Lord Sovereign

Chapter 148 - A Cauldron Bargain

Old man Zhang laughed when he heard it: "Junior nephew, you are not the first to ask this kind of question. Think about it yourself. Let's talk about the recipes for equipment first. If you have a piece of armor, and you used it in battle and you didn't die, will you spread the details of the armour out?"

"This, of course not..." Fei Hong said with a wry smile.

"That's it. So the general items are in private hands, how can they spread? Of course, there are some ancient items, but the number is equally rare, and it is because the refining of ancient still happens today. Only when the base material of the magic weapons has disappeared will the recipes be spread. As for the pill recipe, it is basically the same reason."

After saying this, Fei Hong almost understood: "Well, thank you for your teaching me."

The old man Zhang interrupted Fei Hong's words: "Boy, do you want to make alchemy? If you ask for the alchemy recipe, the old man can't help you, but as for alchemy, you know that the other side is the ground furnace, which can be refined with ground fire, but Ordinary cauldrons cannot be refined. So, if you want to find true cauldrons, I have them here."

Fei Hong was stunned, raised his eyes and glanced at the uncle. Is this old man only thinking of money and already going crazy? Was he trying to sell his cauldron? However, my red pot and cauldron were broken. For refining spirit pills, the level of the red pot cauldron was still a little worse. This uncle was a late stage master of the earth realm, and he should have a good cauldron in his hand.

Well, he had a lot of gold coins in his hand. When he helped the He family in Tianyuan City, the third grandmother of the He family gave him a lot of gold coins to thank him; and when he returned to Lingxiu Mountain from Tianyuan City before, Zhang Shi also sent someone to give him quite a number of gold coins. The two times were what he deserved, and the other time was given by his elder brother, of course Fei Hong would not refuse. At this moment, there were still hundreds of gold coins in his Qiankun ring.

In other words, the current Fei Hong was a rich man among the low-level disciples...

Thinking of this, Fei Hong nodded: "The disciple happens to be a craftsman, thank you first, Uncle. How about taking this disciple to see it?"

"Okay!" Old man Zhang didn't expect Fei Hong to be so refreshing, for fear of Fei Hong's remorse, he quickly led him around the main room, walked into a dark room, lit up the lights, and a dozen of different color Ding Furnaces appeared in front of Fei Hong.

"Nephew, come and see, these cauldrons are the wealth that my uncle and I have accumulated over the years. Look at this, it is made of black magic stone, which can completely and evenly absorb the temperature of the ground fire. It is very easy when you're using it to make medicinal pills or armor. Look at this one, it is made from the claws and spine of the second-level monster, the mountain eagle. It gathers heat quickly and cools quickly. The rate will be greatly increased! And this..."

The old man with a short stature, jumped up and down for a while, and explained to Fei Hong about the origin and function of each cauldron.

Fei Hong's head was a little bigger than usual when he heard it, but he still endured it. After the uncle stopped introducing the cauldron,  Fei Hong finally pointed to one of the light blue cauldrons on the left. A layer of sweat appeared on his forehead from exhaustion. "Uncle, I want that one..."

"Hey! This is an excellent cauldron!" Seeing that Fei Hong had chosen this cauldron, the old man immediately made an expression as if he really knew the product: "This cauldron was made from a sky blue diamond and a second-level monster tiger fish. The spine was forged with truefire, and it was my most cherished cauldron. Junior nephew, have you thought about it?"

As the old man explained this, he made a painful expression, making Fei Hong looked like he couldn't laugh or cry: "Uncle Master, the disciple is looking forward to it, but I don't know how much..."

As soon as Fei Hong was about to ask how much he should pay, the old man Zhang immediately put his hands on his chest: "Alright, since my nephew likes it, your uncle will reluctantly give it up to show you his kindness. Originally, this cauldron was worth two hundred gold coins, but today I will be generous to my nephew. For one hundred and eighty gold coins, you can take it!"

As he said that, the old man frowned tightly, with an expression of excruciating pain...

One hundred and eighty? Fei Hong nearly vomited blood. How could Fei Hong not be in pain from the amount demanded by this uncle. 

A while ago, he replaced a piece of black iron and a red pot cauldron with a piece of ice jelly stone. These three things together were not worth a hundred gold coins, but now, this cauldron actually costs one hundred and eighty? 

Although this cauldron was indeed perfect, Fei Hong's own estimate was about a hundred and twenty, and it was still under the condition of the old man's lion's greedy mouth. Twenty gold coins were already removed.

Not dumb, Fei Hong didn't want to portray someone with that kind of money, so he immediately put on a desperate look. "This... ah, the money beats me. I don't blame the uncle, but I really can't get so much money. This time, there's nothing I can do. Well..."

After Fei Hong said that, he turned towards the exit. How could old man Zhang let him go, when he hadn't see a single buyer for a long time now. He grabbed him and said, "Hm, nephew can look at other cauldrons. They're all very good, you see..."

Seeing the old man like this, Fei Hong smiled in his heart, but his face was very painful. "I just like the look of this one, but it's fine if I don't get it. I'll trouble the uncle when I save enough money..."

The old man Zhang was also a shrewd person, how could he not see Fei Hong's little display.. "Forget it, the nephew spoke pleasant words. How much can you give for it?"
