Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 77 New Income Caliber, Colosseum

Lin Qianfan originally thought that he would encounter some problems when refining a top-grade magic weapon for the first time, and he had even made up his mind that even if the refining loss exceeded the limit, he would just let it go and sell it when the time came.
Then buy a new batch of raw materials and refine it again. The worst that can happen is that you won’t make any profit on this order.

But the refining process went very smoothly, and it even became more and more convenient, successfully controlling the loss.

“Continue to the next step.”

The art of refining equipment is extensive and profound, and is divided into many different processes and steps.

The method of refining this large golden ring knife is relatively simple. One only needs to refine the raw materials and then melt them into one piece to form the knife blank. There is no need for quenching or forging.

"Next is the ring."

The nine large purple-gold copper rings are not purely decorative, but important accessories that can trigger sonic attacks during combat.

"Next is to burn the inscription."

Refining equipment is not just about blacksmithing. When necessary, it also requires the use of some runes, and sometimes even involves the art of formation.

It’s okay if you understand it yourself, you can get a lot of money after completing a set of procedures. If you encounter something you don’t understand, you have to find helpers to share some profits.

"Done!"

With the successful engraving of the last talisman foot, a first-grade, top-quality magic weapon that fully meets the employer's requirements was newly produced.

"It's powerful and heavy, not bad."

Although this knife is not ranked among the top-grade magic weapons, the identity of the man in short shirt is also not ranked among the late-stage Qi Refining. A good knife goes well with a good man, a perfect match!

The next day, same routine.

He started practicing various techniques at the hour of Mao and did not go out until noon. Today, Lin Qianfan went to the General Affairs Hall again to choose a suitable task.

"This place is not bad. As long as you lower the profit margin, it can be considered a part-time income."

The profits of Qi refining shops are all considered very high because their various costs are very high, and they also have to preset the depreciation rate, failure rate, etc.

But Lin Qianfan's cost was very low. The venue and formation were provided by the ship workshop. He also understood the inscriptions and formation carving. No one interfered with his side business, and all the money he earned went into his own pocket.

[Top-grade Thick Earth Bell, requires the seal formation to be engraved...]

[A top-grade copper sword requires both hardness and toughness...]

[A pair of top-grade Oriental sticks, requesting a coordinated connection...]

Not to mention, the General Affairs Hall has quite a lot of commissions for refining equipment. Just looking at the top-grade magical instruments, there are more than a dozen of them.

Some of them are still commissions from yesterday, which means that the employer has neither commissioned them out nor left the market yet. There are also several that are new commissions received today.

“It seems that the market demand is quite large.”

Although the proportion of cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining is not large, the base number of cultivators around the four eastern islands is there.

It is not ruled out that some of the employers originally intended to find a Qi-refining shop for customization, but they chose to try their luck here first. After all, it only takes time and no money, and some people just have free time.

"This purple copper magic sword is suitable for me. I'll take it."

Although the refining method of the purple copper magic sword is different from that of the phantom sword, they are both magic swords and have some similarities. They can also serve as training tools, but the main reason is that Lin Qianfan feels that there is some profit to be made.

The same thing happened as yesterday. After taking the other party to Zou Ji Shipyard, I successfully received the commission.

"Sir, do you still take this kind of job?"

Uncle Zou couldn't help but ask when he saw Lin Qianfan brought people to his house for verification for two consecutive days.

"Answer it, Uncle Zou, do you have a channel?"

Although Uncle Zou's status is lower than Lin Qianfan's, on the surface he is the owner of the shipyard and needs to give him face. Moreover, he is a member of Lin Qianfan's family, so he is naturally much more patient with him.

"I can recommend some businesses to you. They're definitely more profitable than panning for gold in the sand at the General Affairs Hall."

It's more than just panning for gold in the sand, it's panning for gold in shit. Some of the commissions are extremely outrageous, and even the slave price cannot be made up. I don't know what the client is thinking.

"Sure! But I don't accept every commission. My priority is improving my skills, and my free time is limited."

"I understand. Wait for my news." Not every weapon refining commission can be completed as quickly as the Golden Wire Large Ring Knife. That is an exception. Some complicated work requires several days to complete, and the time cost is very high.

For Lin Qianfan, refining equipment is not a very high priority. It needs to give way to improving realm and strength. It is not even as important as being a shipbuilder.

"This feel and this quantity are absolutely amazing!"

"I approached many people before, but they were reluctant to take my business because they thought the commission I offered was too low. I thought you could do it, but there would be some compromises, and I was even mentally prepared for it. But I didn't expect the finished product to be so perfect."

After the man got the sword, he danced with it a few times and praised it highly.

"It is a matter of loyalty to others when entrusted by them."

"Thank you. I'll come to you again if there's something like this next time."

"There will be no such slave prices in the future."

"Haha~ That's fine, your skills are indeed worth the price."

The man was also a straightforward person, and even rewarded Lin Qianfan with five spirit stones as an extra reward.

Blue Coast Colosseum.

The Colosseum is located in the center of the southern area of Fangshi.

The South District is much more organized than the poor West District and the industrial North District, and people living in the South District are generally richer, and rich people have entertainment consumption needs.

The Colosseum is a den of money and one of the core industries of the Lin family in Lan'an Market, making a fortune every day.

Lin Qianfan came here today not to watch the battle between humans and beasts, but to feel the specific level of the Colosseum and see if he could find a suitable opponent for combat training.

Of course, it would be even better if you could make money at the same time. After all, spiritual objects in the late stage of Qi Refining are more valuable.

"Sir, please show your ticket."

"Is this okay?"

"Sorry, sir, your ticket is expired."

"Then make up one."

"A temporary discount of two spirit stones."

Really expensive!

You should know that foreign cultivators who do not belong to the market only need one spirit stone to enter the market to trade, and one spirit stone can last for one day.

And a temporary ticket to a small Colosseum actually requires two spirit stones. It's too expensive and too unfair.

The Colosseum is much larger than other buildings, but in the eyes of Lin Qianfan, who has seen many immortal cities, it is just that, not very large. After all, the population of Lan'an Market is limited here.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen!"

The time has come and the Colosseum is beginning to get lively.

"Enough of the small talk. I believe everyone is here to watch the duel, not to watch me. There will be ten matches today, among which..."

There are several types of Colosseum matches, including human-to-human battles, human-to-monster battles, and monster-to-monster battles.

These battles are divided into duels and death duels, as well as different levels and grades.

Every challenger who steps into the Colosseum has various reasons, but every competition is a casino for the spectators.

That’s right, the main source of revenue for the Colosseum is not the tickets sold by the spectators, but the commission from gambling on fights, which is even more exaggerated than the revenue from tickets.

As the organizer, the Colosseum often does not directly participate in the gambling in order to maintain the fairness of the competition. They only take 5% of each prize pool.

This is pure profit, a huge amount of pure profit that you will make regardless of winning or losing.

"Next, please welcome the protagonist of our first game today."

"The Ever-Victorious General: Sea~Beaver~Beast~"
