Chapter 340: Big Purchase!
In the bazaar, there are many vendors selling medicinal herbs. There are seven or eight kinds of elixirs that Li Ba knows, and three of them can help improve his strength, namely Zhu Guo, Chicken Blood Vine, and Bergamot Fruit.
These three elixirs became the targets of his main acquisitions. As for the other elixirs, although they have their own miraculous effects, he doesn't need them yet.
Vermilion is the most common and can be found in almost every medicine stand. Chicken blood vine is more precious, and the medicinal effect is stronger than that of Zhu Guo. The best quality is bergamot, the medicinal effect is comparable to that of green radish fruit, taking one is worth absorbing forty or fifty third-level crystal nuclei.
Therefore, bergamot is the most expensive and the rarest.
However, the price is more expensive than the other two elixirs. In Li Ba's view, it is still rotten and cheap. Take Zhu Guo as an example, the medicine stall sells a white jade coin that is only half a piece. There are also discounts for buying in large quantities. Chicken blood vines are weighed according to catties, and only one catty is sold for a green jade coin. Bergamot is more expensive, and only sells for ten green jade coins per piece.
For Li Ba, who is worth tens of thousands of white jade coins, this little money is nothing at all.
Although the medicinal effect of Zhu Guo is weak, it has a miraculous effect, it can be taken in large quantities, and the human body will not develop resistance. Therefore, there are as many as Li Ba wants. He bought ten catties of chicken blood vine, and I believe it should be enough. As for bergamot, he wandered around a lot of medicine stalls, and after buying 12 pieces, he stopped buying them.
If these two elixirs are taken too much, the human body will become resistant to the drugs, and the effect of the medicine will be negligible. Therefore, according to past experience, Li Ba acquired a certain amount and stopped immediately.
Every two hours. Li Ba had already purchased a whole basket of Zhu Guo, counting the chicken blood vine and bergamot, it cost him less than two purple jade coins.
"Miao Village's money...... It's worth a lot of money! ”
Li Ba couldn't help but sigh. At the same time, his face was full of joy. This basket of elixir is in hand, and it assists in cultivating the Great Yan Technique. It is absolutely no problem for the natal talisman to break through to the realm of the fifth grade. If you don't do it, you can also hit the bottleneck of the six products.
The higher the realm of the natal talisman. The stronger your physique, the higher your physical combat power will be.
Thinking of this, Li Ba was excited. In Baoshan, the elixir is everywhere, and he doesn't need to be in a hurry to buy it desperately. The coming day is long, and the elixir that has been purchased is enough to cultivate for a few days.
Looking at the time, there was still an hour before the agreed knife pickup. Li Ba began to wander around the bazaar to see if he could find suitable materials for making urns.
There are many kinds of materials, such as jade, spirit wood, and mutant animal bones. The difference is that jade is like blank rune paper. A spirit urn capable of carving any attribute. The other two are different, under normal circumstances, spirit wood can only make wood attribute talismans. The mutant beast bone depends on the ability attributes possessed by the mutant beast, and the corresponding spirit urn is depicted.
For example, if a mutant beast that awakens the ability of fire can only depict fire talismans with animal bones, it will not work to make talismans with other attributes. Moreover, the quality of the talisman depends on the evolutionary strength of this mutant beast. The more powerful the mutant beast. The higher the quality of the spirit urn carved by its animal bones. The quality of the urn directly affects the frequency and frequency of use.
Lingmu is a mutated tree, and it is everywhere in the mountainous areas near Miao Village. This material is easy to find. However, if you want to use the power of the five elements. Spiritual urns of various attributes have to be made.
Therefore, jade and mutant beast bones are indispensable.
Miao Village made a circulating currency from jade, according to Li Ba's estimate. Jade is certainly considered a strategic commodity, and is rarely circulated in the market. And so it is. Although there are some shops selling jade ornaments in the bazaar, they are all small ornaments. It is not suitable for depicting the urn at all.
Similarly, jade coins are too small to be made. Therefore, jade materials are difficult to buy, and only some mutant beast bones can be collected.
The beast bones suitable for carving the spirit urn must reach the second level, the ability to awaken. There are a lot of stalls selling mutant beast meat in the market, but they are all low-level mutant beasts, and the beast bones are not suitable at all.
Li Ba walked around for a long time, and only then did he find materials suitable for portraying the spirit urn in a butcher shop opened by the Miao people. It was a mutated bobcat, with a body larger than a leopard, its head pierced by arrows, and it was carried on the desk by several Miao people, preparing to skin and debon.
From the size of this mutant bobcat, Li Ba could conclude that this guy had at least second-level evolutionary strength during his lifetime, or even stronger. Its bones should be suitable for making a coffin.
He didn't think much of it and immediately prepared to make a move.
"Brothers, how do you sell this bobcat?"
Li Ba walked into the butcher's shop, pointed to the mutated bobcat on the table, and asked about the price. Several Miao people who were about to disembowelment and clean up the bobcat carcass, one of the sturdy men, immediately smiled and said, "If you talk about the catty scale, three white jade coins are a catty." If you buy it whole...... You can give ten green jade coins! ”
"So expensive!" Li Ba feigned surprise.
The strong man smiled, pointed to the corpse of the bobcat and said, "This guy has a third-level mutant beast, flying around the mountains and forests, moving quickly, and spitting fire and hurting people...... We went to great lengths to kill it, and it's not too expensive to sell it for ten green jade coins! ”
Level 3 Mutant Beast! It's still fire!
Li Ba was overjoyed when he heard this, he didn't say a word, and pointed with his hand: "I want it!" ”
A few minutes later, the entire mutant lynx corpse was put into a big bamboo basket by the Miao family and handed over to Li Ba. Li Ba also took out ten green jade coins.
At the end of the transaction, Li Ba reached out and lifted the bamboo basket containing the corpse of the mutant bobcat above his head, seemingly effortlessly. When those Miao family men saw it, they all blurted out praise. The Miao people are martial arts and admire warriors the most. Li Ba's strength is enough to prove that he is not an ordinary person.
When Li Ba turned around and was about to leave, the strong man who had traded with him just now opened his mouth and shouted: "Brother, wait a minute!" ”
The man shouted to stop Li Ba, took out a bloody thing from under the desk, took a few steps forward, and stuffed it directly into the bamboo basket containing the bobcat corpse.
"Bobcat meat nourishes yin and yang, and cat whip is even more invigorating, and men eat it with infinite use."
The man of the Miao family said this, looked at the sachet hanging from Li Ba's neck, lowered his voice and said: "Originally, I was reluctant to take out this good thing, but my brother has a maternal token, not an outsider, if I Liao Jie swallows the cat whip, it will be too interesting!" ”
Li Ba is a smart person and immediately understood. The thing this guy stuffed into the bamboo basket just now must be some kind of cat whip. Originally, the other party planned to hack it, but when he saw the sachet hanging around his neck, he temporarily changed his mind.
This sachet was given by a group of flower seedlings that I met the day before. The few Miao men in front of them are also flower seedlings from the perspective of clothing. However, they should be mature seedlings, otherwise it would be impossible for them to be so fluent in Chinese. The mother family in their mouth should refer to the real flower seedlings.
"Thanks!"
Li Ba nodded, turned and left. He wasn't interested in what cat whip was, and the reason why he bought this mutant lynx was mainly because he wanted to take its bones and carve the spirit basket.
Leaving the butcher shop, Li Ba carried a medicine basket on his back, holding the corpse of a mutated lynx weighing hundreds of pounds with one hand, and walked with the crowd on the lively street. His white seedling dress, angular face, strong and fair complexion, looks brave and handsome, and is particularly eye-catching.
Miao women are warm and generous, advocating nature and yearning for beautiful things. Li Ba, a handsome guy who is a 'fake white Miao', is quite lethal to the young Miao girls around. Walking along the way, he received a lot of charming eyes from Miao girls, and he was very proud.
"Brother, this style is still OK!"
It stinks a little. Li Ba thought of his three wives in Xibu City, as well as his unborn children, and a group of brothers, and his smugness disappeared immediately. He knows better than anyone that his whereabouts are unknown, which will have a great impact on Xibu City. The three wives who are like flowers and jade must be anxious at the moment, and it is difficult to sleep and eat.
There is no way, even if he wants to go back, with the current situation, he can't do it. What's more, if he enters Baoshan and returns empty-handed, this is not in line with his style of acting.
Just wait!
When the bracelet space is opened, Miao Zhai's elixir resources are almost mastered, and then find a way to go back. Putting aside distractions, Li Ba strode down the street. Soon, I came to the hardware store where I ordered carving knives.
Money talks!
This shop is very efficient. After Li Ba arrived, the custom-made carving knife had been completed. The size and style are exactly the same as the talisman knives stored in the bracelet space, with sharp edges and obvious polishing.
Li Ba was quite satisfied. This purple jade coin is definitely worth it.
The elixir procurement is over. The materials needed to depict the urn are also about the same. Afterwards, Li Ba followed the bluestone path and returned the same way.
Return to the bamboo building on the bank of the river. As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Li Ba saw Ni Hongwei and his family.
"Brother Li, where have you been?"
Ni Hongwei hurried over. He drank too much wine last night, and when he got up, it was already dawn, and he was a little worried. I didn't go up the mountain to collect medicine, so I stayed at home and waited.
"Brother went to the market and made a deal!"
Li Ba put down the medicine basket and the bamboo basket containing the mutated bobcat. After Ni Hongwei and his family saw each other, they were all surprised.
"Brother, you bought all this from the bazaar?" Wu Acai exclaimed.
"yes."
Li Ba smiled and nodded. Subsequently, he directly threw a money bag to Ni Hongwei. The latter opened the money bag and saw that it was full of shiny purple jade coins, as many as a hundred of them.
"Brother Li, so many purple jade coins...... You, where did you get that? Ni Hongwei swallowed and foamed, his face full of horror.
"Brother sold his soft armor and exchanged it for some jade coins."
In this regard, Li Ba did not say much. He looked at Ni Hongwei with a smile and said, "Xiao Ni, Ah Cai, don't you want to open a pharmacy in the bazaar?" Is that money enough! ”
A hundred purple jade coins are enough to buy two shops in the bazaar, of course, it is enough.
After half a sound, Ni Hongwei came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "Brother Li, we will find a way to open a medicine shop ourselves, how can we ask for your money......
"When you say that, you just don't treat me as a brother!"
Li Ba pretended to be unhappy and straightened his face.
"No, I ......" Ni Hongwei was a little at a loss, not knowing what to say.
"Then you take it!"
Li Ba patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Don't be embarrassed, it's a big deal, the pharmacy is opened by our partnership, you and Ah Cai are people, I will pay for it, and we will add five to make profits!" ”
"Hongwei, Brother said so, don't be hypocritical, let's partner with Brother to open a pharmacy!"
Wu Acai was still cheerful, and directly agreed to come down.
"Sister, your character, brother likes it!"
Li Ba praised. Directly at Wu Acai gave a thumbs up. (To be continued.) )
