Douluo: What if Bibi Dong has a problem?

Chapter 25 The Blacksmith Association
"Do you still have research on metal ores?" Qingyuan looked at the dozens of different types of metal ores and finished metal ingots on the stall with doubts on her face, and subconsciously asked Guang, who looked confident in front of the stall, in a low voice.

The stall owner didn't care when he looked at Guang and Qingyuan. It seemed that a noble lady from out of town was taking the young master out to gain experience and have some interest in buying these metals that were not selling well.

"These metals in front of you."

"Ah."

"Except for this piece of fine iron and that piece of heavy silver, I don't even know what their names are." Guang spread his hands with an innocent face, joking about how he knew the properties and names of metals in this world. Even fine iron and heavy silver were also because of him. I have used it a lot in the laboratory to get this clear.

Fine iron has good basic parameters and can be repeatedly forged to enhance its quality. Heavy silver can increase the conductivity of soul power. The two forged and enchanted products are basic soul-guiding alloys, the most basic raw materials for grimoires.

"Then why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here?" Qingyuan rolled her eyes. She thought she just knew everything, but she didn't expect that there would be times when she didn't know.

"I don't know him, but it doesn't stop me from picking up the leaks." Guang shook his head, reached out and grabbed a piece of raw metal ore and asked the dozing boss, "Boss, how much does this piece of metal cost?"

"This metal mine is very precious. It is mined from the famous Myrdal mine." Looking at the large and small children in rich clothes, the boss rolled his shrewd eyes and began to explain habitually. .

"Uncle, I don't understand what you are talking about? How much does this piece of metal cost?" Guang waved his hands in boredom. He didn't want to listen to these boring things that were true or false.

"3 gold soul coins." The boss hesitated before speaking.

"Deal." Guang took out three gold soul coins from the storage soul guide and handed them over, put the metal ore in, and picked up another piece of metal ore of about the same size, "How much does this one cost?"

Looking at the storage soul guide in Guang's hand and the neatness with which he paid, the boss couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. Damn it, the 10 times price quoted just now was too low, but fortunately, this young master was obviously stupid and had a lot of money.

"This one is more expensive, 5 gold soul coins."

"Then I don't want it." Guang put the metal ore to the side and picked up another piece of metal ore that was twice the size and asked, "How much does this piece cost?"

Looking at at least dozens of kilograms of metal ore in Guang's hands, the boss was stunned for a moment. Is the young master from a noble family so strong?But thinking of the gold soul coins, he subconsciously ignored these unimportant things and replied, "This one is bigger, it costs 7 gold soul coins."

. . .

"8 gold soul coins."

. . .

"5 gold soul coins."

. . .

"3 gold soul coins." Looking at the metal mine owner who was rejected one after another, his face was slightly distorted, and he had no choice but to slowly start to lower the price.

"No, where's the biggest one?"

"Six gold soul coins cannot be less. How about this little brother? The original price of these metal ores is 6 gold soul coins. I look familiar. How about I give you the cost price of 34 gold soul coins?"

"Not at all." Guang shook his head, he was not stupid.

"Brother, how many gold soul coins do you think is appropriate?" the boss asked relentlessly.

"I think it would be more appropriate for someone else to talk to you." Guang waved to the distance, "Miles, come here."

Miles?The boss, whose name seemed familiar, turned around and saw the familiar orange-skinned face, and his expression changed greatly. Isn't this the chief priest of the Wuhun Lord Hall who never gives money when he buys things?

"Your Highness, what can I do for you?" Miles ran over all the way. He just saw that he was somewhat famous in the Blacksmiths Association, so he didn't take him with him when he picked up the leak.

"You come to buy this pile of raw metal ore and the largest piece of raw metal ore."

"Okay, Your Highness, no problem, I promise it won't cost you a copper soul coin." Miles replied very confidently when it came to his old profession.

"Who told you not to spend money?" Guang shook his head and put these metal ores into the storage soul guide.

"Your Highness, are you afraid of the negative impact? That doesn't matter. I will pay him the lowest price in the market." Miles nodded quickly after reacting. The people above him are all very particular people, so why would they buy something without paying for it?

"What the heck, the boss of this pile of metal mines wants 37 gold soul coins from me, so you have to ask him to find 37 gold soul coins. Of course, you can keep the gold soul coins you find yourself, you don't need to give them to me. "

"Ah!?" Miles, Qingyuan and the boss opposite opened their eyes.

"What's wrong, do you want me to support you in this matter?"

"No, Your Highness, I have never seen anyone act as impartially as you." Miles looked happy, he liked this so much.

"No, officiant Miles, I really didn't know those two were from the Spirit Hall, and my uncle is Grandmaster Si Kai. Otherwise, we should all take a step back." The boss was confused and thought he could make a lot of money. Who knew he would end up attracting the vicious dog Miles?

"Now you know, you have to pay not even a penny less!" Myers stood straight and proud, joking. With His Highness's support today, even the president of the Blacksmiths Association would be useless.

----------

Arranging for Miles to stay and argue with the boss, Guang pulled Qing Yuan to the second floor.

"Tsk, tsk, this profiteer boss has been unlucky for eight lifetimes, and he actually wants to take advantage of a little scoundrel like you." Qingyuan smiled, "By the way, what are those metal mines used for?"

"I really don't know, I just know that they are the best batch of metal ores in that stall, by other means."

"Treasure appraisal ability?"

"what?"

"You know about the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, right?"

"One of the top three sects, seems to be quite wealthy."

"Yes, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is the richest among the three sects. The fundamental reason is because the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda not only has the world's best auxiliary weapon spirit, but also has a very accurate treasure appraisal ability, but it doesn't know what the item is. What, you can easily know how valuable an item is." "Sounds very good." Guang rubbed his chin with interest, "My method is somewhat similar to treasure appraisal, but it is more laborious and less accurate."

There were two guards at the stairway on the second floor. They took a rough look at Guang and Qingyuan and showed no intention of blocking them. They were just guarding here to warn some guys on the blacklist.

The layout of the second floor is different from that of the first floor. As soon as you step in, you feel a quietness that is completely different from the noisy first floor. The hundreds of individually separated storefronts look more upscale, and the sidewalk in the middle is flat and wide.

As for things and finished products, Qingyuan still has no interest in them. He just scans the goods along the storefronts, only buying a piece of metal ore that he feels is best in each store, and most of the prices are no more than 2 gold soul coins.

When Guang was almost done, Miles followed from the first floor.

Looking at Miles who was following them, Qingyuan and Guang looked at each other calmly, understanding the meaning. Suddenly there were more eyes around them. It was probably the Blacksmiths Association that was eyeing them.

"It's almost time, Miles, take us directly to the auction."

"Okay, Your Highness, please come with me." Looking at the two soul kings guarding the door between the second and third floors, Miles straightened his back and felt confident. So what if the Blacksmith Association didn't want to see him?
How practical are those guys who only know how to blacksmith?He was usually wary of the two high-level soul emperors guarding the door between the third and fourth floors.

Today, he came to participate in the auction on behalf of Wuhun Palace. Silong and Siyu had no reason to stop him, let alone the elders and His Highness coming in person this time. They are the masters of Gengxin City. He is this Xiaona from Gengxin City.

To put it bluntly, with the elders supporting him in Gengxin City, he would run wild wherever he wanted!
----------

The auction hosted by the Blacksmiths Association was held on the fourth floor. The entire fourth floor was like a theater. The center was where the auction items were displayed, and the onlookers' seats were occupied by soul masters from all over the world.

Because of the rugged character of the blacksmith, the auction house here is not elegant. If you want to hide your identity, you need to prepare a mask or cloak.

The three of them arrived not too late, and only occupied more than half of the more than 400 seats present. Looking at the somewhat excited Miles, Guang gestured to him to indicate that the auction should be quiet and not cause trouble.

"Welcome all distinguished guests. I'm Sidi. Today's auction will begin soon. Please take a seat. Although everyone participating in the auction should be old friends, I still want to repeat it. During the bidding process, please Raise the sign next to your seat as a sign of bidding and quote the price at the same time. Although I know it is impossible, I still hope that every distinguished guest present will leave satisfied."

Looking at the middle-aged man on the stage, Miles quietly introduced Qingyuan and Guang next to him, "This is Lou Gao's young disciple Sidi, who is now a master blacksmith."

"There are nine lots in this auction. In theory, each one is more precious than the last. The last one is the latest work of my teacher, the master craftsman Lou Gao. It will definitely make everyone's trip worthwhile."

Sidi's words instantly heated up the atmosphere in the entire auction room. You must know that the works of the master craftsman Lou Gao are quite precious. It would have been nice to have a master's work as the finale of previous auctions.

Backstage at the auction house, Silong and Siyu told Master Lou Gao with gloomy expressions the bad news. Miles from the Wuhun Palace came to the Blacksmith Association again, and brought a child and a beautiful woman with him. Now he is in front of him. At the auction house, it looks like the visitors are coming with bad intentions.

Lou Gao is not the traditional image of a tall, powerful, muscular man, but a spherical old man with a height of 1.6 meters and a waist of 1.6 meters. He has windy ears, small eyes, and wears a large cloak under his messy hair.

"Since he's here to participate in the auction, keep an eye on him." Lou Gao waved his hand carelessly. He only had eyes for his latest work, a silver-white armor, "As long as he doesn't cause trouble."

"Teacher, that bastard Miles just made trouble on the first floor. Not only did he buy things without paying, but he also blackmailed my nephew for more than 30 gold soul coins!" Sikai walked in angrily with an angry look on his face.

"He brought a child and a beautiful woman and blackmailed him?" Siyu was a little confused.

"It's that kid who takes the lead in extortion. Miles seems to be following his orders. It's weird." Skye replied, remembering her nephew's accusation.

"Miles is already the chief priest of Wuhun Temple. A child can actually order him. Could it be that he is Harveys's grandson?" Silong guessed, "I heard that Harveys is retiring. The next Geng The master of the Xincheng Wuhun Main Hall is either Miles or Li Ti."

"Li Ti? He's Li Yuan's son, right? I have some impression." Sikai scratched his head and tried to remember.

"Blacksmith Li Yuan is also a veteran of our blacksmith association." Silong reminded.

"Okay, you go out and ensure the smooth completion of this auction. I'll stay here alone." Lou Gao waved his hand impatiently and frowned at his new work.

Seeing that the teacher once again fell into a state of thinking that excluded everything, his three disciples followed the order and came to the auction house to discuss.

"What should I do? I'm worried that Miles and the other three might interfere with the auction." Siyu raised the question rationally. If the two parties quarreled and ruined the auction, it would be a slap in the face of the Blacksmiths Association.

"But the gap between us and Wuhun Temple is too big. Don't Master Tang Hao and Master Taitan have to hide incognito when facing Wuhun Temple?" Sikai looked bored. He was firmly against the Wuhun Temple faction. .

"Not everyone in Wuhun Temple is like Miles, and the conflict between the two divine craftsmen and Wuhun Temple is not the blacksmith's business in the final analysis, it is the soul master's matter. We only need to follow the teacher and guard the rules of the Blacksmith Association. Family business is good." Silong, as Lou Gao's eldest disciple, acts the most prudent and cares more about his master Lou Gao when looking at things.

"It would be great if Li Ti could be elected as the master of our Gengxin City Martial Spirit Main Hall." Siyu fantasized beautifully, "But now let's think about what to do with the auction. I have some doubts that Miles may have prostituted the auction items for nothing. , or miss part of the auction money.”

"What you said is indeed very possible, but we can't let him not participate in the bidding." Silong also looked worried. The auction items are worth at least tens of thousands of gold soul coins, and even one-tenth of it is still a huge amount of several thousand gold soul coins. , this is not a trivial fight with thirty or so gold soul coins on the first floor.

"I have an idea here that will not affect the auction, but also give Miles and the others nowhere to start." Skye, who had long been extremely fed up with Miles, said.

----------

"The fifth lot is a special piece of fine gold, weighing 130 three kilograms. Compared with ordinary fine gold, it is not only stronger in comprehensive strength, but also has red flame patterns on it. The most peculiar thing is that it is warm all the time. It The base price is 10 gold soul coins, and the minimum price increase is [-] gold soul coins. Now all distinguished guests can bid."

Looking at the small square of strange metal with golden patterns, Guang's casual eyes suddenly became interested, and he sat upright with his lazy body, "It looks a bit like blazing sun gold. It's a good thing."

"20 gold soul coins!" Guang raised the sign to double the price without hesitation, which directly made the entire auction that was about to take place much quieter.

"22 gold soul coins!" A delicate female voice sounded tentatively.

"30 gold soul coins!" Guang's voice sounded again, and everyone's eyes were focused on this little guy who was only more than ten years old. Isn't this some child causing trouble?

The silent doubts gave Sidi a headache on the stage. He could clearly see Miles next to the boy on the stage. That bastard wouldn't find a child to deliberately mess with the bag.

"The bidder this time is from our Wuhun Palace." Miles stood up and replied loudly to dispel people's concerns. Since Wuhun Palace is the guarantee, even if the price goes up to the sky, there will be someone to support it.

"Auctioneer, isn't the deal done yet?" Qingyuan's cold voice sounded, expressing dissatisfaction with Sidi's delay in moving.

"30 gold soul coins once, 30 gold soul coins twice." Just as he was about to announce the deal for this black iron, suddenly, a voice sounded from behind.

"40 gold soul coins."
