Chapter 90 Third-order method
Even for Taixu Pavilion, the largest store in Montenegro, the third-level spiritual objects in the store are considered the treasure of the store.
There are a total of more than thirty foundation-building monks in Black Mountain. With such a small number, it would be difficult to sell a third-level spiritual object in a year and a half.
Therefore, even Taixu Pavilion mainly focuses on business during the Qi training period.
Zhang Zhixuan and Zhang Leqian followed Liang Hanyang into the third floor of Taixu Pavilion.
The third floor is relatively empty, with a total of more than a dozen spiritual objects placed. Each spiritual object is attached with an anti-theft talisman. Once these spiritual objects are moved, the talisman above will sound an alarm and notify the monks stationed there.
Among these dozen spiritual objects, the number of magic weapons is very small, only three.
Zhang Zhixuan first looked at a red flying sword. The flying sword looked sparkling and full of spirituality.
“This sword is called the Red Flame Sword. It is a third-level low-grade sword. It can emit a stream of spiritual fire to attack the enemy. My fellow Taoist has not been building the foundation for a long time, so it is very suitable for using this magical weapon.
Moreover, the price of this magic weapon is not high. For only four hundred and sixty spiritual stones, fellow Taoists can take it away. “
“The main power of the Red Flame Sword is the spiritual fire attached to it, and my magic Samadhi True Fire is already good, but its effects are somewhat repetitive. Let’s look at another one.”
Zhang Zhixuan thought for a moment and then moved his eyes elsewhere.
The second magic weapon is the flying sword magic weapon. This is a pair of golden flying swords. This pair of flying swords looks very sharp and should be a metal magic weapon.
“This sword is called the Golden Guangzi Mother Sword, and it is also a third-level low-grade magic weapon. Not only is it extremely sharp, but it can also be used silently.
Especially a sword, it is difficult to find traces when facing the enemy, and it is very suitable for sneak attack on the enemy. However, this magical weapon is more expensive and requires six hundred spirit stones. “Liang Hanyang followed Zhang Zhixuan and saw him looking at the Golden Guangzi Mother Sword, so he introduced this magical weapon to him.
The last magic weapon is a blue gourd. The gourd magic weapon looks the most magical. It is spinning slightly on the counter and there is a magic talisman attached to the mouth of the gourd.
Seeing Zhang Zhixuan looking at the gourd magical artifact, Liang Hanyang sighed and said: “The Xuanyin Gourd is the most valuable magical artifact in our store. It has been kept in our store for hundreds of years since it was successfully refined. This magical artifact has reached the third level. Top grade, it can refine Xuanyin True Water, and when facing enemies, it can release the True Water to attack the enemy.
Unfortunately, this magic weapon is also the most expensive. If fellow Taoist likes it, it will take at least two thousand spirit stones to take it away. “
Zhang Zhixuan has the three attributes of fire, metal, and wood. Using the Xuanyin Gourd cannot bring out the power of this magical weapon.
Although this magical weapon is good, it is not suitable for Zhang Zhixuan at all. Besides, he does not have so many spiritual stones to buy this magical weapon.
Therefore, his only choices were the red flame sword and the golden light son sword.
Zhang Zhixuan thought about it for a while, and finally chose the more expensive Golden Light Son-Mother Sword.
In the end, Zhang Zhixuan spent 2,600 spirit stones to buy a bottle of Immortal Dew Pill, a third-level magic weapon, and ten bottles of Youhuan Dan.
For the remaining seven hundred spirit stones, Zhang Zhixuan also bought some specialties from Montenegro and spent all the three thousand one hundred spirit stones.
The five major families take turns to trade in Montenegro. It takes five years to come to Montenegro again. These resources unique to Montenegro will be more valuable if transported to Lushan.
Especially the seeds of Xuanzhumi are even more important to the Zhang family.
Xuanzhu rice, also known as black pearl, is a kind of spiritual rice with grains as big as a child’s finger and its quality far exceeds that of chalcedony rice.
. Throughout the Black Mountains, most of the spiritual rice is planted because of the higher quality of the spiritual fields.
Two of the several kinds of spiritual wine mastered by the Zhang family require Xuanzhu rice as raw materials.
The Zhang family’s spiritual wine has been sold in Xihefang for three years.
In the past three years, the monks in Xihefang have accepted several kinds of spiritual wine.
Every year when a spirit wine is put on the market, it will bring profits of hundreds of spirit stones to the Zhang family.
Although this business cannot be said to be a huge profit, it has become an important source of income for the Zhang family over time.
After leaving Taixu Pavilion, the monks from Taicheng County rested for three days in Heishanfang and then began to pack their bags and prepare to return to their hometown.
This kind of transportation of materials has been carried out for hundreds of years.
From the first day when Black Mountain was established, there was support from Taicheng County monks.
It is precisely because of the continuous transportation behind them that countless black mountain cultivators will not starve to death and will gradually prosper, and Patriarch Liang will be able to achieve his prestige.
Just when Zhang Zhixuan organized his people and prepared to leave Montenegro, behind the scenes, unknown to him, a group of people were secretly planning to keep them in Montenegro completely.
This group of people is none other than Wang Zixuan’s husband, Lu Zichen.
Lu Zichen is already forty-eight years old this year, and his cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi training. If he waits for more than ten years, he will miss the opportunity to build his foundation.
Although he is nothing, his father is Lu Yi’an, who has built a foundation for more than a century.
This person is also considered a relatively well-known casual cultivator in Montenegro. He has now reached the sixth level of foundation building and is only one step away from entering the late stage of foundation building.
After Lu Yi’an established the foundation, he killed a third-level mid-level monster in Roolu Mountain near Black Mountain, and then placed his cave in Roolu Mountain.
After that, he took many wives and concubines. Because the Southern Wilderness was not suitable for human habitation, he sent his wife and daughter to Black Mountain, which was already suitable for human habitation.
Although he gave birth to more than a dozen children, only three or five had spiritual roots, and the one with the best qualifications was Lu Zichen.
The reason why Wang Zixuan married Lu Zichen was to rely on his background.
The reason why Lu Zichen was willing to marry her was, firstly, because he coveted her youth and beauty, and secondly, for the financial resources of Baibao Pavilion.
The annual profit of a large store like Baibao Pavilion exceeds three hundred spirit stones.
Even without the second-level high-grade alchemist Wang Lianke, the profit after one year is still very considerable.
But if you want to open such a large-scale store in the chaotic Black Mountain, you must have the support of foundation-building monks.
The house in the First Hundred Treasure Pavilion is owned by Heishan, and he has to pay a generous rent every year to continue renting it.
This amount of funds will be used to maintain the fifth-level formation on Black Mountain, so the rents for shops on Black Mountain are higher than those in the other six cities in the Southern Wasteland.
If the store cannot continue to make profits, it will have to continue to lose money, and eventually it will not be able to survive and will have to close down.
Only foundation-building monks with strong financial resources can support it for a few more years until the day it turns losses into profits.
Secondly, foundation-building monks are older and more experienced. Not only do they have strong magic power, but they also know all kinds of immortal cultivation skills, and their level must be good.
Especially the casual cultivators on Black Mountain, many of whom are generalists, only with their presence can we provide some good resources.
With good stuff, there will be a steady stream of customers.
Thirdly, the competition among monks in the foundation-building stage near Black Mountain is far less intense than that of casual cultivators in the Qi-training stage, and they all have more or less strong connections.
With their protection, the monks in the shop can leave Black Mountain to search for elixirs and acquire various resources.
And if there are no foundation-building monks as backers, the monks in the shop will have to be trapped in the Black Mountain for the rest of their lives, and their operating costs will be much higher.
Moreover, Black Mountain has never been a safe place. Despite the ban imposed by Ancestor Liang, no one dared to openly attack Fangshi.
But in the secret, the monk’s methods are mysterious and unpredictable. If you block someone else’s way of making money, there will always be countless ways for a foundation-building monk to plot against his opponent during the Qi training period.
Therefore, if there are no foundation-building monks behind it, opening a big store in Black Mountain will never last long.
This is also the reason why Zhang Zhixuan asked Wang Zixuan to give up Baibao Pavilion.
