Chapter 72

About half a minute or so.

The brown-haired woman who had left brought over a middle-aged man dressed in a black formal style, wearing a pocket watch on his chest and a monocle, looking like an appraiser.

This middle-aged man only took one look at the bone chains in the package and became serious.

"This lord, please this way."

The middle-aged man spoke respectfully to Tang Zheng. He stretched out his palm to make an inviting gesture, pointing toward the other side of the counter.

Tang Zheng nodded lightly, picked up the package, and followed the middle-aged man toward the back.

With Tang Zheng's departure.

Quite a few adventurers in the hall immediately made an uproar; before it was just speculation, now it was completely proven that the two black chains were indeed the bone chains from an Evil Spirit Dog.

"That little Evil Spirit Dog following should have been born not long ago, right?"

"Once cultivated, it is a monster with a difficulty of level 45 when it grows up!"

"Cunning monsters like Evil Spirit Dogs are quite dangerous; even if you cultivate them, in all likelihood, they will bite the cultivator to death as soon as they have the strength to resist."

"That black-haired kid, daring to subdue such a monster, perhaps he is a monster summoner."

"I think he looks more like a beast tamer."

Various discussions rang out in the hall; clearly, discussing strong people was more interesting than discussing the things that happened in the Great Forest of Tob before.

There were also some adventurers in the crowd who remained silent, not knowing what they were thinking, but clearly, most people's first impression of the suddenly appearing Tang Zheng was that he was not someone to be trifled with.

If Tang Zheng, who had left at this moment, heard everyone's discussion, a satisfied look would definitely appear on his face.

What is a disguise?

A disguise is to try to make the opponent misjudge your intelligence and information; the existence of the little Evil Spirit Dog itself had a layer of deceptive behavior.

And peeling off this layer of deceptive disguise, the revealed intelligence would be even more convincing.

Inside a room decorated simply and very quietly.

Tang Zheng placed the package in his hand on the table, then sat on the sofa, waiting quietly for the middle-aged man's appraisal.

"Please enjoy, need to wait a moment."

The middle-aged man brought over a cup of black tea, placed it respectfully in front of Tang Zheng, and then said.

"Please go ahead." Tang Zheng nodded.

Only then did the middle-aged man sit on the opposite sofa, wearing a pair of clean white gloves, and picked up the bone chains gently to observe.

"Both the luster and hardness are quite excellent."

"These are the bone chains of an adult Evil Spirit Dog."

The middle-aged man gently stroked the bone chains with his palm, his eyes somewhat bright, then found the head of the bone chains, saw the position of the break, and his movements paused:

"The break is somewhat rough, but it's not a big problem, just spend some time polishing it."

Next.

The middle-aged man gently put down the chains, raised both hands to aim at the bone chains, and chanted softly: "Magic Detect!"

A faint blue magic light flashed across the middle-aged man's palm.

Hum—

'Discovered second-tier magic "Magic Detect", requires level 8-14, current conditions met.'

'Do you want to consume 1 skill point to learn?'

Seeing the information flashing on the attribute panel.

Tang Zheng paused, looked at the middle-aged man opposite with some surprise; he hadn't expected the other party to be a magic caster.

"No."

At the same time, he thought to himself.

"Magic Detect" is a relatively weak one among detection magic; it can only simply appraise the magic strength of items, or whether there are magic items containing magic on the opponent.

The practical significance is not great. A moment later.

The middle-aged man canceled the magic, and a look of pity appeared on his face.

"After an Evil Spirit Dog dies, a part of the magic contained in the bone chains on its body will dissipate, especially in the process of cutting off the bone chains, you will also lose a part of the magic."

"So special means are needed, but the bone chains of this guest are still preserved quite intact, but the price will be slightly lower."

The middle-aged man raised his head to look at Tang Zheng and explained respectfully and seriously.

"Can it be sold as soon as possible?"

Tang Zheng felt some pity in his heart upon hearing the other party's answer.

"Of course."

The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, "This kind of high-quality magic material can be made into magic weapons with just a little processing."

"If the guest is not in a hurry, we can find the buyer who needs these bone chains the most for the guest in three days, and sell them at the highest price."

=9+Shu_ba

"Of course, we will charge a 10% fee."

"If you want to sell them as soon as possible, we will also collect them directly, but the price will be lower, and the commission fee will naturally not be needed."

Both schemes have their pros and cons.

Tang Zheng thought for a short while, "How much money will you sell them for?"

"360 gold coins for one, 720 gold coins in total for the two bone chains." The middle-aged man straightened his back and spoke immediately.

Tang Zheng's eyes moved; this price actually exceeded his expectations.

But thinking of the value of magic items in this world, it was considered normal.

Seeing Tang Zheng agree.

A smile clearly appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and he got up to leave immediately, taking about two or three minutes.

When the middle-aged man returned again, there were two money bags in his hand, one of which was clearly somewhat bulging, while the other was much flatter.

"720 gold coins, since it's not convenient to carry, I actively applied for a platinum coin exchange for the guest."

The middle-aged man placed the two money bags on the table, pushed them in front of Tang Zheng, and said softly: "Here are 34 platinum coins, and here are 40 gold coins."

Platinum coins?

Tang Zheng frowned slightly upon hearing this name; he had only heard of them and had never seen them.

And 34 platinum coins, 40 gold coins, this exchange ratio also had a problem.

"Awoo-roar..." The little Evil Spirit Dog seemed to perceive Tang Zheng's emotional change, revealing sharp teeth and staring at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's face turned pale, and he hurriedly explained: "The exchange ratio of platinum coins is different from the Kingdom... to be precise, it is different from the exchange ratio of gold, silver, and copper coins of various countries."

"20 gold coins can only be exchanged for one platinum coin; in some small countries, the exchange ratio of platinum coins is even higher."

"And, platinum coins have higher priority in various countries; of course, if the guest wants gold coins, I will exchange them back for you immediately."

The middle-aged man's tone carried a trace of panic, his body leaned backward, and he looked at the Evil Spirit Dog somewhat fearfully, for fear that the other party would pounce over suddenly.

Platinum coins, huh.

Tang Zheng heard the middle-aged man's explanation, didn't speak immediately, but reached out and took out a platinum coin from the money bag.

The color looked similar to a silver coin, but the weight was clearly heavier than a gold coin, and it was also thicker.

Suddenly!

Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes, seeing that on the back of the platinum coin, what was carved was not the national emblem of the "Kingdom of Re-Estize", but the image of a dragon head.

Dragon!

Tang Zheng's gaze flickered.

The dragons in this world are all extraordinary existences.

Platinum coins?

Platinum Dragon Lord?
