Chapter 124: Monster and Rotten Cow
This was Jiang Lin's first time "shopping" in this world, which was very new.
He was not in a hurry and started wandering around the store.
Most of the items sold here are weapons, as well as some items similar to handicrafts, and only a few are materials.
The weapons are of very average quality, and most of them can't even compare to standard weapons.
There are not many types of materials, only two or three, among which ordinary iron accounts for the majority.
There are two things left, one is the black crystal iron that I have seen before, and the other is something called snow spirit soil.
According to the guy, this thing is made by covering the surface and calcining it again after the weapon is made. After that, the cold resistance will be increased.
From a literal point of view, the effect is better than nothing, but the price is hundreds of times more expensive than ordinary iron.
A handful the size of a fist cost more than three hundred taels of silver. Jiang Lin was a little stunned when he saw it.
"How can this thing be worth so much?" Jiang Lin asked puzzledly: "Don't you mark the price randomly?"
“The guest officer is joking, we clearly mark the prices, so we are fair and square!”
The clerk explained: "Don't underestimate this snow spirit soil. Although it only adds some cold resistance, it won't be used most of the time. But you have to know that if a weapon wants to have other characteristics, it needs to be a treasure weapon to start with. That’s a good thing that can only be bought for a thousand taels.”
"And this snow spirit soil only costs a mere three hundred taels, and it can have the ability to be like a treasure weapon. How expensive is it?"
Jiang Lin had nothing to say. Judging from the rarity of the characteristics, three hundred taels was indeed not expensive.
But compared with the long knife he made with the fangs of the demon python, the fire poison, which was not powerful at first, now looks simply amazing!
Jiang Lin had no interest in Xue Lingtu, so he asked about the price of Xuanjing Iron.
The result was also staggering. It was as big as a fingernail and cost thirty taels of silver.
Based on the large piece that Yuan Bingqi gave previously, wouldn't it cost several hundred taels?
Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel a little sick. These blacksmithing materials were all extremely expensive, but the price of ordinary iron was relatively normal.
The clerk added: "My guest doesn't know much about blacksmithing at first glance. Except for ordinary iron, other materials are not easy to find. This Xuanjing iron is not expensive anymore. It is really a rare material. The beans are a little bigger. Selling them A few thousand taels of silver is normal.”
For ordinary blacksmiths, it is impossible for ordinary blacksmiths to create treasure weapons, spiritual weapons, or even higher-grade weapons.
Only rare and high-quality materials are available, but because the production volume is small and there are many people who want to buy them, the price remains high.
Jiang Lin originally thought that with seven hundred taels of silver, he could buy a lot of good things, but now it seems that he thought too much.
Leaving the store slightly disappointed, Jiang Lin went to several other stores and finally came out with eyes wide open.
There are some materials available in several other stores, but the general price is more than a thousand taels.
In the words of the man, these are all good materials used to build treasure weapons, so naturally they cannot be cheap.
Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He could use ordinary iron to build a second-grade weapon. Are treasure weapons really that rare?
Yet this is indeed the case.
Wandering around the streets, I heard shouts in my ears.
"The fresh remains of monsters can be used as medicine, forged into weapons, or made into armor. Come and take a look."
Jiang Lin raised his head and saw that it was a shop selling miscellaneous goods. A huge monster head hung at the door, still dripping blood.
Many people were watching the excitement at the door. Monsters usually do not attack the city on their own initiative. They are not stupid either. They know that there are masters here.
Therefore, the vast majority of ordinary people, as long as they have nothing to do, go to the deep mountains and forests and remote areas, otherwise they will rarely have the chance to see live monsters.
Jiang Lin walked over and saw the waiter introducing him: "This beast is called Fu Niu. It is a demon beast that is bred by Yin Qi. Although it has not reached the third level, it has a power comparable to that of the third level. Now in order to reward the guests, I only need five hundred taels." You can take the whole thing away with the money.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sneer from the side: "Why do we think we have never seen a monster? Rotten cow is the most sinister evil. Unless it is a serious disease, it is difficult to use as medicine. If you eat it, you will die." "As for making weapons, armor , it’s even more nonsense. If you really wear it, you may be attacked by the Yin Qi in a few days and die.”
"You want to sell this for five hundred taels of silver? No one wants fifty taels!"
The guy's face was red, but he had nothing to say.
Monsters and rotten cows are very weird.
There are very few who enter the third level, and it is difficult for living people to use it. It is a tasteless thing.
Seeing that everyone watching the fun was scoffing and preparing to leave, the waiter couldn't help but grimace. He was new here and didn't know much about monsters.
Previously, when the shopkeeper was away and someone came to sell a monster beast, he took it upon himself to buy it for a hundred taels.
Thinking that it is a monster after all, no matter what kind it is, one hundred taels is definitely not expensive.
Afterwards, the shopkeeper scolded him so much that if he didn't get the money back, he would break his legs and burn down his house.
Seeing that everyone was about to disappear, the waiter looked sad and didn't know what else to do.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
At this time, a voice came into my ears: "Do you want to sell it for fifty taels?"
The waiter raised his head and saw a muscular young man standing in front of him, looking curiously at the rotten cow.
He quickly said: "Sell! Do you want to buy?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I ask you?" Jiang Lin took out fifty taels of silver and handed it over directly.
Seeing how happy he was, the clerk couldn't help but hesitate, wondering if he should take the opportunity to raise the price.
Although Jiang Lin didn't look at him, he seemed to be able to sense the other person's thoughts and said softly: "You'd better not be nagging, otherwise I'm going to leave and this thing will really fall into your hands."
The waiter's heart skipped a beat as he realized that although this man looked like a young man, he was very sophisticated and not someone to be deceived easily.
He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Fifty taels is fifty taels, take it!"
Although I still lost one book, my family scraped together everything and could barely make it together.
Jiang Lin didn't say much, stretched out his hand to pick up the rotten cow, put it on his shoulder, and left directly.
The man looked at his leaving back and opened his mouth to speak, but then stopped.
The yin energy of the rotten cow is too strong, so you cannot touch it casually, otherwise the illness will be mild, and if it is serious, you will die suddenly at any time.
But considering that I have lost all my pants, I can’t think of reminding others.
Jiang Lin didn't know this either, he just felt that the monster was cold and comfortable on his shoulders.
Little did he know that his oven method was the nemesis of this type of monster.
The fire essence in the body is at its peak, let alone the second-grade rotten cow, what if it is the third-grade?
When people along the way saw this sturdy young man carrying a monster beast and a rotten cow, they all hurriedly avoided him.
Some well-meaning people would give a few reminders, but most people looked at Jiang Lin's back and chose to ignore it, and even privately discussed whether the young man might have been killed by Yin Qi halfway.
Just like this, he carried the rotten cow back to the blacksmith camp. Blacksmith Qi, who had just come out of the house, couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw it.
"Oh my God, what did you bring back here?"
