Chapter 1099 Customization
Walking the Earth Demon was just a casual reminder, and seeing Xu Chuniang’s insistence, he cheerfully informed Master Pomegranate of his residence.
“She lives in the area of North Main Street in North City, the one courtyard with two golden geibeys guarding the door is her residence.”
Xu Chuniang searched for her according to the address provided by the Earth-walking Demon, and sure enough, in front of one of the mansions, she saw the two golden geibeasts guarding the gate.
These two golden geibeasts, one sitting and one lying down, sensed someone approaching and immediately opened their eyes alertly, looking over in the direction where Xu Chunniang was.
The golden geibeast on the left sized her up, saw that she was a new face, and spat out, “Who are you? What is your business here?”
“My surname is Xu, I’ve heard about Master Shihuang’s name for a long time, and I want to ask her to help me refine a magic treasure, so I’d like to trouble the two of you to introduce me to her.”
Jin Geibi had a business-like attitude, “Master Shijuana is very busy, her list for the last thirty years has been filled, she won’t be receiving any outside guests for the time being, so please go back.”
Master Shihuang was specialized in forging, and there were countless people looking for her, so it was rather normal to be rejected.
Especially in this Extraterrestrial Abyss City, forging masters were very scarce, and Master Pomegranate’s status and reputation, was even higher.
Xu Chuniang came here just to try her luck, and now that she had eaten a closed door, she was ready to return home.
However, at this moment, the Earth-walking Demon sent a new summons.
“You’re suddenly asking me about Master Pomegranate’s residence, but do you want to find him to forge a magic weapon?”
Xu Chuniang thought for a moment and replied, “Not bad, I was at the auction and saw a few magical weapons and magical treasures forged by Master Pomegranate’s own hands, and they all looked very good.”
The Earth-walking Demon’s reply was quick, “Hehe, in terms of forging skills, in this Abyssal City, if Master Pomegranate claims to be the second, no one would dare to call him the first.
However, Master Pomegranate is very busy, I’m afraid that it would be difficult for you to find your way there so hastily.”
Xu Chuniang honestly said, “I didn’t even see Master Pomegranate’s face before I was stopped by the two golden geibeasts at the entrance, and they said that Master Pomegranate hasn’t been available for the last thirty years.”
“Hahaha, that’s just a pretext, Master Pomegranate is indeed busy, but not to this extent, as a matter of fact, she and our major merchant houses, have always had a stable cooperative relationship, if you want to find her, you might as well just look for us, the merchant houses that work with her.”
Xu Chuniang was puzzled, “I see, then how long would I have to wait if I were to look for you guys directly?”
“This, naturally, depends on what exactly you want to build, generally speaking, if you can provide the raw materials, the speed of production will be a bit faster.
Specific matters can’t be said clearly in the summons, if it’s convenient for you, you can come to the store to discuss in detail.”
“Alright, then I’ll come over.”
Xu Chuniang put away the summoning talisman, turned around and left North Main Street, heading in the direction of the market.
When she arrived at the store, the Earthwalking Demon was already waiting for her, and when he saw Xu Chuniang, he nodded slightly as a greeting.
“Say, what level of magic weapon or magic treasure do you wish to create? Grandmaster Pomegranate had a word, she wouldn’t take orders that were too ordinary, and the grade of the magical weapons and magical treasures that were created by her hands were all Earth Demon Upper Grade at the worst.
Of course, every penny counts, and the price of hiring her is several times higher than other forging masters in Yuan City.”
“I saw a Soul Fixing Bead handcrafted by Master Pomegranate at this auction, with a grade of Heavenly Demon Upper Grade, and the final price was 600,000 magic crystals, and what I want to create is a magic treasure similar to the Soul Fixing Bead.”
“Soul Fixing Bead ah ……”
The Earth Walking Demon frowned slightly, “This Soul Fixing Bead is a consumable type of magic treasure, as the degree of use increases, the utility will get worse and worse, this kind of consumable type of magic treasure is actually not as cost-effective as a magic weapon. After all, a magic weapon of the same level, although it is more expensive than a magic treasure, but if it is used properly, it will not be a problem to casually use it for a few hundred or even a few thousand years.”
Xu Chuniang was unmoved, “I know all that you said, but what the Soul Fixing Bead can do, a magic weapon may not be able to do.”
“I see.”
The Earth-walking Demon remembered that not long ago, Xu Chuniang had bought away quite a few soul nourishing items from his hands, and seemed to realize something, not advising any further.
“Our merchant bank has signed a cooperation agreement with Master Pomegranate, but we are not the only merchant bank that has a cooperation agreement with her… I have just looked at the schedule, and the earliest you can get Master Pomegranate’s hand-cast magical treasures will be a year from now.
And I’m afraid that the price is not much advantageous compared to that soul fixing bead in the auction, if you don’t provide the raw materials, at least 400,000 to 500,000 magic crystals.”
A year was not too long.
As for the price, she had plenty of magic crystals on her, so it was even less of a problem.
Xu Chuniang slightly pondered, nodded and said, “Yes, magic crystals are not a problem, you help me contact Master Pomegranate, let her refine the soul beads for me, the quality?…… naturally the higher the better.”
“OK, according to our merchant firm’s past experience with Master Pomegranate, the price of a Heavenly Demon top grade Soul Setting Bead is between forty-five to five hundred thousand, if Master Pomegranate is in good condition and refines a Heavenly Demon extreme grade Soul Setting Bead, then another one hundred thousand magic crystals will need to be added on top of that.”
As the Earth-walking Demon spoke, he quickly drew up a contract and handed it to Xu Chuniang, “Take a look at it, and if there’s no problem, pay the deposit.”
Xu Chuniang took the contract and scanned it, the contract was written in both detail and comprehensively, all kinds of circumstances were considered.
“One Soul Fixing Bead, it might not be quite enough, can you have Master Pomegranate refine a few more at once? I’ll add money.”
“I’m afraid this …… isn’t quite right.”
The Earth Walking Demon revealed a difficult look, “Although Master Pomegranate has cooperation with our merchant bank, but the quota is limited, with my authority, I can only fight for such a quota for you, I can’t do anything more.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Chuniang did not say any more, and cheerfully signed the contract, paying a deposit of 200,000 magic crystals.
When a year had passed, she only needed to finish delivering the remaining magic crystals, and she would be able to take the Soul Fixing Bead away without any problems.
The Earth Walking Demon put the contract away in a small box, “I’ll contact you after the Soul Fixing Bead is refined.”
“Good, did you keep the top-grade Star Soul Grass and top-grade Wood Scented Soul Recovery Pill that I asked you to keep an eye on for me earlier?”
“I’ve kept them all for you, but there aren’t many of them, with my authority, I can only keep one Superior Grade Star Soul Grass and two Superior Grade Wood Scented Soul Recovery Pills for you, a total of three hundred and eighty thousand Demon Crystals.”
Xu Chuniang nodded with satisfaction, “Alright, I also have a batch of goods to go out this time, so give me an estimate, it’s still the same old rules, more refund, less compensation.”
Saying so, she took out fifteen or sixteen magic materials from the Dragonball space and placed them on the case table.
While inspecting the goods, the Earth Walking Demon quickly assessed the value of these magic materials in his mind, and soon gave an offer.
“These magic materials are a total of three hundred and thirty thousand magic crystals, just make up another fifty thousand magic crystals to me.”
