Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 50 In the late stage of Qi refining, good things come in pairs

Hongyafang City, Lingshouzhai.

After a lapse of more than a month, the visitor flow of Spirit Beast Zhai has dropped a lot.

Now it's not to come here to buy or sell things. Those monks who have already been in the shop will not come again.

However, in the eyes of some monks who have sold things in the Spirit Beast Zhai, the price of certain items purchased by the Spirit Beast Zhai will be higher than other shops.

So now when some monks go out and get some spiritual objects on an adventure, when they shop around, they will list the Spirit Beast House as one of them.

This morning, a black-clothed middle-aged man with a late-stage Qi refining cultivation strode into the Spirit Beast House.

After he entered the shop, he greeted the counter familiarly: "Friend Zhou, Mr. Lin has brought you business again."

Behind the counter, Zhou Chun, who was reading a book, heard the words and quickly got up to look at the person who came.

After seeing the appearance of the visitor clearly, he also smiled and bowed his hands and said: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Lin, what treasure did Fellow Daoist get?"

"It's nothing good, it's just a few elixir plants that I gathered a few days ago when I went to hunt monsters together with a few fellow Taoists."

As the man in black said, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out three wooden boxes and put them on the counter.

Then he seemed careless and said carelessly: "You Daoist Zhou, give me your eyes and see how many spiritual coins these few things are worth."

"Then you're welcome."

Zhou Chun responded, and opened the first wooden box first, took out a ginseng-shaped elixir the size of two fingers from it, and looked at it carefully.

I saw that he turned the elixir around and looked at it carefully to see if it was damaged or not, and at the same time looked at its length and size and the lines on it.

Then put it in front of your nose and sniff it fiercely, smelling its medicinal and fragrant ginseng smell.

Then I pinched the ginseng column with my fingers and kneaded it a few times to verify that it was not glued and forged.

Zhou Chuncai put it back into the wooden box after looking at the elixir like this, and said to the man in black: "A newly picked yellow bud ginseng, the medicine should be between 70 and [-] years old. The appearance is intact and undamaged, and the purchase price of this shop is seven spirit coins!"

When the man in black heard the words, his eyes moved slightly, but he said in his mouth: "Don't worry, let's look at the other two."

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also smiled and nodded, opened the other two wooden boxes, took out the elixir one by one, and looked at them.

"A newly picked silver thread orchid, which is in good condition and not damaged. The purchase price of this shop is five spirit coins."

"A newly picked candle flame grass, the appearance is slightly damaged, and the purchase price of this shop is eight spirit coins."

After quoting the prices of the elixir in the three wooden boxes like this, Zhou Chun put the elixir back into the wooden box, looked at the man in black and asked, "Friend Lin, are you satisfied with Zhou's quotation? Do you want to sell these elixirs to this shop?"

"The quotation is indeed fair. It seems that Lin will come to your store more often in the future."

The man in black smiled slightly, showing satisfaction.

Then he pushed the three wooden boxes in front of Zhou Chun, and left with the twenty spirit coins Zhou Chun gave him.

After the man in black left, Zhou Jiasheng, who was sitting on a chair in the store, got up and walked to the counter, opened the three wooden boxes in front of Zhou Chun, and inspected the three elixirs again.

Then he looked at Zhou Chun and said indifferently: "Huangya ginseng has been used for more than 60 years, and the price of seven spiritual coins is normal."

"Silver thread orchid is mature and can be used as medicine, and the price of five spiritual coins is also normal."

"The rhizome of Candle Flame Grass has a slight tear, the efficacy of the medicine has been lost, and it is difficult to preserve for a long time. It is worth seven spirit coins at most!"

Having said that, he shook his head to Zhou Chun and said, "You are still a little younger, and you have to learn more and do more, so put that spirit coin in your account first!"

"Yes, my nephew understands."

Zhou Chun responded, and wrote down the transaction on the ledger.

After the ledger was ready, he said softly: "Actually, my nephew also knows that the candle flame grass is not worth eight spiritual coins, but the purchase prices given by the shops of the previous two elixir basically do not differ. Since Daoist Lin will come to our Spirit Beast House under such circumstances, he is obviously not satisfied with the purchase price of candle flame grass from other shops."

"If that's the case, my nephew privately thinks that if he can use one spirit coin this time to make him give priority to our spirit beast house when selling spirit objects in the future, then this spirit coin will be worth spending!"

Zhou Jiasheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help looking at him with surprise.

After staring at Zhou Chun like this for a long while, he sighed with a complex expression: "I'm not as good as you!!"

After speaking, he even laughed at himself and said, "I, Zhou Jiasheng, have lived for decades in vain. I have always claimed to be mature, prudent, and sophisticated. I don't want to be taught a lesson by a young junior like you today. It's ridiculous!"

The complexity of his mood at this time is beyond words.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun quickly said: "Uncle Sixteen is serious, there is nothing wrong with what you did in this matter, don't you see that the shopkeepers of other shops are doing the same?"

After finishing speaking, he smiled wryly and said: "My nephew's actions are just opportunistic. Maybe that Fellow Daoist Lin will come again next time and see that there is no profit, and he will not come again in the future!"

"No, you don't have to comfort me."

Zhou Jiasheng shook his head, looked at him with a complicated expression and stretched out his hand, and said: "Although I have objections to your actions before, my eyes are not blind, and my heart is not blind. I can still distinguish the facts before me from good to bad. !"

"You're right just now, if we can give visitors a benefit that other stores don't have in this kind of detail, we will have a great chance to leave a good impression on the visitors and let them choose us first when they sell spirit objects next time. , and will not give other shops an excuse to trouble us!"

Speaking of this, he also said convincingly: "No wonder the patriarch insisted on letting you come here to practice. It seems that the patriarch has long discovered that you have extraordinary insights and wonderful ideas!"

Since then, Zhou Jiasheng's attitude towards Zhou Chun has obviously changed a lot.

Even if he made a mistake in the identification of some spiritual objects later, he would no longer scold him face to face, but would calmly tell him what was wrong and how to correct it.

Even in his spare time, he would tell Zhou Chun some examples of how he was mistaken and deceived when he was studying art, so that Zhou Chun would know how to distinguish the tricks of some veteran counterfeiters.

However, in this way, Zhou Chun had no chance to act on the matter of privately purchasing the elixir that Zhou Chun had thought about before.

Fortunately, he is not particularly anxious about this, but he can learn this knowledge every day with peace of mind.

With the passage of time, after the third month since Zhou Chun came to Fangshi, his cultivation finally succeeded in breaking through to the ninth floor of the Qi refining period after taking the tenth [Jade Shen Dan], and officially entered the Qi refining stage. later stage.

Different from previous improvements in the middle stage of Qi refining, Zhou Chun's breakthrough in this small realm has brought great benefits.

First of all, his mana has increased by nearly [-]% at once, and the [Moonblade Meteor Wheel], a first-tier high-grade magic weapon, can be used to fight for more than a quarter of an hour.

Then his spiritual consciousness has also been greatly enhanced, and the detection range of his spiritual consciousness has jumped to more than 80 feet, and he can use three or four magic weapons at the same time without feeling pressured.

At the same time, because of the breakthrough growth in his cultivation base, the power of the two secret techniques he has learned, especially the secret technique of "Five Elements Spirit Armor", has also been greatly improved.

And good things come in pairs.

Not long after the news of Zhou Chunxiu's breakthrough came back to the family, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi promoted him to be a core member of the family and Zhou Zhengyong to be an elite member of the family.

It turned out that after much bargaining and negotiation, the Chiyao iron ore vein could finally be mined publicly.

After many discussions, the Chiyao iron ore vein was jointly owned and mined by the five Xiuxian families. Among them, the Zhou family was able to share [-]% of the profit from the mine vein because it was the discoverer of the mine vein and could provide Zifu with combat power to deter those who watched it.

The Sun family in Jinfengling is the closest to the mine vein, and will provide free rest and supply places for monks who mine the mine vein, and is willing to undertake part of the mining tasks, and can also share [-]% of the profit from the mine vein.

The royal family of Hongyao Valley has monks of the Zifu period, and they are willing to share the task of purifying and removing half of the turbidity in the Chiyao iron ore, so that they can share the profits of the second-generation ore veins.

The Mu Family of Biyun Mountain and the He Family of Qingzhu Mountain, because they only share some tasks of purifying and removing the turbidity in the Chiyao iron ore and providing force and deterrence, they each only share [-]% of the profit from the mine vein.

After the five immortal cultivating families agreed on the distribution of profits, they each sent people to the Sun family in Jinfengling to guard the mine veins.

At the same time, a large number of low-level casual repairs were recruited to mine ore.

And the news about the appearance of this Chiyao iron vein quickly spread in Fangshi.

For a time, the entire Lanzhou cultivating world caused waves because of this mine vein.

"Recently, because of the mine vein, there has been a lot of movement in the world of cultivating immortals in Lanzhou. The patriarch said on Eagle News, let us also pay attention to collect and pay attention to the views of the monks in Fangshi on this matter."

"The old man wants to be in charge of the shop, so let you, nephew Zhengchun, do it."

In the Spirit Beast House, Zhou Jiasheng explained the situation to Zhou Chun after reading the letter brought by the messenger Feiying from the family.

The messenger eagle domesticated by the Zhou family can send messages across thousands of miles.

Moreover, apart from taking off and landing, flying eagles fly at altitudes above a thousand feet. Unless it is a foundation-building monk or a flying monster, it is difficult to intercept this flying eagle.

Therefore, Fangshi can exchange letters with the Jiufengling family every ten days, exchanging some information that does not need to be kept secret.

And because there is a formation in Fangshi, the flying eagle cannot enter. Zhou Chun usually leaves Fangshi temporarily at a fixed time, and goes to the top of the mountain outside to signal the hovering flying eagle to land and send and receive letters.

At this time, after hearing Zhou Jiasheng's words, his heart was moved, and he immediately responded: "My nephew understands, and the things in the store will be troublesome to Uncle Sixteen."
