Monarch of Evernight: 291 sincere transaction

bsp;How to price things like star cherry wood is a matter of opinion and wisdom. In the past, Xingyingmu was basically controlled by Song Clan. Song Clan, who was good at doing business, would never surprise people with the price they offered, only frighten them. However, in view of the importance of complex medicine and the huge difference in potency between those with and without Star Sakura, the Imperial Military Department could only endure it with pinched noses.

What is in front of me now are three star cherry trees, and they are of high quality. They are used to refine the compound potion, which can almost bring the dead back to life under the general. How to price the lives of six high-level generals?

Lan Xincheng was stunned for a long time, then Fang smiled bitterly and said: "Master Qianye actually has a star cherry tree in his hand, which poses a problem for me. It's not easy to bring these three things out, right?"

"It does take up a lot of space."

Xing Yingmu takes up precious storage space. At the level that Lan Xincheng can access, it is quite good if the space equipment has one or two cubic meters of built-in space. There is room for the star cherry tree, so it would be better to put in a few more jars of white fruit wine.

The place where white fruit wine can really sell for a high price is Yongye, and its value is much higher than that of Xingyingmu. Qianye's choice to bring Xingyingmu back speaks volumes in itself.

Lan Xincheng knew what he knew, sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, you are serious. Let's do this. Each of these three star cherry trees will be priced at half a box of dragon scale moss. As long as you take out three more sticks, all the materials will be Yours."

Qianye smiled and said: "I would like to take it, but unfortunately there are not that many."

"That's true. It's not easy to cultivate star cherry trees, nor is it easy to mature. Those with a little quality have been picked long ago. With these three roots, we can be much more relaxed during the Battle of Floating Land. If we want to make those If the family members show their true core strength, they have to be given some protection, right?" Lan Xincheng said with a smile.

This is common sense. When Zhao Yuying, Zhao Junhong and others go into battle, they always carry some life-saving items with them to ensure that they will not fall in the chaos of the battle. Complex medicine is one of them, and it is very effective. If you want to let the elites who have spent a lot of resources and time training go to the battlefield, threats, inducements, etc. are not as effective as giving them recovery potions.

Lan Xincheng looked at Qianye longingly and said: "It's almost done now. As long as there is another box and a half of dragon scale moss, everything in this book will be yours. Look, that's hundreds of tons The difficulty lies in the large quantity of high-quality outer wall panels and more armor plates. It is not difficult to obtain one ton or two tons. If you want to obtain more than ten tons, you must be a marshal to approve it. "

This is true. The empire's annual output of various steel alloys is probably tens of millions of tons, but only one of them can be used as battleship plates. Judging from the plate numbers given by Yilan Xincheng, they are still above the standard, which means they are even rarer and are truly strategic materials. Otherwise, how can it be compared with the Mountain-class engine and the Strider-class main gun?

Qianye pondered: "I still have some things, but they are not easy to value. Also, how do you price these courses?"

"One hundred tons of battleship plating."

Qianye raised his eyebrows and said, "There are only twenty people, each one worth five tons?"

"Of course it's worth it." Lan Xincheng remained calm, "The empire uses simulated arrays to train warship command. Just the operation of the array is equivalent to a mother ship moving at full speed."

"How big of an array must it be?"

"At least it can cover your Dark Fire headquarters."

"It's not a small gesture." Qianye was slightly surprised. The so-called simulation array is just like the battle simulator installed at the training base of the Imperial Army. Two people are on the console at one end, and the shadows are fighting in the middle. It is only used for warship command training and is magnified hundreds or thousands of times. The user feels like he is on the battlefield in outer space, and the effect is extraordinary.

"It makes sense that the imperial fleet can repeatedly defeat the weak and maintain outer space."

Qianye nodded. Having served in the Imperial Army, he knew that outer space was actually another smokey battlefield where blood could not be seen, and it was even more tragic than the ground. Once a battleship is severely damaged, the crew members with ordinary cultivation in the void will have almost nowhere to escape. If the rescue is delayed, even the generals will undoubtedly die.

Qianye destroyed Lin Jiaer's fleet, and in the end Lin Jiaer could only escape with less than half of his men. Most of the crew died when the battleship was destroyed, with no chance of survival.

Under such circumstances, the ability to maintain outer space and protect the safety of the empire's three continents, and behind the brilliant achievements of the floating fleet, are actually excellent command skills, combat qualities, and the cold bones of countless soldiers.

Hearing what Lan Xincheng said, Qianye knew that the idea of ​​having the other party send an instructor over was no longer realistic. So he asked again: "Can these quotas be transferred?"

"Transfer? Of course you can. But Lord Qianye, are you sure you want to transfer?"

"I may not need that much. Besides, some of my friends may need it more."

"Well, the quota is yours after all, you have the final say. But I want to remind you that this training device needs at least three months of maintenance every year, and the number of people it can accommodate is also limited. Every year, too There are hundreds of training places. Otherwise, how could one place be worth five tons of warship plates?"

"I understand." Qianye nodded.

There are not many talents worth cultivating in Dark Fire, especially since the loyalty of many people is difficult to guarantee. If Song Zining were here, with his methods, he would be able to hold these guys firmly in his hands. But Qianye doesn't have this ability. This can be seen from the fact that something happened in Nan Qingcheng immediately after Song Zining left. If Qianye was the only one who went to the Maelstrom, Nan Qing City would still be the same now, and Zhang Xuance would not even be able to enter Nan Qing.

On the other hand, Qianye doesn’t actually attach much importance to floating battleships at the moment. He doesn’t need an independent battleship commander. Instead, he needs qualified gunners, equipment maintenance and damage control personnel on board the ship, as well as the marines accompanying the ship. needed.

Qianye wanted a large amount of warship manufacturing materials for other purposes, so naturally he would not tell Lan Xincheng.

Qianye searched Anduya's space for a moment and took out another small box. This box is no bigger than the palm of your hand and can't hold much in it. Lan Xincheng held it solemnly and did not dare to neglect it at all.

The value of a treasure has nothing to do with its size. Qianye has already brought out good things such as Dragon Scale Moss, Ginkgo Fruit, and Star Sakura Wood, and the remaining things are even more worth looking forward to.

The lid of the box is opened, and inside are pieces of crystal clear blue petals, filling most of the box.

Qianye found these from the two-armed natives, and they don’t know what they are used for. Even Ji Tianqing and Li Kuanglan couldn’t tell. But just by looking at it, it felt good, and it was treasured and treasured by the indigenous people. Qianye took a lot of it, and it didn't take up much space anyway.

Now Qianye takes it out just to see if Lan Xincheng knows the purpose of this kind of crystal petals. Lan Xincheng has worked in the equipment department for many years. He has seen countless treasures and his eyesight is far superior to those of the master appraisers.

After staring at the crystal petals for a long time, Lan Xin pushed the small box in front of Fang Zhan, "Xiao Fang, you guys from aristocratic families have done a lot of research on jewelry. Come and see what this is?"

Fang Zhan took it, took out a small bag, and opened it to reveal a row of precision tools inside. He also has space equipment, but the capacity seems to be very small.

Most of the tools in the small bag have never been seen or heard of by Qianye.

Fang Zhan smiled and said: "This is my little hobby, gem identification and processing."

He took out a special small caliper. The surface of the caliper was covered with a thin and soft layer of skin, which would not damage the surface of the gemstone. After picking up a crystal petal, Fang Zhan placed it under a portable observation scope, and then set up a stand with a metal ball on the top. A ray of light immediately shot out from the metal bead and shone on the crystal petals.

He put his eyes on the observation mirror, slowly turned the crystal petals, and constantly adjusted the brightness and color of the bead light column.

Such a professional identification technique immediately changed Qianye’s impression of the opponent’s battle. In Qianye's mind, those jewelry appraisers basically just use their eyes to see, and at most they wear glasses or a magnifying glass. Just looking at the tools, I don’t know how many levels behind Fang Zhan.

It seems that there is a reason why Fang Zhan was sent to a neutral place. If you only know how to eat, drink and have fun, you are a fool, but if you can study deeply to the extreme, you are a master.

After looking at it for a long time, Fang Zhan sighed, and his eyes looking at those blue petals became much gentler. He coughed lightly and said, "If what I expected is correct, these petal gems should have been real petals before, but they turned into gems for some unknown reason."

Lan Xincheng was moved in his heart and asked: "Like the lotus on the sea?"

"Almost. However, the sea lotus still retains considerable potency after solidifying into jade, and these petals may not be powerful enough originally. After being turned into gems, they are basically just pure gems."

"That's it." Lan Xincheng looked disappointed.

Fang Zhan said: "The value of these petals is not low. General Lan, you see, these patterns inside and outside the petals are all natural, and no two are exactly the same. And in terms of color, shape, and purity , these are top gems.”

Lan Xincheng knew the value of jewelry, but he had no feeling for such purely decorative objects, so he turned to Qianye and said, "Sir, there are other treasures, can you open our eyes?"

Qianye didn't think much about these gem petals, and after hearing that they were ordinary gems, he didn't think anything of it. Anyway, I gained a lot in the maelstrom this time, and I can always find good things.

He was searching Anduya's space. Fang Zhan quietly pulled Lan Xincheng and said, "General, please collect these gem petals."

"What use can this...have?" Lan Xincheng was a little embarrassed. After Fang Zhan's appraisal, he also knew that these gem petals were of extremely high quality and were valuable. With such a large box, there is no problem in buying more than 100 tons of high-quality battleship plates. But he is not an ordinary businessman. The concept of transaction is not equivalent in terms of money. Using strategic materials in exchange for jewelry is still a bit difficult to pass.

Fang Zhan lowered his voice and said softly: "General, this kind of gem made of natural petals has never been seen in the empire. Except for this box in our hands, there is no more."

Lan Xincheng hummed and did not express his position.

Fang Zhan finally got a little anxious and couldn't care less, so he said bluntly: "It will be Empress Li's birthday in two months. In the hands of a skilled craftsman, these petals can be made into a complete set of jewelry, and it is unique! As a birthday gift for Empress Li, it is enough in terms of value and art."

Lan Xincheng was finally moved.
