The fairy city of the market man

Chapter 27

When he asked, Shang San'er felt ashamed: "Brother doesn't know, although younger brother regards it as his life, he has never learned chess yet!"

"Ha ha!"

Fei Ruyi clapped her hands and laughed, seeing that Shang San'er was uncomfortable, she explained: "Brother, don't be upset, I'm not laughing at you! You know that I love playing chess the most, but I've learned it for 500 years, and I'm still called a stinky chess basket. Play with me! Looking at the chessboard, I feel itchy, but I dare not ask for a talk, because I am afraid of meeting a master!"

The beauty of this man is that he loves to expose his shortcomings, which makes Shang San'er laugh: "Brother is too miserable, I don't believe that playing chess for hundreds of years has not improved!"

"There is progress, but how can it be compared to those cunning people who are used to counting? There is nothing left and right, but you want me to teach you how to play? But if you learn it, in another 20 years, brothers will improve their chess skills, so don't laugh at me as a stinky chess basket!"

Normally, Shang San'er didn't like to learn this chess, as it was a waste of his brain, but Ma Kuan was an interesting person, he would not be bored if he opened his mouth to teach. like.

"Call my brother to suffer!"

Shang Saner had a chessboard but no pieces, so Fei Ruyi took out her own and taught him from the beginning.

Drinking tea in Ma Kuan's house, and patiently learned chess theory and fixed moves for a long time, until I heard Chen Wu looking for him, I said goodbye: "I drank my brother's tea today, and I have to teach chess again. It's a pity that there is nothing in return. , only come back to my city and treat my brother to drink!"

"Brother sincerely wants to be with you. You don't expect anything else. You are looking for a good life. When you see the fairy master, don't forget to do it. Don't dare to force it. Let it go! But your city is dangerous, so don't deceive me." Those who defend the city and have already destroyed three life objects, how dare they go against right and wrong?"

"In the future, I will look for one or two chess books, and I will read more books and learn how to play. When my chess skills increase, I will find my brother to drink and play chess. I will come to Erban Mountain on the west side of the capital of the Southern Jin Dynasty. Borrow his house, and also borrow the land to grow tea!"

Shang San'er wrote it down, left, and went out to ask Chen Wu why he was looking for him.

Chen Wu replied: "The two brothers of the Tu family came here and said that they have to be placed as craftsmen and officials. They have nothing else to do. They should have dinner!"

Thinking that he didn't have much money on him, Shang San'er nodded: "Let's go then!"

Before going out, he saw Lu Shang hastily entered the protocol department, and he asked, "Master Juncheng, what's the matter?"

Lu Shanggong cupped his hands: "The city master is free, I'll see Senior Ma!"

He went to Ma Kuan's room, and Shang San'er slowed down.

When Shang San'er came out, the door of Ma Kuan's room was not closed, and Lu Shang went in outside to salute and sign up.

The VIP room here is much better than that in Green Willow City, at least it can be soundproofed, and the two of them talked in it, but they didn't hear the sound coming out.

But later, Ma Kuan came out with Lu Shang.

Shang San'er was still standing in the courtyard, seeing that the two of them were about to go out, he kept saying, "What's the matter, brother?"

Ma Kuan said: "The governor of Dongshan finally accepted my request and is willing to sell black gold stones. Brother, do you want to go and have a look?"

Shang San'er rejoiced: "There are good things to see, I must go!"

He touched a piece of broken silver on the dog's back, and threw it to Chen Wu: "Uncle, go eat by yourself, leave me alone!"

It's just buying and selling, it's not a secret matter, since Fei Ruyi has made friends with the owner of the mall, Lu Shang led two earth immortals into the county guard's mansion.

Lu Wei, the governor of Dongshan County and the head of the Lu family, personally received him.

Shang San'er, the lord of the upper city, also saw him for the first time, looking at the eagle watching the wolf, looking a little uncomfortable to get along with.

Tonight, he was just a companion to watch the fun, and after paying respects to the host's house, he retreated behind Ma Kuan.

Ma Kuan has had bad luck for nearly 200 years, and he even added the nickname "Wasteful Ruyi", but he was promoted from the ninth-level human immortal to the earth immortal by virtue of his real skills. above.

The pleasantries were all focused on Ma Kuan.

It took a while to get to the point. Lu Wei tore away the red cloth in front of him, revealing a five-inch wide and four-foot-long stone strip covered with black gold spots. There is only one piece left, it is really hard to give up, so I have to think about it for one more day, senior, please don't blame it!"

The special product of Dragonscale City is the black gold stone, which is formed by combining the overflowing breath of the Nine Nether Devil Qi after being filtered by the seal seal and the local unique stones. Most of them are in the shape of stone strips. Unlike jade, this thing is naturally hard Even better than iron, human beings made treasures, and the black gold spots contained in it can be stimulated to increase the ability to injure the enemy.

The piece of stone in front of him, because it is covered with black and gold spots, is already the best top-grade product, it is very rare to find it in the market, Shang San'er went up with Ma Kuan, and looked at it carefully.

Satisfied with watching, Fat Immortal twisted his body and asked: "I don't know the price of the city master yet?"

"Bamboo leaves with eight hundred merits!"

The two Earth Immortals gasped together.

The Youbi Shrimp in Green Willow City is more expensive than the price of black gold and stone bars, but the top-quality Youbi Shrimp is extremely hard to find, and it is two pieces of the "slightly difficult" Earth Immortal Drunk that Daluo Jinxian said The wine is pretty good, not to mention the eight-section and nine-section shrimp, the six-section and seven-section shrimp are rarely caught.Black gold stone is a dead thing. Once it is formed, it will not move again. As long as people continue to mine it, the output can be stable. The top grade black gold stone is also much easier to find. Dragonscale City is richer than Green Willow City.

In terms of the use of strange objects, the black gold stone is more useful than the Youbi shrimp, but it is easy to get, so the price is cheap. For the cultivator, the asking price of the strange object mainly depends on the rarity.

Objects of the same quality, the more they are produced, the lower the price. If you prefer the rare ones, you can only accept them.

More than a hundred years ago, a certain mountain god widely planted jujube, and other houses also have it, and its price is normal, but now Duobaoge asks for high prices all the year round, and it is only [-] leaves, but there is no stock. It really meets the need Its, no matter how high the price is, you have to buy it.

Ma Kuan wriggled his fat waist and bargained: "The top black gold stones used to only sell for about 600 leaves. Even if they are the best of the best, they can't be so expensive! To tell you the truth, I borrowed all the money from a few friends' houses, I only collected more than [-] meritorious bamboo leaves, but I don’t know that the county guard will set the price on the ground, so please forgive me, and I will thank you in the future!”

Lu Wei said with a smile: "If senior is willing to serve as guest minister in my Dragon Scale City for 20 years, this black gold stone will be given away for free. If you have trouble during the tenure, there will be another thank you gift!"

When Tu Zhuang was a general in the Daqi Kingdom, and he was always dispatched for everything, his annual salary was only fifteen leaves. Here, eight hundred leaves for 20 years is the price of a second-rank earth immortal, and extra is added for occasions.

"That won't work!" Fei Ruyi shook her head: "I know the county guard has great ambitions. If I serve in your family, I'm afraid Dongshan County will have another conspiracy and start a war again! But I was lucky, and it broke in 200 years. The three life objects, the soul has been severely damaged, and if you enter the world again to cause trouble, do you think your own life is too long? Even your senior earth fairy, Dongshan County Outer Map, he will not make a move when he is idle!"

Human immortals are low-level, but Taoism and treasures can't hurt earth immortals. Even Bai Di was injured by Hao Qilin. Who dares to underestimate the world's immortals?

Lu Wei persuaded: "The black gold stone is harder than iron, and it is not easy to break. How can senior destroy the fourth life object?"

"Everything in the world is born and restrained by each other. Black gold and stone are very strong, but there is no lack of restraint! Let the sheriff lower the price, and don't mention the service, otherwise I would rather not buy it!"

Saying that Ma Kuan was about to become an official, Lu Wei shook his head: "The previous good stones have all been sold out, and I don't know when I will be able to pick them up again. The last piece of black gold is the most full, but it was kept by my Lu family for personal use at the bottom of the box. A penny is indispensable!"

That black gold stone bar looked really good, it was suitable to be his unlucky man's life, and he couldn't bargain the price, so Fat Immortal left reluctantly, and took out a few things: "I got it, and I will grind it into a stone as wishful as I want. , It’s a bit too wide, you can cut some back, these few things of mine are worth nearly [-] leaves, can it be added?”

Indeed, as Ma Kuan said before, no matter how hard the black gold stone is, there are some that can restrain it, at least it can be cut and ground.

Lu Wei disagreed again: "I cut it off, how can I sell it?"

After all, they still couldn't reach an agreement. Shang San'er was busy, so he leaned into Ma Kuan's ear and asked, "Brother, tell me the truth, how far is it?"

We just met today, and even though we hit it off, Ma Kuan didn't make up his mind on Shang San'er. When he heard him ask this question, he was immediately happy: "I'm an honest person, and I don't tell lies. There is still a shortage of seventy leaves for the strange thing, brother, would you like to lend it to me?"

Shang San'er smiled and clasped his fists at Lu Wei: "Lord Sheriff, I would like to buy it together with Big Brother Ma, but I only have more than 40 leaves left on me, and I will send all the missing leaves in one month, okay? "

Ma Kuan is not an earthly householder, an earthly immortal who leaves whenever he wants to, and he has been exhausted after several times of changing his life. Knowing that he is deeply in debt, Lu Wei will seduce him as a guest. If things fail, he dare not pay on credit for transactions. The Lord is in his own county, but he cannot escape.

But this guy has just sold a five-section shrimp to the Lu family, and he is not rich, and he is relying on selling two more useless medium-sized treasures, so he dares to say that he will pay back the account within a month?
Ear God reported that the three virtuous bamboos in Green Willow City have all been destroyed!
He is a heavenly immortal, and he really wants to make money in a way, but the ten-year tribute he promised before is a bit of a loss!

While the sheriff was in deep thought, Shang San'er turned to Ma Kuan: "Brother Ma, I'm poor and never borrow money. How about a joint purchase this time? If you think it's too wide, I'll just cut it into thin slices, but Please be careful, don't cut it off!"

Fei Ruyi smiled wryly: "Brother, brother, I won't cheat you. You have to grind it into a utensil to make it work. It's too thin and it's easy to destroy. It's not worth it!"

Shang San'er told him solemnly: "Before, to ward off the Youmo, my City God's sword was broken, and I promised to buy it for him. Such a wonderful thing, how could I not want it?"

The cut stone strips are too thin to be used for other purposes, but the Chenghuang Sword, which does not need to be head-to-head, is more than enough, and there is no need to polish it!
However, there are few such rich and generous city gods in the world. They think that the god of Yin has low abilities. Who in other cities is not made of ordinary stone bars made by ordinary stonemasons?

Cooperation will benefit both, Ma Kuan is also overjoyed, and said: "Make it! Make it!"

The two Earth Immortals scooped up all their wealth and bought together, and the deal was concluded.

On the way back to the concierge department, Fat Ruyi patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry brother, I'll cut it carefully tonight, and the slices will be given to you tomorrow morning!"

Because of the black gold stone strips from the quarry, Shang San'er remembered something and asked him: "Brother Ma, if someone's meridians are completely destroyed and his dantian is also broken, can you save him?"

Ma Kuan shook his head: "It can't be saved!"

"Do you know the way to save?"

Fei Ruyi thought about it carefully, and answered him: "I am an Earth Immortal who only cares about the soul. The body is almost useless, and even if the muscles and veins are completely destroyed, it is considered a serious injury. It is a Human Immortal. You can ignore it if you ask him to advance to the Earth Immortal. I don't know how to cure it; if the dantian is broken, you can go to Jiguan Mountain to ask for the miraculous pill to heal it. There is a senior earth immortal who lives in seclusion in a hut, and only concentrates on alchemy. There is a great reputation among the immortals, and there are those who rule the dantian!"

Back in the concierge department's own room, Shang San'er thought: "In addition to the debts owed by the newly added county guard's mansion, the arrows customized by Duobao Pavilion are only paid for, and now they are all at a loss. If you finish it earlier, go back to fishing. It’s not like I can’t afford to catch a five-section shrimp for a month!”

Then he thought: "Shrimp fishing depends on luck. Last time I caught it in one day, what if the luck is really bad this time? I just met the unlucky Fei Ruyi..."

"Bah bah bah, great auspiciousness, a hundred poisons will not invade! Even as a Da Luo Jinxian, Master also said that he had bad luck, but what has it to do with me? I have great blessings, and I really can't do it. I can still sell Zizao !"

"I can't blame my old lady for calling me a prodigal. When I went to Longlin City for a day, I lost more than 800 taels of silver. I spent all my merits and bamboo leaves, and I still owed money!"
