The market here is relatively lively, not inferior to that of Bazhou.
But the area concentrated in the southwest corner seemed even more crowded.
Naturally, most of them are just watching the lively crowds, just like going shopping to see novelties, not buying anything.
Or it’s like going to an antique market, everything you see looks fake and you can’t buy it.
But it’s quite fun to walk around.
Zhou Xiaozhou went directly into an elixir shop, which was relatively deserted.
There were crowds of people outside, but it was empty inside, with not many people paying attention at all.
Pills are expensive luxuries, even those who desperately need them can hardly afford them.
Even if the elixir has some effect, it still needs to be taken for a long time. How many people can afford the word long-term?
Well, there are indeed some effects. Walking without eating is the same as jogging after eating. The difference is still obvious.
If you want to be one step ahead of others, you have to spend a lot of money to accumulate. Sitting and meditating and drinking the northwest wind will definitely not be as good as those who take pills.
Zhou Xiaozhou accidentally came up with a mixed food formula, which has already improved the speed of jogging to the same speed as walking. People with no spiritual roots like him are already slow in cultivation. If they don't take pills, they won't be able to build a foundation until they die.
If you don't take the elixir now, you don't know when you will reach the ground level, and your hair may turn gray.
Many people practice until their hair turns gray and are stuck in the late stage of foundation building.
"What does this guest need?"
Business people know how to read people's orders. When the waiter saw that Zhou Xiaozhou had some style, he immediately came over and gave him a friendly and warm smile.
Zhou Xiaozhou glanced at it lightly. It didn't seem to be a small shop. He straightened his back and asked, "Is there any Xuanjie Tiger Power Pill?"
"have."
"How much?"
"Eight gold."
It is indeed cheaper than Qingyuan County.
It’s definitely more expensive than Bazhou.
The same thing usually has different prices in different regions. This is the regional price difference caused by the invisible market.
"Where's Niulidan?"
“Do you want more or less guest officers?
If you want a lot of goods, you can negotiate. If you want a single piece, it will cost you two gold. "
"many."
"How many?"
"how much do you have?"
"As much as you want."
"Spot goods."
"There are always a hundred pieces..."
"That's all?"
Less?
The clerk was stunned for a long time, then he quickly forced out a smile and said, "If you want more goods, our shop can ask the alchemist to refine them right away..."
"No, I just want the goods in stock and I'll leave immediately.
Take what you have here, as well as Huli Dan, and calculate the price. "
Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to stay in a foreign country for too long. If he was unfamiliar with the place, he would never feel at ease.
Just sweep away these two elixirs and go to the next one.
Such arrogance still attracted the attention of other customers in the drug store who were hesitant to buy something.
Only when you embark on this road can you realize how poor you are. It's hard to get some money, but you are lacking everywhere and there is never enough. Your desire for money far exceeds that of ordinary people.
It's like being addicted, trying every possible means to get money, buying this and that, getting deeper and deeper into it.
Taking pills can indeed be addictive.
Because cultivation level can indeed be improved.
Who doesn’t want to catch up and overtake others?
Rather than being stepped on by others because of lack of money.
If given the opportunity, robbery would become a routine method.
This is the danger in the world of cultivating immortals. It is difficult for normal income to cover expenses, so you have to think about taking other people's things as your own, which is called opportunity.
Zhou Xiaozhou had a lot of money, so he went from store to store and only bought two kinds of elixirs.
These two kinds of elixirs are not too popular. Every store has some of them, but they are not too plentiful, so you need to visit many stores.
After scanning a street, there were probably thirty or fifty elixir shops. In fact, they didn't even spend ten thousand gold, but they attracted a lot of attention.
This guy looks very rich!
Even if you get these elixirs back, they will still be worth a lot of money.
Not one group of people attracted attention, but many groups.
Some gangs were originally watching here to see if there were any suitable fat sheep that could be slaughtered, while others were motivated by the news.
Ten thousand gold is a huge amount for the foundation building period.
Robbery is something that anyone can do if they want to.
When Zhou Xiaozhou came out of the last elixir shop on this street, he found many people sneaking outside and were a little speechless.
Is it possible to rob someone in the city?
It's still broad daylight.
I originally wanted to leave, but looking at the situation, I definitely couldn't leave, so I had to turn to another street and continue shopping.
Now I am forced to buy it, it doesn’t matter if it is more or less.
I bought another street and it was getting dark.
When we came out again, the street was full of people.
These people were divided into many groups, in groups of three or five, in groups of ten or more, and some were alone...
There were at least one or two hundred people.
Maybe people in the Golden Core stage were not alarmed yet, or they didn't bother to compete with the younger generation for food, so they didn't show up, and they were all in the Foundation Establishment stage.
They belong to different factions, or they are just friends.
Zhou Xiaozhou really didn't want to get into trouble. He just wanted to buy something and leave, so he could go home and improve his cultivation. But with so many people watching, there wasn't much chance of him escaping.
I can only take advantage of the darkness and wait for the opportunity to slip away.
"I am a disciple of Xichang Protecting the Country Sect..."
"When people from Xichang come to this country, it's normal for them to leave some money for traveling, right?"
"This is not called toll money, it's called protection money. We're not gangsters, so what can we charge to pay for traveling money!
It should be that we need to protect the safety of our friends in Xichang from being robbed by gangsters, so it is natural for us to charge a little protection fee. "
"The protection fee is indeed relatively reasonable. We are all persons of status. Our friends in Xichang hired us as guards, so it is natural for us to pay them."
"I don't want to wait any longer, just give each person a hundred gold..."
"Fart! Everyone has at least a thousand gold coins, who cares about a hundred gold coins?"
There are more than a hundred people, and each of them has a fortune, which is not a small sum.
Aren’t you afraid that others won’t be able to take it out?
One hundred gold is more reasonable, and it is also a reasonable price for hiring a foundation-building monk guard.
These people talked non-stop, and it felt like they were dividing the spoils on the spot.
The robbery was also very orderly. As long as everyone was present, everyone had a share, so internal strife was avoided.
If you want them to start fighting among themselves, there is no chance to escape in the chaos.
Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to say anything more and was thinking of ways to escape.
The elixir bottle clerk behind him stood at the door and said, "I estimate that this person has at least tens of thousands of gold on him."
After scanning two streets of goods, the elixir itself was worth nearly 20,000 gold. What happened to tens of thousands of gold?
It's wrong for this talkative guy to talk like this. Instead of helping the customer escape, he is helping the gangsters to do their harm.
He may have felt that he was also a native of Yamai, so he naturally wanted to stand on his own side, but his words angered Zhou Xiaozhou. He turned around and rushed into the elixir shop. He stretched out his arms on the counter and hugged a large number of people. The elixir bottle was thrown into the Qiankun bag.
"catch him!"
When the people on the street saw something strange about him, they rushed to the elixir shop.
"catch him····"
