Chapter 229: Make money!

After breakfast the next day, Shen Yun went out to buy cinnabar ink. Familiar with the way, he didn't ask Lao Luo to drive again.

The backstreets are as lively as yesterday. However, the bustle of the street has nothing to do with the shop called "Four Seas Incense Candle Shop". The latter is still a snub.

Thinking of the silver ticket that he spent five thousand taels in that shop all at once yesterday, Shen Yun didn't worry about people's livelihood at all.

The shopkeeper is not there. Only buddy Ah Cheng.

"Cinnabar ink? Yes, yes. "There is a saying, once born, two times ripe. This time, Ah Cheng didn't say anything like "only selling regular customers", asked him to sit in front of the window for a while, went straight to the inner room, and came out with a fist-sized shallow green jade bowl in one hand, "Little brother, look at it, there are two kinds of ink in the store, which one do you want to choose?"

Shen Yun took the two jade bowls and looked at them carefully in his hands. The oil in the bowl in the left hand is moist and red, like clotted fat, with a pale golden luster. In terms of quality, it is no worse than purple gold cinnabar ink, and the bowl in his right hand looks like a fine blood jade, and the surface is covered with a layer of pink halo. At first glance, you can see that the quality is better than in the left-hand bowl.

Through yesterday's drawing, he has gained experience in the selection of materials, that is, when buying rune paper and the like, it is not to choose the best quality, but to choose the right one. Taking cinnabar ink as an example, with his current ability, the quality of the purple gold cinnabar ink is surpassing, and he may not be able to use it.

"That's it. He put down the jade bowl in his right hand and handed it to Ah Cheng, "How to sell it?"

Ah Chengxin said: Even the good and the bad will not come out, it seems that he is really an errand.

"This is cheap, such a bowl only sells for ten taels of silver. ”

Cheap indeed. It is at least half cheaper than the purple gold cinnabar ink in Shiqiaofang City. Shen Yun nodded, and quickly calculated that after using up thirty knives of rune paper, it would take about fifty bowls.

"I want sixty bowls. He took out three ordinary cowhide water bladders from the treasure bag and placed them on the table, "Please help me pack these inside." ”

Ah Cheng was stunned for a moment: "Really use a cowhide water bladder?" After selling so much cinnabar ink, it was the first time he had met a guest who was packed with an ordinary cowhide water bladder. Even if the golden silkworm blood ink is cheap, it's not such a bad method.

Shen Yun nodded affirmatively: "Yes." "There are a hundred treasure bags, even if you pinch a clay bowl with mud, these cinnabar inks can't be broken for three or two months. He used a cowhide bladder for it, purely because it was more convenient to use.

Okay, you pay, you have the final say. Ah Cheng didn't ask any more questions, picked up three cowhide water bladders and went to the inner room. After a while, he filled them up and came out: "One cowhide bladder is just enough to hold twenty bowls." Fill three bowls, a total of sixty bowls. Little brother check it. ”

Shen Yun opened them one by one to see. That's right, it's glittering gold, and it's indeed cinnabar ink, no doubt - this can't be faked. Because the book says that cinnabar ink sinks when it encounters water, and melts when it encounters oil. In order to prove that what is said in the book is true, he deliberately tested it with the cinnabar ink he made. Indeed it is.

As for the amount, he had already estimated it when he took out the three cowhide water bladders. Just such a shallow small jade bowl, three cowhide bladders can hold exactly sixty bowls.

Waving his sleeves and sweeping the three cowhide water bladders into the treasure bag, he put down six hundred taels of silver ingots with white flowers on the table, said "goodbye" to Ah Cheng, and got up to leave.

No, Ah Cheng hurriedly called out to him: "Uh, little brother, we still accept magic talismans in our store, all kinds of magic talismans." Regardless of rank. Do you sell it?"

Shen Yun's heart beat lightly. Learning talismans is too expensive. According to this usage, the day when the treasure left to him by the Master will eventually run out. To be honest, he was worrying about how to open source - not to mention the five taels of silver in Tiger Yuetang's salary for a month. That idea salary, yes, equal to no. In Xiandu, it is difficult to make a living.

"Oh, I'm going back and ask the Captain. He kept an eye on him, "If there is, come back tomorrow." ”

"Okay. Ah Cheng said: There is no doubt that he must be running errands.

Thinking that it was very likely that he had found a fortune, Shen Yun was excited. When I got home, I immediately meditated and began to draw talismans.

In Shiqiaofang City, he noticed that the price of the same kind of talisman, one grade higher, would be at least five times, and some were even ten times. Therefore, when he was on the road, he thought about it and did not seek more refinement. Only draw blast charms and peace charms, and only sell them from the past.

After changing to a new rune paper and a rune pen, he has a three-to-four-percent chance of producing these two kinds of runes.

Draw for two more hours tonight, and you should be able to get 30 to 40 high-grade talismans. If you follow the price in Shiqiaofang City, you can exchange it for 10,000 taels of silver!

The back street of the Tiandi Temple, the incense candle shop of the four seas.

After the shopkeeper returned from his outing, Ah Cheng reported to him: "Uncle Shi, the little brother from yesterday is here again today." ”

"Oh. He shouldn't have come to buy cinnabar ink this time, right?" the shopkeeper raised an eyebrow.

"You're like a god. He bought sixty copies of the Golden Silkworm Blood Ink. Ah Cheng briefly told what had happened, and at the end, he said, "Uncle, the disciple thought that he was lying. Now it seems that he is indeed running errands for a certain captain. I wonder what the 'Lord Commander' behind him is trying to do when he approaches us?"

No, the shopkeeper picked up the small purple sand teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea, and took a leisurely sip: "What do you want to do so much? Tomorrow, if a 'mortal boy' brings a talisman that is better than the talisman drawn by you, I want to see where your face goes. ”

"Yes. Ah Cheng wilted in an instant, and honestly went back to draw talismans. In his heart, he was very unconvinced: Uncle Shi meant that that mortal boy could draw magic talismans? How could it be! The talisman he took was definitely from the hand of the 'Lord Duwei' behind him. Conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy here. Uncle Shi was not alert at all.

The next day, Shen Yun took forty high-grade blasting charms and peace charms and walked into the "Four Seas Incense and Candle Shop".

This time, the shopkeeper is here. After he personally inspected the forty talismans, he smiled: "Little brother, if there are many talismans like this, the small shop will accept as many as they want." fifty taels of silver each. ”

Ah, so cheap. It was less than 20% of the selling price of Shiqiaofang City. Shen Yun was a little surprised. Soon, though, he reacted – well, it was indeed his greed. This is the immortal capital of immortals, where can it be compared to Shiqiaofang City in the wilderness? Therefore, here, the quality of rune paper, rune pen and cinnabar ink is better, but the price is much lower. Similarly, the price of the talisman will be much lower. What's more, the selling price and the purchase price of the same thing will be much different. Otherwise, what do people eat in their shops?

For him, spending three hours can earn two thousand taels of silver, but the cost is less than one hundred taels...... Hehe, go to rob the road to rob the money, and you have to blacken your face!

"Deal. Shen Yun happily swept the silver of two thousand taels of white flowers into the treasure bag and went out of the Four Seas Incense Candle Shop.

He made an appointment with the shopkeeper that he would come over every ten days to hand in the talismans. At the same time, the shopkeeper also promised that the rune paper, rune pen and cinnabar ink sold to him in the future would be cheaper.
