From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star
Chapter 158: Famous Tempering Master in Later Times
It's the Fire Emblem event day again.
Today, the Fire Emblem Club building is very lively. Even members who don't qualify for the event will come to the club, hoping to get in the Quenching Castle together.
As the number of members of the Fire Emblem Club increases, you have to queue up for every event, and sometimes you can't get in even after queuing for a month or two.
"Why can't I get in? I've been queuing for more than a month, and every time I'm told to queue up..."
A middle-aged Quencher shouted at the front desk of the Fire Emblem Club indignantly: "I also paid the membership fee, a membership fee of one million. Do you think it was blown by the wind?"
The front desk lady of the Fire Emblem Club is accustomed to this situation and responded with a smile: "Mr. Yuan, our club has a deposit of one million to join, but this is not a membership fee. This one million can be spent in the club.
"In addition, if you are not satisfied with the club's service, I can help you withdraw from the club, and the deposited amount will be fully refunded.
"Excuse me, Mr. Yuan, do you need to go through the procedures for withdrawing from the membership? I can help you with that."
"No... No, I don't want to withdraw from the membership." The middle-aged quencher called Mr. Yuan was instantly timid and waved his hand.
"What else do you need?" The receptionist asked with a smile.
"How long will it take before it's my turn?" The quencher named Yuan could only ask with a drooping face.
"I don't know about that either. I don't have the authority to query the queuing system." The receptionist responded with a smile.
"But I really need to enter the Quenching Castle. I can't just waste time like this. Can you help me talk to your boss..."
The tone of the quencher named Yuan became softer and softer: "Please, I am a quencher. As long as I can enter the Quenching Castle, I can agree to any conditions.
"I have no other choice. I need to make some money. Please help me."
The receptionist continued to smile: "Sorry, Mr. Yuan, I can't do anything. "
In fact.
The competition for membership in the Fire Emblem Club is very fierce. All the major financial groups want to send people to the Quenching Castle, and have even raised the admission standard to the Quenching Castle to the level of 10 million.
However, Lu Heng thinks that ordinary psychics should be given a chance, otherwise those who enter the Quenching Castle in the future will be those selected by the major financial groups.
Therefore, the Fire Emblem retains the standard of depositing 1 million to join the club.
However, after joining the club, you need to queue up to enter the Quenching Castle.
In the outside world, the Quenching Castle admission tickets obtained by queuing up have been sold for tens of millions by the major financial groups.
However, if the club finds that someone is buying and selling admission tickets, it will directly Then cancel the qualification to enter, and then expel the membership.
Even so, there will still be consortiums secretly operating.
Just when the quencher named Yuan was talking to the front desk.
Lu Heng walked into the lobby of the Fire Emblem Club and happened to hear the quencher named Yuan talking to the front desk. He turned his head and took a look when he passed by.
When he saw the quencher, he felt a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere, so he stopped.
As soon as the manager of the Fire Emblem Club lobby saw Lu Heng coming in, he hurried up to greet him: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Lin has told you today that you are coming. The venue has been arranged. I will take you there."
The quencher named Yuan heard the words of the club manager, and his attitude was so respectful, so he immediately realized that the young man who came must be a big shot.
He hurriedly took two steps forward and introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Lu, my name is Yuan Hecheng, I am a quencher, my talent is [High Temperature Balance], I hope to enter the Quenching Castle for an assessment. I have been waiting in line for a long time. "
The club manager saw someone coming up to harass the boss, and hurriedly waved to the security guard to come over.
If this Yuan Hecheng suddenly went crazy, it would mean that he, as a manager, was derelict in his job and would lose his job.
When Lu Heng heard the name "Yuan Hecheng", he was stunned.
Because this name is very famous in later generations, he is a very famous quencher in Binhai area and even in the whole country.
In fact, you can tell from his talent [High Temperature Balance] when he introduced himself.
This talent can keep the temperature of the quenching furnace within a constant range, which greatly improves the success rate of quenching.
With this talent, you will definitely achieve success in the profession of quencher.
The security guard came up quickly and prepared to carry the man away.
Lu Heng raised his hand to stop the security guard's action, and then said: "Let him come in with me."
Yuan Hecheng saw the security guards surrounding him just now, and he was ready to resist. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden turn of events, and suddenly he saw the dawn in the darkness.
Entered a meeting room.
After sitting down, Lu Heng took the initiative to ask: "Are you a quencher? "
Yuan Hecheng nodded and replied: "Yes, I am a quenching master."
The current Yuan Hecheng is not as glorious as in the future.
In the future, whenever he appears, there will be many people surrounding him.
After all, a quenching master is a very scarce resource in the era of the advent of the abyss.
The current Yuan Hecheng is dusty and untidy, which is very different from the quenching master in his impression. So Lu Heng just felt familiar at first sight, but did not recognize him.
Lu Heng was a little curious and asked: "Has a consortium invested in you?"
Yuan Hecheng nodded first, then shook his head quickly: "Someone talked to me, but I didn't agree."
"Why didn't you agree?" Lu Heng continued to ask.
"The conditions they offer are too harsh. After signing the contract, they will invest in me and arrange for me to enter the Quenching Fort. Only after passing the Quenching Fort assessment can I get a good treatment. If I fail, I can only get a basic salary." Yuan Hecheng was very frank and told the situation.
Since Quenching Fort is currently the only place on Blue Star with a quenching furnace, and the emergence of the Fire Emblem Club has become the only channel to enter Quenching Fort.
After Chunshang Group withdrew from Daxia, other consortiums also found that it was difficult to get a return by investing in quenchers.
In this case, the major consortiums did not directly give up the profession of quenchers, but continued to invest, but the contracts became more and more harsh.
Because if the major consortiums want to train a quencher, they must pass the Quenching Fort.
But if they want to send a quencher to Quenching Fort, they want to invest a lot of money.
What makes the major consortiums even more annoyed is that so far, no quencher has been able to pass the Quenching Fort assessment.
Not one.
In other words, the money invested by the major consortiums in quenchers so far has all gone down the drain.
As for entering the abyss world for quenching, this method cannot recover the cost.
Because Hengyu has already achieved a guaranteed success rate of quenching of 75%.
This guaranteed number is too much, which directly makes the major consortiums unable to recover the cost in the quenching industry.
These consortiums cannot recover the cost of investing in quenchers, but they cannot give up the quenching market.
What to do?
They can only continue to invest, and then the contracts signed with quenchers become more and more demanding.
Now a strange situation has formed. The number of quenchers has increased, but there is only one quenching furnace in Blue Star.
This leads to the scarcity of quenching furnaces, while quenchers are not so scarce.
Therefore, the major consortiums sign quenchers with a contract of ten years at the beginning, and some even require signing fifteen years.
Moreover, the terms of the contract are also very harsh.
After signing the contract, the consortium will spend money to send the quencher to the quenching fort for assessment.
If the assessment can be passed, then the salary will naturally soar, but if the assessment fails, then you can only get a very low basic salary.
As for taking orders for quenching, that's impossible.
...
Lu Heng saw that he looked a little excited and was obviously under great pressure, so he asked:
"Since no consortium has invested in you, why are you so anxious to enter the Quenching Castle? Just wait in line and it will be your turn."
Yuan Hecheng stood up quickly and said in a hurried tone: "No, I must enter the Quenching Castle as soon as possible."
There is obviously something wrong here.
Lu Heng took a sip of the teacup and asked: "Why are you so anxious?"
Yuan Hecheng looked a little embarrassed, and he hesitated several times. Finally, he exhaled and said: "I need money urgently."
"How much do you need?" Lu Heng continued to ask, wanting to understand the situation of this famous quencher in later generations.
Especially his identity and background.
This is very important.
If he has signed a contract with other consortiums and is a quencher arranged by other consortiums, then Lu Heng would not have to help.
Yuan Hecheng stretched out a finger and said: "At least 10 million."
Ten million, for a famous quencher, can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
For those big financial groups, it is a drop in the bucket, but for ordinary people, they may never see so much money in their lives.
Lu Heng then asked: "Is there no financial group willing to invest 10 million in you?"
Yuan Hecheng exhaled and said helplessly: "There is a financial group willing to invest, but the money is not given to me directly. The contract stipulates that the money can only be used for quenching. Moreover, there will be a special agent to manage the property. I can't get a penny."
Lu Heng thought for a while and asked: "Have you talked to them about advance payment?"
Yuan Hecheng nodded and replied: "Yes, I have talked to the people of Dingsheng. If they are willing to advance me 10 million, I am willing to sign a 15-year selling agreement. But they did not agree, thinking it is difficult to recover the cost.
"I also know the current situation. Only by passing the assessment of the Quenching Castle can you have a status. Otherwise, even a quencher does not have the capital to advance so much money.
"So I can only come here by myself and try my luck."
After hearing his answer, Lu Heng understood the purpose of his coming to the club.
His strategy is indeed correct.
As long as he can enter the Quenching Castle and pass Guru's assessment, when he comes out, his net worth will increase a thousand times.
At that time, it will not be him who asks those consortiums, but those consortiums will hold blank checkbooks and send them to him, waiting for him to fill in the numbers.
However, so far, no quencher has been able to pass Guru's assessment.
This is also the reason why Dingsheng Consortium is unwilling to advance him 10 million yuan in compensation.
Lu Heng thought for a while and asked, "Why are you so anxious to get 10 million?"
This amount of money is actually not a lot for an accomplished quencher.
He only needs to develop slowly and earn much more money than this number in the future.
Yuan Hecheng took a deep breath and was silent for a long time before answering: "Because... my daughter was conscripted, she is only ten years old..."
