Chapter 257 The auction is over
All morning.
Lin Youdu spends his time testing the practicality of various flying equipment.
Wei Gang and several of his men unfortunately became his experimental subjects, attracting countless leaders, passing businessmen and practitioners to watch.
Basically, every time something is tested, it will cause a lot of cheers.
The entire flying dock became lively.
And the other side.
In the secret holy land.
As noon arrived, the outside of the Shifang Auction House became extremely lively, with countless lords and cultivators gathering from all directions.
Because the rare tenth-level equipment will be filmed soon!
Whether they are exploring the main plane of monsters or working in the sanctuary.
Everyone put down what they were doing and rushed over to gather outside the Shifang Auction House. The hustle and bustle was like a temple fair.
"I heard that in addition to the tenth-tier equipment, Shifang Pavilion has also prepared many high-tier treasures for auction. This time we will really feast our eyes."
"Isn't it? Look over there, many important figures above level nine are here."
"I guess they all come here for the tier 10 equipment."
"I never thought that Shifang Pavilion would actually get a 10th-rank blacksmith. I'm afraid Wanbao Tower will be worried now."
"And it is said that this tenth-tier equipment auctioned by Shifang Pavilion was made by a dwarf blacksmith."
"Dwarf blacksmith? Really? Don't dwarves usually have no contact with the outside world? How can Shifang Pavilion hire them!?"
Exclamations continued to ring out among the crowd.
There was a lot of noise outside the auction house. Fortunately, the Lu family team was there to maintain order, otherwise it would have been chaos.
at the same time.
The backstage inside the auction venue.
Lu Zhenxing, who was in charge of the auction, was sitting in the reception room discussing things with several level ten warriors.
"Zhenxing, I have been friends with your Lu family for more than ten years. Can you introduce me to that dwarven blacksmith?"
An old man with a white beard sitting nearby spoke in a gentle voice.
"Mr. Yu, you can't say that. You have a relationship with the Lu family, but don't we have any?"
Another middle-aged man in purple and gold clothes interrupted immediately.
"Indeed, everyone knows that it is extremely difficult to create a rank 10 equipment. It often takes several months, and it may not be successful. Your friendship is not worth these months of time."
An old woman sitting in the middle with a cane sneered, revealing a few missing front teeth.
Upon hearing this, the remaining few nodded silently, and then expressed their desire to get to know the dwarf blacksmith.
The whole reception room was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and Lu Zhenxing, who was sitting in his seat, was sweating profusely.
Of course he knows.
These strong men came here to ask the dwarf blacksmith for help in making equipment.
But the problem is, Lin You had mentioned before that you should not reveal any information about him, otherwise he would cut off all ties with the Lu family.
This is something Lu Zhenxing absolutely does not want to see.
The Lu family finally managed to get such a big shot, so they couldn't hide it, so how could they give up this rare opportunity? For both public and private reasons, he couldn't reveal anything about Lin You.
But if I refuse directly, I'm afraid these level 10 warriors will get angry on the spot.
After all, he is only at the eighth level, how can he withstand the wrath of these strong men?
The aura that was emitted from it alone was enough to make him unable to breathe, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Swish! At this moment, a figure flashed by.
The old ancestor of the Lu family, with white hair and beard, suddenly appeared behind Lu Zhenxing and put his hand on his shoulder.
"You go and preside over the auction first, and I'll talk to them."
“Ancestor!”
Seeing his ancestor, Lu Zhenxing felt relieved and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After hurriedly taking his leave, he left the reception hall and rushed to the auction venue, leaving only the Lu family ancestor and several tenth-level powerhouses inside.
No one knows what they talked about.
Meanwhile, the auction outside was proceeding smoothly amidst cheers like a torrent and tsunami.
But these have nothing to do with Lin You for the time being.
Because he had been staying in the territory and was too lazy to join in the fun.
It was not until mid-afternoon that he finally finished testing all the small flying vehicles.
Originally he wanted to test medium-sized vehicles.
But he didn't have any extra power cores or materials to make it, so he gave up for the time being.
In summary, small basic vehicles have their advantages and disadvantages.
For example, a rocket is very fast, but it has no way to change direction and can only be used to travel in a straight line.
Another example is a magic broom, which is convenient and nimble, but has poor balance and is difficult to control.
These characteristics are not suitable for mass production and use by subjects of varying strengths.
Only jet backpacks are relatively stable and can be mass-produced as a tool for short-distance travel.
[Flying Vehicle: Jetpack]
【Category: Small】
[Speed: 30 km/h]
[Consumption: 5 mana/hour]
[Introduction: A small vehicle used for daily travel, which uses magic energy to convert power, has strong stability, and can be freely controlled in the air. ]
The speed of 30 kilometers per hour is not as fast as that of the magic airship.
But with the support of the flying dock, it can also reach a high speed of 72 kilometers.
Not bad.
It is enough for daily single use.
Anyway, this small vehicle is not expected to fly out of the principality.
At that time, he would set up a rental deposit and rent it out to the people in the territory and those practitioners who were out on adventures. Wouldn't it be easy to make money?
After all, there were still many practitioners who wanted to experience the thrill of flying.
After putting away the experimental vehicle, Lin You turned his head to the side and looked at Wei Gang and others who were sitting on the ground, sweating profusely from exhaustion.
"You've worked hard today. Go back and rest. I'll give you half a day off."
"Thank you, Lord."
Wei Gang and his companions breathed a sigh of relief. After a whole day of trouble, it was finally over.
"By the way, Wei Gang, when you go back, please inform Manager Xue and ask him to assign more people here. It won't be long before this place becomes another large market."
"Yes, sir!"
Wei Gang was shocked and answered loudly.
At the same time, I was secretly frightened.
This place.
Is it going to become a large market? Is the Lord going to make some big move? But there is no time to think about it.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lin You had already mounted the Demon King Dragon and flew into the air in a gust of howling wind, rushing back to the territory.
It was not until he disappeared that several of Wei Gang's men could no longer hold back and spoke out.
"Commander, could it be that the Lord wants to turn this place into a trading area?"
"But this place is so desolate, why would the Lord choose such a place?"
"What are you guessing? Do you think you can just randomly guess what the lord is thinking?" Wei Gang retracted his gaze and turned back to glare at them.
Then, he couldn't help but look in the direction where Lin You disappeared, and said solemnly: "You guys have been working for the Lord for so long, you are loyal, so I will give you a few words of advice. After you go back this time, quickly ask your family members to buy a piece of land here with Xue Zongguan, I guarantee that you will not lose out."
"Commander, are you telling the truth?" Several men's eyes lit up.
Practitioners like them who work for Huangsha City and have reached level six or above are qualified to own a piece of land to build a residence.
But now Huangsha City is developing rapidly, and every inch of land is valuable.
It is almost impossible to acquire land within forest areas.
Only an old man like Wei Gang, who had served the lord in the early days, or someone who had made great contributions to Huangsha City, could purchase land in the central location.
Others can only wait in line.
But they are a little reluctant to choose land in marginal areas.
So when they heard Wei Gang say this, they couldn't help but feel shaken and couldn't believe it.
"What? Can I still deceive you?" Wei Gang looked very disappointed. "The Lord just gave you instructions to give you a chance! If it's a little later and the land has been planned, you can just kneel down and cry."
Having worked under Lin You for such a long time, Wei Gang is very familiar with Lin You's temper.
He is definitely a person who clearly distinguishes rewards and punishments.
Their hard-working performance today was obviously appreciated by the lord, so he revealed such an important matter to them before leaving.
If it weren't for the fact that these men were his trusted confidants, Wei Gang wouldn't even bother to reveal this information.
As for whether they can grasp it, it depends on their own luck.
After thinking about it, he quickly stood up, muttering to himself.
"I think Old Xue is going to cheat me out of a few bottles of good wine again. It's really unlucky."
Cursing, he also mounted his horse and rushed back towards Huangsha City.
"Commander, wait for me!"
Seeing this, the other people also reacted and hurriedly followed his footsteps, disappearing into the forest in a short while.
When the onlookers saw that there was nothing to watch, they gradually dispersed.
But there were still a few merchants who smelled something unusual. After taking a look at the flying dock in the distance, they hurried into the city.
In a blink of an eye.
Afternoon arrives.
Lin You in the territory calculated the time and teleported directly to the Holy Land and headed towards Shifang Pavilion.
And at this time.
The auction at Shifang Auction House has also ended.
A large crowd of people poured out of the venue, all excitedly discussing the grand auction that had just taken place.
As the person in charge of the auction, Lu Zhenxing was surrounded by delegations from various major forces and received all kinds of congratulations and compliments.
At this time, Lu Zhenxing could almost be said to have become a powerful figure in the center of the entire holy land, and was fawned over by countless forces.
His status and position even surpassed that of the person in power in Wanbaolou.
No one dared to offend him again.
Because they all knew that after this auction, there would definitely be many level 10 experts who would come to the Lu family and ask for the opportunity to create level 10 equipment.
This also invisibly elevated the status of the Lu family.
Let them be elevated to the same level as the forces behind Wanbao Tower.
If you don't curry favor now, when will you?
"Third Master, there is a man claiming to be Master Lin, and he is asking to see you outside."
Suddenly, a shout came from outside, interrupting everyone's compliments.
"Mr. Lin?"
Lu Zhenxing's face changed. Who else could come to him at this time, and who was the young master surnamed Lin? He dared not think too much, and immediately apologized to the people around him:
"Everyone, I'm really sorry, I have something important to do, so I won't chat with you any more."
After saying that, without giving them a chance to react, he hurried away and rushed outside.
Representatives from all the major forces looked at each other in shock.
Who on earth has such a big face that can make Lu Zhenxing, whose reputation is at its peak, change color and become so anxious? Immediately.
Some people, out of strong curiosity, hurriedly followed out, wanting to find out the other person's identity.
But unfortunately.
When they came outside, they found that Lu Zhenxing had already left and disappeared.
