Chapter 187 Slate Gold Hair
The huge, rough [Blacksmiths Association General Assembly] does not have any gorgeous decorations, and there are no guards at the gate.
At this time, there was a constant flow of people coming and going. The three doors were open, and the bustling flow of people inside could be seen from the outside.
At the door, Xiang Guyun looked at the backs of Ling Yi and Yang Xueli walking inside, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
"Is this...soul master——?"
Xiang Guyun murmured in a low voice, turned his head, met a pair of huge pupils, and couldn't help but ask: "Taxue, tell me honestly, Brother Yi...has really become a soul master?"
Hearing this question, Taxue rolled his big eyes upwards and snorted, completely ignoring Xiang Gu Yun's words.
But the little eyes seemed to say, didn't the 'mistress' just say it? Of course the master has become a soul master!
Next to her, Yang Shirley's bay-red horse looked at the 'interacting' Xiang Guyun and Ta Xue, confused and ignorant.
Xiang Guyun didn’t expect a horse in the snow to be able to answer his questions, but that look just now was contempt, right? It’s really contempt, right?
"Okay -!"
With a shout, Xiang Guyun stopped thinking about it and took the reins of Tuxue and the bay-red horse, pulling the black and red horses to the rear of the association. placement.
In the lobby on the first floor of the association, Ling Yi put on the blacksmith badge that Lou Gao personally handed over to him a few years ago. He and Yang Xueli did not rush to find Lou Gao, but just like ordinary guests, making noise here In the environment, wander around with the flow of people.
This is a completely open hall. Except for the huge pillars supporting the building, it is an empty space. There is just a large circle of counters in the outermost circle next to the wall. Behind the counter are various finished products cast by blacksmiths.
After looking for a while, Ling Yi discovered that the hall on this floor is mainly divided into two areas. On the left are blacksmiths selling various finished products on consignment, while on the right are various metals. trading area.
When reminiscing with Xiang Guyun, Ling Yi learned from the other party that the Blacksmith Association would charge a 5% handling fee for transactions here.
Compared with the 10% commission of the auction house, the commission here is much lower, so there are many blacksmiths at the blacksmith level who come here to consign their works. After all, there is a lot of traffic here, and they are basically merchants from all over the place. If you like any items, you can directly bid for them.
“Brother Yi, this place is more lively than the hypermarket in Longxing City!”
Looking at the lively scene of inquiries and negotiations in front of her, Yang Xueli couldn’t help but recall the past When I was in "Longxing City", I couldn't help but say to Ling Yi beside me.
"It's more lively~" Ling Yi nodded and chuckled: "However, it should be said that each has its own characteristics."
"'Longxing City' serves as the trade bridge between [Star Luo Empire] and [Tian Dou Empire]. In the hypermarket over there, there are all kinds of goods sold."
" And here," Ling Yi looked around, and continued: "Almost all are made of various metals, or raw materials of ores..."
"I took a look, and the prices of the things here are higher than other products. The price is a bit higher, about 5%, and the association’s handling fee should be added.”
“But the merchants who buy are not at a disadvantage, and they can put it on the table here. The products should be identified and evaluated by the association before the price is listed. The products purchased are genuine and worth the money. "
"After all, buying the same thing elsewhere will not be worth it. The quality cannot be guaranteed, and you may be cheated at some point..."
The two of them watched and talked all the way until they arrived at the side stairwell of the first floor hall. There were two guards here. Their eyes paused for a moment on the blacksmith badge on Ling Yi's chest, and looked at Ling Yi's young and handsome face with some surprise.
Ling Yi responded with a warm smile and nodded.
The two guards didn't say anything, they nodded in the same way, smiled back, and let Ling Yi and the others go.
With the eyesight of the two of them, they can naturally see that the blacksmith badge on Ling Yi's chest is definitely authentic. Although Ling Yi's face looks very young, with the power of martial arts, as long as the strength is high, Keeping your face younger is not a particularly magical thing. Climbing up the stairs, Ling Yi introduced it to Yang Xueli at the right time: "I heard from Senior Brother Lou Gao before that the club is divided into five floors. The first floor is the trading area, and the blacksmiths will take their proud works or some metals. Come here to trade. Of course, there are also traders who specialize in selling various metals, including the ones you just saw——
The second floor is the high-end trading area, and rare metals are generally traded on the second floor. The third floor is the blacksmith registration and assessment area, which is dedicated to the blacksmith level assessment. The fourth floor is the VIP area and the auction area, where some particularly precious and rare casting items are regularly auctioned. The fifth floor is the office area of the [Blacksmiths Association]..."
Behind the two of them, at the stairwell of the first floor, two guards listened to Ling Yi's words coming from above and looked at each other.
"Just now..." The guard on the left couldn't help but look back at Ling Yi and the two of them who had already stepped onto the second floor, and asked his companions: "Did that handsome young man mention anything? As a president? "
Listening to this voice that seemed a little erratic due to surprise, the guard on the right also responded in a daze: "Well... it seems... it is... right -"
It can’t be the same name, right?
The guard on the right thought to himself, but the name 'Lou Gao' was still mentioned here in the [Blacksmiths Association], so it didn't seem like the same name -
The problem is, that young man seems to be Call me President...Senior Brother? !
On the second floor, Ling Yi didn't pay attention to the two guards at the stairs just now. He fell into a trance because of the 'Senior Brother Lou Gao' in his words. He took Yang Xueli and did not go directly to the second floor to go to the third floor. Instead of walking down the stairs, I wandered around on the second floor.
Compared with the lobby on the first floor, the second floor is not that high, and it is not completely open, but divided into shops. There is a sidewalk about five meters wide between the two rows of shops. In the wide area, there are at least hundreds of shops on the second floor.
However, although there are many shops, it is not noisy here, and it is much quieter than downstairs.
Obviously, those who can open a store in the high-end trading area on the second floor have a certain background. There is no need to shout and shout like downstairs, and they only need to wait for merchants who know the goods to come.
First, I took a quick look at the various exquisite works in the finished product area. Even Ling Yi was inspired by some of them. After realizing that I had gained something, Ling Yi finally stepped into the store that specializes in selling various products. In the area of metals and raw materials.
"Fine gold, silver marrow, copper mother, black iron, tungsten steel, purple gleaming stone, water Yingsha..."
In the metal area, Ling Yi looked at each cherished The metal minerals were placed in the most conspicuous position, with words in his mouth and undisguised joy in his eyes.
Next to her, Shirley Yang looked at Ling Yi's appearance and smiled sincerely.
"Huh?"
In front of a certain store, Ling Yi stopped and looked at the pieces of mineral raw materials on the shelves inside.
After taking a closer look, Ling Yi walked into the store and went straight to the shelf she had noticed before, her eyes locked on the crystals in the bottom layer.
It was a piece of crystal about the size of a baby's head, with some turbidity. If you just looked at the crystal, it seemed that it was of very poor quality, not very transparent, and it was somewhat yellowish and impure in color.
However, within this crystal, there is a large area of golden light shining.
"Guest, this is a piece of "plate crystal hair gold". If you want it, I will give you one thousand, two hundred gold soul coins." "
At this moment, a young man in his twenties walked up to Ling Yi, stood two meters away, and said politely.
"Oh? "Ling Yi heard this, looked away from the turbid crystal, looked at the young man, smiled and said: "Twelve hundred gold soul coins are not expensive. I wonder what the boss calls him? "
At this time, the young man's eyes stayed on the blacksmith badge on Ling Yi's chest. After hearing Ling Yi's question, he looked at Ling Yi as if he had just woken up from a dream, and subconsciously said: "My name is Silong..."
