Chapter 23 The City Lord Arrives
"The second underground floor is flooded by water, so the matter of a secret passage on the second underground floor can be concealed more thoroughly. With my current ability, I can breathe normally in water without much lethality. If I really encounter danger, it may be safer to walk through this hidden waterway."
Ye Tianxiang couldn't tell the truth, but he felt it was necessary to comfort Lu Jingui and told him not to take the matter of flooding the second floor of the underground to heart.
"Thank you for your understanding." Seeing that Ye Tianxiang had no intention of blaming him, Lu Jingui felt a little better, but his determination to do things for Ye Tianxiang was more determined than before.
"You have picked up my life. When we are the only two of us together in the future, don't be too polite. Just like when I lived with you before, you call me 'boy', which will make people feel more intimate."
Ye Tianxiang smiled and said, "By the way, has something major happened in Ning'an City these days when I was not here?"
"Nothing happened. But I found out that the people who secretly followed our shop had a lot more than the days after the renovation was just completed." Lu Jingui said respectfully.
Hearing Lu Jingui's words, Ye Tianxiang immediately realized that Lu Jingui's sensing ability was many times stronger than before, so he knew that he had made great progress in the practice of "Ghost Shadow Meteor Art", and was not far from becoming a magician.
However, Ye Tianxiang did not mention this matter, but talked casually with Lu Jingui for a few words, went to the underground space, took out the casting furnace, threw it into the divine power stone, and refined some first-level magical artifacts he obtained.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye.
Ye Tianxiang’s shop ushered in the opening day.
Before dawn every day, Ye Tianxiang handed over a batch of artifacts and equipment to Lu Jingui, asking him to help distribute the goods and welcome the time to open the door.
The artifact equipment that Ye Tianxiang refines has no marks of the original artifact equipment, and even the runes that carved the artifact's ability contained in the artifact were forcibly erased.
He was convinced that even if these artifacts and equipment were sent to the True God for identification by someone, the True God could not recognize them. These artifacts and equipment were re-refined objects, and would think that these artifacts were new goods refined with brand new materials.
After two days of busyness, Ye Tianxiang just rushed back to the furnace to refine more than 20 first-level low-grade artifact equipment and five first-level medium-grade artifact equipment.
However, this time, the artifacts and equipment that Ye Tianxiang refines are slightly worse than those that he has refined.
For example, if he refines these artifacts and equipment according to the level of refining magical tools for himself, then this batch of first-level low-grade artifacts and equipment can be comparable to the first-level medium-grade artifacts and equipment refined by others.
All the artifacts and equipment he refined this time were only one percentage higher than the artifacts and equipment of the same level refined by others, and were slightly worse than the artifacts and equipment of the same level.
Ye Tianxiang did this, first, to prevent others from wearing the artifacts and equipment he cast to deal with him, and second, to avoid the disadvantaged casters, from the highest quality artifacts and equipment he refined, and thus to know the fact that he is the inheritor of the true master of Miaoshou.
It was dawn, and Ye Tianxiang did not intend to show up, so he let Lu Jingui, who had finished the distribution, handle the transactions in the store alone.
However, as soon as Lu Jingui opened the door, he saw that the store was blocked tightly. If Liao Jiming had not lined up more than a hundred soldiers to maintain public order in front of the door, these people would have long since crossed the threshold of the store.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Jingui was stunned and asked in confusion: "There are at least thousands of shops selling finished artifacts and equipment in Ning'an City today. Why did these buyers all come to our newly opened store today? What is most surprising is that these soldiers who maintain public order came uninvited to maintain public order in front of us. This is really surprising!"
Lu Jingui, who had never seen a big scene, was stunned by the scene in front of him.
After being stunned, Lu Jingui quickly closed the door again, and then invited Ye Tianxiang to take charge of the overall situation himself.
Ye Tianxiang heard that the store was crowded. If there weren't soldiers maintaining public order, something might have happened. He felt very confused for a moment, "The only people who know the opening date of my store are Zuo Miaoyin. Could it be that these people have received invitations from Zuo Miaoyin to give Zuo Miaoyin face and support me? Is this the surprise that Zuo Miaoyin wants to give me?"
After hearing Lu Jingui's words, Ye Tianxiang frowned, followed Lu Jingui and went downstairs calmly, went to the front hall of the store, and asked Lu Jingui to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, various mixed breaths of divine power and energy fluctuated in the face.
Just based on the captured breath that floated into the store, Ye Tianxiang judged that this almost blocked the entire street in front of the store, and none of them were ordinary urbanites, but all of them were magicians.
"If all of these people rushed forward, even if I, Ye Tianxiang, had super abilities, I, was probably unstoppable. Why would these magicians come here at this time?"
While he was puzzled, Ye Tianxiang slowly walked to the store door, glanced around, remembered the faces of these people in his heart, and then nodded calmly to Liao Jiming, who was commanding the soldiers and maintaining public order. After saying hello, he said to the gods and magicians present: "Seniors, you are all powerful magicians. The shop opens today. The items sold are all divine equipment suitable for small god-level figures, and the number is limited, only more than twenty pieces. Therefore, please leave for senior friends who cannot use such magical equipment, so that my small shop can open normally."
"No matter the quality or price of what you sell, I will accept everything at the price of Yongxingtang." A middle-aged man in a yellow robe among the crowd, when he saw Ye Tianxiang appear, he shouted loudly.
"I paid twice the price of 'Shengkangtang' and bought it all." Yang Di, who was standing on the other side, turned his head and looked at the "Yongxingtang" person, and then loudly expressed their intention to acquire all the items cast by Ye Tianxiang.
"'Jinxiutang' has a price of five times the purchase." Hu Zheqing felt very uncomfortable that Yang Di could step ahead of him and step into the Divine Guard level. In order to overwhelm his thoughts in some aspects, he directly quoted the acquisition price without obtaining the consent of the person who led the team.
"All these guys are crazy, aren't they? Is the artifacts and equipment cast in this small shop really worth their purchase at a high cost?"
"The power behind this small shop owner is definitely not simple. The three major chambers of commerce are rushing to acquire the garbage equipment he sells, probably to win over the owner of this small shop, and then contact the power behind him through him."
...
The people from the three major chambers of commerce were unaware of the purchase price when they offered the purchase price, but the magicians who really wanted to buy artifacts and equipment were all thinking in their hearts.
Moreover, everyone also understood in their hearts that it was impossible for them, such as the vulnerable groups who did not rely on any power, to buy the magical equipment they wanted from this small store.
"The people from these three chambers of commerce are really interesting. They also do this kind of business that is stable and unprofitable. It seems that that night, I was revealed by the 'other people's mouth', and the identity of the 'Flying Eagle Castle' has been heard by the people of the three chambers of commerce. These three chambers of commerce are indeed not what I see on the surface, they are a piece of iron. And they all have eyeliners in each other. To cultivate a force that is loyal to me, it requires a lot of crystal coins. Since you insist on giving me money to spend like this, I, Ye Tianxiang, have no reason to reject your kindness."
After looking at the people in front of him again, Ye Tianxiang was silent for a moment, and then said calmly: "The artifacts and equipment sold in this store are generally one percentage higher than the artifacts of the same grade. For example, in general stores, the first-level low-quality artifacts and equipment sold can only increase the wearer by two percent strength and defense, while the artifacts and equipment sold in this store can increase the wearer by three percent strength and defense. It is precisely because I have such a batch of goods in hand that I dare to open a finished artifact and equipment trading store in front of this Founder Training Academy."
No matter how high the percentage of the artifacts and equipment of the same level is, the divine power and energy consumed when activates are the same.
Divine power and energy are the key to the magician's victory over his opponent.
Therefore, all magicians, as far as possible, will choose to wear artifacts that consume less energy but can achieve their combat power and defense power to the highest level.
After hearing Ye Tianxiang's introduction, all the magicians present were shocked. "Even three-star and four-star artifact founders want to refine artifact equipment that exceeds the percentage base of ordinary artifact equipment, the probability is only one in ten thousand. Why is the artifact equipment and percentage base sold in his store generally a little higher than the artifact equipment sold on the market today?"
Just when the people from the three chambers of commerce were willing to offer the offer again, hoping to give Ye Tianxiang some benefits, and then discuss the cooperation matters, a high-pitched man's voice came over at the end of the street: "The city lord is here!"
