Shen Tuqi picked up the teapot on the table and shook it. Sure enough, it was empty. He took out the eighth-level spiritual tea from his storage ring and poured it on it. He asked Yan Feiyue to fill the teapot, and finally a blazing fire from the dragon core swept across the bottom of the pot.
The green smoke rises, the fragrance of tea spreads, and the eighth-level spiritual tea is ready.
"Shopkeeper, please use -" Shen Tuqi gave everyone here a drink.
The shopkeeper picked up the teacup, looked at Qi Guanyu and the others, smiled sheepishly, took a sip, and praised intoxicatedly: "Good tea!"
Yan Feiyue and the others smiled kindly. They naturally hope that their good things will be appreciated by others.
"To be honest with you fellow Taoists, I have just advanced to the sixth level of Talisman Master, and my skills are still very unfamiliar. Are fellow Taoists also a Talisman Master?" The shopkeeper still remembered the previous question of Fellow Taoist Weisheng, and he did not forget to ask what he was most concerned about. question.
"Yes, I just advanced to the eighth level -" Wei Sheng Suwen did not hide his true situation. He must find out the bottom of this Furong Town!
"Level 8!" The shopkeeper exclaimed, his eyes almost popping out of his sockets, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"I'm new here. I would like to ask the shopkeeper to introduce the situation in Furong Town -" Wei Sheng Suwen said with a smile.
The shopkeeper put his hand on his chest, restrained his exaggerated expression, and then introduced:
"Furong Town is one of the most fringe towns on the lower level of the Immortal Realm. It represents the way small families live and practice together. The highest cultivation levels of monks are generally in the Mahayana stage, and the level of skill inheritance is also relatively backward. The highest level is Only the seventh level."
Although the shopkeeper doesn't know the identities of the people across from them, the fact that one of them is an eighth-level talisman master means that this group of people is definitely not simple, so it's better not to offend them easily.
After Wei Sheng Suwen and Qi Guanyu looked at each other, they looked at the shopkeeper and said kindly:
"I would like to ask the shopkeeper, a few of us want to open a shop here to sell some seventh- and eighth-level elixirs, magic tools, talismans, etc. Do you think any monks will come to buy them?"
"Yes! Yes! Of course there is!" The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly, what a great opportunity this is! How come no one buys it?
Looking at the puzzled expressions of the fellow Taoists opposite, the shopkeeper enthusiastically explained:
"Some fellow Taoists don't know that although we have Mahayana monks here, the cultivation resources cannot keep up with the growth of the monks. As a result, these ambitious monks can only be trapped in Furong Town and live a stable life.
If they are equipped with eighth-level magic weapons, elixirs, and talismans, they still have a chance to go to larger towns and win better opportunities. "
"Are there many dangers in big towns?" If they have to be fully equipped before setting off, then are these monks a little too courageous? This is what Longxin thinks in his heart, but of course he does not say it out loud.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he glanced at Longxin in surprise. He was surprised at first, then nodded in understanding, and then said:
"I guess fellow Taoist has never experienced these things. The Immortal Realm is vast in area, rich in resources, has many monks, and naturally there are many monsters and beasts.
The distance between towns is not short, and it is inevitable to encounter monsters that cannot be dealt with, or monks who block the way and rob.
Don't look at the small Furong City. It is also protected by a tenth-level city protection formation to prevent the invasion of high-level monsters. "
Yan Feiyue and Tong Yi looked at each other, not knowing who the shopkeeper across the way imagined them to be.
"I just don't know what the purchasing power of the monks here is?" Qi Guanyu asked.
"Sir, although the cultivation level of the monks here is not very high, their family wealth is still quite rich. Every few decades, the major families in the city will organize caravans to go to the big towns to purchase some cultivation resources and join in. Some auctions are not very frequent due to the inevitable loss of personnel and resources along the way.
If you decide to open your shop in Furong City, the business will definitely be good, and Furong Town is not far from the surrounding towns. When the news is spread, the monks from the surrounding towns will naturally come here. "
Although the shopkeeper's cultivation level is not high, he still has good eyesight. He can tell at a glance that this person is the most powerful among them from the pressure and demeanor.
Tong Yi saw that the shopkeeper's highly recommended attitude was indeed sincere and serious, so she asked:
"I'm new here and don't know much about the shops in Furong Town. Can you please recommend a shop to me?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he suddenly felt that his opportunity had come, and boldly recommended: "The shop next to the inn is unused at home. If some Taoist friends don't give up, they can settle here first -"
"Then let's go take a look now?" Yan Feiyue asked tentatively.
"Fellow Taoists, please—" The shopkeeper didn't hesitate, immediately stood up, opened the door, and led the way for a few people.
Standing in the shop, Longxin looked at the structure, which was similar to that of the inn next door. The lobby on the first floor only had a counter and a few simple tables and chairs.
Looking from the bottom up, the second and third floors are guest rooms. This layout is a little unreasonable. After all, they want to open a shop, not an inn, so it is somewhat troublesome!
After browsing around, Wei Sheng Suwen was very satisfied with this shop. The existing furnishings in the room were all new and the structure was reasonable. It could save them a lot of trouble, so he asked:
"Shopkeeper, I wonder how much the rent is?"
"This shop is considered to be in the best location on this street, and the area is large enough, so the annual rent is two thousand top-quality spiritual stones. If you rent it short-term, it will be at least ten years. The deposit is 10,000 top-quality spiritual stones. The total is Thirty thousand pieces of top-quality spiritual stones need to be paid in one lump sum." The shopkeeper did not notice that Qi Guanyu and the others were short of money, so he said very honestly.
"..." Loongxin's previous dissatisfaction was poured down by a basin of cold water, and she was immediately disheartened. She was not qualified at all and she disliked this shop, okay?
"Okay, these are thirty low-grade spiritual jades. We would like to discuss the store design here. Can the shopkeeper make it easier for me -"
When Qi Guanyu saw Weisheng Suwen asked about the price, he knew that he had to settle on this one. He thought that his business ability was not as good as that of Weisheng, so he gave Lingyu without any doubts.
"I won't disturb these fellow Taoists. I just want to unsubscribe the hotel room?" the shopkeeper asked before leaving.
"Please, shopkeeper, please back out! I can almost clean up a few rooms for people to live in tonight. I will go to settle the bill with the shopkeeper now -" Shen Tuqi said. He has spent such a large amount of spiritual jade, so naturally he can save money when he can. .
"Fellow Taoist, you are very polite. We just sat down for a while and drank a pot of spiritual tea. The spiritual tea leaves were brought with us. I drank a cup of it. How could I accept the spiritual stones from these fellow Taoists? Xiao Xiu then I'll take my leave now -" The shopkeeper was willing to accept it, and left in a hurry after saying that.
After confirming that the shopkeeper had left, Shen Tuqi laid an isolation formation for the entire store, then sat next to Loong Xin, looked at Wei Sheng Suwen sitting opposite, and said:
"Cousin, tell me what you think!"
"From top to bottom, there are six guest rooms on the third floor, three of which are our bedrooms, and three of which are training rooms. Tongtong and I draw talismans and refine elixirs. There is no conflict between the two of us. A training room for one person;
Shentu and Xinxin's refining formations and magical weapons do not conflict, and some of the materials can complement each other, so the two of you are in the same room;
Finally, there is Guan Yu and A Yue's room, and there is no conflict between them. "Weisheng Suwen looked at several people for advice.
Qi Guanyu nodded and said, "Okay, where is the second floor?"
"There are six guest rooms on the second floor, one is used as a conference room, two are used as guest rooms, and three are used as VIP reception rooms; as for the lobby on the first floor, it is used to display goods." Weisheng Suwen explained.
"Okay, that's it. Then you can assign tasks to us now!" Tong Yi thinks this arrangement is good.
"After a while, Guan Yu and A Yue went out to buy some shelves and change all the furnishings in the house that needed to be replaced;
Shentu, you will add a defensive formation to our store later;
As for Tong Yi and Xin Xin, you two should first take your hands and refine some of the remaining sixth- and seventh-level materials and spiritual plants;
I went to various major shops in the city to collect prices. "Weisheng Suwen arranged in an orderly manner.
"OK! Start taking action!" Yan Feiyue made a fist with one hand and cheered everyone on.
The six people worked in groups, Wei Sheng Suwen was the first to go out; Qi Guanyu and Yan Feiyue were the second to go out after putting away all the unnecessary furniture and furnishings in the store.
Shen Tuqi originally had a drawn eighth-level defensive formation and set it up directly at the entrance of the store; Longxin and Tong Yi returned to their respective training rooms and started working.
The innkeeper kept an eye on the door. When he saw someone coming out, he immediately walked out to check. He saw the tallest and strongest monk Shentu among the six people setting up a formation. He couldn't help but curiously said:
"Fellow Taoist or Formation Master?"
"Reluctantly entering the eighth level -" Shen Tuqi didn't hide anything. After all, the store will open for business in two days, and there must be an explanation for the continuous supply of goods in the store.
"..." Now it was the shopkeeper's turn to be dumbfounded. It turned out to be another eighth level. Then he asked a little whimsically:
"Among fellow Taoists and our group, there won't be an eighth-level alchemist and an eighth-level weapon refiner, right?"
Shen Tuqi didn't expect that the shopkeeper would have such awareness. He nodded in surprise and said: "Exactly-"
"..." The shopkeeper looked like the sky was about to fall. He was really just asking casually. There really was no need to be so serious!
"Please ask the shopkeeper to take more care of him in the future -" Shen Tuqi finished setting up the formation, clasped his fists towards the shopkeeper and cupped his hands.
"Hahaha——, fellow Taoist, you are joking!" The shopkeeper felt embarrassed and cupped his hands.
Before it got dark, Yan Feiyue and the others finally came back. Weisheng Suwen also brought back a plaque with the words "Grocery Store for Difficult and Miscellaneous Diseases" engraved on it.
"The three of you are finally back. Xinxin and Tongtong haven't come out yet. In the afternoon, I cleaned the whole store by myself." Shen Tuqi looked at the few people who were tired of work and kindly gave them He poured a cup of spiritual tea and complained mercilessly.
