Chapter 50: In the late stage of Qi refining, good things come in pairs

Hongyafang City, Spirit Beast Zhai.

After more than a month, the passenger flow of Spirit Beast Zhai has decreased a lot.

Now I don't want to come here to buy or sell things, and the monks who have already come to the shop will not come again.

However, in the eyes of some monks who have sold things to the Spirit Beast Zhai, the purchase price of some things in the Spirit Beast Zhai will be higher than that of other shops.

Therefore, now after some monks go out to adventure and obtain certain spiritual objects, when they shop around, they will list the spirit beast Zhai as one of them.

On the morning of this day, a middle-aged man in black with a late-stage Qi refining cultivation strode into the Spirit Beast Zhai.

After he entered the store, he greeted the counter familiarly: "Zhou Daoyou, Lin has brought you business again." ”

Behind the counter, Zhou Chun, who was reading a book, heard these words, and hurriedly got up and looked at the comer.

When he saw the appearance of the person who came, he also smiled and bowed his hand: "It turned out to be Lin Daoyou, what kind of treasure did Daoyou get?" ”

"It's not a good thing, it's just that when I teamed up with a few Taoist friends to hunt demons a few days ago, I picked a few elixirs."

As he spoke, the man in black reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out three wooden boxes and put them on the counter.

Then he grinned as if he didn't care: "Zhou Daoyou, you give me a look at the palm of your hand and see how many spirit coins these things can be worth." ”

"You're welcome to be down there."

Zhou Chun answered, then opened the first wooden box, took out a two-finger-sized ginseng-like elixir from it, and looked at it carefully.

I saw that he first turned the elixir around and took a closer look to see if it was damaged or damaged, and at the same time looked at its length and size and the lines on it.

Then bring it to the front of your nose and sniff it violently, smelling its medicinal ginseng flavor.

Then he pinched the pillar with his fingers and rubbed it a few times to verify that it was not a gluing forgery.

After looking at the elixir like this, Zhou Chuncai put it back in the wooden box and said to the man in black: "A newly picked yellow bud ginseng, the age of the medicine should be between fifty and seventy years, the condition is intact and undamaged, and the purchase price of this store is seven spirit coins!" ”

When the man in black heard this, his eyes moved slightly, but he said, "Don't worry, let's take a look at the other two." ”

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also nodded with a smile, opened the other two wooden boxes, and took out the elixirs one by one to examine them.

"A newly mined silver clematium plant, the condition is intact and undamaged, and the purchase price of our store is five spirit coins."

"A newly picked candle flame grass, the condition is slightly damaged, and the purchase price of our store is eight spirit coins."

After quoting the prices of the elixirs in the three wooden boxes like this, Zhou Chun put the elixir back into the wooden box, looked at the man in black and asked, "Lin Daoyou, are you still satisfied with Zhou's offer?" Do you want to sell these elixirs to our store? ”

"The quotation is really fair, it seems that Lin will come to your store often in the future."

The man in black smiled slightly, revealing a look of satisfaction.

Then he pushed the three wooden boxes in front of Zhou Chun, and left with the twenty spirit coins given by Zhou Chun.

After the man in black left, Zhou Jiasheng, who was sitting on a chair in the store, got up and walked to the counter, opened the three wooden boxes in front of Zhou Chun, and examined the three elixirs again.

Then he looked at Zhou Chun and said lightly: "Yellow bud ginseng has more than sixty years of medicinal age, and the price of seven spirit coins is normal. ”

"Silver-clemat has matured and can be used in medicine, and the price of five spirit coins is also normal."

"The rhizome of the Candle Flame Grass has a slight break, the medicinal effect is lost, and it is difficult to store it for a long time, it is worth seven spirit coins at most!"

Speaking of this, he shook his head at Zhou Chun and said, "You are still a little younger, you still have to learn and do more, that spirit coin will be recorded in your account first!" ”

"Yes, little nephew understands."

Zhou Chun answered, and wrote down the transaction in the ledger.

After the account book was ready, he said softly: "Actually, the little nephew also knows that the candle flame grass is not worth eight spirit coins, but the purchase price given by the first two elixirs in each store is basically not different, and since that Lin Daoyou will come to our spirit beast Zhai in this case, he is obviously not satisfied with the purchase price of the candle flame grass in other stores." ”

"In this case, the little nephew privately thinks that if he can use the concession of a spirit coin this time to make him give priority to our spirit beast Zhai when selling spirit objects in the future, then this spirit coin will be worth it!"

Zhou Jiasheng's eyes condensed slightly, and he couldn't help but look at him with surprise.

After staring at Zhou Chun like this for a long time, he sighed with a complicated face: "I'm not as good as you!" ”

After speaking, he laughed at himself and said: "In vain, my Zhou family has lived for decades, and I have always prided myself on being old and old, and I don't want to be taught a lesson by a young junior like you today, it's really ridiculous!" ”

His mood at this time was complicated and indescribable.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun hurriedly said: "Uncle Sixteen is serious, there is nothing wrong with what you did in this matter, don't you see that the shopkeepers of other shops are doing this?" ”

After speaking, he also smiled slightly bitterly: "The little nephew's approach is just opportunistic, maybe that Lin Daoyou will come again next time, and he will not come again in the future when he sees that it is unprofitable!" ”

"No, you don't have to comfort me."

Zhou Jiasheng shook his head, looked at him with a complicated face, stretched out his hand and said: "Although I had opinions on your practices before, I am not blind in my eyes, and my heart is not blind, and the facts in front of me can still be clearly distinguished from good and bad!" ”

"You're right just now, if we can give customers a concession that other stores don't have in this kind of detail, we will have a great chance of leaving a good impression in the hearts of visitors, so that they will give priority to us next time they sell spiritual objects, and we won't give other shops an excuse to trouble us!"

Speaking of this, he also said convincingly: "No wonder the patriarch insists on letting you come here to experience, it seems that the patriarch has long discovered that you have extraordinary insight and whimsy!" ”

Since this day, Zhou Jiasheng's attitude towards Zhou Chun has obviously changed a lot.

Even if he made a mistake in the identification of some spiritual objects in the future, he would no longer scold him with a bad face, but would calmly tell him what was wrong and how to correct it.

Even in his spare time, he would tell Zhou Chun some examples of being deceived when he was learning art in the past, so that Zhou Chun knew how to distinguish the methods of some veteran counterfeiters.

However, in this way, Zhou Chun had thought about taking the opportunity to privately acquire the elixir, but he had no chance to act for the time being.

Fortunately, he is not particularly anxious about this, but he is also relieved to learn this knowledge every day.

With the passage of time in this way, after the third month of Zhou Chun's arrival in Fang City, his cultivation finally successfully broke through to the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period after taking the tenth [Jade Ginseng Pill], and officially entered the late stage of Qi Refining.

Unlike the previous cultivation improvement in the mid-stage realm of qi refining, this breakthrough in the small realm brought Zhou Chun great benefits.

First of all, his mana increased by nearly sixty percent at once, and he could use all his strength to urge the [Moon Blade Meteor Wheel], a first-order high-grade magic weapon, to fight for more than a quarter of an hour.

Then his divine sense was also greatly enhanced, and the detection range of his divine sense jumped to more than eighty zhang, and he could use three or four magic weapons at the same time without feeling pressure.

At the same time, because of the breakthrough growth of his cultivation, the power of the two secret techniques he had learned, especially the secret technique of the "Five Elements Spirit Armor Technique", had also been greatly improved.

And good things come in pairs.

Not long after the news of Zhou Chunxiu's breakthrough came back to the family, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi promoted him to the core of the family and Zhou Zhengyong to the elite of the family.

It turned out that after many bargaining and negotiations, the Chiyao iron ore vein could finally be announced for mining.

After many discussions, the Chiyao iron vein was jointly owned and mined by the five major immortal cultivation families, among which the Zhou family, because it was the discoverer of the vein, and could provide the Zifu period of combat power to deter peepers, and was able to share the profits of the three percent of the vein.

The Sun family of Jinfengling is the closest to the ore vein, and will provide rest and supply land for the monks who mine the veins free of charge, and are willing to undertake part of the mining tasks, and they will also be able to share the profits of the three percent of the ore veins.

The Wang family of the Red Medicine Valley has a Purple Mansion monk, and is willing to share the task of purifying and removing half of the turbid qi in the Chiyao iron ore, so that he can share the profits of the two veins.

The Mu family of Biyun Mountain and the He family of Qingzhu Mountain, because they only shared some tasks of purifying and removing the turbid qi in the Chiyao iron ore and providing force deterrence, they only shared the profits of the ore veins.

After the five major immortal cultivators agreed on the distribution of profits, they each sent people to the Sun family in Jinfengling to guard the ore veins.

At the same time, a large number of low-level cultivators were recruited to mine ore.

And the news about the appearance of this Chiyao iron vein also quickly spread in the Fang City.

For a while, the entire Lanzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm had waves because of this vein.

"Recently, because of the matter of that ore vein, there has been a lot of movement in the Lanzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm, and the patriarch said on the Eagle News, let us also pay attention to the opinions of the monks in Fang City on this matter."

"The old man wants to sit in the store, so this matter will be done by you and your nephew."

In the spirit beast house, Zhou Jiasheng explained the situation to Zhou Chun after reading the letter brought by the Flying Eagle from the family.

The Zhou family's domesticated communication eagle can travel thousands of miles to communicate.

Moreover, in addition to taking off and landing, the flying eagles are flying at a high altitude of more than 1,000 zhang, unless it is a foundation building period monk and a flying demon beast, it is difficult to intercept this kind of flying eagle.

Therefore, the Fang City side can exchange correspondence with the Jiufengling family every ten days, exchanging some information that does not need to be kept confidential.

And because there is a formation in Fang City, the Flying Eagle cannot enter, and it is usually Zhou Chun who temporarily leaves the Fang City at a fixed time and goes to the top of the mountain outside to notify the circling Eagle to land and send and receive letters.

At this time, after listening to Zhou Jiasheng's words, he was also moved in his heart, and immediately responded: "The little nephew understands, then the things in the store will have to work hard for Uncle Sixteen." ”
