The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 251: Abandoned by God (7)
Baruch and others at the same table had changed their expressions from "Is this okay?" to "Oh my god, this is also okay."
At this time, Kagel had already fast-forwarded to the stage of worshipping his half-brother with Ji Cheng. After the worship, he did not forget to immediately take on the responsibility of the eldest brother: "Brother... don't you want to customize weapons?... Tell me what kind you want!"
"Absolutely... hiccup... I guarantee you will be satisfied!!"
Because he had just deliberately lost to Kagel several times, Ji Cheng also drank a few glasses of strong liquor. However, this amount was not enough to make him drunk, and he was even a little short of getting drunk.
At this time, hearing Kagel's request, His Royal Highness immediately took out the blueprint.
Kagel took it - although he was already drunk, he was a famous weapon master after all, and he still had the ability to read the blueprint.
So after taking a look at the blueprint, Kager immediately said: "Ah, a sword-shaped weapon - although the size is a little small, it is not difficult to make -"
Then he saw Ji Cheng smiled and said: "I want to make a thousand." "Puff -"
The wine that Kager had just drunk was all sprayed out.
He instantly stood up from his semi-paralyzed posture, and seemed to be much sober: "What??"
"How many pieces??"
So Ji Cheng repeated patiently: "A thousand pieces."
"Or if it can be more, it would be better."
He also did not forget to slowly repeat Kager's previous words: "Didn't the eldest brother just say that you will take care of it?"
Kager: "..."
Kager: "…………"
Kager: "………………"
Is it too late to take back those words now?
In the end, Kager said with difficulty: "But a thousand pieces, it's really too many..."
It's not a question of whether he is willing to do it, but whether he can do it! !
Ji Cheng asked: "What about the others?"
"It is said that the dwarves are natural craftsmen. The production requirements of my flying swords are not high. I think if I hire more dwarf craftsmen, I can always finish them, right?"
At this point, Kagel was already half sober.
He looked up at Ji Cheng with embarrassment, and then said: "Your basic requirement is one thousand swords. Even if all the swordsmiths in our tribe work together, it will take at least three months to complete the production. But the cost-"
Kagel roughly calculated in his mind, and then reported a number.
Baruch and others beside him immediately stared: "-Robbery, right?"
Kagel glanced at them and spread his hands: "No way, Chen's requirements are so high."
He pulled the drawings handed over by Ji Cheng and looked at them carefully: "This kind of... uh, flying sword, although the difficulty of making is not high, but because of its small size and focus on sharpness, it is also a delicate job."
"And the materials you require, you also need to add mithril to the sword body," Kagel said, "The price I mentioned is conservative, and it is not easy to get such a large amount."
Clara turned her head to look at Ji Cheng-as the person who lent the space ring, she knew best how much money Ji Cheng robbed from Elmer.
However, a considerable part of Elmer's wealth is registered magic crystal cards, which are not easy to crack. If these things are slightly discounted, even the most favorable channels can not get the cash that can be exchanged for far less than the number proposed by Kagel.
It is only enough to pay a deposit, and the final payment is far from enough.
So now, what will Ji Cheng do?
Clara looked at him, and Ji Cheng did look thoughtful.
But after a moment, he smiled again: "I can't take out the money right away."
"But I have a better idea than paying cash directly. I wonder if the dwarves are interested."

Looking at the big iron block in front of them, Baruch and others couldn't help but fall into confusion.
"What is this?"
Ji Cheng introduced enthusiastically: "This is the result of my payment to the dwarves."
There were various protrusions on the big iron block. Baruch and others didn't quite understand what it was used for, but Ji Cheng quickly demonstrated it to them -
He first pressed one of the round protrusions painted red, and with a ding, a piece in the middle of the big iron block lit up. After a short and fancy animation, a group of gradually falling blocks suddenly appeared on the top of the screen!
Ji Cheng pressed another arrow-shaped button, and the position of the blocks changed accordingly.
And when the blocks fell to the bottom of the screen, another group of blocks appeared on the top.
Ji Cheng adjusted the direction of the blocks again with the arrow-shaped button, and soon the bottom of the screen was covered with a whole layer of blocks, and then this row of blocks flashed twice and disappeared.
At the same time, a set of score numbers appeared at the top of the screen.
Baruch and others were almost dumbfounded: "What??"
Ji Cheng handed the power to operate the "big iron block" to Clara: "Do you want to try it?"
Clara, who was an ultimate fan of Landlords before, had been eager to try it after understanding the rules. Now that she had the opportunity, she would definitely take the lead: "I'll do it!!"
And with the brain speed of a ninth-level peak magician, she did get a very high score.
After one round, Clara was still unsatisfied and wanted to play another round: "What kind of game is this? And what is this big iron box?"
Jicheng: "Tetris."
Clara: "?What is Russia?"
So Jicheng added: "Maybe you can call it the dwarf cube."
"As for this box, it's called a game console," Jicheng explained. "The one you have in your hand is a test product. There is only one game in it. If the effect is good, other games will be added later."
Clara's eyes immediately burst into astonishing light: "When can it be made! I'll go grab it then... ah no, buy one!"
"Wait a minute, you just said this is used to make payments to the dwarves?" She suddenly realized and asked.

Jicheng nodded and pointed to his head: "I'll come up with the idea, and they'll come up with the refining technology. Once it's on the market, the price will be split 50-50, and the early profits will be given to them as my weapon production fee."
"——The dwarves are natural craftsmen, but their status on the mainland has never been embarrassing. In addition to being inferior to humans in terms of force and population, most of the weapons they make are not available to magicians and civilians. of."
“So many times, they have to beg customers to come to them.”
"But if we have this -" Jicheng pointed in the direction of the game console and said with a smile, "I think this situation will change a little bit, right?"
Haven’t you seen the noble and cool (?) ninth-level powerhouses like Clara vying to buy it?
This wave, this wave directly turns the buyer's market into a seller's market.
No wonder the dwarves agreed without even thinking about it after hearing Jicheng's idea.
After listening to Jicheng's explanation, Clara, Baruch and others quickly figured out the joints and couldn't help but take a breath. Then Clara immediately blinked and showed a shy girlish expression: "Chen, it seems that we are quite friends. Just like when you were imprisoned by the Holy See of Light before, I personally ventured into the Holy City to rescue you."
"You see, we dark forces usually have a hard time making money. If we want to get rich, we have to take us with us -"
Jicheng: "..."
Hasn't Allen already opened a World of Warcraft farm?
"...For the sales of game consoles, can you go talk to the dwarves about being an agent?"
In the next second, Clara disappeared in front of Ji Cheng at the speed of light.
Jicheng: “…………”
That’s all.
——
After building a test product of a game console and taking it around to try it out, the dwarves were completely convinced by Jicheng, and of course they had no objections to his idea of paying off the weapon production fees with a share of the profits. When collecting materials and making Jicheng's flying sword, they put a lot of effort into it, and their efficiency became even higher.
Kagel previously said that it would take at least three months to build a thousand sword-type weapons of this kind - not to mention that the raw materials are usually provided by customers themselves, so the time for collecting raw materials was not included.
However, now that the cooperation has been finalized, and with the "half-brothers" relationship between Kagel and Jicheng, the dwarves have directly taken care of the matter of finding raw materials themselves, and the entire manufacturing efficiency is very fast, without discipline. Cheng Wen took the initiative to report the progress of the construction to Jicheng every day.
Judging from the speed of their report, this complete set of flying swords may be completed in more than two months.
While waiting for the dwarves to hand over, Jicheng and the others simply stayed in the dwarves' clan.
There is nothing to do in the dwarves all day long. Clara devotes almost all her time to the game console, while Baruch goes to drink with his dwarf friends every day - that day he saw Jicheng teaching the dwarves how to draw punches. I felt itchy when I was a child, and now it’s time to put it into practice.
Most of the others can find their own things to do, and no one finds it particularly boring anyway.
Jicheng, on the other hand, used this free time to carefully sort out his situation.
——Although I’m still not sure where the God’s Forsaken Mark on my forehead came from. When the Pope cursed himself with elements that day, he didn’t see who was behind it, but this doesn’t mean that Jicheng will give up looking for the light. Trouble with the Holy See.
Finding a dwarf to forge a sword is the first step. Once you get the weapon, you need to carefully plan who you will cause trouble first and who you will cause trouble the most.
Those who have a grudge against the original person, and may also be able to do tricks on Chen without being noticed, obviously have high abilities and positions, so people with the level of Bishop of the Holy See of Light and below can basically be excluded.
To be precise, it is impossible to be a bishop. The internal hierarchy of the Holy See of Light is clear: the Pope is supreme, a proper saint-level strong man, firmly sitting in the first position of power in the Holy See of Light, followed by cardinals, the weakest is also ninth level, most of them are stationed in the Holy See. Guarding the holy city, and then the archbishop, the top leader of each kingdom. At this level, the bishop can basically be in charge of provincial cities. In terms of strength, he can definitely beat the dust, but it is difficult for them to have the opportunity to contact people.
So Jicheng pulled and pulled, and finally through the process of elimination, he identified the most likely "enemy" - Reed.
This guy was the archbishop of the kingdom when Chen was out training. Unlike Chen, who was gentle, Reed had a cold personality, and his life style was quite exaggerated. The two of them couldn't talk together, and they often had conflicts of opinion. Relationships naturally suck.
Even according to unreliable news, before Reed came to this kingdom and was promoted to Archbishop, he had a big conflict with Chen's parents - a pair of great magicians and super nobles in the kingdom. But because Chen was sent to the Holy City shortly after he was born and had no contact with his parents, it is not clear whether this matter is true or false.
Strictly speaking, there is no deep hatred between Reed and Chen, but with his revengeful style, it is not surprising that he would specifically frame Chen again.
- Or even if it is wrong, it doesn't matter. Anyway, Jicheng will find trouble with the Holy See of Light next, so isn't it a good idea to deal with such a villain by the way?
After confirming the number one suspect, the next thing to do is to find out Reed's whereabouts.
