CHAPTER XXXIX
"You're still in a small business?"
I looked at a rudimentary wooden board hanging outside the treehouse, with only two lines written on it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Frozen storage of food: one eight-petal fairy orchid or equivalent animal skin per month, and one eight-petal fairy orchid or equivalent animal skin per ton for water production. ”
Underneath the two lines of words, there are also rather abstract pictures.
Jiang Shang nodded, "It's all immortal grass that needs to be used for cultivation, and when the neighbors in the neighborhood go out, they see it, and they pick it back by the way, so I will help them do something in return." ”
I pointed to the miserable thing in the picture below, "This is the eight-petal fairy orchid?"
Jiang Shang didn't feel embarrassed at all, "Yes, this is the most common, if there are some other useful fairy grasses, I will also accept them." ”
Well, this is the preliminary social division of labor, bartering. As a business student, I'm interested in this, and the next step is the beginning of free trade.
"How's business?" I asked.
"So-so. It's a pity that I majored in water control in the Five Elements Spell during the condensation period, if I learned fire control, it would be more popular, and cooking cooked food is something that needs to be done every day, and the demand is relatively large. ”
Oh, yes, and there are basic concepts of supply and demand. I pointed to the plank in front of his house, "Don't you know how to make water, and this is a big need." ”
Jiang Shang nodded, moved the door panel and welcomed me in, "But the consumption is also very strong, the aura in my whole body is exhausted, and I can only produce three tons of water in a day." ”
Oh, and the level of production technology is limited.
I nodded, "And what do you usually eat and drink?"
"All the clansmen who are confirmed to have the qualifications to cultivate the truth will become the disciples of the master, and the food and drink on weekdays will be uniformly supplied by the clan. But the Immortal Grass Inner Pill needed for cultivation has to figure out a way by yourself. ”
"Nedan?" I grasped the word sensitively.
"Yes," Jiang Shang's expression suddenly became a little yearning, "The master said that after the demon clan's inner pill is refined, it can greatly improve its cultivation, and the higher the year, the greater the effect." The last time there was a Great Elder Xiong's Inner Dan, it was six hundred and eighty years old, and although it lost nearly half of its potency after it was broken, after being refined by the master, it could still allow any disciple in the Qi Condensation Stage to build a stable foundation. ”
"I said, I've heard you mention Qi condensation and foundation building several times, what are they?"
Jiang Shang smiled, "This is the realm division of the true practice created by the master, the so-called law does not pass on the six ears, since the master did not tell you, it is inconvenient for me to tell you." ”
I rolled my eyes. This guy, when I first met him in front of the beast tide, knew that he was a loyal lord on the outside, but in fact he was a bad man.
No wonder they colluded with the barbarian demons to sneak attack us that day, and it turned out that they were going for the three big demons' Neidan. If they really succeed, it will indeed be very rewarding. Thinking about it, the toad demon was still hidden in the dark, thinking that the gang of the Gonggong clan gave it the fairy grass in the bear warehouse to let it take a big advantage. If it knew that these people were planning to fight the idea of the Great Demon Neidan, I don't know if it would choose to cooperate.
Although the demon has opened up his spiritual intelligence, he still can't compare with people when he plays with his heart.
I sighed in my heart while looking at Jiang Shang's residence, the small tree house was very simple, there was only one room, and there was a piece of animal skin on the ground, which was the bed. The room had no windows, but it wasn't dim, and my eyes were almost immediately drawn to a luminous figure in the corner.
Jiang Shang followed my gaze and showed a clear expression: "That's for lighting, some small means of senior brother." Between us and the same sect, only the Five Elements Spell of his Qi Condensation Period majored in light control. ”
I'm a little confused, aren't the five elements gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, how can there be light? But Jiang Shang won't answer me when they ask questions about the exercises, so I simply didn't ask.
But...... There's even an electric light......
I suddenly thought of a question, jumped up and glared at him, "You won't beat my little thing Nedan idea, will you?"
"What little thing?" Jiang Shang was puzzled, and then suddenly said, "You said that you bear demon cub." Senior Sister does have this thought," he smiled when he saw my dark face, "But since the master has already treated you as a guest, we as disciples will not embarrass you." Especially the senior sister, she listens to the master's words the most. ”
I can't see it, that fierce woman is still a good student.
However, hearing such an answer, my heart was somewhat calmer.
I hope that Spirit Bear and the little things can be safe with her.
I had some dinner with Jiang Shang, and there was no entertainment in the evenings these days. The two of us didn't know each other well, so we didn't have anything to talk about, so we found a corner in the house and went to bed early.
The next day, after a hasty breakfast, Jiang Shang first went to Yu Shun's place, and came back not long after, saying that he had officially asked Shizun for a decree and accompanied me out for a walk.
According to his explanation, although these disciples who have entered the door of cultivation have a higher status, they still need to take turns to contribute to the clan, such as going out hunting with the hunting team. Today it was his turn to be on duty, but because he had the task of receiving foreign guests, he went to Yu Shun to take a leave of absence, and asked Yu Shun to find another apprentice to take the shift.
It turned out that I went to issue a leave of absence.
Since it was ordered to go shopping, Jiang Shang also let go, and after pulling me and Senior Sister Xiong Ling to meet, the group began to run around the clan to see, I have never been scattered on the tree like this when I am so old.
Jiang Shang told me that the population size of the entire Gonggong clan is not 500,000 as rumored, but about 800,000, which is close to the size of the Nuwa clan. This is because of the emergence of the first cultivators, the harvest of hunting, captivity, and cultivation has skyrocketed, food sources have become abundant, the survival rate of children has also greatly increased, and the mortality rate of the clan has greatly decreased. After the danger of natural predators such as hunger and disease weakened, the ability of humans to reproduce began to manifest, and in just 10 years, the clan population increased by 300,000.
I think about it, people in these years, after dinner, there is no other entertainment except for popping, and they don't know contraception, can the population not explode.
As the population grew, the number of clansmen with cultivation qualifications also increased. Today, among the 800,000 people of the Gonggong clan, there are 4 foundation building monks and 4 monks in the condensation period who worship directly under Yu Shun. In addition, under the instruction of Yu Shun, the 4 monks in the foundation building period accepted another 10 school-age children with good talents as the third generation of disciples to teach and cultivate.
This already faintly has the feeling of cultivating the true mountain gate in the Xianxia novel.
I noticed that after Jiang Shang went to Yu Shun in the morning to open a leave slip and came back, his attitude towards me had changed subtly, and he was willing to take the initiative to tell me this kind of information that was not too confidential in the clan.
I inquired that the sixth junior disciple in Jiang Shang's mouth that day was Jiang An, who was killed by Xiong Ling, and was also one of the four Qi Condensation Period cultivators. However, after Yu Shun came back this time, he didn't send anyone to find him, so the matter was over.
This news made me a little suspicious, Yu Shun, this old guy wouldn't have guessed that we had killed Jiang An, or there would be only one monk out of 80,000 people on average, and he wouldn't look for it if he didn't look for it? But looking at his attitude towards us, it doesn't seem to be like it, it's really confusing.
But in the current situation, it's useless to dwell on this.
