Super Equipment
Chap 58's
...~•~...
The rare item didn't seem too good, but Rous only nodded because he didn't want to offend her. Steng laughed, put away his sword, and sighed.
“Hah~ when we players can ship our own goods to ladies auction?”
Rous felt it from the beginning, but there was something strange about the conversation. There was something he had to ask Steng to correct the misguided conversation.
"So...the reason you're here now isn't to put the items you made up for auction? You're on a mission to put your master's things up for auction? ” Rous asked.
Steng smiled and replied, “Of course. Even the number one blacksmith, Panmir, was unable to create items that could be displayed at the auction, so how could I possibly?”
“...Can you share mission information?”
"Huh? Why?"
"No, I just wanted to check."
"certain. It's not a secret, so I'll show it to you. ”
[The 'Steng' player wants to share mission information. Do you want to accept?]
Rous is received and search information appears.
[Teacher's Task]
[Difficulty: C.
This was the first auction to be held after the appointment of Winston's new mistress.
Blacksmith Razvan will use this auction as an opportunity to show her skills to Miss Winston and to gain a foothold in Winston.
So he gave you, his student, a task.
Quest Clear Conditions: Send Razvan's work to Winston's mistress's auction.
Quest Completion Prize: 20 gold.
* If Razvan's work is successfully auctioned, he will give you a new production method.].
Rous forgot, but common blacksmith players often had NPC blacksmiths as teachers. By constantly carrying out the missions given by their teachers, they could raise the level of their blacksmithing skills and obtain new production methods.
He was lucky that Khan gave him any unconditional method of production.
"I'm sure after seeing this mission information."
Players did not come here to submit their works to the auction. They run errands for their teachers, like Steng. As Steng had said, it was impossible for current production-grade players to produce such an outstanding item that would satisfy both the woman and the knight Winston.
Rous can see it clearly — the difference between him and the general player is huge. He did not feel much inspiration when he made items with epic ratings, but ordinary players were only happy to make rare grade items. Rous was thrilled when he realized the prowess of the legendary profession.
"If you don't mind, can I see your teacher's stuff?" Steng asked Rous with a passionate look.
"I don't want to do that," Rous rejected it because it felt like something troublesome was about to happen.
Steng felt sorry. "so. Then how else. By the way, that's amazing. Your teacher didn't set the offer price ..."
"Yes. Do you happen to know the average price for armor and gloves with a level limit of 120?”
“Even if the items are of the same level, the options are different. Well, normal armor is 300 gold and gloves are 100 gold.”
“Epic rating?”
"Wow! Did your Master create an epic item? Making epic items really unusual!” Steng admired him before kindly giving Rous an answer, "The price of epic items varies depending on the options, but shouldn't armor have to be at least 1,800 gold and 600 gold gloves?"
"...What's?"
100 Gold is 120,000 won. In other words, if the Very Delicate Plate Armor and the Seemingly Plain Gauntlet were to be sold for 1,800 gold and 600 gold respectively, Rous would make 2.88 million won. Just seven days after starting work in the capsule room, a large sum of money entered his hands.
'No no. If I reduce the material cost and capsule room cost, the net profit is about 2 million won.’
Anyway, Rous is satisfied. Yes, do not get hung up on unique or legendary items. If he made two epic items a week, he could earn 8 million won in a month!
"I can pay off the debt immediately!"
He had a total debt of 10 million won. After obtaining the legendary class in Satisfy, it seemed like this debt of 10 million won was not too big, but it was a huge burden for him a few months ago. He also had to pay the interest on the loan, so he did not make a dent in paying it back. He was somehow able to organize the labor work, but now...
Anyhow! He could finally live a life without debt. Her fear of the employees from Mother's Heart is Happy will disappear.
“Kukukuku..”.
Live debt free! He imagined a life of dignity and could not help but laugh. Then he suddenly met Steng's eyes. Steng's skin turned blue after he watched Rous laugh.
...Rous had felt it in the past, but his smile was truly the worst.
The kids cry when they smile. People began to curse instantly as he smiled. People took money out of their pockets when he smiled. People bought him cigarettes when he smiled. Women are not happy when they smile.
'After I pay off my debt, I have to have plastic surgery ...'
He was very depressed about this as he set a minimum bid based on the price Steng told him.
[You have set the minimum bid price for the Very Fine Plate Armor at 1,800 gold. Is this true?]
"Yes." Yeah."
[You have set a minimum bid price for the Ordinary-looking Gauntlet at 600 gold. Is this true?]
"Yes." Yeah."
[Item has been successfully registered at auction.]
"How luxurious is the woman's room?"
As Rous was dumbfounded by the wealth that the nobility possessed, Steng came to him and spoke, “You can't pick up the ornaments there. I have been involved in many auctions while running errands for my teacher, and there are always people trying to steal things from the castle. They were found and punished ... Rous you have to be careful. ”
“Yes, I understand. Hey wait! Do you think I'm a thief? Anyone would feel bad when they heard it. ”
"M-I'm sorry," Steng quickly apologized and moved away from Rous. However, he kept glancing at Rous. He seems to suspect that Rous is about to steal something. Rous shows her laughter and is branded as a villain.
'Oh, that bastard. He has sharp eyes.
Rous had to give up on stealing. He only wanted to take one candlestick, but wanted to how else while he was watching. He sat down on the sofa in anticipation of the outcome that would appear in three hours and decided to take a nap.
... ***...
Irene is Winston's new woman and Earl Steim's only daughter. He currently only had the title of Baron, but he would become an Earl later on. In other words, he was the next Earl Steim's successor and the one who would become the peak figure in the north.
Therefore, his knights had a sense of burden and responsibility that no one else could imagine.
'We must be the best knight for Lady Irene.'
Knight Irene did not neglect the training of their mind and body, but there was a limit to body and talent. Therefore, they crave powerful equipment that will replace the less parts.
The auction held today in Winston was very disappointing.
“Nothing of interest.”
Winston had become a big city due to the breakthrough in the north. However, it was still lacking compared to Frontier. It's the same for the technicians. The accessories, clothes, and armor displayed at the auction were all inferior. Some technicians delivered good items, but it was not enough for the knights.
Two hours had passed since the auction began, but so far there had not been a single bidder for any item. In this disappointed atmosphere, the auctioneer smiled widely.
"You must pay attention to these things."
"Oh...!"
As the armor and gloves opened, the drowsy-looking knights burst out with excitement.
“How great!”
“It is difficult to find such armor at Border.”
The knights inspected the armor and gloves carefully before asking the auctioneer.
“Who is the blacksmith who made this? Is that the rumored Khan? ”
Khan is a rather famous blacksmith in the Frontier. The knights guessed that Khan was the one who made the armor and gloves, but the auctioneer gave an interesting answer, “Not really. It was made by Khan's successor. He is respected by the residents of Winston and is one of the three heroes.”
"hoh... The rumored blacksmith is right?"
"Yes." Yeah."
The knights smiled warmly.
“There are great people here in Winston. Someone with exemplary personality and excellent skills.he will be one of the talented people working for Irene someday.”.
“The value is much higher. I'll bid 2,000 gold.”
“You only gave 2,000 gold? Your eyes are awful! I will bid 2,500 gold! ”
“2.800!”
“Why are you trying to pick up something I saw first? I'll bid 3,000 gold, so everyone give up!”
Earl Steim is considered one of the richest nobles in the Eternal Kingdom. Hence, the family knights were paid a huge salary. The knights were filled with money, so the price of the armor and gloves made by Rous skyrocketed.
... ***...
“Master Rous. Mr. Rous.”
"Uhh... what? Is it time to go to the labor office?" Rous sleeps without knowing anything about the world and wakes up because someone shook him.
"Mr Rous, the auction is over."
"Well..."
Thas right. This place is not his home.
'This ... has been a week since I quit the labor job, but I'm still worried about having to leave ...'
He wanted to escape the trauma of labor work immediately, so he immediately left the waiting room with Steng. Then he headed to the lobby where the auctioneer was waiting. The auction manager confirmed the number of people and said.
"There are a total of six items purchased at this auction."
Crowd shaken.
“Only six? I myself installed seven items .. ”
“Not more than 100 items? But only six sold?”
This is not fun.
'What if my stuff doesn't sell? Am I setting the minimum bid too high? If I had known this, I would have put it up for a cheaper price.'
As Rous felt troubled, the auctioneer called out a list of items that had been sold.
