"For this kind of person, the goods will usually be with his accomplices, not himself. If he meets the right one, he will negotiate a good deal."
"No matter how careful you are, there will still be situations where the gangsters take advantage of the gangsters. This is just to avoid being targeted by too many people."
Jian Niu Youdao didn't seem to know the details here, and all he asked was some layman's words. Yuanfang also looked confused and didn't know anything. Black Mudan introduced him all the way, but he was a little confused in his heart, worried about whether he had seen it or not. Wandered.
Lei Zongkang, Wu Sanliang, and Duan Hu who were following him looked at each other from time to time, with the same doubts in their eyes.
Lei Zongkang frowned obviously and hesitated to speak.
"Do you usually behave like this?" Niu Youdao asked casually.
"There is nothing we can do about it. The purchase price of those sect shops is really too low, forcing people to take desperate risks."
Black Peony explained slightly awkwardly, then turned around and pointed to the surrounding shops to change the topic, "There are many shops here. Just because you are from a sect, you are qualified to open a shop here, but most of the sects that can open a shop here are a little bit different." In terms of strength, the cost of owning a shop here is not low, and it is a bit too small for a small sect. And those are the only things people use in practice, so even though there are many shops here, most of the things sold are the same, and many sects sell them here. The shops are just for convenience, and the business is just incidental. If you have it, you can do it. If you don’t have it, it doesn’t matter.”
"Usually, the shops that do serious business are those sects with special expertise. For example, Lingzong is the largest alchemy sect in the spiritual world because it is good at refining elixirs. Naturally, the shops opened here are shops selling elixirs. ; Qiyun Sect is the largest sect in the cultivation world that refines magic weapons, and it opens a magic weapon shop; Wanshou Sect is good at taming birds and beasts, and sells these things; Tianxing Sect is good at formations, and sells them All kinds of talismans and seals. The shops opened by sects like these are the real moneymakers. These sects with special skills naturally have strong financial resources, and many sects have direct business dealings with them."
Niu Youdao had read about these sects in "Shangqing Shiyilu". At this time, he was excited to hear them. He came here to broaden his horizons. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Let's go and have a look at these sects."
Black Mudan and others naturally led the way, but it was actually easy to find them without leading the way.
As Black Peony said, these sects specialize in serious business. Both the area and scale of the shops are very large. They are very conspicuous when standing in the city.
The group first came to the nearby Tianxing Sect shop. The atmosphere here was a bit special, as if there were many soul tablets of dead people. In fact, they were not soul tablets, but wood-carved charms, similar to samples. The price was marked on it. You If necessary, we will take out the physical items and sell them.
Niu Youdao, who came into contact with it for the first time, was amazed by the variety of talismans.
The key to the talisman is the way in which the energy in the talisman is stored and released, which can play different magical uses. Many monks know some refining methods, but using their own magic power to make the talisman is extremely consuming. Only when the source of natal law is injected into it.
For example, the Dharma-transmitting amulet in Niu Youdao's body is a kind of amulet made by Dongguo Haoran's output of his own natal Dharma source.
Under normal circumstances, no one would use the source of their own natal magic that they have practiced hard to do this.
According to "Shangqing Supplementary Records", Tianxing Sect broke through this key and mastered the method of collecting spiritual energy outside the body to gather energy, utilized it to the extreme, arranged it on a special carrier, and made Talisman seals for sale.
For example, horses have physical limitations when running, and they need to rest and recover along the way. However, a certain talisman from the Tianxing Sect can be blessed, allowing the horses to gallop non-stop all day long, allowing them to travel quickly. However, when the energy of the talisman is exhausted, the horse will fall dead. Generally, no one will use this kind of talisman except under special circumstances.
There are also talismans to ward off evil spirits. Once this kind of talisman is used, it can produce mana fluctuations when placed at home, making approaching demons and ghosts mistakenly think that there is a monk and dare not invade.
There are also talismans that can directly kill people due to violent energy, and there are also immobilization talismans that can immobilize people under the restraint of energy.
However, most of these talismans are disposable and not cheap. They cost almost as much as burning money. Ordinary people cannot control them, only monks can control them. The talisman is dead and the person is alive, so there is a certain degree of uncertainty in its use.
So Niu Youdao just came in to watch and experience it, and had no intention of buying. He couldn't buy anything with the money he had.
After leaving this store, the group went to Qiyun Sect, which actually sells a variety of weapons and accepts various weapon customizations.
The reason why everyone comes to Qiyun Sect to buy weapons is naturally not only because the things they refine are exquisite, but also because they have a unique secret method of refining them.
Ordinary swords are easy to break when cutting each other, not to mention monks who attack with fierce force. Ordinary swords are actually very easy to break. The ones produced by Qiyun Sect can naturally solve this problem to a certain extent. The higher the price, the better.
After wandering around the shop, Niu Youdao was thinking about customizing a batch of daggers for Yuan Gang. Yuanfang's Jie Dao also needed to be replaced. However, things from Qiyun Sect were not cheap, and they were selling so-called precious knives, swords, etc. Yes, I don’t have enough money on hand for the time being, so I can only take a look around.
The group came out of Qiyun Sect and strolled on the street.
Beside the street, a person stood at an intersection, looking around, as if searching for something. After his eyes inadvertently glanced at Black Mudan and others, he was startled for a moment, and then quickly returned to Black Mudan and others, focusing on them. On Niu Youdao's face.
After Niu Youdao and others passed by, he quietly blended into the crowd on the street and followed closely behind.
Not long after, he watched Niu Youdao and others enter Lingzong's shop. He did not follow them, but waited diagonally across the street.
In the Lingzong shop, Niu Youdao just took a look around casually. He didn't need the Lingyuan Pill for cultivation yet, but Yuanfang did. However, the two of them had limited financial resources. If they didn't buy enough, it would make people laugh, and there was no need to add more. Black Mudan and others had doubts, so they only spent a thousand gold coins to buy some medicine.
As the group came out, the people waiting on the street merged into the crowd and followed.
The shops at Wanshoumen are quite interesting. All kinds of tamed birds and beasts are kept in cages for people to watch, which is an eye-opener. All of them are tamed. As long as you buy them, Wanshoumen will teach the buyers how to control them.
Various birds and beasts have different functions and different prices. The 'golden wings' used for communication are considered cheap and are the most frequently sold.
What is really expensive are the various large birds that are kept in cages inside. Some of the birds are as tall as one foot standing on the ground.
These are flying mounts that can be ridden by people. It is inconvenient for ordinary people to control them. If you were to sit on this kind of bird, even though the bird is large, it would be difficult to fly with a heavy load. It is most suitable for monks to use a little magic and control the air to control it. It is a good thing for traveling long distances.
Nowadays, such large birds are very rare in the wild. They are either caught or hunted. It is also very difficult to breed such things. It is not as simple as hatching chicks and birds. However, Wanshou Sect knows how to breed and breed them. This is also the reason why it is sold in the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate store.
This kind of bird is good as a mount, but the price is ridiculously expensive. It easily costs tens of millions of gold coins, so not everyone can afford it.
"If it doesn't open for three years, it will last for three years if it opens!" Niu Youdao stared at the price and clicked his tongue.
One line can only open your eyes and take a look.
After leaving the shop at Ten Thousand Beasts Gate, the group strolled around the city again. After enjoying themselves, they returned to Yaoyue Inn.
Outside the inn, some envious people pointed and muttered at the back of Black Peony who disappeared into the inn.
The man who had been following him showed up at this moment, walked towards some of the people who were pointing, and asked, "What are you muttering about here?"
"Hey! Mr. Huang." Several people looked back and saw that they were disciples of the Liuxian Sect, and they all greeted him politely.
The visitor's name was Huang Engui, one of the disciples of the Liuxian Sect stationed at the shop here. He seemed to be just a shop clerk, but to this group of casual cultivators, he was not something they could afford to offend.
Huang Engui raised his chin toward the inn, "What are you pointing at?"
One person sighed and shook his head, saying: "Master Huang doesn't know something. Black Peony is the dark-skinned woman who often walks around this city. Does Master Huang know her?"
Huang Engui hummed, "I know, what's wrong?"
The man sighed: "Come on, you know, it won't be long before a sect is established. I don't know what method this woman used, but it is conceivable that women, that's not all. Taking off is worth a thousand words."
Huang Engui laughed and heard the sour taste in the other party's words, but this was not what he cared about. He smiled and said: "This is a good thing. Are you jealous? By the way, who are you dating? Who is the master of any sect?" Introduce her as a guarantor?"
The man shook his head and said: "The real owner looks quite young. I don't know which sect he belongs to. I guess there are names on the list registered by the shopkeeper. However, Yaoyue Inn will not disclose any information about the guests, nor will they tell We are not."
"Ha, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. You can go get envious slowly." Huang Engui happily patted his shoulder, glanced at the inn, and turned around to leave.
The man shouted: "Master Huang, why don't you help me talk to the Liuxian Sect."
Huang Engui turned his back and waved his hands as he left, "I can't be the master, you should wait here for the opportunity!"
Despite this, several people still complimented him, "Master Huang, go slow."
Liuxian Sect's shop was sparsely populated, and it was not a serious shop selling things.
Huang Engui, who came back quickly, entered the store, went straight to the counter, and shouted to the shopkeeper who was sitting cross-legged behind the counter: "Uncle, show me the portrait again."
The shopkeeper opened his eyes, "What portrait?"
Huang Engui: "Didn't you ask us to stare at the painting from the Song family on the street? Niu Youdao, I seemed to have seen him just now."
"Seriously?" The shopkeeper stood up suddenly, pulled out a roll of paper and threw it on the counter, gesturing for him to take a quick look. ,.
