Chapter 50: Worry-relieving Grocery Store, the hot sale of Gonglong powder

Thinking of his own pocket and the insufficient supply of spiritual power when refining Lei Lingcui, Zhang Wei once again lamented the importance of spiritual land to immortal cultivators.

If he had set up the formation on the spiritual veins and relied on the spiritual power supplied by the spiritual veins, unless all the spiritual materials were destroyed by lightning, there would never be a lack of stamina.

But it's useless to worry about this. Zhang Wei is just a casual cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining. The treasures that he can covet after foundation building are still too far away from him, so he can only use this stupid method.

After staying in his hometown for a while and refining several batches of Bigu Pill, Zhang Wei left home with his product and prepared to discuss franchising with Xiao Yunshan.

But just when Zhang Wei was about to go to Xiao Yunshan's house, a voice stopped him in the street again.

"Master Zhang, please stay!"

"Um?"

Zhang Wei looked back and saw Shan Guangxue walking towards him quickly, so he asked: "So it's fellow Taoist Shan? What's the matter?"

Shan Guangxue seemed to have been looking for Zhang Wei for a long time, and after taking a few breaths, he sighed: "Alas... this is not the place to talk. I would also like to ask Master Zhang to come and talk to me at the Luo Chamber of Commerce."

Zhang Wei also wanted to see what medicine Shan Guangxue was selling in his gourd, so he went to the Luo Chamber of Commerce with him.

The Luo Chamber of Commerce is located in a good location, but the things it sells are not outstanding in Izumobo City, and most of them are mundane things.

But the advantage is that it is large and complete. It is almost a must-have place for casual cultivators in Izumobo City to buy daily necessities. Simply put, it is a large supermarket at the village and town level in Zhang Wei's previous life.

Zhang Wei was greeted respectfully to the room upstairs by Shan Guangxue. As soon as Shan Guangxue came up, he asked straight to the point: "I wonder if Master would like to do another business with our Luo Chamber of Commerce?"

Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shan Guangxue smiled proudly and said: "The thing is like this. There are two more worshipers in the worship courtyard who have broken through to the late stage of Qi refining. They also want to go to Longmen Chao to experience it, and they also want to buy two Moyun Shuttles. …”

Zhang Wei almost laughed when he heard this and asked: "Is this really true?"

"Forehead……"

Seeing Zhang Wei like this, Shan Guangxue felt something bad in his heart.

Then I heard Zhang Wei mockingly say: "But how did I hear that your worship house was robbed and more than a dozen worshipers lost Mo Yunsuo?"

Shan Guangxue: "..."

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, his last face was exposed. Shan Guangxue could only smile bitterly and said: "Master is really powerful. I originally wanted to save face for the Chamber of Commerce, but I didn't expect that Master, you actually know it." ”

That's right, Mo Yunsuo was lost, and he lost it in the enshrinement courtyard.

It stands to reason that such a shameful thing would not be disclosed to the outside world, but who gave Mr. Zhang a wide network?

Xiao Yunshan, a first-level high-grade spiritual talisman master, was invited by Yun Guo Enshrinement Institute to investigate the case that night. Wouldn't he be able to use this matter to talk about it with Zhang Wei and others afterwards?

Zhang Wei sighed with difficulty and said: "I want to help you too, but it's only been two months since the Longmen tide, and I have a lot of things to do now. I'm busy..."

As soon as Shan Guangxue heard this, he knew that this man was going to increase the money again. He could only grit his teeth and made an offer: "Thirty-five thousand taels of silver!"

After saying that, he added with a sad face: "Master, I really can't afford more! The previous 30,000 taels have almost used up our shrine's budget for this year! I had to ask my grandfather to sue my grandma for the 35,000 taels. Squeezed out!”

Zhang Wei didn't believe a word of what the other party said, but now Zhang Wei had another purpose, intending to get involved with the Luo Chamber of Commerce, the largest wholesale station in Izumobo City, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Thirty-five thousand taels." ...Okay, I’ll suffer a loss!”

Shan Guangxue: "..."

What did you suffer!

After Shan Guangxue handed over the deposit as usual, Zhang Wei asked again: "By the way, Shan Daoyou, do you know which store in Fang City sells it?"

Shan Guangxue's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "Master, do you want to live in Fangshi? Our Luo Chamber of Commerce is willing to..."

"I prefer to go it alone."

Zhang Wei quickly interrupted Shan Guangxue's invitation. In fact, during this period, major chambers of commerce and even Yunshangbaolou asked Xiao Yunshan to send him invitations. Each of them opened an invitation that made casual cultivators very tempted. price.

After all, Zhang Wei is the only weapon refiner in Izumobo City who can refine flying magic weapons, and his name is a sign!

Unfortunately, Zhang Wei had many secrets and was not short of money. He also wanted to take the Zhang family into a family of immortals, so he refused them all.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Shan Guangxue's eyes when he heard this, but he still said: "Izumobo City is said to be small, but there are a total of thirty-five shops.

In addition to the properties of the major families and the Yunshang Sect, there are only twelve properties owned by casual cultivators, most of which are ancestral properties. It might be difficult to get them to give up their shop..."

Then Shan Guangxue patted his head, seemed to have remembered something and said: "By the way, I remembered that there is a shop, and the shopkeeper is selling ideas. But that person's request is a bit strict..."

Zhang Wei asked: "What are the requirements?"

Shan Guangxue said: "She said that the buyer should sponsor her to become a first-class high-grade weapon refiner!"

"Are we still traveling together?"

Zhang Wei thought for a while and said: "Let's go and take a look first. If the matter can be completed, from now on, fellow Taoist Shan, if you come to my store to buy magical treasures, I will give you a 20% discount."

"One little thing after another!"

Shan Guangxue smiled quickly, and then took Zhang Wei to the store for sale.

Unlike the Luo Chamber of Commerce and other places with good geographical locations, the place Shan Guangxue took Zhang Wei to was in a relatively remote part of the commercial street.

Izumobo City is not a big place, and Zhang Wei has already visited here many times, but he just has no impression of this store.

Moreover, the storefront always smelled of poverty. It was obvious that there had been no business for a long time, or else there would be no money for renovations.

Zhang Wei looked at the signboard and saw five dusty large characters of Dong's Refining Pavilion engraved on it, showing the past glory of this store.

According to Shan Guangxue, the person who originally opened this shop was a master of weapon refining who used his Qi refining skills to refine second-level magic weapons. He was very popular in Izumobo City.

It is a pity that he did not obtain the foundation of spiritual achievement in the end, and died at the age of 100, and his descendants have become worse with each generation. Until now, the Weapon Refining Pavilion, which was once full of friends in Izumobo City, has become empty.

"Master, please come in!"

Shan Guangxue welcomed Zhang Wei in, and then shouted toward the inside: "Fellow Daoist Dong! Fellow Daoist Dong!"

"Coming, coming!"

A clear female voice came from the back of the store, and then a woman in yellow in her early twenties ran out of the back room and asked, "What do the two guests want? Hey, Fellow Daoist Shan, why are you here?"

"I'll introduce you to an opportunity!" Shan Guangxue said, revealing Zhang Wei behind him.

At this time, Zhang Wei also looked at Dong Jingjing with some surprise. He did not expect that the current owner of this shop was actually a female weapon refiner.

Dong Jingjing has an oval face, but her facial features are quite regular, and she is not very tall. If she dresses up, she will be a loli internet celebrity in Zhang Wei's previous life.

But this cultivation level...

"Qi refining...initial stage?"

Zhang Wei thought to himself, with this level of cultivation, would the other party have enough spiritual power to refine a magic weapon? By asking others to help her become a first-level high-grade weapon refiner, she actually wanted others to bear her future training expenses, right?

Shan Guangxue introduced: "This is Master Zhang Xiaofan, who is interested in acquiring your shop!"

Dong Jingjing's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she walked forward excitedly and asked, "Are you Zhang Xiaofan? That first-level, top-grade weapon master who can also refine the Moyun Shuttle!"

"Exactly."

Dong Jingjing quickly said a blessing and introduced herself: "Little girl Tong Jingjing, I have met my senior!"

Zhang Wei lowered his head and looked at the calluses on the other person's hand, and asked, "Are you also a weapon refiner?"

Dong Jingjing said awkwardly: "Yes... I'm just not very talented. So far I can only refine two first-grade magic weapons, but I am good at maintaining and repairing magic weapons!"

"First-order first-class product..."

Zhang Wei was speechless, thinking that no wonder the shop was so lonely. It turned out that he could not make ends meet.

If the first-grade magic weapon is used for fighting, it is better to buy two ordinary weapons, and then use the same money to buy two spiritual talismans, which is more cost-effective.

Therefore, most of the first-grade magic weapons now are refrigerators, stoves and the like in Xiao Yunshan's community of immortal cultivators.

In other words, Dong Jingjing is an electrical repairman.

"I do intend to buy your shop, but we still need to discuss the requirements for funding you to become a first-level high-grade weapon refiner." Zhang Wei said.

"I can give you five thousand taels of spiritual stones in this shop, and then give you three first-level top-grade magic weapons, including my masterpiece Moyun Suo. As for the requirement to train you to become a top-grade weapon refiner, how about giving up on it? "

"this……"

Dong Jingjing was a little moved. After all, the Dong family was now in decline. The price of five thousand taels of spiritual stones and three first-grade high-grade magic weapons was more than enough to buy this shop.

And once I have this money, I will be able to become the wealthiest casual cultivator in Izumobo City. It is not a delusion to practice to the late stage of Qi training in the future.

But……

Dong Jingjing smiled bitterly and said: "Senior, I am at this early stage of Qi refining, and I can't protect you even if you give me so much money..."

Zhang Wei pondered for a while and said: "I didn't think carefully. In that case, can I hire you to help me run the store?"

"Hire?"

Dong Jingjing immediately understood that she could still live in this store, but she had changed from the owner's status to an employee.

But Dong Jingjing is very satisfied, because under the protection of Zhang Wei, a late-stage Qi refining and first-level high-grade weapon refiner, she can practice with peace of mind without having to worry about being targeted by someone who wants to do it!

However, Dong Jingjing still wants to make further progress.

Dong Jingjing asked: "Senior, can I learn weapon refining from you?"

Zhang Wei shook his head and said: "There are also a lot of resources required for refining weapons. You should just use your five thousand taels of spirit stones to practice honestly. When will you reach the later stage of Qi refining and have enough cultivation?" Let’s try this road again.”

However, Dong Jingjing said: "Wait a minute, senior! I have something here that you should be interested in! As long as you accept me as your apprentice and teach me how to make weapons, it will be yours!"

With that said, he ran back to the back room, then took out a jade slip and handed it to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei took it and took a look, his pupils suddenly shrank.

The second-level first-grade magic weapon, the purple smoke incense burner?

It turned out to be the refining formula for a second-level magic weapon!

Dong Jingjing said: "Originally, my Dong family had three pieces, but since our family declined, two of them were sold in order to exchange for cultivation resources. This is the last piece. Master Zhang, I use this for my apprenticeship ceremony. Is that possible?”

Zhang Wei asked with a smile: "Do you know that ordinary people are not guilty and are guilty of possessing a jade? This magic weapon formula must be worth at least a thousand taels of spiritual stones. Are you not afraid of me robbing it?"

Dong Jingjing said embarrassedly: "In fact, I have heard of your reputation among the casual cultivators in the market a long time ago, otherwise I would not have taken this thing out..."

I didn't expect that my good reputation would help me here again.

Zhang Wei couldn't help but laugh and said: "You have made a condition that I can't refuse now. Well, I can promise to teach you to refine weapons, but I can only advance your expenses for five years!"

Dong Jingjing gritted her teeth and said: "Okay!"

After that, she was about to prostrate herself to Zhang Wei to become his disciple.

"Disciple Dong Jingjing, meet the master!"

But Zhang Wei stopped her.

Zhang Wei said, "Our relationship is not that of a master and apprentice. I am just doing things for money. You can call me Master from now on."

Dong Jingjing said with some disappointment, "Yes!"

Shan Guangxue, who was silent on the side, immediately smiled and congratulated, "Congratulations to Master Zhang for buying a good place and getting a good apprentice. When will your shop open? I will definitely come to support you!"

"Wait until I contact a good person and renovate the shop before opening it." Zhang Wei looked at the bleak and dilapidated decorations around him and said, which made Dong Jingjing on the side a little embarrassed.

Shan Guangxue patted his chest and said, "Then leave this matter to me. I promise to do it beautifully for you, Master!"

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Shan!" Zhang Wei thanked Shan Guangxue.

After completing the transfer of the shop with Dong Jingjing at the Fangshi Management Office, Zhang Wei went directly to Xiao Yunshan's home and told him about it.

"What? You said you bought a storefront?"

Xiao Yunshan's eyes widened and he shouted: "You saved enough money so quickly?"

Zhang Wei: "I have a little family wealth..."

"Then your family wealth is really rich."

Xiao Yunshan's eyes were almost filled with lemons, and he sighed: "Oh, people are so annoying when they compare themselves to others... I have been working hard in Chuyunfang City for more than ten years, and I still make a living by guarding my street stall. As a result, you have only been here for a year, and you have bought a storefront!"

Zhang Wei smiled and asked: "Brother Xiao, do you want to join? My store not only plans to sell the magic weapons I refine, but also sells some elixirs refined by my younger generations. If you join, the casual cultivators will not have to go to other places when they come to our place in the future."

"Hmm?" Xiao Yunshan became interested.

Zhang Wei said, "I don't need your money. I will set aside a counter for you two in the store! It will also attract more customers for me."

Xiao Yunshan immediately grabbed Zhang Wei's hand with a smile and said, "Xiao Fan, I was right about your friend! Come, let's go to Zuixianju for a drink!"

"Go!"

Qin Xiaoling rolled her eyes at her husband and asked nervously, "Xiao Fan, you said you still sell elixirs? What kind of elixirs do you sell?"

If the elixirs Zhang Wei sells overlap with the ones she refines, it will inevitably affect her business.

Qin Xiaoling cannot help but pay attention to her own interests.

"Well, this is it..." Zhang Wei smiled and took out a jade bottle and opened it, and immediately a scent of elixir escaped.

"Bigu Pill?"

Qin Xiaoling sniffed the fragrance of the pill carefully and said in shock: "This medicine is... so strong! Did you use monster meat to make it?"

"No, it's just a newly developed formula."

Zhang Wei took out a bag of mealworm powder and put it on the table and said: "This is what we use to make pills instead of beef..."

Seeing this, Xiao Yunshan and his wife each took a little and put it in their mouths, carefully tasting the mystery in it, and asked at the same time: "What is this?"

"Bow Dragon Powder."

"Bow Dragon Powder?"

Xiao Yunshan and his wife looked confused. They had never heard of this kind of thing.

Zhang Wei said: "This is what our family made. It can be used as feed to feed livestock and monsters, and it can also replace beef to make pills. The effect is quite good after you eat it."

Zhang Wei did not tell the raw materials of the bow dragon powder. He was afraid that he would be beaten to death by Xiao Yunshan and his wife.

Xiao Yunshan and his wife did not feel surprised, nor did they have the idea of ​​​​inquiring. After all, everyone has secrets. If you dig deep, you may not even be friends.

They just need to know that the bow dragon powder is very useful.

Zhang Wei said excitedly: "How about it, Brother Xiao and Sister Qin, are you interested in doing this with me?"

Qin Xiaoling and Xiao Yunshan looked at each other, then smiled and said: "If it were anyone else, we wouldn't dare to agree, but since it's you, Xiaofan, who invited us, we have no objection!"

The decoration of the store progressed rapidly with the help of Shan Guangxue, the local snake. This agent of the Luo's Chamber of Commerce also spent a lot of money to make friends with Zhang Wei.

In just seven days, the originally bleak and dilapidated Dong's Refining Pavilion was completely renewed. When the plaque of "Solving Worry Grocery Store" was hung on the door, Zhang Wei's first industry was officially opened.

On the opening day, many casual cultivators who had maintained and refined magic weapons here came to support Zhang Wei, and even the shopkeepers of other shops came.

On the one hand, they came to congratulate, and on the other hand, they also came to investigate the impact of Zhang Wei's "Solving Worry Grocery Store" on their business.

However, when they entered the store, they found that the bulk of the goods Zhang Wei sold, in addition to the magic weapons he refined, were bags of "yellow noodles".

Someone asked curiously: "Excuse me, Brother Zhang, what are you selling? Food?"

"I named the feed for livestock as Gonglong powder. Of course, it is also good for human consumption, and its nutritional value is very high. If you have monsters at home, you can add some of this to their food." Zhang Wei introduced.

Then, Zhang Wei took out another mealworm fasting pill and said, "This is our special fasting pill, one or two spirit stones per pill, but it is absolutely worth the money! This bottle is for you!"

When everyone was about to complain about Zhang Wei's fasting pills being so expensive, which idiot would buy them, they smelled a strong fragrance of the pill.

This medicine... seems to be much stronger than the fasting pills on the market?

Some casual cultivators and shopkeepers took it without believing in it, and then their expressions immediately became exciting.

One fasting pill can last for a month, and the effect is more than four times that of the fasting pills on the market, but the price is only three times.

It seems that it is not unacceptable, especially with the Dragon Gate Tide approaching, this fasting pill that takes up less space and provides more energy will undoubtedly be more popular.

The shopkeepers of some shops that mainly sell elixirs saw the value of it and said with some resentment: "Friend Zhang, you are going to completely swallow up the business of the Bigu Pills in the market."

Although the Bigu Pills business is not very impressive, it can generate tens of thousands of Lingshi in the Chuyun Market every year, and it is extremely stable!

Although it is a bit alarmist to monopolize the Bigu Pills business, it is certain that most of the Bigu Pills business will be controlled.

When the shopkeepers and casual cultivators present thought that Zhang Wei could make a small profit of ten thousand Lingshi every year, they felt so distressed that they couldn't breathe.

It's more painful to watch him make money than to lose money yourself!

Zhang Wei could only smile at this.

He couldn't give up making money just because of these people's words, right? The market is like a battlefield, and it's good that he didn't use despicable means to compete.

Then they exchanged greetings for a while, and these people bought some Gonglong powder and specialty Bigu Pills and left.

Some wanted to try whether the bow dragon powder was helpful for raising monsters or livestock as Zhang Wei said; the other part tried to crack Zhang Wei's formula for the Bigu Pill to find out the secret.

However, after their alchemists used up many bottles of Bigu Pills, they could only infer that the bow dragon powder and some other things were used in it, but they didn't know what the bow dragon powder was.

But there is no doubt that the bow dragon powder is indeed a good thing! Zhang Wei did not lie, it is very good for both humans and livestock!

Especially for some birds and monsters, the effect is almost comparable to some spiritual grains!

So naturally, Zhang Wei's store ushered in a wave of purchases not long after it opened, and most of the customers were foundation-building families with spiritual veins.

They all raised some rare birds and animals to a greater or lesser extent. This kind of feed, which is lower in value but can replace spiritual grains, can save them a lot of costs.

The hot sales of Gonglong powder also boosted the sales of other products in the store, and even Xiao Yunshan and Qin Xiaoling's talisman pill business also improved a lot.

Compared with the hot sales of Gonglong powder and special fasting pills, Zhang Wei's magic weapon business seemed shabby. Except for a few casual cultivators who came to ask about Moyunsuo, Zhang Wei didn't receive any business.

Obviously, the weapon refiner is his main business.

In this way, the business of the grocery store gradually got on track, until one day, a figure that Zhang Wei and others hadn't seen for a long time walked into the worry-free grocery store.

"Xiaofan, congratulations!"
