Chapter 495: Inquiring
After staying for more than twenty hours in Devouring the Abyss, He Miaomiao took the black cang, turned back to his original appearance, and entered the Ghost Forest from the other direction.
Along the way, she relied on her powerful divine sense, avoiding all the monks, and successfully reached the inner perimeter of the forest.
In order to be able to have soul crystals to avoid people's eyes and ears after returning to the city, He Miaomiao also hunted soul beasts for more than ten hours with Wu Cang.
Every time, she sacrificed the fourth-order hidden array disk, exerted all her strength, and quickly hunted a large number of soul crystals.
The soul-nourishing wood is too tempting, and a branch can accommodate the soul inside, which is equivalent to a life-saving thing in a special period.
Not to mention the essence branch, the temptation of soul cultivation is simply irresistible.
She believed that there must be a lot of monks in the city, and they were watching from the shadows.
Every monk who returns from the Ghost Forest will be judged, and if he returns with suspicious whereabouts and too low-key, he will be investigated.
Bring a large number of soul crystals into the city, go to the store and sell them with a swagger, as long as the quantity is right, you can roughly get rid of suspicion.
She didn't plan to take out the Soul Nourishing Wood to check it in the near future, either to go to another city, or wait until time passed and the memories of the monks were cleared.
When I went back from the west gate when I came out, there were already guards sent by the Nine Shadows Hall at the entrance.
After handing over five soul stones each, He Miaomiao and Wu Cang did not stop walking, and did not enter the gray stone house where they lived, but went directly to the Fang Market by the small shade pool.
"You go to sell soul crystals, I'll go around the market, inquire about the market of the pill, and by the way, see if there is a suitable place to open a store. ”
All the soul crystals that He Miaomiao hunted were thrown to Wu Cang for safekeeping, and he could use the soul sac, which was more convenient when trading.
After Wu Cangying got down, he found a nearby magic shop, and He Miaomiao saw him enter, so he turned around and looked for the pill shop.
The first place she entered was called the Stydo, a two-story house built of black stone that was spacious and simple, larger than the other shops.
As soon as she entered the door, a miscellaneous female cultivator in the early stage of soul determination stepped forward and asked with a smile about the elixir she needed.
He Miaomiao did not hide her intentions, after all, the entire Fang City is only so big, and sooner or later she will know about it after opening the store, and hiding her hands and feet now will only make people feel bad in the future.
"To tell you the truth, I'm going to open a shop here, so I'll inquire about the market first. ”
The nun was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then replied with a smile: "Then senior, wait a minute, I'll go and call my shopkeeper." ”
He Miaomiao didn't expect her to be so easy to speak, and after looking at the medicine shelf placed in the hall for a while, she saw a male cultivator in the middle stage of soul determination coming down from upstairs.
"Daoist friends want to open a pill shop nearby?" The male cultivator looked not confused, his tone was easy-going and polite, and he didn't dislike being asked.
Seeing this, He Miaomiao hurriedly hugged her fists and said, "That's true!
"It's okay, since you want to be a neighbor, why bother!" the male cultivator stretched out his hand and pointed to the low table next to him, motioning for her to talk.
The two sat opposite each other, and the male cultivator spoke again: "I am the owner of the Immortal Pill Workshop, what do you call it?"
"Zixuan. He Miaomiao exchanged names with him, and did not rush to inquire about the opening of the store, but pulled it up, "The Daoist friend of the Underworld Force is also an alchemist, right? ”
"Hahaha... Zixuan Daoyou is polite!"
Hearing this, Shen Li felt good in his heart, and when he talked about alchemy, he said more confidently and modestly: "This is my many years of study and practice, and I have achieved today's results, and I am ashamed to say that the effort spent on this is more than cultivation." ”
"Admire and admire, the spirit of Daoyou is worth learning from my generation!" He Miaomiao saw that he was less polite and increased his favor, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "I don't know if I can maintain my original intention like Daoyou when I open a store." ”
"Eh! Zixuan Daoyou, don't be presumptuous, you have a calm breath, spend more time on alchemy, and then ask a miscellaneous person to take care of the shop, isn't it?"
Seeing that she was of the same rank, her posture was lower, and she was very modest and polite, so she was willing to mention a few more words.
"The monks who have been invited to do this can't be bad at alchemy, and when the business is good, there are customers and no goods, isn't it just a dry stare? ”
He Miaomiao knew the rules of the Nine Secluded Palace's recyclability, and it was not surprising that he was aware of it.
"And this site, you have to choose it carefully. When you get to the Nine Shades Palace, don't listen to the open space they recommend, what is only your family dominant, it's all empty talk! You have to choose the center of Fang, the closer to the shore of the small shade pond, the better!"
The location of the Underworld Pill Fang is on the edge of the small shade pool, and you can see the dark pool water when you stand at the door, so as soon as He Miaomiao enters the market, she can see this shop.
"Friends of the Spiritual Power Dao are really kind words! Thank you very much!"
"What's this!" he waved his hand absently, "After all, Jiacheng is located on the Soul Burial Lake, there are not many monks coming and going, and there are only three large shops in the Dan Pharmacy, as well as four or five small shops that are half collapsed. What's the point of having more of you and less of you?"
Only then did He Miaomiao deeply feel how much influence the Nine Shadows Palace's purchase of pills that could not be sold at a low price had on these monks who were doing business.
They are not as hostile to competition as the outside world, but have an attitude of indifference.
But this is a good thing for her, as long as there is no hostility at first, she has time to boil the frog in warm water. Slowly do a good job, and when these monks react, they will not be able to make any impact.
"Daoyou is right. I don't know what unwritten rules are there for paying tribute to the Nine Shadows Hall every year?"
Hearing this, he looked inside the store, and waited until a monk who had purchased Dan left, and then opened his mouth.
Every three hundred days, the Nine Shadows Hall will send messengers to collect soul stones. In addition to the share that should be handed in, each store will give five more medium-grade soul stones, which should be filial piety messengers. This is well known, and no one is shouting outside. ”
He Miaomiao hugged her fists gratefully, after all, Wu Cang, as a high-level protector, was very likely not to know about these things. Only among the monks below can they be inquired.
If she doesn't follow the rules, it is very likely that she will offend the messenger unknowingly.
"The amount of tribute is actually not much, this business, there must always be two accounts to ......"
Mingli said with a meaningful smile, He Miaomiao nodded thoughtfully, and chatted with him for a long time before thanking him and getting up to leave.
When he walked out of the shop, Wu Cang had already sold the soul crystal, but he didn't make a move here when he killed the magic weapon obtained by the monk who was following him.
When he saw He Miaomiao coming out of the store, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked about the inquiry.
