Out of Wang's rice shop, Meng Zhou went to find Wu Tong again.

When the other party saw him, his whole face was squeezed with a smile.

But what Meng Zhou said made him stunned when he was full of anticipation.

"What? You don't buy runes? Want to buy refining materials instead? ”

Wu Tong really wanted to say, I am a seller of talisman materials, when did you see me selling refining materials?

He was about to say no, but Meng Zhou's next words blocked the words he wanted to shirk in his throat.

"What I want to buy is all wood-based spiritual materials, nothing else.

In addition, I will pay you 10% of the fee as a reward. ”

After making the request, seeing that Wu Tong stayed there and didn't speak, Meng Zhou asked, "How is it, will you take this job?" ”

Wu Tong suddenly came to his senses, and quickly nodded in agreement: "Pick up, pick up, of course I want to take it!" ”

The production of rune materials also requires spiritual materials, but they are mainly concentrated in the two pieces of various wood-based spiritual materials and the blood, bones, and fur of demon beasts.

This is the only thing he can do.

The spiritual materials required for refining weapons cover a much larger range than this, and a large part of them are concentrated in various spiritual minerals.

It is to refine wood-based magic weapons, or use the remains of demon beasts as raw materials to refine some special magic weapons, and some high-quality mineral spiritual materials are also essential.

And he has no channels for these.

It's not that he can't buy it, but that's the normal market price, what's the point of him going through this hand?

But the other party said that the materials needed were all wood-based spiritual materials, didn't this coincide with the resources he could access?

What's more, the transaction price is 10% of the remuneration!

It's just a string in between.

It's a big fool not to say yes quickly!

After agreeing, Wu Tongcai immediately asked for some more specific information, such as what kind of spiritual material it is, its quality level, and so on.

Meng Zhou thought for a moment and asked, "Now, what can you get for me?" ”

He only needed the wood-based spiritual material that contained rich spirituality, and as for which one it was and what its quality level was, he didn't care too much.

If you really want to say that, just like when he went to the Treasure Pavilion to buy a magic sword, he hoped that the characteristics of the spiritual material would be simpler and not contain too many unique attributes, that is, the most popular and ordinary spiritual material in the general evaluation.

Wu Tong thought about it carefully, reported the names of the five kinds of wood-based spiritual materials, and after thinking about it, Meng Zhou said the answer in his heart: "Qinglingmu." ”

This was the one he most expected, which was a pure wood-based spirit material with no other additional characteristics.

In the evaluation of other refiners, it is "mediocre" and "mediocre", but in his case, it is the most cost-effective.

"Wait for me for half an hour......" Wu Tong was about to turn around, but suddenly stopped, and said a little sneeringly: "Can Your Excellency go with me?" ”

Meng Zhou was not afraid of what tricks he played, so he followed directly.

Wu Tong also explained the reason, he pressed too many spirit stones on the raw materials of the rune material, and there were not enough spirit stones in his hand to complete the transfer of green spirit wood, so he could only be a central recommendation now.

Speaking of this, he looked at Meng Zhou, and asked with some expectation and some nervousness: "Don't you buy runes this time?" ”

Meng Zhou shook his head, there was no shortage of rune materials in his hands now, excluding the rune materials purchased in the True Rune Pavilion and harvested in the Zhou Quan Storage Bag, just here in Wu Tong, the total number of runes purchased was more than three thousand.

Although many of them have been turned into high-quality cleaning talismans and light talismans sealed in the spirit sealing box, he still has no shortage of talisman materials to use in a short period of time, so naturally there is no need to rush to continue to buy.

Seeing him shake his head, Wu Tong's face immediately became ugly.

Meng Zhou guessed that last time he spent nearly five hundred spirit stones to buy two thousand and one hundred runes from him, he himself could not have so many stocks, many of them should have been transferred from his peers, and the profits were not completely left in his hands.

Having learned the lesson of the last time, he pressed more goods in his hands and waited for himself to come to the door again.

If there is no big customer like himself to take over, relying on the stall alone, it may not be possible to clear it all in a month or two.

Although he had his own reasons for taking this step, Meng Zhou didn't feel guilty at all, but said:

"There were too many runes I bought last time, and I will wait for a while for the next purchase."

Hearing this, Wu Tong's face softened slightly, at least, there was still hope for "next time".

Wu Tong led Meng Zhou into an alley, came to a small courtyard, and knocked on the door.

Soon, a middle-aged monk with a lot of frost on his face opened the door, his gaze swept over the two of them, and finally fell on Wu Tong, asking:

"Wu Tong, is there something wrong with me?"

Wu Daodao: "Chen Daoyou, I know that you have a green spirit wood in your hand, so I came here to take a look." ”

When the middle-aged monk surnamed Chen heard this, he first looked at him, then at Meng Zhou on the side, and stepped aside and said, "Come in." ”

in the living room.

A piece of spirit wood was placed on the wooden table.

This piece of spirit wood is nearly three feet tall and about two feet in diameter.

The cross-section is very smooth, as if a sword had been cut from an entire tree.

There are clear traces of growth rings on the cross-section of the spirit wood, and the more you go to the center, the darker the color, and the center is about a little area as thick as a baby's finger, and the color is a rich emerald green, like a jade wood heart inlaid into the center of the tree.

Meng Zhou and Wu Tong watched the spirit wood carefully, and Wu Tong also talked to the monk surnamed Chen: "I only knew that you had a green spirit wood before, but I didn't know that it was so good. ”

The monk surnamed Chen didn't get close to him, but just said lightly:

"I've found someone to identify it, and the area in the heart of this wood tree already has the quality of a first-order high-grade, and a large area around it is also a first-order medium-grade quality.

It's okay to say that my Qingling Wood is only sold as a whole, not divided! ”

Wu Tong glanced at Meng Zhou, and then said to the monk surnamed Chen, "Let's discuss it." ”

"Yes, call me after we have discussed it." The monk surnamed Chen nodded, put away the green spirit wood and went to the back room, leaving the living room for the two of them.

Wu Tong sent a message to Meng Zhou:

"I know why he had to sell it whole, and this thing kept smashing in his hands again."

"Why?" Meng Zhou was also curious about this.

"Because more than seventy percent of his green spirit wood is only of low-grade quality, nearly thirty percent is medium-grade quality, and only the center of the tree is high-grade.

However, the amount was too small to be used as the main material of a first-order high-grade magic weapon, and could only be used as an auxiliary material.

In this way, its price is greatly discounted, and it can't even be sold at the price of the first-order middle-grade main material.

Moreover, because of its ordinary characteristics, the price of green spirit wood is low in the same level of spiritual materials, and once it is split, the price of the first-order lower grade green spirit wood with the largest amount will definitely be pressed to a very low level. ”

"Makes sense." Meng Zhou nodded when he heard this.

After saying this, Wu Tong looked at Meng Zhou: "Do you still need it?" ”

Meng Zhou thought for a while: "How many spirit stones do you expect to be able to take?" ”

Wu Tong thought for a moment and said, "No more than 400 lower-grade spirit stones." ”

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Buy it!" ”

The ledger in Meng Zhou's heart was like this, the first-order low-grade green spirit wood was probably equivalent to two copies of the main material of the magic weapon, and there was still a certain amount left, even if the price of the green spirit wood was low in the same grade spirit material, the price of 80 to 120 was a reasonable range.

The first-order medium-grade green spirit wood is just equivalent to a complete medium-grade magic weapon main material, and it is very reasonable between 100 and 160.

The highest-quality tree heart, but because it is not complete, it cannot be used as the main material of the first-order high-grade magic weapon, and he can accept it between 150 and 200.

As long as the total price does not exceed 450 lower-grade spirit stones, he can accept it.

Moreover, after seeing this piece of green spirit wood, he still had an idea in his heart, that is, to make a control group of similar spiritual materials of different qualities with each other, and see what kind of spiritual material was the most cost-effective to "feed" the rope spirit.

With Meng Zhou's promise, Wu Tong summoned the middle-aged monk surnamed Chen out and launched fierce negotiations with him.

Although the monk surnamed Chen bit very tightly and did not let go of his mouth, he couldn't stand Wu Tong's precise selection of every question and pointed to the point.

The price also changed from the fixed price of 500 lower-grade spirit stones for a monk surnamed Chen, to 350 lower-grade spirit stones by Wu Tong.

After the two reached an agreement, Meng Zhou ordered 350 lower-grade spirit stones and handed them to the middle-aged monk surnamed Chen, and put this large piece of green spirit wood in the storage bag.

After leaving the small courtyard of the monk surnamed Chen and coming to the street outside, Meng Zhou directly took 40 spirit stones and handed them to Wu Tong.

Wu Tong hurriedly said: "It's a lot, that is, according to the original agreement, you can give me 35, what's more, I will match it in the middle, it's really not worth so much." ”

As he spoke, he took twenty and wanted Meng Zhou to take back the remaining twenty spirit stones, but Meng Zhou forcibly stuffed his hand and said:

"Since you have made an appointment in advance, then come as agreed.

Moreover, it is good that you can take the initiative to help me lower the price of the other party without considering personal gains.

As long as you can always maintain this heart, you will never suffer a loss with me! ”

When the two finally separated, Wu Tongna was grateful and grateful.

Then, Meng Zhou spent ten lower grade spirit stones to buy some books such as the Spiritual Material Illustrated Book and the Collection of Spiritual Materials in the Wild, and he planned to learn about it carefully, so that he could formulate recipes for the "Rope Spirit" in the future.

"Finally there are spirit stones."

When he walked out of the bazaar, looking at the balance of 445 in the storage bag plus the 300 of the income from the consultation fee, a total of 745 lower-grade spirit stones, Meng Zhou chuckled in his heart.

A few times before, every time he made a purchase, he spent all the spirit stones in his pocket, and there was not a single one left.

……

When he returned to the Zaoban Pavilion, Meng Zhou had already changed back to the image of Pharmacist Zhou.

Passing by the business hall of the Zaoban Hall, he was about to go back to the stone room where he was meditating, when suddenly a voice stopped him.

"Pharmacist Zhou."

Meng Zhou was stunned, followed the sound, and the whole person immediately froze there.

I saw an old man with crane hair and a childish face, who looked like a fairy wind dao bone cultivator in the minds of mortals, and walked towards him slowly.

The old man saw Meng Zhou's eyes staring at him without blinking, his expression was calm, and he seemed to be used to seeing such a scene.

He smiled heartily and greeted again: "Pharmacist Zhou, the old man is polite here!" ”

Meng Zhou was awakened by his greeting, and hurriedly said apologetically: "I'm sorry, who are you?" ”

The old man smiled: "The old man's surname is Hu Minggui, and he is the proprietor of the Forgotten Pavilion." ”

Meng Zhou's face was full of shock and said, "You are the proprietor of the Sitting Forgetting Pavilion?" I've been here for a long time, and I'm actually ...... This is really surprising. ”

The old man explained: "The old man has always lived in the bazaar, and this place has always been taken care of by the people below.

Isn't this the latest upset of the Professionals' Association......"

Speaking of this, he seemed to realize that the person in front of him was a professional, and hurriedly laughed: "I just ran back to hide from Qingjing." ”

He pulled Meng Zhou to chat very warmly for a while, and finally, he also revealed that there was a junior who had a dark illness and wanted to ask him to help diagnose and treat him.

Meng Zhou did not refuse directly as he did when facing Zhou Quan, but bowed his head and said:

"Of course you can, just let him go to Yu Peng's stone room next time he is treated...... Yu Peng, you know, right? ”

The old man shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't want to know, if people know that Chu Zheng's disciples live here for a long time, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit in the Forgotten Pavilion." ”

Finally, the old man thanked him and left.

Meng Zhou stood in place for a moment, and then returned to his stone room.

It wasn't until the stone gate was closed, the formation was opened, and the inside and outside were isolated, that the heartbeat finally beat uncontrollably.

The emotions in my heart at this moment, turning over the river and the sea, are not enough to describe its intensity.

This old man who called himself Hu Gui was actually the person who gave him the Blood Demon Skill in the memory of the previous master.

He left Jade Lake to warm the Cloud Valley, and he chose a place to settle down at random, and the proprietor behind him was actually him!

The other party seems to be accustomed to being the shopkeeper, if it weren't for the indiscriminate turmoil caused by the birth of the Professional Association to let him run back to hide Qingjing, he would never know that there was such a layer of cause and effect with him.

And the professional associations were originally promoted by themselves.

Streamlining it a little, isn't this the other party being pushed in front of him under the waves set off by himself?

Such a coincidence?

What kind of fate is this?!
