation level of Baihui Realm.
"Lao Lu, how are you?"
He pointed at the spirit-injecting weapons forged by Jingfeng.
"Four lower-grade spiritual weapons, three medium-grade spiritual weapons, and two high-grade spiritual weapons."
Consul Zhao couldn't help but look at Jingfeng with admiration. This guy was young, but he had a lot of secrets.
"Mr. Jing, will you sell all these spirit-infused weapons to our Chamber of Commerce?"
"Of course, the cost of materials used should also be included in the calculation."
"Okay! Give me the ID card I gave you earlier."
Consul Zhao took the ID card handed over by Jing Feng, then arranged for someone to take away all the spirit-injecting tools forged by Jing Feng, and then stood up to leave.
"Wait a minute, Miss Long Shengna said a few days ago that she would take me to your Chamber of Commerce headquarters. Is there any news?"
"I'll ask her for you later, probably within the next few days."
"Okay, I'm done."
Not long after, a waitress found Jingfeng and handed the card to him.
"Back to Mr. Jing, the Chamber of Commerce will purchase your spirit-infused weapon for auction. The proceeds from subsequent auctions will belong to the Chamber of Commerce. Thank you for your support."
"The four lower-grade spirit-infused weapons totaled 240 taels of silver, the three medium-grade spirit-infused weapons totaled 240 taels of silver, and the two high-grade spirit-infused weapons totaled 200 taels of silver. After deducting fine iron, jade and other materials, as well as the previous The remaining five hundred and eighty taels of silver from the materials inquiry fees have been deposited in your name and you can access them at any time."
"Thank you."
Jingfeng took the ID card and the waitress left.
Five hundred and eighty taels, plus the thirty taels that Ouyang Lian brought with him, it is six hundred and eleven taels!
Jingfeng was pacing in the backyard. It was unreal that he had so much money for the first time in the city.
Jingfeng felt that he had stayed in Qianlong Chamber of Commerce for a long time, so he wanted to go out for a walk.
The clouds were setting in the sky and solitary swans were flying together. It was almost dusk, and four days had passed since Jingfeng arrived in Yimu Town.
Although the sun is almost setting, the street market is still bustling with activity. Jingfeng's clothes had not been changed since he left home, and the blood stains and iron filings on them had long since dried.
So he went to the bathhouse to take a bath, and bought himself two new outfits. When he came out, his whole person seemed to be completely new.
Influenced by his mother Jing Jieying since childhood, Jingfeng is actually a frugal person. He did not throw away his original clothes, but washed them and used his true energy to steam out the water vapor and put them back on again.
In the evening, Jingfeng found a restaurant, chose a seat by the window, and drank wine facing the moon.
Jingfeng was already tall and handsome, and even though he was sitting in the corner, he was quite conspicuous. From time to time, young women with beautiful flowers would look at him secretly, and some of them would even whisper to him.
"You must drink fine wine and get drunk on the high platform by the moon."
Suddenly, a crisp and numb voice came to my ears: "Mr. Jing is so elegant."
Jingfeng was stunned when he heard this, and turned around to see a charming woman in a red dress with red lips and pink face.
"Miss Long?"
he said in disbelief.
On the contrary, Long Shengna raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression as usual.
"What, you're surprised to see me?"
"It's a bit...you actually come to a place like a restaurant."
“Occasionally I’m in a bad mood, and I want to have a few drinks to relieve my worries.”
She looked at Jingfeng with charming eyes and said, "It's a beautiful time at this beautiful time. Mr. Jing, won't you invite me to have a drink with you?"
Jingfeng was really afraid of this woman, so he looked away and said, "I'm really lucky that Miss Long is willing to reward me."
Long Shengna covered her mouth and chuckled, "You do know how to talk."
When the women around saw Long Shengna sitting opposite Jingfeng, they secretly called Long Shengna a prodigal. When the men saw Jingfeng chatting happily with Long Shengna, and making Long Shengna smile from time to time, they all felt sorry that their good cabbage was lost to pigs.
Of course, neither Jingfeng nor Long Shengna cared much about other people's gazes. The two of them exchanged glasses, as if they were friends of the opposite sex who had known each other for many years.
"Miss Long, may I ask how your affairs at the Chamber of Commerce branch are going?"
"There were some difficulties, but it wasn't a big problem."
"I see, then when do we set off?"
"Tomorrow afternoon, I'll go back tonight and let my servants step up preparations."
"Okay, if there is any place where I can be used, please don't refute my reputation, Miss Long."
Long Shengna was so amused by Jingfeng that she laughed and said in a soft voice: "Young Master Jing is really a handsome young man, and he cares so much about the slave family. How can I be willing to let Mr. Jing do his best for me?"
"One word from a beautiful woman can be a sea of swords, mountains of swords, and seas of fire, and I, Jingfeng, am willing to do so."
"Humph, you're a mouthful."
