Chapter 138 Introduction

Master Qian of Qianhe Sect was thinking seriously about Zheng Fa's words.

Qianhe Sect is also a member of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, but is far inferior to Jiushan Sect - Jiushan Sect has three Nascent Soul True Immortals and is a major sect in the Hundred Immortals Alliance.

The strongest person in Qianhe Sect is only the Golden Core.

Therefore, their market town was not as prosperous as that of Jiushan Sect before.

The cost of the welcoming boat is actually quite high for Qianhe Sect's market - if, as Zheng Fa said, Jiushan Sect has already sucked away all the surrounding tourists, then the welcoming boat is indeed not worth the cost.

But Qianhe Sect is not without its own characteristics.

They are very experienced in growing spiritual grains, especially yellow sprout rice, and are somewhat famous in the Baixian League.

"Then how do we sell the spiritual valley of our Qianhe Sect in Jiushan Sect?" Master Qian thought for a while but did not seem particularly happy. He knew that Zheng Fa had specially asked him to come here for some request.

"Master Qian, I am here on behalf of Jiushan Sect Market and would like to cooperate with your sect." Zheng Fa said with a smile: "How to sell it is of course up to your sect's choice."

"First, of course, your clan will rent a storefront and sell the goods in our market - you will be responsible for your own profits and losses."

"Master Zheng, you don't know how difficult it is to rent a storefront in your sect..." Master Qian said with a wry smile.

Zheng Fa certainly knew.

Ever since the Jiushan Zongfang Market has gradually become prosperous.

The rent in Fangshi has not started to rise yet.

Transfer fees have skyrocketed.

If Qianhe Sect wants to find a store, it will cost a lot.

Besides, there are spiritual grains for sale in the market town - renting a shop would be too risky for Qianhe Sect.

Zheng Fa is just talking about this option.

"Second, it is our market that is cooperating with you. We will purchase the yellow sprout rice from your Qianhe Sect, and you only need to take care of the planting... Your sect does not need to worry about the store or the profit and loss."

"..." Master Qian gradually understood what Zheng Fa meant: "We only need to supply goods to Jiushan Sect in the future?"

"right."

"What's the price?"

"One spirit stone and three stones."

"No!" Master Qian's lips trembled: "This is the price in our own market!"

"That means there is no business in your own market?" Zheng Fa said in a low voice.

"..." Upon hearing this, Master Qian became even angrier.

This is of course true, Zheng Fa picked up people boatloads of them.

All the disciples of Qianhe Sect come to Jiushan Sect to shop.

What business is there in Qianhe Sect's market? "No room for negotiation?" Zheng Fa said, seeing his angry look.

“Not at all!”

Master Qian threw away his sleeves and wanted to leave.

"At least three hundred stones a month."

Master Qian stopped abruptly.

"At least... three hundred stones?"

"No more, no less."

Master Qian's expression became conflicted.

Three hundred shi is roughly equivalent to one hundred spirit stones.

This amount of money is not too little for Jiushan Zongfang City.

What’s more, for Qianhe Sect, the situation is becoming increasingly difficult, especially now.

Otherwise, Master Qian wouldn't have thought of coming here to steal my skills.

"Master Zheng... this price is too low."

"Master Qian." Zheng Fa's face showed an expression that left no room for doubt: "The Qianhe Sect is not the only one in the Baixian League that can grow spiritual grains. I can also find other sects."

"Don't!" Master Qian said hurriedly, "We can discuss it. I'll go back and report to the headmaster. We can definitely discuss it!"

When Master Qian left, there was a mixture of sadness and joy on his face - it seemed that he didn't know whether the headmaster would scold him or praise him for bringing back such a large order.

But Zheng Fa and he both knew that Qianhe Sect would definitely agree.

The Jiushan Sect has almost drained away all the visitors from the vicinity.

If Qianhe Sect doesn’t want to lose money, it can only become a supplier to Jiushan Sect.

Although the profit is a little less, it is a small profit but a large sales volume.

Looking at his back, Senior Sister Yuan turned to Zheng Fa and asked, "Junior Brother Zheng, why did you insist on ordering yellow sprout rice from them?"

There were several other senior brothers in the small building, all looking at Zheng Fa with puzzled expressions.

"The products in our market are too simple. We must have more attractive goods." Zheng Fa explained, "Besides, didn't Senior Sister Yuan say that yellow sprout rice is delicious?"

When Senior Sister Yuan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.

The yellow sprout rice was indeed carefully selected by Senior Sister Yuan, and Zheng Fa also thought it was delicious after eating it.

"But isn't 300 koku a bit too much? What if we can't sell it?"

Senior Sister Yuan is still a little worried.

"Senior Sister Yuan, have you calculated how much spiritual grain our Jiushan Sect consumes in a month?"

"Um?"

"Not counting the family members and followers of the disciples in our Jiushan Sect, there are almost a thousand people." Zheng Fa calculated, "A disciple consumes about five or six taels of spiritual grain a day, which is one-fifth of a stone a month, which means at least more than 200 stones a month. If we include those relatives, 300 stones is definitely less."

According to the calculation of Xuanweijie, one stone is about nine hundred taels, which is the consumption of the disciples of Jiushan Sect. These three hundred stones are almost done.

"You mean... these spiritual grains were bought for the disciples?"

"Senior Sister Yuan, I wonder if you have noticed that the price of spiritual grain in our market has increased." Zheng Fa said softly.

"This... seems to be a little bit." As a Jindan cultivator, Senior Sister Yuan was not so sensitive to this. She thought about it carefully for a while before frowning and saying, "This group of profiteers!"

"It's not necessarily intentional on their part." Zheng Fa shook his head: "During this period, everyone has made money. Not only the price of spiritual grains, but other things are also rising."

To put it in an exaggerated way, this is just a small-scale inflation in the Jiushan Sect.

That's not a bad thing either.

After all, this is because the disciples of Jiushan Sect are richer than before.

"I thought that not everyone has become rich. Some disciples, especially the new disciples, can't make any money at all and just live on the monthly subsidies." Zheng Fazhao explained to these people: "These affordable yellow sprout rice are exactly what they need."

Zheng Fa ordered yellow sprout rice from Qianhe Sect in order to consolidate Jiushan Sect's current advantage - the mall now has traffic, so of course it needs some flagship products, otherwise all you'll get are some talismans.

It's such a waste of the drama created by Zheng Fa.

But the main reason was that he saw that some disciples at the bottom level not only did not become wealthy due to the development of Jiushan Sect.

Instead, life became even more difficult.

In this round of development of Jiushan Sect, those who got rich were the big families behind the shops and the vendors who had some connections and capital.

But the poorest group of people basically did not enjoy much benefit.

Instead, they have to bear the rising prices.

After all, this is the Zhengfa version of the "vegetable basket" project.

Inside the room, the looks these brothers gave him gradually changed, seeming to be somewhat resentful.

"My fellow brothers, why do you look at me like this?"

“…Junior brother, you were born so late!” A senior brother named Yang suddenly sighed.

…

Zheng Fajia sat on a cushion, preparing to condense his fifth Yuan Fu.

This time, what he wanted to condense was the Yin Fire Yuan Fu - Juxia Fu.

Fire element symbols are mostly offensive.

But Zheng Fa is not needed much now.

The Juxia Fu is very suitable for him - this talisman can allow the cultivator to transform into a ray of light and fly in the air, which is convenient for traveling in modern times.

After all, we have radars and other things in modern times. If it were any other way of flying, it might be regarded as a UFO.

It would be much better with the cover of the sunset.

Now, he was quite familiar with condensing the Yuan Fu. After swallowing the Ning Yuan Pill, in less than an incense stick of time, the Juxia Fu appeared in his Dantian.

What surprised him was that after the Juxia Talisman took shape, the five Yin elements merged into one and slowly began to rotate in his Dantian.

A golden lotus platform appeared in his dantian. On the lotus petals were painted the Standing Shadowless Talisman, the Frost Blade Talisman, the Nourishing Spirit Talisman, the Evergreen Talisman and the Raising Clouds Talisman.

But what attracted Zheng Fa's attention the most was the phantom of a lotus platform growing at the bottom of the lotus platform - although there were only some illusory golden lines, the shape of the lotus seat and lotus petals were also very obvious.

He couldn't help but think of what Senior Sister Zhang had told him about the mutual generation of yin and yang.

Just as his consciousness was immersed in his dantian, five-colored rays of light suddenly fell from the sky above his yard.

The rosy glow surrounded the quiet room where Zheng Fa was practicing, attracting the attention of all the monks living nearby.

"Junior Brother Han, what is this?"

Senior Brother Li asked Han Qi.

Today is the day Han Qi is going to introduce him to Zheng Fa.

"It's okay. Junior Brother Zheng must have made some progress in his cultivation."

Han Qi said, with a look of pride on his face: "Although Junior Brother Zheng has dual spiritual roots, I heard that his current progress speed is the fastest among their group of new disciples, not inferior to those with single spiritual roots."

Senior Brother Li nodded, but his expression became even more nervous.

Zheng Fayue is a genius.

The more he worried, the more worried he was about whether Zheng Fa would like him.

The cold stares he had endured in Jiushan Sect for so many years had almost made him lose confidence.

Han Qi saw his expression and probably knew what he was thinking, so he suddenly asked, "Brother, did you buy a new set of clothes today?"

Senior Brother Li smiled shyly and said, "There is very cheap yellow sprout rice on sale in the market today. I have some money left, so I want to dress decently so that Junior Brother Zheng won't think I'm disrespectful..."

"The yellow sprout rice was bought by Junior Brother Zheng specifically for us disciples to eat."

"ah?"

Han Qi smiled at Senior Brother Li and said, "I don't know whether Junior Brother Zheng will like the talisman, but Senior Brother Li, Junior Brother Zheng is not someone who looks down on us."

Senior Brother Li took a look at his new clothes, was silent for a while, and finally smiled, with a look of relief on his face.

…

"Junior Brother Zheng, this is Senior Brother Li Nuo."

Han Qi brought Senior Brother Li to Zheng Fa and introduced him to him.

"Brother Li, nice to meet you."

Seeing Senior Brother Li with an unnatural look on his face, Zheng Fa took the initiative to greet him.

Senior Brother Li was stunned and bowed to Zheng Fa in panic, as if no one had spoken to him like this for a long time.

"Senior Brother Han, you invited Senior Brother Li here because..."

Han Qi looked at Senior Brother Li and said, "Senior Brother Li, let you speak for yourself."

"I...I would like to ask Junior Brother Zheng to lend me some spirit stones." Senior Brother Li was silent for a long time, and then he spoke.

Borrowing money? Zheng Fa blinked and looked at Han Qi in confusion - is this person his relative?

"..." Han Qi was also a little speechless: "Junior Brother Zheng, please understand. Senior Brother Li borrowed money not for himself, but for research."

"Research?"

Zheng Fa finally became interested. There were not many people in Jiushan Sect who liked to study this.

Looking at Senior Brother Li who was having a hard time explaining himself, Zheng Fa asked, "What are you researching?"

"Sign."

Senior Brother Li took out a blood-colored cube from his arms, on which was engraved the pattern of a golden armor talisman.

"A talisman?"

Is this rune printing? Zheng Fa took the cube and looked at Senior Brother Li, with a hint of brilliance in his eyes: "Just this one?"

"This is the only one that succeeded. The others...will explode."

Zheng Fa's hands trembled. Why didn't you say so earlier?

Li Nuo said sadly: "My father was accidentally killed in an explosion while studying talismans."

"...Brother Li, do you have any words?"

"My nickname is Shicheng." Li Nuo answered a little confused.

Fortunately, it’s not Zibel.
