After hearing the number, Manager Chu also frowned.
"Mother, is there a problem?" Chu Yu saw her mother's dilemma.
"Yu 'er, to tell you the truth, mother doesn't have that much money on hand. As for the money in the Treasure Boat, the eldest young master has set a rule that if you want to advance more than a hundred thousand gold coins, you have to go through him first. "Manager Chu sighed.
Ever since Chu Yu went to the Heaven's Wings Arena, the eldest young master began to ostracize her. Manager Chu worked hard on the Treasure Boat without complaint, but the eldest young master was always on guard against her.
"Mother only has six hundred thousand gold coins on hand at most. As for the remaining one million gold coins, there is nothing I can do." Manager Chu felt bitter. She had worked hard for the City Lord's Mansion all her life, but she ended up being ostracized by the mother and daughter.
Chu Yu herself only had about five hundred thousand gold coins on hand. The remaining six hundred thousand gold coins couldn't be solved in a short time.
When Chu Yu and Manager Chu were discussing this matter, they didn't avoid it. Yun Sheng and Donghuang Linger heard it clearly from the side.
"Then, is there any other way to raise money?" Donghuang Linger was also anxious from the side. She wished that she could suddenly conjure up a million gold coins to solve Chu Yu's urgent need.
"I'm afraid it won't work. The accounts of the Treasure Boat are all handled by the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress. I don't want any weakness of mother to fall into the hands of that couple. "Chu Yu sneered.
Just as they were talking, they heard a series of questions from outside.
Steward Chu walked out. After a series of hushed discussions, Steward Chu walked in.
This time, there was a mantis blade in her hand. The blade had already been broken into two.
Manager Chu was vexed because of Chu Yu's fundraising matter. After returning, she put the blade aside.
When Chu Yu saw the blade, she asked with concern, "Mother, did something happen?"
"The people of the Tool Pavilion made a mess. When they were refining, they broke a high-grade mantis blade." Manager Chu rubbed her forehead, a trace of annoyance appearing on her face.
"What? The Treasure Boat is refining for people? "Yun Sheng, who had been listening to Chu Yu and her mother's conversation, interjected.
Chu Yu nodded.
"There's a Weapon Building on the Treasure Boat, and there's a Weapon Refinement Grandmaster. In addition to refining all kinds of weapons and Dharma Artifacts, they also provide refining services."
On the continent, alchemists and armament masters were the same, both were highly respected existences.
However, compared to alchemists, there were even fewer refiners. This was because refining a weapon or a magic tool required a lot more time and energy than refining an alchemist.
Therefore, many magicians who were qualified to refine magic tools would choose to become alchemists.
As for weapon refinement, it was also divided into two types. One was basic refinement, and the other was refinement.
Primary Refining was the most basic refining of all kinds of weapons.
Refining was only for mid-level magic tools and weapons. After a warrior or magician's cultivation increased, they could increase the grade of their magic tools and weapons by adding materials, soul stones, and other methods.
This was especially true for martial artists. Because they were used to using a weapon, they would use more refining methods to improve their weapon's attributes.
However, the difficulty of refining was much more difficult than the initial forging. As long as the ratio of the materials was not right or the heat was not right, it was very likely that the initial forging would be destroyed.
Therefore, there were very few weapon or magic tool stores that could provide refining services, and correspondingly, there were even fewer Weapon Refinement Grandmasters.
The Treasure Boat was the largest concentration of treasures in the city, and due to the needs of its daily work, it also employed many Weapon Refinement Grandmasters to help some warriors and magicians improve their weapons and Dharma Artifacts.
These Weapon Refinement Grandmasters would also refine old magic tools and weapons that had been pawned or mortgaged.
For the Treasure Boat, this was not a small amount of income.
Hearing Chu Yu's explanation, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Linger also understood.
This broken saber belonged to a Warrior Saint of the Skywings division of the Skywings Arena.
In a few days, he would have an important competition, which would be the monthly competition in the Skywings division. Thus, he had sought out the Treasure Boat, not hesitating to use the high reward of three hundred thousand gold coins to have the Treasure Boat help him refine the Purple Gold.
"Purple Gold Refinement?" Yun Sheng's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she could not help but glance at the magic scepter in her hand.
"Yes, it's the Purple Gold Refinement that many Weapon Refinement Grandmasters on the continent have a headache over." Steward Chu knew a lot more about Purple Gold Refinement than Chu Yu, so she simply continued the conversation and explained it.
Purple Gold was an extremely rare metal on the continent, and just a bit of it was worth a lot.
However, it also had a wide range of uses. Aside from being able to refine Purple Gold coins, it could also be used for refining.
Whether it was Dharma Artifacts or weapons, they could all be refined with Purple Gold.
If a Dharma Artifact was fused with Purple Gold, its magic sensitivity would be higher and it would also be tougher.
As for weapons, once they were fused with Purple Gold, they could be said to be indestructible.
Generally speaking, a mid-level Dharma Artifact that was fused with a portion of Purple Gold would increase its grade by at least one grade.
That Warrior Saint-level contestant had also spent a lot of money for this monthly competition. He took out a piece of Purple Gold that was worth no less than 200,000 gold coins, and together with the cost of refining, he allowed the treasure boat to undergo this round of refinement.
500,000 gold coins per refinement … Yun Sheng and Donghuang Linger both secretly swallowed their saliva.
As expected of Skywings City, even cabbages could be sold for the price of abalone.
In the entire continent, Yun Sheng was probably the only one who would compare Purple Gold to cabbages.
After all, her Beast Language Ring contained a piece of nouveau riche gold that was made entirely out of pure purple gold.
Yun Sheng secretly thought that Night Fox had really cheated her earlier. Luckily, she had also used quite a bit of Night Fox's Purple Gold earlier, so she had barely recovered a bit of the cost price.
If Steward Chu and the others knew what was going on in Yun Sheng's mind, they would probably vomit a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Now that the refinement of this saber has failed, won't the treasure boat have to pay 500,000 gold coins?" Donghuang Linger picked up the Mantis Saber. There was already a very obvious crack on the saber's body.
With a crack, it was equivalent to the entire saber being destroyed.
With Donghuang Linger's eyesight, she could also tell that this saber was a high-grade weapon. If it were placed on the market, its price would not be less than 100,000 gold coins.
However, the value of a saber, especially for the owner of the saber, could not be used to refine it.
That Warrior Saint-level had used this saber for no less than 20 years. Now that the saber was destroyed, he had to find a new weapon in a hurry, which would definitely affect the later part of the competition.
This refinement could be considered a complete failure.
"It's not just 500,000 gold coins. I'm afraid that he might not even be willing to pay 1,000,000 gold coins. The refinement has failed, the Purple Gold is gone, and the saber is also greatly damaged. However, the most important thing is that it can't be refined a second time. This saber is destroyed. "Steward Chu shook his head.
