Chapter 103: Wind News Society (2)
Ruan Zun followed Liu San to the big teahouse he found. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This teahouse, called Yunlaizhan, is very large, in addition to a grand four-story building in the main building, there is a large courtyard outside the building, scattered with six or seven houses, and a garden. The main thing is that there is also a huge stable for pedestrians to store their mounts. In addition, it is located in the golden area of Shinshu City, and there are many customers coming and going, and business has always been good.
According to Liu San, the reason why this teahouse changed hands was because the owner of the house was old and wanted to go to Kaifeng, Tokyo to live with the son of an official, and was ready to sell it and replace it with a big mansion in Tokyo. As for the price, the landlord offered a price of three thousand taels of gold.
Three thousand taels of gold, for a spirit warrior, is actually not very expensive, converted into spirit crystals, it is only thirty ordinary white-level spirit crystals. However, the spirit priest generally does not spend spirit crystals to buy this kind of place. Running a business is a rather laborious task, and it will affect cultivation. The most taboo thing for spiritual monks to cultivate is trivial things or their hearts are irritable, and if their hearts are dry, their pulse is not smooth, and if they cultivate, they will do twice as much and get half the result.
Moreover, on this continent, the political status of businessmen is very low. In terms of status, the spiritual priest is the highest, followed by the bureaucracy, the peasant and laborer, and the merchant is the second. Arrogant spiritualists, in addition to dealing in spiritual supplies, are generally reluctant to set foot in other mortal industries.
Ruan Zun turned around, and he couldn't admit that this place was really good. It is very suitable as a base for the ideal wind news club in your mind. Moreover, there is a lot of room for future development here, and the potential is limitless.
The owner of Yunlaizhan is a fat old man in his early sixties, dressed like a squire, wearing gold and jade rings on ten fingers of his hands, and he is rich and noble. In the tearoom on the second floor, through Liu San's introduction, he knew that Ruan Zun was the one who wanted to take down the market, and he didn't want to think about it, so he set the price in one bite: "Three thousand taels of gold, one price." Take it if you want it, don't talk about it. โ
Three thousand taels, Ruan Zun really didn't have it. Not to mention three thousand taels, all the things on the body that can be sold add up to one thousand taels.
The fat old man's attitude was very resolute, and there was no room for bargaining. Ruan Zun had to go back to collect money. The first thing is to go to the Spirit Soldier Pavilion in the capital of Shinshu to sell things. He had obtained a lot of things from Xiao Rang's gift ring, plus two weapons and some money from the green-skinned man and the descendant who intercepted him, but he never disposed of it. This Spirit Soldier Pavilion is said to be a place dedicated to making weapons for people, but in fact, everything that can be collected, as long as it is related to the spirit priest, will be collected, and it will be nothing more than a price increase and transferred to other stores.
obtained more than 300 taels of gold from Xiao Rang, and the green-skinned man and his descendants obtained 100 taels of gold, plus the money in his hand, about 500 taels of gold. Seven white spirit crystals, worth about seven hundred taels of gold.
He also had twenty-seven fine-iron weapons of various shapes (including his own fine-iron longsword issued by the students of the Spiritual Academy, which had been broken), a dozen pieces of refined armor, a bunch of hidden weapons made of fine iron or other materials, six or seven amulets and other things. When he poured all these things in front of Old Craftsman Wu of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion, the latter was instantly dumbfounded by this large pile of things.
"Youโwhere did you go to rob you? "Old Craftsman Wu could see at a glance that the armor was from different spiritual warriors, and some of the armor still had some blood stains on it. Although his tone was polite, it was obvious that he had already decided that it was a thief.
"If someone asks, you can just say that it comes from Xiao Rang, the Holy Hand Scholar. As for how it was obtained from Xiao Rang, there is no need to elaborate. Ruan Zun said.
"Why bother. Old Craftsman Wu laughed, "What price can you sell for second-hand armor? Just throw them all into the furnace, take their fine iron, and reforge new weapons." The money from the sale of new weapons is much more expensive. Armor, too, dismantle and refurbish, in order to start the price. โ
Sure enough, those who do business have a way to do business. This old craftsman Wu looks real, but he is actually full of scheming.
It was dismantled and weighed, and finally about 700 catties of refined iron were obtained, as well as various other materials. Refined iron is expensive, and only one pound of gold can buy ten pounds of refined iron. These fine irons alone sold for about 1,100 taels of gold. Other armor materials and fragmentary materials, plus the various mineral herbs sent by the tiger and the big white snake, added up to three hundred taels of gold.
In this way, except for the necessities on his body, everything else has been sold, and Ruan Zun has about 2,600 taels of gold. The gold was placed in his vows like a small mountain, and the spiritual consciousness just quietly glanced into it, and he felt that his eyes were full of brilliance and golden light.
With so much gold, in the future generations, it can be regarded as a rich party.
"What are you doing with so much gold?" Murong Qianqian, who was veiled, didn't know when she had already gone downstairs, and stood behind him and asked.
"Do business. Ruan Zun replied casually.
"Doing business?" Murong Qianqian raised her eyebrows.
"It's about doing business. Ruan Zun said.
"Not doing business. Murong Qianqian said.
"Not doing your job?" Ruan Zun wondered.
"The future of a spiritual warrior lies in cultivation, the spiritual power is strong, the spiritual skills are powerful, and if you kill a powerful spirit beast at will, what you get is as good as what a businessman can get from a year or even years of hard work. If you are calculating every day, and your mind is all about business, how can you make progress in your cultivation?"
"The cultivation of spiritual warriors, sometimes, it is also possible to touch the road. Ruan Zun said.
"Hmph. Murong Qianqian said, and then asked, "Is the money enough?"
"Almost. Ruan Zun said.
"How much worse?" asked Murong Qianqian.
"Four hundred taels. Why do you want to lend me money?" Ruan Zun said jokingly.
"What's wrong with this?" Murong Qianqian's eyebrows raised again, "Lend you money, and then your business will be counted as my share." If there is any profit, I will naturally have to count it as well. โ
That's investment. Ruan Zun was surprised by Murong Qianqian's acuity, she was still worried about the rest of the money, she immediately gave a big gift, and she was very forward-conscious of investment.
"Are you really sure?" he suspected.
"Not bad. Murong Qianqian was sure.
"But you still don't know what business I'm going to do?" Ruan Zun still doubted the other party's blindness.
"It doesn't matter, I'm sure you'll do it. Ten white-grade spirit crystals appeared in Murong Qianqian's hand, "Although you are short of four hundred taels, you definitely need a certain amount of running water, I will give ten spirit crystals, the total value of one thousand taels of gold, accounting for a quarter of your share, this is not too much." โ
Not excessively, of course. Ruan Zun reached a verbal agreement with her in this way, and then roughly explained his idea of establishing the Wind News Society. One of the largest inn teahouses in Xinzhou City, it has the function of inquiring about news, and Murong Qianqian is also very interested in this. In other words, even if she is not interested in this business, she is interested in Ruan Zun as a person.
Based on this alone, those few investments are not a problem.
So, after exchanging the gold and storing it all in the ring, Ruan Zun called Liu San and came to the cloud again.
"This little brother really has amazing financial resources, he has raised enough money so quickly?" the fat shopkeeper greeted without yin or yang.
"So-so. Ruan Zun said, "Uncle, can't the price be lowered a little more?"
"If I hadn't been old, my son would have asked me to go to Beijing to enjoy happiness and give me five thousand taels of gold, and I wouldn't have sold it. Three thousand taels of gold, not a penny less. "The fat shopkeeper is a little impatient, the other party is too young, isn't it three times or twice, just playing himself?
"Three thousand taels of gold, on me, not a cent less than yours. Now, I'm going to look at the title deed, and the accounts, and then I'll trade after I've checked them. Ruan Zun said confidently.
"Then you need to pay a tenth of the money as a deposit, and I can show it to you. "The fat shopkeeper also understands.
This is true, Ruan Zun was about to pay for it, when he suddenly heard a commotion on the second floor, followed by a loud bang, and then a figure fell down the stairs on the second floor, and blood splattered everywhere!
