Time passes.

Soon, a month passed.

After Chen Xuan's careful care, the spiritual rice in the spiritual field has sprouted and grown, and it is already more than twenty centimeters long, but the cultivated elixir has just broken the ground and sprouted, and only one-fifth of it has successfully germinated.

"Of the sixty elixir seeds, only twelve have successfully germinated."

Chen Xuan's brows furrowed slightly.

This germination rate is also too low.

Moreover, after the elixir is successfully germinated, it may not all grow, and the seedling rate is generally 50%.

If you calculate it in this way, sixty elixir seeds can only get six elixirs in the end.

If you don't take care of it properly during this period, I'm afraid that even a mature elixir won't be harvested.

"Profiteers!"

Chen Xuan took out the elixir seed and examined it carefully, and soon discovered the problem.

During this time, he had read more than a dozen books on elixir cultivation, and his proficiency in planting skills had improved.

In these books there is a way to identify seeds.

Chen Xuan looked at these elixir seeds bought from the pharmacy, and they were mixed with many defective products.

There are only about two-thirds of the elixir seeds that are truly qualified.

The elixir seeds sold in the Fang City Pharmacy are all packaged, and they are not allowed to be checked at all, so they can only be bought one by one.

Sure enough, profiteers are everywhere.

"When I brush up my planting skills, I will go to the Fang City Free Trade Zone to buy elixir seeds."

After watering the spiritual field, Chen Xuan took the spiritual runes drawn these days and went to Fang City.

……

……

Baiyunfang City, Free Trade Zone.

It is said to be a free trading area, but it is actually an empty square.

The items placed in the square stalls can be passed, and the price is one or two percent lower than that of the store, but just looking at the appearance, the truth and falsehood are mixed, and there is no certain vision to find a pit.

"The Reborn Financial Giant"

For example, some stalls sell elixir seeds, which are a mixture of good and bad seeds, and you can pick and choose, without a certain eyesight, and the elixir seeds purchased may have more defective products than those purchased in the store.

These stall owners who sell elixir seeds basically grow their own elixirs.

They have the means to turn the defective seeds into real ones, making it difficult for people to distinguish, not only can they not distinguish them with the naked eye, but even if they use the spiritual eye qi technique, they can also see that the seeds contain weak spiritual power.

Even, some books on elixir cultivation sold in bookstores were written by them.

If you want to pick up the leaks in the stalls in the free trade zone, it is impossible.

At most, you won't be pitted.

Chen Xuan's current cultivation skills are only at the first level, and he can distinguish between genuine and defective elixir seeds that have not been processed by special means, but those processed seeds cannot be distinguished for the time being.

Therefore, even if he wants to go to the free trade zone to buy elixir seeds, he must first brush up his planting skills.

Soon.

Chen Xuan came to a vacant lot and began to set up a stall.

A piece of cloth was placed on the ground, and on it were several cards with talismans for sale.

Chen Xuan can draw eight kinds of primary spirit talismans, which are light talismans, invisibility talismans, evil spirit talismans, wall piercing talismans, fireball talismans, talismans, hemostatic talismans and soul suppression talismans.

Previously, Chen Xuan came to the free trade zone to investigate, and the eight primary spirit talismans he would know, among which the invisibility talisman and fireball talisman were the best-selling, followed by the soul suppression talisman and evil spirit talisman.

This is still because the Tianyin Sect is in the world, controlling the Yin Soul Evil to cause chaos in the counties of Yuanzhou, and even sacrificing a county town with blood, so it has driven the sales of Soul Suppression Talisman and Evil Talisman.

Many of the casual cultivators in the Fang Market have families in the mundane, and they will return to the family every once in a while to buy some evil charms and soul suppression talismans in case of emergency.

After the investigation, Chen Xuan mainly drew invisibility talismans, fireball talismans, evil talismans and soul suppression talismans.

Because it is drawn in his spare time, there are not many of each type of rune.

In one month, only thirty of each type of rune were drawn.

After setting up the stall, Chen Xuan took out a copy of "Elixir Characteristics" and read it, waiting for the buyer to come to the door.

"How do you sell fireball charms?"

Soon, a casual cultivator came to the booth and asked.

Pills, spirit runes, magic weapons and array flags, which can greatly improve their strength, are basically not sold, but the pills are monopolized by the Five Alliances, and the free trade area is at most to sell some elixirs of their own seeds.

And the number of elixirs can't be too much, otherwise the Five Alliances will come to the door to 'buy'.

The price of magic weapons and array flags is much more expensive than spirit runes.

Because the spirit rune is a one-time consumable, and a magic weapon can be used for a long time, if it is not destroyed by a powerful force, that magic weapon can be used for at least a hundred years, and the rune patterns on the magic weapon will be worn and consumed.

Therefore, one magic vessel is enough to become a family heirloom, and one instrument can be passed down to three generations.

"Six pieces of blood tooth rice for a pound."

Chen Xuan replied.

The price he quoted is the normal price in the free trading area.

Fang City specializes in selling spirit talismans, and the fireball talisman is five pieces of blood tooth rice per catty.

If Sanxiu wants to sell the spirit rune in his hand, he can only sell it lower than the shop in Fang City.

Some casual cultivators were cautious in their hands, and they didn't have jade spirit money, so they traded it with blood tooth rice.

Basically, the free trade zone uses blood tooth rice as the trading currency, or barter.

"Bring me six."

This loose cultivator took out a bag of bloody tooth rice.

Chen Xuan took the Blood Tooth Rice, opened the bag and checked it, and after no problem, he took out six fireball talismans from his arms and handed them to the other party, "Here you go, six fireball talismans." ”

The Sanxiu took the fireball talisman and got up to leave.

"Bring me nine fireball talismans, three invisibility talismans, three evil talismans, and three soul suppression talismans."

It didn't take long for another cultivator to come and buy the spirit rune.

"A total of three catties of bloody tooth rice."

Chen Xuan spoke.

took the bag with the spirit rice handed over by the other party,

Soon, all the one hundred and twenty spirit runes were sold, and twenty catties of blood tooth rice were obtained, worth one jade spirit coin.

If he didn't farm and make talismans wholeheartedly, he would be able to draw about 600 spirit runes in a month, and if he exchanged them for jade spirit money, it would be five, and in a year, it would be 60 jade spirit money.

Rent for thirty jade spirit dollars a Chinese New Year's Eve.

If he eats bloody rice every day, he will get at least sixty catties a month, which is three jade spirit coins.

It is thirty-six jade spirit coins a year, and sixty-six jade spirit coins plus rent.

In this way, you can't make ends meet.

And that's not even counting the cost of drawing runes.

It's no wonder that some people are frugal and eat white bead rice.

"It's still too low."

Chen Xuan sighed in his heart.

If he reached the perfection of the internal qi realm, and the internal qi was several times stronger than it is now, he would be able to draw thousands of talismans in a month, and his income would be at least several times greater.

If you reach the Qi Refining Realm, you can earn at least a thousand Jade Spirit Coins that year.

However, he can quickly improve his proficiency in talisman techniques and cultivation, but the improvement of his cultivation realm requires energy support, and if he does not have the secret medicine of cultivation, he can only take his time.

"Fellow Daoist, do you want to buy a jar of spirit wine?"

Seeing Chen Xuan closing the stall, the Taoist who sold wine on the side asked.
