Castle Peak.
After the spirit ship docked, all major families happily sent people to pick up the goods, but the joy on the faces of the responsible persons disappeared after they sat in the main hall.
Everyone sitting in the main hall looked solemn, but Lin Changan looked around everyone and said solemnly: "This time, the information about the purchase was leaked, and even a traitor appeared among my own people. I think there is something that I don't need to say more. !”
Among the crowd, Chen Yi, the head of the Chen family, slammed the table angrily and cursed: "Damn it, this is a rip-off, I have to kill him if I catch him."
"That's right, that unscrupulous thing dares to ruin our financial path."
"Unforgivable! Must be investigated strictly!"
Each person in charge spoke with anger on their faces, and they seemed to be filled with righteous indignation, but only they themselves knew what was going on in their hearts.
Lin Changan looked at everyone, smiled indifferently, and said with cupped hands: "Everyone, I am just discussing the matter. You are out of stock, so I will naturally replenish it. As for who leaked the news, it must be one of my own. This is wrong. It won’t work.”
"Of course, I am not looking for fellow Taoists to find out who this person is, but to talk about the issue of this batch of goods!"
When Lin Changan said this, he paused, and after scanning the crowd calmly with his dark eyes, he grinned and gave everyone a bad premonition.
"This batch of spiritual stones needs an extra layer!"
"What!"
As Lin Changan's voice fell, everyone's eyes widened in shock. It's okay to say anything, just point at their noses and curse, but how can you just add money in such a good way!
"Fellow Daoist Lin!"
Even Chen Yi, who had always been friends with him, looked embarrassed. He stood up and raised his hands to say something, but Lin Changan smiled and waved for everyone to sit down.
"In this encounter with the Tribulation Cultivator, the talismans and spirit stones consumed were a huge amount. We all bought this bow spirit ship together at the beginning. Now that I have consumed so many spirit stones, not all of them can be counted as mine. On the head."
"Then fellow Daoist Lin, you can't add another layer!"
Some people had dissatisfied expressions on their faces, and the others also started shouting.
"That's right, how many spiritual stones have been consumed can be shared equally among everyone. Besides, we don't want to suffer a calamity. Moreover, fellow Daoist Lin, the spiritual stones earned by you have not been shared with everyone. How can we let everyone share it equally?"
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Lin has gone too far."
Seeing everyone dissatisfied and complaining, Lin Changan kept looking at everyone with a smile. It wasn't until everyone finished complaining and realized something was wrong, that they all closed their mouths.
"Finished?"
After seeing everyone finish complaining for a while, Lin Changan looked at everyone with a smile, as if nothing happened.
"Did I say that this loss will be all on you?"
When he said this, Lin Changan's expression suddenly changed, and his smile turned into a cold one and he shouted: "This time I wasted a third-level talisman drawn by the Jindan monk himself. Do you want to take responsibility for it?"
The sharp shouts echoed in the main hall, which made Li Han who was on guard at the door feel secretly numb. At the same time, looking at Lin Changan who was intimidating everyone in the main hall, his eyes were filled with envy.
Everyone was also frightened by Lin Changan's sudden look, but after they realized it, everyone wanted to get angry, but thinking about this way of making money, they all had no choice but to hold it in.
At this time, after Lin Changan drank, he took a deep breath and looked at everyone calmly, and said calmly: "The normal consumption of spirit stones and maintenance of the spirit ship has been agreed to be shared equally by everyone from the beginning. As for the price increase this time! "
When he said this, Lin Changan sneered directly, looked at everyone and said sarcastically: "You have only been working for a few years and you don't know the market outside?"
"Right now, the entire Miaowa Kingdom is about to be reduced to porridge, and both good and evil are at odds with each other outside. What's the market situation outside? Don't talk about it anymore, I dare say it might even rise next time!"
"This price increase is not only a tense atmosphere in the entire cultivating world, causing prices to rise, but also a crisis encountered this time!"
At this time, Lin Changan looked at the crowd and spread his hands directly: "A dozen foundation-building monks and hundreds of late-stage Qi-training monks robbed and killed, and I still have to pick up the goods alone? Don't I need to recruit people?"
"At least three to five more foundation-building monks must be recruited, and I also have a third-level spiritual contract that I bought at a high price. Even if there is a golden elixir monk behind it, I can't even think of cracking this spiritual contract so easily."
After Lin Changan explained what he said, everyone was shocked from the beginning to speechless at the end, Damn! Did you tell me earlier, but it’s so damn expensive.
To raise goods by one level, it only takes resources to recruit three or five foundation-building monks. However, when you open your mouth, you raise the level by one level. You are simply a profiteer.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, there is no need to raise such a high price, right?"
Among the crowd, Chen Yi forced himself to ask with an awkward smile, which also revealed what everyone was thinking, while Lin Changan smiled and shook his head.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, I think you have misunderstood. Raising this price is not only about recruiting helpers, but also because the price of Tianyuan City's goods has fundamentally increased."
Has the supply price increased?
At this moment, everyone looked at each other in shock, but probably no one really believed what Lin Changan said. The price increase may be true, but how could it suddenly increase so much? It is simply outrageous.
But then everyone became angry. They gnashed their teeth and hated that idiot who had colluded with Jie Xiu. You said it was not good to rob someone's goods, but they insisted on robbing Lin Changan's. As a result, the price has increased.
Lin Changan's hatred has been transferred this time, because everyone knows that this is definitely betrayed by his own people, and it really costs a lot to recruit three or five foundation-building monks.
"Of course, if you want to save the spiritual stones for recruiting monks, it's easy. As long as each family has one or two foundation-building monks, I will be safe and secure."
Lin Changan said with a smile, but everyone's lips twitched after hearing this. It sounds nice to be a guest and worship, but to put it bluntly, it means selling one's body. Their own family thinks there are not enough foundation-building monks, how can they be willing to let their own family's monks go? Do this.
Offerings and guest services are all for casual cultivators who do not have sects or families. Of course, there is also one kind of service, which is just for the sake of friendship, which is fine.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I'm afraid it's not easy to recruit these three or five foundation-building monks."
Chen Yi asked with a puzzled look on his face, and changed the topic perfectly. How could it be possible for them to send out a foundation-building monk?
Chen Yi, in particular, secretly muttered in his heart that he, the Chen family, had finally managed to produce two foundation-building monks, so why would he be willing to send them to other families to serve? If they were used as cannon fodder, he would have no place to cry.
"It would have been difficult to recruit in the past. After all, once you become a guest or a worshiper, you have almost lost your freedom. Sometimes you even have to do it even though you know it is a trap, but now!"
When Lin Changan said this, a smile appeared on his face, "It's so chaotic outside now, and there are so many foundation-building monks on the front line. It's easy to pick a few casual cultivators. After all, although it is dangerous to make offerings here, it's nothing compared to Going to the battlefield, right?"
This sentence made everyone's lips twitch. Good guy, why didn't they think of this? But this is suitable for Lin Changan right now. For them, their own family's resources are not enough, how can they allocate them to others.
Unless they are skilled monks, this is worthy of their investment.
Lin Changan's move was purely to use his personal connections to find a few foundation-building monks from the front line to retreat to the second line.
After all, in a turbulent place like the front line, even if the foundation-building monks are worried that they will not be able to see the sun tomorrow when they open their eyes, on the other hand, retreating to the second line, although there are dangers and even loss of freedom, is still much better than the front line, and freedom ?
They have no freedom on the front lines of the battlefield. Sometimes they have to be bait and cannon fodder, and they can't refuse.
"By the way, fellow Taoists, the entire world of immortal cultivation is in turmoil now, especially Tianyuan City, which lacks healing herbs and elixirs, but we are rich in this type of elixirs..."
As Lin Chang An Baba spoke, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Friend Dao Lin, it is true that our Miaowa country is rich in this type of spiritual herbs and elixirs, but now that the front lines are all in such a state, let's not mention that we are not enough. It’s not enough, and the higher-ups are also strict in restricting the cards.”
After hearing this answer, Lin Changan narrowed his eyes, "I haven't said the price yet!"
Suddenly, everyone got excited after hearing these words, what does it mean to be lacking! As long as the spiritual stone is suitable, there is nothing they dare not sell.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, what percent of the price do people outside offer?"
"That's right, we are also in short supply of this type of elixirs and spiritual herbs. If we have more, we will definitely not have enough."
Looking at the profit-seeking people, Lin Changan smiled and nodded. They were bound by interests and everyone earned spiritual stones together. These same people were also filled with righteous indignation and were ready to work hard to find this traitor in private.
When the time comes, the traitor can be kicked out, and isn't this share theirs?
The prosperity of the world is all for the benefit of coming, and the earth and soil of the world are all for the benefit of the future.
…
Afterwards, Lin Changan made the handover with everyone and went to the Chengfang City Division.
"Brother Lin, I heard that you met Jie Xiu this time?"
As soon as Monk Liao Kong met him, he started to curse with anger on his face.
"What a fucking idiot. If any idiot dares to cut off my wealth, I will tear off that idiot's head!"
Monk Liao Kong didn't lie at all, and his face was full of anger. If he just regarded Lin Changan as a chess piece at the beginning, then now he is the God of Wealth. The spiritual stones he has earned in the past few years are more than what he has spent all his time doing this and that. There's a lot coming.
And he doesn't need to take any risks outside. He only needs to sit in Qingshan City, eat, drink and practice every day. A lot of spiritual stones will be sent to him every year.
Seeing that Monk Kong cared so much about him, even though he was concerned about the spirit stone, Lin Changan nodded with rare gratitude and said: "Brother Kong, don't mention it, I almost fell into trouble this time."
"I don't know who is cheating. If I hadn't had a third-level talisman at the bottom of the box, I would have really been in trouble this time."
"There are so many goods, and this time I have packed most of the spirit stones. If I really want to make a difference, it's not just me. Even if I have spirit stones, Tianyuan City won't be able to get so many for a while. goods."
As Lin Changan Baba spoke, Monk Lokong also understood. Lin Changan was telling him that if something happened to his batch of goods, he didn't just need to make another batch. The goods in Tianyuan City were not that good. Fast.
When he thought of this, Monk Kong couldn't help but cursed, "The seven sects of the righteous way and the six sects of the evil way are also mentally ill. We have only been fighting here for a few years, but as a result, the atmosphere in other places has begun to become tense."
Monk Liao Kong is naturally aware of the current situation in the world of immortality. It is precisely because of this that prices have continued to rise, and there have even been restrictions on the export of some goods.
You must know that once the war in the entire world of immortality begins, these are strategic materials, and everyone will save them as treasures.
"I went to Fellow Daoist Bai before I came here, hoping to recruit a few three or five foundation-building monks from the front line with innocent backgrounds to worship them. After all, it was fine this time, but it might not be the next time. We must prepare in advance. "
After hearing Lin Changan's words, Monk Lingkong suddenly showed a look of pain, "Brother Lin, how many spiritual stones do you need?"
It's not that Monk Kong Kong feels sorry for him for wasting spiritual stones, but that Lin Changan's cost of purchasing goods has increased, and he will definitely not suffer a loss. The unlucky ones will be the dealers below, and he wants to divide the spiritual stones. .
Seeing Kong's expression of pain, Lin Changan smiled and waved his hands: "Brother Kong Kong, look at you, don't worry, what you won't do is that the major families will raise their prices appropriately."
"That's good." After hearing that he was not affected, Monk Liao Kong burst out laughing. Seeing this scene, Lin Changan felt even more contemptuous.
"Moreover, recruitment and worship are much more relaxed than in the past. I don't know how many people on the front line were recruited by force. Now I don't know how many monks on the front line are trying to retreat to the second line. After all, the front line is a meat grinder."
"Therefore, the high-cost recruitment and offerings are now enough without even needing the usual three levels."
After hearing this, Monk Liokong couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Lin, you are still too soft-hearted. If you want me to tell them not to give us spiritual stones, then it will be enough. Then we can still support them. If you don't accept it, let them go back." Go to the battlefield."
Good guy, this Monk Kong is even darker than him. Lin Changan only glanced at him from the corner of his eye. He was too dark, or else Kong was not suitable for business.
There must be a bottom line for black people, otherwise there will be no hope, and there will be nothing to do but work and effort.
"It's okay. We need to find a few good ones this time. After all, the front line is under tight pressure and everything is being consumed right now. I'm afraid it won't take a few months to get a shipment."
Although the war has increased the prices of various strategic materials, it has also increased consumption. Although they have less profits, they are consuming it quickly. Normally, they only need to restock once every six months, but now they have to restock once in March or May. , and the quantity is extremely large.
"well!"
Monk Liao Kong laughed and stroked the short beard on his chin. He didn't care what the fight looked like outside. What he wanted now was the spirit stone, and!
Not knowing what he thought of, Monk Liao Kong couldn't help but look at Lin Chang'an with concern, and sighed: "Brother Lin, you can't earn all these spiritual stones, strength is everything."
After hearing this, Lin Changan felt a thump in his heart, pretended to be nonchalant, shook his head and said: "Brother Lokong, if others don't know it, don't you know it? Most of the spiritual stones I earned have been invested in cultivation. On."
Kong was really clear about this, but now he looked at Lin Changan's strength in the middle stage of foundation building, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, there is spiritual liquid inside the door that can promote your cultivation of skills, and that's the price!"
At this time, Lin Changan sneered in his heart. It was really dark. He was clearly being raised like a pig. He was eager to let him practice to the late stage of foundation building so that he could be harvested. But now he still looks concerned and still... Do you want him to produce the spiritual stone by himself?
This old bald donkey is even more sinister than Elder Lu back then. People knew how to invest in him, but now he comes here to support himself and this group of people.
"Spiritual stone!"
At this time, Lin Changan had a look of embarrassment on his face, "My spiritual stones either need to be purchased or cultivated. They are too expensive and I may not be able to afford them."
Seeing Lin Changan not wanting to pull out the hair, Monk Liaokong's eyes twitched, he took a deep breath and laughed, "Brother Lin, it depends on what you said."
"Although this spiritual fluid that promotes the growth of spiritual plants is precious, the war is currently going on. A little bit won't affect anything, and your spiritual body!"
Having said this, Monk Kong was helpless. Everyone outside was a profiteer. The thousand-year-old spiritual herbs were all more than 900 years old. With this gap, not to mention the alchemists, even the experienced Ling Zhifu often There are misses.
Mainly because of the difference of several decades, alchemy and so on will not have much impact. This also makes it normal for spiritual plants in the 950s and 60s to pretend to be thousands of years old in the world of immortality.
"Thank you, Brother Kong."
When Lin Changan heard that the other party could get him a bottle of spiritual liquid, he was so excited that he handed over his hands repeatedly. He secretly muttered in his heart that he wanted to fatten me up, and it was also undecided who would be the prey in the end.
"By the way! Brother Kong, there is one more thing this time."
I saw a smile on Lin Changan's face, and when Liao Kong saw this familiar smile, he knew something was wrong, and a greedy look suddenly appeared in his eyes. (End of chapter)
