Chapter 165: A Trip to Pearl City (Additional Chapter for Mr. Twilight's 10,000-Yuan Reward)
"It's like this." Su Yu explained politely: "I came to you this time to ask you for the architectural drawings of the [Temple of Heaven's Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests], hoping that you can sell the drawings to me."
"[Temple of Heaven's Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests]?" The dwarf master frowned even deeper: "This is the most proud treasure I have collected for many years. Even if the guardian god asks you to come, I can't."
"I can offer a high price!"
"It's not a matter of money"
"10 million psychic coins!"
"I said it's not a matter of money. Even if you offer 100 million, I won't give it to you easily." The dwarf master was unmoved and was not moved by the huge number of psychic coins.
"Then what do you want?" Su Yu asked patiently: "If you want to exchange items of equal value, I have the architectural drawings of the [Panda Terracotta Warriors] here."
"Oh? [Terracotta Warriors]?" The dwarf master's eyes lit up, and he was obviously interested.
"Yes, it's [Panda Terracotta Warriors]."
Su Yu opened his backpack and wanted to take out the drawings.
But after opening the backpack, he found that it was empty.
Su Yu then remembered that when he emptied the backpack to transport the sacrifices, he threw the blueprint of the Terracotta Warriors into the city hall.
The old dwarf touched his chin and pondered: "[Panda Terracotta Warriors] should be some novel building of the Panda Empire! If you pass some of my tests, I will exchange the blueprint with you."
"Ding, congratulations on triggering the epic hidden mission [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall], do you accept it?"
"Accept."
"Ding, the mission has been accepted, the epic hidden mission [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall (1/20)]."
"Mission requirements: Clear the single-player copy [Fairy Tale Kingdom lv28], eliminate the leaders [My Little Pony], [Shaun the Sheep], [Peppa Pig], [Little Bunny], and obtain [Brilliant Crystal of Wisdom (Epic)] X4."
After receiving the mission, Su Yu glanced at Mosanrik Iron Tongs. He didn't expect that this bearded dwarf uncle was quite childish!
"Tina, wait for me here for a while, I'll be back soon!" Su Yu looked at Tina beside him.
"Okay." Tina was watching the handmade artworks made by the master craftsman and nodded.
In the next four hours, Su Yu successfully completed the 20-ring hidden task issued by the dwarf master.
The content of this 20-ring task is very rich, including dungeon clearing, killing wild monsters, solving puzzles, finding people, collecting materials, etc. Some of them even tested the knowledge related to ancient architecture:
"What does 'dougong' mean?"
"What does 'jinxiangdoudi trough' mean?"
"What are the common column styles of large buildings in the Plantagenet Empire?"
Su Yu relied on his game skills and the "off-site help" of the relevant departments to barely pass these few rings of architectural knowledge tasks.
In the last ring of the task, Su Yu returned to the territory to get the blueprints of [Panda Terracotta Warriors] and brought them to Pearl City, and finally exchanged them for the blueprints of [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall].
[Temple of Heaven Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (Wonder)]
Building blueprint
Territory size required for building: Medium-sized village
Building materials required: 1000 units of wood, 1000 units of stone, 1000 units of gold
Building effect: By offering sacrifices, the territory will gain the [Good Weather] buff.
Note: I am appointed by heaven, and I will live forever.
The attributes of [Temple of Heaven Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests] overlap with [Yulong Statue], but the two buildings put together can have a superimposed effect.
A territory can only build one wonder at the intermediate village level, and one more can be built for each upgrade. After the scale is upgraded to [City], two more wonders can be built for each upgrade.
The first wonder in Su Yu's village is of course [Temple of Heaven Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests], and more wonders will be slowly built later.
The dwarf master took the [Panda Terracotta Warriors] blueprint curiously and unfolded it to take a look.
But after just a few glances, his face gradually became disappointed.
He looked up at Su Yu, his eyes full of regret: "Hey, kid, I think I've been cheated!"
"How was I cheated? The blueprint I gave you is not a fake one."
"I didn't say it's a fake blueprint, but this kind of blueprint doesn't have any architectural art elements, it's just some sculptures, which are of no use to me."
Mosanrik Iron Tongs spread the blueprint on the table, looking annoyed.
The old dwarf is obsessed with architectural craftsmanship, especially the architectural craftsmanship of the Eastern Panda Empire.
After he got the blueprint of the [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall], he was even more amazed and always regarded this blueprint as his most valuable collection.
The old dwarf didn't know what the [Panda Terracotta Warriors] were, and thought it contained complex architectural techniques like the [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall]. In order to broaden his horizons, he agreed to exchange blueprints with Su Yu.
But he never expected that the [Terracotta Warriors] blueprint was full of sculpture techniques.
He was not interested in sculpture techniques, so he was naturally very disappointed.
...
Su Yu had already put the blueprints of the [Temple of Heaven Prayer Hall] into his backpack. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "It's no use for you to regret it. The exchange has been completed."
"Alas!" The dwarf master sighed and regretted it very much.
"How about this!" Su Yu suddenly thought of something and rolled his eyes: "Since you are not interested in the [Panda Terracotta Warriors], why don't you sell the blueprints to me and I will pay you 10 million psychic coins."
Hearing Su Yu's offer, Mosanrik Iron Clamp nodded slightly and also had the idea of selling the blueprint.
But before selling, he must raise the price first: "Ten million? Let me tell you, this thing is worth more than ten million"
"You are right, this thing is not worth ten million." Su Yu continued to say along with his words: "Six million should be about the same, thank you for reminding me!"
As he said, Su Yu also showed him a simple smile.
"Six million?!" The old dwarf felt that he was about to have a heart attack.
He roared in his heart: "I said 'more than', not 'not worth', are you hard of hearing, young man? Do you want to piss off an old man like me to death?"
He clenched his fists and even wanted to punch Su Yu.
Su Yu pretended not to know his thoughts and continued: "Is six million too much? Then four million is fine. This should be the most realistic price of this blueprint. Uncle Dwarf, let's make a deal at four million!"
"Forget it." The old dwarf said with a dark face: "Eight million is the price."
Su Yu firmly held up five fingers: "Five million! This is my last bid. If you want to sell it, sell it. If not, Tina and I will leave immediately."
Old Dwarf: "."
In the end, Su Yu successfully bought the [Panda Terracotta Warriors] blueprint again at the price of five million psychic coins.
This trip to Pearl City has come to a temporary end.
