Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Chapter 149

Fortunately, both the master and the servant have a certain level of cultivation, so they can travel much faster than ordinary people.

Especially Qin Niu, who now has acquired a level of cultivation and can walk as fast as flying.If it were running at full strength, it would probably not be much slower than an ordinary horse.

This time when he entered the city, he was only going to sell one bug, the cultivated Hulk Hornet.

The current strength is still weak, and it is easy to be targeted by too many special bugs at once.

Last time I learned about various ways to make money from Xiaoqing.

For example, help others treat sick herbs.

If given the chance this time, Qin Niu wouldn't mind taking an order and making a little money.

He has that ancient banyan tree, which allows him to practice more than twenty times faster, and he has almost no need for elixirs for the time being.As for weapons, the sword has been initially developed by him, which is enough to deal with most dangers.

In terms of armor, the Pig King skin brought this time will be made into two sets of leather armor, which is also enough.

At least with his current strength, a set of Pig King Leather Armor is more than enough for him to be huddled in a ravine like Shuangfeng Village.

The largest family in Yuxi Town is the Yan family.

At present, his relationship with the Yan family is going well. As long as he continues to keep a low profile, the Yan family should not attack him.

As for offending brothers Wang Yue and Wang Haikun, he had no fear at all.

With his current cultivation level, he could crush Wang Yue to death with one hand.

Therefore, he currently has almost no requirements for cultivation resources.

The only thing I want to buy right now are books about cultivation.When talking to Xiaoqing, he obviously felt that his knowledge in cultivation was very shallow.Almost the same as Baiding.

This will definitely not work.

You must read more books and enrich yourself.

There are also books on insect control, animal training, and planting that I plan to buy back.

Tang Yan gave him a box of insect control books, so he could save money on this.

The rest are books on animal training and planting.

If you find something suitable, buy some.

As for animal taming, he only planned to buy some basic knowledge books back home.Such books are not expensive.

If there are specialized animal training books on turtles and buffaloes, and the price is right, you can also consider buying them.

Certain types of animal training books are generally expensive, but they are full of useful information.

For example, the Green Devil's Bee Breeding Manual he bought contained a lot of useful information.

When the master and servant were about to arrive at Black Tiger City, Xiao Qing frequently looked in one direction.There, her grandfather is buried.

However, seeing that Qin Niu did not stop, she followed behind him silently.

Along the way, swarms of locusts can be seen everywhere.

They were munching on all the food they could find.

The stall market outside Black Tiger City was obviously much deserted than before.

Qin Niu discovered that many of the vegetables sold by vegetable farmers had insect holes.

"Auntie, how do you sell this cabbage?"

"One penny and two catties."

"It's been bitten by bugs, and it's still so expensive?"

Qin Niu couldn't help but secretly clicked his tongue when he heard the price quoted by the vegetable farmer.

It has increased at least five times.

In the past, one penny could buy ten pounds.

The least valuable ones are cabbage and radish, because of their high yield and short planting period.Moreover, the planting technology is not high and every household can grow it.

"Young student, I'm pretty good at this! Look at how the cabbage sold by others has been chewed up! If you like eating it, it's best to buy more now, because the price will increase in a few days. Those goddamn locusts, It’s so dark that no one can get over it, and no crops can be planted. If this continues, there will be no place to buy it for even one penny or two catties, let alone one tael of silver or one catty.”

The aunt cursed those evil locusts.

"If that's the case, I'll be worried. I can live without cabbage, but without food, I'll starve to death in two or three days. Let me look at it again. Your price is too expensive."

Qin Niu took Xiaoqing and continued to move forward.

There are various vendors on both sides of the official road shouting.There are firewood sellers, vegetable sellers, fish sellers, almost everything.

"Fishing nets, small-eye fishing nets, cost a penny and half a meter, half a meter sells for only a penny, a magic weapon to ward off locusts and a good helper to protect crops, come and buy it!"

A middle-aged man with tanned skin was hawking woven fishing nets.

One penny and half a meter is simply a money grab.

However, this thing can indeed effectively ward off locusts, so it’s not surprising that the price has skyrocketed.

"Medicinal wine is an anthelmintic medicinal wine made from a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors. It is especially effective against locusts. Spray a little and it can ward off locusts for more than twelve hours. It only costs three pennies a pound. If the effect is not good, it will cost you nothing."

Yes, this one is more expensive.

Ordinary people may not be able to afford the deworming medicinal wine that costs three pennies per pound.

Landowners are careful with their budgets and it is unlikely that they will buy in large quantities.

Buy some at most and go back to protect important crops, flowers, and herbs.

The key is that many precious flowers and herbs are particularly delicate.Spray the insect repellent wine to prevent the insects, but the flowers and plants will wither quickly.

Qin Niu secretly observed along the way and found that prices were generally rising.

In particular, the prices of vegetables, fishing nets, insect repellent wine, rackets and other items have increased significantly.

The senior leaders of the Black Tiger Gang should be under great pressure now.

If the locust plague cannot be stopped, the common people will be doomed, and the Black Tiger Gang will also be doomed if they lose their foundation.

The people are like water, and the officials are like boats.

Without water, the Black Tiger Gang is equivalent to being drained from the bottom of the cauldron, and it will not be long before it falls apart.

Where do the salaries paid to officials and soldiers come from?
They were all paid tribute by the people in the area under the jurisdiction of the Black Tiger Gang.

Without the people, where would they go to collect taxes?

I'm afraid that the leaders of the Black Tiger Gang have to farm the land themselves to have food to eat.

Qin Niu was not in a hurry to enter the city.

This time when I came to Black Tiger City, my status and strength were completely different from before.He also became much calmer and calmer.

The changes in people's moods are amazing.The city is still this city, and the people are still the same, but he has completely lost the nervousness and timidity he felt when he first entered the city.

The cultivation of the first level of Houtian realm is not very high, but it is enough for him to feel calm and at ease when facing the mighty black-armored soldiers.

Because, in a real fight, one-on-one, he already has the strength to massacre ordinary black-armored soldiers.

The hundred-refined black armor on the black-armored soldier was as fragile as a piece of paper in front of his ink knife.

He looked at the thick city wall behind the black armored army, and there were many notices posted at the door.

Those stamped with the red official seal belong to the official list.

Most of them offer rewards to capture important criminals.

The area under the jurisdiction of the Black Tiger Gang has a population of more than one million, and cases such as murders and fatal fights occur from time to time.

There are also some powerful thieves who may steal money from banks or government treasury for money.

As long as these people are not caught on the spot, they may fly away or hide in the countryside and other places.

Catching them is no easy task.

As a result, there were more and more official articles on the city wall.

In addition to official announcements, there are also notices posted by private individuals.

Densely packed, very many.

Those who are qualified to post private notices on the official list must be rich or noble.

Otherwise, tearing up the notice would be a minor offense, and it would not be impossible to directly charge one or more of the offenders, and be arrested and imprisoned.

"Xiao Qing, let's see if there is any reward for reviving the medicinal herbs!"

Qin Niu asked Xiaoqing to help search together.

I didn't expect it to exist.

After some effort, he found one.

"I have a medicinal herb that is over a hundred years old. Unfortunately, it has been infected by the epidemic recently. The leaves have wilted and the stems have black spots. I have tried many methods but none of them work. I am looking for a folk expert to save my beloved herb. If it can be saved, I will try again. Remuneration of more than ten gold. Wang Sheng, No. 17, Longwang Lane, west of the city."

At first glance, the contents of this list are exciting.

The reward is at least ten gold.

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, and ten taels of gold is equal to one hundred taels of silver.

This is no small sum.

However, after Qin Niu looked at it, he seemed a little hesitant.

"Master, isn't this list very good? Why don't you take it off?"

Xiaoqing asked in confusion.

"There's something unconscionable about it and I'm worried about falling into a scam."

Qin Niu's Changchun Gong is very powerful, and he can treat ordinary medicinal herbs without any problem.

What's more, now that he has cultivated to the first level of the acquired world, his skills are quite profound, and he should have the healing herbs at his fingertips.

The key is, after reviving the medicinal herbs, can I get the reward?

"Herbs that are a hundred years old are only worth about ten taels of silver. They also have to be high-end herbs such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. Think about it, after a cure is cured by a herb that is a hundred years old, the minimum reward is a hundred taels of silver. There is such a thing in the world Herbs?”

Qin Niu analyzed the irrationality for her.

He is not a fish.

The fish can only see the bait but not the hook, but he is cautious and careful every step of the way, and never gets confused because of the huge benefits.

"There seems to be some truth to it. However, herbs that are hundreds of years old, if they are very rare, are really worth more than a hundred taels of silver. Ginseng and Ganoderma can only be regarded as ordinary high-level herbs. Some of them can greatly improve the cultivation level, or help beast pets advance. Herbs, or herbs that continuously produce special fruits and leaves, may be worth far more than a hundred taels of silver."

Xiaoqing thought for a while and gave his own opinion.

"Then take a look at this address. Most of the people living in the west of the city are poor people. Although I don't know much about Longwang Lane, it's unlikely that the people living there are wealthy people. If you can afford a reward of a hundred taels of silver, you can buy it long ago. He went to live in the rich area in the east of the city."

Qin Niu raised the second doubt.

The east has always been associated with nobility, and there has been a saying that purple energy comes from the east since ancient times.

Even if it is an ordinary house, the owner lives in the east wing, and the guests or servants live in the west wing.

Black Tiger City is almost the same.

The dignitaries who have some power in the city, or the wealthy businessmen, will try their best to buy a house in the east of the city and squeeze into the circle of powerful people.

"How about I go and inquire about it later! If there is any problem, we can find other jobs."

Xiaoqing has lived in the city for many years. Despite her young age, she has a strong ability to survive.

Become familiar with the situation in Black Tiger City.

"Alright."

Qin Niu searched around and found more than a dozen listings for people looking for people to treat herbs and flowers. This one offered the highest reward.

Others only give a few coins, or one or two taels of silver.

He thought it was too little and looked down upon him.

If you work hard once, you have to earn at least ten taels or more before it is worth his money.

After all, the less people know about this special ability, the better.

It's not a big danger if people find out he has this special ability, he just doesn't want to get into trouble.Today this person came to his door and begged him for healing herbs, and tomorrow the other one came to his door and begged him for healing herbs.

It's going to be annoying.

If you don't agree, it's easy to offend people.

If he agrees, his cultivation will be delayed.

If someone is unreasonable, he may be forced to stay in the house.

Therefore, the less people know about this special ability, the better.

He took off the unreasonable paper and walked into the city with Xiaoqing.

"Stop, wait in line and pay the city fee. This road is not for you to walk on."

A helper stood in front and shouted coldly at the two of them.

Qin Niu didn't waste any time and showed his cards right away.
