The Mutant God in American Comics.

Chapter 168 The First Customer

Five million taels is not a small amount.

The reward for an A-level mission is usually between 150,000 taels and 1,0 ... taels.

Only S-level missions can get rewards of more than one million taels.

Five million taels is equivalent to five S-level tasks.

Five million ryo worth of ninja tools?
After hearing Richard's words, Sasuke frowned.

Although he was not as poor as Naruto, he would still feel somewhat reluctant to spend five million taels to buy a ninja tool.

The money he has now is all the inheritance left by his parents.

To put it simply, based on his own words, he is currently unable to support himself by completing tasks.

After a few seconds of silence, Sasuke said to Richard, "Okay, I'll go there with the money tomorrow."

Although he didn't know what kind of ninja tool would cost five million taels to buy, he didn't think too much about it.

In other words, even if Richard sold him an ordinary kunai, he would accept it.

At worst, just consider it as tuition fee!

After hearing Sasuke's answer, Richard did not hesitate at all and immediately used the instant body movement technique to return home from above the river.

After taking a comfortable hot bath in the bathroom, he went to the bedroom in his bathrobe and went to sleep.

Noon the next day.

Richard opened his eyes, washed up, left home and walked towards Ichiraku Ramen.

Although he no longer needs to rely on food to provide energy for his body and only needs to bask in the sun, he will maintain normal eating habits whenever he has time.

Food certainly couldn't provide him with much energy right now, but eating was not just for filling the stomach.

Even if you are not hungry, simply enjoying delicious food can be a very pleasant experience.

Richard and Ayame arrived at Ichiraku Ramen with ease and ordered two bowls of pork bone char siu ramen.

Not long after, he finished his lunch today, paid the bill, left Ichiraku Ramen, and headed towards the newly opened ninja tool shop.

It was not until after one o'clock in the afternoon that he started his business for the day.

Although the ninja tool shop he opened was located in the downtown area, it was as deserted as possible compared to other nearby shops.

Konoha is indeed one of the five hidden villages, and it is also the most powerful hidden village in the Naruto world.

But there are still many ordinary people in Konoha.

Ordinary people would not be interested in ninja tool shops, so naturally fewer people would come to Richard's store than to other stores.

In addition, he did not do any publicity for the ninja tool shop, and it only opened yesterday, so most of the ninjas in the village did not know that a new ninja tool shop had opened here.

Even if the ninjas in the village knew about it, when they came into the store and saw the prices of the vibranium kunai, vibranium daggers, and vibranium samurai swords, they would think Richard was crazy.

The regular model of Vibranium Kunai costs three million taels.

The three-pronged vibranium kunai is priced at 3.5 million taels.

Vibranium dagger, priced at 6.5 million taels.

Vibranium samurai sword, priced at 10 million taels.

Although Richard only asked Sasuke to bring 5 million taels last night, this was a preferential price he gave to Sasuke. No one else would have such a preferential price.

Richard thought it would be the same as yesterday, with no customers the whole day.

But it turned out that he guessed wrong.

Less than half an hour after he opened the door, the Ninja Tool Shop welcomed its first customer since its opening.

When he saw the other person, he immediately frowned.

How could it be her?
The person who came to the store was none other than Mao Yue Xi Yan, whom he had just passed by yesterday.

She was dressed the same as yesterday, with no difference.

Although he was a little surprised by Uzuki Yugao's arrival, Richard still stopped developing the new meatballs, stood up, and said to Uzuki Yugao, "Welcome."

After hearing his words, Mao Yue Xi Yan looked at Richard calmly and said slowly: "Hello, I came to see the ninja tools."

"Okay, take a look."

Richard replied.

Mao Yue Xigao nodded and walked towards the ninja tool display cabinet.

When she came to the display cabinet and saw the neatly arranged vibranium samurai swords inside, or to be more precise, when she saw the price tags next to the samurai swords, she showed an expression of disbelief.

Ten million taels?
Is he serious?

Is the price written wrong?
Although Uzuki Yugao came to the Ninja Tool Shop to contact Richard in order to complete the mission of the Third Hokage, the price of the vibranium samurai sword still scared him.

Ten million taels!
For a samurai sword, this is undoubtedly a sky-high price.

One ryo in the Naruto world is equivalent to ten yen.

In other words, 10 million taels is equivalent to 660,000 US dollars.

Although ninjas have much greater earning power than ordinary people, spending so much money on a samurai sword is still a bit too exaggerated.

Richard was not surprised that Mao Yue Xi Yan showed a shocked expression.

People in this world have no idea what vibranium is, so they think the price of a vibranium samurai sword is too outrageous.

If they knew, they would rush to buy it even if it cost 100 million taels.

This is vibranium!
A vibranium samurai sword that is more than one meter long only costs sixty-six US dollars, which is extremely cheap.

After calming down her inner shock, Uzuki Yugao looked at the vibranium samurai sword next to her.

Then, she knew that Richard didn't write the price wrong, but was serious.

He is indeed suspicious!

Last night, she suddenly received a new task from the captain.

Although the captain did not tell her clearly why she had to monitor Richard, and she could not use conventional surveillance methods, she needed to have face-to-face contact with Richard and gain his trust in order to find out his real purpose for coming to the village.

Mao Yue Yugao has been a member of the Anbu for quite some time, but this is the first time she has encountered such a strange mission.

On the surface, the Anbu can do any mission.

But in fact, the most common task performed by the Anbu is killing.

Assassination tactics special forces!

This is the full name of Anbu.

Apart from anything else, just looking at the full name of Anbu, you can know what kind of force Anbu is.

Although Anbu ninjas usually perform tasks such as surveillance, intelligence gathering, and protecting important personnel, what they are best at is killing.

Mao Yuegao observed all the ninja tools on display and came to a conclusion.

Richard is definitely not a serious businessman.

Not to mention the ridiculously high prices of the goods.

The quantity and variety of goods are also seriously insufficient.

8 three-pronged vibranium kunai, 8 regular-style vibranium kunai, 2 vibranium daggers, and 2 vibranium samurai swords.

All together, there are only 20 ninja tools in the display cabinet.

For a ninja tool shop, even if it is on the verge of bankruptcy, there will not be so few ninja tools in the shop.

The first thing Richard did after arriving at the store was to collect the other 7 three-pronged vibranium kunai and 1 vibranium broken knife.

As for the vibranium samurai swords, he only put out two and kept one for himself. He did this not because there was anything wrong with the three-pronged vibranium kunai and vibranium short swords he took back, but to keep the number of ninja tools in the store at exactly 2.

In addition, before all 20 ninja tools are sold, he will not use vibranium to make new ones, nor will he sell those that have been taken back to the system space.

He planned to keep the ones that were taken back from the system space for his own use.

If she didn't have a mission to accomplish, Mao Yue Xi Yan would definitely leave without looking back.

But now, not only did she not leave, she turned to Richard who was sitting behind the counter and said, "Can I try it?"

After hearing what Mao Yue Xi Yan said, Richard replied: "Originally it's not allowed, but you are the first customer of our store, and you are a beautiful woman."

"Just take any one you want to try. By the way, these ninja tools are very sharp, be careful not to hurt yourself by mistake."

Although the kunai and samurai sword made of vibranium don't look special, the only difference is the color, which is silver-white.

But the sharpness of the vibranium kunai and vibranium katana is no weaker than the Kusanagi sword in Orochimaru's collection.

In other words, if we ignore other factors and only look at the sharpness, the vibranium kunai and vibranium katana are sharper than the Kusanagi sword.

"Okay, I'll pay attention."

Mao Yue Xi Yan replied.

That being said, she didn't think the vibranium sword in the display case would be that sharp.

Although she is not a jonin, she is a special jonin.

But her swordsmanship is no weaker than that of a jonin.

In other words, it was because her Konoha-style swordsmanship was superb enough that she was able to become a special jonin.

Opening the display cabinet, Mao Yue Xi Yan took out the vibranium samurai sword in front of her.

It is very light, less than half the weight of a regular samurai sword.

As soon as she got the vibranium samurai sword, Uzuki Yugao found that the weight of the vibranium samurai sword was much lighter than she expected.

Although the lighter the samurai sword, the easier it is to wield.

But if the weight is too light, it will also affect the power of chopping.

After feeling the weight of the vibranium samurai sword, Uzuki Yugao began to carefully observe the vibranium samurai sword in her hand.

Then, an expression of surprise appeared on her face again.

It's actually made in one piece?

She originally thought that the guard and handle of the vibranium samurai sword were separated from the blade like a normal samurai sword.

But she soon discovered that this was not the case.

Whether it is the blade or the handle, or the patterns on the handle, they are all formed in one go.

Is he really a knife maker?

Isn't this forging method too weird?
Mao Yue Xi Yan unconsciously turned her head to glance at Richard who was sitting behind the counter.

Richard noticed the gaze from Mao Yue Xi Yan, but he didn't take it to heart at all.

Although he did not use conventional forging methods, he was not worried at all that someone would be able to guess the manufacturing method he used from the vibranium katana and vibranium kunai.

Because strictly speaking, he did not forge the vibranium katana and vibranium kunai, but rather molded the melted vibranium into the katana and kunai.

Although the method is somewhat simple and crude, due to the characteristics of vibranium itself, this method will not affect the strength and sharpness of the vibranium samurai sword and vibranium kunai.

Mao Yue Xi Yan withdrew her gaze from Richard and swung the vibranium samurai sword in her hand.

Because of its lighter weight, the vibranium samurai sword is indeed much easier to wield than the samurai sword she is carrying now.

But she doubted whether a vibranium katana of this weight would have enough chopping power.

After thinking for a moment, she took out the samurai sword she carried with her and prepared to test it on the spot.

After seeing her actions, Richard's voice rang out immediately.

"I suggest you don't do that."

"If the samurai sword in your hand has any special commemorative significance, or is sold at a very high price, you will definitely regret it."

Richard reminded Mao Yue Xi Yan with a serious look on his face.

Although he had good intentions, unfortunately, his kind reminder was taken by Uzuki Yugao as a sign that he was afraid to let her test the vibranium sword.

Is it really just a showpiece?

This thought immediately flashed through Mao Yue Xi Yan's mind.

Although she didn't say anything, Richard saw what she was thinking and continued, "Although I'm not a famous swordsmith, the samurai swords I make are definitely top-notch."

"If you don't believe it, you can test it now."

"If my knife gets broken, you're not responsible."

After thinking for a few seconds, Mao Yue Xi Yan slowly said: "Okay!"

After saying that, she held the vibranium katana in her right hand and the katana she carried with her in her left hand.

Normally, to test whether a samurai sword is sharp, you don't need to use another samurai sword to chop it against another sword. You can just use the samurai sword to chop straw mats or bamboo.

But because Richard's shop did not have straw mats and bamboo for testing, she could only use two samurai swords to chop each other.

Under Richard's gaze, Mao Yue Xi Yan raised the two samurai swords in her hands.

Then, he used force with both hands at the same time, allowing the vibranium samurai sword and the samurai sword he carried with him to chop each other.

clang!
A crisp sound of metal collision suddenly rang out.

The next second, there was another clanging sound of metal falling to the ground.

As expected, the samurai sword that Mao Yuegao carried with her was cut into two pieces by the vibranium samurai sword.

The broken blade fell to the ground under the influence of gravity.

This……

After seeing that the samurai sword she carried with her was easily cut off by the vibranium samurai sword, Uzuki Yugao showed an expression of disbelief.

Although the samurai sword she carried with her was not a rare treasure, it was specially provided by the Anbu.

Compared with ordinary samurai swords, it is much sharper and stronger.

However, now, the samurai sword provided by the Anbu was easily cut off by the vibranium samurai sword like a fragile branch.

What he said was actually true?

Mao Yue Xi Yan looked at the half-broken katana in her hand and the vibranium katana without even a chip on the blade with an expression of disbelief.

After seeing with her own eyes how sharp the vibranium saber was, she finally understood why Richard would set the price of the vibranium saber at 10 million taels each.

Although the price of 10 million taels is indeed a bit scary, considering the sharpness and sturdiness of the vibranium samurai sword, 10 million taels is not an unacceptable price.

After taking a few deep breaths and calming herself down, Uzuki Yugao first put the broken samurai sword back into the scabbard.

Then, he came to Richard with a vibranium samurai sword and said to Richard, "Can it be cheaper?"

"Again, you are the first customer of this store, and you are a beautiful lady."

"If you really want it, I can give you a 20% discount."

Richard said seriously.

Although a 20% discount would still cost eight million taels, it was already a very sincere discount.

If even Mao Yue Xi Yan thinks it’s too expensive, then there’s nothing we can do.
