half year later.
Shopkeeper Ma enters Wanren Mountain again.
This time he not only brought the piece of Xingxing Xuanjin hidden in the meeting, but also bought two pieces of Xuanjin from Wanbao Pavilion and another piece from Xianren Tower.
Sunset Cliff.
"The total of these pieces is only about five kilograms. I'm afraid I need one or two more pieces." Liangchen weighed the four pieces of golden starry gold but also contained purple light, playing with it in his hands with a happy face.
He was very surprised by the star power contained in this starry black gold. If it weren't for its usefulness, he would almost want to absorb it all.
"Junior has already visited several major chambers of commerce, but only received these. As for those small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, they have never heard of the name Xuanjin, let alone the method of identifying this treasure, so I decided to buy Jin Mangshi. They emptied their warehouses with the excuse, but unfortunately no piece of black gold was found. For the current plan, we can only go to various sects to look for this treasure. I think there will be gains, but this requires the sword master's personal order."
"In addition, I have arranged for three times the number of manpower to guard the jade mines in the snow mountains day and night. As long as there is snow jade in the world, I will definitely take it into my pocket..."
Shopkeeper Ma reported carefully. After finishing speaking, he carefully picked up the spiritual tea in front of him and took a sip.
"There is no news about the other items, and even if they are collected together, they cannot be refined, so there is no need to worry about the Starry Black Gold. We don't need to consider the plan of hunting for treasures in various sects for the time being." Liangchen heard this and shook his head slightly.
With his current reputation, no one dared to disobey him even if he asked all the factions to bring out the gold stones for him to choose from, even if he asked all the factions to offer all the treasures in the warehouse. But this approach is a bit overbearing, so unless you have collected all the other materials, there is no need to be so anxious.
"Junior, I obey." Shopkeeper Ma immediately nodded and responded, but he admired Liangchen even more in his heart.
There is no difference between the cultivation world and the business world. In the business world, bullying, deception, and abduction can be seen everywhere. In the cultivation world, murder, treasures, and plunder are commonplace. For the Sword Master to reach this point, he must have his own heart and self-interest as the top priority in everything. How could he care about such inconsequential thoughts of others?
"This is indeed a little different from the surly, domineering and arrogant ancestors of the gods that I have come into contact with in the past, but this is probably the reason why I can sit in front of the Sword Master and drink tea."
Shopkeeper Ma was thinking about it, then seemed to think of something again and spoke again:
"Reporting to the Sword Master, the junior has also sent a message to Kyushu and even Qizawa about the top-quality spiritual essence. There is no news yet."
"However, news came from Demon Dragon City that a large spiritual mine was discovered in the Landu Mountains of the Southern Wilderness. It has been shipping a large amount of goods recently. This spiritual mine is a black iron mine, and it is said that there is also a small amount of mithril produced. This It is easiest to find the best spiritual essence in newly excavated large-scale spiritual mines, but I am afraid it will be difficult to flow into Zhongzhou." Shopkeeper Ma gave another clue.
"Southern Wilderness Continent, Landu Mountain Range?" Liangchen heard the voice and repeated.
"Here." Hearing Liangchen's words, Shopkeeper Ma seemed to have been prepared. He took out a map and unfolded it gently, then pointed to a place marked by a red circle on the map.
"The mountains here were originally the territory of the Jutian Clan. After the defeat, they were all included in the territory of the Mad War Clan. Several large-scale spiritual mines have been discovered in these years, which has also greatly increased the strength of the Mad War Clan.
In recent decades, the border has been safe, so many businessmen here have gone to gold mining, and it is said that they have made a lot of money. "
"Only the middle-grade and low-grade ores produced in the spiritual mines can still be received. As long as the rare ores of higher grades will be collected directly by the people arranged by the Berserker Clan, let alone rare treasures such as the best spiritual essence. "Shopkeeper Ma introduced.
"How likely is it that the best spiritual essence will appear in this kind of spiritual mine?" Liangchen thought for a moment and asked.
"It's huge!" Shopkeeper Ma said.
"Then can you send someone to Nanhuang to find the Chamber of Commerce to buy it?" Liangchen asked again.
"This is more difficult than robbing! Many body-refining techniques of the Southern Wilderness lineage rely on spiritual marrow body-tempering, so as soon as such treasures appear in the world, they will be sent to the leaders of several major forces for distribution, and there is almost no possibility of buying them. ." Shopkeeper Ma shook his head and replied.
"Is there any good strategy?" Liangchen asked.
"The best spiritual marrow usually appears deep in the spiritual mines. If you are lucky, you can mine it in two or three years. If you are not lucky, you won't be able to dig it out in twenty or thirty years. So we can only bribe the miners and then arrange for a team of people to be stationed in the mine. Next to the spiritual mine, once the best spiritual essence appears, we will spend a lot of money to intercept it, and then have someone secretly bring it back to Zhongzhou." Shopkeeper Ma thought for a moment and came up with a method.
"This... takes a long time." Liangchen suddenly felt a little dizzy when he heard this. This plan sounded like it was completely based on luck. If you are not lucky, it is normal to wait for twenty or thirty years.
It's a pity that this top-quality spiritual marrow is also a treasure that high-level monks compete for no matter which continent it is on. Although he has two top-quality spiritual marrows, one is of water attribute and the other is of wood attribute.
Metallic spiritual marrow is really rare. He only learned from Kun Wuya's mouth that Fairy Yiyun once had a metallic spiritual marrow, and finally used it to help Kun Wuya recover his mana in the snowy mountains.
After thinking about it, he seemed to remember something and asked:
"When will the Nanaze Feast be held again?"
"Reporting to the Sword Master, it will take more than forty years for the Qizeze Feast to be held every sixty years." Shopkeeper Ma replied.
"Uh...it's going to take so long." It seemed that he thought that he could get two spiritual essences in the Qizawa Feast, and he couldn't wait to convene another Qizawa Feast right away.
"Is there a grand gathering in Zhongzhou?" Liangchen asked unwillingly.
"Reporting to the Sword Master, there are auctions of various sizes in Kyushu almost every year, but Ludao Club all participates in them. As long as the Sword Master names the treasure, the junior will definitely win it, so there is no need for the Sword Master to worry about it." Shopkeeper Ma But he answered like this, as if he was very confident in the strength of the Ludao Association in the Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce.
But thinking about it, no matter which force it is, as long as they hear the words "Sword Master Auction", no one will dare to fight! ?
"I see." Liangchen suddenly felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He slowly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of the spiritual tea.
"But the Yunmeng Lantern Festival, which takes place once every ten years, is about to begin. The Sword Master can consider going to relax." Shopkeeper Ma seemed to have remembered something and said.
"Yunmeng Lantern Festival?" Liangchen suddenly became energetic after hearing this.
"The Yunmeng Lantern Festival is a conference held once every ten years in Yunmengze. Although it is not as good as the Qizeze Feast, it is possible that the best spiritual essence will appear.
Although our Ludao Guild has strength in Yunmengze, if we encounter monks from other lands taking action, the juniors may not be able to guarantee success. Therefore, if the sword master has time, he should go out to travel and watch the grand event. "Shopkeeper Ma introduced carefully.
"When does it start?" Liangchen asked.
"Next year's Mid-Autumn Festival and Moon Worship Festival." Shopkeeper Ma replied.
"Okay." Liangchen nodded and agreed to the invitation without even thinking about it.
Shopkeeper Ma looked overjoyed upon hearing this. Being able to accompany the Sword Master at the Yunmeng Lantern Festival would definitely raise the reputation of the Ludao Club to a new level.
Thinking of this, he felt hot in his heart, and he looked forward to the Yunmeng Lantern Festival arriving soon.
"Next year when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, I will welcome you to the Demon Dragon City!" He said respectfully with joy on his face.
