Chapter 152 Making a Magic Sword
This man has such a strong spirituality!
This person must have practiced the method of strengthening the nine orifices, otherwise it would be impossible for his body to be so spiritually powerful.

The old man in a black mantle shrank his pupils and adjusted his glasses as if inadvertently.

As a result, there was a flash of brilliance in his glasses, which was very hidden.

As a result, in the eyes of the old man in mandarin jacket, the observation of Qin Jian became clearer.

hiss!
The old man in the mandarin jacket secretly took a breath of air.

At this time, through the treasure glasses, he could see that Qin Jian's body was composed of thick lines of spiritual energy.

This spiritual energy thread is extremely thick. Compared with ordinary people, it is more than twice as thick.

This person's method of strengthening the Nine Apertures has become so powerful?
The old man in mandarin jacket was surprised, and his heart was extremely shocked.

The method of strengthening the Nine Apertures seems to have its limits, right?There are really people who can cultivate to this level.

For a moment, the old man in mandarin felt that what he saw was beyond his understanding.

The achievements of the man in front of him in the method of strengthening the Nine Apertures have far exceeded the limit that ordinary people can achieve.

This is amazing.

"Boss, can you make a magic sword?"

Qin Jianruo was unaware and saw that the old man in the mandarin jacket was distracted, so he immediately asked.

"Okay, your guest wants to make a magical sword?"

The old man in the mandarin jacket came to his senses and greeted Qin Jian with a smile.

"I wonder what level of magical sword your guest wants to make?"

Qin Jian was unsure about what level of magic sword to make. After thinking about it, he said sincerely: "I don't know much about magic swords. Can you introduce it to me?"

"Our store will find a way to meet the requirements of our distinguished guests."

The smile on the old man's mantle did not diminish, and he adjusted his glasses inadvertently.

At this time, the brilliance in his glasses disappeared and returned to the appearance of ordinary glasses.

This person's glasses are a rare treasure that has the power of penetration and can see through things that ordinary people cannot discover, such as the strong spirituality just discovered from Qin Jian.

However, these glasses also have a flaw, that is, they cannot be viewed for a long time. Otherwise, as long as the viewing time exceeds 1 minute, the burning spiritual power released from the glasses will burn the user's eyes.

Therefore, after the old man in the mandarin jacket saw through the spirituality in Qin Jian's body, he immediately turned off the power of his glasses.

Someone who was interested in striking up a conversation said, "The distinguished guest looks unfamiliar, he must be new here, right?"

Seeing Qin Jian nodding, the old man in the mandarin jacket laughed and said enthusiastically: "In this case, I have to give you some advice. For new Taoist practitioners, our store usually recommends using the elementary magic sword. .”

"Although the level of the magic sword determines the final power of the magic sword, for Taoists who have just entered the training stage, using high-level magic swords is a complete waste. Not only can they not exert the power of the magic sword, but they also Because the level of the magic sword is too high, it will limit the performance of one's own strength."

"The elementary magic sword is completely enough."

This is similar to what I know.

Qin Jian nodded secretly and continued to ask: "What is the price of a primary magic sword?"

The old man in the mandarin jacket said diligently: "The price of the magic sword is determined by the materials used in the magic sword, the magic circle engraved on it when making the magic sword, and the craftsmanship of the magic sword."

"Generally, the production price of an ordinary level primary magic sword is about two hundred spirit coins, and the production price of an intermediate level primary magic sword is about three hundred spirit coins. Of course, the production price of the highest level primary magic sword is There are some that cost more than a thousand spirit coins."

The price of magic sword is not low.

When Qin Jian heard this, he sighed secretly, remembering what Lin Xuanyi told him about being cheated in this shop, and immediately lowered the price of the magic sword to one-third of the original price.

Looking at it this way, the average level is about seventy spirit coins.

At the intermediate level, there are about a hundred pieces.

As for the highest-level magic sword, even at one-third of the price, it would cost [-] spirit coins.

Considering Qin Jian's wealth at this time, it was obviously not cost-effective to buy the highest level magic sword.

After all, he had to buy other supplies.

"What does the intermediate-level primary magic sword look like? Can you take it out for me to take a look at?"

Qin Jian made a request.

The old man in a mandarin jacket immediately burst into laughter, "It turns out that our distinguished guest wants an intermediate-level elementary magic sword. Wait a moment, and let me go in and take out the production materials and show them to our honored guest."

Qin Jian nodded without any objection.

The old man in a mandarin jacket said something to Qin Jian about being with him, and then walked in through a corner door.

Behind the corner door is a large room.

This is obviously a warehouse. There are shelves one after another in the warehouse. On the shelves, there are sword blanks that have been made in advance.

The sword blank has different colors and shapes, obviously the materials and processing techniques used are different.

And in this warehouse, at this time, there is a 22-year-old man who looks quite mature, holding a carving knife, and is carving a log in his hand into a magic sword bit by bit. look like.

Hearing the sound of the old man in a mandarin jacket walking in, the mature-looking young man put down his work and slowly raised his head.

His eyes swept over the old man in the mandarin jacket and asked casually: "Dad, are there any customers coming to your door again?"

The old man in the mandarin jacket nodded in response, "Looking familiar, he should be the same as the sword maker before. He is new here."

"Ha ha!"

When the young man heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said happily: "I have another chance to kill the fat sheep. Dad, the money earned this time should be given to me, right? I have asked you for it several times. I always don’t give out my pocket money. I don’t spend it randomly, but I buy medicine for my cultivation. Dad, you are too stingy.”

As he said this, the young man couldn't help but complain.

This person is also a Taoist practitioner and is currently practicing Taoism at the Municipal Taoist Association.

However, this person's qualifications are average, so his Taoist practice is quite ordinary.

Unwilling to be ordinary, he has asked the old man for spiritual coins several times, hoping to buy medicine and borrow it to increase his cultivation speed.

How could an old man who was well aware of the side effects of drugs agree to his son's request?
But he did not firmly reject his son.

Precisely because the old man's refusal was not firm, the mature young man found it interesting and kept asking for it again and again.

"no!"

This time, unexpectedly, the old man in mandarin jacket firmly rejected his son's request.

"Dad, why did you say it last time and didn't mean it again?"

The mature young man stopped what he was doing and looked at the old man in the mantle unhappily, with a resentful expression on his face.

Although he knew that his father rarely kept his word, he still couldn't help complaining after being deceived again and again.

The old man in the jacket still had a smile on his face, and he responded to his son without any anger, "Hehe, son, Dad said no, it's not that he doesn't want to give you money, but because of this business, Dad has no intention of making money."

"You don't plan to make money? Don't you? Dad, have you changed your gender?"

The mature young man was surprised and looked at the old man in the mandarin jacket as if he were a stranger.You just changed your gender!

The old man in a mandarin jacket glared at his son with a sullen face.

What do children know?
This is called investment. Do you understand investment?
He thought about the strong spirituality he just saw from Qin Jian.

The expression of the old man in mandarin jacket suddenly became serious.

Someone who can cultivate the method of strengthening the Nine Apertures to such an extent is worthy of his own investment, right?
In other words, such a person's future achievements will definitely not be low.

The old man in the jacket did not make this decision casually.

He has been operating here for many years and has seen hundreds, if not thousands, of talented people.

However, among those people, even the most talented group of people in the early stage of forging the body did not have half as much spirituality as Qin Jian.

However, many of these people in the Taoist Association have become giants at this time.Some people even entered the provincial council and became important figures in the provincial council.

Just imagine, a person whose potential is twice as high as those who have become provincial and provincial giants, how high will his future achievements be?

The old man in mandarin couldn't help but hum a cheerful ditty, as if he had seen his investment take effect.

Is my dad out of his mind?
The mature young man looked at his old father who was humming a tune inexplicably, with a look of suspicion on his face.

"Dear guest, these are the various materials used to make an intermediate-level primary magic sword. You see, this piece is ten-year-old Lingxi wood. The cost of this piece of material alone is as high as two hundred spiritual coins."

"This piece is 15-year-old hibiscus wood, and the material cost is as high as 210 spirit coins."

"And this one..."

The old man in a mandarin jacket introduced the materials of the magic sword to Qin Jian one by one.

All these materials have been made into sword blanks.

Qin Jian read each piece one by one, and even reached out to pick it up, feeling the rich spirituality in the material.

The old man in the mantle must not have deceived himself. Each of these materials is of extraordinary quality. If it is made into an intermediate-level primary magic sword, it should be more than enough to bring out all of his current strength.

"Dear guest, there are magic formations. Different magic formations have different powers. For example, the fire formation can enhance the power of fire-based exercises. For example, the water formation can enhance the power of water-based exercises. There are also electric types, which can Enhance the power of electric exercises."

"Different magic circles have different engraving difficulties, so the prices are also different. In the case of fire formations, the price of engraving on the sword blank, depending on the material, is about fifty spirit coins to seventy spirit coins. .”

"There are also some auxiliary materials. Since this is your first time to the store, the store will waive those auxiliary materials for you. We will only charge you the price of the sword blank materials and the price of the engraving."

Qin Jian's expression was calm. Hearing this, his eyes slowly swept over the old man in the jacket.

The old man's words did not excite him in any way.

After all, Senior Brother Lin said personally that this store would kill new people when they met, and would exaggerate the prices of various materials and processes. Therefore, he did not take the old man's words seriously at all.

At this time, the old man in mandarin jacket said again: "If your guest is satisfied, please choose a material and then choose which type of formation you need. Please remind your guest that the type of formation you choose should be the same as your own practice. It’s about the type.”

Qin Jian nodded.

The technique he practiced was the fire spirit body.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the magic sword needs to choose the fire formation.

His eyes swept over the sword blank one by one. Finally, Qin Jian's eyes fell on a piece of 13-year-old purple wood.

The wood has a purple color throughout, and its appearance gives people a sense of luxury. In addition, this material is fire-friendly, so it is most suitable for fire arrays.

For practitioners of fire-based exercises, this kind of vermilion wood is the best choice.

"Just this piece of red purple wood. As for the formation, I want the fire formation."

After Qin Jian finished his selection, he picked up the sword blank made of vermilion wood and waved it. He felt that the weight was just right. He looked at the old man in the mantle with satisfaction, "Boss, tell me a price. How much do these materials cost in total?"

The smile on the old man's mantle did not diminish, "The sword blank of 13-year-old purple wood, not counting the processing fee, costs 210 spirit coins. The engraving fee for the fire array is 67 spirit coins. Other processing fees and auxiliary material costs, I won’t calculate it for you, I’ll just charge you the cost price, and the processing fees will be waived as well.”

"So, distinguished guest, just give me a total of 270 eight spiritual coins."

270 eight, one-third of 270 eight, is 92.67. Well, let’s consider it 93.

Thoughts flashed through Qin Jian's mind quickly, and he quickly completed the mental calculation. He calmly said to the old man in the mantle, "93 pieces."

"93...pieces?"

Cold sweat started to flow from the forehead of the old man in mandarin jacket on the spot.

This bargaining price is too harsh.

I had already paid the cost price, and even the processing fee was not confiscated, but it was directly cut to one-third.

"Guest."

The old man in mandarin jacket looked at Qin Jian with a sad look on his face, "What the shop gives to the distinguished customers is already the cost price, and even the processing fee is not confiscated. It can't be any more favorable. 270 eight pieces, in fact, you can't lose a penny, so let's do this , if the distinguished customer does not have enough money, I will think of a way to use a piece of vermilion wood from the materials saved by the previous store to make a sword blank for the distinguished guest. In terms of price, I can save some more, two hundred and sixty, and the store will charge the distinguished guest in total. 260 spirit coins, right?"

Ha ha!

Qin Jian smiled secretly.

Sure enough, Senior Brother Lin was right, this store was indeed quite a scam.

"Seven."

Qin Jian insisted on the price and refused to relax.

"Ah...this..."

The face of the old man in mandarin jacket looked even more sad.

From Qin Jian's attitude, he realized that this young man probably insisted on the price of 93 pieces and refused to go any higher.

How to do?
Continue to maintain the original price, or sell 93 pieces to the other party based on the other party's wishes?

However, if he really sells 93 coins to the other party, will he suffer a big loss?

"If you don't want to, forget it!"

Qin Jian pretended to leave.

As a result, the old man in the jacket saw that Qin Jian turned around in a hurry, and hurriedly grabbed Qin Jian, "Honest, my honored guest, let me think about it again."

Qin Jian stopped and turned back to look at the old man in mandarin jacket playfully.

The old man in the mantle was deep in thought, and after a moment, he gritted his teeth.

Now that you have decided to sell favors, why not sell more?
You know, if you let the other person go at this time, all the efforts you just made will be in vain.

"Just as a distinguished customer, just 93 coins, just treat it as a small shop and make friends with the distinguished customer."

Having figured it out, the old man in the mandarin jacket laughed again.

If you can really use two hundred spirit coins to make friends with Taoists with such great potential, then why don't you just earn it yourself?

After all, when the other party becomes stronger in the future, even if you beg to give it to the other party, it’s up to you whether they are willing to accept it or not.
