Studying Science in the Alternate World

  Chapter 29 Spirit Gold

  In the past month, Duke heard more than one gossip about the pioneering war.

   Neighbors are discussing in private.

  However, the Black Snake Family did not have much news about the pioneering war. The entire Snake Head Town was still operating as usual, and there were not many outsiders entering.

  If there is a pioneering war, there will definitely be a large influx of outsiders who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make contributions and make a fortune.

   "I'm really not sure about this. I've asked several acquaintances of the Black Snake family, and they don't know either, but..." Boss Winster paused, leaned over and whispered, "I think Boss Little Duke, it's definitely right for you to stockpile more materials. I don't know if there will be a pioneering war, but there is definitely a medium-sized spiritual spring!"

"really have?"

   "This is my judgment. First, there are a lot of spirit beasts in Cuihai Valley, and there are also many mercenary groups going there; second, the Black Snake family's failure to refute the rumors is the biggest evidence. The higher-ups must still be planning, so they let go of the rumors!"

  After listening to what Winster said, Duke nodded in agreement: "I also judge this way."

   There must be a reason for the groundless rumors.

   Chatting all the way, they came to Shenjiao City.

  Duke took Levine and ran through several purchase stores, and the purchase volume was much larger than before.

  Before, he used to purchase half a month’s supply at a time according to the old Sam’s standard. Now that the store is earning a lot of money, he simply buys a month's supply at a time, and makes several trips to make sure that once the opening up war is launched, Little Sam's repair card shop can have enough supplies to maintain it. Anyway, most of the materials have a long shelf life.

   "Levin, can you handle it?"

   "It's easy to hold." Levin carried the sack and smiled foolishly.

   "Then let's hurry to the next stop." Duke himself also carried two big bags, which would have been very tiring before, but after starting the Blood Sea to practice Dou Qi, he relaxed, "There are still many tasks to do today."

"OK."

   Sitting on the rail bus, Levin wiped the sweat from his head. It was the hot summer season, and he was sweating every time he moved.

   "By the way, Levin, have you ever drank blood-boiling potion before?" Duke chatted casually.

"No."

"Why?"

   "No money." Levin smiled stupidly.

  Duke asked again: "Boiling blood potion is only 11 silver dragons, are your parents willing to pay for this amount?"

  Levin thought for a while, and replied: "My brothers have drank it, but it's useless. My dad said I'm too stupid, and it's useless to drink it."

"All right."

  11 Silver Dragon's purchasing power is equivalent to more than 1,000 yuan.

  But such a small amount of money is unaffordable for many poor families. Moreover, drinking the blood-boiling potion may not necessarily open the sea of ​​blood, and there is a chance of sudden death. Even after opening the blood sea, one may not be able to cultivate into a knight. After all, there are subsequent expenses such as contracting spirit beasts, replenishing spirit beast meat, and so on.

   "It's like children in mountainous areas can't read books..." Duke made an inappropriate metaphor in his mind.

  After many twists and turns, I finally bought all the consumables from the card repair shop, and went to the card shop and spiritual tool shop to buy the procured products one by one. Duke took Levin back to the small hotel.

   "Just stay in the room, take care of the goods, and don't wander around."

"OK."

   "Eat when you're hungry, drink when you're thirsty, and don't think about saving." Duke pointed at the pile of food he bought, "In short, don't leave the room, and don't leave even if anyone calls you, understand?"

   "I know." Levin nodded seriously.

  The goods were worth a lot of money. After repeated warnings, Duke left the small hotel alone.

  In Shenjiao City in the evening, various neon signs displayed with slide cards have been lit up, creating another lively and chaotic atmosphere for the street.

  Duke went straight to a Lingjin store.

  Spiritual gold is spiritual metal, a special material for making spiritual weapons and arcane weapons. A very small part of ordinary ore will be infiltrated by spirituality, and after refining, it will become spiritual gold, which is many times more expensive than ordinary metals.

  There is a black snake spirit gold smelting factory in Sheshou Town, and the billowing black smoke never stops.

   "Boss, 500 grams of amber gold, 55 grams of gray tin, 28 grams of refined silver, 10 grams of copper, 5 grams of skystone and 5 grams of lead white..." Duke took out a list.

  Haggle one by one.

  In the end, this batch of spirit gold consumed a total of 3 gold dragons and 21 silver dragons.

   After swiping the Linglong card, Duke looked at the balance displayed on it, which was less than one gold dragon, and felt a little numb.

  Little Sam's card shop is booming, but it can't keep up with the recent extravagant spending. Especially after opening the blood sea, he and Xiaodou had to eat meat, which increased the financial burden.

nowadays.

   Have to buy this batch of spirit gold again.

   "Buy it, buy it, you can't increase your strength without spending money!" Duke put away his pain, and quietly left the Lingjin store with this small bag of valuable Lingjin.

  …

   "Boss." Levin opened the door.

  Duke took a glance, everything was there, nothing was lost.

   "It's getting late, you go take a shower and go to bed early." Duke sent Levin to take a bath, and he carefully hid the Lingjin at the bottom of the bag.

   Then he crossed his legs and began to practice the blood refining method.

  Xiaoyi kept hanging up the phone and meditating.

   It is equivalent to saying that Duke is alone, and he is practicing two exercises at the same time, without any interference with each other.

   "Although this small hotel is located in Shenjiao City, the spirituality dissipated from the spiritual spring is not as much as that in Sheshou Town..." Duke felt the speed of spiritual absorption and shook his head.

  Relying on the spring of spirituality, human beings build cities and market towns.

  However, most of the spirituality dissipated from the fountain of spirituality is monopolized by the rich and powerful, and too little is really revealed. On average, it is not enough to fit the teeth in the entire city.

   "When I save money later, I really have to buy a spiritual plant, otherwise my spiritual cultivation will be too delayed!"

   "In addition, the knowledge about the sea of ​​​​qi is almost complete, so Xiaoyi must start arranging the opening of the sea of ​​qi as soon as possible, otherwise, the older you are, the more sluggish the sea of ​​qi will be."

  The three seas of the human body are basically developed before the age of fifteen.

  Over the age of fifteen, the spirituality gradually loses, and Sanhai will continue to slump until it cannot be opened.

   Nothing to say all night.

  The next morning, he took the black beetle car back to Snake Town smoothly, handed over the work of moving the goods to Levin, and Duke quickly returned to his warehouse to remodel the room.

   "Chi Chi!"

   A small pocket of fluff has grown out, like a big plush squirrel, round and fleshy.

  As soon as Duke beckoned, it quickly jumped from the table, and then drew an arc trajectory, landed on Duke's shoulder accurately, grabbed the dried meat that Duke gave, and gnawed it voraciously.

  It has only been half a month, and Xiaodou has already given birth to a trace of spirit beast demeanor.

   "Go play by yourself, I want to do something big!" Duke touched Xiaodou's head, took out a small bag, and spread it on the desk. Inside were several small paper bags.

  In each small paper bag, there is a kind of spiritual gold.

  In addition, he also took out a large box from under the bed, which contained another kind of spiritual gold—steel essence.

  Steel is somewhat similar to aluminum powder, and it is a broad and basic arcane material. The main production object of the Black Snake Spirit Gold Smelter is steel fines. Duke buys it directly from the factory, and the price is much cheaper than the market.

   "The spirit gold has been assembled, and the next step is to refine them one by one!"
