Volume 4: Following the Dragon and Slaying the Dragon Chapter 78 Transaction
After knowing Wang Liang's idea, Wang Gongsheng stepped forward to deal with the treadle crossbow. He didn't care whether this thing was called a mecha or a treadle crossbow. He climbed onto a treadle crossbow and began to report data quickly.
"The first mecha is 31 feet 12 inches tall and weighs..."
Xu Gongfeng, who had been chatting happily with Wang Liang at the beginning, also took out a notebook to record it.
Mr. Li was watching from the side, and he would point out immediately if there was anything wrong with the data.
It can be said that they did not miss any detail.
After recording everything, Wang Gongsheng tried to operate the three pedal crossbows.
However, Wang Gongfeng was not the maker of these pedal crossbows, and he had no way to completely control the three pedal crossbows. But under his control, one of the pedal crossbows moved slightly. It can be seen that Wang Gongfeng still has some skills.
After controlling the three pedal crossbows one by one, Wang Gongsheng nodded to the other two priests.
At this time, Xu Gongfeng approached Wang Liang and said, "We have also recorded the details you mentioned. So talented fellow Taoist, let's discuss these three mechanical... treadle crossbows, right? Let's discuss the cost of these three treadle crossbows.
We at Jiantiansi are generous. No matter whether this thing was made by you or not, what you said is on point, so we will not lower your price. These three tread crossbows are only 60% new and have been through several wars, so some parts inside need to be replaced.
If you sell the parts separately, the price can be higher, but if you sell it as a whole, we have to consider the following matters.”
"If you want to disassemble it and sell it, can I disassemble it?"
Wang Liang retorted. He knew that when dealing with people like this businessman, some words should be said more directly.
"Will you demolish it?" Wang Gongsheng turned his head and looked at Wang Liang.
"No, but this thing will explode if you don't take it apart correctly. After it explodes, the parts will fall out anyway and can be sold anyway."
After hearing this, Wang Gongfeng's face changed. He knew what Wang Liang meant, so he turned to Xu Gongfeng and said, "Old Xu, don't lower the price. This mecha looks simple, but it has the effect of a combination. The three-in-one is something I haven't studied. If it explodes, there will be no design drawings."
"You, what did I tell you before? You are the one who checks the information, and I am the one who negotiates the price. Why are you speaking again?"
Listening to Xu Gongfeng's dissatisfied complaints, Wang Gongfeng was angry, "What do you know? Do you know that if we do it as you say, we will get nothing in the end? Fellow Daoist Duocai doesn't care about our little money, right, Fellow Daoist Duocai, can you put your hands down, step back, and don't get close to my mecha?"
Looking at the look on Gongfeng Wang's face, Gongfeng Xu knew that it was impossible to lower the price.
He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then we'll calculate based on the price of three normal crossbows. After all, you have to agree that this crossbow is only 60% new, and at most it has a three-in-one effect, which we don't have."
Wang Liang also knew that he couldn't ask for too much, so he nodded to indicate his agreement.
This made Xu Gongfeng smile from ear to ear. He put away the notebook he had just used to record the data of the crossbow, and took out another notebook and opened it in front of Wang Liang.
“This is something that our Tianjiansi can use for external trade. If you calculate these three crossbows according to Tianjiansi’s rules, it will be too troublesome. So , I will calculate with you directly according to the level of the three Tianjiansi artifacts.
These three of yours can be converted into three second-grade artifacts. Of course, the artifacts of the Tianjian Division are not sold to the outside world, no matter which force, unless you are willing to join the Tianjian Division.
Therefore, we have already prepared items of equivalent value as replacements. These are all collected by the Sky Monitoring Department and are guaranteed to be of equal value to the artifacts.
You can choose four items from Category B. Three of them are for exchange with the tread crossbow, and the extra one is for the three-in-one effect."
After saying this, Xu Gongfeng handed the notebook in his hand to Wang Liang.
Wang Liang flipped through the book and found that it was divided into several categories. In addition to the martial arts techniques, there were also some military formations, materials, magic weapons and the like.
Wang Liang looked at the magic weapon series very carefully, and he found that the Class B artifact-level magic weapon written on it was actually a purple magic weapon.
This is consistent with the system's judgment. After all, the step crossbows around level 50 are almost purple.
In addition, Wang Liang noticed that the things provided by Xu Gongfeng were all around level 50, or could be used up to level 50. It can be seen that although Xu Gongfeng tried to lower the price at the beginning, he still had some idea in his mind.
After reading through the entire notebook, Wang Liang thought seriously about what he needed now.
Finally, he looked up and asked, "I see you have demon cultivation techniques here, so I know you don't reject demon cultivation. Do you have any elixirs that can help demon cultivators transform? I'm willing to exchange for a recipe or a large amount of elixirs."
Xu Gongsheng closed the book and said with certainty: "There is no elixir formula. Demon cultivators are stronger than ordinary soldiers. You want to form an army of demon cultivators. You also know that under the current situation, if we release the elixir formula, what will happen to the world, so there is no way to give you the elixir formula."
"From what you said, there is no recipe, but there is a ready-made medicine."
“Yes.” Xu Gongfeng would naturally admit what Wang Liang could hear, “Little demons are not good for the country, but they are necessary for the gods. Even the weakest ninth-rank mountain god has thirty to fifty little demons under his command.
It all depends on accumulation bit by bit. Some gods can't wait, so we have a series of elixirs such as the Transformation Pill for sale, but I still say that I can't give it to you, after all, it will affect the situation in the world."
"What if I bought it for the gods under me?"
Wang Liang saw the problem at a glance.
"That won't work either. Nowadays, every force has one or two gods under their command. We must ensure a certain degree of fairness. Of course, if you can bring out your personal guards, that's fine."
Gongsheng Xu nodded at Wang Liang. He knew that Wang Liang was born as a Dragon King, so he must have some small fry under his command, and those could be improved with methods like the Transformation Pill.
But Wang Liang thought of another direction. After thinking about it, he took out the Taixuan Umbrella.
"Master Xu, look at this magic weapon of mine. This magic weapon can be used to set up an array. I need three thousand fairy Taoist children and nine thousand spirit birds and beasts. I want them to transform."
Looking at the pattern on the Taixuan Umbrella, Xu Gongfeng hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, but there are only 9,000 sets, from awakening to transformation, no more."
