Chapter 858: Chapter 858: Material Store
Qin Sisi saw that Yun Wang had other intentions and didn’t want to waste more words here, so she directly said, "Since you have this in mind, next ti I see Ye You, I will convey your thoughts to him. It’s getting late; we need to go back."
After speaking, Qin Sisi turned and walked toward the door, with Xiao ng and Yun Cheng closely following behind.
Yun Wang, terrified, hurriedly jumped forward to block Qin Sisi’s path, anxiously saying, "No, no, no, Ms. Qin, you mustn’t tell His Highness about my thoughts. If he finds out, he might...he might not trust
anymore."
The Panhu family had grown from a small clan to its current status primarily because of the trust from the Jiu Xi Royal Family.
Yun Wang knew better than anyone how important Qin Sisi was to Ye You. If Qin Sisi truly told Ye You those words, Ye You would definitely feel displeased and might even lose his trust in him.
Such a situation, whether for him personally or for the Panhu family, would be a significant loss and crisis.
Qin Sisi looked at him, her face expressionless, and said, "If you care so much about his trust, why do you deliberately go against his wishes?"
"I..." Yun Wang, sowhat at a loss, looked toward Yun Cheng. Yun Cheng, taking pleasure in his misfortune, made a face at him and then nudged his chin toward Qin Sisi.
Yun Wang clenched his teeth, placed a hand over his chest, and deeply bowed to Qin Sisi, pleading, "Ms. Qin, it was a mont of confusion for . From now on, I will act entirely according to His Highness’s wishes and will not make decisions on my own again. Ah, that’s not right. I never made decisions on my own; I just had so minor thoughts, which won’t happen again."
Qin Sisi sighed inwardly. She was well aware of Yun Wang’s loyalty to Ye You, and it was actually quite normal for Yun Wang to have such thoughts. After weighing the pros and cons, having ng Yu or Ya Ling as the queen would indeed be more beneficial for Ye You.
But recalling the reluctance of Ye You when they parted, Qin Sisi was certain of his intentions; he would not give up, so she would not either.
After a mont of contemplation, Qin Sisi said gravely, "Yun Wang, there’s no need for this. I know your loyalty to His Highness. I am just as loyal to him, and I don’t need any reasons. What I want you to understand is that not everyone is like us. So people’s loyalty is conditional, and if their conditions are not t, they might turn against you at any ti. Do you really think such people make good partners?"
Yun Wang stood still, stunned. His deep bow was a helpless gesture, but the words Qin Sisi returned genuinely shocked him.
He indeed wanted Ye You to use the position of the queen to gain support from the Phantom Spirit family or the Qing Ming Family, but what about later?
If the two families, having helped Ye You ascend to the position of Sage Ruler, then demanded more benefits, what should Ye You do?
To agree would be weak and incompetent; to refuse would be ungrateful.
It was only then that Yun Wang woke up from his naive dreams like a man awakening from a dream, understanding how simplistic and na??ve his previous thoughts had been.
Just as he wanted to say a few words to Qin Sisi, he realized that she had already left, with Xiao ng and Yun Cheng following behind her. The three of them left the restaurant just as quietly and hurriedly as they had arrived.
Jing Jing said goodbye to Yun Wang, then floated away.
Yun Wang regretfully ruffled his hair, pondering for a long ti. He felt it might be better to be honest with Ye You about so things. Additionally, he probably needed to have a good talk with his grandfather.
Qin Sisi, along with Xiao ng and Yun Cheng, walked on the road back towards Heavenly Magic God’s Castle.
Xiao ng leisurely looked at the bustling roadside stalls, and crisply asked Qin Sisi, "Sister Sisi, do you need to buy anything? It’ll be half a month before we can co out again."
Just as Qin Sisi was about to reply that she needed nothing, a sudden thought about enhancing her forging skills popped into her mind. She then responded, "I want to buy so raw iron to practice my forging skills. Do you know where I can find so?"
"Sure, sure, follow !" Xiao ng grabbed Qin Sisi’s arm, leading her forward.
The three of them arrived at a shop specializing in forging materials, where Xiao ng promptly told the servant that they wanted to buy raw iron.
The servant, with a broad smile, replied, "Sure thing, how much do you plan to buy?"
Xiao ng looked at Qin Sisi, who stepped forward and asked, "How much raw iron is needed to forge a sword?"
The servant politely answered, "If it’s a regular sword, one liang is enough, but for a heavy sword, you may need two liang."
"Liang?" Qin Sisi felt puzzled by this unit.
Seeing Qin Sisi’s confusion, the servant walked to the counter, picked up sothing resembling a weight, and handed it to her, saying, "This is the weight of one liang."
Qin Sisi took it and weighed it, feeling it was around two kilograms. She gained so understanding of "liang."
After thinking it over, since her forging skills were still quite basic, she decided to start with the most ordinary sword.
Thus, she returned the weight to the servant and said, "I’ll buy fifteen liang."
The servant nodded, smiling, and said, "Alright, one liang costs ten low-grade Spirit Stones, totaling one hundred and fifty low-grade Spirit Stones, or one middle-grade Spirit Stone plus fifty low-grade Spirit Stones. I’ll get the items for you; please prepare the Spirit Stones."
Qin Sisi couldn’t help but smile; businessn were indeed businessn, quick-witted and smooth-talking.
She nodded as well and said, "Alright, no problem."
This price was sothing she could easily afford; after all, visiting the trial tower required a middle-grade Spirit Stone!
The servant briskly walked to the backyard, leaving Qin Sisi and the others waiting in the store.
Out of curiosity, Qin Sisi began to look around. She saw various materials placed behind the counter and on the walls on the left side. Unfortunately, apart from raw iron, she recognized none of them.
Qin Sisi asked Xiao ng, who could only na three or four types of materials.
Fortunately, Yun Cheng had a relatively good understanding of gold attribute materials and stepped forward to introduce each material to Qin Sisi after seeing Xiao ng’s difficulty.
For iron-based materials, besides raw iron, there were black iron, white iron, black iron, and magnetite iron, with magnetite iron being the highest grade.
Magnetite iron was categorized based on its location of formation into such types as Volcano Magnetite Iron, Ice Lake Magnetite Iron, and Deep Sea Magnetite Iron, varying in duration of existence and quality; the longer the existence, the better the quality and the higher the price.
Qin Sisi thought of the Thousand-year Black Iron Ye You had given her, which arguably was a high-grade material among irons, but unfortunately, she had forged it into two swords of diocre quality.
Besides the iron-based materials, there were also silver and gold types, with grander nas and higher prices.
These more high-end materials displayed only small sample pieces enclosed in the locked counter.
Although the servant who welcod them had gone to the backyard, two tall and strong guards stood at the door, so even though the treasures were just in front of them, no one dared to entertain any wrongful thoughts.
