Chapter 4: A Father's Desire

Xiaosang Village to Qili Town, walk for an hour, go out before dawn, arrive at the town, just in time for the shop to open. ~

Although the existence of the cultivator is widely known, it is still too far away from ordinary mortals, and in Qili Town, there is only one that collects blank rune paper, and it is Mo Shi'an who went to the town without going anywhere else, and went straight to the auspicious grocery store.

This auspicious grocery store is in Qili Town, very famous, is the largest grocery store in the town, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, pots and pans, daily necessities, can be bought here, the big shopkeeper is not often in the store, generally the second shopkeeper sits in the middle.

"Yo, that's a lot today!" The second shopkeeper only glanced at the thickness, and he probably had the bottom in his heart, there are only a few craftsmen who make rune paper in this Qili Town, he knows this Shi'an, and he has settled in Xiaosang Village for six or seven years.

Because half of the year is the midwinter snow, only less than five months of time is suitable for talismans, but also to plane the wind and rain days, at the end of the year, there are not many days to make talisman paper, the auspicious grocery store account of the spirit stone powder and other talisman materials are fixed, Shi An he knows, all of them are clear, his family has a "rich body" daughter, the most can not suppress the material, and he is the most diligent runner.

For fear that he would be mistaken, the second shopkeeper flipped through the account book, and it was clearly recorded that this Shi An did only take one material back, according to the usual number, there should only be sixty, but here, there are seventy.

"I was lucky enough to cut a few more. ~" Mo Shi'an's expression was very restrained, and he didn't dare to say much.

The second shopkeeper raised his eyes to look at him, knowing that he had always talked little, and then his eyes fell on the pile of rune paper, which seemed random, but in fact, every rune paper was touched by him.

There are no corners cuts, all of them are of the highest quality.

His eyes flashed, "At such an age as my brother, it is not easy to have such a skill, not bad, today's rune paper, according to the price of the past, I will raise another percent, and I will trade at this price in the future, what does Brother Shi think?" ”

Mo Shi'an showed a surprised expression on his face at the right time, and he only thanked him stupidly.

The second shopkeeper seemed to be very satisfied with his reaction, and asked again how many materials he was going to buy back, and as he expected, this time, Mo Shi'an asked for two.

This blank rune paper, in the cultivator's market, the price is basically the same, and it is all twenty pieces of a standard spirit stone.

This standard spirit stone is also a low-grade spirit stone, and there are medium-grade spirit stones, high-grade spirit stones and top-grade spirit stones, the amount of stored spiritual energy is different, and the value is not equal, between low and high spirit stones, the value of one hundred lower-grade spirit stones is equal to that of a medium-grade spirit stone, and one hundred medium-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a high-grade spirit stone...... And so on.

Because the spirit stone is indispensable and widely used in the practice of cultivators, it has become a currency among cultivators to measure the value of a qiē item.

The materials used in the talismans: spirit stone powder, miscanthus grass and green rain bamboo, are not easy to see in the world, like miscanthus grass and green rain bamboo originally grew in the wild, but after countless cultivators persevered in digging and transplanting, it is now difficult to find in the wild, only those few people set foot in the deep mountains and forests, there are some scattered wild species. ~

The spirit stone is hidden in the mountains, the raw ore of the spirit stone mined, the size is not irregular, in order to facilitate the measurement, people cut the spirit stone into the thickness of the finger, the width of the inch, the length of a finger six diamonds.

And the spirit stone powder is the inevitable residual product of cutting the spirit stone.

The skill of making rune paper is not a secret in the cultivation world, and the amount of each material is almost transparent, so this material is sold as an ingredient, but in the process of making talismans, some small increases and decreases depend on the individual, and the blank rune paper made by high skill and hand is naturally better, on the contrary, it is worse.

A standard spirit stone is twenty blank talismans, which is the market price, and it is in the Fang market, in this auspicious grocery store in Qili Town, the purchase price is only seventy taels.

The ranking is right, it is seventy taels of white silver, but it is not a spirit stone.

Mortals are not qualified to use spirit stones as currency.

Of course, if you are lucky and find one or two spirit stones or the like, it will be an overnight fortune!

A spirit stone can be exchanged for a hundred taels of silver, and in the world, it still has a lot of purchasing power.

Of course, this way of redeeming huàn is extremely disadvantageous, but who calls the difference between cultivators and mortals, it's good if you don't rob you in vain, and the only way to end up if you are not satisfied is a dead end.

Mo Shi'an's seventy blank talismans could have been sold for two hundred and forty-five taels, and the price of one percent was added, which was two hundred and sixty-nine taels of silver.

It seems that this rune paper can be sold for a lot of silver, but this one is sold and purchased, and there are less than seventy taels left, and because the price is still increased by one percent, according to the usual, there is only forty-five taels in his hands.

The second shopkeeper was generous and gave him a whole number, a full seventy taels.

Mo Shi sighed with peace of mind, if he was in the Fang Market, he could sell at least three standard spirit stones for these blank rune papers, and after removing the two spirit stones for the purchased materials, he would exchange them for huàn silver coins according to the unequal proportion, and there would be one hundred taels.

Putting away his thoughts, Mo Shi'an went out with seventy taels of "huge money" and walked left, and entered Baicaotang again.

After ten days of medicine and fifty taels of silver, Mo Shi'an was ruthless, bought a scalper, and went to fifteen taels with a supporting car, drove around the town in an ox cart, bought rice noodles, hugged a plain cloth, and carried a pot of wine, and happily returned home with a money bag that was about to be empty.

**********************************************************

The ox cart swayed all the way into Xiaosang Village, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the village.

In addition to the village chief's family, only the old Chen family raised an old cow, which was already a rare rich family in the village.

Seeing Shi An driving the ox cart back, twisting sour, raw vinegar, saying everything, all the same, the thick envy, jealousy and hatred in his eyes were very unified, straightforward, and very infiltrating.

"What are you buying this beast for!" Su Niang said angrily, she complained a little about Mo Shi'an's lavish spending, but she touched it and looked at the sturdy calf with a happy face.

"Although we don't have much land, but you are alone, it's too hard, with this beast, it will save effort, and then I think, take Xiaoyi and Xiaoyu to the town for a walk, the child is so old, and he hasn't been out yet......" Mo Shi'an's voice was hearty, overflowing with joy from the inside out, "In the future, let's buy dozens of acres of land, build two yards, and recruit two sons-in-law......"
