Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 58 O'Henry's Request
Seeing the young dwarf walking towards the interior of the blacksmith's shop, Wayne couldn't help secretly praising his good luck.

I didn't expect that just looking for a simple-looking dwarf at random, I found a related account, who is willing to do things, which is really rare.

Instead of standing there stupidly waiting for the result, he walked over to the other two dwarves who were still busy, and carefully observed their forging process.

In fact, learning forging technology was included in his plan a long time ago, except that it was difficult to find a good blacksmith because the cost of repairing equipment was too high.

The most important reason is that Wayne believes that with the blessing of the system, no matter whether he is talented or not, as long as he learns forging technology, one day he will become the most powerful blacksmith in the world and create advanced equipment far surpassing other craftsmen.

Of course, this process may take a long time and cost him countless energy, but the long lifespan of a demon hunter makes all his expectations possible.

About 10 minutes later, Wayne saw that the young dwarf who ran into the blacksmith shop, with a clear slap mark on his face, walked out with a smile on his face.

He came to Wayne, laughed, and said:

"Witcher, you are so lucky that my uncle asked me to take you to meet him."

"By the way, my name is Andrew. Don't forget to buy me a drink after you come out. I'm going to the Kingfisher Tavern. I heard that the spirits there are very authentic."

Wayne nodded with a smile and said:
"Of course, Andrew, my name is Wayne, and I will not forget this promise."

He doesn't care about a little money. If this Andrew is a person worthy of association, he will often invite this simple and honest dwarf to drink in the future.

Perhaps it will fall on him to learn forging technology.

The size of the blacksmith shop is not small. In addition to the furnace and anvil at the entrance of the shop, there is also a huge warehouse in the yard, a shed for storing coal, and a living area for the dwarf blacksmiths.

Following Andrew all the way, passing through two courtyards in a row, they came to the place where Master O. Henry lived.

As soon as he entered the yard, Wayne heard a thick voice, shouting:
"Andrew, get out of here and go to work. You kid has already owed me two months' wages for playing cards. If you are lazy, I will even ban you from drinking."

Wayne followed the sound and saw a bald dwarf who was less than 1.5 meters tall but whose muscles were like cast steel. He was sitting on the stone pier in front of the house. The wrinkles on his face were obvious. The snow-white beard on his chin was tied into three braids. He was smoking a pipe and looking up and down impatiently at Wayne.

Hearing the curse, Andrew, who was also quite strong, winked at Wayne like a little rabbit meeting a big bad wolf, reminding him not to forget the treat, and ran out in a hurry.

Master blacksmith O. Henry glanced at his nephew's back, snorted, and then asked Wayne bluntly:

"Half-elf witcher, this is the first time I've seen it."

"What school of witcher are you?"

Wayne pondered for a second, and said truthfully:

"I come from the Wolf School, Master O. Henry."

The master dwarf blacksmith bit his pipe, exhaled a puff of smoke, recalled it for two seconds, and then said with some sighs:

"I haven't heard of it, but 30 years ago, I met a demon hunter from the Griffin School, and he commissioned me to create a master-level armor."

"It took half a year just waiting for him to collect the materials."

"That set of master-level armor not only requires high skills of craftsmen, but also requires the temperature of the furnace."

"For this reason, I had to spend a lot of money to upgrade the furnace to meet the requirements of that set of armor."

"When the armor was finally finished, I couldn't help but burst into tears. It was the most satisfying piece of work when I was young."

Having said that, O'Henry looked at Wayne and asked:

"So, demon hunter, what piece of equipment do you want to build? Are the blueprints ready?"

Wayne nodded, then took out the blueprint copied by Geralt from his arms, handed it to the strong dwarf blacksmith, and said:
"The drawing is here, Master O. Henry, if you need it, my companion still has a finished product for your appreciation."

The master dwarf blacksmith took the drawing, snorted disdainfully, then looked at it for about half a minute, and said:
"To tell you the truth, that human businessman has no face with me, and I have no friendship with you."

"However, since you are a half-elf and a witcher, I can give you two choices."

"The first one, you prepare the materials yourself and the cost of [-] Oren, I can help you finish this master silver sword."

"However, meteorite iron, anti-magic metal, and moon dust, as required in this blueprint, are all quite rare materials. There are no ordinary blacksmiths at all. You can go to the market to try your luck and see if you can buy them."

"As for the second option, as long as you get me something, I can prepare these materials for you, and you don't even need to pay the wages."

"Of course, this item is also quite rare. I have found many contacts, but there is no way to buy it."

"East of the East, wine from Toussaint, East of the East."

"As long as you help me get a bottle of this fine wine, I'll help you for free."

Hearing these two choices, Wayne couldn't help but frown a little. He didn't know much about the material of the sword, or the east of Toussaint, and he didn't dare to say which choice was easier.

So, he considered the sentence for a while, and said in a compromised way:

"Master, whether I choose the first option or the second option, you still need to complete this work."

"How about, you start forging now, and I will collect those materials and things."

"No matter which one I have completed, you will not suffer a loss when you pay the money and deliver the goods."

Master O. Henry thought for a while, felt that this was indeed the case, snorted and said:
"Come on, smart kid."

The dwarf licked his lips, and added:

"In fact, I prefer you to choose the second option. When the time comes, I will buy Dongzhidong, and I can buy you a drink."

Wayne nodded with a smile. In fact, he was also inclined towards the second option. Being able to establish a good relationship with a master dwarf blacksmith is a good thing for him, and even for the entire wolf school of demon hunters.

Master O. Henry is a very straightforward person. After negotiating terms with Wayne, he was driven out of the blacksmith shop without extra greetings.

In order to fulfill the blacksmith's request, Wayne didn't want to stay any longer. After leaving the blacksmith shop, he immediately went to find the person with the most connections he knew so far, the rich businessman Levardon.

As a businessman from the south, he naturally has more channels than northern businessmen to obtain Toussaint's fine wine, east to east.

Wayne's luck is not bad, Levardon's house hasn't been built yet, and he happens to be resting in the tavern today.

After knowing that Wayne visited him, the fat businessman still received him very warmly.

But this time, there was a request, Wayne took the initiative to pay the bill in advance, and ordered a bottle of expensive red wine, which Levardon did not refuse.

After the food and drink were served, the two chatted while drinking. Before Wayne could bring up the topic of East to East, Levardon took the initiative to ask:

"Has Master O'Henry agreed to your request, Wayne?"

Wayne didn't beat around the bush, he told what happened in the morning, and at the same time asked sincerely:
"Mr. Levardon, do you have a channel to buy East of the East? Or is there a channel to buy meteorite, moon dust and anti-magic metal?"

After hearing the words, after thinking about it for a few seconds, Revardon shook his head regretfully, and said:

"Sorry, Wayne, all I do is buy and sell bulk raw materials, such as those rare forging materials, which are not within my network."

He pondered for a few seconds and said:

"However, if you want to buy a bottle of Dongzhidong, I can help."

"But I estimate that it will take at least two months from the time I send out the news, and then it will be specially transported from Toussaint."

"And the cost should be [-] to [-]% higher than the ones on the market. If you can accept it, I can help."
