Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 201 Improvement
Deep alley.
It was rare for Lu Meng to check in at the unknown store where he worked early in the morning.
Mainly the equipment here is useless.
Moreover, it is more atmospheric to study the weapon blueprints in a small shop. If you have any experience, you can try it on the spot.
A middle-aged man suddenly rushed out from inside and bumped directly into Lu Meng.
"Jean… Ouch."
This section of the alley was narrow and there was no room for two people to pass. The man had no time to get out of the way and was about to pounce on Lu Meng.
However, the next moment he missed it and fell directly to the ground.
"What are you doing!" The man stood up angrily, his palms scratched.
"You asked me to give way." Lu Meng continued walking without looking back.
The man was about to have an attack when he suddenly realized:
One moment the white-haired young man was in front of him, but the next moment he was behind him?
The alley is narrow and there is no room to pass sideways.
Unless they jumped directly over their heads at the moment when they were about to collide.
Haven't noticed yet.
The man opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He believed that he definitely did not have such physical ability and skills.
"Forget it, stop causing trouble." He touched the short knife on his waist and ran out happily, "I snatched the last piece of Master Beiyou's work, but I got it at a huge discount. I'm going to piss those guys off. "
…
"Sold out?" Lu Meng raised an eyebrow, "I remember there are still a few semi-finished products."
"Anyway, you don't like it. The price they offered is right, so we just sold it together." Ashu said with a smile: "Brother Lu, you don't know, your reputation has been completely established when you go out. There are many people Everyone knows that there is a 'Master Beiyou' in our store, and they all form a small circle."
"Really? No wonder I saw so many people gathered at the door so early in the morning, and some were quarreling."
"They are all here to grab the last batch of works by Master Beiyou. First come, first served, first served. Can we not get into a fight?" Ashu's eyes showed shrewdness.
"The last batch of works..." Lu Meng looked at Ashu with squinted eyes, "You wouldn't say I'm dead, right?"
It sounds like a posthumous work.
Lu Meng suddenly felt like an artist who only became popular after his death.
"How is it possible? You're not in the shop. Aren't those weapons the 'last batch of works' before you left..." Ashu's eyes dodge, "Although some people may indeed think so."
"Ah."
Lu Meng snorted softly.
His "Weapon Forging" has now reached the proficiency level, and he can stably produce weapons of the "old modified knife" level using ordinary materials.
This is the standard of ordinary blacksmiths in Scone Town.
And with some skeletal remains as auxiliary materials, a "modified knife" can be created.
If we only judge the technique based on quality, Lu Meng can indeed be called a "master" in the small circle of Scone Town.
Before Lu Meng made weapons for himself, he had been practicing using these two techniques until he reached a higher "Kaidun City" level.
Before he left, he gave all the products from his training to Ashu for consignment.
Although the outbreak of word-of-mouth sometimes happens in just a moment, looking at Ashu's operation, it is obvious that his various marketing methods have contributed to it.
"This is the payment for the goods." Ashu took out a bag from the counter, "Ten old modified knives and three modified knives, totaling 100,000 yuan. I have replaced them with 200 denominations. You will know after weighing the weight."
This selling price is almost the same as the market price, but in fact there is still not much premium from brands and craftsmen.
After all, the reputation of their stores is not as guaranteed as that of big stores.
Ashu's role is more to sell them quickly for cash. It is difficult to cut leeks.
But Ashu believed in his brother's craftsmanship.
This can also be seen from the reactions of customers.
Although some people are just looking for cost-effectiveness, gradually more and more repeat customers are asking for the works of Beiyou masters by name.
Probably these weapons really meet their needs.
Lu Meng took the bag and was also very satisfied.
Although I bought a lot of valuable things on this trip, my assets actually increased after coming back.
Adding this income, Lu Meng's personal cash already has 250,000 coins.
Moreover, he was not new to Scone Town and had nothing but money.
Take Lu Meng’s real estate as an example.
Not only has the longhouse been repaired, but various furniture decorations have also been completed. The house has a courtyard, a living area, a workshop, a storage room, and all the equipment.
In addition, Lu Meng also put forward ideas, and the actual operation was presided over by Huo Buyang, who reinforced the entire longhouse and transformed it into a fortification.
Coupled with the stored water, food, and self-sufficient electricity, there is no problem in staying there even if you don't go out for a month.
After all, when this longhouse was still dilapidated, it could accommodate more than a dozen Hornless hooligans, but now it only houses three people and one dog; after the second floor was restored, the space could not be fully utilized.
Lu Meng was thinking about the money bag, and the coins were jingling in it.
In fact, he is not that obsessed with money - or in other words, he values more the value behind wealth than the wealth itself.
That is the allocation of resources.
And investing in yourself.
You can use the coins to exchange for newer equipment, more knowledge, stronger strength, and a better life...that is the most important thing.
This may be the difference between Lu Meng and the merchant guild.
For the merchant guild, the pursuit of digital growth is the only valuable goal.
After all, this is Union City. If you don't annex others, others will eat you.
Even people who just eat slower will be eliminated.
"By the way," Ashu waited for Lu Meng to accept the money bag, then leaned over and whispered, "In addition to the customers who come here these days, there are also some other people..."
"They are obviously not here for your works, but for you - 'Master Beiyou'."
"Aimed at me?" Lu Meng raised his eyes, "Who do you think they are?"
"From their inquiring tone..." Ashu thought, not daring to conclude, "It seems like people from other weapon shops in the city."
"What?" Lu Meng smiled, "I want to poach him."
"It's not impossible." Ah Shu said seriously, "How about I apply to the headquarters to give you a salary increase..."
"No need, even if the post fee is doubled, it would be better for me to make a short sword." Lu Meng said casually.
It seems that I have really made a name for myself in the craftsman profession.
Although it is just a side job.
Almost all industrial and commercial guilds are monopolies, and any newcomer will receive attention.
At this time, a colleague comes to visit, and most likely it is not to have a cordial and friendly technical exchange with him.
In addition to the solicitation just mentioned...that is probably a warning.
It's a pity that he is not a real blacksmith and will not stay in Scone forever.
"Then 'Master Beiyou', when will you get new weapons?" Ashu rubbed his hands in a joking tone.
With the brand effect and sales boosted, the person in charge of Shaq will also receive a lot of dividends.
It was precisely because he knew that Brother Lu was back in the city that he sold the last few weapons that he had been holding off on selling.
"I want to buy my own things recently." Lu Meng added: "Not for sale."
"Oh..." Ashu said sarcastically.
Suddenly, he felt a little hungry. He had been busy with business early in the morning and had not had time to eat.
"Speaking of which, Brother Lu, you haven't baked bread for a long time." He hinted.
Lu Meng glanced at him.
"Eat more if you are not afraid of poisoning."
The heating furnace used to be brand new, but now all kinds of skeleton remains, iron blocks, and alloys have been added to it, and the residue is full of heavy metals.
That's so healthy.
