How to price something like Xingyingmu is that the beholder sees benevolence, and the wise see wisdom. In the past, Xing Yingmu was basically in the hands of the Song Clan. The Song Clan, who was good at doing business, would definitely not surprise people with the price they offered, only shocking. However, in view of the importance of the resuscitating potion, and the fact that there is a huge difference in the potency of the potion with or without Xing Yingmu, the Imperial Army can only hold its nose and bear it.
What is in front of us now is the three star cherry trees, and they are of high quality. The resuscitating potion used for refining has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. How to price the lives of six senior generals
Lan Xincheng was stunned for a long time, Fang smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Qianye actually has a star cherry tree in his hand, this is a problem for me. It is not easy to bring these three things out, right?"
"It does take up a lot of space."
What Xing Yingmu occupied was precious storage space. As far as Lan Xincheng could touch, the storage space of the space equipment could be one or two cubic meters, which was quite good. If there is a space for star cherry trees, it would be better to add a few jars of ginkgo wine.
The place where ginkgo wine can really sell at a high price is Yongye, and the value is much higher than that of Xingyingmu. Qianye chose to bring Xing Yingmu back, which can explain a lot in itself.
Lan Xin knew it well, sighed, and said: "Your Excellency has a heart, so how about this, each of these three star cherry trees will be priced at half a box of dragon scale moss. Your Excellency only needs to take out three more, and those supplies will be yours. .”
Qianye smiled and said, "I would like to take it, but unfortunately there are not so many."
"That's true. It's not easy to cultivate star cherry trees, and it's not easy to mature. The ones with a little quality have been picked long ago. With these three, we will be able to relax a lot in the battle of floating land. We want to let those aristocratic families take To develop the real core strength, we must give them some protection, right?" Lan Xincheng laughed.
This is common sense, for example, Zhao Yuying, Zhao Junhong and others should always carry some life-saving items with them to ensure that they will not fall in the chaotic battle. The resuscitation potion is one of them, and it is very effective. Threats and lures are not as effective as giving resuscitative potions to let the elites who have spent a lot of resources and time to cultivate go to the battlefield.
Lan Xincheng looked at Qianye helplessly, and said: "It's almost done now, as long as there is another half a box of dragon scale moss, everything in this booklet will be yours. Look, it is hundreds of tons of high-quality The outer wall plates, and more armor plates. The difficulty of this kind of thing lies in the large quantity. It is not difficult to get one ton or two tons. If you want to get more than ten tons, you have to be a marshal to approve it."
This is true. The empire's annual output of various steel alloys may be tens of millions of tons, but none of them can be used as warship plates. Judging from the plate grade given by Yilan Xincheng, it is still above the standard, so it is even rarer, and it is a veritable strategic material. Otherwise, how can it stand side by side with the Mountain-class engine and the Strider-class main gun
Qianye pondered and said: "I still have things, but it's not easy to estimate. Also, how do you price these courses?"
"One hundred tons of battleship plates."
Qianye raised his eyebrows and said, "There are only twenty people, and each is worth five tons?"
"Of course it's worth it." Lan Xincheng remained expressionless, "The empire trains warship commanders using simulated arrays, and just the array is running, which is equivalent to a mothership advancing at full speed."
"How big is that array?"
"At least it can cover your dark fire headquarters."
"The handwriting is not small." Qianye was slightly surprised. The so-called simulated array is like the combat simulator deployed in the training base of the Imperial Army. The two are on the console at one end, and the phantom fights in the middle. It's just that it is magnified by hundreds or even thousands of times for the training of warship command, and the user feels as if he is in an outer space battlefield, and the effect is naturally extraordinary.
"The imperial fleet has been able to repeatedly defeat the strong with the weak, and maintain outer space without loss. There is some reason for it."
Qianye nodded. Having served in the Imperial Army, he knows that outer space is actually another battlefield where blood cannot be seen, and it is even more tragic than the ground. Once a battleship is severely damaged, there is almost nowhere for those ordinary sailors to escape in the void. If the rescue is delayed, even the general will surely die.
Qianye destroyed Lin Jiaer's fleet, and in the end Lin Jiaer could only escape with less than half of the people. Most of the crew died when the battleship was destroyed, and there was no possibility of survival.
Under such circumstances, being able to keep the outer space intact and protect the safety of the three continents of the empire, behind the brilliant record of the floating fleet is actually the excellent command art, combat quality, and the cold bones of countless soldiers.
Hearing what Lan Xincheng said, Qianye knew that it was unrealistic to want the other party to send instructors over. So he asked again: "Then can these places be transferred?"
"Transfer? Of course you can. But Lord Qianye, are you sure you want to transfer?"
"I probably won't need that much. Besides, some of my friends probably need it more."
"Well, after all, the number of places is yours, and you have the final say. But I want to remind you that this training device takes at least three months to overhaul every year, and the number of people it can accommodate is also limited. There are only a few people a year. One hundred training places. Otherwise, how could one place be worth five tons of warship plates?"
"I understand." Qianye nodded.
There are not many talents worth cultivating in Dark Fire, especially the loyalty of many people is still difficult to guarantee. If Song Zining was here, with his means, he would naturally be able to hold these guys firmly in his hands. But Qianye didn't have this ability. It was evident from the fact that Nan Qingcheng had an accident the moment Song Zining left. If it was only Qianye who went to the maelstrom, then Nanqing City would remain the same until now, and Zhang Xuance would not even be able to enter Nanqing's gate.
On the other hand, Qianye actually doesn't place much importance on floating battleships at the moment, and doesn't need an independent battleship commander. Instead, he needs qualified gunners, on-board equipment maintenance and damage control personnel, and the accompanying marines are also needed.
Qianye needed a large amount of warship manufacturing materials for other purposes, so naturally he would not tell Lan Xincheng.
Qianye searched Anduya's space for a while, then took out another small box. The box is no more than the size of a palm, so it can't hold much in it. Lan Xincheng took it over solemnly, not daring to neglect it at all.
The value of a treasure has nothing to do with its size. Qianye has already taken out such good things as dragon scale moss, ginkgo fruit, and star cherry wood, and the rest are worth looking forward to.
The lid of the box was opened, and there were pieces of crystal clear blue petals inside, filling most of the box.
These were all found by Qianye from the two-armed natives, and they don't know what they were used for, even Ji Tianqing and Li Kuanglan couldn't tell. But just looking at it feels good, and it is treasured by the aborigines, so Qianye took a lot of it, and it doesn't take up space anyway.
Now Qianye took it out, just to see if Lan Xincheng knew the purpose of this crystal petal. Lan Xincheng has worked in the equipment department for many years, he doesn't know how many treasures he has seen, and his eyesight is far superior to those of the appraisal masters.
But staring at the crystal petals for a long time, Lan Xincheng pushed the small box in front of Fang Zhan, "Xiao Fang, you guys from aristocratic families have studied jewelry, let's see what this is?"
Fang Zhan took it, took out a small bag, and opened it to reveal a whole row of precision tools inside. He also has space equipment, but it seems that the capacity is very small.
Most of the tools in the small bag have never been seen or heard of by Qianye.
Fang Zhan smiled and said: "This is my little hobby, gem identification and processing."
He took out a special small caliper with a layer of thin and soft skin on the surface of the caliper, so that the surface of the gemstone would not be lost. After picking up a crystal petal, Fang Zhan put it under a portable observation mirror, and set up a bracket with a metal bead on the top. Immediately, a ray of light shot out from the metal bead, shining on the crystal petals.
He put his eyes on the observation mirror, slowly turned the crystal petals, and constantly adjusted the brightness and chromaticity of the pearl beam.
Such a professional appraisal method immediately changed Qianye's impression of Fang Zhan. In Qianye's mind, those jewelry appraisers basically use their eyes to see, at most they wear glasses or a magnifying glass or something. Just looking at the tool, it's like Zhan doesn't know how many levels are missing.
It seems that there is a reason why Fang Zhan was able to get the mission to the neutral land. Those who only know how to eat, drink and have fun are dudes, but those who can study in depth to the extreme are masters.
After looking at it for a long time, Fang Zhan sighed, and the eyes looking at those blue petals have become much gentler. He coughed lightly, and said, "If I expected it right, these petal gems should have been real petals before, but for some unknown reason, they turned into gems."
Lan Xin's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Like Hai Hai Liansheng?"
"Almost. However, after the sea lotus is solidified into jade, it still retains considerable potency, and the original potency of these petals may not be strong enough. After turning into gems, they are basically just pure gems."
"I see." Lan Xincheng looked disappointed.
Fang Zhan said: "The value of these petals is not low. General Lan, you see, the lines on the inside and outside of the petals are all natural, and no two pieces are exactly the same. And in terms of color, shape, and purity, these are all It's a top gem."
Lan Xincheng knew the value of jewelry, but he didn't feel much about this kind of pure decoration, so he turned to Qianye and said, "My lord, there are other treasures, can you open our eyes?"
Qianye also had no idea about these gem petals, and after hearing that they were ordinary gems, he didn't feel anything. Anyway, I have gained a lot in the maelstrom this time, and I can always find good things.
He was searching Anduya's space, Fang Zhan quietly pulled Lalan Xincheng and said, "General, take away these gemstone petals."
"What... can this be used for?" Lan Xincheng was a little embarrassed. After Fang Zhan's appraisal, he also knew that these gemstone petals were of high quality and valuable. With such a large box, it is no problem to buy more than 100 tons of high-quality warship plates. But he is not an ordinary businessman, and the concept of trading is not the equivalent of money. Using strategic materials in exchange for jewelry, he still has some difficulties in his heart.
Fang Zhan lowered his voice and said softly: "General, this kind of gemstone made of natural petals has never been seen in the empire. Except for this box in our hand, there is no more."
Lan Xincheng hummed, but did not express his opinion.
Fang Zhan finally got a little anxious, didn't care so much, and said bluntly: "Two months later is Empress Li's birthday. In the hands of a master craftsman, these petals can be made into a complete set of jewelry, and it is unique! As Empress Li A birthday gift, regardless of value or art, is enough."
Lan Xincheng finally moved his heart.
