Chapter 493: Unexpectedly Fast Defeat (Third Update)
North of Jingzhou, Jiayu City.
Jiayu City, like Jinyun Valley, is also one of the more than thirty open trading markets in the monastic world. The earliest news of the signs of shortage of medicinal herbs for refining Zhengyi Dan came to Wang Minglou from here.
Jiayu City is just a town artificially built by cultivators, dozens of acres in a square area, just an ordinary maze is set up outside, this maze is only effective on the people on the ground, as long as it can fly up to a height of 100 zhang, this maze will no longer play any role, but it is obviously impossible for mortals who are not cultivators to fly in the sky, so only cultivators can enter Jiayu City, if there are mortals who strayed into this maze, after turning for most of the day, they will also be turned back to the same place.
Wang Minglou, who was dressed in a black robe, was carefully flipping through some transaction lists in the inner room of a shop set up in Sanqing Dandao in Jiayu City at this moment.
After meeting with Ge Qingteng, the young man who controlled all the transactions of Sanqing Dandao immediately rushed to Jiayu City.
Cats have cat roads, snakes have snake roads, and a person walks through the place, there will always be traces of this person, business is a long time, naturally will establish a lot of fixed roads, this Jiayu City, is the place where the most shipments of Zhengyidan of Sanqing Dan Road. And when many sects want to buy Zhengyidan, they also form a habit, and many will come to Jiayu City to buy it.
Wang Minglou's cultivation is not high, only the cultivation of the middle stage of Jindan, originally with his qualifications, if he didn't spend most of his time every day on these transactions of Sanqing Dandao, he may have already broken through to the cultivation of the late stage of Jindan.
In the cultivation world, a person's cultivation is a symbol of identity and power, but at this moment, facing a large number of transaction lists and some things that need his approval, Wang Minglou did not have the slightest complaint in his heart, on the contrary, there was an unusually solemn and solemn look on his face.
In fact, after meeting Ge Qingteng, when Wang Minglou was doing this, he knew in his heart what he was doing.
Because these are the true foundations of a denomination!
Because of what he has done, he has made the Sanqing Dan Dao stronger little by little, and even if his cultivation stops, it is nothing.
When he went to see Ge Qingteng, Wang Minglou had indeed vaguely guessed who had the ability to make the price of Zhengyidan rise by two percent in two days. But Wang Minglou felt that he and Sanqing Dandao never needed to think about whose side they were on.
Because the actions of the Sanqing Dan Dao have always been very simple, they do not interfere in the disputes in the cultivation world, they are just alchemists, and they are just real businessmen.
No matter which sect rules the world, there is always a sect that refines pills.
In Wang Minglou's view, the foundation is slowly accumulated, at least in these decades, there will be the most stable guarantee for trading with Kunlun, and there is no need to consider whose side to change for some short-term interests.
Everything is built on profit.
"What's going on?"
Sanqing Dandao is one of the largest alchemy sects in the cultivation world. However, unlike other alchemy sects, the Sanqing Dan Dao has always won by refining the number of pills, and in the refining of the pills that are consumed a lot in many cultivation circles, the Sanqing Dan Dao has many unique features, not only the quality is good, but the quantity is also very large.
Therefore, although many sects have Zhengyi Dan's refining pill formula, among the Zhengyi Dan on the market before, the Sanqing Dan Dao accounted for at least fifty percent of the share.
In this way, even if it is also a great alchemy faction, if something happens to Zhengyidan, it will naturally have the greatest impact on the Sanqing Dandao, and it can even be said to be the main foundation of the Sanqing Dandao.
What Wang Minglou is looking at now is the list of Zhengyidan transactions recently.
The things promised by Ge Qingteng have reached the hands of Sanqing Dandao through various channels, and after Wang Minglou and Ge Qingteng completed the negotiation, the Zhengyi Dan of Sanqing Dandao was sold according to the agreed price half a percent higher than the original price. This price is one and a half times lower than the price of Zhengyidan on the market.
From these lists, Wang Minglou can see that at the beginning, Zhengyidan's transaction was indeed the same as he imagined, because the price was much lower than the Zhengyidan price on the market, which immediately caused a rush to the general transaction.
However, the trading list of the last half day shows that the trading volume of Zhengyidan has dropped significantly, and even less than one-fifth of the trading volume before the accident, which is definitely an extremely abnormal thing.
The usual transaction figures can be said to be familiar to Wang Minglou, so Wang Minglou doesn't need to look at it a second time. After reading these lists, Wang Minglou stood up with a little pale face, but before he could make any movements, a middle-aged man in a silver robe had already walked in.
This middle-aged man in a silver robe was the first person to send a message to Wang Minglou, and the person in charge of the transaction of Sanqing Dandao was second only to Wang Minglou, Xia Mingda.
Xia Mingda's face was also very ugly, and as soon as he walked in, he didn't say anything, he stretched out his hand and handed a white porcelain bottle containing several pills to Wang Minglou.
Wang Minglou seemed to have some premonition, his eyelids jumped violently, and he didn't speak, but opened the white porcelain bottle, poured out one of the cyan pills, looked at it for a moment, and then swallowed it directly into his stomach.
As soon as he swallowed this cyan pill, in an instant, Wang Minglou's face immediately changed completely, and he looked at Xia Mingda in a silver robe and asked, "What kind of pill is this, and where did it come from?"
"Now in various markets, this elixir is called Baoyuan Dan. Xia Mingda said with a gloomy face, "Now no one knows where these pills come from, but overnight, many shops in various markets have sold them, and the quantity is very large. ”
Wang Minglou's body shook, and his breath seemed to be blocked in his chest all of a sudden, and his whole body was cold, but that breath was always blocked, although he had already thought of the result in his heart, he still couldn't help but ask a little distractedly, "What is the price of this elixir?"
Xia Mingda took a deep breath, and after a while, he slowly replied: "The price is one percent higher than our current Zhengyidan price." ”
As soon as Xia Mingda's words came out, Wang Minglou only felt a bang, his brain was blank, and the white porcelain bottle fell from his hand, shattered, and rolled out the remaining three cyan pills.
......
Wang Minglou and Xia Mingda were people of the Sanqing Dan Dao, and even if they were not specialized alchemists, their sense of the medicinal properties and ingredients of ordinary pills was far stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.
At this moment, the cyan pill called Baolong Dan is basically the same as Zhengyidan, that is to say, the main herb used to refine this Baolong Pill and the main herb used to refine Zhengyidan are the same.
Moreover, after Wang Minglou took this pill, he also confirmed his judgment, the effect of this pill is the same as that of Zhengyi Dan, it can clear the valley and strengthen the body.
But right now, inside this cyan pill, I don't know if it is because some other herbs have been added, or because of the difference in refining techniques, the medicinal properties of the pill are more than twice as strong as Zhengyi Dan.
This is not a dragon pill at all, in fact, it is a Zhengyi Dan that has been improved at all.
However, taking one of these pills is equivalent to taking at least two or more Zhengyi pills. Moreover, the price of this pill is only one percent higher than that of Zhengyidan.
Such pills are flooded in various trading markets, how can Zhengyi Dan still be able to sell it.
At present, in various markets, Zhengyidan still has some trading volume, but when this elixir is known to all cultivators, Zhengyidan may not be able to sell even one!
Obviously, this elixir is also specifically aimed at Zhengyidan, but now Wang Minglou has no way.
Because Wang Minglou and Ge Qingteng had all miscalculated before, they only thought that the other party was going to use large-scale financial resources to monopolize all of a sudden, seek some benefits, and fight a price war, but the other party was actually ready for such an elixir!
Wang Minglou can be sure at this moment that the cost of the extra ingredients in this Baolong Pill will not be very high, otherwise it would not be possible for the quantity to be so amazing.
In other words, if it is sold at the current price of Baolongdan, the other party will already have some profits.
Sanqing Dandao has many pills that are stronger than this Baolong Pill, and with the strength of Sanqing Dandao, large-scale refining is not a difficult task, but the key is that even if the efficacy of those pills is several times higher than that of Baolong Dan, the cost will be several times higher than that of Baolong Dan.
Unless it is the Sanqing Dan Dao that can imitate the Baolong Pill, but the composition and heat of the Dan have changed slightly, and it is very difficult to deduce the Dan prescription from the Dan Medicine, Wang Minglou can be sure in his heart at this moment that even if the Dan prescription is researched, maybe the rest of the herbs in the Baolong Pill have also been controlled by the other party.
In other words, even if Sanqing Dandao and Kunlun wanted to crush their opponents regardless of their losses, they were now completely defeated!
......
......
"Click"
Three days later, in the Huang Feng Mausoleum, a cyan teacup was crushed in Ge Qingteng's hand.
After a moment of silence with a gloomy face, he handed a small parchment roll to one of his Kunlun disciples in the shop.
Then this Kunlun disciple wrapped himself in an ordinary gray robe, and like many ordinary cultivators in the Huangfeng Tomb, he wore a black face and went out of the Huangfeng Tomb.
Within three days after the appearance of the Baolong Pill, Ge Qingteng had even resorted to the means of injuring 1,000 enemies and injuring 800 himself, and wantonly purchased the Baolong Pill, because in Ge Qingteng's opinion, the pill of Baolong Dan was always useful, and Kunlun also had enough strength to hoard the Baolong Pill. He didn't believe that the Baolong Pill could be refined endlessly, as long as the Baolong Pill was almost acquired, Zhengyi Dan would still have a market.
And after hoarding most of the Baolong Pill in hand, the price of Baolong Dan will definitely rise, and when Ge Qingteng ships it all at once, there will be no loss.
In the past three days, the power controlled by Ge Qingteng has been completely reflected, he has hoarded an astonishing amount of Baolong Pill in his hands, and there are no large quantities of Baolong Pill on the market in various trading markets, but just when he thought that he had almost hoarded it, in almost all the trading markets, a new pill appeared, Tianbi Dan!
This elixir is half as strong as the Baolong Pill in terms of the effect of Bigu and strengthening the body, and it also has some slightly replenishing the effect of true yuan.
The grade of such an elixir is one level higher than that of Baolong Pill, but the ingredients are not much different from Baolong Pill, and the price is only slightly higher.
As soon as this elixir comes out, who will buy Baolong Dan?
The astonishing amount of Dragon Holding Pill that Ge Qingteng had hoarded in his hand was completely crushed to death in his hand.
With Kunlun's strength, Ge Qingteng's losses this time were not unbearable, but the confrontation between the past few days had already made Ge Qingteng understand that now with his own strength, he couldn't fight Luobei at all.
Obviously, there is a great master of Dan Dao on the side of Luobei, at least the Sanqing Dan Dao and other sects, which cannot be compared.
Therefore, Ge Qingteng sent someone to send news back to Kunlun, first, to see if his Kunlun research Dan Dao master could suppress the Dan Dao master in Luobei. The second is to ask Kunlun to send people to eliminate the forces of some Luobei and others who are active in various trading markets. After all, Ge Qingteng only controls the deal, and he wants to fight and assassinate, but he doesn't have much strength at hand.
And at this moment, when he reluctantly admitted that he was defeated by Luo Bei's men and sent the news back to ask for help, what Ge Qingteng couldn't understand in his heart was that since he had already used a magic weapon like the Broken Void God Bow... Why didn't you kill Luo Bei sooner? Why haven't you heard about this magic weapon recently?
