Chapter 33: Unspoken Rules
Zhu Lingwen said: "The production in each territory is strange, each with its own characteristics, and it is also very rich. For example, our Zhu family not only produces a lot of elixirs, but also produces bitter bamboo tea, some pills with the characteristics of the Zhu family. There are also some ores, some low-level magic weapons, some spirit valleys and the like. Some things are strategic materials, such as high-level elixirs, high-level magic weapons, and some precious elixirs. However, there is still a large part that is not important. For example, Linggu, for example, bitter bamboo tea. We've got to find a place to sell them, right? ”
"This kind of thing happens in every family. The families behind the elders in the sect also have such problems. So, there is this black market trading market. The price here is a little cheaper than the one purchased by the sect. Every year, as long as we complete the acquisition plan of the sect, the rest can be sold here. In this way, you can earn some spirit stones to provide for the needs of the family. ”
"Slowly, in order to get more spirit stones and more resources, each family not only began to sell these irrelevant things, but also piggybacked on some strategic resources. Because everybody does. In the past 10,000 years, the control of the five major sects over various families has also decreased a lot. Therefore, each family is becoming more and more emboldened, and the content of transactions at the trade fair has also increased. The sect also knows. ”
"However, the sect's spending power is limited. Because of the covenant of the five major sects, they can't increase the number of disciples at will, so they can't use so many materials, so they start to turn a blind eye, as long as these families supply enough for the needs of the sect, the rest can be at the disposal of these families. ”
"In this way, what everyone sells is not limited to whether it is a strategic material or not. Besides, there are contradictions between various sects, and there are also contradictions between various families. It often happens that several families join forces to eliminate which family. Of course, many of these are under the instruction of the sect. If there is a war, there will be casualties, there will be expenses, and resources such as prisoners of war will be generated. ”
In this way, in order to compensate for the cost of the war and to compensate for the casualties of his family, he had to sell these prisoners of war. Exchange for spirit stones. However, it is not permissible to buy and sell monks. They can only be used to buy and sell on the black market. Many families don't have captives, but monks are needed to open up the wasteland, for example, aren't our two families cultivating the wasteland now? This required slave monks, who naturally came to buy them on the black market. Therefore, in the past 10,000 years, the black market trade fair business has been getting better and better. The buying and selling of various companies at black market fairs is already becoming public. ”
Lu Yao understood. It seems that the future output of one's own territory can also be considered to be sold at the black market fair. Of course, that's for later. Now, Lu Yao's territory of the Yu family is still like a huge mouth, swallowing all kinds of materials hungrily.
The various constructions in the territory are only the beginning, and it is difficult to supply them to themselves. After it has developed to the point where it can be supplied to itself, it will be supplied to a part of the sect's share, and then there will be a surplus before it can be traded. It's going to take a long time. However, Lu Yao has always been a person who prepares for a rainy day. She doesn't follow the rules, she needs to develop quickly. So, she had another idea.
Lu Yao said, "Elder Lingwen, we've known each other for two or three years. The relationship has always been good. You're my sister's cousin again. I've always treated you like a sister. You also know what is going on in my realm. Although we are still far from having surplus resources and supply development, I also want to take precautions and get to know the relevant managers of the black market trade fair as soon as possible. In this way, the relationship will be fought first, and in the future, when it is needed, it will not be temporarily blinded. ”
Lu Yao's words like this are actually exactly what Zhu Lingwen needs. In fact, she has been in charge of part of the Bamboo family's foreign transactions. After all, a large part of the bamboo family's specialties are some unique elixirs, and this is the part under her jurisdiction. She was familiar with the stewards of the black market fair. Even the elders of the black market trade fair are familiar. Therefore, she herself has the ability to introduce Lu Yao to meet these people and get through such a relationship.
If she shared this resource with Lu Yao, Lu Yao would definitely be very grateful to her, then she could privately ask Lu Yao to refine a high-level spirit flower talisman for her relatives in the future. In this way, it will be of great benefit to herself. Besides, she didn't introduce this way to Lu Yao today. Lu Yao didn't know these ways after a few years? The development of the Yu family in the future will be known sooner or later. It's better to keep yourself as a favor.
Therefore, Zhu Lingwen said very happily: "Patriarch Lu, it is said that you are the head of the clan, and I am just the elder of the Zhu family." However, I am older than you, and Lingyu and you are sisters, so I will call you a sister in private. ”
"Sister, you have always been smart and far-sighted, and the Yu family will definitely be able to prosper under your leadership in the future. At that time, you will need the door to this black market fair. Therefore, your idea is very right, you should know it early, at least a familiar face. It will be easy to speak in the future. In this way, give me a day, tomorrow, I will invite those stewards to the banquet in our Zhu family's stronghold, and invite you and Elder Mei to attend at that time, how about it?" ”
Lu Yao really likes Zhu Lingwen's work efficiency too much. She hurriedly agreed.
Next, the more the two talked, the happier they became. Over there, Mei Lingyun and Zhu Lingxuan already had a lot of common language, so they naturally chatted very well.
Both sides were satisfied.
The next day, Lu Yao had another billion top-grade spirit stones in her hand, and she told Feng Qingliang. The wind was cool and also sighed at Lu Yao's ability. The contents of this day's auction are some genius earth treasures of refining. Before, Su Rongdu had already made a list. Therefore, according to the list, they not only took pictures of the things they needed to buy, but also some things outside the list, as long as they were useful and rare, they also bought them all by local tyrants.
Feng Qingliang has had a very good relationship with Su Rong in recent years. He smiled and said, "We have gained so much this time, Su Rong must be overjoyed." ”
Lu Yao said: "We have recently added more than eighty disciples, and in the future, we will add more, so there is a lot of demand for this low-level magic weapon. If the refining hall in the family can refine more, we can also spend less spirit stones, and we can also practice for our disciples. Anyway, we are not short of funds now, but we are also very rich. Just buy it boldly. ”
That night, Lu Yao and Mei Lingyun still went to the Zhu family's stronghold and participated in a banquet, at which Lu Yao met several high-level stewards of the black market fair, all of whom were monks in the Yudan period. They weren't too interested in a small family like Lu Yao.
However, Mei Lingyun's combat power was among the few among the disciples of Jiedan. Therefore, they actually talked to Lu Yao on Mei Lingyun's face. After all, the cultivation realm is still respected by strength.
Later, I heard that Lu Yao was a disciple of Zimu Zhenren and a genius in alchemy. Can refine the Heavenly Rank Pill. They have known this for a long time. I also thought about getting some Heavenly Rank Pills to be auctioned at the auction. However, I didn't know that it was refined by Lu Yao.
Therefore, they all became enthusiastic about Lu Yao. Lu Yao took the opportunity to give each person ten Heavenly Rank Nine Dew Pills. These ten people don't need these foundational drugs anymore. However, this is a high-priced item, and it is very helpful for the children of your own family. So, they happily accepted it. became more and more kind to Lu Yao, and even left contact information for each other, and asked Lu Yao to take the output in the territory to the trade fair as soon as possible to sell.
Everyone was very happy that this banquet had achieved its goal.
In the next three days, one day was an auction of various magic weapons, all of which were high-quality magic weapons, because this auction was held for various families, as well as those monks of the Yuan Infant Stage. Naturally, the specifications are relatively high. It is generally a ritual weapon. Of course, the top-grade magic weapon is the finale, and there is no top-grade magic weapon.
The prices of these magic weapons are relatively high. Lu Yao and the others spent a full 400 million top-grade spirit stones on this and bought a lot of good things.
Another day, it was selling all kinds of equipment. This is for each family. As a result, there were fewer monks attending, and most of them were representatives of various families. Buying a thing, although the quality is average, but the quantity is huge. Lu Yao also bought a lot, and directly spent 200 million top-grade spirit stones.
The last day was the most popular, and it was also for various families. This day is dedicated to the sale of slave monks. Lu Yao also spent 200 million top-grade spirit stones to buy 6,000 slave monks.
This is also because the level of these slave monks purchased by Lu Yao is not high, most of them are monks in the Qi cultivation period, and a few are monks in the foundation building period. Also, it's mostly male cultivators. There are very few nuns.
In fact, the most attractive thing for the monks in this slave auction is the auction of the nuns. The female slaves here are all trained by the black market fair, and they are all beautiful female cultivators. There are fewer cultivators, most of them are unusually beautiful demon clan female cultivators. Lu Yao saw a beautiful elf-like butterfly demon, and the demon rule was so gorgeous that it made people impulsive.
However, Lu Yao didn't like this very much, although their prices were high, Lu Yao really didn't buy any of them. Mei Lingyun was not even allowed to look at it. forced Mei Lingyun to leave early.
There's oppression there. These beautiful slave women were for the pleasure of the monks. The life of the monks is long. Some monks, after reaching the Dan period, find it difficult to make progress, so they can only stop practicing, and in order to pass the lonely time, many of them begin to choose to enjoy. This gave birth to the development of the slave girl industry. Although many monks would marry mortal women as concubines. However, the physical fitness of mortal women is too poor, and their youth and beauty are too short. None of them are as good as the nuns.
This made female slave concubines prevalent in the cultivation realm. Although Lu Yao hates this very much, she can't change the overall situation alone. can only supervise the people around him, at least Mei Lingyun and Lu Yuan are not allowed to have some messy things. (To be continued.) )
