Lord of War

Old Kui'an joined the Principality of the Void, which is a good thing for both the Principality of the Void and Old Kui'an.

The inheritance of forging skills is not just something to talk about casually. If such a highly professional term can be used, then this inheritance must at least be handed down from the chaotic era. In that war-torn era, enchanted weapons were produced in batches just like ordinary weapons today. Basically, even ordinary soldiers could use bronze enchanted weapons.

However, with the end of the chaotic era and the stability of the continent's power structure, all kinds of precious resources have been exhausted one by one. Therefore, in addition to the problem of craftsmanship, there is also the problem of raw materials in the manufacture of magic equipment. Even if it is to make a bronze magic weapon, at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold coins are needed, and this is only the cost price. Sean spent some energy and time before making it for the Pangea Chamber of Commerce Alliance He bought a gold-grade magic weapon, of course he asked for three times the ingredients.

This is very normal for an alchemy blacksmith: no alchemy blacksmith can guarantee to forge a magical weapon at a time - except for Sean.

So actually, Sean snatched up two other pieces of enchanted equipment that were enough to make gold grades. It's just that he didn't use these equipment to make gold-grade demonized equipment, but handed them over to Kaidi and the others to practice, and produced a batch of bronze and silver-grade demonized equipment, which can be regarded as completing the capital accumulation of the Void Principality in the early stage. Later, after selling these demonized equipment to the Pangea Chamber of Commerce Alliance, they had the first start-up funds for purchasing demonized equipment.

However, after the Pancontinental Chamber of Commerce turned its face, Sean's current forging materials for demonized equipment are mainly purchased from the barren land. Even if it is purchased from other territories or chambers of commerce that have not joined the chamber of commerce alliance. Because of the distance and transit, the price is also much more expensive. In this way, the profit that can be earned is not too high. After all, the magic equipment produced by the Void Principality is not very high-quality. You can always find substitutes made by other alchemy blacksmiths on the mainland, but they do not have the high output of the Duchy of the Void and a stable output of two to three pieces per month.

It's just that these are all based on stable material purchases. If there is no source of these materials, then even if Xiao En builds a large-scale forging team, there is nothing he can do. And now, due to the limitation of materials, it is very difficult for the Principality of the Void to forge magic equipment above the silver level. The highest quality is only a powerful bronze-level magic weapon. Although the selling price cannot be higher than that of silver, but if it is sold by the Void Principality itself, then there is no need to pay commissions or intermediary fees to others. The pricing is also completely decided by the Void Principality itself.

There is nothing more lucrative than the sale of enchanted equipment, even the exclusive equipment for magicians and various alchemy potions and magic potions.

Sean wrote a letter to Old Qui'an, asking him to take it to Neil in Void City, and Neil will arrange the rest.

No one knows better than Neil, who is in charge of the entire territory's government affairs, how constrained the Void Principality is in terms of economy. Although Old Kui'an's joining will not bring any benefits to the Void Principality for the time being, but will pay for his next practice, but in terms of long-term benefits, Old Kui'an has played a significant role in the future of the entire Void Principality. of great importance.

As long as there is a stable material purchase channel, the Duchy of the Void will be able to produce two goldsmiths in the future.

Now the entire Miracle Continent. There are no more than thirty craftsmen who can create gold-grade magic equipment—after all, this is a real world, not a game. In the later stage of the game, as long as players who practice the sub-job of blacksmith have enough materials,

Rushing to the level of a goldsmith is not a problem at all.

Old Kui'an quickly finished packing his things. He only left two people in this blacksmith shop, and he took away the other apprentices.

Of these two people, one is his grandson Xiao Kui'an. One is the middle-aged man who came to the front desk to be in charge of the cash register.

Old Kui'an's blacksmith shop had taken root in Roma City for a long time, and at this time, Old Kui'an suddenly left with a group of apprentices. Naturally, it has attracted a certain degree of attention. After all, one-seventh of the commercial tax in Roma City is supported by the old Kuian blacksmith shop, which can be regarded as a considerable fortune for any city lord. No one gives up easily. But without a legitimate reason, you can't detain the other party, especially if Old Kui'an is going to Void City.

Now in the noble circle of the entire Ryan Kingdom, the Duchy of the Void gives them the impression that it is like a monster. No one knows when this monster will violently hurt people.

Money is important, but there is another prerequisite for this, that is, life is spent.

If you lose your life, what do you need so much money for?

For this point, Sean saw it clearly than anyone else, so he didn't help Old Kui'an out of the siege. He believed that since Old Kui'an had been able to stand in Roma City for so many years, and even the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance hadn't benefited from it, he must have his own extraordinary means.

So Xiao En still stayed in the blacksmith shop, chatting with Little Kui'an.

However, Xiao Kui'an obviously seemed a little cautious. After all, he didn't know Sean's identity before, so he didn't care. that attitude.

Xiao En sighed helplessly in his heart: After all, he is not the person who founded the country with him, and there is no way to maintain a normal mentality.

In fact, with Sean's current status and identity, there are still a series of feats of founding the country. In addition to those followers who laid the foundation with Sean today, even the Wild Legion or the Wild Federation who came to vote later It is impossible for those people to maintain an equal mentality with Sean. And even these people can't do it, let alone the nobles of the Ryan Kingdom and Little Kui'an who can't even be considered a squire.

For a while, Xiao En lost interest. He knew that staying here would only make Little Kui'an and that apprentice more uncomfortable.

"By the way, do you know a man named Hercules?" Sean thought for a while, but decided to find an excuse to leave.

Bess just said that Hercules is in the Roma grassland area, but the area around here is very vast, and it doesn't mean that he can find it immediately, so he just asked casually, planning to use this as an excuse to leave here. The reason why he came to Roma City was purely to accept the task of the Bronze Body. Once the mission was received, he would leave here soon and did not intend to stay here in Roma City.

"Heracles?" Little Kui'an frowned and thought for a while, "There seem to be two or three people with this name in Roma City, can you explain more clearly?"

Hearing Xiao Kui'an's words, Sean was stunned for a moment, wouldn't he let his blind cat meet a dead mouse?

So, Xiao En didn't care about what to say, and immediately opened his mouth to describe the image characteristics of Hercules in his memory.

"Oh, there is really such a person in Roma City." Little Kui'an clapped his hands suddenly, "That boy always has an old man's tone and attitude, and he lives in the Dongcheng District, where there are rich people I don't know where this young man got so much money, maybe it was left over from Zu.... But I heard that the city lord wanted to trouble him before, and it seemed that he wanted to blackmail him, but I didn't know later What's going on, this matter will be over, and few people in the city dare to provoke him now."

Hearing Xiao Kui'an's words, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck Xiao En's mind at this moment.

At this moment, he finally remembered why he felt Hercules looked so familiar!

This Hercules is the one who started the sanctuary mission!

Back in the game, players in the Southern Continent basically wanted to start sanctuary missions from Hercules. It's just that he is just a quest starter, as long as he completes a small quest he assigns, he will ask the player to find the four ascetic monks, and it is only at this point that the quest of the bronze body has really started. So Sean remembered the four ascetic monks and the beginning of the mission, but he just didn't remember Hercules.

Who's going to remember a character who's just playing tricks?

During the entire sanctuary mission, Hercules only appeared once at the beginning, and there was nothing related to him after that.

But looking at it now, it was obvious that this Hercules was not simple.

Being able to make Bess feel troublesome, and also being the one who started the mission of the sanctuary, these points alone are enough to prove the strength of Hercules.

Sean didn't intend to stay here any longer. He quickly said goodbye to Little Kui'an, then got up and walked towards Dongcheng District. As for the residence of Hercules, since Sean has already remembered it, then he knows where the other party lives. Originally, this is one of his tasks. If he does not know, then he is really in vain. Been playing this game for so many years.

Not long after, Sean came to Hercules' residence.

This is an independent courtyard.

It can be seen that the rich in Roma City still enjoy life. There are a total of 20 independent courtyards on this street, and it is not a problem for two or three hundred people to live in each courtyard. But this is not the focus of Xiao En's attention. He noticed that these courtyards have their own private guards. Although the number of them does not seem to be many, these people are all at the level of high-ranking bronze, and a few of them are low-ranking silver, which is almost unbearable. It has more background than the average viscount family.

Could it be that the people who live here are all nobles of Ryan?

Otherwise, how could the Earl of Roma allow these people to have private guards in their own city?

However, Xiao En only glanced at it briefly. With his current level of strength, even if all these people fight together, they will not be his opponents. So he directly knocked on Hercules' courtyard gate, and then said, "Master Hercules, are you there?" (To be continued...)

ps: Because something happened temporarily today, it may not break out, I am sorry, I will fight for four more compensation.
