Gengxin City, known as the capital of metals, is not within the territory of the Tiandou Empire, but is located in the southwest of the Star Luo Empire, somewhat close to the inland area of ​​the Star Luo Empire.

There was no other reason why Yu Yuyi’s first stop was there. The main reason was that the number of talents developing soul guides in the Spark Mutual Aid Department had been increasing day by day with the graduation of the first batch of students of the newly established college. The demand from users and their The amount of reserves I need has gradually increased with the branches and bureaus established in various places.

It happened that the merchant who discussed the metal supply with the Spark Mutual Aid Bureau a few years ago was not here. After much thought, Yu Yuyi took the title and responsibility of the leader and went to Gengxin City, the capital of metal, to discuss the next quarter in person. To purchase, she would stop by there to see if there were any new soul tools that would interest her.

Of course, before that, Yu Yuyi also related the evolution of the Qibao Glazed Tile Pagoda to Qiluo Tulip. The Qibao Glazed Tile Sect would definitely hire him with great treasures and treat him respectfully as an elder of the sect. Brother Hong, who Hun casually calls weeds, treats him as a weed.

But the man who was lazy, looked decadent and sleepy, and had no energy in his whole body, after listening to Yu Yuyi tried his best to explain to him the major benefits of Daoming.

He stared at the girl for a long time, and finally didn't say anything despite Yu Yuyi's uneasy movements. He just stretched out his hand and vigorously ruffled the little leader's hair, and then yawned and returned to the security recliner where he sat to continue taking a nap. .

Yu Yuyi, who roughly understood her big brother's thoughts, smoothed her long hair angrily with a puffed face on the surface, but in her heart she still felt a little secretly happy about being favored by Brother Hong's choice.

Although there is a small piece of something called conscience in my heart that whispers that we should not restrict others from developing in a better place, sooner or later everyone will divide things because of different choices. But I have to admit that Yu Yuyi was very happy when she heard that Brother Hong refused to change jobs.

【We are family. 】

On the way to Gengxin City, Yu Yuyi still couldn't help but think of this sentence, which she said to each of them when she picked them up; and she felt sorry every time she asked them to take charge of related matters. , they responded to her…

【We are family, so...】

When parting, those warm or delicate big hands caressed Yu Yuyi's head and face. The faces of the family members she attracted still had the familiar look on her face - indulgent, gentle, tolerant, the only one. What remains unchanged is always a smile.

They all said together, [...you can be willful. Go and see what you want to see, Yiyi/little leader. 】

As the person who founded Xinghuo from scratch, Yu Yuyi, rather than running Xinghuo as a company or a sect that is indistinguishable from the local sect, she treats Xinghuo as a " Treat her as a "family", and those she cares about and care about her are her "family".

The bond between them is not tied to blood ties, just like the father-daughter relationship between her and her father is not tied to blood ties.

If I have to say it, it should be 'loneliness', 'companionship' and 'unconditional trust'.

When we arrived at Gengxin City, time had already jumped from winter to spring.

Along the way, Yu Yuyi witnessed the traces of melting ice and snow, and saw the first touch of green popping out of the trunks and branches of dead trees when spring came, and then the small animals waking up from hibernation, jumping instinctively to find an entrance. food.

Those scenery were destined to be invisible to her as she concentrated on cultivating her soul power, but it was not too late now.

Admiring the beautiful, vast, or desolate scenery along the way, Yu Yuyi arrived at the expected destination in a state of great physical and mental pleasure.

Gengxin City has a temperament that matches its nickname of "Metal City".

In front of the city gate made of fine iron, the knight who asked for identification at the city gate identified his identity. As soon as he stepped through the city wall and gate, he was hit by the strong smell of metal.

It was an indescribable smell, not unpleasant but not pleasant either. Anyway, it will make people think of the tinkling blacksmith shop when they smell this smell.

Speaking of which, the last time she went to the blacksmith shop was in Notting City.

At that time, she, Xiao Wu, and her mistress were all still looking like little carrot heads. It's a pity that I didn't have any gold soul coins at my disposal. Otherwise, it would have been so much fun to record the cute little faces of the two childhood sweethearts with a photo stone.

Yu Yuyi, who regretted that she had not thought of this before, wandered to a blacksmith shop.

It was an ordinary-looking blacksmith shop, with nothing worth mentioning. Just like nine out of ten blacksmith shops in Gengxin City, the walls made of huge stones isolated the heat of the fire and metal inside. . The door to the door was open, and there was only a brown cloth strip hanging on the door curtain, with the word "iron" written on it, which clearly showed what this store did.

Yu Yuyi didn't know why she stopped in front of this shop, but she didn't care about which blacksmith shop it was, whether it was good or bad, experienced or new, all she cared about was the blacksmith in the shop of ingenuity.

The blacksmith shop inside the door is the same as anywhere else. Forged weapons, armor, or agricultural tools are hung or placed on the walls on both sides. Below is a brief introduction and price description, and the most important thing - —The forger is the level of the blacksmith.

The things here are not of the highest quality. Most of the people who forge farm tools are junior and intermediate blacksmiths, and there are few senior blacksmiths. The people who forge weapons are senior blacksmiths and master blacksmiths. The only armor that can be considered a treasure of the shop is made by the master blacksmith. It's forged, but there's nothing special about it.

The quality and materials are of the highest quality, and the protective effect is probably of the highest quality. Not to mention that this is a light metal armor, and it is estimated that people can move freely when wearing it.

But... it's a pity that in Yu Yuyi's opinion, this is something that is mass-produced using ancient methods with no new ideas. Even if everything is top-notch, it can only be classified as average to her.

She did not stay in one blacksmith shop for long. In the next few days, she went to various blacksmith shops and found interesting items regardless of whether they were forged by experienced hands or novices. She bought them all according to her heart.

After news spread everywhere in Gengxin City that a stupid girl with a lot of money came to Gengxin City to spread money, Yu Yuyi stopped her aimless wandering.

She has a lot of money, and she is happy to spend a lot of money to buy something she likes. But now it seems that the blacksmiths in Gengxin City say that they have inherited the craftsmanship, and they have inherited the craftsmanship from their masters; but that they have no new ideas and can only be stuck in the status quo and think they are safe. at the status quo.

Although their skills are so superb that they can rival the attack and defense of level 50 soul masters, they have no new ideas or new creativity. These blacksmiths, who are mass-produced like assembly lines, are not the talents Yu Yuyi wants, nor are they the ideas she wants.

Knowing that it was difficult to find anything that suited her liking, and that most of the items were deliberately placed by others to deceive outsiders in order to deceive her money, Yu Yuyi gave up fishing for phoenixes and dragons, and found a treasure hidden in the sea. idea.

When she formally met with the senior personnel of Gengxin City who had previously contacted Spark, Yu Yuyi could clearly see the apology on the face of the person opposite.

According to him, the reason why he did not go to Xinghuo to discuss metal purchases for the next quarter this time was not for other reasons, but mainly because of himself.

He is a merchant in Gengxin City, but he is also a master blacksmith in Gengxin City.

The last time he was preparing to travel, his master happened to be making a fuss about going together to see the soul tools sold by Spark. His master was worried about his health and worried that his master would be too addicted to the new weapons there. The research on the soul guide device was very busy, so he worked hard to deal with the matters at hand, intending to finish the trivial matters as soon as possible, and took his master to go to Xinghuo to have a look.

Knowing that there were two masters with a higher level of grandmaster, almost equivalent to master craftsmen, who were going to Xinghuo, Yu Yuyi thought for a while, and then handed over the many jade tokens on hand that were used to contact most of the upper-level personnel of Xinghuo to the hands of the collaborators , let it be handed over to the master and master.

"...Although the bustling world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle is for profit. But I think we, Xinghuo and the Gengxin City Blacksmith Association can make an agreement on peaceful exchanges, not for anything else, but for the sake of going. In the future, the two sides can send personnel to each other to communicate and learn from each other. But this time, the relevant personnel on the jade plaque will come to contact you about your teacher and master's schedule."

"In this way, you no longer have to worry about the safety of the two elders all the time. If necessary, you can contact the two elders in real time just by injecting soul power into the jade plaque."

The collaborator happily accepted the offer. He had always been clumsy, and his ability to act as Gengxin City's external trader was due to his sincerity, which enabled him to forge good relationships one after another. Now, having received such a verbal agreement from Yu Yuyi, it was like a gift from heaven, so that he could only say out words in the end: "Thank you."

After negotiating with her collaborators about purchasing for the next quarter, which was at least 50% cheaper, Yu Yuyi did not leave directly. But in order to fulfill the agreement she made verbally, she waited until the relevant personnel took care of everything and brought Kong Yuyu's people here to formally sign the agreement before leaving.

It took almost a year. When Yu Yuyi stayed in Gengxin City due to responsibilities, he did not waste time. She meditates to practice her soul power at night, and during the day she communicates with her collaborator's teacher Silong to learn some ingenuity in blacksmithing that is different from soul guidance tools. Of course, she also shared with the blacksmith her experience in carving formations for soul guidance tools. Grandmaster listens.

Often after she shared her thoughts, the next day, her collaborator's wayward master, Master Silong, his respected genius teacher, would appear in front of her very rarely, sometimes listening to her thoughts, and sometimes chatting with her. After some arguments, sometimes the old man would yell at Yu Yuyi because of her misunderstanding and improper application of blacksmith-related knowledge.

This old man, who is rumored to have the same status as the Pope of Wuhun Palace, is almost all the blacksmith masters or higher-level masters in Gengxin City - Lou Gao. In Yu Yuyi's view, he is someone who can argue with her about the correctness of theories. , an old kid who makes a fuss over who is right and who is wrong.

Often after Yu Yuyi's whimsical ideas are verified, this old kid will not be stubborn at all. He will apologize quickly and honestly, and then decisively hold the verified object and plunge into a new round of research. among.

It really makes people neither cry nor laugh.

Anyway, after the trivial matters related to the agreement were resolved in the past year, Yu Yuyi decisively left a letter and slipped away with her head full of new knowledge.

It wasn't that he didn't want to say goodbye to Lou Gao, it was just that he was extremely irritable when he was stuck in a research dilemma.

Yu Yuyi, who had been quarreling with this man for nearly a year and really didn't want to quarrel anymore, naturally took advantage of this rare opportunity to run away quickly.

Before leaving, the collaborator and Master Silong, who happened to be free, went to the city gate to see her off.

The two men were in their forties at least. Perhaps it was rare to see their juniors, or they were juniors who had communicated and argued with their teachers/grandmasters across generations without giving in. They felt a little sad when seeing others off.

But more than being sad, I was full of wanting to explain how Yu Yuyi was careful along the way, how to report that she was safe, and how to not worry them about the little things.

If it weren't for these two people holding Yu Yuyi's shoulders with one hand and wiping away tears, and rubbing Yu Yuyi's hair with the other, with fatherly worries in their eyes, Yu Yuyi would have run away long ago.

Yiyi: I really want to escape, but I can’t escape because I’m being held down! QvQ Obviously my father can’t say that!

Although she was very sad about what happened to offend her old father's physique and wanted to run away immediately, Yiyi was still in love with the two elders, one of whom had children and the other had just started a family. It was learned that his wife was just pregnant ( quasi) The old father listened to the entire tirade in his eyes.

In order to repay their hard work, Yu Yuyi wrote a letter about the current situation he had observed in Gengxin City in the past year and some solutions to the resettlement and handed it to Master Silong.

The letter contained nothing more than the current situation of some blacksmiths. Although the status of blacksmiths in Gengxin City has improved compared to other places, in the final analysis, their status is still embarrassing in comparison with soul masters. But now, not only the blacksmiths in Gengxin City are confused by the current situation, but even the blacksmiths outside Gengxin City seem to be muddle along.

But they don't know that even if they look like they have nothing to ask for, their craftsmanship, as well as the state and level they can reach, still make them like children in the busy city with a lot of money.

Countless wolves covet their craftsmanship and the forged weapons and protective gear in their hands, but they themselves are completely unaware and have no sense of crisis.

——Wuhundian is the largest and most ferocious jackal among them.

They need to be very careful.
