Chapter 48: The Practitioner's Transaction
Because he was afraid of missing any news and arousing suspicion, Chu Liang didn't care about Yun Chaoxian anymore, closed the door and took out the soul arrest order to check.
His spiritual consciousness penetrated into the soul space and saw the golden news in it.
[Fifty-nine]: "I got an ancient ape essence. I can't use it myself. I want to exchange it for other treasures. Does anyone want it?"
oh?
It turns out that this group is also used for doing business.
Immediately following it were some nasty comments.
[Evil]: "The ancient ape essence is quite rare and cannot be derived unless the right time and place come together. If it is given to fighting ghosts and ghosts, it can increase their combat power by a large level. How much is this essence of yours?"
hundred-year?"
【59】: "About three hundred years."
[Sha]: "That's quite precious. Let's see if they want it first. If not, I can forward it to other soul realm spaces for you to ask."
[Fifty-nine]: "Thank you, Zunsha!"
His explanation was quite considerate, and Chu Liang immediately understood the function of this thing.
Among the ghosts, there are unpredictable ones such as painted-skin ghosts and seductive ghosts, as well as head-on fighting types such as sword-wielding ghosts and Rakshasa ghosts. This ancient ape spirit may be like a tiger-reinforcing pill for ghosts to eat, which can strengthen them.
the power of.
No matter what it is, as long as it is for ghosts to eat, I will definitely not be able to use it.
But now that I am pretending to be "fifty-eight", I am a little undecided...do I need it?
I can only remain silent for now.
Not long after, there was another reply.
[Sixty]: "I want it. What do you want to change it for?"
[Fifty-nine]: "I haven't thought about it, as long as the value matches and it is useful to me."
[Sixty]: "Then I will exchange two Milo green leaves with you?"
[Evil]: "Miluo Qingye can store many ghosts, which is much more convenient than the commonly used vase technique. Moreover, ghosts can live in it and nourish themselves, increase their cultivation, and have many benefits. Two pieces of Miluo Qingye, pour
It’s enough to exchange for your ancient ape essence.”
[Fifty-nine]: "Since Zun Sha said so, of course it is possible. Where are you now? Is there a Taotie Pavilion nearby?"
[Sixty]: "Yes, Nanguan City Taotie Pavilion."
[Fifty-nine]: "Then you send Milo Qingye to Taotie Pavilion in Baihua City, and I will send the ancient ape essence here to Nanguan City."
[Sixty]: "Okay."
In just a few words, a business was happily concluded.
Only then did Chu Liang appear.
【58】: "Oh, it's a pity that he got one step ahead."
[Fifty-nine]: "Haha, senior, wait until next time."
【58】: "Okay."
I simply took a nap, then logged off again, and retired with success.
It was just a simple treasure transaction, not much communication. However, Chu Liang also analyzed some special information from it.
First of all, the seventy-two soul-holding envoys are quite loose among themselves.
Perhaps this is a common problem among demonic sects such as the Pluto Sect, where fellow sects harm each other very seriously. This leads to the fact that even if they are in the same sect, they will be wary of each other.
Doing business must go through Taotie Pavilion instead of face to face, which means that they don't trust each other and may not even have met each other.
This is of course good news for Chu Liang who is lurking among them.
In addition, their exchange also gave Chu Liang some inspiration.
In the future, if the White Tower offers any rewards that you don't like very much, you can trade them in this way to get some items you need.
There is a small market like this for disciples to set up stalls on the top of Shu Mountain, but I heard that it is all about petty fighting and there are few serious treasures. Chu Liang has not participated in it yet, but he can go and have a look next time.
As for outside Shushan, there is the Taotie Pavilion that they just mentioned.
All Taotie Pavilions in the world belong to one of the ten sects, Taotie City in the Northern Territory.
…
Thousands of years ago, Taotie City was just an ordinary third-rate immortal gate. Historically, it was a city gate built to fight against the demon clan. It also gradually declined after the demon clan retreated.
The city is located in the desolate northern land and has no other characteristics except that it occupies a larger area.
Just when the sect was gradually declining, the new generation of city lords suddenly had a whim.
Since the place is big, he might as well take advantage of it. He began to post hero posts widely and attract people from all walks of life to come to Taotie City to do business.
That’s right, it’s investment promotion.
Attract people to come to Taotie City for trading.
Due to the special nature of practitioners, most transactions today are still conducted by barter.
Exchange whatever you need, money is usually useless.
But the biggest problem with bartering is the information gap.
Maybe what Zhang San in the southern region needs is in the hands of Li Si in the northern region, and what Li Si in the northern region needs is in the hands of Wang Wu in the east region, but they can't communicate effectively with each other.
Get what you need.
Another important reason why this information gap exists is that many cultivators dare not expose their treasures.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
If a person tells the world about what treasures he has and what he wants to exchange for, then the person waiting for him is probably not a businessman, but a robber.
In short, due to various factors, it was quite inconvenient for practitioners to trade at that time.
The emergence of Taotie City provides such a place, allowing cultivators all over the world to list everything they own and need in the city, making it clear at a glance, convenient and fast.
With the credibility of Taotie City as a guarantee, all traders' information is strictly confidential. Both parties will hand over the transaction items to Taotie City, and then deliver them to both parties after being confirmed by Taotie City.
The whole process is simple and safe. Although Taotie City will charge a high handling fee, you no longer have to worry about the problem of cheating and cheating. Most cultivators are willing to pay this money.
In fact, mainstream cultivators like Chu Liang, who came from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, are not able to personally understand this need.
Because the large sect has rich internal resources and a large number of people, there is enough circulation within the immortal sect. Just like the Changing Sword Pavilion and the four halls in Shushan, they are responsible for the circulation of this part of the resources.
And with a large sect behind you, you don’t have to worry about being hacked even if you do business with outsiders.
However, for the larger number of non-mainstream cultivators, these are all painful experiences, and the emergence of Taotie City is a blessing.
Of course, building such a reputation doesn’t happen overnight.
It took several generations and hundreds of years for Taotie City to finally become a recognized trading place for cultivators all over the world, ranking among the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
In recent years, Taotie City has also developed businesses beyond its own mountain gate.
That is to say, Taotie Pavilions were opened in major cities.
Both parties can trade anonymously at any location, and Taotie Pavilion will complete the delivery without any worries.
While carrying out these businesses, Taotie City did not forget its own heritage. It used the large amount of money earned to arm the sect, and its disciples became stronger and stronger.
Today's Taotie City disciples are all well-known as prop masters.
Highlight a rich person.
When the major sects are still competing for technical hard power, they build their own moat by establishing a reputation as a platform, doing logistics, and then using early returns to increase their strength.
From Chu Liang's point of view, the entire rise of Taotie City can only be described as professional.
…
There was nothing to say that night. Early the next morning, Chu Liang simply washed up and went next door to find Yun Chaoxian.
I heard roaring in the house, haha, this guy was shirtless and boxing in the house.
Chu Liang couldn't help but curse, you muscular men don't like to wear clothes, right?
Yesterday, after this guy stripped off his clothes in Zanglin Mountain, he came all the way to Guoshan City shirtless. He was shirtless and carrying a weapon, and was almost intercepted by the soldiers guarding the city. He first found a place to buy some clothes and wrapped the euphorbia.
Only then can we enter the city gate.
"Brother Chu, get up." When Yun Chao saw Chu Liang come in, he also stopped and said with a smile: "I was about to call you. I have tracked the location of Tian Yin Bo. Let's go and kill him right away.
Kill that guy!"
"Okay." Chu Liang smiled, paused, and suddenly asked: "Brother Yun, do you have any simple and easy martial arts skills? Can you teach me two moves?"
The strength of the Ten Tigers was suddenly increased, and the physical strength was somewhat wasted. It would be great if he could learn quick martial arts skills from Yun Chao first.
If it was a high-level skill manual, he would definitely not speak casually. But for a beginner, Yun Chaoxian probably wouldn't mind teaching him the simple moves.
"Eh?" Yun Chaoxian was also a little curious, "Brother Chu, why do you suddenly want to learn martial arts?"
"Because... yesterday I saw your brave and invincible appearance in Zanglin Mountain. I admired you so much that I inevitably have a desire to learn." Chu Liang replied sincerely.
"Hey hehe..." When Yun Chaoxian heard this, he couldn't hide his smile immediately and waved his hands and said: "Thank you, thank you. You have never practiced martial arts. It is easy to teach you to get started with both hands. What do you usually use?"
The best weapon?"
Chu Liang replied without hesitation: "Brick."
