Chapter 543: The Only Pavilion
Casters are either rich or expensive. Since Cast Iron City is the place where casters gather in the circle, both house prices and land prices are expensive.
Duyi Pavilion just set aside a hundred acres of land on the most prosperous West Street in Cast Iron City and built a picturesque garden as a marketing venue, which shows its wealth and extraordinary strength.
What Xia Fei didn't expect was that such a well-known large store would be deserted. There were three rows of empty parking spaces outside the vermilion gate, and only two or three energy cars were parked. There were quite a few staff in gray uniforms. Thirty people stood side by side outside the door, respectful and smiling.
Yu Hua and Xia Fei approached the door, and six salesmen immediately followed them. Without saying much, they led Yu Hua and Xia Fei through the door. Two pretty young girls handed them hot towels. and tea, the posture was more like entering a luxury hotel. No one asked Xia Fei and Yu Hua what they wanted to buy. Everything seemed natural and without any pretense.
"What a good idea." Xia Fei said with a smile: "Businessmen usually talk about the four words of "feeling at home", but very few can actually achieve this. This unique pavilion is very experienced in entertaining guests. ”
Yu Hua nodded and agreed with Xia Fei's statement.
Entering the Duyi Pavilion, the decoration in the yard is even more impressive. Every tree, flower, grass, and brick is all exquisite. Even the pebbles laid on the path between the flowers are of the same size, with an error of no more than one millimeter.
The details are evident. The owner who opened this shop has long thought about human tastes. Such exquisite arrangements make people feel comfortable spending money. It seems that only by buying things here can you gain status.
After admiring the flowers all the way to the reception room, no one asked Yu Hua and Xia Fei what they wanted to buy. The staff helped Xia Fei and Yu Hua sit down on the large and soft plush fabric sofa. They also placed seven or eight kinds of fruits and pastries, as well as a pot. Good tea, the six people quickly retreated.
Yu Hua and Xia Fei were puzzled. This family didn't seem to be in a hurry to do business. How could a businessman leave his customers in the living room?
Within a minute, a young woman of seventeen or eighteen years old came in with two maids.
"When distinguished guests come to the door, they are never far away to greet them and give them a courtesy." The girl said with a smile.
The girl didn't show any pretense and sat down opposite Xia Fei and Yu Hua.
There is nothing to say about her appearance and grooming, especially her bearing. You can tell at a glance that this girl comes from a wealthy family. Otherwise, she would never have such grace in dealing with others.
Temperament is a very interesting thing, and not everyone can have it if they want to. Without rich accumulation and experience, Xiaojiabiyu will never be able to become a lady.
Seeing this girl, Xia Fei suddenly remembered Avril. When they first met, Avril was still young, and she was more naughty and unruly. As she grew up in the past few years, Avril became more and more temperamental, and now she is more temperamental. This girl is quite similar, because although they have an elegant temperament on the surface, they are both a bit naughty at heart, which can be easily discovered through their smiles and the occasional twinkle in their eyes.
"My little girl, Mu Qingping, is the shopkeeper of this unique pavilion. Who are you two?"
Xia Fei was slightly startled, this girl's surname is Mu? So she is from the Kuchiki family, one of the nine major families?
The Kuchiki clan has a good reputation. To be precise, they are from another circle higher than the Yu family, but I don’t know how this girl, a member of the Mu family, came here to start a business?
You must know that the status of businessmen in the legal world is not high. Yu Hua has been criticized a lot for doing business, let alone a girl from the Tangtang Mu family.
"I didn't expect the shopkeeper of Duyi Pavilion to be so young and beautiful. I dare to ask, since the girl's surname is Mu, is she from the Kuchiki clan?" Yu Hua asked.
Mu Qingping nodded: "Exactly, I wonder where you two are from."
Yu Hua said: "My surname is Yu, Yu Hua. This is the elite warrior of the clan, Xia Fei."
"Oh, it turns out it's the famous Yu family, the best at the art of space tearing."
"Miss Mu is overly praised."
Yu Hua's introduction was quite decent, but Xia Fei felt that Mu Qingping was a little contemptuous after hearing his name. In fact, she couldn't blame her. Generally speaking, major families have people with other surnames, but these people with other surnames do not have high status. , usually play an inconspicuous role in the family. In a family that relies on blood relations, it is always difficult to be recognized by a foreign surname. Xia Fei was regarded by Mu Qingping as a bodyguard or servant of the Yu family.
After a long pause, Yu Hua and Mu Qingping talked about unrelated topics for more than half an hour, and then they talked about purchasing legal weapons.
"To tell you the truth, 90% of the weapons in the Duyi Pavilion come from the Kuchiki Clan. Although there are some items sent by other forgers for consignment, the number is not large. The output of our Kuchiki Clan, regardless of function or appearance, does not count. Come on, you won’t be disappointed if you come here to buy something.” Mu Qingping said proudly.
Yu Hua nodded heavily, "The nine major families are the leaders in the circle, and their quality is of course impeccable. But this time, it's not me who wants to buy it, but this little brother Xia Fei. He is a new Law Warrior and is in need of a new one." Two good weapons for self-defense.”
Mu Qingping glanced at Xia Fei out of the corner of her eyes, looking a little disappointed. How much money could a new Law Warrior with a foreign surname have? If Xia Fei was really powerful, he wouldn't have to stay in other people's families.
Xia Fei frowned, Mu Qingping's attitude made him feel uncomfortable. Fortunately, she was pretty good at showing up, and she was still talking and laughing.
"You two, please follow me." Mu Qingping stood up and said.
After passing the living room, you go straight into the back garden. The huge garden covers an area of no less than fifty acres and is full of flowers and plants of all kinds. It feels like you are in a beautiful fairyland.
"This is the Baibao Garden. All the weapons of Duyi Pavilion are in this garden."
Xia Fei followed what Mu Qingping expected, and found out that there were transparent display cabinets among the flowers, and in the cabinets was a weapon or a set of weapons.
There are pavilions and deck chairs every 100 steps. When you are tired, you can rest on the spot, sip tea and enjoy flowers.
Putting the display cabinet in the garden, the layout of Duyi Pavilion is ingenious, turning the cold activity of selecting weapons into an elegant leisure, which is exactly the taste of those wealthy children and grandchildren.
Xia Fei's eyes lit up. Even the most beautiful girl with the weapon in front of him would not take another look. All his attention was focused on the display cabinets.
Yu Hua didn't plan to buy any weapons this time, so he chatted with Mu Qingping, and soon he and Xia Fei distanced themselves.
In Mu Qingping's opinion, Yu Hua, the Dharma King of the Yu family, was the real big customer, so she ignored Xia Fei.
"These are all good things! Look at this knife. It has the power to cut into pieces of space. It has a gorgeous appearance and a sharp blade. It is definitely top quality!" Guiying said excitedly beside Xia Fei.
Xia Fei frowned. Although the weapons were good, Xia Fei always felt that there was something lacking in them. It seemed that all the weapons were too luxurious and covered with decorations, which gave people an unreliable feeling.
In Xia Fei's mind, weapons had only one purpose, and that was to kill people.
Any decoration that has nothing to do with killing is redundant and completely unnecessary.
Mu Qingping had a smile on her face, but Xia Fei's frown was frightened by what she thought was the price tag, but she didn't know that Xia Fei didn't look at the price at all, but focused on looking for the weapon he wanted.
"Brother Xia Fei, this Kongsuo Yunxin is a very good piece of armor. It has the changeable defense power of the law of matter. It is the fourth level of Dharma Master, and the price is not expensive. It only costs you one hundred and twenty four pieces. Step crystal stone." Mu Qingping came up and introduced.
She was also kind-hearted. To be honest, Duyi Pavilion could no longer find such a cheap armor. Xia Fei could only become more and more disappointed as he continued to look at it. No matter how he looked at it, Xia Fei didn't look like a rich son or grandson, so Mu Qing Ping helped Xia Fei choose a battle armor with the best price/performance ratio.
Xia Fei didn't know Mu Qingping's kindness, so he asked directly: "What is the cloud-shaped armor on the shoulder blade used for?"
"It's decorative, don't you think it'd be nice to have this extra deck?"
Xia Fei frowned and said in confusion: "Can beauty be used as a defense?"
Mu Qingping had a black line on her head, "No."
"Then what is the use of this golden chain link on the waist? Is it for defense?"
A vein began to bulge on Mu Qingping's forehead, and she said with an unkind look, "No."
"The breast shield is carved into a water lily shape. Can it strengthen the defense?"
"cannot."
Mu Qingping started to feel a bit unbearable. Miss Mu has been hanging around in elegant and noble circles for so long. She has never seen such a blind guy like Xia Fei. It seems that in Xia Fei's eyes, he only pays attention to practicality and doesn't care whether the armor is beautiful or not. Whether the details are handled exquisitely.
"The armor must be worn on the body. I don't think anyone would like to dress up handsomely, so these decorations are also necessary." Mu Qingping retorted to Xia Fei lightly.
Xia Fei said calmly: "I don't object to your statement, but a battle armor is a battle armor. The first consideration can only be protection rather than beauty. The width of the shoulders is 0.7 centimeters longer, and the movement of the arms will cause unnecessary Obstacles, the strange shape of the cardioprotector will cause 19% of the heart to lack protection..."
Both Mu Qingping and Yu Hua were speechless. No one expected that Xia Fei would find a lot of faults with a seemingly extremely gorgeous armor, and he said it so eloquently that no one could refute it.
These details are covered up with gorgeousness, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Xia Fei's vicious eyes directly ignore those exquisite parts, and go straight to the essence through the phenomenon. The insight is amazing!
Mu Qingping was very unconvinced. The weapons produced by the dignified Kuchiki clan were called useless by the little law warrior Xia Fei. This was simply an insult!
"Then look at this one. This Miyu Silver Needle is the pinnacle of Dharma King-level armor, the most precious treasure of the One Pavilion!" Mu Qingping said, pointing to a silver half-length armor.
Yu Hua was suddenly startled, the top Dharma King armor! So this suit of armor has the defensive power of a level nine **** king! Definitely the best of the best!
Xia Fei sighed, "The person who designed this armor is probably a girl."
Mu Qingping stared at Xia Fei coldly, looking very dissatisfied, "What about girls? Don't look down on others!"
Xia Fei smiled and said: "I don't mean to look down on it. On the contrary, this set of armor is designed with precision and quality. It shows that a lot of thought was put into it. Generally, male designers are more careless and will not handle the details so delicately."
Mu Qingping looked proud, feeling that Xia Fei finally said something humane.
Unexpectedly, before Mu Qingping was satisfied enough, Xia Fei spoke again.
"It was originally a top-notch armor, but unfortunately the designer forgot one very important thing. The waist was designed to be so slender, but there was no opening and closing device. How many people in the world can wear it?"
The courtyard suddenly became extremely quiet, and no one noticed such a fatal flaw.
It's like the difference between models and ordinary people. Although the clothes on models are gorgeous, not everyone can wear them out because most people don't have the figure of a model.
No matter how good this suit of armor looks and how fine its texture is, it is undeniable that more than 80% of warriors would not be able to wear it even if they bought it because the requirements for their body shape are too stringent.
A suit of armor that most people can't wear cannot be called the best in any way.
Xia Fei suddenly realized that something was wrong. He was too involved and said some things that he shouldn't have said. Miss Mu Qingping's face turned green! ~~~~! ~!
