Chapter 121: Seeds

Out of the guest room, Hua Ying went down to the first floor of the inn, and by the way, she heard some news from the little guy yesterday.

After a little inquiry, I learned where the street vendors in this city gathered.

She was overjoyed, and hurried in the direction of the little man, like a child from school, and ran into a small alley near the main street.

It is said to be a small alley, but it is only relative to the main road of Xiancheng, and its alley is so wide that it can accommodate several carriages passing at the same time.

Hua Ying found this place and went headlong into the alley.

She is gearing up to make a big move, ready to monopolize the local melon market, so as to make a fortune and make a lot of money. Unexpectedly, after seeing the situation in the alley, her silly smiling face collapsed instantly.

"This"

As far as the eye can see, from the end of the alley to the end of the alley, the stall market for almost a mile is full of vendors selling all kinds of melons, fruits and vegetables, and their stalls are filled with all kinds of spiritual melons and fruits, and there are countless varieties, which directly makes Hua Ying dumbfounded.

"This"

Hua Ying was so shocked that she was speechless for a while, and she didn't say anything for a long time, just standing at the mouth of the alley, like a piece of wood that had been struck by lightning.

"Woohoo."

After being stunned for a long time, she looked at the vendors selling spirit melons and spirit fruits, and instantly wanted to cry without tears.

How can I sell melons! The competition is too fierce!

Without comparison, Hua Ying really didn't know that it was so difficult to do business. In the past, few people competed with her in Dongshanfang City, so the spirit melon business was booming, but now in the big city, she encountered the street full of merchants selling spirit melon, and she didn't know where to start for a while.

The spirit melons sold by people are big and round, the quality is smart, and there are many varieties, how can you compete with others?

A little depressed, Hua Yingqiang cheered up, walked into the stall market, and randomly selected a few melon stalls to interrogate.

"Boss, how do you sell this melon!"

"It's cheap, no, it's expensive."

"What kind of melon is this, is it delicious?"

"Boss, what kind of melon is this, what kind of melon is this, what kind of melon is this, and this. This and that"

"Is this melon ripe? Well, I'll just ask, I can't afford it."

After visiting more than a dozen melon stalls one after another, Hua Ying inquired about the market of spiritual melons in the local market.

Many vendors only knew that they didn't buy melons when they asked this and that, so they were so angry that they drove her away, Rao is that she is not thin-skinned, and she can't stand the disdain in the words of those bosses.

Soon, after finishing the visit, she slipped to a corner, Hua Ying pursed her lips and said speechlessly: "Don't you just ask, do you need to be so angry?" ”

These melon stall owners are too unkind!

Depressed is depressed, but fortunately, there is still something to gain.

After some investigation just now, Hua Ying learned that the price of the spirit melon in the stall market here is not very high, and the price is very affordable, such as the most common melon, a low-grade spirit stone can be bought for nearly thirty catties.

This price is really a bit ridiculously cheap.

The reason why there is such a low price is that it is said that some local spirit plant families have contracted a lot of spirit fields outside the ancient moon immortal city, specializing in cultivating this kind of spirit melon spirit fruit with fast growth speed and short ripening cycle.

The vendors in these stall markets themselves do not have the ability to produce melons, and most of them come to this market to set up stalls and retail after buying a large number of spiritual melons from the Lingzhi family, and all they earn is the price difference.

Those spirit plant families outside the city are dozens of hundreds of acres of spirit melons, and if the cost is controlled, the price of spirit melons can naturally be pushed to the minimum.

This is also the reason why there are so many spirit melon vendors in this Ancient Moon Immortal City, and the monks in the city have also developed the habit of eating melons and fruits every day.

Compared with its low price, when Hua Ying was in Dongshanfang City in the past, the price of selling spirit melons was generally eighteen catties of a spirit stone, and the most preferential time was only twenty catties.

If it is still sold at the previous marked price, it is difficult to say whether anyone will buy it, even if the quality of her spirit melon is much higher than that of these melon sellers, but after all, not everyone knows the goods.

But if she follows the trend and sets up a stall at the price of thirty catties of a spirit stone, she is not without profit, but in that case, the profit is not very high, based on the output of only half an acre of land in the jade pendant space, even if all the spirit melons are planted, the spirit stones obtained from the sale are not enough to keep up with her growing demand for spirit stones.

In the future, taking the elixir for cultivation every day without interruption is a huge consumption.

Not to mention that Hua Ying still has her own plans to open a furnace for alchemy, and the source of spirit grass that needs to be consumed in the early stage of practice will be a huge amount of spirit stone demand.

"It seems that selling melons is not possible, and we have to think of other ways." After making up her mind, Hua Ying decided to give up planting spirit melons.

Half an acre of spiritual land is really not enough, she still has to set aside some places to plant spiritual grass and cordyceps, and there is no extra land to distribute to spiritual melons. If the spirit melon can't be sold at a high price here, then there is no need to continue planting.

"Ugh."

Take advantage of the excitement and return with the defeat.

Hua Ying sighed, and had to go to the market again to see if there was any other way to make money.

This Ancient Moon Immortal City is so big, there should be many strange things.

Then she wandered around the stall market for half a day, looking for many stalls, and finally came to the stall of a young monk.

Hua Ying pointed to the things on the youth stall and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what kind of seeds are you selling here?" ”

"It's all some spirit gourd spirit fruit seeds, oh yes, there are dozens of star condensation grass seeds, do you want them?" The young monk glanced at the visitor and said casually.

Hua Ying was startled when she heard this, her eyes widened, and she immediately confirmed with the other party: "Star Condensation Grass Seed? Do you have the seeds of the Star Grass here? ”

"Yes, there are dozens of pills, my brother brought them back yesterday from collecting medicine in the mountains, if you want to pack them and buy them, you can be considered cheaper."

The young monk originally just mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect Hua Ying to really buy this spirit grass seed, so he casually took out a small gray cloth bag from the side and threw it in front of Hua Ying.

She opened the cloth bag and looked at it, and sure enough, she found dozens of grass seeds the size of sesame seeds inside.

"Is that all? Is there more? Hua Ying secretly rejoiced, but on the surface she remained silent, pretending to ask calmly.

"There are so many, just these dozens of grains are hard to find. Fellow Daoist, you don't know, wild spirit grass rarely bears seeds, it is difficult to meet someone to sell it in our stall market for ten days and half a month, you are lucky to meet me today, and you may be bought by someone else later. ”

As he spoke, the young monk suddenly glanced at Hua Ying, and saw that she only had a fourth-level Qi cultivation and did not look like she was very rich, and couldn't help but start to doubt her purpose.

"Fellow Daoist, are you really planning to buy this spirit grass seed? We can't afford to wrap up the spiritual field when we are scattered, how can we have the ability to plant spiritual grass. Even the ordinary spirit plant family will only grow some ordinary spirit gourd spirit fruits, this kind of spirit grass is only cultivated by those monk families with deep background, and most of the wild spirit grass seeds on the market are only bought by them."
