Chapter 0011: Cai's Shopkeeper's Entrustment
"Xiao Zuo, now that you've made a lot of money, I think you can't look down on the part-time job of fifteen yuan per hour, I don't know what your plans are in the future. Shopkeeper Cai asked as he slowly fiddled with the lid of the teacup.
Seriously, Zuo Feng did have the idea of not wanting to do it anymore, but he didn't know how to mention it to the shopkeeper, after all, the shopkeeper's words yesterday were still in his ears. Although the number of 6.72 million is very large, as a poor dick, he doesn't know how to spend the money. I just turned my head and thought about it, this money came too quickly, and in the final analysis, it was because I was a monk. The experience of these two days made him deeply understand the huge gap between monks and mortals, and he only had to infuse a few rays of vitality to make mortals flock to him.
So Zuo Feng wanted to focus more on cultivation, and he had a hunch that something big would happen in Guicheng recently, although there would be danger, it would also be an opportunity for him. After all, all of his cognition of the cultivation and cultivation realm was completely based on the Void Sutra and the Void Sutra Miscellaneous, all of which were basic things, and they were too narrow. Zuo Feng wanted to fly, wanted to practice all kinds of mysterious spells, and he had all kinds of strange reveries in his mind, but he couldn't enter it.
"Shopkeeper, what advice do you have?" Zuo Feng acquiesced.
"Xiao Zuo, look at this room full of jade porcelain calligraphy and paintings, how much do you guess it is worth?" Shopkeeper Cai didn't answer, and pointed to the surrounding shelves and asked Zuo Feng.
"I'm afraid it will cost hundreds of millions. Zuo Feng replied uncertainly.
"Haha, not so much! There are only a few pieces in our store that can really be called antiques, and other pottery, porcelain, calligraphy and painting are all new products that I have collected in the past few decades, and most of their creators are only a little famous, and the appreciation space driven by fame is actually not much. Although each piece seems to me to be a fine product, but antiques, except for some works of some famous artists in history, everyone else has their own opinions. You know no, if you sell these things at the market price of the raw materials, the whole store will not exceed five million. Shopkeeper Cai stretched out his palm, and his five fingers were spread and swayed.
"What do you mean, shopkeeper?" asked Zuo Feng.
"Then I'll make it clear, do you want to take over this antique shop?" Shopkeeper Cai looked at Zuo Feng, took a sip of tea, and said, "I'm getting older and older, and I've been feeling powerless to do things recently. My wife and children have settled abroad, and now I don't have any relatives around me, but as I get older, I feel more and more precious family affection. In fact, I have long had the idea of transferring this store out, and I also went to the United States to tease my grandchildren with my wife and grandchildren. But ah, I have been operating this store for more than 30 years, and the capital is firmly trapped, and my wife is awkward with me because of this, and I went to the United States a while ago. Don't look at me paying your salary so happily, in fact, the landlord's family has no surplus grain, it's just that my Lao Cai's signboard has been ringing for so many years, and I just abide by some rules. I'm going to have a chance to get out today, so I'd like to transfer this shop to you, think about it. ”
Shopkeeper Cai's words Zuo Feng believes that he has often seen the news that someone has invested all his salary in the collection and has led to poverty, and looking at the more than 100 ornaments on the shelves of this store, I am afraid that he will have to continue to invest.
Zuo Feng thought about it for a while, if he was the boss, then he would be free in time, and there was no conflict with cultivation, so he said: "Of course I want to, but I'm afraid this store is not cheap." ”
"The price is negotiable, my Lao Cai found that Xiao Zuo is a person with great luck, I can completely trust you, we have a variety of ways to solve it. Let's talk about this land first, 65 square meters, when I bought it more than 30 years ago, it was only 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, and now the market price has reached more than 4 million. There is just a shortcoming, the business district behind this has been established and developed, and the surrounding corners are scattered with a few private lands, and a few of our old guys have insisted on not selling, and there will be no large-scale development here in the future. As for the advantages here, you can see it after two days of coming, so I won't say more. ”
"I mean, I'll give you 5 million yuan for the land and shop, and then I'll take some of the antiques, and I'll hand over the purchase channels to you, let's calculate the money separately, what do you think?" ”
Zuo Feng's hesitation is not because of the price, to be honest, he thinks that he can make money no matter what, although Gude is located on the edge of the city center, but it is close to the Li River, although it is not a prosperous area, there are many tourists, such a flow is enough for him.
"Shopkeeper, I don't have any objection to the price, but I want to ask, why are you so good to me?" This is where Zuo Feng hesitates, Cai Shopkeeper has been in business for more than 30 years, and he must not worry about the buyer if he wants to sell, but he wants to change hands to Zuo Feng.
"If you don't ask, I'm going to say it, what do you think of my dress first?" shopkeeper Cai smiled when he heard this, and then pointed to his clothes and asked.
"It's quite ancient. Zuo Feng became even more hesitant after hearing this.
"In our line of work, we have seen a lot of strange things dealing with some antiquities all day long, and according to today's words, most people are a little superstitious. You don't believe it, I have an inexplicable good impression when I see you for the first time, you have sold things so quickly in the past two days, my Lao Cai really believes that you have great luck and are blessed by fate. Shopkeeper Cai got up and turned around, twisting his beard, "That's the reason, firstly, I really want to retire from Lao Cai, and secondly, I will also touch your blessings." ”
Superstition? Zuo Feng has long denied this word, and after listening to the shopkeeper's words, he has become down-to-earth.
"Okay!"
"Well, I'll be out of business for the next few days, put everything in place, take away what should be taken away. On the 7th, you come over again, we will discuss and discuss, and when the 8th is closed, we will complete all the formalities directly on the same day. You go back now, you should inquire, and then you can negotiate the price, or that sentence, Tong Suo is not bullied!"
"Okay, shopkeeper, I will take the necklace beads on the counter and sell them all, now there are a lot of tourists in our school, I just counted, a total of 109 pieces, you give a price." "Actually, Zuo Feng's target is those bead strings, I'm afraid there are still spirit stones or something.
"Take it, just give me half of the price of each piece, come over on the seventh and say, there are some green leaf-shaped jade materials in the middle, it just arrived, I haven't had time to weave the rope, 800 pieces, take them away!"
In this way, Zuo Feng returned to the villa on Biyan Island with a box of jewelry.
Pouring everything on the bed, Zuo Feng picked out all the obsidian strings and injected them into the vitality test one by one, but none of the beads turned into spirit stones.
"It's a big loss. Zuo Feng's face was cloudy, he thought he could pick up a leak or something, but he didn't know anything.
Zuo Feng was not reconciled, and tried all the other types, although no spirit stone appeared, but Zuo Feng made an unexpected discovery. After those leaf-type ice jadeites were injected with vitality, all the floating greens were precipitated out and turned into glass species, and the maximum amount of spiritual energy they could hold was more than ten times that of jade of the same size, which meant that it had initially reached the level of spiritual materials, and it could be engraved with formation runes on it.
Spiritual materials are a general term for various raw materials that can be used to refine artifacts, and they rarely carry certain characteristics, and then monks can use this characteristic to refine artifacts of various functions, including magic weapons, magic weapons, spiritual runes, etc.
The glass jadeite can also be regarded as a spiritual material because of its ability to hold a large amount of vitality. Zuo Feng simply poured all the more than thirty leaf-type ice jadeites with vitality, turning them into glass jade. He was going to use these glass jadeites to practice his hands and make some talismans so that he could improve his formation runes and refining skills.
Refining is a very comprehensive project, which not only requires the strength of vitality and divine consciousness, but also determines the comprehension of runes and formations, and more importantly, requires the accumulation of a lot of experience.
It is recorded in the Void Sutra that there is a low-level defensive formation called "Little Jin Luo Array", after Zuo Feng portrays him on the glass jade infused with vitality, the jade will have the function of a small Jin Luo array, which can release a halo to resist a certain degree of damage attack.
However, Zuo Feng has more important things to do at the moment, when he practiced the Returning to Mortal Decision in the morning, he was already familiar with the method of passivating the Yuan Qi and inverting the phase, and it could be used to ban the spirit stone so that its spiritual energy would not leak out. So he decided to try the remaining seventeen obsidian beads to see if they were spirit stones.
As expected, a moment later, Zuo Feng's sheets were neatly lined with colorful medium-grade spirit stones, three each of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and only two milky white attributeless spirit stones remained.
"I don't know how much the mid-grade spirit stones in the cultivation realm are worth now, so let's use them to improve my cultivation first, but I have to set aside six spirit stones with different attributes, just in case. If you look at the doubling of the dantian space for each layer of cultivation that is raised, with yesterday's experience, you can almost cultivate to the sixth layer of the Yang Yuan Realm. Zuo Feng unconsciously pinched his chin and thought, "Seal them first." ”
Picked a golden spirit stone and put it in the palm of his hand, Zuo Feng used his vitality to surround it, and then used it to return to the mortal decision. Unexpectedly, the golden spirit stone converged all the visions and turned into an inconspicuous ordinary golden stone, and it was originally a black obsidian bead, Zuo Feng tried to observe it with his divine sense, but he couldn't see it, so he guessed that it was the difference of the method.
