Although Tang San's expression was calm, his heart was extremely agitated. Due to the unique treasure-hunting characteristics of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which had been passed down for countless years, possessed inexhaustible wealth, truly worthy of being called as rich as a nation.
As one of the Upper Three Sects, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School even had two Titled Douluo under its command, meaning it had both financial resources and strength!
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, handed a red card to the silver-skirted girl beside him, and said, "Help me settle the bill!"
"Yes!" The silver-skirted girl took the card and slowly left the room.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Tang San and said, "Little brother Tang San, since this weapon is yours, can you teach me how to use it?"
Tang San nodded and said, "No problem!"
With Tang San's simple introduction, Ning Fengzhi quickly mastered the method of using Powder Shooting Shadow.
Ning Fengzhi seemed very satisfied with Powder Shooting Shadow, and smiled, "Little brother, may I be so bold as to ask, who crafted this weapon?"
Tang San smiled and said, "To be frank, School Master Ning, the person who crafted Powder Shooting Shadow is none other than myself!"
Ning Fengzhi was stunned and said in surprise, "Little brother truly keeps his talents hidden. May I ask which family little brother comes from? Can you tell me?"
Tang San shook his head and said, "I don't have a family; I'm just a student!"
"A student?" Ning Fengzhi looked puzzled and asked curiously, "Generally speaking, don't students of advanced Spirit Master academies graduate when they reach level thirty? Only a few academies extend the graduation level a bit!"
Tang San was startled; Ning Fengzhi's words made him very confused. He asked, "Then how did you discern my spirit power level? Can that also be seen with the naked eye?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and said, "One of my Spirit Ability happens to have the function of discerning a Spirit Master's spirit power. Looking at you, you are at most fifteen or sixteen years old, yet you are already a Spirit Elder. I truly can't imagine which family could raise such an outstanding disciple like you!"
A smile appeared on Tang San's face as he said, "I truly don't have a family. You spent two thousand gold coin to buy my Powder Shooting Shadow, so I can't let you lose out. I'll give you this as well!"
Saying that, Tang San took off the Silent Sleeve Dart from his left wrist and handed it over, briefly explaining how to use it. He then told Ning Fengzhi about the Flying God Claw on his right hand. Tang San's idea was very simple: to let the other party see his value!
Ning Fengzhi, with a surprised expression, fiddled with the Silent Sleeve Dart. He saw two small characters in the corner of the sleeve dart. Ning Fengzhi asked in confusion, "Tang Sect? Is it a Sect? Why have I never heard of it!"
Tang San smiled and said, "Tang Sect is my Sect. Currently, there is only me in Tang Sect!"
Ning Fengzhi suddenly understood, "So that's it! Little brother, I wonder if you can mass-produce this item? If so, I hope to purchase directly from you. Of course, the price definitely won't be as high as today, but it will certainly satisfy you!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San was overjoyed, but he immediately restrained his excited emotions and said with a surprised expression, "Oh? School Master Ning, which Hidden Weapons do you need to purchase?"
Ning Fengzhi nodded and said, "Listening to you, you have other Hidden Weapons?"
Tang San nodded and said, "Of course!"
Tang San waved his right hand, and several different Hidden Weapons appeared on the tea table in front of him. Tang San also began to explain them to Ning Fengzhi.
After a long while, seeing Ning Fengzhi had finished selecting his favorite Hidden Weapons, Tang San couldn't help but sigh with emotion. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School truly was wealthy. Not only did he package all the Hidden Weapons he displayed, but he also ordered five hundred sets of each type!
Tang San said, "School Master Ning, to be honest with you, the quantity of Hidden Weapons you need is a bit large. I'm afraid it won't be possible to complete them in the short term!"
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "No rush, take your time. How long will it take to complete, provided you guarantee the quality?"
Tang San pondered for a moment and said, "It will take one year!"
Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment and said, "One year isn't too long. What about the price?"
Tang San frowned slightly, thought for a long time, and then said, "School Master Ning, for the Hidden Weapons you've chosen, I'll charge you 4000 gold coin per set. What do you think?"
In the original work, Ning Fengzhi also purchased five hundred sets of Hidden Weapons from Tang San, which did not even include the Flying God Claw. Although it was said to be a purchase from Tang San, in reality, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School crafted them themselves using the blueprints provided by Tang San, and Tang San was only responsible for assembly. Not only that, but each set of Hidden Weapons cost Ning Fengzhi ten thousand gold coin!
The current Tang San did not propose many unequal terms like in the original work, and the Hidden Weapons in each set that Ning Fengzhi received were more complete than in the original work, costing only four thousand gold coin per set. The fundamental reason for this was that Tang San did not dare to ask for an exorbitant price.
Although the transaction price of Powder Shooting Shadow reached two thousand gold coin at this auction, Tang San understood that this was only for a single item auction.
For a large client like Ning Fengzhi, who needed to order five hundred sets at once, the price simply could not be as high as at an auction.
And at the moment, Tang San was in dire need of money. If each set sold for 4000 gold coin, his profit would reach tenfold, and the gold coin earned from this would be enough for him to purchase a Spirit Bone.
Ning Fengzhi, being the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, was a very shrewd person. He naturally knew the production cost of these Hidden Weapons, but in the original work, he was still willing to purchase Hidden Weapons from Tang San for ten thousand gold coin per set, entirely because he wanted to befriend Tang San.
The Tang San in the original work not only gave Ning Rongrong an Immortal Herb, which allowed Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but he also had a special identity: he was the son of Clear Sky Douluo.
Just these two points made Ning Fengzhi willing to bet on Tang San. One must know that the value of an Immortal Herb was equivalent to the value of an entire Sect.
And now, what did Tang San have?
In Ning Fengzhi's eyes, Tang San was nothing but a pure weapon merchant!
On the Douluo Continent, the purchasing power of gold coin was still very strong.
In the original work, the five million gold coin Tang San obtained from Ning Fengzhi by selling Hidden Weapons was enough to build a Douluo Tang Sect, which showed how valuable gold coin still was.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Tang San with some surprise upon hearing this. Was Tang San treating him like a fool?
Ning Fengzhi knew the cost of these Hidden Weapons all too well. In his opinion, Tang San had merely put in a little effort, yet Tang San quoted a tenfold price, which showed the extent of his greed.
Tang San smiled slightly, his expression very calm. Seeing Ning Fengzhi's expression, he knew his quoted price was too high!
