Chapter 244: Shop
The next day, Su Qing continued to go shopping with Xiao Dawei, and when it was almost noon, he was attracted by a notice for rent.
This area is not prosperous, and it can be regarded as a medium-sized area in the entire city.
The main product of Su Qing's shop is the pill.
Even if he didn't sell improved pills, ordinary pills, Su Qing had a super cheat of small vase space, even if he refined more than three grades of pills, the source of medicinal materials would be endless.
The second grade of the pill, its medicinal materials are already in short supply, and the source of the pill is even more difficult to meet the consumption of cultivators. Su Qing couldn't refine the third-grade pill yet, but if there were enough second-grade pills, even if he hid in the alleyways and sold them, he would quickly attract a large number of buyers.
Therefore, Su Qing didn't care at all whether the location of the shop was prosperous or not.
Walking into this rented shop, an old man greeted him.
"Two guest officers, may I ask if there is anything I can serve you", the old man asked very politely.
Su Qing turned his head and glanced at the entire store.
This shop is only about 20 square meters in size, although the surrounding area is full of shelves, but the shelves are empty, but there are some non-grade cultivation materials.
"Is this shop for rent?" asked Su Qing.
"Yes, yes, does the guest officer have any plans to rent?", the old man said quickly.
"Can you go to the back and have a look?", Su Qing asked when he saw a door at the back of the store.
"Of course, please come with me," said the old man, leading the way.
Out the back door, there is a courtyard.
This courtyard is not very wide, but it is very long, and on one side of the courtyard, there is a row of slippery houses, a total of five rooms.
To Su Qing's surprise, there was a basement under this courtyard. The basement is divided into three rooms, each of which is nearly 30 square meters in size.
Su Qing was very satisfied with this courtyard.
Although the store is a little smaller, it doesn't sell many varieties of goods, and it's useless if it's too big.
However, this courtyard, whether it is the upper room or the basement, there are enough houses and large enough area, no matter what you do, it is very convenient.
"Excuse me, how is this rent calculated?" Su Qing asked the old man.
"This ・・・・・・", the old man suddenly said with some embarrassment, "I don't know how long you want to rent?"
"Is there anything this says?", Su Qing asked puzzled.
"Ahem! This is the case, the old man is not a local, he has been wandering here for decades, only placing such a small industry, and now he is old, and he wants to return to his roots and return to his hometown. I don't know when I'll be able to come over, but if it's a short time for Daoyou, this, this is really a little inconvenient."
"Oh, in that case, isn't this shop ready to make a move?" Su Qing also saw that this old man was also cultivating the ninth layer of qi, and there was no hope of building a foundation, and his lifespan was approaching.
"Huh?", the old man's eyes suddenly lit up, "Of course, this is the best, but my location is not very good, and it is not easy to make a move as soon as possible." The old man has only earned such an industry in his life, and he doesn't plan to sell it at a loss, so he can only rent it out for the time being."
"Then if you want to buy it, I don't know what price you plan to sell?" asked Su Qing.
When the old man heard that Su Qing wanted to buy it, he was immediately very excited, and hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from Daoyou, according to the current market, if you lease it for one year, you will need three or four thousand lower grade spirit stones, and if you sell it, at least 70,000 spirit stones, if you really buy it, the old man will say a sincere price, 65,000 lower grade spirit stones."
When Su Qing heard the old man's offer, he knew in his heart that this price was really only a low price.
But Su Qing now has only tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones in his hand, and he took them out, but he didn't necessarily have enough, so he casually took out two Zhuji Dan and said, "This price is not high, but the spirit stones on hand are a little insufficient, and I don't know if these two Zhuji Dan can be replaced."
A Zhuji Dan also costs at least 30,000 or 40,000 lower-grade spirit stones, which is still a price that has been handed down a long time ago, and now even if it is doubled, there is nowhere to buy it, these two Zhuji Dan can be much higher than 65,000 lower-grade spirit stones.
Su Qing also looked at the old man and saw that his life was about to expire, this was all because of the lack of foundation building pills and the reason why he could not build a foundation, plus the old man didn't seem to be the kind of treacherous person, and he had the heart to help the old man.
Of course, the older you are, the more unfavorable it is for building the foundation, but if there are two Tsukidan, the probability of building the foundation will be greatly increased. Su Qing also gave the old man a chance, if the two foundation building pills could not build the foundation, then he could only blame the old man's life.
"Tsuki, Tsukidan?", the old man's eyes suddenly widened, and his wheezing intensified, as if he was about to lose his breath.
"Zhujidan?", Xiao Dawei next to him was even more thundered.
For a casual cultivator like Xiao Dawei, who has lived so much, Tsukidan is almost equivalent to a fantasy for him, and now it is the first time he has seen it.
Xiao Dawei glanced at Zhuji Dan, and quickly raised his head again, looking at Su Qing as if he was looking at a monster.
It's just that there are many spirit stones, this Zhuji Dan can take out two at once, what is the origin of this young man in front of him?
"Dao, Daoyou, this, this ・・・・・・", the old man gasped and stretched out his hand to grab the Zhuji Dan in Su Qing's hand, but suddenly felt inappropriate, put down his hand in a sneer, and stammered: "Dao, Daoyou, to be honest, the old man is, just use this shop to exchange for a Zhuji Dan, and no one may come to exchange it, two, two Zhuji Dan, this, this is too much." The old man was talking, but his eyes didn't leave the Tsukidan in Su Qing's hand for a moment, as if as long as he took his eyes off, the Tsukidan would fly away.
"Then you just agree, then take it", Su Qing didn't say a word, and slapped Tsukidan on the old man's hand with his backhand.
The old man looked at the Zhuji Dan in his hand, and knew in his heart that Su Qing was helping himself unconditionally. Two lines of old tears suddenly flowed in his eyes, and with a "plop", he knelt down for Su Qing: "Engong is above, and the old man will accept it with shame, but as long as the old man can build a foundation, he will definitely return here, and he will be a slave and a servant for Engong, and the old man will die without regrets."
Qi cultivation period cultivators, once the foundation is established, the lifespan can be increased by more than three hundred years, which is equivalent to extending the life of more than two times, at this time, it is really impossible to find a few people who can be calm.
The transaction was completed, the old man's mood calmed down, and the transaction procedures were quickly delivered, and from then on, Su Qing also had a real shop of his own in this world.
The old man sold the shop to Su Qing, and with Su Qing's consent, he didn't leave here immediately.
Carrying two Tsukidans in his arms, for a Qi cultivation period cultivator, it was even more dangerous than carrying two bombs. Once discovered, let alone building a foundation, you can't even save your life.
The old man decided to build the foundation directly in the basement of the backyard.
There are a lot of houses in the backyard, not to mention that the old man is alone, even if there are a few more, he doesn't have to worry about it, the old man is building a foundation here, of course Su Qing has no opinion.
Moreover, if the old man can really stay and help himself after building the foundation, with his own help to the old man, if he betrays, no matter how treacherous he is, he must also weigh it in his heart.
In addition, since I bought this store, I will not operate it for a short time. When the time comes, even if you leave at any time, you can hand over the store to someone you trust and run it for you.
At the beginning, Su Qing asked Xiao Dawei to go out and hire a few people to clean up the store and all the rooms in the backyard. After a few days, the entire shop and rooms had changed dramatically.
These days, Su Qing has a clone in the small vase space to carefully study the formation, and the level of the formation has also improved greatly, under the guidance of Qu Hua, a formation was arranged, and the entire courtyard was surrounded in the formation.
Qu Hua's formation level, that is not covered, just a very simple arrangement, the solidity of this formation, in the entire Yifang City, is already at the top level, even if the monks of the Yudan period come, it is difficult to open in a short period of time.
When everything was ready, Su Qing asked the old man to build a foundation in the basement, and after the old man built the foundation, his shop was about to open.
I don't know if it's because Su Qing's Tsukidan is of good quality, or if the old man's talent itself is good. Two days later, the old man only took one Tsukidan and successfully built the foundation.
The old man's name was Hua Haichao, and he came from a mortal town more than 5,000 miles away. Because the old man became a cultivator, the family also followed suit, and now it is one of the largest families in that town.
Hua Haichao is now more than 100 years old now, there is no hope of building a foundation, he was going to return to the field and return to the family for retirement, but he didn't expect to meet Su Qing, which is equivalent to encountering a great opportunity and successfully building a foundation.
Hua Haichao successfully built the foundation, and his lifespan increased by hundreds of years, not to mention his family, because of the backstage of a foundation building monk, the family's status in the local area will also greatly step up to a higher level.
Hua Haichao has built the foundation, but the heart of returning home is even more eager.
The reason for this is, on the one hand, because of the success of the foundation, and the eagerness to return to his hometown and show his strength. On the other hand, more importantly, among Hua Haichao's great-grandson, there is also a descendant with spiritual roots.
Hua Haichao's great-grandson is now nearly 100 years old. Moreover, Hua Haichao has opened this shop for decades, and most of his income is spent on cultivating this great-grandson, and now this great-grandson also has the cultivation of the ninth layer of qi.
Now Hua Haichao is in a hurry to go back, just to send the remaining Tsukidan in his hand back to his great-grandson.
Of course, Su Qing understood Hua Haichao's mood, and when Hua Haichao proposed to go home, Su Qing agreed without hesitation.
Moreover, Hua Haichao said that he would follow Su Qing for the rest of his life, and Su Qing would just listen to it. If Hua Haichao can really come back, it will be the best. Hua Haichao didn't come back, and Su Qing didn't mind.
