"That is to say, Mr. Yu Qi made a deal with the Wangsheng Hall and used a barrier to seal a dark object in the cave, and the Immortal Master also intervened?"
After hearing that an immortal had personally intervened, Chongyun instantly let down his guard and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was too sensitive. Please rest assured, I will never leak what I heard here today."
"Yeah, us too." Xingqiu and Yunjin naturally did not hesitate and promised.
"It's okay, it's just a small matter. In fact, people who should know it probably already know it." Waving her hand indifferently, Alicia didn't care whether the news would spread. Instead, she looked at Chongyun with interest.
It was clearly a barrier that was set up by the Wangsheng Hall with great effort, and even centered around the 'Core of Mourning'. However, Chongyun was able to sense the Turbid Yin Spring across the barrier of the cave. It seems that his pure yang body is not simple at all!
This small matter was deliberately ignored by a few people. Soon, Yu Qi, who had finished refining the pill, walked out of the cave. After handing the pill to the barbarians for arrangement, he sat down and chatted with Xingqiu and the others.
Of course, since it was just their first meeting, the language between them was inevitably a little unfamiliar. If Yan Fei and Ailiya hadn't been mediating, given Yu Qi's current status and Xingqiu's purpose, this would have easily turned into a business meeting full of swords and sabers!
Time ticked by, and soon it was nine o'clock. Yu Qi did not hesitate, got up and walked into the store, asked Manju to open the door, and announced the official opening of business.
The crowd who had been waiting outside for a long time swarmed into the store.
"Hello, Boss Yu. I've heard a lot about you. I'm the manager of Chaohai Chamber of Commerce..."
"Hello, Mr. Yu. I am the manager of Lianzhu Chamber of Commerce..."
"Boss Yu..."
"Hello, Boss Yu..."
"You must be Boss Yu, right?"
After dealing with servants, stewards, managers from more than a dozen chambers of commerce, as well as many members of aristocratic families, and politely sending them off one by one, Yu Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As expected, the purpose of these people coming here was for the "Blood Recovery Pill". After seeing the notice posted by Yu Qi that the purchase was limited to one, they were not too dissatisfied. They bought the corresponding number of Blood Recovery Pills and Body Strengthening Pills in an orderly manner.
The overly harmonious atmosphere made Yu Qi, who was originally a little nervous, feel a little relieved.
"Boss Yu's business is really booming! On the opening day, all the famous Chamber of Commerce in Liyue Harbor came. It looks like Boss Yu's store will soon be famous throughout Liyue Harbor! I would like to congratulate Boss Yu on his prosperous business and great wealth."
Seeing that the visitors from other chambers of commerce had dispersed, Xingqiu, Chongyun and Yunjin also walked out of the side room. After all, the purpose of their coming here had basically been achieved, and now it was time to go back.
"Thanks for your compliments." Yu Qi shook his head slightly, but he didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, he sighed helplessly: "As for me, I am a little worried now. If I had known earlier, I would have set the price of the blood recovery pill higher.
Five thousand Mora per bottle, originally intended to benefit ordinary people, but now it seems that those chambers of commerce will probably buy it all in the future!"
To be honest, since it was the first time he opened a store, Yu Qi’s ideas were still a little too immature.
From the reactions of those people from the Chamber of Commerce, he could easily see that they didn't care about the price of the Blood Recovery Pill; even though Yu Qi had set a limit of one bottle per person per day, but...
Those large chambers of commerce don't have much else but a lot of people. The head and manager of each chamber of commerce brought several servants with them. The largest chamber of commerce even bought ten bottles of blood-recovering pills and body-strengthening pills at one go.
Chapter 72: Master Craftsman Yu Qi
Even though the chambers of commerce didn't buy a lot of pills this time, if Yu Qi was right, once they confirmed that the effects of the blood-recovering pills and the body-strengthening pills were just as Yu Qi described, they would probably send a large number of employees from the chambers of commerce to come to the store one by one to buy pills.
If he is not careful, Yu Qi's blood-recovering pills and body-strengthening pills might really be taken away by them.
"Tsk, how about limiting the sales? Only sell 200 bottles a day?" This thought flashed through his mind, but was quickly discarded by Yu Qi.
"If they want to buy, then let them buy. How many can these chambers of commerce sell? One hundred bottles? Ten thousand bottles? Haha, I don't believe they can really buy out all the bottles I have!"
One bottle costs 5,000 Mora, and 10,000 bottles means 50 million Mora, which means 160,000 blood-recovering pills. Even if their chambers of commerce have a large number of people, it is impossible for them to digest so many blood-recovering pills in a short time.
Once they find out that Yu Qi can ship unlimited quantities, they will probably naturally give up the idea of buying everything.
On this day, Yu Qi asked Yan Fei about the situation of those large chambers of commerce. After a rough estimate, it would only take a month at most.
"As long as it doesn't hinder me from making money, the rest is up to you." Shaking his head, Yu Qi stopped thinking about these unnecessary things. Anyway, he opened this small shop just to collect ore and kill time.
Do you really want to say that he has compassion for all living beings and wants to use the blood-recovering pills to benefit the ordinary people of Liyue? What a joke, he has only been here for a few days, and he is not yet so philanthropic.
On the other side, Xingqiu did not respond after hearing Yu Qi's complaints. After all, his Feiyun Chamber of Commerce might be involved in such matters, and whatever he said now would be inappropriate.
Looking around Yu Qi's shop, Xingqiu's eyes lit up and he looked at the weapon rack on the right side of the shop with some surprise.
"These weapons..." Xingqiu walked to the weapons rack, looked at the swords flashing with cold light, and turned to look at Yu Qi: "Is there a place for me to try out the swords?"
"Well, there is no place, but..." After thinking for a while, Yu Qi casually threw a large black square 'stone' in the shop: "If you want to test the sword, you can use this. If Young Master Chongyun and Mr. Yun are interested, you can also try your hand."
After getting Yu Qi's agreement, Xingqiu couldn't wait to pull out a sword from the shelf. He raised his finger and tapped the sword, which made a clear and pleasant trembling sound.
The sword was held horizontally in front of him, and the sharp blade flashed a dazzling light in the sunlight. When it was moved slightly, even the air seemed to be cut.
"What a great sword!" Xingqiu exclaimed, then raised his sword and thrust it hard, thrusting it straight at the 'Sword Testing Stone' in front of him.
After a sharp collision sound, the sharp tip of the sword stopped on the surface of the sword-testing stone and was unable to penetrate even a little bit, which surprised Xingqiu greatly.
After thinking for a moment, he took back the sword in his hand, and took out his usual weapon from the Eye of God, a Black Rock Longsword produced by the Liyue Black Rock Factory.
He raised his hand, and with the same force, the same position, and the same speed, he stabbed the sword at the "Sword Testing Stone". Sparks flashed, and Xingqiu looked at the tip of the sword that also failed to penetrate the Sword Testing Stone at all, his expression becoming more and more surprised.
"This stone..." Xingqiu glanced sideways at the sword-testing stone without saying much. After placing the two weapons in his hands together and examining them carefully, he couldn't help but admire them softly.
"It is a really good sword. In terms of appearance, it is even better than the Black Rock Long Sword that I specially commissioned the craftsmen of the Black Rock Factory to make."
You know, his Black Rock Sword was forged by the top blacksmith in the Black Rock Factory using precious ores. Although it is not as good as the one originally made by the famous craftsman, it is also considered a top-quality imitation. In terms of quality alone, it can be said to be the top among rare weapons.
But even so, it is still difficult to compare with the sword in Yu Qi's shop. How can Xingqiu not sigh?
Although it seems that because no precious minerals are added, this sword is not as good as its imitation Black Rock Sword in using elemental power. According to the weapon evaluation method commonly used in Teyvat, its value may be lower.
But it is precisely because of this that it is even more amazing.
Forging a weapon comparable to a famous sword with ordinary ore, even if the famous craftsman Han Wu, who personally developed and forged the Black Rock Sword, were alive today, he would probably be impressed when he saw Yu Qi's weapon!
The most important thing is that according to Xingqiu's observation, none of the weapons in the store are inferior to the sword in his hand. The quality of many weapons is almost the same as they were carved from the same mold, which is bound to make people feel surprised.
Hearing Xingqiu's praise, Chongyun and Yunjin looked at the weapons in their hands with some surprise. Not surprisingly, they were also much better than their own weapons.
Especially Yun Jin, as the contemporary heir of the Yun family, a family of blacksmiths, even though she was devoted to studying opera, she had been influenced by her family for so many years and inevitably had a deep understanding of blacksmithing skills. At this moment, after seeing the natural spear in her hand, she became more and more confused for a moment.
This casting technique has even reached the legendary level of divine casting! !
"Huh! I never thought that Mr. Yu Qi is actually a master craftsman. Yun Jin was disrespectful to him earlier!"
Looking at Yun Jin who was bowing to him solemnly and paying his respects sincerely, Yu Qi scratched his head in confusion. He was a little puzzled but still quickly helped Yun Jin up who was half-bowing.
"What are you doing, Mr. Yun? I'm just an ordinary weapon shop owner. I don't deserve such a generous gift from you."
On the contrary, Xingqiu and Chongyun were not surprised. As members of the Liyue family, they naturally understood Yunjin's feelings at the moment.
The legendary master craftsmen, even among the three major forging families in Liyue, the Yun family, the Kun family, and the Han family, have only produced a few in their thousand-year inheritance.
Every master craftsman stands at the pinnacle of mortal casting skills. In the eyes of ordinary blacksmiths, they are almost like immortals, and they will be paid the deepest respect.
Even real immortals would choose to make friends with them when they see them.
That is to say, Yun Jin has now devoted herself to the opera industry. If she were a blacksmith, she would probably have rushed to Yu Qi and sincerely asked for advice.
Yu Qi, who knew nothing about this, naturally didn't know the inside story. In fact, even if he knew it, he would definitely feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
What master craftsman? The pinnacle of mortal forging skills? Come on, he doesn't have that kind of ability.
It was just relying on the convenience of the Ichiki furnace, plus the Thunder Wolf Heart's thunder elemental power that was comparable to that of a demon god, and his own perfect control of elemental power, he forcibly shaped ordinary iron into a 'special alloy' specially used for ship girl equipment, and finally shaped it with a strong magnetic field.
Rather than forging, it is more accurate to call it 'refining'.
After much persuasion, he finally explained his situation to Yun Jin and the others and cleared up the misunderstanding between them. But even so, Yun Jin's attitude towards him became much closer.
After all, regardless of whether Yu Qi made these weapons through forging skills, the fact that he could do this already made him worthy of the title of "Grandmaster".
"I wonder if these weapons made by Mr. Yu have any reputation, and how much does one Mora cost?" Xingqiu asked, caressing the sword in his hand lovingly.
“Can you accept customization?”
"Hmm? As for a name, I don't have one. It's just something I did casually, so there's no need to give it a name.
As for the price, it varies from 50,000 to 150,000 Mora depending on the type. The sword in your hand is priced at 100,000 Mora."
Although the normal selling price of rare weapons on the market is around tens of thousands of Mora, Yu Qi's weapons are of excellent quality, and their toughness and corrosion resistance far exceed most weapons on the market.
In addition, during forging, the molten iron burned in the furnace for too long and carried a thin spiritual energy. For those who use elemental power, using these weapons can speed up the recovery of their own elemental power, which naturally makes them extremely precious.
Therefore, 50,000 to 150,000 Mora is not really expensive.
Glancing at the classic four-sided Han sword in Xingqiu's hand, Yu Qi said casually, "If Master Xingqiu likes, you can give the sword a name yourself."
"Then, thank you, Boss Yu Qi, for giving up."
Nodding, instead of bargaining, Xingqiu looked at the sword in his hand with satisfaction. After a moment of contemplation, he chanted softly, "After a rain, the surface of the pond becomes calm, like a polished mirror reflecting the eaves (I can't write poetry, so I'll just quote it directly, please don't think too much about it). This sword is as clear as water, and its light shines on people. Why not call it 'Mirror Sword'?"
“Well, good writing!” Yu Qi clapped his hands gently, looking at Xingqiu who was examining the sword in his hand with satisfaction. He then turned to look at Chongyun and Yunjin who were also observing the greatsword and spear, and asked, “Are you two going to buy weapons too?”
"Well! If I don't buy a few of these masterpieces and take them home to examine them carefully, I'm afraid the elders at home won't forgive me."
Yun Jin openly said that he was going to try to steal Yu Qi's skills. Seeing that Yu Qi did not show any dissatisfaction, Yun Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then...
"This, this... and those, I want them all!"
"..." Looking at Yun Jin who ordered all the weapons in the store in one breath and expressed his intention to book the whole store, Yu Qi's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but glance at Yan Fei who was not far away and gave her a puzzled look.
What is the origin of this girl? Why is she so generous?
You know, the weapons Yun Jin bought are not cheap in total, more than one million Mora, which is more expensive than all the pills he just sold combined!
It’s not that I was worried that Yun Jin couldn’t afford the money, I was just a little curious about why a girl from a drama troupe like her would buy so many weapons.
Yan Fei, who was holding a magic ball and looking at it curiously, noticed Yu Qi's gaze and looked up. She immediately understood the situation and chuckled, "Brother Yu, have you forgotten that I told you before that there are three major forging families in Liyue, namely the Han family, the Kun family, and the Yun family!"
"The Yun family? Could it be that Miss Yun Jin..." Looking at Yun Jin in surprise, Yu Qi's doubts were not answered but became even stronger: "But, isn't Miss Yun the head of Yun Han Society? Is she an opera singer? How could that be?"
"That's a long story. Mr. Yu Qi, just assume that I'm not interested in being a blacksmith."
Seeing Yun Jin who didn't seem to want to say more, Yu Qi nodded knowingly and didn't choose to ask any more questions. After Alicia packed all the weapons, he continued, "Then, I will take 1.53 million Moras from you, Mr. Yun, for 1.5 million Moras."
"Deal, but I don't have that much Mora on me at the moment. How about Mr. Yu Qi, come with me to the Northland Bank and I'll transfer the Mora to you?"
"This is fine too."
Looking at the shop which had no other customers coming in yet, Yu Qi nodded, gave some instructions to Alicia, and then walked out of the shop with Yun Jin, carrying many weapons.
Yan Fei, Xing Qiu and Chong Yun, who did not choose to buy the greatsword, also chose to say goodbye and go about their own business.
Just like that, the bustling little shop soon became deserted. Only five barbarians were still cleaning the invisible dust in the shop. Alicia was lying lazily on the counter, watching the bustling crowd outside the door, but she didn't feel bored.
"Well, it's really a leisurely life that makes people feel happy. Of course, it would be even better if there was a beautiful girl to chat with me now?~"
Chapter 73: A Small Assistance to Bring People Closer
Walking side by side with Yun Jin in the sky corridor, feeling the strange looks from the people passing by, as well as the excited looks with malicious intent hidden in the dark corners, Yu Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looking at Yun Jin who was looking down in thought beside him, and couldn't help laughing.
"It seems that Mr. Yun's name is well-known in Liyue. I have seen dozens of people secretly looking at Mr. Yun along the way. There are also a few who seem to be candid photographers and reporters. Judging from their appearance, the gossip about us will be all over the place tomorrow."
Of course, what Yu Qi didn't say was that the, well, let's call them 'cameras' in the hands of those lackeys who tried to take secret photos, had all been secretly interfered with by him using electromagnetic force, and no images were left at all.
"No problem." Yun Jin seemed particularly calm about this. She looked at Yu Qi gently with her beautiful phoenix eyes, with a faint smile in her red pupils: "The clear will be clear, and the turbid will be turbid. This is just hearsay based on hearsay. No one will believe it."
"Of course, if Mr. Yu Qi feels that his reputation will be damaged by this, I don't mind asking the people of Yunhan Society to come forward to clarify a few things. There are only some gossip tabloids around, and it's easy to get rid of them."
Although the girl's voice was soft, her words were particularly powerful and resounding; it was obvious that with the support of the Yun family, a forging family, and the financial backer of the legendary Yunhan Society, Yun Jin was indeed capable of handling these problems.
However, Yu Qi, who had been accustomed to all kinds of scandals and gossip on Earth, naturally knew how to deal with such false rumors. Generally speaking, ignoring them was the best way.
After all, it is human nature to like to watch the show. The more you clarify, the more likely the news will spread, and it will be more likely that the more you explain, the worse it will be.
If the matter really gets out of hand, or if you're really annoyed, just report it to the police and accuse them of spreading rumors and slander.
Anyway, Yu Qi and Yun Jinzhijian only have a simple trading relationship, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
"I don't mind it. It's better to say that being able to have a scandal with Miss Yunjin is something that many men dream of, but have no way to find! I hope Mr. Yun doesn't mind."
"No, I am just an 'actor' in the eyes of ordinary people. These stigmas cannot have any impact on me. By the way, I wonder if Mr. Yu Qi knows anything about drama? Have you ever heard of any opera?"
