Chapter 93 Bear Trap
Big Rock City, Falling Stone Street.
No one noticed that there was suddenly a blacksmith shop on this street.
Jingling, clanking, and the sound of metal tapping, Li Qing placed the crafted farm tools, cutters, and simple weapons on the shelves.
When he first arrived, Li Qing still opened a blacksmith shop as usual and hibernated in the city temporarily.
Miao Qi helped him buy the shop. Although Giant Rock City is the largest city in the Black Wind Region, its population is still not large.
There are still quite a few buildings in the city that are vacant. It doesn’t cost much to buy a shop as a blacksmith shop.
The shelves full of ordinary weapons and farm tools and cutting knives gave Li Qing almost a year and a half of longevity.
After finishing all this, Li Qing had nothing to do and suddenly felt free.
Taking advantage of his free time, he quickly honed the shadow-seeking footwork he had just learned.
This Qing Kung Fu combined with Qing Luo Kung did have some unexpected effects. He didn't have to deliberately train the Qi and blood in his legs.
Having practiced Qingluo Kung, he immediately had the foundation for learning this Qinggong.
Coupled with Li Qing's current level of internal energy master, who can control the whole body's energy and blood for a short period of time, the progress of this light skill suddenly became very fast.
In this way, while practicing Qinggong and passively collecting information about the city, time passed quickly.
In Giant Rock City, in addition to the two top forces, the City Lord's Mansion and the Red Fish Chamber of Commerce, there are still many large and small gangs underneath.
For example, the street where Li Qing is located is the territory of a group called the Sand Crocodile Gang. Every time the rye mushrooms mature, his shop has to hand over some food or two money crystals to the gang.
It’s not much. Li Qing has no objection at all. As long as the members of the Sand Crocodile Gang come to collect money, he will pay it.
Unfortunately, what surprised Li Qing was that even though there were many gangs, Giant Rock City was as peaceful as a pool of stagnant water.
The expected gang wars and land grabs never happened.
The two top forces, the Red Fish Chamber of Commerce and the City Lord's Mansion, are also at peace with each other. The relationship between them is surprisingly good, and there is no dispute at all.
This made Li Qing a little helpless. If life really stayed like this, wouldn't he really be a blacksmith here?
"Could it be that the Red Fish Chamber of Commerce is really just an ordinary chamber of commerce? Then why are they collecting beasts from the Sunshine Age in such a big way?"
Li Qing murmured to himself, looking at His eyes flickered slightly.
What concerned him the most was, of course, the novel species of the pig.
He would not believe that the Red Fish Merchant would collect beasts to ensure the integrity of the species. Who in this world would do such a thing if they were full.
After waiting like this for almost a month, something different happened in the giant rock city that was like a pool of stagnant water.
On this day, many members of the Sand Crocodile Gang came to Li Qing's blacksmith shop.
"Master Li, how have you been doing these days? Is your business going well?"
A few young people with scornful faces walked into Li Qing's shop, and Li Qing recognized them at a glance. These people were the bottom gangsters of the Sand Crocodile Gang.
Li Qing would never look down on these gangsters who only knew the martial arts skills of two-handed and three-legged cats.
But you still have to look like this: "Hey, I'm dragging you down, I can barely make ends meet."
"I remember it's not time to pay the test fee yet, who are coming?"
< br>The next words of a few local ruffians made Li Qing's heart move slightly.
"Hey, I'm not here to collect money, I'm here to do business with you today."
"That's right, our Sand Crocodile Gang is going to order a batch of ironware from you. Li Qing said calmly: "Oh? What kind of iron is it and what is it used for?"
“Bring it up and show it to Master Li.” The leader waved his hand.
Soon, a rusty, tattered and shapeless animal trap was placed in front of Li Qing.
It can be seen that this animal trap is old and is covered with dust, making it difficult to identify.
"How about Master Li, do you recognize this thing? It's called a bear trap. Can you make it?" The leader looked at Li Qing expectantly.
Li Qing's answer certainly did not disappoint him. He said: "Well, it shouldn't be difficult to see the structure. I can try it and I should be able to do it."
Hearing this assurance, The people from the Sand Crocodile Gang immediately said with satisfaction: "Let me just say, this newly opened blacksmith shop definitely has two brushes. It is not like the blacksmiths in other streets who only forge farm tools."
"Li Master, please give me a price. We need about ten of these animal traps. Can it be cheaper?"
Give me a price?
Li Qing had no sense of identification with these blood-sucking worms who made a living by collecting protection fees. He immediately said: "Including the loss of trying to make it, um... fifteen money crystals each!"
He didn't go too far, he just raised the price on a similar basis.
Including the loss of trying, they received a total of one hundred and fifty money crystals, which was not a small amount of money. It could barely buy a pig sold by the Red Fish Merchant Guild.
A few people from the Sand Crocodile Gang struggled for a while, and finally agreed.
"Okay, that's the price. When you get it done, let us know to come and pick it up, try to be as quick as possible!"
After saying that, these people from the Sand Crocodile Gang started Leaving Li Qing's blacksmith shop.
Li Qing watched them leave, his eyes flickering for a while.
“Make a bear trap? Do you want to go hunting?”
There is currently a stable supply of armored pigs in the city. Although the price is a bit expensive, it is definitely considered a good meat. source.
It took one hundred and fifty Qian Jings to order a batch of animal traps. This initial investment was not small.
You must know that the Red Fish Merchant Association purchases a beast from the Sunshine Age for an average of about three to four hundred gold crystals.
If you don't catch it, it will be a complete loss. After all, this bear trap is not a value-preserving item and will get rusty and damaged!
Just when Li Qing was about to find out what happened in the city recently, someone came to his blacksmith shop that surprised him.
Miao Qi walked in excitedly, and he said: "Brother Li, our gang leader recently sent a letter. He asked me to be stationed in Giant Rock City to cooperate with all your actions. Whatever needs to be done, just tell me That’s fine.”
Li Qing glanced at Miao Qi in surprise, and then immediately laughed.
I was really sleepy and someone gave me a pillow, which came just in time.
"Just in time, would you like to find out some information? Recently, Sand Crocodile helped me order a batch of bear traps to help me find out their purpose."
"Remember to be smart and don't be too deliberate."
Miao Qi’s eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: “No problem, keep it with me!”
After saying that, he quickly left the blacksmith shop, his body still there when he left. Trembling slightly.
Could it be that the gang leader decided to extend his hands and feet to Giant Rock City?
When Li Qing planned to seize the Yan family and take over the entire Obsidian City for the Righteous Gang, he was very familiar with this matter.
Could it be that he finally had the opportunity to participate in such an important operation?
Thinking of this, Miao Qi clenched his fists, as if he saw the bright road that belonged to him in the future.
