Broken Night

Chapter 233 - Zhou Zhong

Jin Qianji left and returned to the palace.

Xu Yan was excitedly trying to prepare a good wine to celebrate the two of them finding the same kind in this lonely world, but a guest came to visit.

Xu Yan was sitting in the main hall, his face full of impatience: "If you have anything to say, let me go, I'm busy!" As he spoke, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Uncle Yang Prepare an extra room, someone is going to move in!"

From a distance, Yang Chun responded: "Oh! Let's go!"

The fat white boy looked strangely at Xu Yan. The impatience on Xu Yan's face became even more obvious: "Look at your constipation, what does it look like?! If it's okay, I'll see you off!"

"Yeah... don't, Brother Xu. I'll have something to do with you!" The fat white boy quickly persuaded, "My surname is Zhou, Zhou Zhong."

Xu Yan looked at Zhou Zhong up and down and nodded: "It looks really heavy, let's talk about it. Don't be a mother-in-law over there." It is to offend people and cause trouble in the city.

As for Zhou Zhong, it was the fat white boy who recognized [Yi Shan] when Huang Qiuye and Zuo Kuanglan were on the battlefield that day.

Zhou Zhong tentatively said: "I see Brother Xu taking the orders for tattoos from those tattooed Tianjiao at the outer gate of Yunfu. I don't know what achievements Brother Xu has achieved in forging?"

Xu Yan immediately asked, "What level am I doing to you? Are you kidding me to build weapons?"

Zhou Zhong hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "Although I am a practitioner of the First Palace, I am not interested in this kind of fighting. What I am interested in is business."

"Business?" Hearing this sentence, Xu Yan finally regained his energy: "Tell me about it."

Zhou Zhong laughed, with a kind smile on his face: "Xu Xiong, have you ever heard of Xuanwu auction house?" Xu Yan raised his eyebrows, those thick eyebrows and the shiny bald head created a strong contrast: " Naturally."

Zhou Zhong said slowly: "I came from the Xuanwu auction house, and for this reason, I got a place in the outer gate of Yunfu. But for me, entering the outer gate of Yunfu is just the cornerstone of breaking into the upper class. If you really want me to learn tattoo art, participate in Yunfu's apprenticeship, etc., I have no interest at all."

"That's why I like Brother Xu's forging skills."

Zhou Zhong's expression became serious, and the fat face showed a bit of seriousness: "It is known that Brother Xu is one of the few fire forging masters in the south. This time, I want to ask the truth, and I can see from it that there are fire forging masters. the possibility of cooperation.”

Xu Yan raised his eyebrows again and pondered for a moment before saying, "I am indeed a fire forge master. Since I can tailor-make it according to the tattoo artist's six palaces, his realm is naturally among the masters."

When he heard Xu Yan's admission in person, Zhou Zhong was all excited. The thirteen-year-old fire forging master, looking at the world, even the most skilled forging Fen Tianshan is not there! ?

But he still suppressed his excitement and said urgently: "Fire forgings are relatively unpopular in the south, and the reason is naturally because the south uses patterns to implant patterns, which are mild in nature, compared to pattern soldiers forged with fire. Casting and stenciling, which are forged from nature, are more suitable for tattooists in the south.”

"But Fire Forge cannot be replaced after all—because Fire Forge is highly compatible."

"Water casting, grass refining, most of the forged pattern soldiers are exercises or patterns suitable for wood and water attributes. But fire forging is not the case. Five elements, yin and yang, various attributes, fire forging can be used. It is made of various metals and materials. Even if the properties of water and wood are not as good as those of water casting and grass refining, they can still be forged. However, water casting and grass refining have great limitations. There are many attributes of tattoos that cannot be created.”

"Fire forging masters are the main path for forging masters in the world. It is only because it is too difficult to get started with fire forging, and secondly, because of the excellent climate in the south, numerous plants, and strange mountains and rivers, water forging and grass forging have become mainstream. ”

Xu Yan frowned: "I know what you said, let's focus on how you can cooperate with me."

Zhou Zhong's spirit was refreshed: "With Brother Xu's strength, it is a waste to just build weapons for the tattooists at the outer gate of Yunfu. Think about it, how many people are there in the entire Nanhuang City!? One The palace-level tattooists are the largest number of cultivators in the entire world!"

He waved his chubby hand: "You can make custom tattoos, who doesn't want it!?"

Xu Yan interrupted his speech: "The words are very beautiful, but the tattooists of the first palace stand at the lower level of the tattoo world, where can I get silver taels to order the tattoo soldiers?"

Zhou Zhong smiled: "I have an idea for this."

"On behalf of the Xuanwu auction house, I will allocate a certain number of people and set up a team to serve Brother Xu."

"It doesn't matter if you don't have silver taels. We don't just collect silver taels, any tattoos and rare materials can all be valued through our auction house's unique computing method and group calculations!"

"It's still not enough? It doesn't matter! Find your partner who is in the same palace, and you can enjoy exclusive discounts! The more units of tattooers who can customize the tattoo at the same time, the cheaper it will be!"

"Brother Xu, think about it. Now every time you find a tattoo artist, you will earn at most 10,000 taels. However, according to my method, I can find ten or twenty one palace tattoos for you in one go. Even though the benefits you get in the end are lower, it saves a lot of time!”

"This is the operation method that Zhou Zhong came up with: the group buying method!"

Xu Yan was stunned, his mind kept spinning. The more I think about it, the more feasible this method becomes! After a long time, he thought about it and said, "Well, I don't make first-order tattoo soldiers."

Zhou Zhong suddenly groaned in his heart: "Brother Xu..."

Xu Yan interrupted him again: "I can customize the second-order tattoo soldiers."

Zhou Zhong was a little confused by the pie that fell from the sky.

The public price of the first-order tattoo soldiers ranges from thousands of taels. And when it comes to the public price of the second-order tattoo, it is more than 10,000 taels. To the third-order tattoo, the public price has jumped to 200,000. The price of tattoos has always increased geometrically. Because every time you advance to the first rank, its power also increases sharply, and the requirements for the blacksmith rank are also the same.

Just like asking an artist to paint with one hand, it's not difficult.

But the difficulty of asking the painter to paint different paintings with both hands has jumped a large level.

Then the painter had to use his feet and paint three different paintings at the same time...

This is the level difference.

The same is true for tailor-made tattoos. Now Xu Yan custom made a first-order tattoo soldier, and the price was only 10,000 taels. However, if the second-order tattoo soldier is tailor-made, the price will jump directly to more than 100,000 taels!

The tattooed soldier is the second life to the tattooed person. If there is a good tattoo, it is very likely to survive a battle. For life, no one will be stingy!

"Brother Xu! What you said is true!?" Zhou Zhong didn't care so much, he directly took his hand, and the fat on his face was shaking with excitement: "If that's the case, then we're going to send it!" Xu Yan immediately struggled out of his fat hands: "I said yes, then there is so much nonsense. You have to take the fee, I have no opinion. You can decide the share of it yourself. But I have a request."
