National Expedition: Save the Immortal World

Chapter 23
Wei Cheng personally watched Cheng An work as a waiter in a teahouse. After a hard day, he was paid a lot of money with simple tea and light meals including food and lodging.

Then I watched Yu Liang become a waiter in a restaurant, including food and lodging, and his salary was still a lot of money.

Wang Wei went to a cloth shop to become a weaver, with food and lodging included, and the wages were a lot of money.

There are many jobs in Floating Cloud City, which can be found almost everywhere, but the salary will definitely not exceed a big coin, and at the same time, it will not be less than a big coin.

Obviously, this is no coincidence.

But Wei Cheng was not in a hurry to find a job for himself. Instead, he wandered around the small town with a backpack on his back. Of course, he had the confidence to wander around, because he still had 14 yuan of flame stones and five jasper stones in his backpack. Two black iron stones.

These things add up to more than four hundred catties. Many people thought about digging up a few pieces at the beginning, but then they simply threw them away as they fought, died, and practiced.

Only when he was in this small town at this time would he know that these ores must be of great value.

Wei Cheng didn't casually ask where to buy ore in the city, but just wandered carefully along the way, and soon, the layout of the city became clear at a glance.

The two intersecting roads connect the four city gates in the southeast and northwest.

The southeast of the city should be an area where ordinary rich and decent people live. There are quite a lot of shops here, and there are many pedestrians, but most of the shops are for clothing, food, restaurants, entertainment, and the ladies in the brothel are still very beautiful. No fellow?

The southwest of the city is the government office and the living area of ​​the rich families. There are high walls and deep houses, deep courtyards, and quiet streets. If you pass by here, you will be watched for a long time by several times of scrutiny.

The northeast of the city is a residential area for poor people, and another area is divided into markets and inns.

Only when you walk into the northwest of the city can you hear the sound of tinkling iron.

However, Wei Cheng never expected that the scale of smelting in this small city would be so large. Walking into a high wall, one would be met with the deafening sound of hammering iron. The man with his upper body up and wielding a sledgehammer forged a red iron ingot as if no one else was around.

Even though there were no flaws to be seen, Wei Cheng was able to confirm right away that these people were all f-ck fellows from Earth.

No wonder it is rare in the city, so they all gathered here.

"What do you want to buy, officer? My Fuyun Iron Shop has always been honest, with high quality and fair prices. No matter what kind of ironware you want, you can find everything you need."

Suddenly, a voice sounded next to Wei Cheng. Hearing the voice, he saw that he was a smiling fat man, with a kind face and shrewdness.

At first glance, it is indigenous.

"I have some ore I want to sell."

Wei Cheng directly explained the purpose of his visit, and did not hide anything, because everything in this small town showed one thing, simplicity, doing a job, doing a job, getting a reward, this process is simply a matter of course.

This is not only like the opportunity given to them by the trial immortal, so that they can make up for their strength as much as possible, but at the same time, there is a sense of urgency that cannot wait for time.

I don't know if it's Wei Cheng's illusion?

"Of course, and come with me."

The fat man smiled slightly, then turned around and led Wei Cheng to a house outside the high wall, where it was much quieter.

In the room, a tall, mighty old man was sitting there with his eyes closed, but the worry in his brows was obvious.

The fat man came forward and reported in a low voice, "Proprietor, another miner has returned from mining."

The mighty old man opened his eyes immediately, and Wei Cheng felt that he saw a man-eating tiger, but the next moment he felt that he was an illusion.

"How many mines have you mined? What are they?"

Hearing this, Wei Cheng put down the basket, and took out the jasper ore and black iron ore inside one by one, but he wrapped the 14 yuan flame ore in cloth. This thing is used well, it is a big killer, it is a pity to sell it up.

"Five pieces of middle-grade jasper ore, two hundred catties of middle-grade black iron ore, young man, your harvest is not small!"

The mighty old man barely showed a smile at this moment, picked up a pen and wrote a random number on the table beside him, 750 six.

"According to the rules of Fuyun Iron Firm, and because the quantity and quality of the ore you mined have met the requirements, you now have three choices."

"First, turn in half of the harvest, and become the mining and refining master of my Fuyun Iron Firm since then. Some of the mining and refining secrets of my Fuyun Iron Firm can be taught to you."

"Secondly, turn in half of the harvest, and you can ask me, Fuyun Tie, to create a handy gadget for you."

"Thirdly, after deducting the taxes stipulated by the city lord, sell all these ores to me, Fuyun Iron, and you are expected to get 580 taels of money."

There is such a change!

Wei Cheng was very moved, because it was the first time he had heard of the secret technique, and it seemed to be different from the mental and external skills of cultivation.

It's just that learning one more secret technique will consume and involve him more energy?
Before, he exhausted all his means and even gave up all his fat in exchange for a little advantage in the mental method of moving mountains. Does he really have enough resources to support this kind of secret technique that sounds terrible?
With Wu Jiazi's internal strength of moving mountains, can he really rest easy?

Wei Cheng has not forgotten that the bottleneck of his growth limit has already appeared, and it is expected that he will enter a dead end in Liujiazi.

At this time, I don't want to solve this problem, and I have to be distracted to light up other skill trees, which is a big problem.

So far, he has made a decision in his heart.

"Thank you, the proprietor, I will choose the third one."

"good!"

The mighty old man didn't seem surprised by Wei Cheng's choice. He waved his hand and closed his eyes again to rest his mind. It was the fat man who unexpectedly gave him an extra look.

After Wei Cheng took a bag of money and left the room, after walking a certain distance, the fat man suddenly stopped him,
"Brother, why did you make such a choice? Isn't refining secrets good? The refining miners of Fuyun Iron Company can easily refine dozens of catties of crude black iron every day, and they can make dozens of big money. It’s the hen that lays eggs.”

Ok?
Wei Cheng was taken aback, looking at this fat man from head to toe in amazement, wishing he could write "I'm an aboriginal" on his face.

"Hometown?"

The fat man grinned, stretched out his right hand,

"Of course they are fellow villagers, and they are the third batch to enter this Floating Cloud City. Let me tell you, there are actually only tens of thousands of natives in this Floating Cloud City. Work hard, work hard, so most of the class has been achieved."

"It's like me. When I first came here a month ago, I could only be a handyman in an iron company, but now I'm also a second-level manager? By the way, my name is Liu Yahui, from the southeast district of P City, what do you call my brother?"

"The suburbs of P City, Wei Dayong."

"Brother Dayong, let me teach you, in this floating cloud city, opportunities are everywhere. Basically, no matter what profession you are in, you can get a secret technique. Of course, the easiest one is one. You can buy a secret technique for 500 coins. Don't overwhelm yourself with Yiduo, brother, hey, brother, don't leave, I'm really not an intermediary..."
