Chapter Seventy-Three: A Serendipitous Encounter
Passing through the market where rare birds and animals are bought and sold, it is the land of spiritual planting.
Here, there are strange flowers and plants from the countries of the south and the north of the world, as well as spiritual vegetables, spiritual fruits, and spiritual rice.
After all, Great Xia is the most prosperous country in the central continent of the Eastern Soil, and all the foreign objects brought by all the countries are unheard of and unseen. Even if Gongliang arrived in the Great Wilderness from the ancestral land of Yanbu, and then traveled from the Great Wilderness to the Eastern Land Countries to Great Xia, he was still amazed to see those things.
It's just that these people brought things from various countries to Great Xia, and the price has doubled again and again.
Not to mention those different spirit strains, just the spirit vegetables that Gongliang saw in front of him that looked like cabbage, but were called white siren, the price was really black-hearted, but the size of a palm, he dared to ask for ten spirit stones.
At this moment, Gongliang just wanted to greet him: "The cold card is good (ζniangε‘ε₯½: How is your mother?). β
If someone asks, how can you be so rude and scold people if you have such a high level?
He will definitely be very philosophical and say, this is not a swear word, it is just misunderstood, and the cold card is good, such as people who drink water and know that they know it, and you are a heavenly respecter.
But to be honest, people selling ten spirit stones naturally have ten spirit stones. Look at the leaves of the white siad, the bottom is like mutton fat white jade, and the top is like the best glass jadeite, it is simply a naturally generated handicraft, not a spiritual vegetable, how can it not be expensive?
Like this spiritual vegetable, the aura contained in it is easy to absorb and digest by the body, and there are no side effects. Unlike spirit stones, there is a limit to absorption, and unlike pills, eating too much will produce poison.
Gongliang didn't have many spirit stones in his hands now, so he didn't dare to spend them, so he asked, "Is there a seed then?"
The stall owner looked at him with disdain and said, "No." β
Come to think of it, how can someone like a profitable thing sell it with seeds, isn't that stupid?
Gongliang saw his contempt, his eyes narrowed slightly, he smiled coldly, and without saying anything, he directly bought ten white siads, and walked forward. This guy probably doesn't know, as long as the temperature is right, the cabbage will grow at the bottom, as long as it is served well, it can make the beheaded cabbage bloom and bear seeds. It's just that whether this white siad is the same as Chinese cabbage, you have to try it.
Walking forward for a while, Gongliang suddenly saw a familiar figure and couldn't help but walk over.
An old man with a slightly hunched back, a straight beard and a long beard walked forward with a black crooked cane as he looked at the things in the stall.
A chubby young man followed beside him, and before he could take a step, the fat couldn't help but tremble a few times.
After walking a few steps, the hunchbacked old man saw the bamboo shoots on the stall in front of him that were more than one meter long, dark yellow in color, and with fine hairs, and his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but turn his head and said: "Ji boy, this Xuanhuang caryophyllus looks good, I want it." β
"Old Turtle, you can't think we're acquaintances and make a fool of ourselves! β
"Why, I feel distressed when I eat a little of you, and I don't want to think about how you got to Daxia, if it weren't for the old turtle and me, you would still stay in the place where Dayu's bird doesn't, where would you have the current future and financial resources?"
When Elder Gu heard Ji Xiaozi's words, he blew his beard and glared.
Ji Xiaozi looked helpless, he had poured eight lifetimes of mold on this old turtle.
He was right, he relied on his old man to come to Great Xia and enter the Qingyang Academy to study. But he didn't want to think about it, if it weren't for him, how could his old man make a fortune, how could he marry three more wives. When he thought about it, he felt a pain in his eggs. Look at people, now he has married more than 80 turtle girls of different breeds, and he is still a single person, and there is no one who is even interested in him.
"Turtle Lao, can you ask your turtle grandson to lower the commission a little?"
Ji Xiaozi finally bought Xuanhuang stone bamboo shoots for Gui Lao, but then made another suggestion.
"That's your young business, and the old turtle doesn't mix. The old man said without replying.
When Ji Xiaozi heard his words, he suddenly felt that the balls hurt even more.
After the Ju clan moved back to the ancestral land of Great Xia, Turtle Lao didn't know whether it was for the sake of face or because of his physical strength, so he no longer drove him to the Great Wilderness to do business, but instead introduced his young and strong grandson, Gui Mengmeng.
This guy's name sounds quite kind, but in fact, he and his turtle grandfather are extremely stingy pit goods. In the past, the turtle took him to the Great Wilderness to do business, if he helped sell things, in addition to deducting the value of the goods themselves, he was four, and the turtle was six.
When I said it, I was full of tears.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that this turtle Mengmeng was even more pitiful than his grandfather, and he actually proposed to divide three sevens, he was three, and Gu Mengmeng was seven.
Can this still be fun?
At the moment, he refused.
But it is not easy to live in the capital, not to mention that his qualifications are not good, so he can only rely on spirit stones and pills to improve his skills. But these things need money to buy, and the money he has saved is quickly used up, so he has no choice but to follow Gui Mengmeng's suggestion, and divide it into three or seven, although there is still money to be made, but compared to when the turtle was old, the income is not only a little less.
Alas, life, it's really helpless!
I don't know what's going on, he suddenly remembered the desolate boy Gongliang he met in Caibei Beach, the first pot of gold in his life was earned from that young man, and his cooperation with him was simply perfect. That time was also the most profitable in his career as a traveling businessman, and he never had it since.
He, Ji Boy, is Ji Yuyong, who rode a turtle back then.
"Huh..."
What do you want, I don't know if it's an illusion, Ji Xiaozi suddenly saw Gongliang.
On his shoulders sat the little boy Migu he met that time, and the black, white and white panda round.
He thought he was dazzled, so he couldn't help rubbing his eyes, but the person was standing in front so clearly, so he tried to shout: "Gongliang." β
"What a coincidence. β
Gongliang said with a smile: "When I passed by Dayu Kingdom before, I went to Qingyang School Palace to ask, and I learned that you came to Daxia, but I didn't expect to meet you here." β
"Why did you come to Great Xia?" Ji Yuyong said in surprise.
"Come to the east to travel, by the way, see if you can worship the sect and practice. β
"You can definitely do it with your strength, but most of you desolate people enter to do miscellaneous labor, starting from scratch. β
"That's not necessarily, with his strength in the Mortal Realm, maybe he will be a beginner disciple as soon as he enters, and if he is lucky enough to be favored by others, it is not necessary to become a true legend directly. Elder Turtle interjected beside him.
"This is..."Gongliang looked at Ji Yuyong, and said in his heart: This old man can't be his grandfather!
"This is Turtle Lao. Ji Yuyong's introducer whispered in his ear: "It's the old turtle who took me last time, and he just changed his form and came out to swagger all day long, as if he was afraid that no one would know." Oops"
As soon as Ji Yuyong finished speaking, his head was suddenly knocked out, and when he turned his head, he saw the old turtle knocking him hard with a black cane.
couldn't help but say: "Elder Turtle, you and I don't have a deep hatred, don't be so ruthless!"
"Who told you to sneak around here and say bad things about the old turtle?" said the turtle with a glare.
Ji Yuyong was speechless for a moment.
