Tai Tan hesitated, then spoke.
"Actually, Young Master, these three blueprints you gave us, my son and I racked our brains studying them for a whole week before we could barely make them.
You want us to make a hundred sets of each, I'm afraid it will take a very long time…"
Ling Yun immediately understood, no wonder he reacted that way.
Ling Yun smiled and shook his head, a confident smile on his face.
"It's alright, for the next period of time, I will frequently come here to give you on-site training.
With me personally guiding you in forging these, there definitely won't be too much trouble.
Once you cultivate this basic Hidden Weapons forging knowledge, mass production of other Hidden Weapons in the future will be a breeze."
"That's excellent, only you understand these items best. With your guidance, we will be able to familiarize ourselves with the structure of these blueprints more quickly."
Tai Tan nodded with a relieved expression, thus agreeing to the cooperation plan.
Ling Yun was also quite satisfied with this. He pulled out 1500 gold coins from his person and placed them on the table.
"Grandpa Tai Tan, my teacher and you agreed that the cost of these three experimental Hidden Weapons sets would be 500 gold coins per set.
Here is a total of 1500 gold coins. Although we have already agreed on the profit sharing for future Hidden Weapons, I still have to give you the money for these three items first."
Looking at the hundreds of gleaming gold coins, Tai Tan repeatedly shook his head.
"Young Master, this was the price my teacher and I discussed. As the Young Master of our Strength Clan,
you don't need to pay for this cost. Consider it a greeting gift from our Strength Clan to you."
Ling Yun immediately straightened his face and said decisively.
"This won't do. Regardless, these three experimental items cost you a lot of time and resources.
Besides, whatever price my teacher and you agreed upon before, that's what the price should be.
How can it change because of my status? What if others have resistance towards me?"
Tai Tan originally intended to lower the cost to 1000 gold coins, but Ling Yun refused him again.
He also stated that if Tai Tan did not accept the full cost, their cooperation would cease, and he would no longer visit the Strength Clan.
Tai Tan's expression stiffened, and he looked indecisive. Ling Yun quickly controlled the nearby Puppet Yu Xiaogang to step forward and persuade him.
"Clan Leader Tai Tan, just as Little San said, we agreed on a cost of 1500 gold coins. How can that change just because Little San is your Young Master?
If you find it difficult to accept Little San's gold coins, then consider these gold coins as coming from me. If they come from me, surely you can't refuse, right?"
This time, Tai Tan finally relented and accepted the 1500 gold coins given by Ling Yun.
Ling Yun also waved his hand, putting the three Hidden Weapons and arrows into his storage space, and continued to discuss cooperation matters with them.
By the time Ling Yun and Puppet Yu Xiaogang left the Strength Clan, it was already past two in the afternoon, and they had even eaten lunch at the Strength Clan.
Tai Tan and Tai Nuo were incredibly enthusiastic about Ling Yun, their "Young Master."
Several times he tried to leave, but they held him back, insisting he eat lunch before leaving, which made him quite speechless.
After leaving the Strength Clan, Ling Yun and Puppet Yu Xiaogang immediately rushed to the auction house in Heaven Dou Imperial City.
To quickly sell the three items he had on hand and gain a large profit, an auction house was indispensable.
After the two bought tickets and entered the auction house, Ling Yun controlled Puppet Yu Xiaogang to go to the reception desk and ask a female staff member.
"Do you have an appraiser here? I have three items I want to auction, and I need an authoritative one."
The female staff member, hearing that they wanted to auction items, immediately said patiently to him.
"Excuse me, two guests, could you let me see the items you wish to auction first?"
Ling Yun nodded without hesitation and directly released the three Hidden Weapons from his storage space.
All three Hidden Weapons contained sharp metallic gleams, and the female staff member couldn't help but feel a threat from these three items.
The female staff member quickly scurried away and soon returned with an appraiser dressed in a black robe.
The appraiser's gaze fell upon the three Hidden Weapons, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Puppet Yu Xiaogang, asking tentatively.
"What are these things? Please forgive my lack of discernment."
Ling Yun controlled Puppet Yu Xiaogang to pick up the Sleeve Arrow placed on the reception desk, manipulating it skillfully, and said.
"I call this the Sleeve Arrow. It is the simplest of the three items, with continuous single-target attack effects, composed of three arrows and a sleeve tube.
It can be equipped on the hand. Its characteristics are high speed, strong penetrating power, and because it is silent and can be concealed within the sleeve, its concealment is extremely strong, making it the best self-defense method for a support system Spirit Master."
Of course, Ling Yun did not mention the Sleeve Arrow's drawback, which was its insufficient power. Against opponents of too high a strength, the Sleeve Arrow would be difficult to be effective.
Due to its good concealment, a sudden attack still posed a good threat to Spirit Masters below level sixty.
Even if its power was insufficient, if it hit the eye area, it could still kill an enemy with one blow.
Ling Yun directly equipped the Sleeve Arrow onto Puppet Yu Xiaogang's right arm without firing the arrows.
After all, this was an auction house with many people coming and going, and he was afraid of injuring someone.
Ling Yun's introduction made the appraiser's eyes gleam with golden light. If what the man in front of him said was true, this Sleeve Arrow was definitely a good item.
And this was still the simplest of the three!
His interest was greatly piqued, and he quickly urged.
"What about the others?"
Ling Yun understood that he had piqued the other party's interest, so he slowly took off the Sleeve Arrow and picked up the Flying God Claw.
"This item is called the Flying God Claw. It is forged from several metals, making it extremely hard, capable of easily penetrating metal and stone, and possessing powerful destructive force.
Most importantly, this item can allow ordinary people to walk on walls and ceilings, and its internal mechanism can withstand over three hundred jin of contraction."
This explanation seemed somewhat abstract, so Ling Yun directly raised the Flying God Claw towards the ceiling.
The Flying God Claw shot out abruptly, hitting the hard rock of the ceiling and firmly gripping it.
The next moment, Puppet Yu Xiaogang flew up to the ceiling in front of the appraiser and other staff members, standing upside down on the ceiling and looking at the appraiser.
This scene made the appraiser even more interested. He realized that this thing was definitely the best artifact for killing and plundering.
Finally, Puppet Yu Xiaogang returned to the ground and picked up the last item, the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow.
"I call this the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. It has a decent range and extremely strong penetrating power.
The most crucial thing is that it can be equipped with forty-eight arrows at once, and when encountering an enemy, it can fire sixteen arrows simultaneously, causing very significant damage."
Can be equipped with forty-eight arrows simultaneously, and fire sixteen arrows at once?
The appraiser's pupils couldn't help but slightly contract. Was this a joke?
