Chapter 108 Collection Master
After chatting for a few words, I bid farewell to the vicissitudes and was excited to level up by several players in the guild. Of course, as the number one blacksmith, it is unwise to just know how to keep mining and ignore the level. But it is no wonder that there are not many friends in the game who say goodbye to the vicissitudes, so no one usually takes the level together, so I put all my energy into mining and making equipment. After joining the guild, this happy single blacksmith is finally no longer alone.
With a complete certificate of land deeds, Cheng Ran quickly walked into the hall of the Dead, and then headed straight to the inner hall, where the city lord Catherine was.
The Shadow City is no longer in a state of unowned status, and the Hall of the Dead is also a new look. All the dark auras of the past have been shedding, and groups of flying phosus fires pass by the top of their heads from time to time, making the Hall of the Dead full of vitality.
At this time, NPC officials in robes passed by from time to time. They were the lower-ranking officials who served the entire Shadow City, and their immediate boss was the beautiful city lord Catherine Cecilia.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the inner hall, I saw two fully armed undead guards guarding there. Seeing Chengran coming, the two guards took a long axe in their hands and said coldly: "Please inform us of your identity, stranger!"
Cheng Ran nodded slightly and said, "Two officers, I'm here to meet the city lord."
"If it's not something important, go back soon." said the guard. "The city lord has been busy with official duties recently and rarely sees guests."
At this time, the door opened, and the beautiful city lord Catherine, wearing a robes, saw Cheng Ran, her eyes filled with a smile, and then ordered: "This warrior is my distinguished guest. He can enter and exit here at will in the future, and there is no need to inform him."
"Yes, Lord City!" The two guards bowed deeply to Catherine and responded respectfully.
Following Catherine into the inner hall, this place has become the other party's office. In front of it is a stone rectangular office desk with parchment-like documents neatly placed on it. On both sides of the desk are two tall bookshelfs, and the bookshelf is filled with various thick books. Of course, as a magician, a crystal ball is indispensable. At this time, the purple crystal ball, the size of a washbasin, is right in front of the bookshelf, flowing colorfully and eye-catching.
"Is there anything you want to ask me?" Catherine asked with a smile as she looked at Chengran.
Cheng Ran took out the land deed certificate and handed it over and said, "Dear Your Excellency, I want to buy a piece of land in the city."
"Oh? Do you want to buy land pieces? Of course there is no problem." Catherine said, and with a wave of her hand, a map of the Shadow City composed of magical influence appeared in front of Cheng Ran, saying, "Because the Shadow City has been in the long run, many lands and buildings have been abandoned. Now the capital in the city warehouse is short of funds. Even if I want to use these wastelands, they have no power, so these lands are waiting for those who need them to appear."
"I don't know what the price of the land is?" Cheng Ran immediately asked about the price issue he was concerned about. After all, he bought land for the first time, for fear that his funds would be insufficient.
Katherine pointed to the map and introduced: "The price of the land is determined based on the geographical location and size. The price per grid is 50 silver coins and 1 gold coin. For example, this piece of land closest to the south is the price of 50 squares. Because of its remote location, the price of 50 squares is 50 gold coins. This piece of land in the central square is 50 squares."
Chengran now has more than 150 gold in the package, which is enough to buy a 150-unit land. However, if you buy too much in the early stage, the maintenance expenses are relatively large, so Chengran feels that it is necessary to promote rational consumption, so he decided to buy 100-unit first. Of course, there is no need to consider the geographical location, it is definitely the central square.
"I want to buy 100 yards in this area in the Central Plaza." Cheng Ran immediately finalized this land. In the future, this is the most prosperous area. A large number of players will pass by every day, so there are endless business opportunities.
Catherine smiled and nodded, returned to her desk, picked up a quill and wrote the relevant data on the land deed and a blank sheepskin roll, and then used magic marks to brand the city lord's seal, then put away the original land deed and handed the written contract to Chengran and said, "Go and find my financial officer. The land that belongs to you after paying the money, but I have already discounted you as the city lord. You only need to pay 90 gold coins for this land."
"Ding! The city lord Katherine's favorability towards you has increased by 15 points."
"Ding! Congratulations on getting the item [Lottery Certificate]. Please take it to the Treasurer Germaz and complete the land transaction."
It seems that due to the main mission, Catherine's favorability has been increased, so even the price of the land has been discounted, with a total of 10 gold coins missing, which is already a lot.
Chengran immediately said goodbye to Catherine, turned around and found the Treasurer Gomes, handed over the land deed certificate, paid 90 gold coins, and completed the final transaction. At this time, the land had been completely obtained.
Then, Cheng Ran came out of the Hall of the Dead, and went to the market to collect 100 units of wood. After preparing everything, he found the only architect in the Shadows.
"Hey, hello, Warrior, what can Buck do for you?" Buck is a low-level undead, and he was puzzled that a low-level undead was actually an architect.
"I want to use these materials to build a shop and a blacksmith shop on the land in the central square." Cheng Ran handed the stone and wood to the other party.
"No problem, just leave it to me, Buck." Buck said, waving the saw bow in his hand, "but please pay me the project fee of 5 gold coins."
After receiving the project fee of 5 gold coins, Buck smiled and said, "Your two stores will be completed in an hour."
An hour is not long or short, but waiting is often painful. Cheng Ran is not ready to waste time. He must introduce some goods for the store that is about to open, otherwise it will be embarrassing to have only the store without goods.
Chengran saw that he was able to make Level 4 potions with some proficiency, but now he did not have the materials to make Level 3 potions. He did not have to hurry to the Anti-Demon Cave and the Hawks' nest in an hour, so he decided to go to the market first. Maybe there are also these Level 3 materials for sale now.
While switching to the market, Cheng Ran felt aroused his heart and asked Fuwena with spiritual dialogue: "Fuwena, where are you now?"
Soon, Fvina's voice came from his mind: "Is there anything wrong, brother? I'm in the harem's nest now."
Cheng Ran was stunned and hurriedly opened the Battle Spirit attribute bar and found that Fuweina had actually risen to level 24. What surprised Cheng Ran even more was that Fuweina was actually full of senior equipment at this moment, and its attributes were very good. The equipment he gave had been replaced before had long been replaced. The Battle Spirit is the Battle Spirit, and he can also identify the quality of the equipment by himself and use better equipment to arm himself. It seems that as Fuweina's level gradually increases, he can find a better leveling location, so there is no need to worry about equipment issues for the time being.
Although Fuweina is only at level 24, her attack power and defense power are above the level. Now she can actually beat the harp alone. I believe that after her second awakening at level 30, her attributes will be even more amazing.
Cheng Ran suddenly had an idea, that is, he didn't know whether the war spirit could collect materials. In this way, Fuweina could help collect the rosy roots, because he had seen players selling the two materials: Soul Recovery Leaf and Demon Bat Blood, but there was no rosy roots.
Let's try it first! After making up the idea, Cheng Ran asked: "Fuvina, can you collect materials?"
"Collection of materials?" Fuweina said with a smile, "It should be OK, I'm sure I'm going to hide it from my brother. When I was in Tianyu City, I picked a lot of medicinal materials with the palace pharmacist, and I've seen most of the materials."
Cheng Ran was very happy and hurriedly said, "That's great, Fvina, have you seen a brown plant growing in the harp's nest, like a dead root?"
Fvena nodded and said, "Brother, is it Choru Gen?"
"Yes, it's Jumugen." Cheng Ran really loves this beautiful woman's war spirit to death now. If she collects Jumugen for her, it would have been a big help.
Fvena smiled and said, "It's simple, brother, I'll leave the task of collecting korime roots to me!"
"Ding! Fvena's connection with your soul has increased, favorability +2."
"Your guardian war spirit, Fuvina, has comprehended the collection technique (level 10)."
Seeing this prompt, Cheng Ran was almost overjoyed. Unexpectedly, this beautiful warrior was also a collector. In the future, Fvina could take on the task of collecting materials. Cheng Ran seemed to see that he was one step closer to his goal.
