Chu Cheng stopped and recalled that his sister also liked eating candied haws in the previous life, so he walked up to the vendor and asked, "How do you sell this?"
The vendor responded with a smile, "One low-grade spiritual stone and two strands."
When Chu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but be startled. There were candied haws of a few pennies a bunch asking for a low-grade spiritual stone everywhere. Isn't this similar to robbery? You must know that a low-grade spiritual stone cannot be exchanged for even a thousand gold coins.
Seeing that Chu Cheng didn't reply for a long time, the hawker smiled and said: "Sir, this candied haws on a stick is not the kind sold outside. The candied haws in Fenghua City are all made from Bing Xin Guo. Although Bing Xin Guo is not a spiritual fruit, we have Ordinary people can also keep fit by eating food.”
"Bingxin fruit?" Chu Cheng suddenly understood that this fruit was familiar to him. It was the main medicine for refining body-building pills.
But this is the first time I have seen Chu Cheng making candied haws.
"Boss, give me two skewers first!" Chu Cheng took out a spiritual stone and prepared to try the skewers first to see if the taste is different.
Chu Cheng took the candied haws, tore open the wrapping paper, and took a bite. The sweet juice immediately entered his mouth. The fruit was sweet and sour, so delicious!
"Very good!" Chu Cheng praised. As soon as the fruit entered his stomach, he felt that his whole body was in good spirits.
Although the effect of the candied haws made from the ice heart fruit is not comparable to that of the body-building elixir, if ordinary people eat it too much, their bodies will not be as strong as before, and the journey to martial arts will be easier.
Chu Cheng can be sure that although there are not as many monks in Fenghua City as imagined, there must be many martial arts masters, such as this vendor, who is a body tempering warrior!
If this were placed in the world, he would be considered a master.
Chu Cheng smiled and said: "Give me thirty more skewers!"
The hawker was overjoyed. He didn't expect the seller to be so generous. He hurriedly wrapped it up and gave away an extra bunch.
Chu Cheng handed over the spirit stone and put the candied haws back into the storage bag.
The reason he bought so many candied haws on a stick is because he has now reached the Great Perfection of Gathering Qi and can become an inner disciple. Inner disciples can go back once every three years.
"Ling'er should have grown into a big girl now." Chu Cheng smiled. He bought these candied haws for his family. After all, it is made of ice heart fruit, and it can also strengthen your body.
Chu Cheng asked by the way where the spiritual grass stores and spiritual beast stores were. After asking, he discovered that there were no less than fifty spiritual grass stores in Fenghua City! There are fewer spirit animal shops, less than ten.
The nearest Lingcao store was only two hundred meters away, and Chu Cheng quickly arrived in front of the store.
When Chu Cheng walked in, a burst of medicinal fragrance hit his face, which immediately made people feel physically and mentally.
The steward inside saw Chu Cheng coming in and felt that his aura was not weak. He was a late-stage Qi Gathering monk and he greeted him with a smile. "Fellow Taoist! I don't know what to buy. Our store has all kinds of medicinal herbs, even third- and fourth-level spiritual herbs! I'll get them for you!"
The butler was not exaggerating. There would always be a few fourth-level spiritual grasses in a store. However, he didn't think that a Qi Gathering cultivator could afford the fourth-level spiritual grass, which required high-grade crystal stones. Even foundation-building monks may not be able to afford it.
Chu Cheng asked: "I wonder if your store has Perseverance Grass?"
The steward was overjoyed. Although the Perseverance Grass was only a second-level spiritual grass used by monks at the sixth level of Qi Gathering to break through the seventh level, its value was no less than that of ordinary third-level spiritual grass.
"Haha, of course there is a Hengxin Herbal Shop, but due to the shortage of supplies throughout Fenghua City, the price has gone up a bit. One plant costs seventy mid-grade spiritual stones."
Chu Cheng was delighted. The more expensive it was, the better for him. He could have five on hand.
"A sixty-five middle-grade spiritual stone." Chu Cheng thought for a while and said that the spiritual grass purchased by the spiritual grass shop must be cheaper than the one sold.
"Yes! Fellow Taoist, please feel free!" The steward was overjoyed, with a cunning look in his eyes. He deliberately raised the price of seventy for one plant, and the market price was only fifty mid-grade spiritual stones.
"Happy cooperation!" Chu Cheng smiled all over his face. "Here, here are five Perseverance Grasses. Just give me three high-grade spiritual stones and ten medium-grade spiritual stones!"
"..." The steward was confused.
"This fellow Taoist? What's wrong?" Chu Cheng couldn't help but wonder why the steward's face was so dark.
"This...this...to tell you the truth, I'm just a busboy in this store and I can't make the decision." The steward hurriedly changed his words.
Chu Cheng was stunned and almost wanted to say, are you fucking kidding me?
"Then who can make the decision in your store?" Chu Cheng frowned.
"Well, the steward is not here, it will take some time." The steward wanted to find an excuse to push Chu Cheng away. Even if he came back tomorrow, it could be said that the price had been reduced.
"Then say goodbye!" Chu Cheng stopped talking nonsense to this man. He had guessed what was going on, took back the Perseverance Grass and walked out the door.
"Dear blind daters! Fellow Taoists! Come quickly and take a look, take a look!" Chu Cheng shouted, and everyone nearby looked over.
"This is a black-hearted shop! A plant of Perseverance Grass costs seventy mid-grade spiritual stones! Unscrupulous! A profiteer! Bullying me, a foreign monk!" Although Chu Cheng didn't know the specific price of Perseverance Grass, he remembered what Ma Yun had said. There are about fifty middle-grade spiritual stones, so the price will not be much different.
"Perseverance grass? Tsk tsk, two plants in this store are worth three in other stores." A late-stage Qi Gathering monk sarcastically said.
The steward was also anxious when he saw Chu Cheng getting into trouble. For a store like theirs, the most important thing is credibility.
He hurriedly pulled Chu Cheng back and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist, I just summoned the manager and he said he can buy it."
"Oh, okay." Chu Cheng accepted it as soon as he felt good, and took out the five Perseverance Grasses again. "Replace it with a high-grade spiritual stone."
After Chu Cheng got the spirit stone, he smiled and said to the people outside: "I'm sorry, everyone, this store is a big conscience store! I bought a Perseverance Grass for 65 yuan of medium-grade spirit stones. I just misunderstood it. !”
When some monks heard this, they were delighted, and monks with Perseverance Grass on their bodies rushed into the shop. Acquisition of seventy middle-grade spiritual stones! But it’s twenty more than the purchase price!
The butler's expression changed, and as he watched Chu Cheng go away, he already had murderous intent in his heart.
But there is no other way. Since he said in front of so many people that he could purchase seventy middle-grade spiritual stones, he could only suffer the loss of being dumb.
After the vendors left, the housekeeper shouted softly: "Come here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared behind the housekeeper.
The cultivation level exuded by this person is impressively the Great Perfection of Qi Gathering!
"Follow this man, wait until he leaves the city, and bring some men to kill him." The housekeeper was so murderous that this boy actually caused him a lot of losses.
"Yes." The Qi Gathering Dzogchen monk responded, then flashed and disappeared in front of the housekeeper.
Chu Cheng would naturally not know that a crisis was waiting for him at this time.
He came to the largest spirit beast shop in Fenghua City, where there were many rare and exotic beasts. There are colorful parrots, three-tailed apes, two-headed pythons...
Chu Cheng looked at those strange beasts and marveled at how any of them would have made headlines in his previous life.
However, Chu Cheng knew that what was placed outside was just a strange species and could not be regarded as a spiritual beast. How could a real spiritual beast be left casually on the periphery?
"This fellow Taoist, I don't know what you are interested in? This two-headed python is the descendant of the two-pole demon beast and the ordinary python. Its strength is also in the early stage of Qi gathering. If you buy it, it will be a good helper." The young monk came over.
"Strength in the early stage of Qi gathering?" Chu Cheng shook his head. The early stage of Qi gathering was helpful to him three years ago, but now he doesn't like it anymore. When he is in the middle stage of Qi gathering, he can beat a group of early stage ones. Not to mention that now that Qi Gathering is complete, this kind of strange beast can't help at all.
The middle-aged monk also said it casually. With his eyesight, he could still see that the strength of this young monk was about the same as his own.
"Then I wonder what You Ke is attracted to by this thunder and lightning ferret?" The middle-aged monk pointed to a cage frame in front with a smile.
Chu Cheng looked there and saw only a black mink in the cage, with thunder flashing on its body, so majestic! Wouldn't it be cool if you took this thunder mink for a stroll?
The middle-aged monk saw Chu Cheng's move and continued: "Although this thunder marten is not a spiritual beast, it is also loved by many monks. It also has the strength of the middle stage of Qi gathering."
Chu Cheng was indeed a little moved, mainly because the thunder marten was so cool and had the strength to gather energy in the middle stage, so it could also be of some help.
"How many spirit stones do you need?" Chu Cheng thought it was better to ask the price first.
"That's great! It's your first time visiting our store, and I'll give you a 10% discount. It originally cost 200 medium-grade spiritual stones, but now it only costs 180." The middle-aged man chuckled, and it was indeed a discount. Discount.
"One hundred and eighty mid-grade spirit stones?" Chu Cheng was stunned for a moment. Although the spirit stones he had could be used to buy three thunder martens, the one hundred and eighty mid-grade spirit stones were spent on a strange creature that was watching and playing hard. The beast is too luxurious.
An outer disciple of the Luo Yun Sect only earns six low-grade spiritual stones a month, and it takes nearly two years to save one medium-grade spiritual stone. Even an inner disciple can’t afford much, right? Only core disciples can be so arrogant.
Chu Cheng still gave up this idea. Now that his magic weapon and flying magic weapon have been damaged, he needs to spend a lot of spiritual stones. Besides, he was ready to acquire the spiritual weapon.
A good spiritual weapon can at least increase your strength by several percent!
"Well, I'm not here to buy spiritual beasts." Chu Cheng said sheepishly.
"It's okay. Fellow Taoist, you can take a closer look. If you want to buy something in the future, you can come back." The middle-aged monk still said with a smile.
This is how to do business, Chu Cheng said in his heart, this middle-aged monk gave him some favor.
Chu Cheng said: "I wonder if your store has a three-eyed spirit fox?"
The middle-aged monk was stunned. The three-eyed spirit fox was a spiritual beast. Why did he ask if he didn't want to buy it?
"Could it be?" The middle-aged monk thought of something, and then he said happily: "Could it be that fellow Taoist has a three-eyed fox in his hand?"
Chu Cheng smiled and said directly without hiding it: "That's right! I happen to have a three-eyed fox in my hand."
The middle-aged monk said happily: "To be honest with you fellow Taoist, this three-eyed spirit fox has not appeared in Qingzhou for decades. Someone happened to be in urgent need of purchasing it, and three hundred high-grade spirit stones came out."
"Three hundred high-grade spiritual stones?" Chu Cheng secretly took a breath. The price was fifty times higher than he estimated.
"However, there will be an auction held by our Chamber of Commerce in Fenghua City in three days. If you are not in a hurry, you can entrust it to our store. The three-eyed spirit fox has a base price of 60 high-grade spiritual stones. As for the auction price at that time, it will need to be divided into two chambers of commerce. The ingredients are red. I just don’t know if you dare to take a gamble." The middle-aged monk said again.
"Auction?" This was the first time Chu Cheng heard about it.
