two months later
As the largest city in the Chaotic Star Sea, and perhaps the largest city in the human world, Tianxing City is naturally extremely majestic.
When Jiang Yun saw the layout of Tianxing City for the first time, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he went to Chongqing in his previous life.
At the same time, I remembered the ultimate experience of using the positioning function but unable to find the road.
Tianxing City is based on a huge mountain that towers into the clouds. Circles of buildings and houses have been built around the mountain, with the top of the mountain spreading to the foot of the mountain.
There are an astonishing number of giant ships in the large ports on the edge of the island. Even the smallest ships are one hundred feet long and twenty feet high. There are even a few behemoths that are thousands of feet long.
The burly and dark-skinned crew members were busy loading and unloading the goods. The goods were being pulled away by carts. However, the carts were not pulled by oxen and horses, but by huge but gentle monsters. A scene of prosperity.
Entering Tianxing City and walking on the streets of Tianxing City on the first floor at the bottom, you will find that each building is a multi-story building covering an area of one acre or even several acres or more.
In the southern district of Fang City, the business scope of shops mostly focuses on demon pills, spiritual herbs, and elixirs.
Butian Street. The core street in Fangshi South District is named after the most famous legendary elixir in Luan Xinghai, Tianbu Dan.
This street is home to countless famous shops, 14 of which have a history of more than a thousand years.
Qing'an Building, this seven-story building is the headquarters of the Qing'an Business Alliance, one of the four major business alliances. The elixirs sold internally are all-encompassing, claiming to have all the elixirs except the legendary Tianbu Dan.
The elixirs taken by low-level monks are just that, but most of the elixir-forming monks go out to find spiritual herbs, make up one or two batches of elixirs, and then hire someone to refine the elixirs, because no one will sell the finished products directly.
Although Qing'an Building does sell elixirs that are above the elixir formation stage, the prices make people eye-roll. Many treasures require various treasure exchanges.
Take the dust-falling pill that can reduce the bottleneck of pill formation as an example. This building also has a lot of them in stock, but it doesn't sell spiritual stones.
According to what Qing'an Lou said, if you meet a young talented person who is destined to have a chance, you will be given one for free without taking any money. If you are not destined to have a chance, he will not sell it even if he has tens of thousands of spiritual stones.
Some people sneered when they learned about this, secretly thinking that they were cunning.
There are still some people who don't understand its purpose, and later they find out that it is a kind of investment. The so-called destined people are monks with high talents. These people have a higher probability of forming elixirs than ordinary people, and they only give them away but don't sell them just to make the other party owe them a debt. Cause and effect.
After these talented people get the Dust Falling Pill, even if only one tenth of them form it, it will be a huge benefit to the Qing'an Merchant Alliance.
If you need help from someone in the future, can these alchemy monks not take action to return the favor?
However, something seemed to have happened within the Qing'an Business Alliance today. Dozens of shopkeepers from the entire building gathered in a room on the seventh floor.
There were two pills placed in front of everyone. Some people had frowns on their faces, while others had expressionless faces.
Sitting in the main seat is a petite young female cultivator wearing a green skirt. She is an early-stage alchemy cultivator.
Shopkeeper Che, you are responsible for selling the demon cultivating pills, you go ahead. "
A middle-aged male cultivator with a goatee forced out a smile and said: "Young Master, the effects of these two spirit-feeding pills are far superior to the several demon-cultivating pills in our Qing'an Building, and they have never been used in the Qing'an Building before. The Sea of Chaotic Stars has appeared before, and a little suspicion is an ancient method."
"After research by several alchemy masters in our business alliance, the effects of these two spirit feeding pills are not much different. They can both effectively speed up the growth of spirit beasts. However, the red spirit feeding pills will overdraw the potential of the spirit beasts, and the white spirit feeding pills will overdraw the potential of the spirit beasts. The spirit pill is basically harmless."
"These two kinds of spirit-feeding pills are just white. They are very expensive and not many people buy them. They won't threaten us for the time being."
However, the effect of the red one is more than half stronger than our Demon Training Pill, but the price is the same as our Demon Training Pill. "
In the month since the Zhenling Pavilion opened for business, we have only sold ten demon cultivating pills. Afterwards, several people even asked us to return them! "
"Customers are not stupid, really."
The female cultivator in green skirt frowned and said unceremoniously: "Are we going to watch Zhenling Pavilion completely take away this part of the business?
If you don't have a countermeasure, you can get out. How about I arrange a new job for you to manage a low-level resource sea farm? The kind that's close to the open sea. "
Shopkeeper Che rolled his eyes and said: "Young Master, why don't we find some people to spread rumors and exaggerate the side effects of taking Spirit Feeding Pills. For example, a spirit beast with level five potential can only reach level three after taking it.
Or if you take another one, your lifespan will be greatly reduced. A spiritual beast that can live for a thousand years will die after eating two hundred years too much! "
Another shopkeeper shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it has no effect. After all, it is easy to judge the effect of pills after taking them. Whether the longevity has passed and the potential consumption can be known by careful observation."
"Then spend a lot of money to win over the other party's alchemy master to try to get the elixir! I don't believe that if you throw thousands of spiritual stones at it, no one will be tempted!" Shopkeeper Che said fiercely
"It's useless, the person who refined this elixir is the boss of Zhenling Pavilion!"
"Then do him!"
"I have met the boss of Zhenling Pavilion. He is in the late stage of pill formation."
The shopkeeper's face turned pale and his body was trembling slightly.
As an old man who has worked in the Merchant Alliance for nearly a hundred years, he knows his family's situation.
The Qing'an Merchant Alliance itself has a Nascent Soul Ancestor, but the life and death has been closed for a long time when Shouyuan is approaching. In addition, there are two Yuanying ancestors who worship him.
But those two old monsters were just coveting the offerings from the Merchant Alliance. If they wanted to take action against the Merchant Alliance, the Merchant Alliance would have to break their muscles and bones, and the cost would far exceed the benefits of the mere Demon Training Pill.
Facing the late-stage pill-forming monks, although there are many pill-forming monks in the Merchant Alliance, who is willing to make an enemy of this kind of enemy?
Zhenling Pavilion.
The four-story store opened a month ago and is located at the end of Butian Street.
The surrounding shops were originally just for watching the excitement. After all, no new shops have opened in Butian Street for a long time.
The surprising result is that Zhenling Pavilion has established a firm foothold in a short period of time and has a regular customer base.
Originally this store was called Sishengtang, and it was an old store that had been open for more than 400 years and the business was pretty good.
As a result, plantations of several auxiliary materials needed for his signature elixirs suffered a man-made devastating blow, resulting in a sharp decrease in the number of elixirs produced, and the business plummeted.
After more than thirty years of operation, the boss came up with the idea of subletting it out.
After all, whether it is a cave or a shop, the rent in Tianxing City is paid in one lump sum for hundreds of years, and it is non-refundable. However, the boss of Sishengtang had just renewed the rent for several medicine gardens when something happened. It was really a bad year.
More than a month ago, a mysterious monk who formed alchemy approached the owner of Sishengtang and expressed his willingness to rent it, and the store's clerks were willing to take over as long as they were of good character.
The business was quickly concluded.
The fourth floor of Zhenling Pavilion.
Jiang Yun and Lan Junyan were sitting by the window drinking tea and chatting when a powerful soundproofing array enveloped the entire room.
"Senior Brother Lan, I have other things to do later, and this Zhenling Pavilion will only have to work hard for you." Jiang Yun said softly, with a slight apology on his face.
Lan Junyan smiled and waved his hand and said: "Junior brother, there is no need to worry. Our two alchemy masters have been working hard to refine alchemy during this period, plus the inventory brought from inside the door is enough for the store to sell for several years."
"When junior brother returns to Tiannan after finishing his work, he will take back the demon pills and demon beast materials we purchased, and let the alchemists in the sect refine the foundation-building elixirs, and the weapon refiners refine them into magic weapons."
"I really didn't expect that the demon elixirs and demon beast materials in Luan Xinghai could be so cheap. The high-end ones are quite expensive, but the low-end ones are basically as cheap as cabbage."
Lan Junyan looked at the prosperous scene outside the window and said with emotion: "This Luan Xing Sea is really uniquely blessed with endless monster resources. Tiannan is really a remote place compared to Luan Xing Sea."
Jiang Yun nodded and expressed his opinion: "There are also many spiritual veins in Luan Xinghai. It is indeed a good place."
"There is a completely different place between the Chaos Star Sea and Tiannan. Although the countries in Tiannan are attacking each other, we are all human beings. Even if one side loses, at least the survival of mortals is not a problem."
"But there is only a life-and-death struggle between humans and monsters in the Luan Xing Sea. This may be the reason why the folk customs in the Luan Xing Sea are simple and worship the strong. I like this very much and think the people here are very cute."
"But the human race is a forgetful race after all. If their lives are better, they will forget about external threats and start fighting among themselves."
"I hope there can be peace here for a while longer!"
