Practice starts from a small soldier

Chapter 29
Yi's Medicine Hall.

When Zhang Qi came here, he didn't see Boss Yi Guiyi, only shopkeeper Yu.

According to Shopkeeper Yu, Boss Yi has traveled a long way.

Seeing shopkeeper Yu bringing several jars of wine over, Zhang Qi smiled and said, "I don't drink any alcohol today, and I only have three things to do."

"Master Zhang, please tell me."

Shopkeeper Yu said very enthusiastically.

Before the Patriarch left, he had repeatedly instructed that if Mr. Zhang came, he must be entertained with the highest courtesy, and he must do his best to meet whatever needs Mr. Zhang has...

To put it simply, it is to serve Mr. Zhang like an uncle.

Zhang Qi took out the giant ice wolf skin and laid it flat on the ground, "Master Yu, let's see how much this giant ice wolf skin is worth?"

"Ice Field Giant Wolf Skin!"

Shopkeeper Yu showed surprise, stepped forward, and gently stroked the huge and snow-white fur on the ground with his hands. It felt extremely thick but extremely soft, and extremely complete. It was definitely a first-class fur.

"500 taels."

After tasting it, shopkeeper Yu offered a price that was not too high.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were not many nobles who sought after furs, so although this icefield giant wolf skin was rare, it was difficult to sell for a good price.

"make a deal."

Zhang Qi nodded.

There were 800 taels left from the last ginseng sale, and I got 1000 taels from Shaozong Zhangkun, plus this 500 taels, that is 300 taels, which is a huge sum of money.

After selling the wolf skin, Zhang Qi went straight to the point.

Shopkeeper Yu has long been prepared.

He sent a bag.

After opening it, I took out fresh iron wire grass from it, "This batch just arrived the day before yesterday, and there are 27 in total."

"There are so many!"

Zhang Qi was pleasantly surprised, looking at the wire weeds on the table, he couldn't help swallowing.

Gollum.

Haven't eaten grass for days...

Of the 27 clematis, more than half are ten years old, and the remaining ten clematis range from 20 to 50 years old.

After Zhang Qi inspected the wire grass, he said, "Master Yu, I only want the ones that are more than 20 years old this time, so please make a price."

With the deepening of practice, the ten-year-old iron wire grass has little effect on him.

Shopkeeper Yu calculated: "Six iron wire grasses in 20 years are worth 300 taels of silver. Two in 30 years are worth 380 taels of silver. One in 40 years is worth 360 taels of silver. One in 50 years is worth 800 taels of silver. The total is 880 taels of silver." Two denarii."

"It's so fucking expensive!"

Zhang Qi took a slight breath.

"Food Gold Kungfu" is strong but the price is extremely high.

I can't afford to eat grass alone.

A 20-year-old iron wire grass costs 50 taels of silver, but a 50-year-old one costs 800 taels, which is a money grab.

"Bought it."

With a big wave of Zhang Qi's hand, after paying for the ten wire weeds, his purse shrank by more than half in an instant, leaving less than 500 taels of silver.

"Master Yu, I want to read the Classic of Mountains and Seas recently. I wonder if you can get me a copy?"

Zhang Qi started to do the second thing.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

Shopkeeper Yu hesitated for a moment, then said: "This is an ancient book, it is rare for outsiders to see it, but since it is Mr. Zhang, there is no problem, but I don't know which book of mountains and seas Mr. Zhang wants to read?"

"Is there more than one Shan Hai Jing?" Zhang Qi asked in surprise.

"Of course not."

Shopkeeper Yu smiled, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas is inclusive and divided into the Classics of the Mountains and the Classics of the Sea. Among them, the Classics of the Seas include the Classics of the Overseas, the Classics of the Sea, and the Great Wilderness, and these three classics are further divided into the Western Classic, the Eastern Classic, and the Southern Classic. And Bei Jing, there are hundreds of thousands of words in any one of them. If it is a complete set of Shan Hai Jing, it will not fit in a cart."

Zhang Qi was almost dumbfounded when he heard that.

Shopkeeper Yu asked, "I don't know which book Mr. Zhang wants to read?"

After Zhang Qi thought for a while, he said, "I want to read the book that records Yimu Kingdom."

"Young Master Zhang, wait a moment."

Shopkeeper Yu left the table, and Zhang Qi waited for almost half an hour before Shopkeeper Yu came back with a book.

"Master Zhang, do you think it is this book?"

Zhang Qi took the book from shopkeeper Yu and took a look. On the cover was written "Overseas Beijing: Ghost Country Chapter".

Open it again, and the opening chapter reads: The ghost country is in the north of the corpse of the second...

The translation is that after the death of an ancient god named Er negative, a ghost country was born to the north of the god's corpse, and the people living in it are all demons and ghosts...

Inside the ghost kingdom, there are sixteen kingdoms.

Located in the far east is the Yimu Country. Its citizens are Yimumin, who only have one eye, and it grows in the middle of the face. The outside world calls it Cyclops, because these Yimumin are very large, and can grow up to more than five feet long. , which is 16 meters...

These cyclops usually hibernate and seal themselves in the glacier. Every time they wake up, they will eat a lot of food, and they will eat ten cows in one meal...

It was also written on it that one eye is especially addicted to strangers.

Meaning, these Cyclops prefer to eat the living.

Zhang Qi flipped through it, and the book in his hand looked like a travelogue, recording all the landscapes, customs and customs of the sixteen kingdoms of the ghost country.

He focused on the part about the country of one eye.

The Cyclops of the Yimu Kingdom has infinite strength, can throw tens of thousands of catties of stones several miles away, and has a strong recovery ability, and can restore strength by eating the corpses of enemies...

The more Zhang Qi watched, the more shocked he became.

Nashaluo used the Yimu Kingdom to remind him, could it be that not only the ice giant wolf appeared on the northern prairie, but also the Cyclops in the Shan Hai Jing?

Zhang Qi's expression gradually turned serious.

He thought of a cartoon from his previous life.

I can't be so unlucky, I have just traveled not long ago, and I have to face a group of monster giants who like to eat people...

"Depend on!"

This sudden sound of leaning startled Shopkeeper Yu.

Zhang Qi put down the book in his hand, and said apologetically, "The content in the book is very exciting. I was fascinated by it just now. Shopkeeper Yu, please forgive me. I still have one thing I want to ask you for your help."

"Master Zhang, you don't have to be polite."

"I heard that Boss Yi has opened many shops in the city and sells everything. I want to buy some cooking utensils from you."

"What kind of cookware."

“Hot Pot and Grill.”

"..."

"Haven't heard of it? It doesn't matter, this thing is not difficult to build."

Zhang Qi asked for paper and pens, thanks to the fact that he was forced to learn to draw since he was a child, and he quickly drew the copper hot pot and barbecue grill.

Shopkeeper Yu took the pattern and went to find someone to make it.

Zhang Qi stayed overnight, and the next day, shopkeeper Yu sent over two pieces of cooking utensils that had just been made.

Zhang Qi looked at it, and he didn't know whether his drawing was wrong or the master had misunderstood it. The two cooking utensils in front of him looked too abstract...

Forget it, as long as it works.

After bidding farewell to Shopkeeper Yu, Zhang Qi went straight back to Beacon Tower.

Not long after, someone from the Military Merit Department came to the door and brought him and the corporal leader's military merits.

Not only that, but they were also promoted.
