Douluo: Thousand Miles of Practice - Chapter 306

c306 Section 306

But as he walked, he found something wrong. There were treasures everywhere, and they were all from ordinary stalls. But the strange thing was that apart from the treasures, the others were pure stones that were useless. They were placed there deliberately. But even so, many people had a very high probability of opening stones.

With curiosity, Qianshui also picked a stall and asked, “Boss, how much do you sell this treasure for?”

“One hundred gold soul coins, no bargaining.”

From the face, this boss is not special. He is just the kind of vendor that can be seen everywhere. It’s just that because he sells ore, the whole thing looks heavier, but he gives people the feeling of being an honest person.

But this surprised Huan Hongchen very much, “Ah? Didn’t this kind of thing cost one gold soul coin before?”

“Little girl, you also said it was before. It should be about five years ago, when the war just started, Gengxin City was quickly surrounded.”

The peddlers are mostly like this, and it’s easy to open up the conversation.

“At that time, a big man from the Tiandou Empire went crazy buying things when he arrived in Gengxin City. Because of the war, most of us fled to the countryside, but we couldn’t resist the generosity of that big man. He gave us too much, so we all came again.

That was not a choice. He ordered everyone to put the ore in the square, and those who valued it would take it. That time, the money that big man spent was enough to buy the entire Gengxin City.

Although not many people have seen it, I think that big man must be someone who knows about ores!”

The more the boss talked, the more humble Huan Hongchen became. She was almost killed by Qianshui’s eyes.

Qianshui: Isn’t it! Those who know how to spend money are knowledgeable! Ah!

“Then why did the price of this ore increase by a hundred times?” Qianshui continued to ask.

“The war is one reason, and the other is that the lord bought too much. Scarcity makes things expensive, so everyone followed suit and raised the price.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, after the lord came, the quality of the ore in the entire Gengxin City seems to have improved. Picking a piece of ore at random can increase the value by a hundred or a thousand times. We have to raise the price?

Just like you, the customer, you are also in the hands of that big shot. How about buying a piece to try your luck?”

Ignoring the fact that he was in the hands of Huan Hongchen for the time being, Qianshui also followed suit, and at the same time tried the treasure appraisal ability of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower, “Okay! Since you are here, just pick a piece.”

Pointing to a huge black stone that is half a person’s height, Qianshui handed a savings card with a limit of 100,000 to the boss.

According to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower, the value of this thing is far beyond all the surrounding stones, and it should be a good thing.

“Okay, a hundred gold soul coins!”

After the boss collected the money, the stone naturally belonged to Qianshui. As he gently slapped it, the whole boulder shattered.

A crisp crackling sound continued to sound, and a faint smoke burst out from the surface of the ore. Then, a strong chill spread out, and the temperature in the whole room was rapidly dropping.

Suddenly, the black metal ore inside the boulder was exposed. Although it was also black, there was no crack at all.

When seeing the stone, Huan Hongchen exploded, “Cold Heart Iron Essence! This is impossible! How could there be such a big piece! I bought all the iron ore in Gengxin City and only got one as big as a fist!”

For fear that the atmosphere would be quiet in an instant, the boss who collected the money also looked at Huan Hongchen in shock.

With dead fish eyes, Qianshui made a bold guess, “You won’t buy all the waste materials?”

“I…”

After bidding farewell to the boss who was full of regret, Qianshui continued his shopping.

After all, it was like opening a treasure chest in a game, and there was no stopping. This made Huan Hongchen understand what it meant to buy goods. He opened a treasure chest, and in just a short while, Qianshui’s wealth increased by at least ten thousand times.

Just that piece of cold iron essence weighing hundreds of kilograms was worth nearly ten million, and the initial price of one hundred gold soul coins was almost equivalent to nothing.

If she had caught Ning Rongrong back then, she would have made a fortune, right?

As the sky gradually darkened, Qianshui and Huan Hongchen walked all the way and stopped in front of a tall building in the city center.

“A horse cannot grow fat without night grass, and a man cannot become rich without external wealth!” After walking for nearly a day, Qianshui was now standing with his hands on his waist with a refreshing look on his face.

“Hehe~ Boss~ You said you don’t need so many rare metals, right~” Huan Hongchen had been saying this all the way, but it was a pity that Qianshui had ignored him.

After all, he lost 100 million, and he was only concerned about getting back the difference.

Qianshui was in a good mood at this time, and also teased, “It’s useful!”

“Impossible!” Huan Hongchen was particularly confident about this. Qianshui was not a soul guide material except for his strong mental power and the ability to work miracles with great force, so rare metals were useless in his hands, “You are simply…”

Qianshui laughed before Huan Hongchen finished speaking, “Use it to control you!”

Huan Hongchen was choked for a moment, Qianshui really controlled her fate, “Oh~ Boss, you can’t be like this! If you don’t give it to me, who else can you give it to? I am the only one in the whole continent who can make the best use of it!”

“I can give it to Jiaojiao, you are not the only soul guide.”

“That’s fine! Give it to her and it’s for me!”

“Where’s your face?” Qianshui could only describe Huan Hongchen’s behavior like this.

It’s a pity that for Huan Hongchen, it’s like Qianshui’s main job besides fishing, “Alas, I’m old, I’m old and ugly, what’s the use of having face?”

“Stop acting, are you going to the auction?”

“Go!”

As they said that, the two walked into the huge building beside them.

Huan Hongchen introduced to Qianshui: “The headquarters is divided into five floors. The first floor is the ordinary trading area, the second floor is the advanced trading area, and the third floor is the blacksmith registration assessment area. The fourth floor is the auction area, and the fifth floor is the blacksmith association.”

Walking into the first floor, it is very lively here, and there are the most people here. In Qianshui’s eyes, it is probably a place like the wholesale market in the camp, but only minerals and metal crafts are sold here.

“To be honest, there are still such places in Douluo Continent. The first time I came here, I was dragged around by their president for a long time.”

“Lou Gao?” Qianshui recalled.

“Yes!”

The heart-searching and heart-clarifying he gave to his little apprentice seemed to be written by Lou Gao. Speaking of this, Qianshui also thought of Huan Hongchen, and grabbed her shoulders and asked: “I say, you haven’t been cheated by others, right?”

Qianshui no longer has confidence in Huan Hongchen’s view of money. If it’s a few million, he can count her as passing.

“No…what can he do to me?”

“Master Hongchen?”

While the two were talking, a sturdy man who was probably at the Soul Saint level in Qianshui’s perception came forward to greet them.

At this time, Huan Hongchen did not change her silver-white battle armor, but it had changed its shape and became a short skirt that looked like a regular dress, like a metal suit, and it didn’t look out of place at first glance.

Qianshui had his long hair loose, and with his temperament of blending into the crowd, he looked more like a second-rate person, wearing an ordinary green cloth, with his hands behind his back, looking around.

The sturdy man who was walking towards them saw Qianshui and Huan Hongchen, and his expression was extremely serious, but he looked at Qianshui, “Who is this?”

“You are thinking…what…” Huan Hongchen seemed to have some impression of this person.

The man seemed to have misunderstood, and separated Qianshui and Huan Hongchen, blocking Huan Hongchen behind him, “Master Hongchen, if you are not willing to move, please leave it to me!”

“Hey! A hero saving a beauty?!” As the saying goes, his wife is too strong, so this kind of thing will not happen to Qianshui, so he thinks it is quite interesting, and does not think that he is the supporting role of a hero saving a beauty.

After hearing Qianshui’s words, Huan Hongchen’s mouth opened into an O shape. Is she so popular?

How to say it, this is her second time. The last time she was saved by Qianshui, and judging from the result, she probably lost the rest of her life.

But she also cheated Qianshui a lot, and it can be said that she and him love and hate each other.

“Who are you? Do you know who the Master Hongchen is?!” Facing Qianshui, he was not afraid.

The strong man slowly raised his right hand, and a golden light spot first appeared in the center of his palm, followed by a flash of golden light, and a small pure golden chisel appeared out of thin air.

One white, two yellow, three purple, and one black, four soul rings quietly appeared around this small chisel.

His unique martial soul and soul power fluctuations attracted everyone’s attention, and soon the crowd of onlookers surrounded the place.

“Master Silong?”

“Oh, isn’t that the Lord of Hongchen Hall?”

“That pretty boy actually dared to attack the Lord of Hongchen Hall, is he tired of living?”

“I heard that Master Silong has a special liking for the Lord of Hongchen Hall!”

“I heard that they have been together for a long time!”

This is the disadvantage of being too sensitive. Qianshui heard everything. He knew that the rumors of the masses usually became more and more outrageous, but he couldn’t help but pointed at the strong man named Silong and complained: “He… is your lover?”

After being asked by Qianshui, Huan Hongchen also came back to his senses and hurriedly grabbed the ignorant strong man, “Silong, are you so brave? Do you know who he is? Put away your martial spirit!”

Although Qianshui would definitely not kill people under normal circumstances, this was a special case. Huan Hongchen himself was afraid of being killed by him with a palm.

But Silong kept talking about something else. “Master Hongchen, I, a rough man, don’t understand the affairs of the empire, but this is the Blacksmith Association! Your contribution to Gengxin City is a great favor!”

“A huge favor?”

Seeing Qianshui’s face was not good again, and the crowd cheered, Huan Hongchen was extremely anxious.

She couldn’t reveal her boss’s true identity, otherwise she would die even more miserably. In a trance, she thought of Qianshui’s disguise as a woman. She suddenly thought that this seemed to be a good way.

Anyway, her boss was shameless, but afraid of trouble. He ran to Qianshui and pointed at his forehead and said, “Silong, this is a woman! She is a woman dressed as a man! You misunderstood!”

Then, Huan Hongchen turned around and winked at Qianshui frantically, meaning very clearly, “Change quickly!”

Huan Hongchen seemed to have really figured out Qianshui’s character. He thought carefully, it was just an illusion anyway. After all, everything is impermanent and appearance is really not important in front of the crowd.

The important thing is that he would lose face by showing off in front of others and making things difficult for a Soul Saint. It is likely that Huan Hongchen would laugh at him for the rest of his life, which is more painful than losing 100 million gold soul coins.

After figuring it out, Qianshui did it. With a wave of his hand, Ning Huahua’s image appeared again in Douluo Continent. No one in this small place knew him anyway.

So, Qianshui imitated Ning Rongrong’s voice and said, “Yes, I am a woman dressed as a man.”

Then he pointed to his chest, “Do you want to touch it if you don’t believe me?”

Shocked, Silong quickly put away his martial soul, shook his head to deny it, and bowed to Qianshui and Huan Hongchen to express his apology, “Sorry, ma’am, sorry, Master Hongchen, I didn’t understand it clearly.”

Huan Hongchen didn’t expect Qianshui to really do it, but since that’s the case, she followed suit, “Okay, Silong, this is… Miss Qianhua, my friend.”

The name-giving man had no objection to the name, and smiled to show his approval.

Seeing that the other party didn’t blame him, the strong man named Silong apologized again, “Miss Qianhua, please forgive me for being so presumptuous.”

Spreading his hands, Huan Hongchen didn’t want to stay in this noisy place, “Okay, okay, don’t make fun of others, we are here to participate in the auction, can you take us there?”

“No problem, there happens to be an auction in the evening, so it’s just right, I invite you to participate in the auction tonight!” Silong said as he walked, and he also had the intention of apologizing, “As far as I know, there should be several rare and good things to be auctioned tonight, including finished products and metals.”

“That should be good!” Speaking of metal, Huan Hongchen’s eyes lit up.

Qianshui didn’t have any objections. He had only participated in one auction in his life, and he met Ning Fengzhi. Although Qian Renxue was with him for most of the way, he still went because it satisfied his curiosity.

“The teacher would be very happy if he knew you were here.”

“No, don’t let the fat guy come over, I’m tired of him!”

Qianshui, who was following, was also bored. He guessed that it was probably because of the huge gap in concepts, and the soul mentor and the blacksmith were talking nonsense.

Just as they were going up the stairs, a figure rushed towards Qianshui. Qianshui, who looked like a woman, thought it was harassment, and subconsciously turned around and kicked the person in the face.
