Chapter 259 People are in panic, and the evil cultivators attack! 【44, please subscribe】
The news of the invasion by the remnants of the Blood Demon Sect was finally exposed!
First, the well-informed major forces hoarded goods, and then the small chambers of commerce realized that something was wrong and began to hoard goods.
By the time the independent cultivators in Xishan City finally found that the prices of whatever they wanted to buy had increased, or they were simply unable to buy it, even a fool could tell that something was wrong!
The news of the Blood Demon Sect naturally spread like wildfire!
The Chihong Sect did not come out to clarify, as if it had already acquiesced.
As a result, the prices of elixirs, magic tools, talismans and other things on the market have skyrocketed every day, and even spiritual rice and ordinary rice and flour have increased by more than two or three times.
A sign of impending storm has made the people of Xishan City panic!
In the midst of the chaos, every independent cultivator was frantically stockpiling supplies, fearing that they would be affected by the war and even lose their lives in the end.
The streets were filled with monks in a hurry!
Many casual cultivators who were slow to realize the situation began knocking on stores to buy life-saving items!
But they were waving the spirit stones in their hands, but they couldn't even buy a decent magic weapon. This made the casual cultivators furious and cursing, and the atmosphere became even more tense.
…
the next day
In the courtyard!
Lu Yan sighed in annoyance: "What a pity, what a pity, I just raided five stores and the news has spread. I won't make much money now."
"No problem!"
Wei Han also raided several stores!
Logically speaking, the prices of materials have increased by one or two times, and the prices of finished magic tools and elixirs have increased by three or four times, and there is a possibility that the prices will continue to rise in the future.
As long as there is no big chamber of commerce to transfer goods from other places!
Then you can still make a lot of money in a short period of time.
"I thought it would take a few days for things to get chaotic, but it happened so soon!" Lu Yan said helplessly, "I have asked the Sihai Chamber of Commerce to buy the Lingxu Gold Thread and Void Spirit Crystal you asked for, and they paid a deposit of 20,000 Spirit Stones for it. They said things are not peaceful recently, and it will take time to transfer the goods. It will probably take at least half a month."
Wei Han nodded when he heard this, but didn't say much!
It's just time, he can wait!
Furthermore, now that the remnants of the Blood Demon Sect are causing chaos, the major chambers of commerce will most likely suspend transferring goods to other places, and tacitly cooperate in hoarding goods and driving up prices, ultimately severely cheating the independent cultivators.
Lu Yan was already satisfied that he could successfully place an order with the Sihai Chamber of Commerce!
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Wei Han opened the formation and the gate and walked out to take a look.
He found out that it was Duan Tianhe. He saw Wei Han and Lu Yan together and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Daoyou Lu is here too?"
"Daoyou Duan!" Lu Yan smiled and bowed. In the past six months, he has used the alias Lu Gui and has become familiar with the neighbors. So he explained casually: "It's not that prices have risen recently, I want to invite Daoyou Dian to go out and buy some things together."
"Hey!" Duan Tianhe cursed angrily, "It's useless for you to think about purchasing now. Those damn profiteers outside are raising prices three times a day. We can't live like this anymore!"
"Fellow Daoist Duan, you and your wife are one an alchemist and the other a talisman painter. No matter how much the war happens, it won't affect you, right? Shouldn't you be happy about the rising prices?" Wei Han joked with a smile.
"You don't know!" Duan Tianhe said helplessly: "I don't know which damn person has cleared out all the shops in half of the city, so we can't even buy raw materials. The materials we do have are several times more expensive. Sigh..."
Lu Yan and Wei Han looked at each other.
The two of them burst out laughing and felt a little embarrassed.
Aren’t they the ones who participated in the raid?
"You probably don't know." Duan Tianhe continued to ramble, "Two days ago, the first-grade lower-grade yellow sprout spiritual rice was only 45 spirit stones, but now it costs two spirit stones per pound, and there is a purchase limit. Many casual cultivators can only eat ordinary rice. Come on, let's go buy some together. If we don't go now, the price will go up..."
“No need!” Wei Han stopped him, took out two bags of spiritual rice and several hundred kilograms of monster meat from his storage bag, and said with a smile: “I bought a bit too much last time, and I can’t eat it all by myself. Daoist Duan, take it back and eat it first. After the turmoil, just return it to me.”
"This? How can this be possible?" Duan Tianhe asked in surprise: "How about I settle it for you according to the current market price?"
"No problem!" Wei Han waved his hand nonchalantly: "We are all neighbors, and you have helped us a lot on weekdays, so why should you be polite?"
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Duan." Lu Yan also smiled and said, "At worst, I can pay it back later. You're welcome!"
Duan Tianhe opened his mouth when he heard that!
In the end, he didn't say anything, just smiled gratefully.
After putting away the spiritual rice and monster meat handed to him by Wei Han, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although cultivators have a large appetite, these things are enough to sustain them for a while!
I think we can survive this turmoil!
"Thanks to Fellow Daoist Dian. If it weren't for you, the little spiritual stones I squeezed out of my hands would have been squeezed out by them." Duan Tianhe sighed bitterly, raised his hand and took out a handful of talismans and stuffed them into Wei Han's hands: "This is the continuous fireball talisman and water shield talisman I drew myself. They are worth a little money. You can use them in case of trouble. Don't despise them!"
"How could I dislike it? You should thank me, fellow Taoist. It's not easy to buy these talismans nowadays." Wei Han joked with a laugh.
However, Lu Yan's mouth twitched!
Can’t buy it? He would send out more than a thousand talismans every few days. Wei Han must have more of these in stock. It would be strange if he couldn't buy them.
But he was tactful enough not to say anything more.
In this turmoil, I don't know how many scattered cultivators are worried and anxious. Everyone is thinking about preparing more life-saving things. The world of cultivating immortals is even less safe than the mundane world.
"My two fellow Taoists, I'm going back first!" Duan Tianhe bowed and said, "It's not peaceful recently, don't go out, just use the formation to hide at home. If there is any problem, we can help each other. Goodbye!"
"good!!"
Wei Han nodded and said farewell!
Duan Tianhe turned around and went back to his own courtyard.
But just as Wei Han was about to close the gate, he saw a figure acting suspiciously on the street corner, and the figure looked somewhat familiar.
"Is this Xu Erfa?" Wei Han murmured.
"Is it him?"
Lu Yan also frowned and looked over.
There are probably few people in the entire street of casual cultivators who don't know Xu Erfa. Lu Yan was also approached by him not long after he moved in, and he invited him to go out treasure hunting.
Lu Yan is a cautious person and naturally did not fall for it.
Now seeing the other party looking around furtively, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"What evil idea is this bastard up to? I'm going to crush him to death."
Lu Yan clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with ferocity.
Wei Han narrowed his eyes and was about to say something!
All I heard was a loud explosion and screams coming from a distance.
The entire western city's scattered cultivators' market seemed to explode with an earth-shaking roar of fighting. All kinds of magical waves swept out, affecting countless houses.
"Oh no, demon cultivators!" Lu Yan's face suddenly changed: "These damn guys really set their sights on Xishan City. Are they going to take action?"
