219: Refined Items: Rare Ore

"Destination reached. Passengers, please disembark."

Wang Yi and Gu Mingzhu's travel time was up. They slowly opened their eyes, and after adjusting to their surroundings, they suddenly noticed that Tong Changshan had appeared in the carriage.

Gu Mingzhu was startled because she had never seen this person before: "Ah!"

"Shh, keep your voice down. He's also a regular passenger on this train," Wang Yi whispered.

Wang Yi wasn't surprised at all that Tong Changshan would be riding in the VIP carriage; he had already guessed that Tong Changshan would be there when he was speculating earlier.

Gu Mingzhu nodded, indicating she understood. She pointed to the microwave next to the table and said, "I brought some rare ores today. Want to try them out?"

Wang Yi blinked and said, "What a coincidence, I brought some too."

He had also planned to try out how to use that microwave today.

While the two of them were here, planning to take out rare ores to try the microwave, Ge Yunying and Feng Zhi, walking at the back of the train, encountered an acquaintance.

"Little Brother Xiao Shen, you guys are here too." The two groups were quite familiar with each other, so Feng Zhi greeted them when he saw them approaching.

"Yes, are Wang Yi and the others inside?" Xiao Shen knew immediately upon seeing them that Wang Yi and Gu Mingzhu must have also arrived.

"Yes, but by my estimate, they should be getting off soon," Feng Zhi said.

"Let's go, we'll go up and see," Xiao Shen said to Liu Ling'er and the other person.

"Let's go take a look too, since we're not cultivating anymore," Feng Zhi suggested to Ge Yunying.

Ge Yunying thought about it. They had indeed come this time to see what that strange microwave was for, so she nodded and said, "Alright."

"Welcome aboard this train. Please sit down and hold on tight."

"To board, please purchase a ticket. Different carriages have different fares. This carriage is the VIP carriage, and the fare is two thousand low-grade spirit stones."

Xiao Shen and the two others came up not to ride in the VIP carriage, so they didn't respond.

There was even less need to mention Feng Zhi and Ge Yunying; they had already ridden the train today.

Lin Feng didn't urge them. Anyway, if they wanted to cultivate, they had to buy a ticket first.

"You're here!" Wang Yi quickly waved when he saw Xiao Shen. "Quickly tell me in detail how you guys tested it yesterday. We all brought rare ores today, and this stuff is expensive, so we can't waste it."

Even Wang Yi found it expensive, which showed just how high the price of rare ores was.

"You found rare ores?" Xiao Shen's eyes widened. He had asked Old He for a long time yesterday but still couldn't buy any.

The main reason was that this stuff was not only expensive but also rare.

As soon as it appeared, it was snatched up, as fast as they all rushed to buy train exclusive water every morning. Xiao Shen had no chance to get involved.

"Yes, I brought some," Gu Mingzhu said, taking out a few catties of rare ores she had brought from the City Lord's Mansion.

Seeing these shiny ores, Liu Ling'er couldn't help but exclaim, "So this is rare ore, it's so beautiful."

Although the Liu family used to be one of the Four Great Families, families like theirs did not have dedicated Weapon Refiners, nor did they collect rare ores. The reason was simple: they hadn't reached that level yet.

Even the wealthy City Lord's Mansion could only produce a mere few catties of rare ores for Gu Mingzhu to play with.

This was only because it was Gu Mingzhu; if it were anyone else, let alone a few catties, even a single tael, the City Lord would not give it to them.

"If you like it, you can take some," Gu Mingzhu said generously.

Liu Ling'er was very surprised, as the two of them weren't that familiar yet: "Really?"

"Of course it's real. Which kind do you like? I'll give you a few taels," Gu Mingzhu said, about to make a move.

"Ah, wait a moment, I'll exchange it with spirit stones. I just want one tael, um... how many spirit stones can buy it?"

Liu Ling'er quickly went to get spirit stones, but she was embarrassed because she wasn't clear about the market price of rare ores.

"Oh, don't give me spirit stones, I have plenty of spirit stones."

Gu Mingzhu was now fully committed to the "spirit stones are friends" theory proposed by her City Lord senior brother. So, without another word, she separated one tael of rare ore and put it into Liu Ling'er's storage bag.

"But this..." Liu Ling'er felt a bit embarrassed. Although she didn't know the exact price, even if she thought about it with her toes, she knew this stuff couldn't be cheap.

"Just take it," Gu Mingzhu said without question. "Let's hurry up and try out what this microwave does first."

"Okay, thank you..." Liu Ling'er felt her favorability towards Gu Mingzhu rapidly increasing. This girl was too wonderful, not only beautiful but also so kind.

No wonder everyone said she was the City Lord's little princess!

"Yesterday, I opened the microwave like this, and then..." Xiao Shen was over there discussing with Wang Yi how to use the microwave.

"I wonder if directly putting in rare ores will work?" Zheng Jinfeng subconsciously felt a bit pained about those rare ores.

When they tested the microwave yesterday, they threw in stones, and even if it cost one low-grade spirit stone, they didn't feel bad at all. But if rare ores were put in and got ruined, wouldn't they be heartbroken?

"Let's try it."

Wang Yi had already thought about it before coming. Everything on the green train was good stuff. No matter what the microwave's function was, since he brought rare ores, there should be some kind of reaction.

"And mine, put some in too," Gu Mingzhu said, generously taking out some rare ores and putting them into the microwave.

They both put some in, and then the microwave automatically displayed subtitles different from usual:

[Refining Item: Rare Ore (four types in total)

Refining Time: One minute

Required Cost: Three thousand low-grade spirit stones]

[Please place spirit stones in the space in the upper left corner.]

The drawer slowly opened, revealing an empty space.

Everyone: !!!

"It actually requires so many spirit stones!"

Three thousand low-grade spirit stones could buy a New Advancement Pill. Wang Yi immediately began to consider which of the two was more cost-effective.

"What should we do, should we spend this money?" Feng Zhi felt anxious for Wang Yi.

That was three thousand low-grade spirit stones!!

"Since we're already here, we can't go back empty-handed. If you're worried about the money, let me do it," Gu Mingzhu said grandly.

Besides cultivating, she came to the green train today specifically for this microwave.

She had to figure out what it was for today, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Wang Yi shook his head and said, "You're right. The rare ores have already been put in, so there's no point in regretting it now. Let's do it!"

He took out thirty mid-grade spirit stones and placed them in the drawer. Everyone watched intently as the drawer automatically retracted, and then the microwave began to operate.
