Longevity Martial Arts: Beginning with Sword Drawing

Chapter 51 Longevity Processing Factory!
"Pretty cautious!"

Lin Bei frowned.

He does have the idea of ​​running away with the money, but whether he will do that or not needs to be weighed carefully.

In short, it is best to cheat a little more deposit.

Unfortunately, the masked man is not fooled at all.

"The maximum deposit is 50 taels!"

The masked man spoke directly, decisively, with an extremely firm tone.

When Lin Bei heard this, he stopped bargaining with him.

Obviously, the other party was very worried about running away, so if he let his mouth get bubbly, it would definitely not increase the cost a little bit.

"Forget it, 50 taels is 50 taels."

Lin Bei shrugged.

Then, the masked man took out 50 taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Lin Bei.

Lin Bei counted and found that there was not a single piece missing, so he quickly put it away.

"Three questions!"

Lin Bei stretched out three fingers.

"First, you are also a resident of Changsheng Town, right?"

The masked man was silent and did not refute.

Lin Bei continued: "Second question, although there are not many foundries in Changsheng Town, there are quite a few. Why did you come to me?"

This was a question he had wanted to ask a long time ago. The reason why he asked it now was very simple. It would be better to ask the other party first after taking out the money.

Once you get the money, you can just turn your face and deny anyone!

The masked man glanced at him, and said solemnly: "Because you are the most money-poor foundry master among them!"

"The most deficient foundry..."

The corner of Lin Bei's mouth twitched.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be true.

In [Dali Blacksmith Shop], Jiang Dali, the boss, needless to say, all the proceeds of the entire blacksmith shop belong to him, and he is very rich.

As for Guan Lao and the other four signature casters, they are all a little old and have no ambition to make progress. They have already lived happily by forging iron all day long, and they don't have much pursuit of money.

On the other hand, he is obviously already a signature foundry in [Dali Blacksmith Shop], with a good salary.

But he was not satisfied at all, instead he went up to the mountains to hunt exotic animals to make money when he had time, obviously he was a master who was extremely short of money!
It's no wonder that the masked man would find him. People who are not short of money are not willing to take the slightest risk.

Lin Bei didn't know if the masked man had found other casting masters.

Maybe I found it, but was rejected by the other party.

Maybe he didn't look for it at all, and he stared at himself at the first sight.

I have to admit that my goal is indeed the most suitable foundry for entrusting the casting of bows and crossbows.

"The third question!"

Lin Bei stared into the masked man's eyes with a cold expression: "Since you are also a resident of Changsheng Town, why didn't you ask me to commission a custom order in Changsheng Town, but followed me to Changyin Mountain?!"

The other party's appearance here is obviously not a coincidence, but a deliberate follow-up!

The masked man explained: "Naturally, it's because it's not easy to expose our transactions in Changyin Mountain."

"Is it?"

Lin Bei gave him a sideways glance, noncommittal.

"Ahem, everything is for safety."

The masked man coughed, feeling a little guilty.

He would definitely not tell Lin Bei that he had prepared three plans.

Originally, he wanted to subdue Lin Bei in Changyin Mountain.

The first plan is to force him to take poison, and then coerce him to cast a bow and crossbow for himself for free.

The second plan is to take him away, prepare a place for him, and force him to forge a crossbow for himself.

In short, the first two programs are free and do not cost a penny.

But the premise is that he has the ability to subdue Lin Bei.

It's a pity, after witnessing Lin Bei killing three hunters with six levels of qi and blood within a few breaths, he felt that he was not fully sure of subduing Lin Bei.

So, he adopted plan three!

Deal directly with Lin Bei and spend money to let him make a bow and crossbow for him!
For these, Lin Bei is naturally well aware.

But he didn't expose it, after all, the other party really didn't do anything.

A gentleman doesn't care about his deeds, he can think about it, but if he makes a move, he must bear the thunderous counterattack!

However, the main thing is that Lin Bei saw that the other party's cultivation was above seven levels of Qi and blood!

This is the warrior with the highest realm he has come into contact with so far, and he is not sure that he can kill it!

Both sides knew well that since they were not sure that they could kill each other, it would be better to sit down and have a good talk, so that peace can make money!

The deal is done.

After agreeing on the delivery time and place, the masked man didn't stay too long, turned around and disappeared into the depths of the woods.

"Is your benefactor all right?"

When Lin Bei returned, the three members of the Li family all showed concern.

Lin Bei waved his hand, and said lightly: "It's been resolved, hurry up and deal with the strange beasts. There have been several fights here, and the movement is too loud. It's hard to guarantee that it won't attract other predators."

He dismissed the topic lightly and did not disclose anything about the making of crossbows to a few people.

The three of them were also very knowledgeable, they turned around and continued to deal with the alien meat.

Since benefactor didn't want to say it, they didn't force it.

The more you know, the more dangerous you are. It is better to ask less about things that have nothing to do with you. This is the way to survive.

It took several hours for the crowd to deal with the exotic animal meat, and then they carried the spoils on their backs and headed back to Changsheng Town.

The three alien beasts that Lin Bei captured were relatively average in strength and low in life level. They were of great benefit to warriors below the fourth level of energy and blood, but not obvious to warriors of the fifth level of energy and blood.

However, if this is the case, Lin Bei will still leave dozens of catties of meat for each beast, and eat it slowly.

Thanks to his insistence on eating the meat of different animals during this period of time, even though he hadn't taken blood spirit ginseng for a long time, his cultivation still improved rapidly, and he was now approaching the sixth level of energy and blood.

Lin Bei predicted that even if he didn't take the blood spirit ginseng, he would be able to advance to the sixth level of qi and blood within two months at most!

……

After returning to Changsheng Town.

A few people in Lin Bei found a merchant who bought exotic animal meat, and sold most of the exotic animal meat, leaving only a small part for themselves to eat.

This strange beast was sold for a total of 70 taels of silver, the highest price among the three strange beasts.

Lin Bei directly distributed almost 50 taels of silver, and the remaining 20 taels were divided among the three of Li's family and his son.

Seeing that the merchants will skillfully handle the exotic animal meat, dehydrate it, marinate it, dry it and save it, then drag it to the big cities in the future, and sell it to those family martial arts gyms or sects.

These merchants rely on buying resources from various places at low prices, bringing them to prosperous cities, and selling them at high prices to earn the difference.

Most of the blood spirits in Changsheng Town were bought by these merchants, and only a small part was still circulating in the town.

Different animal meat and blood spirit ginseng are both good things, and they are extremely important training resources for warriors in the Qi and blood realm.

Naturally, no one wants to circulate it to other places.

But there is no way, if you can't afford it, you can't afford it. Most warriors can only spend more time to slowly boil their blood, and the blood spirits and different beast meat are reserved for the critical moment of breaking through the realm.

In a sense, Changsheng Town is a large processing factory.

In the end, they couldn't afford the cultivation resources that were handed over to the residents of Changsheng Town.

Just like those factories in the previous life, they produced fruit phones every day, but they still needed to live frugally, and couldn’t afford a fruit machine.

The rent in Changsheng Town is very expensive, and the daily expenses are also high. Everyone lives in a haggle.

According to what Lin Bei heard, there are almost no locals in Changsheng Town.

The land and real estate are jointly controlled by the mayor's family and several big households. The houses are only rented and not sold, and the rent is several times higher than in ordinary towns.

Lin Bei speculated that if this measure could be implemented, it would inevitably involve the shadow of the government.

It is precisely because of this that every warrior in Changsheng Town has to pay a lot of physical strength for the high cost of living.

Fortunately, the inner city is full of fighters with Qi and Blood Level [-] or above, and there are more ways to make money, and the cost of living is not a big burden.

But in the outer city, it was extremely difficult to live.

Regardless of the inner city or the outer city, all the exploited money went into the pockets of the top families to enrich their property!
