Xiaobai said sensibly, "The money I borrowed from Mr. Gong is not in vain. I don't go out at home and it doesn't matter if I don't wear fur clothes. Sister, just borrow twenty immortal crystals from Mr. Qiu."
"Twenty fairy crystals are not enough. You can't stay away from home all the time. Moreover, cultivating fairy grass requires a certain amount of money to buy fairy grass seeds. Don't worry, I know it well and won't borrow a lot."
Hearing what Sister A said, Xiaobai couldn't refute anymore. He had borrowed six hundred immortal crystals, so that's all.
Three days later, the frostbite on Xu Chunniang's body was almost healed, so she went down the mountain again and walked towards Mr. Gong's residence.
Although there is not much immortal energy in her body, it can be barely sustained for a few hours by turning it into laws to protect herself from the cold.
After going down the mountain, she hurriedly hurriedly walked slowly, and finally stepped into Elder Gong's stone house before the immortal energy was exhausted.
Mr. Gong didn't seem surprised by Xu Chunniang's arrival. He just raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "It's a coincidence that you came here. If you come half a day later, you won't be able to see me."
Xu Chunniang's heart moved, "Is Mr. Gong going out?"
Elder Gong stroked his beard and smiled, "Yes, after a few days of busy work, I have finished processing all the bark of the cedar trees. I have a backlog of goods on hand. I am planning to go to Fuyu City to dispose of these goods."
Fuyu City is the closest immortal city to Zhangwei Mountain. Influenced by Zhangwei Mountain, Fuyu City has a cold climate with snow falling all year round. Some Zhangwei Mountain specialties can be sold at high prices in Fuyu City.
Chang Qing once took Xu Chunniang and Xiaobai to visit Zongdongtian and passed by Fuyu City.
However, if you enter the city, you need to pay an additional amount of immortal crystals, so Chang Qing only briefly introduced the origin of Fuyu City and took them away.
"I wonder how many fairy crystals I need to pay if I go to Fuyu City?"
"It depends on how long you want to stay in Fuyu City. If you just want to go into the city to do business and leave the city within one day, you only need to pay the Five Immortal Crystals.
The longer you stay in the city, the more cash you will need, or you can spend two hundred fairy crystals to gain access to Fuyu City for one year. "
As he said that, Mr. Gong looked at her with a half-smile, "Why, are you interested in Fuyu City?"
Xu Chunniang said calmly, "Fuyu City is a place where immortals gather. I want to see if there is any chance to earn some immortal crystals. It is too slow to earn immortal crystals just by cutting down cedar trees."
Elder Gong said noncommittally, "Everyone wants to earn immortal crystals, but not everyone has the ability. You have just come to the immortal world, so it would be good to know more about the situation outside.
But that’s not why you came here this time, right? "
"To be honest, Mr. Gong, the reason why I came to you this time is to borrow some more immortal crystals from you to buy two fur coats."
Mr. Gong smiled knowingly, with a determined look on his face.
"I have said it before, in this Zhangwei Mountain, it is difficult to move without fur clothes to keep out the cold, because the immortal energy will always be exhausted, and the stone house not only isolates the frost and cold, but also blocks out most of the immortal energy.
There is no way to restore the immortal energy in the stone house, so fur clothes become a necessity. "
Xu Chunniang sighed softly, "I first came here and underestimated the frost and cold in Zhangwei Mountain. I practiced outside for two hours a few days ago and got frostbite.
Thanks to the frostbite ointment you always gave me, the injury was healed. "
"Haha, there's no need to thank me, you and I are just getting what we need.
I have several different grades of fur clothes here. The one I took out last time is the most common. If you want something better, I have it here too. "
Mr. Gong took out several fur coats in succession and unfolded them one by one, "The fur coats are made of the hair shed by immortal beasts and some specific immortal plants. The higher the grade, the stronger the cold resistance and durability. You see what you want Which kind?"
Xu Chunniang coughed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.
"As you know, Mr. Gong, Xiaobai and I have just ascended to the Immortal Realm not long ago, and we don't have much Immortal Crystal on hand at all, so I just bought two of the most common fur coats."
Mr. Gong chuckled, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.
"When I went up the mountain that day, I saw with my own eyes that a stone quarry chisel appeared out of thin air in your hand. The price of the magical storage device is not cheap. If you really have no choice, why not sell your magical storage device to me? Maybe it will sell for a good price. Price."
Xu Chunniang pretended to be helpless and shook her head, "My storage artifact can't hold many things at all, and it can only be used to transport some green stones. This is why I didn't buy a storage artifact when I bought the quarrying chisel."
After hearing this, Mr. Gong said nothing more.
Since the other party is willing to spend a lot of money to buy a quarrying chisel, it is normal for him to be unwilling to sell the magical storage device in his hand.
"Two pieces of low-grade immortal-level fur clothes cost one hundred immortal crystals."
Elder Gong handed two ordinary fur coats to Xu Chunniang, then took out a stack of tissue paper and pulled out one piece of paper.
Xu Chunniang looked at the thick stack of paper in Mr. Gong's hand and had an idea in her mind. Could these all be IOUs?
Mr. Gong caught a glimpse of her expression and smiled.
"You're right. These are all IOUs. The people living in Zhangwei Mountain are too poor. That means I am willing to lend you money. Otherwise, I don't know how many more people will freeze to death in Zhangwei Mountain a year."
Xu Chunniang believed deeply. Although the immortal crystal borrowed by Mr. Gong was not for free and would be charged a high interest rate, there was no free lunch in the world. It was better to pay a little more for the immortal crystal than to freeze to death.
Gong Lao picked up the pen, drew a few strokes on the thin paper, and handed it to Xu Chunniang, "Take a look at it. I'll put it away if there's no problem."
Xu Chunniang glanced at it and nodded after confirming it was correct.
"I owe you a total of seven hundred immortal crystals. One year later, I will repay you eight hundred and four with interest. That's right."
Mr. Gong put away the IOU with satisfaction and sighed leisurely.
"Being sent to a shabby place like Zhangwei Mountain, and having to work here as a jobber for hundreds of years, I can only rely on these unsavory methods to get some immortal crystals."
As an Earth Immortal, Mr. Gong could originally live in Chang Jingtian.
But all the good jobs have been taken away, and when it was his turn, there were only some jobs that no one wanted to do. At least he still had a chance to earn some immortal crystals when he came to Zhangwei Mountain, but it was equally difficult to go to other places. .
"I wonder how long Mr. Gong plans to go to Fuyu City this time?"
"I usually don't stay in Fuyu City for too long. It can last for four or five days, or it can last for two or three days. Do you want to go with me?"
Xu Chunniang calculated the time. Now she would go back and give the fur clothes to Xiaobai, and then rush over. She didn't know if she could make it in time.
"I do have this intention, but before that, I want to send a fur coat back to Xiaobai."
Mr. Gong understood, "It's too late to go back and forth. If you want to go to Fuyu City, it's not impossible for me to wait for you for a day.
How about this? I'll wait for you at home tomorrow and you can come over earlier. How about that? "
