Capítulo 1077: Chapter 738: Five Years, Breakthrough
“Just tell how many Spirit Stones!” Yang Zhenshan said boldly.
“For the soft armor, each set will cost seven Spirit Stones. As for the hard armor~~” Qiu Jin hesitated a mont before saying, “Sixty Spirit Stones per set!”
Yang Zhenshan was montarily stunned by the price.
This snake skin could only fetch about ten Spirit Stones in sales, yet he would have to add three hundred more Spirit Stones to make spirit armor out of it.
Damn, is this reasonable?
“Isn’t this snake skin only worth ten Spirit Stones?”
Yang Zhenshan really wanted to ask, does it deserve this?
Qiu Jin coughed lightly and said, “If Brother Yang wishes to sell the snake skin, I can offer twelve Spirit Stones!”
“What do you an?” Yang Zhenshan felt a bit puzzled.
Qiu Jin smiled bitterly and said, “Perhaps Brother Yang doesn’t fully understand, we are selling craftsmanship here!”
“…”
Yang Zhenshan was utterly speechless.
So that’s the reason.
It’s all about technological monopoly; they are selling skill, not Spiritual Material.
That’s the Rune Secret Skill.
Suddenly, Yang Zhenshan’s desire for the Rune Secret Skill reached a new height.
Damn, if he also possessed a complete inheritance of the Rune Secret Skill, wouldn’t he be able to achieve a technological monopoly too?
“Five sets of soft armor, five sets of hard armor; it will take at least three months to complete, and during these three months, I won’t be able to take any other business!”
“Brother Yang, bear with , I also need to make a living!”
Qiu Jin said.
What more could Yang Zhenshan say? Qiu Jin was already being honest; if it were the workshop in the county city, the price would definitely be higher.
“Alright, let’s do as you said. I’ll give you a hundred Spirit Stones as a deposit, and I’ll co back for the spirit armor in three months!”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Jin’s awkward expression vanished without a trace. He cheerfully collected the snake skin from the counter.
Sly rchant, sly rchant, an honest man’s lifelong business will eventually beco cunning.
The so-called awkwardness was rely superficial.
After stepping out of Spirit Fla Foundry, Yang Zhenshan thought carefully, suddenly turning his head toward the foundry behind him.
Damn, this artifact refining workshop must have an annual inco of no less than a thousand Spirit Stones!
Even if business is a bit poor, there should still be several hundred Spirit Stones, right?
By comparison, wasn’t the Lingxi Yang Family making less than twenty Spirit Stones annually before?
No, that’s not right; it shouldn’t have been that much. Crafting spirit armor is much more troubleso than crafting spiritual weapons, so the fees are naturally higher. If it’s just spiritual weapons, the workmanship fee is only a few Spirit Stones.
In this way, Qiu Jin should earn at least two or three hundred Spirit Stones each year.
This single order of his is roughly equivalent to Qiu Jin’s annual inco.
Indeed, farming doesn’t make money; having skills is more lucrative!
After drawing this conclusion, Yang Zhenshan imdiately headed to the stalls in the workshop market.
Technology is the primary productive force!
Though science is not much discussed here, runes are the primary productive force!
Now he understood plainly, anything associated with runes is expensive.
Runes are like characters; each rune has its unique power and ability. Combining several runes produces different effects.
The question now is, can the functions of various runes be deciphered through research?
Just like researching oracle bone script, study the runes?
It’s conceivable that this is an imnsely complex field of study, but then again, examining it wouldn’t hurt.
The Spirit Origin space has plenty of learned people, perfect for giving them sothing to do.
Primarily, he currently has no path to obtain rune heritage, even Qiu Jin’s rune heritage is beyond his reach, so he can only resort to this clumsy thod.
He headed to the stalls instead of the shops because the stalls have all sorts of miscellaneous items.
Among them were broken spiritual weapons, spirit armors, and similar objects.
Though these things are mostly useless junk, so still have remnants of runes on them, useful for researching various runes.
The key is that these items are cheap; buying a bunch doesn’t cost much more than a few Spirit Stones.
Yang Zhenshan found a stall, picking through a pile of junk to select so fragnts that still retained fairly intact runes.
“How much for these?”
The stall owner was a young man, appearing to be in his twenties.
“Twenty Spirit Crystals are enough,” the young man said.
Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, then took out twenty Spirit Crystals and handed them to the young man, casually asking, “Where did you collect these from?”
“Near the Ancient Field Mountain to the north!” the young man didn’t keep it a secret, instead openly chatting, “It’s said that a major battle happened there a hundred years ago, leaving many fragnted armants.”
Ancient Field Mountain?
Yang Zhenshan thought for a mont. Indeed, such a place existed, about two hundred miles from Nanxia County, roughly at the junction of Ancient County and Cold Valley County.
Actually, these fragnts aren’t entirely useless; they can be lted down and reforged, though it’s quite labor-intensive.
Generally, an Artifact Refiner with so skill wouldn’t take on such work, while those without skills can only craft ordinary armants and highly value these items.
“If you find more fragnts with intact runes like these, you can co directly to Lingxi Mountain to find . One Spirit Crystal per piece, I’ll take as many as you have!” Yang Zhenshan said.
“Really?” The young man showed a delighted expression.
“Yes, really. Lingxi Mountain is twenty miles north, and I am the Family Head of the Lingxi Yang Family, Yang Zhenshan!”
“Junior Geng Zhuang pays respects to Senior Yang!” Geng Zhuang was both surprised and pleased.
