Volume 2 Truman Chapter 65 Three Ferries
Chu Zheng is about five days away from the location of the Chumen Ancestral Temple in Chufeng County, and there are still twenty-nine days before the Trumen Ancestral Ancestral Temple is guilty of dialectic. According to the logic of ordinary people, since Chu Zheng has decided to leave Chumen, there is no need to argue at the ancestral shrine, after all, the result of the debate is likely to be a cane death, and it is impossible for Chu Zheng to escape at that time.
But he also knows that if he doesn't go to the ancestral shrine, Truman will definitely splash a bunch of dirty water on him in the end. People's credit, people's prestige, and people's reputation are quite important in this world, especially if he still intends to build a force, so he has to pay attention to his reputation.
One more point. I didn't go to the ancestral shrine, if I made some achievements in the future, Truman could easily take it away from him, because he was still a member of Truman, and it was impossible for him to resist at that time, because this was the point of view that he agreed with, and no matter how strong he was, he could not be the enemy of the whole world. Those who fight the world alone are all nonsense, and your own soldiers are not human beings?
It's just that although Chu Zheng will definitely go to the Trumen Ancestral Temple, he doesn't have a good impression of Chumen, and he doesn't plan to stay there longer. Recall the map, the nearest Fang city is at Sandukou. I can do anything, but the magic dragon horse will not compromise. Moreover, the dragon foal is not completely tamed yet, and it cannot be wasted by starving it.
There are tributaries of the Tongtian River in Danwon County, and the gentlest place of the tributaries is located at the junction of Danwon County, Chufeng County and Baishui County, which is called Sandukou.
Sandukou Fang City is also the largest Fang City among the three counties. The forces of all parties that planned to attack from Lancang Pass replenished their elixirs and supplies here, making today's Sandu Port more prosperous than in the past.
There must be two items in the place where there is a fang market, one is the spirit rice, and the second is the flesh and blood of the demon beast, these are all items that can slowly increase the strength of the body on a daily basis.
At the door of the beast meat shop stood a middle-aged man in a khaki robe, who was saying impatiently at the moment: "There are no ten thousand catties of beast meat?
The butcher with a cross-faced face behind the board nodded and said at this moment: "This senior, it's not that he doesn't want to sell, it's really that there are too many people who have bought it in the past two days, and every one of them is eighteen thousand catties." Originally, the meat of demon beasts was scarce, and we usually sold 10,000 catties a month, but today we sold 30,000 catties a day, and only the last more than 4,000 catties. ”
"Then when will you be able to stock?" the middle-aged man looked displeased.
The butcher said with a sad face: "Senior, the purchase needs to be imported from the Xiyue tribe. Right now...... I'm afraid that the small shop will not exist if it is sold out today. If this battle is fought for a few years, not only will the small ones have no income, but I am afraid that they will not be able to go up for cultivation. The chef of the Xianwei Building next to him was dismissed this morning, and there is no material!" The middle-aged man spread his hands and looked helpless, but his face looked helpless, and his helpless expression looked hideous, and he was still holding a boning knife in his right hand.
"Alright, so be it. The middle-aged man waved his hand impatiently, pinched his left hand, and his body moved into the air and flew into the distance. This is a monk in the late stage of foundation building, and now he has to come out to buy it.
"Which family is this monk?" Chu Zheng stepped forward.
The butcher glanced at Chu Zheng, especially when he saw the demon dragon horse following Chu Zheng, and when he saw that he couldn't afford to provoke the lord, he said with a wry smile: "That's the monk of the Hu family in the thirty-sixth family, and he only came to buy it now." Well, I'm not talking about you. The butcher who reacted hurriedly hunched his waist.
"I'm kind of an afterthought. Chu Zheng shook his head indifferently. The flesh and blood of the demon beasts on the side of the Great Zhou can only be purchased from the Northwest Barbarian and the Xiyue Group, and now that the news of the war between the Great Zhou and the Xiyue Group has spread, the Northwest Barbarian Wilderness, which is already cold with the Xiyue Group, will naturally prohibit trading. I'm afraid that after a while, the Thirty-Sixth Family will also have no demon beast meat to eat. As for the four major valves, you think too much, and you won't be missing them at any time.
"Guest officer, as soon as you look at the demon dragon horse behind you, you know that you also want to buy demon beast flesh and blood, the small shop doesn't have it here, but there may be there, it's just up to the guest officer's ability. The Hu family doesn't have that ability. ”
Following the butcher's gaze, he saw a two-story shop, and the signboard of the shop was Shengtong Sandukou Store, and the corner of the signboard had the mark of Shengtong Chamber of Commerce.
"Okay, thank you. Chu Zheng turned around and walked towards the store.
The butcher opened his mouth wide and was stunned, and said in his heart that this kid was a second commodity who didn't know the height of the sky. The Hu family, one of the thirty-six families, can't do it, are you a young man?
The shop of the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce was empty, but the welcome guest still greeted him with a smile on his face, and bowed slightly and said, "What items do you need to buy?"
Chu Zheng looked at the empty shelves and said, "No matter what I buy, your answer must be no, right?"
Several guests next to him pursed their lips and chuckled, and the woman who received Chu Zheng also smiled: "What you said is the guest officer." Most of my Shengtong Chamber of Commerce has increased in price by 50%, but you can see it too. With a flip of his wrist, he smiled and pointed to the empty shelves behind him.
Chu Zheng nodded, "Then let's have 10,000 catties of spirit rice, 10,000 catties of demon beast flesh and blood, and 10,000 catties of demon beast blood." ”
With a snort, the women laughed, and the welcome who greeted Chu Zheng smiled: "Guest officer, you really know how to ...... it"
"Is this enough?" Chu Zheng handed the jade plate in his hand to the other party.
"Don't blame the guest officer!" The moment he received the jade card, the welcome guest's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said a thousand blessings, and stretched out his hand to signal, "Since the guest officer is a VIP of the Chamber of Commerce, it is naturally different, please go up to the second floor and be personally received by the shopkeeper." ”
Several greeters next to him also covered their mouths in surprise. The VIPs of the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce, they have only seen one person in the year since they came to the Chamber of Commerce, and he is still an alchemy master in the Jindan period. The young man in front of him was less than twenty years old.
Under the leadership of the welcome, Chu Zheng and the two came to the second floor.
The second floor was also empty, only an old man sat there drinking tea, and when he saw the two of them coming up, he only lowered his eyelids and lowered his eyelids again.
"Shopkeeper, this gentleman has a VIP jade card, and he wants to buy 10,000 catties of demon beast meat and 10,000 catties of demon beast blood, as well as 10,000 catties of spiritual rice. ”
When the guest said that Chu Zheng was a VIP, the shopkeeper glanced at Chu Zheng in surprise, quickly stood up, took the jade card and glanced at it, a flattering smile immediately appeared on his originally plain and indifferent face, and even lowered his height by one foot.
"Oh, Young Master Chu, I didn't expect you to come to the shop, it really makes the shop shine......"
"Do you know me?" Chu Zheng looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper immediately bowed and smiled: "There are only a hundred jade cards in the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce held by Gongzi Chu, but among these hundred, only Gongzi Chu has specially explained the matter, and it is not a once." ”
"Well, how is Qingyan lately?" Chu Zheng asked nonchalantly.
The shopkeeper immediately smiled and said, "The eldest lady originally wanted to come over in the next few days, but the affairs explained by Chu Gongzi have some eyebrows, so the eldest lady is now busy with Chu Gongzi." I've never seen the eldest lady so concerned about anything. ”
Chu Zheng nodded, and did not ask Liu Qingyan's origin. He knew that as long as he asked, he would definitely arouse the vigilance of the shopkeeper, and he couldn't ask anything. can be the shopkeeper of the market, which one is not cunning.
Chu Zheng did not regard others as fools and was arrogant, there were many people who came into contact with this world, although everyone had such and such problems, but none of them were simple.
"Young Master Chu, do you see where the items you need will be sent to you or?"
Chu Zheng said: "You just give it to me directly, I have a storage bag." ”
Although Liu Qingyan is an enemy, Chu Zheng really believes in this enemy. After all, the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce or the crown prince still expects him to fight with Truman.
"That's better, that's better. The shopkeeper took Chu Zheng directly to the back of the second floor, where there was a mezzanine, and there was a basement along the mezzanine.
Chu Zheng looked at the square basement with a diameter of ten zhang and the dazzling array of goods in the basement, and couldn't help but admire the strength of the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce. While other shops in Fang City are basically sold out, the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce still has a large amount of goods stored.
In the corner of the basement there was a formation, where many wooden barrels were piled up, each of which was marked with the words "One Hundred Pounds".
After the shopkeeper closed the formation, Chu Zheng waved his hand and put a hundred wooden basins into the storage bag. The blood of the demon beasts next to it was mostly leather bags and wooden barrels, Chu Zheng also collected a hundred, and then went to the side to collect 10,000 catties of spirit rice, and then asked, "How many spirit stones are these things." ”
The shopkeeper had already calculated it, and said without a little hesitation: "These items were only worth two thousand spirit stones ten days ago, but now they are worth three thousand spirit stones, maybe in a few days it will be four thousand spirit stones." However, since Gongzi Chu is a VIP and a person that the eldest lady cares about, Gongzi Chu will give two thousand spirit stones. ”
"Give you three thousand, what you do with it is your business. Chu Zheng waved his hand and took out three thousand spirit stones. He didn't want to owe favors because of a little spirit stone, and he needed to pay it back.
After the transaction was completed, Chu Zheng walked out of the store, at this time the Demon Dragon Pony was already waiting impatiently outside the store, Chu Zheng rode the Demon Dragon Pony and ran for half an hour, confirming that no one was following, and then came to the top of a mountain, put the demon beast meat and demon beast blood on the ground, and then sat under an ancient tree and began to cultivate.
This sitting is more than 20 days.
Chu Zheng slowly stood up and stretched his body, with a crunching sound. During this period of retreat, his physical strength increased again, and he had reached the level of an innate cultivator at the end of the flood famine, but he lacked the innate qi refining when he advanced to the innate level. The clones in the Divine Court are also more humane, and if they stand there without moving, they are no longer much different from himself.
Putting away the demon beast meat and demon beast blood that the demon dragon horse on the ground had not yet eaten, Chu Zheng turned over and rushed down the hill on his horse.
Returning to Sandukoufang City again, it was already deserted. There were still a few days left before the battle, and most of the people had already gathered at Lancang Pass and Yiling Pass.
When he came to the shop of the Shengtong Chamber of Commerce, there were originally four greeters, but now there is only one, and it is still the one who received him last time.
"Master Chu, my shopkeeper has been waiting upstairs for a long time. The welcome stretched out his hand and motioned for Chu Zheng to go upstairs.
Chu Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, your shopkeeper knows that I am still coming?"
"He didn't know you were coming, but I did. With a chuckle, a woman stepped down from the upper floor. The moon-white neon coat and feather coat, the eyes are charming and charming, and the face is covered with light veil, which is Liu Qingyan.
