Chapter 82 Trading
The young monk who sold melons that day also came to set up a stall today, to be precise, he came yesterday afternoon.

However, what he sold at the stall today was not spirit melons, but a few talismans. Looking at the crooked ink marks on the talisman paper, it was obviously a defective product of poor quality.

Li He is from Huaiguo, but not from Yongzhou.His hometown is Jingzhou, north of Yongzhou, more than 1000 miles away from Dongshanfang City.When he was young, he was enlightened by an expert, and was given the cultivation method of immortality. Since then, he has embarked on the journey of immortality. Over the years, he has been practicing all the way, and the road of cultivation is quite open.

His family has no relatives, and even few friends in this world, so he settled here in Dongshanfang City, counting it has been eight years.

The practice in Fangshi is extremely boring. When I first came to the Refining Pavilion, I worked as a handyman carrying ore. Although it was hard work, I could save some spiritual stones.

After several years of hard work, he may have good aptitude, but with the help of a dozen pills, his cultivation has broken through to the middle stage of Qi training in one fell swoop.I originally thought that after my cultivation level increased greatly, I could go to the mountains with others to search for medicine, and earn more spiritual stones to pave the way for future practice. I never thought that the mountains are dangerous and full of monsters. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

Witnessing his companion's arm being gnawed off by a demon wolf with his own eyes, he felt resigned, so he returned to Fangshi to continue his previous penance life.

Although there are not many ways to make money in Fangshi, the advantage lies in the tranquility, and there is no need to worry about fighting with beasts and people every day.He learned the craft, and wanted to make more spirit stones by making talismans. Yesterday was the first time he went out to the talisman booth. He never thought that no one would patronize him. There were only a few talismans left, so he had to put it on hold until today. stand.

However, what Li He didn't expect was that a customer came to the door as soon as he left the stall this morning, and it was none other than the white-haired female cultivator who had met once that day.

He saw that the nun was young, seven or eight years younger than him, and she was peaceful and not putting on airs, so he gave her a spirit melon.

Seeing the other party eating melons one bite at a time, he couldn't help but think of his sister in his hometown. If there was no drought that year, the family should still be together at this time.

Since that day, Li He had thought that he might not have any contact with the other party in the future, but he never thought that the white-haired nun came to her door on her own initiative today, and kept saying that she wanted to make a deal with him.

What deal?
Could it be that she wants to buy her own talisman?
Thinking of this, Li He, who was sitting cross-legged behind the booth, leaned forward and gathered the spread out talismans into his sleeves in a panic.

"My talismans are all defective products, worthless."

That's right, they were all defective products left over from recent days of practice, and they were barely selected from a large pile of scrapped talisman papers. He wanted to try to sell them at a low price so as to get back some money, but I never thought that the white-haired female cultivator wanted to buy her own talisman, how could this be possible.

Li He couldn't be more clear about the quality of the talismans he drew.Selfishly, he didn't want the white-haired female cultivator to suffer, so he bought a few defective products and returned them. If he got into a fight with someone, he would suffer.

What's more, when people saw such a poor talisman, he was inevitably a little ashamed, and he couldn't hold his head up for a while.

On the other side of the booth, Huaying heard what he said suddenly, and she looked puzzled: "Ah? Brother Gua, what are you talking about? I didn't say I want to buy your talisman. The transaction I said meant something else."

"Something else?"

Li He raised his head in surprise.

Huaying smiled and explained: "Hee hee, Brother Gua, I have a batch of spirit melons. If you have time, can you sell them for me? Don't worry, I will give you a commission, and I won't let you do it for nothing." .”

"Spirit melon."

Li He read in a low voice, then nodded heavily, "Of course, but I don't need to take a commission, anyway, I'm going to set up a stall here today to sell talismans."

"Oh, I will definitely give you the commission, you will accept it."

Huaying knew that this was a long-term business, so of course it had to be negotiated first, otherwise, if there was no profit to be made, no one would be able to set up a stall here for her with nothing to do every day.

Now, it is obviously impossible for her to set up a stall to sell melons by herself, which not only wastes time, but also attracts attention.That being the case, it is better to learn from those shop owners and find an agent to set up a stall on this small street to sell spirit melons.

In this way, she can not only harvest spirit stones, but also spare time to study other ways to make money in the jade pendant space, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

And the melon brother in front of Huaying was the one she decided to sell melons after careful consideration.

Although it was not called him, she only had one communication with him, but she could tell that this person was kind and sincere, and he did not act ostentatiously.

Needless to say, the tone is very tight. Before Huaying asked him questions, he had to think for a long time before answering each time. It couldn't be more suitable.

"Brother Gua, the spirit melons in my hand are all good melons. I'll give you [-] catties for a low-grade spirit stone. You can list a piece of [-] or [-] catties. I also tried it here a few days ago. Over water, at this price, it is completely acceptable in Fangshi."

"How many catties is it?" Li He asked.

"It's about forty or fifty catties each time. If you sell it for two or three days, you can definitely sell it all."

"OK, alright"

After hearing Huaying say "every time", Li He realized that this is a long-term business. If it is done well, it may really make a lot of spirit stones, so he immediately nodded and agreed.

As for the source of the spirit melon, he didn't ask at all, not even a suspicious expression.

"Brother Gua is refreshing, since that's the case, then let's make a deal. From now on, I will send you melons, and you will sell them on behalf of us. Let's cooperate with each other!"

Seeing that the other party agreed to this matter, Huaying couldn't help being even more happy, and continued, "By the way, if someone asks where your spirit melon came from, Brother Gua, don't mention me."

"I will not say."

Li He nodded, then closed his mouth tightly.

Seeing his cautious and cautious appearance, Huaying immediately knew that she had found the right person, she was calm and didn't say much, and probably no one in the whole market could find a more suitable candidate than him.

"This is the first batch of spirit melons totaling fifty catties, and there are some spirit melon tips and melon seedlings inside. You can determine the price according to the market."

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, the two left the booth and walked to a remote alley to hand over the goods. Huaying asked the other party while pouring the spirit melon out of the storage bag.

Li He also had a storage bag, and after he glanced at the spirit melon on the ground, he quickly put the spirit melon in it, looking sneaky as if he was a melon thief.

After the handover was completed, Huaying immediately felt a lot more relaxed. In this way, she could do other things instead of watching the booth all day long.

"Brother Gua, I'll come back to deliver you melons in two days, so I'm leaving today!"

"."

Li He nodded, and didn't even say a single extra word from the beginning to the end, as if he was already dumb.

Afterwards, watching Huaying leave the alley, Li He grabbed his storage bag, hurried back to his stall, put out a few spirit melons, and started selling them in a serious manner.
