Lord of War

  Lao Kui An joins the Void Principality, which is a good thing for both Void Principality and Old Kui An.

  The inheritance of forging skills, this is not something to talk about. If such a highly professional term can be used, then this inheritance must at least be passed down in the chaotic era. In that era of war, magic weapons were just like ordinary weapons today. They were all produced in batches. Basically, even ordinary soldiers could use bronze magic weapons.

  However, with the end of the chaotic era, the mainland's power structure has stabilized, and various precious resources have been exhausted one by one. Therefore, in addition to technical issues in the manufacture of magical equipment, there is also a problem of raw materials. Even if it is to make a bronze magic weapon, at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold coins are needed, and this is only the cost price. Before that, Sean spent some energy and time to make it for the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance. Of course, he asked for three times the amount of material he asked for a golden-grade magic weapon.

  This is very normal for the alchemist: no alchemist can guarantee to forge a magic weapon at a time—except for Sean.

  So in fact, Sean is greedy for the other two magical equipment that is enough to make the golden grade. It's just that he didn't use these equipment to make golden-grade demonized equipment, but gave Kaidi and the others to practice, and produced a batch of bronze and silver-grade demonized equipment, which was regarded as completing the capital accumulation of the Void Principality in the early stage. Later, after selling these magical equipment to the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance, they had the first start-up capital to purchase magical equipment.

  But after the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance turned face, Sean’s current magic equipment forging materials are mainly purchased from the Wildlands. Even if it is purchased from other territories or chambers of commerce that have not joined the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, the price is much higher because of the road and transit, so that the profit that can be earned is not too high. After all, it is produced by the Void Principality. Enchanted equipment is not very high-quality. You can always find substitutes made by other alchemists on the continent, but they do not have the high output of the Void Duchy and stable output of two to three pieces per month.

  It's just that these are based on stable material acquisitions. Once there is no source of these materials, then even if Sean builds a large-scale forging team, there is nothing he can do. And now because of material limitations. Therefore, it is very difficult for the Void Principality to forge magical equipment above the silver level. The highest quality is just a powerful bronze magic weapon. Although the selling price cannot be higher than the silver grade, if the Void Principality itself sells it, then there is no commission or intermediary fee to others, and the pricing is completely determined by the Void Principality itself.

  There is nothing more profitable than the sale of magic equipment, even the exclusive equipment of the magician and all kinds of alchemy potions and magic potions.

  Sean wrote a letter to Old Quinn, asking him to take it to Neil in Void City. Neil will arrange the next thing.

  No one knows better than Neal, who manages the administration of the entire territory. How much is the economic constraints of the Void Principality now? Although the addition of Lao Kui'an could not benefit the Void Principality for the time being. Instead, he has to pay for his next practice, but in terms of long-term interests, Lao Kui'an has played a very important role in the future of the entire void Principality.

  As long as there is a stable material purchase channel, the Void Principality will be able to produce two goldsmiths in the future.

  Today, in the entire Marvel Continent, there are no more than 30 craftsmen who can create golden-grade demonized equipment—after all, this is a real world, not a game. In the later stages of the game, as long as the players who practice the deputy blacksmith have enough materials, it is not a problem to reach the level of the goldsmith.

  Lao Kui An quickly packed up his things. He only left two people in this smithy, and he took away all the other apprentices.

   These two people. One is his grandson, Xiao Kuian, and the other is the middle-aged man who came to the front desk to be responsible for the cashier.

  Old Kui'an Blacksmith's shop has been rooted in Roma City for a long time. At this time, Lao Kui'an suddenly left with a group of apprentices, which naturally attracted a certain degree of attention. After all, one-seventh of the commercial tax in Roma City is supported by the Old Qui'an Blacksmith's Shop, which can be regarded as a fortune for any city lord, and no one will easily give up. But without a valid reason, you can't detain the opponent, especially the Void City that Old Kui'an is going to.

  Now in the aristocratic circle of the entire Kingdom of Lane, the impression that the Void Principality gave them is almost like a beast, and no one knows when this beast will violently hurt people.

  Money is important, but there is another prerequisite, that is, life is spent.

  If you lose your life, why do you ask for so much money?

  For this, Xiao En knew better than anyone else, so he did not go to help Lao Kui'an. He believes that Elder Kui An can stand in Roma for so many years, and even the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance has not reaped any benefits. There must be his own extraordinary methods.

  So Xiao En still stayed in the blacksmith's shop, chatting with Xiao Kui'an.

  However, Xiao Kuian obviously wants to appear a little cautious. After all, he didn't know the identity of Sean before, so he didn't care, but now that he knew the identity of Sean, he couldn't do the same attitude as before.

   Xiao En sighed helplessly in his heart: After all, he was not the one who founded the country with him, and there is no way to maintain a normal mentality.

In fact, with Sean’s current status and identity, there are also a series of feats for founding the country, in addition to those followers who laid the foundation today with Sean, even those from the Wild Legion who came to vote in the later period or those from the Wild Federation. It is impossible for people to maintain an equal mentality with Sean. And even these people can't do it, let alone the nobles of the Ryan Kingdom and the little Kui'an who is not even a squire.

  For a while, Xiao En was not interested. He knew that staying here would only make XiaoQuian and the apprentice even more uncomfortable.

   "By the way, do you know someone named Hercules?" Sean thought for a while, but decided to find an excuse to leave.

  Beth only said that Hercules was in the Roma Steppe area, but the area nearby was very vast, not that it could be found immediately, so he just asked casually, planning to leave here with this as an excuse. The reason why he came to Roma City was purely to take on the task of Bronze Body. As long as the task was received, he would leave here soon, and he did not intend to make any stay in Roma City.

   "Hercules?" Xiaoquan frowned and thought for a while, "Rome City is called by this name. There seem to be two or three. Can you make it clear?"

  Hearing Xiao Kui’an’s words, Xiao En was taken aback for a moment. Shouldn’t he let himself run into dead mice?

  So, Sean didn’t care to say anything, and immediately described the characteristics of the image of Hercules in his memory.

"Oh, there really is such a person in Roma City." Xiao Kui'an suddenly clapped his hands. "That young man always has an old man's tone and attitude. He lives in Dongcheng District, where he is rich. District, I don’t know where this boy got so much money, maybe it was left by his ancestors.... But I heard that the city lord wanted to trouble him before, and it seemed that he wanted to make a mistake, but then I didn’t know how. What's going on, this matter will not be over, now few people in the city dare to provoke him."

  Hearing XiaoQuian's words, Xiao En's mind felt like a lightning strike at this moment.

  At this moment, he finally remembered why he felt that Hercules looked so familiar!

  This Hercules is the starter of the Sanctuary mission!

  When I was in the game, the players in the southern continent basically started the sanctuary mission from Hercules. It's just that he is just a quest opener. As long as he completes a small quest, he will ask the player to find the four great ascetic monks. At this point, he will be regarded as the real Bronze Body quest. So Sean remembered the four great ascetics and the beginning of the mission, but he just didn't remember Hercules.

  Who would remember a character who is just a mere idiot?

  In the entire Sanctuary mission, Hercules also appeared once at the beginning, and then there was nothing related to him.

   But now it seems that this Hercules is very difficult.

   can make Bess feel tricky, and he is also the initiator of the sanctuary mission. These few points alone are enough to prove the strength of Hercules.

   Xiao En didn't mean to stay here anymore. He soon said goodbye to Xiao Kuian, then got up and walked towards Dongcheng District. Since Sean had remembered the residence of Hercules, he knew that the other party lived there. This was originally part of his mission. If he didn’t know it, then it would be nothing. Play this game for so many years.

  Not long after, Sean came to the house of Hercules.

  This is an independent courtyard.

  It can be seen that the rich in Roma still enjoy life. There are a total of 20 independent courtyards on this street, and it is not a problem to live two or three hundred people in each courtyard. But this is not the focus of Sean’s attention. He noticed that these courtyards have their own private guards. Although the number of people does not seem to be very large, these people are all of the upper bronze level, and some of them are still lower silver, which is almost worth it. It's better than the general viscount family heritage.

  Are the people living here all the nobles of Ryan?

  Otherwise, how could the earl of Roma allow these people to have private guards in their city?

   However, Sean only glanced at it slightly. With his current level of strength, even if these people were all together, he would not be his opponent. So he knocked on the courtyard gate of Hercules, and then said: "Master Hercules, are you there?" (to be continued~^~)

  PS:  Because something happened temporarily today, it may not break out. I am sorry, I will strive for four more compensation.
