Demon Slayer Starts From the Proficiency Panel

Most of the people who can open a shop in Qianji Pavilion are not ordinary people.

According to the regulations of the Fumo Division, only those who are above the sixth rank of a certain path can apply for the qualification to open a shop in the Thousand Machines Pavilion.

That is to say, if you open a drugstore, you must be of the sixth grade or above.

If you open a weapon and armor shop, you must be at the sixth rank or above of the Forging Dao.

In the same way, the same goes for the shopkeeper who opened the puppet shop. In the three thousand miles of the avenue, the puppet road is actually not unpopular.

Folk cultivating land and carrying goods often use the help of wooden cows and horses. These things come from the hands of puppet masters.

Speaking of Puppet Dao, it is actually a relatively new Dao, which originated from the Carpenter Dao.

Descendants found a new way to specialize in the field of puppets, and it took more than three hundred years to complete the new development, laying a unique style and foundation.

The puppet Tao was completely out of the category of the carpenter Tao, and finally had its own school and cultivation method.

In the past, puppet masters also needed to use iron wire, copper wire and other carriers as a medium to control the actions of the puppets, but now, the ways to control the puppets have already become full of tricks and emerge in an endless stream.

Therefore, there are many puppets as commodity-like existences, which have been passed down to the people and become helpers in the daily work of the people.

After wandering around in the Thousand Machines Pavilion, Ning Xiu finally found a very deserted puppet shop.

When he entered the store, there was no clerk who came to greet him, but a woman sitting behind the counter didn't know what to do.

He didn't even raise his head, he didn't even look at himself.

Ning Xiu was curious, and immediately leaned over, intending to see what this person was tinkering with.

The woman has a light and familiar appearance, she looks about twenty-six or seven, and her hair is casually tied in a braid and draped over her shoulders.

Ning Xiu looked down from the height, the woman's nose was high and her eyes were cold, her facial features were extremely delicate, but she was a natural beauty.

I saw that she was constantly changing tools and playing with a three-foot-sized wooden figure on the table. Slowly, without seeing any tricks the woman used, she saw that the little wooden figure danced automatically on the table.

The woman suddenly smiled knowingly, even making such an inconspicuous little thing can make her feel happy from the bottom of her heart.

"It must be the spirit of a craftsman." Ning Xiu sighed inwardly.

Seeing that the other party stopped, the work should have been completed, and Ning Xiu asked aloud: "Are you the shopkeeper of this shop?"

The woman looked up at him and nodded: "Exactly, my name is Nie Ying, what do the guests want to buy."

"That's it, I want you to order a puppet that can be accommodated in the body according to my Wengjin hammer. The requirements of the puppet are to be able to resist blows, not to move slowly, to be easy to control, and to be realistic."

Ning Xiu raised the thunder hammer in his hand, and then he said a few requirements for the custom puppet.

Nie Ying's expression was flat, and she was not surprised at all. After listening to Ning Xiu's request, she took a soft ruler and walked out of the counter.

Very professionally, he began to measure the various dimensions of Ning Xiu's Thunder Hammer.

"How heavy is your weapon?"

"Three hundred and twenty pounds."

After measuring the various dimensions of the Thunder Hammer, Nie Ying put away the soft ruler and asked: "It is not difficult to make a custom puppet, and the price is usually not too expensive, but there are two points in your request that belong to the material order. It requires the use of expensive materials, otherwise it will not meet the two requirements of fighting resistance and fast action that you said, can you accept it?”

Ning Xiu said: "How many silver taels do you need?"

"To be conservative, at least one hundred taels of gold." Nie Ying thought for a while, and finally stretched out three long fingers.

Hearing the other party's offer, Ning Xiu almost choked on the spot.

When Huang You bought this Thunder Hammer, he spent 4,000 taels of silver.

In the Dashang exchange measurement system, one tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver.

I plan to equip the Thunder Hammer with a scabbard, but I have to spend another thousand, which is really good money.

"Treasurer, what's the point of a puppet of a thousand taels? You might as well introduce it to me so that I can have a better understanding." Ning Xiu said.

"Of course it's fine. I usually make puppets for others. Most of them are made of wood, which is cheap, lightweight, and durable. It's mainly because those people use these puppets to carry and carry goods.

If it is put into a battle with evil or other people, it will basically end up being broken when touched, so our puppet masters usually use iron, bronze and other ore materials to build puppets for combat.

But this kind of material has a drawback, that is, the speed of action is not very fast. If you are in a hurry, it will even delay your travel speed.

In order to deal with this situation, our puppet master has come up with many solutions, which is to choose those special materials that are light and hard to make puppets.

But good things usually have a disadvantage, that is, they are expensive. If you want to have a puppet that is resistant to fighting and moves quickly, you can't avoid spending more money.

At present, the most used special materials are Yinhui Meteorite from Nanjiang Prefecture and Tianteng Longmu from Daliang Prefecture. They are not afraid of fire or water, and can withstand a force of about 3,000 jin.

Both are good materials that are light and hard, but the price is there, both are expensive. "

Nie Ying's introduction was very detailed, and it completely made Ning Xiu understand why this custom-made puppet was worth a thousand taels.

After listening to it, Ning Xiu couldn't help but feel a little moved. If this is the case, it is a perfect container that can store the Thunder Hammer on a daily basis.

But now Ning Xiu has just joined the Fumo Division, but he is a little shy.

The only money on him was the three hundred taels of silver that he had obtained from the body of the three-faced demon before.

Thinking of this, Ning Xiu asked, "Treasurer, can I pay you a deposit of 300 taels first, and after the puppet is completed, I will give you the remaining 700 taels."

Nie Ying waved his hand: "Well, I'll start building it for you."

"It's work." Ning Xiu nodded, and after talking with Nie Ying in detail about his requirements for the appearance of the puppet, he left the shop.

Previously, on the body of the three-faced monster, in addition to the three hundred taels of silver notes, he also got two bottles of unknown medicinal pills and three skull darts.

Ning Xiu had always wanted to sell all these things, but he never had the chance to do so.

It is rare to be free today, and he is in a trading place like Qianji Pavilion. Naturally, Ning Xiu will not miss this opportunity.

In addition to encountering evil spirits, Fu Mowei usually goes out to investigate tasks. It is also common to find monsters fighting with them.

The things you loot from the monsters, either you have the conditions to use, or you will get the Qianji Pavilion to sell some silver taels.

Ning Xiu first wanted to sell medicine pills, so he walked into a medicine pill shop on the same street.

The business here is much more lively than Nie Ying's puppet shop, and the shop is filled with a fragrant spice smell, which makes one can't help but smell it a few more times.

"Please, show me these two bottles of medicinal pills." Ning Xiu took out the medicinal pills he carried with him and put them on the table as he walked to the counter.

The alchemist with the goatee stretched out his hand to take it, unplugged the plug and smelled it lightly, and a surprised look appeared on his face.

"Dragon Tiger Jingmeng Pills! It's still a rare good quality, one can go from night to day, the last one is sunset and dusk, the next one is dawn, people don't know how tired they are, and the more they fight, the stronger they become. "

The alchemist gave a thumbs up and asked, "Little brother, the quality of your stuff is really high. I don't know where you got it from. Can you reveal the location of the store?"

Although this person's words are a bit obscure, but Ning Xiu can't hear the meaning.

Originally, I thought that the bottle contained something extraordinary, but I didn't expect it to be anything serious at all.

Never would have thought that a monster would be so good at this.

Ning Xiu had no choice but to ask, "These two bottles are just what I got by accident. I don't know who the alchemist is. Do you accept them?"

"Take it! It's rare to see such a high-quality Dragon Tiger Essence Pill. I will definitely take it. Let's do it. I'll give you one hundred taels of silver for two bottles."

Immediately, Ning Xiu looked at the other party with a half-smile, but did not respond.

Although he didn't understand the market value of the Dragon Tiger Jingmeng Pill, he had accompanied Lu Hao and the others to the Chunman Pavilion for a drink.

The other party once mentioned to himself that those things used by princes and nobles are always extended for an hour or two, and the price of a bottle is usually more than fifty taels.

These two hours can be sold for more than fifty taels, and the other side's mouth is "the last one is sunset and dusk, the next one is dawn", which violates human health and operates scientific forbidden instruments.

Talent is only worth two bottles of one hundred taels?

What a huge kickback for this, a profiteer, a profiteer.

"Brother, if you tell the truth, if you tell the truth, we can still negotiate this deal."

Ning Xiu patted his chest and raised his finger again: "I have a friend who is called a whore to the end. I used to be a frequent visitor to Chunman Pavilion, and I used this as candy every day. I bought it for him a few times. I can't be more clear about this, don't look at me and want to kill me a few times."

"This..." The alchemist looked hesitant.

Seeing this, Ning Xiu grabbed the two bottles and was about to leave, but he didn't panic at all. In this huge city facing the sky, he was worried that there was no place where he could sell Dragon Tiger Jingmeng Pills.

"Three hundred and two bottles! I'll give you this price." The alchemist shouted in a hurry.

This price has met Ning Xiu's expectations. No matter how expensive it is, it won't be too expensive. He turned around and put the bottle back on the counter and said, "That's right, buddy, don't worry, I will have something similar in the future. Bring you here."

After receiving the 600 taels of silver notes from the alchemist, Ning Xiu walked out of the medicine shop with the thunderbolt hammer.

At this time, there are only the three skeleton darts left on his body, and he can sell as much as he wants for some money, so that he can make up for the 700 taels of the custom puppet.

After Ning Xiu left, the alchemist reached out and poured out all the Dragon Tiger Essence Pills from the bottle, counting as many as seven.

Seeing this, the alchemist smiled and said: "With such a high quality, as long as I find a way, it's not too much for me to sell fifty taels of those princes and nobles. After all the two bottles are sold, I will still make a profit without losing money."
