Chapter 6
“Can’t you learn to collect?” Ye Xu asked.
“No, we asked.” Gusuli said regretfully.
Ye Xu was a little disappointed, but he still wanted to try. Maybe his luck value can play a role in letting the other party relax. Moreover, he was recommended by the lady boss. The lady boss said that he could ask a blacksmith to help him if he had something to do. He was just teaching a gathering technique, and the other party had no reason to refuse.
But Ye Xu was still a little strange, why Sarah kindly reminded him to go to the blacksmith and sell him a favor. Could it be that the account lucky value is at work again? Is luck so useful in this game? No wonder, when creating an account, a dice was specially made for players to check in advance.
This is to block the mouths of the players in advance. If there are Africans who are jealous of others’ European temperament, there is no reason to spray game companies. Who told the non-Echiefs to not bother to get a European Emperor account when they built their own accounts and then enter the game, the officials have sent the dice to you, who is to blame if you don’t make good use of them.
Ye Xu thought about it for a while, edited this discovery into text and sent it to his brothers. Although my brother and he are not in the same novice village, they know each other’s game name and have added friends, so they can communicate with each other at any time.
After sending it, he followed Gusuli to the blacksmith and tried to talk to the blacksmith: “Mr. Eric, Miss Sarah said that you are a warm-hearted person, can you do me a favor?”
Seeing a newcomer come to try it, everyone is excited to watch. However, they didn’t think Ye Xu would succeed, but they didn’t expect that Ye Xu opened his mouth to ask the NPC to help him.
The onlookers were at a loss: what is this operation, want to issue a quest to the NPC, and also want the NPC to help him fight monsters and do the quest?
They were all prepared that Ye Xu would be sprayed back, this uncle of the blacksmith was not very good-tempered.
But I didn’t expect the blacksmith to actually take care of Ye Xu: “Sarah asked you to come? Well, for the sake of Miss Sarah, you can make a modest request to me.”
Ye Xu keenly smelled a little ambiguity, it seemed that he didn’t feel wrong, there was a story between these two NPCs.
Alas.
“Mr. Eric, you are really a generous person.” Ye Xu continued to put on a high hat for him, and was willing to explain his intentions after complimenting him, “My request is very simple, I hope you can teach me the collection technique.”
Hearing such a small request, the blacksmith didn’t frown, nodded and agreed: “It’s not difficult for me, but you need to spend 1 silver coin to learn it.”
Compared to the minting of 1 gold coin, 1 silver is simply super cheap. It was only 100 copper coins, and Ye Xu earned it by doing two tasks.
He paid the money without hesitation, and learned the collection technique he was thinking about.
After learning, he glanced at Gusuli and wondered if he should try to ask others to come and learn. But being insatiable may make NPCs disgusted, so Ye Xu thought for a while, and tentatively said: “I wonder if I can ask you a question?”
“You ask.” The blacksmith responded casually.
“Please forgive my offense, I’m curious as to why you don’t want to teach other people the art of gathering.”
This question really did not arouse the blacksmith’s disgust. The other party didn’t hesitate at all, and answered him directly: “Because the gathering technique is worthless, I can’t make much money by teaching it, so I just want to teach the blacksmithing technique that makes money.”
Ye Xu: “…”
Dare to love, he is thinking of a small abacus that he will not open for three years and eat for three years, so he sits on the ground and raises the price, deliberately making forging so expensive. It seems that the uncle of the blacksmith should have no business acumen and does not understand the truth of small profits but quick turnover.
And the equipment in his shop is sold for one or two silver coins, why can’t he despise the learning fee of 1 silver coin?
Ye Xu decided to try to talk (suddenly) serve (you) to the blacksmith: “I wonder if you would like to teach my friend the art of gathering at the price of 2 silver coins? You see, no one has learned the art of forging for so long, which means that everyone They are all poor, and they can’t save so much money for the time being. Although the gathering technique is cheap, it is better to earn a little bit than nothing at all, right?”
Hearing the words, the blacksmith hesitated for a while, and felt that it was indeed the case. But teaching this kind of life occupation is quite troublesome. If everyone comes to learn it, but only gives a few silver coins, he still feels very disadvantaged.
So after weighing it again and again, he gritted his teeth: “Okay, I agree! But I only teach ten people, and only your friends can come to learn. This is what I see for you in Sarah’s face, next time When you see her, remember to say two more good words for me.”
“Of course, thank you for your help.” Ye Xu responded without saying a word, just a word.
Moreover, it is hard to say whether they can gather ten professional life players from his brother’s guild in this village, and it is estimated that they will have to pull combat players to make up the number in the end. Such a cheap collection technique, if you pass this village, there will be no such shop, and you won’t learn it for nothing.
The other players who were watching the lively around were all regretful at the moment. If they knew that Sarah could let the blacksmith relax, they would never stand here. Now that Ye Xu and his friends have been cheapened in vain, many professional players in the guild have changed their faces and bury their heads in reporting to their own management.
Fortunately, this is only a small gathering technique, so it is not a big problem for the Yeyin Guild to be the first to learn it. So these people didn’t pay much attention to Ye Xu, they just remembered the existence of such a person, thinking that Ye Xu was just an ordinary member of the Yeyin Guild who occasionally had good luck.
After getting Ye Xu’s permission, Gusuli quickly opened the chat system to notify others to come.
Their village really can’t make up ten living players, but it’s almost enough with the combat profession. It just so happens that the combat profession usually kills monsters outside the village, so you can easily collect monster corpses and other materials, which can be used immediately.
Ye Xu told the blacksmith to let Gusuli take full responsibility for this matter, and then he became the shopkeeper. He wouldn’t waste time staying here and waiting for others to come and report one after another.
The blacksmith over there counted with his fingers and found that he could earn 20 silver coins in this wave. Although it was still far from 1 gold coin, it was better than nothing. Not many players have come to him to buy equipment after it has been open for so long.
When he was happy, the blacksmith uncle grabbed Ye Xu and said, “Young man, I have a daunting task here. I don’t know if you are willing to take it.”
Is there still a task? Ye Xu quickly nodded and took it.
Blacksmith: “It’s like this. I’m short of some raw materials to make equipment recently, and I need 100 claws of mutant wild cats. As long as you complete this task, I will give you a generous reward.”
[You accepted the quest “Collect Mutant Wild Cat Claws”, quest level: green. 】
I didn’t expect this to be a green task, no wonder the blacksmith said the task was very difficult. Ye Xu looked at his attribute panel, the attack of 15 and the defense of 19. He wondered if he could easily kill the mutant wild cat.
And there are 100 quest items, and I don’t know what the drop rate of the cat’s claws is. If the drop rate is very low, then even with his luck value, he has to kill at least two or three hundred monsters to get it together. If this is another African chief to take the task, I am afraid that it will have to be killed forever.
Doing this task is destined to be a long process. Ye Xu intends to buy some blood bottles, which can improve the efficiency of killing monsters and reduce the time-consuming to sit down and recover blood.
By the way, the weapon has to be replaced. The novice stick with 1 attack is too shabby. He still has 4 silver coins in his hand, so he can buy a luxury long sword with 5 attack. If it weren’t for the fear of not having enough money to buy the red potion, he would even want to buy some more expensive weapons.
After that, the money is still useless. When will the broken game open the krypton gold channel, why should he, a rich second-generation, worry about money like other players? Life is not easy, Ye Xu sighed.
Ye Xu expressed his willingness to buy a new weapon to the uncle of the blacksmith, and Gu Suli actively helped him with suggestions and selected high-quality weapons with higher cost performance for him.
However, it seems that the difference is not big. The level of things in the blacksmith shop is very jumping. There are only level 1, 5 and 10 equipment, and there is no intermediate level 2346789. And level 1 only has white equipment, the added attack is pitiful, and it is very expensive.
“It’s not worth buying this…” Ye Xu felt a little distressed about his money.
After watching the blacksmith for a while, he disliked his poorness very much: “It’s okay, don’t be brave if you can’t afford it. I have a decent weapon here, and I can rent it to you for two days. But you can’t Don’t owe me rent, and don’t lose anything.”
As he said that, he took out a long knife and handed it to Ye Xu, saying that he would charge 10 copper coins for renting it for an hour. The time was started when Ye Xu took the knife, and it was not stopped until it was returned to the blacksmith. If it was less than an hour, it was counted as one hour.
Ye Xu: “…” There is actually such an operation!
Blacksmith’s Knife (Green)
Type: Melee weapon
Attack: 810
Strength: +1
Remarks: Quest items, already bound, will be taken back after the quest is over.
Required Level: Level 1
The knife is a good knife, and it directly increased Ye Xu’s attack power by two-thirds. Although the rent was a little expensive, Ye Xu accepted it happily, but only after he walked out of the blacksmith shop did he feel that he was at a loss.
In case he kills monsters very slowly, this mission will cost several silver coins. I threw out a few silver coins and didn’t get anything back. I just rented a weapon for a period of time. If I bought a sword, I got something.
Forget it, it’s all rented, and it’s pointless to say that. Ye Xu had to speed up and reduce the waste of time.
He ran straight to Sarah’s small shop, where he could buy red medicine. On the way, I found a lot of people and him on the same destination, but this group of people is not to buy potions, it is estimated that they are coming for the blacksmith.
Sarah was so annoyed by this group of people that she finally picked a few that were pleasing to the eye and asked them to help deliver a few words and a small gift to the blacksmith. Ye Xu observed for a while, and the selected people all seem to be good at mixing, and the players who are mixing well at this stage are either the guild management and high-level players, or those with relatively high luck values. Sure enough, this game is quite interesting. Face.
Ye Xu kept two silver coins as the rental fee, and the rest of the money was used to buy potions. I don’t know if it’s enough or not, but try to save as much as possible. The potions here are really expensive, but it seems that there are no NPCs who teach medicine in Novice Village, otherwise there will be a wave of guild life players.
After buying the potion, Ye Xu put the big knife on his shoulder and left the Novice Village directly. The proprietress said that the mutant wild cat was on the grass not too far behind the village, and it was easy to find.
