Chapter 9, Water and Snow, Medium
After a while, in front of the gray-shirted young man's stall, there were only six of the remaining nine lanterns.
After a while, another person bought three in a row, and in an instant, there were only "Peony Pavilion" left in the field, as well as two other light red or light green marquee lanterns "The Legend of the West Chamber" and "The Legend of the White Snake".
However, for the three marquee lamps that everyone wanted to buy the most, the gray-shirted young man shouted out the sky-high price of two hundred stone coins each, which made many people feel a toothache although they were moved.
Two hundred stone coins, which is an astronomical amount for many ordinary people, is by no means something that ordinary people can take out casually.
Even if you can take it, it is obviously not worth it to buy such a lantern with two hundred stone coins, which can only be regarded as a flower lantern for some fun or ornamentation.
Therefore, as soon as the gray-shirted young man spoke, the reaction in the audience became cold, and more people began to hesitate.
However, the three marquees are too amazing, especially the pale yellow marquee, which is so beautiful, between the changes of light and shadow, the axle wheel "bone click" turns, with the story that the gray-shirted young man just told him, but it seems to have a devilish charm, so that everyone is still wandering on the side, and they can't bear to leave.
Seeing this, the gray-shirted young man didn't pay attention to it, smiled slightly, and instead sat up on the spot, calculating the income just now.
There are thirty ordinary lanterns, and seven have been sold, that is, a full two hundred and ten, which is seven times more than all his current net worth.
Looking at the large pile of freshly baked gray stone coins in his arms, the unprecedented satisfaction instantly occupied his heart.
The gray-shirted young man is naturally Tang Gu.
Although he spent a whole day of work to make these ten lanterns, and he was quite confident, he had not been verified after all, and he was still quite apprehensive when he first came.
But after a while, seeing the enthusiasm of the onlookers and the onlookers, he knew that his worries were obviously superfluous.
This novelty, small, but gorgeous and unique thing, because no one has ever seen it, is bound to cause a sensation among everyone.
And now it seems that, sure enough, the policy he chose at the beginning was indeed correct.
Stroking the two hundred and ten graystone coins in his arms, Tang Gu tasted the nouveau riche for the first time.
With the "One Turn Pill", the elixir of the materials required for the "One Turn of the Soul Thought" can almost be gathered, as long as the remaining three lanterns are sold one or two at will, all the problems will be solved.
How could he not be happy when the problem that had haunted him for so long was solved at once? But Tang Gu did not get carried away.
He knew that although two hundred and ten stone coins were a lot, in the eyes of some family clans, they were only the amount of a few pills they usually take, and if they really wanted to rely on these to catch up with those world clan disciples, or even develop steadily all the way, it would be nonsense.
Moreover, these things can no longer be stopped, after today, they will definitely not be so valuable, even if they can be sold for a few more days, when others can already completely imitate them, he can stop it.
There is not a lot of money that can really earn in his hands, and in addition to the "One Turn Dan", in the future, he will advance to the second, third, fourth, and fifth turns...... Which turn, and don't need money?
What's more, now that there is a big money-eater of "Soul Dao Cultivation", it is even more not optimistic.
However, Tang Gu was not particularly worried, once he entered the Qi Dao, he could enter the Martial Academy for free to formally study, and at that time, the disciples of the Martial Academy would have three "Little Jing Yuan Dan" and fifty stone coins every month, and it would naturally be much easier to earn money than now.
Moreover, at that time, as an official disciple of the Martial Academy, Wei Jiu and Du Pengfei, even as the steward and first disciple of the Outer Academy, would never dare to deduct his ration for no reason, otherwise, if he sued the Law Enforcement Palace, he would no longer have the right to speak as a miscellaneous disciple now.
Tang Gu only felt that his heart suddenly relaxed, and all the gloom dissipated, except for ...... The demon eagle turned around, and still didn't think of a way to solve it......
Another hour passed.
However, at this hour, although there were many onlookers in the stall in front of Tang Gu, the remaining three marquees were still not sold, but the crowd gathered more.
Although ordinary lanterns are precious, there are still more people who can afford them, but these three marquee lanterns, because the price of Tanggu is too high, but there are still many inquirers for a while, and there are few people who are willing to buy.
More people pestered Tang Gu to tell the remaining two stories, so Tang Gu told others about the "Legend of the White Snake" and "The Legend of the West Chamber" and the story.
In this way, others stared at the remaining three palace lamps, and naturally became even hotter, finally, there was a person who gritted his teeth and spent money to buy the "White Snake Legend" palace lamp, as for the remaining "Peony Pavilion" and "West Chamber", no one cared.
Seeing this, Tang Gu was talking to the onlookers and telling the story at the same time, but he didn't have the slightest eagerness.
He didn't have to rush at all.
Tonight's city is going to open for a whole night, it's still early, most of the people haven't come yet, the real craze is at the moment when it just enters dusk, and now it's just the beginning.
And just the beginning, eight lanterns have been sold, as for the remaining two, it is the best of the best, Tang Gu believes that there will always be someone who will be discerning and willing to spend money to buy.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the two lanterns to be bought, and the remaining "West Chamber" was also bought, so far, only Zuihou was left with a "Peony Pavilion", and Tang Gu entered the account again in an instant with four hundred gray stone coins.
Now, the graystone coins in his arms, plus the thirty-four and a half savings he had owned, totaled six hundred and forty-four.
For him, a poor boy, this is indeed a huge astronomical amount, and when the "Peony Pavilion" lantern is sold out, this number will skyrocket to more than 840 pieces.
Tang Gu was already imagining how to use this huge wealth after obtaining it, but he didn't expect it, because the extremely hot stall on his side and the selling price of two hundred and one lanterns had caused several ground worms who often fought the autumn wind here to be extremely dissatisfied and red-eyed.
They are usually here, so they collect protection money, and give help to those who have money and shili, and it is good to earn four or five gray stone coins a day.
When they thought that the gray-clothed boy had just been in a few moments, relying on a few papier-mâché lanterns, he had entered six or seven hundred gray stone coins, which was almost half their income for half a year, and they were a little unbalanced.
It was a big man wearing tiger head boots, a big red satin robe, a dark green bat-patterned gold belt tied around his waist, hair like the wind, a majestic figure, and a scar on his face, and a very vicious appearance.
It is said that the scar on his face was left during the battle with the demon beast, and I don't know what he later retreated from the front line of the blood demon and stayed here, and he is a well-known murderer near the entire "floating fence corner".
"Tiger Knife" Qiu three feet.
He took two gray-clothed apprentices, stood in the crowd, stared at the stall on Tang Gu's side for a long time, and saw that he had sold one of the two lanterns of Zuihou, and only Zuihou was left.
After glancing at each other, the three of them understood, and suddenly lined up the crowd and walked towards Tang Gu's stall.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the wolf gang is here to collect protection money, and all stalls have to pay money!" After speaking, he rudely pushed away several old men who were surrounding Tang Gu, stumbling and almost falling.
However, when they saw the people coming, the old men couldn't help but change their faces, and they didn't dare to argue at all, so they hurriedly retreated, like ghosts.
The people around them also "swished", and instantly separated the two sides, and in front of the stall that was originally surrounded by water, a large circle was instantly empty, obviously the notoriety of these three people.
"It's this woe again, why is he here again!"
"Hey, God won't accept him, this little brother is going to be bad, I hope he can bear it, and break the fortune and eliminate the disaster!"
"Being targeted by these people is like a locust sucking blood, and if you don't suck it clean, you won't stop......"
In the crowd, a few people whispered, however, being glared at by the scarred man, he suddenly shuddered, didn't dare to stay any longer, hurriedly hid behind the crowd, and quietly slipped away.
The man with the scar suddenly sneered, if it was usual, he would definitely chase it, but at this time, he naturally couldn't care about it.
He walked in front of Tang Gu, didn't look at the remaining lantern, smiled coldly, stretched out a palm with a thin fan and said to Tang Gu: "Pay the protection fee, give the money!"
"What, protection money!"
Tang Gu remained silent, raised his head, glanced at the man with the scar indifferently and said, "Why didn't I know there was such a rule." ”
"Hey. The man with the scar was happy, and his eyes opened: "I said that there is, there is, set up a stall in this floating fence corner, and dare not pay money to my wolf gang, it has always been the case, five hundred stone coins! Why, if you want to disobey, then don't blame me for smashing your stall!"
"Stone Hundred Stone Coins!"
Tang Gu's eyes flashed slightly, staring at the scarred man and said, "What a big appetite, are you sure you can swallow it?"
"Huh?"
Realizing that his majesty had been provoked, the scar man was completely angry: "Okay, okay, if you don't pay it, then I will beat you to pay it." After speaking, he raised his hand coldly towards the two gray-clothed disciples behind him, and said, "White clouds, black soil, up, until he knows the rules!"
"Yes, Master. ”
Behind him, the two gray-clothed disciples suddenly rushed out like wolves and tigers, pounced in front of Tang Gu's stall, and a left fist was like electricity, striking out from his armpit, straight like a drill, straight to Tang Gu's chest.
The other hand was like a goshawk, and his fingers instantly turned into a piece of blue ink, hitting Tang Gu's back.
"It's all a low-grade martial art, a word electric fist, and eagle crane strength!"
Seeing this, Tang Gu's eyes flashed slightly, no one noticed that under the sleeves, his two fingers moved slightly, and Huo Ran exuded a layer of faint purple, like clouds of smoke, like sword light.
It was he who realized the mysterious swordsmanship on the bluestone tablet of the Martial Academy!
