My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 32: Turning Stone Into Gold

“It’s Arcana Mithril.”

Edward gasped.

Watson had mastered a magic that could fuse things together and change their quality. It was not a secret at their home, but he just did not expect Watson’s magic to be so powerful.

Although the name white jade had a good reputation, it was actually an Iron-tier mineral. Its texture was also very brittle, and it could not be compared to Arcana Mithril. Arcana Mithril was the metal that some powerful mages used to make magic staffs. It had a natural conductivity to magic elements, and the magic staffs made with it were several times more powerful than those of the same level. It could also speed up cultivation, making for an irresistible temptation.

Because of its special functions and the fact that it was difficult to extract, the mithril mines in the kingdom had been completely exploited many years ago. A few large mines were now controlled by the royal family, and outsiders could not touch them. That alone made it clear how precious that metal was.

If palm-sized Arcana Mithril could be sold for ten gold pieces, one could imagine the price of a piece the size of a door. It could be sold for hundreds of thousands of gold, and if a finished weapon was made, the price could be dozens of times higher. It was no surprise that Carter’s eyes were almost glued to it and he refused to move.

“If Uncle Carter likes it, it’s okay to give this metal to you.”Watson scratched his head.

Using the system, he could clearly see the effect of this piece of Arcana Mithril. His training speed was increased by 50% . It sounded good, but as long as he fused it, he could become stronger. He did not need to train at all. In his eyes, it was just a piece of iron with exceptional durability.

“Give it to me?”

Carter sucked in a breath of cold air. He almost rolled his eyes and fell to the ground. He said, “Reynolds, pinch me to see if I’m dreaming?”

Slap!

A hard slap landed on Carter’s face, making him spin a couple of times. Reynolds stared at the whole piece of Arcana Mithril with jealousy. What kind of good deed did Carter Do? How could he be so lucky? That was a whole piece of Arcana Mithril, it was worth several thousand gold coins, which was equivalent to half of his savings.

Being hit by Reynolds, Carter was not angry. Instead, he held the heavy Arcana Mithril in his hands and rubbed his chubby face on it. “The Arcana Mithril is mine, hehe.”

The more Reynolds looked at it, the angrier he got. He wanted to kick Carter’s butt again.

At this time, Watson looked at him. “Uncle Reynolds, if you want this Arcana Mithril, I can make one for you! But to fuse the Arcana Mithril, you need a white jade slab that was as big as before. Also, I have a condition.”

Hearing this, Reynolds’ heart was burning with passion. He hurriedly asked, “What condition?”

“Don’t be so hard on those guards for what happened.”

“Don’t worry. Leave this matter to me.” Reynolds waved his hand at the few guards who were standing to the side, “Quickly go. Get Someone to bring over another white jade slab. This time, be careful. If you do a good job, you won’t have to pay that two months’ fine! Even if Carter still wants to punish you, I will pay double the price to help you make up for it.”

“Yes, my Lord.”

The guards left happily. They didn’t know what Arcana Mithril was, but seeing the two merchants so excited, it was obviously a good thing. Plus, their wages did not have to be deducted, so they were even more grateful to Watson, this young master was not only kind-hearted but also capable. He would definitely have a bright future.

After arranging all that, Reynolds thought of something and looked at Edward with some embarrassment. “Edward, I’m sorry. These white jade slabs were meant for you to build a house. It’s all my fault...”

“It doesn’t matter. Two white jade slabs have already been broken. We can’t expand them anyway. We might as well take this opportunity to fuse the white jade slabs into Arcana Mithril! I remember buying sixteen white jade slabs from you this time. I’ll give you two of them as gifts. As for the remaining fourteen, if they can be fused into Arcana Mithril, please help me sell them in the Monte Town.”

Edward put his hand on Reynolds’ shoulder. He was indeed rich, but he was not a fool.

He had just saved up a few thousand gold coins at home. Each of that mithril was worth several thousand gold coins. If he sold them all, he would become a millionaire. As long as Watson’s magic did not lose its ability and could be done on repeat, it would not matter even if he melted the gold coins and used them instead of white jade to build a house.

...

“The stone tablet is here, please make way.”

“This is the Arcana Mithril. I heard that bringing a small piece with you can double the cultivation speed of a cultivator! If it is built into a house, the cultivation speed can be increased even more. It can even be used as a mode of cultivation when you lie down and sleep.”

More than ten guards surrounded the sixteen pieces of silver in front of the courtyard gate. They sized up the one-meter-wide metal blocks and secretly swallowed their saliva.

With the precedent of getting fired for stealing eggs, none of them dared to show their greed. Besides, Watson had helped them out of kindness earlier, so they respected the young master more than the two big businessmen. Whoever dared to steal these two pieces of ore plates would have to face the wrath.

“Edward, let’s talk about it. Can you give me a few more pieces of Arcane Mithril?”Carter was beside Edward, trying to persuade him.

“I’ll give you six pieces at most. The remaining ten pieces will be sold in our name.” Edward glanced at him. He usually made babies with Catherine at that time, so he was quite unhappy to be harassed by two fat guys at that moment.

“Okay, okay, okay. I don’t want too much. Give me four pieces and give Reynolds two pieces.” Carter laughed so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth. Reynolds’ angry voice came from the side, “Why would you want four pieces? Your Lucky Business Group doesn’t have as much money as Travelling Wing Business Group. You don’t seem at all afraid of overeating with those four pieces. Just give us the four dollars.”

Everyone knew that Arcana Mithril was a highly profitable metal. As long as they went back and refined it into something, they could earn back ten times their money. Such a good bargain could not possibly be given to Carter for free.

“I said four. First come, first served, understand?”

“Hehe, it’s useless to tell me this! My bottom line is three pieces per person. I’m asking you if you agree?”

“Will you fight with me if I don’t agree?”

“Those are your words!”

...

The two merchants grabbed each other’s collars, blowing their beards and glaring at each other. They were about to fight, but the guards beside them were not surprised. If they had the chance to get their hands on the Arcana Mithril, the guards would certainly be more excited than the merchant.

“Okay, okay. We can’t expand the house these days anyway! If you want to fight, do it somewhere else. I’ll go back and rest.” Edward waved his hand and was about to walk into the courtyard.

“Father, wait a minute.”

At this moment, Watson pulled his sleeve. Edward turned his head and saw Watson’s eyes twinkling. He said hesitantly, “Father, what if I say that I have a way to expand the house?”

“What? You have a way?”Edward’s face changed.

Watson had a way when the white jade broke and had since come up with another way to expand the house. Could Watson at least save his father some dignity after the man could not even think of anything?

Could Watson’s way be by fusing a large number of white jade slabs into Arcana Mithril, and then using the Arcana Mithril to build the house? Aside from the fact that the family could not be that extravagant, there were not that many white jade slabs to begin with.

“I do have a crude idea.”

Watson nodded and pointed at the big stones in the yard not far away from him, which had been used to test his combat aura earlier. He then started the fusion.

With a whoosh, the size of the big stones shrunk by ten times, and when they were combined, they turned into crystal clear ores that were similar to white jade stones.

“Dad, Look, you can use ordinary stones to fuse similar ores, and you can have as many as you want. As long as your two uncles’ men go around and collect more stones, we can start work very soon.”

Edward’s mouth twitched, but he did not say anything. It was not that he had not thought of such a simple reason, but he did not dare to think about it. Watson could use white jade because white jade was an Iron-tier treasure. It was far too exaggerated for Watson to turn ordinary stones into treasures.

Even the legendary great philosopher of that kingdom, who had spent his entire life researching ways to turn stone into gold, was only average at best.

Carter and Reynolds, who were fighting on the side, stopped fighting at this moment. They used their hands to smooth the creases on each other’s clothes.

According to Watson, if there was an inexhaustible supply of stones, there would be an endless supply of white jade stone slabs, and Arcana Mithril could also be produced continuously. Was there a need to hurry if they had plenty of opportunities to do such business in the future?
