Chapter 81: A Strange Caravan Arrives on Mingcheng Island (Ask for Subscription!) )
On Mingcheng Island, Xu Xuanling was listening to Xu Gaolang's report.
"Patriarch, last year, the caravan traveled twice and sold a total of 50,000 spirit stones!"
"Huatian and Huacheng are two sea areas, and the goods worth more than 20,000 spirit stones brought by each sea area have been sold out, should we bring more next time?"
Xu Gaolang's face was full of excitement.
As the leader of the Xu family's caravan newly appointed by Xu Xuanling, he went to other seas twice a year to sell the Xu family's specialties, and harvested about 50,000 spirit stones at once, which made him very excited.
This is not all the output of the Xu family, a white jade bead is worth ten spirit stones, and an ordinary spirit shell in the early stage of qi cultivation can produce two to three white jade beads every year!
Coupled with the Lingbei in the middle stage of Qi training, the Lingbei farm can produce nearly 10,000 white jade beads every year! Let the Xu family make a lot of money.
However, the sale of white jade beads in the Huaqing Sea has reached saturation, and only about 2,000 pieces can be digested every year, and the rest can only be backlogged.
Therefore, Brother Xu established the Xu family caravan and let Xu Gaolang serve as the leader, responsible for selling some of the Xu family's specialties.
This time I went out, it was just a tentative attempt to see if these things of the Xu family could still be sold so well in other seas.
Xu Xuanling smiled angrily: "So impatient, how can you manage the caravan well!" ”
Xu Gaolang smiled.
He was also so excited just now, and he was a little excited to achieve such good results for the first time in such an important position.
Xu Xuanling explained: "Once a year, 20,000 spirit stones at a time, this is already a lot of money for other foundation building families, and if you bring something too valuable at a time, it is inevitable that someone will have bad intentions." ”
"Think about it, are there often strange monks watching near the caravan this time?"
"Li Changsheng has already told me, he has at least seen dozens of strange monks' breaths, and there is no shortage of foundation building levels!"
"If I don't let Li Changsheng and Uncle Yu go with you this time, and let you take three foundation building puppets, do you think you can still stand in front of me completely?"
Xu Xuanling's words made Xu Gaolang break out in a cold sweat, and he had only noticed the sale of goods on the way, and he hadn't noticed the eyes in the dark at all.
I couldn't help but be a little afraid, and said: "It's like this, and I'm proud of it." ”
Then he looked at Brother Xu with admiration, and said, "I didn't expect that Uncle Xuan Ling was thoughtful." ”
Hearing Xu Gaolang's praise, Xu Xuanling took a sip of tea and said lightly: "When you go out, the most important thing to watch out for is people's hearts. ”
"The wealth is not exposed, and the goods worth more than 20,000 spirit stones are carried at one time, which is already very coveted by others, which is fortunate that there are five foundation-building combat forces in the caravan, if there are two puppets missing, few people will dare to take risks."
"Besides, you are outsiders, if you arouse the disgust of the strongest family in the local area, it is easy to arouse the resonance of the monks of that sea area and divide you together."
"So I only let you bring 20,000 spirit stones, plus the five foundation building combat power, let them know that our Xu family is not easy to mess with, so that things can be smooth."
Xu Gaolang is still very young, and he has not experienced any sinister people before, so he is still very naïve.
However, these can be cultivated slowly, Xu Xuanling arranged for him to be the leader of the newly built caravan, firstly because of his talent, he will not be coaxed by others, and secondly, he wants to cultivate him.
So now Xu Xuanling is constantly teaching Xu Gaolang these things.
Xu Gaolang listened very carefully, these were things he had never been in contact with before, and he also knew that Xu Xuanling wanted to cultivate him, so he had been working hard and didn't want to live up to Xu Xuanling's trust.
Just when Xu Xuanling was teaching Xu Gaolang, there was a knock on Qing'er's door outside the door.
"Patriarch, a caravan has arrived on Mingcheng Island, and the leader of their caravan wants to meet you."
Hearing this, Xu Xuanling stopped.
He said angrily to Xu Gaolang: "How many years have you stopped at the ninth layer of qi training, and you are not ready to break through the foundation, and you will be given a few more years, if your cultivation is not growing at all, you will not be the leader of the caravan." ”
This year, because of the formation of the caravan, Xu Gaolang almost didn't practice, his heart pounced on the caravan, and he personally asked about everything, and he had already reached the ninth level of Qi cultivation without an inch of cultivation, which attracted Xu Xuanling's reprimand.
"Put more effort into cultivation again, the most important thing for a monk is himself, there are other people in the caravan, for those small things, you only need to hand them over to your subordinates, and you can take care of the big things."
"If you have to ask about everything, how much time do you have to spend dealing with miscellaneous things?"
Hearing Xu Xuanling talk about his cultivation angrily.
Xu Gaolang sneered: "Uncle Xuanling, I know, I will take cultivation to heart." ”
didn't care about Xu Gaolang, Xu Xuanling walked out of the door.
While asking Qi Qing'er about the caravan, he walked out with Bai Ze.
Qing'er respectfully followed aside, and replied: "The caravan said that they came from the Huaxing Sea a few seas away, and they passed through the Huaqing Sea, so they came here to sell special products, and their leader seems to be a foundation building monk. ”
Xu Xuanling pondered as he walked.
There has been no caravan from other sea areas here in the Huaqing Sea area for decades, and that caravan did not go to those rich sea areas but came here, and specially wanted to see himself.
It's weird.
Xu Xuanling kept thinking about it, but he didn't come up with a reason, and shook his head.
Forget it, I haven't seen me, so it's useless to think about it here, and see where that person came from.
Between his thoughts, Xu Xuanling quickened his pace and walked towards the reception hall.
When he came to the reception hall, a middle-aged monk who was sitting on a chair and looked elegant saw Xu Xuanling come in, and got up with a smile on his face to greet him.
"Patriarch Xu, I have admired the name for a long time."
Hearing this, Xu Xuanling couldn't help but complain, except for taking the ship of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce to the Four Elephant Sect, I have never been out of the Huaqing Sea, where did I come from for a long time.
But he still returned with a smile: "You're polite." ”
Then he invited him to his seat, asked Qing'er to make tea, and asked, "I don't know the name yet." ”
Gongsun Congfeng smiled and waved his hand, "Ma Yuanzhuang, from the Huaxing Sea Area, is now the head of the Ma Family Chamber of Commerce. ”
Bai Ze's voice came to Xu Xuanling's mind, it is true that Ma Yuanzhuang is from the Huaxing Sea, but it is not him, a pseudonym.
Xu Xuanling heard Bai Ze's transmission, and he had some understanding in his heart, and transmitted the message to Bai Ze.
"Wait a minute, help me see what he said is true and what is false."
It is also a foundation building, and it is impossible for other foundation building monks to hear it, so Xu Xuanling is so relieved to transmit the message to Bai Ze.
The body movements did not stop, and while drinking tea, he said with a smile: "Ma Daoyou, I don't know why you are here?" ”
Gongsun Congfeng looked at Xu Xuanling at this time, and he only had the cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, and his heart was settled.
smiled and said, "Patriarch Xu, passing by your land this time. "I didn't come here on purpose.
"One is that I want to rest here for three days, and the other is that I want to sell or buy some special products here, I don't know if the nobles can make it convenient." There are also sales or purchases, but not for the main purpose, so don't be fooled.
Then he took out a storage bag and put it in front of Xu Xuanling's eyes.
"A little heart, not worth mentioning." Not much, really
Every time the so-called 'Ma Yuanzhuang' in front of him said a word, Bai Ze analyzed the truth or falsehood for Xu Xuanling in the back.
Xu Xuanling took the storage bag, swept his senses, and a thousand spirit stones, which is not bad for the ordinary Zhuji family.
Putting the storage bag aside, he said with a smile: "Ma Daoyou has no problem if you want to rest here for as long as you want, it would be great to be able to buy some more special products, and I will send someone to take you to see it later." ”
...................
The two boasted to each other for a while.
Gongsun Congfeng got up from the wind and said with a smile: "Patriarch Xu, we had a very good conversation today, but I still have a lot of matters to deal with when I first come to your place, please forgive me." ”
Xu Xuanling also got up to send him off, "Where is it, it matters to deal with things." ”
"Farewell!"
Watching 'Ma Yuanzhuang' leave, Xu Xuanling narrowed.
The person in front of me is really talking without leakage, if Bai Ze wasn't here, I wouldn't have known that this person came on purpose.
Deliberately came for the Huaqing Sea area, and the caravan usually sold things to ask the Fang City manager for instructions, so there was no need to specifically ask to meet the patriarch.
And this person's cultivation is not low, and he is in the late stage of foundation building.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuanling may have something to think about.
What is it for......
At this time, Gongsun Congyun returned to the caravan.
He was quite satisfied in his heart, and to his surprise, he could still see the patriarch of this family.
Although he didn't know much more, he was very satisfied to meet the patriarch of this family, and he could more or less see what kind of family it was through the patriarch of a family.
It's just that although I know the cultivation of the patriarch, it is unknown how much other foundation-building combat power this family has.
You can ask about it tomorrow.
..................
The next day, although Xu Xuanling didn't know what the purpose of this caravan was here, he could earn some spirit stones, and let a few clever clansmen take him to the Xu family's shop.
After the clansmen brought Gongsun Congyun to the shop, they left silently and let him make his own choice.
Gongsun Congyun looked at the various grades of white jade beads and various materials in the shop, and secretly pondered in his heart.
I didn't expect that this family still had some ability, and there was a way to cultivate Lingbei.
Picking up a low-grade white jade bead, he casually asked, "How much is this spirit bead worth?" ”
The clansmen in the shop replied: "This is the white jade bead, which is a spiritual object that our Xu family has cultivated for many years, which can help Qi cultivators absorb more spiritual power when cultivating, one can be used for about half a year, and it is worth ten spirit stones." ”
When the clansmen saw that it was a fresh face, and it was brought by other people in the clan, they naturally spared no effort to boast about the benefits of Bai Yuzhu.
Gongsun Congyun became interested, picked up a white jade bead, and used spiritual power to feel it.
After a while, there was some surprise, although the effect of condensing spiritual power was very weak, but it was better to use it for a long time, and the price was not expensive.
It should be very good for those low-level monks, and his keen sense of business has made him understand that this thing may be very popular among casual cultivators.
Then, while inspecting the other qualities of white jade beads, he pretended to ask casually, "This thing should be very popular with you here." ”
The clansmen were instantly vigilant, and the positions that could hold the position of selling white jade beads here were all carefully selected by Xu Xuanling, so naturally they would not be tricked.
The most important thing is to hide the output of the white jade beads, knowing that the person in front of him may have bad intentions.
The clansman showed an impeccable smile and said, "Guest, the white jade beads are carefully cultivated by my Xu family, and each one consumes a lot of energy, and the output is limited. ”
Then he said no more.
Gongsun Congyun looked at this situation, and knew that it would be somewhat deliberate to ask again, and then said: "Is there only a low-grade and medium-grade grade?" ”
The clansman then pretended to regret and said, "There are only a small part of the middle grades, and I don't know if they are higher." ”
"Okay, get me five hundred low-grade ones, one hundred medium-grade ones, how many spirit stones?"
!
The clansmen were surprised, she didn't dare to decide on such a large amount.
He could only hesitate to say: "Distinguished guest, you want too much, I don't have that authority, I can only ask the patriarch first, and please wait for a while." ”
If it was really sold to the person in front of her, it would be ten thousand spirit stones, and she couldn't make up her mind, so she could only send someone to inform the patriarch.
Gongsun Congyun waved his hand indifferently and said, "It's okay for me to walk around here." ”
After that, he will observe the other products in his store.
After a while, Xu Xuanling's hearty voice came.
"Ma Daoyou, if you really want Bai Yuzhu, tell me directly, this is for those loose cultivators, there is not much stock, if you want so much, you will naturally not be able to get it."
Seeing Xu Xuanling's arrival, Gongsun Congyun said with a smile: "I knew that Patriarch Xu had such a good thing as Bai Yuzhu here, and I had to be cheeky to let you give me a discount when I said anything yesterday." ”
Xu Xuanling returned with a smile: "It's easy to say, give Ma Daoyou a nine-percent discount." ”
"It's just that Bai Yuzhu is also cultivated by my Xu family, and it takes a lot of effort to cultivate, and I have to earn some benefits, so I can only give such a discount, and I hope Ma Daoyou will forgive me."
"How many pieces do Ma Daoyou want?"
Gongsun Congyun sighed for a few breaths, and said with a smile: "Since Patriarch Xu gives Ma a certain face like this, I don't want to buy only a little, so I will have a thousand lower grades, two hundred medium grades, but I don't know if this thing has a high grade or even a foundation building quality?" ”
Xu Xuan looked embarrassed and said: "Ma Daoyou has strong financial resources, and he will buy most of my Xu family's inventory at once." ”
Then he gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "But since Ma Daoyou has spoken, it is natural to give priority to Daoyou." ”
Said to Qing'er behind him: "Go to the warehouse and take out a thousand lower grades, and two hundred medium grades." ”
"Yes."
Then he smiled dumbly: "As for the quality of foundation building that Ma Daoyou said, a spiritual object like white jade beads, even the top grade is extremely rare, let alone a higher quality." ”
took out two jade boxes from the storage ring and said: "But since Ma Daoyou has spoken, naturally I can't let you go home empty-handed, there are five high-grade white jade beads and one top-grade white jade bead in this box, which will be regarded as a meeting gift for Ma Daoyou." ”
"How can this work, it's too precious, Brother Xu can't do it." Gongsun Congfeng's face was surprised, and he waved his hand and said. "Ma Mou, who can buy the lower grade and the middle grade, is very satisfied, Brother Xu doesn't need to be like this."
"Eh, where is Ma Daoyou........ talking?"
Just when the two of them shirked, Qing'er came behind Xu Xuanling with two storage bags, and said respectfully: "Patriarch, the things have been brought." ”
Xu Xuanling stuffed the jade box into Gongsun Congfeng's hand, and Zhengse said: "Ma Daoyou, don't shirk it, you and I hit it off at first sight, it's just some foreign objects, don't care." ”
Gongsun Congyun looked as if he had made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Since Brother Xu is so enthusiastic, Ma Mou can't excuse himself anymore, thank you here." ”
took the storage bag in Qing'er's hand, took out a storage bag from his waist, and said to Xu Xuanling: "Since the maid of the Xu clan has brought the things, here is the payment for 20,000 spirit stones and white jade beads, Brother Xu accept it." ”
Seeing that Xu Xuanling was about to speak again, Gongsun Congyun hurriedly said: "Brother Xu, don't mention the discount, there is still a discount for taking Brother Xu's things, doesn't this make Ma feel uneasy." ”
The two took the storage bag in each other's hands and put it away without checking the inside.
slashed at each other.
Gongsun Congyun arched his hand and said: "Excuse me Brother Xu, Ma still needs to see other places in Fang City, and he can't stay too long." ”
Brother Xu smiled and returned: "Where, where, if there is anything to come to me, Ma Daoyou is at his own convenience." ”
