Artifact Smuggling Specialist

Zuo Lan began to blame himself. He walked side by side with Lincang on the street, and sighed: "The title of Soul Emperor is really scary enough."

Lincang recalled the scene just now, the person in charge of the Lanhui was stunned after Zuo Lan introduced himself, Zuo Lan scolded him for being useless, and then directly ordered the people below to go to practice with Lincang Take a look at the branch of the Weapon Masters Guild.

"Is this Zuo Qiu a direct descendant?"

"The direct lineage is divided into relatives, and he was pushed away." These things are trivial, and it doesn't matter if you tell Lincang, so Zuo Lan said it with an expression of indifference, but then he thought it was funny, "You Are you really concerned about Lanhui's situation?"

Walking with him, Lincang felt very relaxed and calm. If the two of them could go on like this, they would keep walking, not to mention cooperation, old enmity, interests, negotiations... It's also very good, but it's a pity It's all his wish, this wish... when will it come true...

Probably not possible.

"Just asking casually."

But Zuo Lan glanced at him and said, "He will be my right-hand man."

That is to say——does it mean someone who is very important?

Lincang asked again: "Your Lanhui seems to be different from other guilds."

"Of course it's different. This is the giant of the future. It will grow up slowly in the future, as long as it doesn't die. You have seen a lot before. I believe you also know about Lanhui's auction, task platform, soul The Sorcerers Guild is too large, many things have been corrupted, and they are unwilling to move forward, so I will leave this path to me."

There are more and more soul cultivators on the entire continent. In the early stage of cultivation, you can still rely on the world, but in the later stage, you must rely on resources. These resources include soul crystals, horcruxes, various soul arts and other materials. The soul cultivators formed a team to go to some places on the mainland to find materials for their own use. Later, they began to become professional. There were people who specialized in collecting these materials and resources, and they often belonged to some small guilds and organizations. There is a fixed number of people, and they go to some places together to find materials and supplies, and finally sell them or sell them domestically.

This kind of team is generally called a "mercenary team". Most of them take on tasks and do things for others. Originally, a team may have ten people, but casualties may occur due to various reasons. At this time, it is necessary to replenish personnel, and sometimes the team itself However, this process is often hindered by the lack of information, so the employment team often faces dissolution.

Many wealthy individuals do not have the ability to explore on their own, so they invite people to explore. Sometimes they cannot meet a suitable team, and the exploration will be postponed indefinitely.

What Zuo Lan wants to build is such an information exchange platform. Now Lanhui has already gained a certain reputation in the entire auction industry. In the black market industry, Lanhui is also well-known.

Lanhui auctions are not often held, because there are not always high-quality goods, so the number of auctions is not very frequent.

"You know, some mercenary teams will sell some items that they don't need. Now Lan will collect these items like other auctions. At the same time, we will give these people a pass card and tell them that we are here. It’s a stable business, buying all kinds of items for a long time, and asking them to leave the information of the hiring team, promising to notify them if anyone needs to find someone.”

Zuo Lan was not afraid that Lincang would know what he was thinking, because even if Lincang knew, he would not really do such a thing. The Soul Emperors seemed to have nothing else to do, and they alone were equivalent to a force. Sometimes there is a need for soul crystals, but there are not many requirements for others.And now that Lanhui has taken the lead, it would be plagiarism for others to catch up. What's more, Lincang is Zuo Lan's collaborator, so his character is not so low.

"At the same time, we also ask those interested sellers to accept the pass card. This thing is similar to the courtyard card. It is a kind of identity certificate of Lanhui. If they need to find a hiring team or need to find something, Lanhui will represent them They publish tasks and rewards, and then post all the information on the bulletin board, and those who are willing to accept the task will accept the task directly."

"Then what benefits will Lan get?" Lincang asked.

Zuo Lan rubbed his chin: "We will draw a commission from it, and because it involves scheduling the difficulty of the task, there is also a service fee. In fact, the more important thing is that we can find a very stable source of goods and customers. After all, apart from For this information platform, we are still running a black market. The more important point is - popularity, authority, and information."

These three words summed up Zuo Lan's greatest ambition.

He needs higher popularity, greater authority, and more complete information than the Soul Emperor.

The establishment of such an information platform will reach all kinds of people. The hiring team can also issue announcements in the Lanhui. At this time, the intersection of the Lanhui and the entire continent will be quite extensive. There is more news to come into contact with.

Moreover, commodities can be bought and sold, and news can also be bought and sold as commodities.

Lincang was silent, looked at the tall building in front of him, and stopped: "Then, in fact, the partner of the Artifact Refiner's Guild is not very important."

"No, it's important."

Zuo Lan shook his head and refused to say any more, "You'll know when I go to discuss business in a while."

Ninetowns’ Artifact Refiner’s Guild, which is subordinate to Ninetowns Soul Art Guild, is still under the leadership of the Soul Art Association in name. At this time, there are not many people in the lobby. There are both types and types. It is a Horcrux display that every craftsman's guild will put outside to show the strength of the guild.

The guild often received some large orders for Horcruxes, and Zuo Lan brought their honorary president to place the order today.

"My customer, is there anything I can do for you?"

A young woman standing behind the counter raised her head and came out gracefully, a scent of makeup and powder came over her face.

Lincang stood behind Zuo Lan in a cloak without saying a word, looking like Zuo Lan's servant.

With Lincang, a man with a different temperament standing behind him, Zuo Lan looked like the young master of a big family, so the woman who received him was very polite and did not take him lightly.

Zuo Lan said: "I'm placing a big order, is the person in charge here?"

This was really a bit impolite, and the reception girl of the Artifact Refiner's Guild immediately covered her lips and smiled lightly: "Sorry, I am the person in charge of the lobby, and most people can't see the person in charge, unless it is someone with status on the mainland. People, such as the leaders of the major guilds, important figures of the major families, the five emperors, eight honors and nineteen nobles of the Soul Continent, important figures of the Nine Great Soul Academy, and some special figures from other forces, who are you?"

Zuo Lan was underestimated.

He chuckled, put his hands behind his back, but lowered his head slightly, showing a humble look: "The young patriarch of the Zuo family in the Ninth Soul Academy area in the northwest of the Soul Continent."

The reception girl covered her lips and smiled, but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.

It's just that she just wanted to say that Zuo Lan was not qualified, but she didn't want Zuo Lan to speak again: "President of Nine City Lan Association."

This time, the girl's face became a little stiff. As one of the persons in charge of the lobby, she naturally knew about the cooperation between the high-level executives and Lan Hui. Big client.It's just that Zuo Qiu and Xue Chongshi were the ones who came to discuss business before Lanhui. When did this person come out?She frowned and wanted to speak again, asking about Zuo Lan's identity, but she didn't want Zuo Lan to report her family name in the next sentence.

"This is Zuo Lan, a student of the Ninth Soul Academy and a tutor of mainland history."

There were quite a few people in the lobby, and when Zuo Lan said the last sentence, almost all of them were stiff, looking sideways——

The young man was standing in the hall, wearing a silver-gray silver robe with silver fox fur on the cuffs, with a calm expression, deep-set eyes, a smile on his lips, and a humble appearance, but everyone who had heard of this man People with names just feel the chill coming from their feet.

Zuo Lan's name has become a name that makes people curious and admirable, but also a little scared.

The reports about Zuo Lan on the ghost communication platform always have a slightly derogatory connotation, saying that Zuo Lan was ruthless, he created the first homicide case of Xiaobi in the hospital, and he was murderous to the same family, and then inexplicably won the Xiaobi in the hospital. Victory in the final of the competition and became the chief.

At this time, Zuo Lan reported his identity by himself. In fact, he only needed to say "the chief student of the Ninth Soul Academy" was enough.

Because the head of each soul academy will become a man of the soul continent.

A living legend stands in front of them.

The young patriarch of the Zuo family, the president of the Lanhui, the chief of the Ninth Soul Academy...

Multiple identities are gathered in Zuo Lan, superimposed layer by layer, making the halo on the young man's head heavier and more palpitating.

At this moment, Lincang looked at Zuo Lan in front of him, and suddenly realized that he was no longer the child who could be played with by him at will, he had already started to grow, and soon, very soon, he would look up to him too.It's just that he didn't have any jealousy in his heart, he was just happy to see him grow up so maturely, calmly and even ruthlessly.

Maybe, there is a little bit of heartache...

Because he himself is the culprit.

The waitress was completely stunned, and she stammered: "You... no, are you looking for the person in charge? I'll go up and call for you. Please wait a moment—"

After finishing speaking, he stumbled upstairs, and a waiter with a good look came over and asked Zuo Lan to sit aside.

At the position by the window, the tea set was set up, the tea was quickly served, and then stood respectfully aside, sweating coldly.

Zuo Lan and Lincang sat down facing each other. He was playing with a small black sign with an inverse cross engraved in his hand, waiting for someone to come.

After a while, the person in charge came down from upstairs, followed by the enchanting girl from before.

Lincang has already told Zuo Lan before that the person in charge is called Gu Dong, his father's surname is Gu, and his mother's surname is Dong. The family members don't know how to name them, so they just call them Gu Dong. The regional affairs of the Northwest Ninth Soul Academy is cunning and capable of handling affairs. It is said that he has a good eye.

He has actually met quite a few big men, and people at Zuo Lan's status can only be regarded as ordinary people. In the eyes of the people in charge below, they may not be bad, but in his eyes, they lack so much meaning.The person in charge is also a master of the Artifact Refiner's Guild, so he is arrogant. Although he looks like a wretched man with a big belly, his eyes are very contemptuous.

However, Zuo Lan is special after all, he is an upstart.

Nouveau riche, used exclusively to describe those high-level executives of newly emerged forces, who are about to become famous but not yet fully famous.

He weighed Zuo Lan's weight in his heart and walked to the front. When he saw a man wearing a black cloak sitting next to him, he frowned immediately. He didn't have a good impression of Zuo Lan. Who did he bring to the Craftsman Guild?

He first bowed to Zuo Lan vainly and said, "Hi, the reception staff of our guild didn't take good care of you before, which caused you trouble. What kind of big business do you want to bring to the Craftsman Guild?"

This man's words are full of traps, Zuo Lan could tell right away that he was setting himself up, if Zuo Lan didn't come up with some big business, he would be laughed at in a blink of an eye, but I'm afraid it was to make this man Disappointed, what Zuo Lan brought was really big business, and I was afraid that the Artifact Refining Masters Guild would not be able to take it.

Now Lanhui has started to make a profit, and its reputation has also begun to emerge. Zuo Lan is very busy recently, but Zuo Qiu also follows the blueprint given by Zuo Lan to develop Lanhui very well. He did not misread Zuo Qiu, this person is a think tank , and quite capable, and can further help Zuo Lan in the future.

Zuo Lan raised his head and glanced at the antique, thinking that this guy has small eyes and a small nose, but a big mouth. He held the tea, but stretched out his little finger and pointed to the west seat, "Mr. Gu, please sit first. Business needs to be negotiated slowly, please help me to see this brand first."

The veins on Antique's forehead twitched. If he hadn't been struggling for so many years in the most complicated soul art guild in the Soul Continent, he would have sprayed Zuo Lan's face with a mouthful of saliva. Baby's behavior clearly looked down on him, pointing with her little finger to ask him to sit down, even the Soul Emperor would not be so rude!

He snorted coldly and sat down, thinking that he should take a good look at the brand Zuo Lan gave him.

Originally thought that this guy must have a reason to be arrogant, but he didn't want to look at the sign in his hand, he almost vomited blood in anger.

"The workmanship is rough and simple, isn't it just a common communication card? That is, the pattern is a bit unique, and I haven't seen it before. Look at the refining technique, it's an insult to the crafting technique, and the formation is crooked It's..."

crackling...

With a smile on his face, Zuo Lan listened to Antique's rebuke on the sign he threw over, Lincang just sat there and didn't serve the tea, pretending that he didn't exist, and didn't respond, just listened.As the honorary president of the Artifact Refiner's Guild, Lincang's artifact refining techniques are naturally top-notch.

There are also nine levels for refining masters, from the lowest level ninth to the highest level one. The criterion for judging is what kind of Horcruxes can be trained.

The lowest level is basically ignored, because the requirements are too low, and the standard is to be able to refine ordinary weapons; counting from the low-level Horcruxes that can be cultivated into shape, this is the eighth level; the middle level of character corresponds to the seventh level , and so on.

A refiner who can refine high-level horcruxes of the heavenly rank can be called the first level, but at present, those who can refine the horcruxes of the earth-grade rank in the Soul Continent are already quite advanced. I heard that the theoretical classification is like that, but in reality such a classification hardly exists.

Heavenly grade Horcruxes are generally conceived by the heavens and the earth. To refine a heavenly grade Horcrux, it is almost impossible to win the great fortune of the heavens and the earth.

Speaking of which, Zuo Lan still doesn't know what level Lincang's refiner is.

A refiner who can refine ground-grade soul weapons can already be called a "grandmaster". There have been more advanced ones in the history of Soul Continent. Soul Emperor Qianyu, a good friend of Mei Ziqing, is said to have once Refining a celestial horcrux, so Qianyu is also called a "master craftsman".

But at this moment, the person who was chatting endlessly in front of Zuo Lan was a fifth-level craftsman, that is to say, he had successfully refined a handful of earth-grade low-level Horcruxes that met the standards, which was considered very powerful.

From the beginning to the end, Zuo Lan didn't interrupt him, and when he had finished speaking, he put down his teacup and interjected: "This is my first experimental product, but this business of mine is related to it."

Antique's expression suddenly became a little exciting, the first refining thing?Zuo Lan came here to place an order for something that was refined for the first time?

"Are you here to frighten me?"

"The manager is joking. I really came to place an order. This brand is just a style. What I really need is the same shape as this one, but the function..." Zuo Lan put it off, but said slowly, " To be precise, this is a system that we can divide into master control and client..."

That's right, ultra-modern design.

Zuo Lan wanted to make this information platform into something like Weibo in his original era.

This is an interactive information platform. People who have a pass card can receive various information from the master control, and can see the announcements on the bulletin board and various information summaries, but their own client is an independent, Individuals who do not communicate with others can pass their own information to the general control through the pass card, which will be reviewed by Lanhui and sent to the bulletin board.

"For example, if you are the person in charge who uses the common card, you are the captain of a mercenary team, and the mercenary team just hunted a unicorn in the Red Snow Forest. You need to sell the unicorn Go out, so you can enter the image and various information about this unicorn in the pass card, and then the master control will receive your information, publish the seller's information, and then the seller will pass other pass cards Seeing the news of the sale of unicorns from the master control, so I sent a message to the master controller, and at this time, through the pass card, the master control, and the pass card, a two-line transaction was planned."

"Afterwards, the hiring team is idle and has no tasks. It can also be reported to the master controller. At this time, the master controller can publish the information of the hiring team on the bulletin board, so that employers can check it through the pass card. Interested employers You can contact the master control of Lanhui, and it’s the same principle as selling unicorns above.”

In fact, there are many other uses besides these.

It can also serve as a platform for task release, from which everyone can see the released task and the difficulty level and reward of the task, and notify Lanhui to accept the task.

Youlan will act as an intermediary, and both the information of the hiring team and the employer can be well protected. After all, some people don't like their information being exposed.

The businesses that can be extended from this information interaction platform include rating the employment team, establishing a task point system, and so on.

Lincang, who was wearing a cloak, cast his gaze on Zuo Lan's face faintly, and he suddenly laughed silently, as expected, he still underestimated him.

I'm afraid that in the Palace of the Soul Emperor, no matter whether it is Mei Ziqing or others, they would never have imagined that Zuo Lan could have so many genius ideas in his mind.

It is conceivable that if such a platform appears, its usefulness will probably be greater than that of ghost communication platforms.

Antique really made his eyes widen.

He stared blankly at Zuo Lan, listened to his detailed statement, and was silent for a long time before touching his chin. He no longer dared to underestimate this young man, and said after consideration: "Actually, it is to create a network that communicates with ghosts." The platform system is similar to the Horcrux system, right? But this is more difficult, because it is a two-way interactive system, the difficulty of building and the number of formations that need to be described will be many, and we cannot guarantee whether it will be successful. We can only try our best Give it a try, it’s indeed a big deal.”

Zuo Lan nodded: "You don't have to worry about the rewards. We can afford how much the system of the ghost communication platform cost. We can add [-]% to that price. We don't need too much for the time being. The client will do it for the time being." One thousand pieces, just the master control, let's make three."

Want three master controllers?

Antique was stunned again, not understanding what Zuo Lan was thinking.

"I estimate that most of the craftsmen in the guild will need to be mobilized, and the president needs to be consulted, but I don't know if Lord Lincang has the time to pay attention to this matter. As for the price - let me figure it out." He pinched his hand Fingers, doing mental calculations.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Lan rolled his eyes, put a golden abacus on the table with a bang, flipped his fingers quickly, and only heard a series of crackling sounds: "A pass card weighs three, two, four, and a thousand pieces , the materials needed: ten squares of waste crystal raw stones, the market price is 130 million per square, a total of 300 million; 300 million catties, a total of 35 million; for labor costs, the price for a fourth-level refiner in your Refiner's Guild is 300 million. You just said that you need to mobilize the entire branch, which is about 50 people. As long as there are four-level refiners, I heard that there are 200 people in the branch who have level-four and above refiners, and the labor cost is 100 million."

"A total of 650 million. Considering the unavoidable loss of materials during the refining process, assuming that the loss rate is 50.00%, the material cost is 900 million. Let's just give you 4000 million. In addition to your painstaking research and development, do a good job Help me build the system, so the labor cost is increased by 30.00%, which is 700 million, but I need you to provide me with very good after-sales service. I am not a one-shot deal. We still have a lot of follow-up orders, so The labor cost is 3000 million. The final total is 7000 million."

Zuo Lan's lips moved quickly, and his fingers flipped quickly. After finishing speaking, he looked at the antique who was still in a daze, and asked, "7000 million, do you accept this order?"

This is a rare large order, and Zuo Lan has only made a thousand clients at present. In the future, Lan will expand, the information interaction platform will also become larger, and the number of clients needed will naturally increase. This is a long-term business, Zuo Lan Lan also bought after-sales service, this is a local tyrant!

Antique hurriedly reflected from his smirk, "This order will definitely be accepted, definitely accepted!"

"This is the deposit, three mid-level soul crystals of the heavenly grade." Zuo Lan directly took out a small kit from his storage ring and put it on the table. His soul power is definitely mid-level Tianpin.

He was very excited inside, if he could make such a big deal, he would definitely be able to transfer back to the First Soul Academy area, bah!What do I think, Zuo Lan and Lan Hui are such a rich man in Jiucheng, so I'd better stay here!There is also a commission for making a business!

This 7000 million is not too much, but the plan Zuo Lan described to him before is quite ambitious, how many soul crystals will flow into his arms in the future?

"Okay, okay, Young Master Lan is really generous and generous. Lanhui will definitely do a lot in the future!" Wearing thousands of clothes, flattering and flattering, Antique almost smiled, but he thought of another question, "But it's so big We have to report the business order to the General Headquarters, and we can start to do it after Master Lincang approves it..."

When Zuo Lan heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes, picked up the tea, pointed at Lincang, and hummed, "Why are you so reserved, show your face!"

Zuo Lan was so yin and yang, he heard that Antique was very strange, and then he remembered that there was a man wearing a cloak beside him, and became curious, Zuo Lan can solve this matter?

But what happened next stunned him.

The man in the cloak seemed to sigh helplessly, and then stretched out a pale palm. The finger pressed the edge of the cloak, and the hood was lifted off, and the brocade-like hair was let loose, not to mention that Black and white hair, but that face is the most shocking!

As the person in charge of the Ninth Soul Academy area, Gu Dong saw Lincang from a distance, and what impressed him most was the pair of blue eyes.At this moment, he felt that the blood all over his body was flowing backwards, this person turned out to be Lincang!

Lincang, the emperor of Tianyuan in the Hall of Soul Emperor, is also the president of the Artifact Refiner's Guild!

He knelt down with a plop, "My lord Lincang!"

Zuo Lan sneered, but didn't speak, just looked at Lincang playfully.

Lincang stretched out his hand and pressed Gu Dong's shoulder, and said softly, "Get up."

Gu Dong didn't dare to stand up, "This subordinate didn't know your lord was here, so I was rude earlier..."

"No need to say too much, those who don't know are not guilty. There is an intention to cooperate between the Artifact Master Guild and the Lanhui. You don't need to report this time, just do it."

Lincang didn't stop him either, he just knelt if he liked.

He turned his eyes to look at Zuo Lan, but said: "Let's go after we've finished talking."

Zuo Lan raised his eyebrows, and threw the teacup casually, causing Antique, who was kneeling on the ground, to tremble in fright, oh my god, what is this for!

It's a pity that Zuo Lan couldn't hear Gu Dong's wailing, he just stood up and snorted: "The Emperor of Soul is majestic, so let's go."

Lincang was really shot while lying down. He asked himself to solve the problem before, but now he even ridiculed his prestige, saying that high-ranking people are moody, but he is not as quick as Zuo Lan, who can turn his face faster than turning a book.He could only helplessly shake his head: "Up to you."
