Chapter 31 Under the Knife
Chen Hai asked Zhou Jingyuan to cooperate and spread the armor of the Pharmacist Garden into Mengyi City. If three or five craftsmen were purely hired to create excellent armor for sale, it would be no profit in the short term.
And they invested 2,000 points of sect's achievements at once, equivalent to 20 million yuan in Dayan coins. It is nothing in the Taiwei Sect, but in the secular society of Mengyi City, it is also a big number; Chen Hai and others naturally would not be willing to make small fuss in Mengyi City, and they valued more about how to make good use of Taoist resources.
Not only the instrument making academy in the Taoist court, dozens of craftsmen and a large number of primary Taoist soldiers were used as errand apprentices, under the leadership of several deacons in the Piling Realm, a batch of excellent soldiers and armor can be created every year, but also a large number of soldiers and armor can be transferred from other Taoist courts and even the inner gates of the Shangqi Peak for disciples to exchange for the achievements of the sect.
Those high-level Xuan soldiers and treasure armors, as well as magic weapons, spiritual swords, and magic weapons that can only be truly exerted by the Spirit-Bizing Realm disciples, are extremely expensive, but ordinary weapons and armor are very cheap.
This is mainly the Taoist soldiers recruited by the Taoist Academy every year, mainly from the clan clan clans. Even the retainers of the clan clans will not lack ordinary military armor; and the Taoist Academy's equipment can be built in batches every year, mainly ordinary military armor.
After all, the craftsmen who mainly use Xuanyi disciples have only the ability to build ordinary weapons and do not have the ability to refine magic weapons...
Over the years, the Taoist Courtyard's instrument manufacturing institute has accumulated a large number of excellent soldiers and armor, but there is no way to escape.
Chen Hai wanted to use the sect's achievements to replace these excellent soldiers and armor from the Taoist court and get them to the Pharmacist Garden Shop for transformation and upgrading. In addition to infiltrating trace amounts of genius treasures such as cold-patterned iron, red marrow copper and other genius treasures into these soldiers and greatly improve the quality of these soldiers and armor, he also used dragon blood wood, red sandalwood, advanced animal skins, gold, silver and gems to perfectly modify these soldiers and armor.
At this time, these weapons and armor were made old through special treatment techniques, making them look ancient and simplified, with extraordinary appearance, stamped with the stamp of the "Pharmaceutical Garden Warrior Shop" and then taken to the shop facing the street for sale.
Mengyi City is the support center of the Tielu Ridge defense line. The Mansion of the Protector General in Tielui Camp is located in Mengyi City. Most of the civil servants and generals in Tielui Camp have their families in Mengyi City. In addition, Mengyi City is a major city on the main passage of Jin and Yan prefectures. There are endless merchants and travelers traveling to explore the secrets of the desert and sea. The children of the sect and scattered cultivators who have experienced enough experience in Mengyi are in Mengyi, and multiple factors have created the prosperity of Mengyi City.
Mengyi City is also full of shops, and there are many soldier shops distributed throughout Mengyi City. The Soldier Shop of the Pharmacist Garden wants to gain a foothold in Mengyi City. Ge Tong and Shen Kun both just try it out. However, after one and a half months of careful preparation, the Soldier Shop of the Pharmacist Garden launched the first batch of twenty exquisite soldier armors that had been renovated and upgraded, but was snatched away by passing business travelers in less than three days.
The Pharmacist Garden Shop was officially opened for three days, and Chen Hai, Ge Tong, Zhou Jingyuan and Shen Kun all rushed over to take charge.
Sitting in the backyard of the military armor shop, Shen Kun picked up a cold iron sword in his hand and praised it, saying, "If I don't know your tricks, I will be moved when I see this sword..."
This cold iron sword is actually an iron sword made of high-quality fine iron. The cold iron seeped into it is extremely sparse. However, after the cold iron seeped into it in the early stage, Chen Hai and Zhou Jingyuan inserted these swords into wooden boxes filled with wisteria grass grey, mist and rain tea residue, paste after burning green granite and mixed black iron sand. They soaked in Lingquan water for a whole month, and then took it out and forged, and a small amount of red marrow copper seeped into it.
This is the improved treatment method after Chen Hai and Zhou Jingyuan's exchange, which makes this cold iron sword look comparable to the top-class Xuan soldiers who are rare in a century.
Only twelve points of sect achievements can be exchanged for such a fine iron sword from the Taoist Academy. However, after some treatment, the Yaoyuan Division's Military Armor Shop sold to the public with Dayan coins equivalent to 60 points of sect achievements. The first batch of ten fine iron swords were launched, and they were all snatched by a wealthy escort agency.
Ge Tong is an honest man, knowing the mystery behind it, and said with some concern: "If the other party sees through the mystery, it will be more troublesome to come to the door."
Chen Hai was holding a wooden carving carved to a bottle that had not yet been fully formed. He laughed and said:
"Which of the top Xuan soldiers in the Taoist temple has less than 200 points in the sect's achievements? If outsiders want to exchange for Taoist disciples, they have to add a pass fee. Although the cold iron swords we sell are not as good as the top Xuan soldiers, they have been carefully crafted by many senior craftsmen, and the true quality is not bad. Besides, the things sold by our Pharmacist Garden Shop do not have false and exaggerated publicity. Each knife and every armor are clearly marked in the shop. If you are willing to fish, how can they have the face to come to cause trouble?"
Shen Kun had never thought that the Soldiers in the Medicine and Armor Store would have a net profit of nearly 300 points of sect achievements after deducting the dividends, material fees and filial piety to all parties within just one and a half months.
Although Shen Kun only accounts for 10% of the dividends in the military armor shop, even if it is only this, it is better than what he earns from working in Tieliu Camp.
Although Shen Kun is not a greedy person, he was also happy to think that the dividends in the future of the War Armor Shop in the Medicine God Garden were enough to support his and his only son Shen Xiu's cultivation in the Taoist temple.
Seeing Chen Hai coming to Mengyi City these days, he was holding a carving knife in his hand at any time and carving the small wooden carving three or four inches tall and short, Shen Kun asked after a question: "I see Junior Brother Yao fiddling with a carving knife all day long. Could it be that the wood carving should be sold in the armor shop..."
"It's not impossible to sell this woodcut in a soldier shop, but this woodcut is priced at 1,000 points for sale in the sect. I wonder how many people would be willing to bite and fish?" Chen Hai smiled.
At first hearing Chen Hai say this, Shen Kun was shocked and straightened his figure and took the woodcut from Chen Hai, looking carefully...
This three or four inches tall wood carving of the portrait of the bottle has been generally formed under Chen Hai's carving knife. Under Shen Kun's eyes, he felt a kind of turbulent flow and leaping in the bow and fish, which almost overflowed from the wood carving. Shen Kun was shocked and said in shock: "Mr. Yao can already integrate the true meaning of martial arts knives into this wood carving?"
"It's almost time to get angry." Chen Hai said with a smile.
Chen Hai learned carving since he was a child. After entering the cultural circle, he worked hard on jade carving. He was in prison for two months and his health was too great and needed time to adjust. He could not practice at high intensity, nor could he personally practice and teach Ge Tong the secret form of fish into dragon. He thought about whether he could carve the four secret form of martial arts involved in fish into dragon into four wooden carvings of portraits.
Although Chen Hai's soul consciousness can smoothly adjust the secret martial arts figure from the ancestral orifice of the puppet clone, at the beginning, he looked at the secret martial arts figures one by one, carving on the old poplar wood that had grown for a hundred years. He was extremely awkward and seemed to have a barrier in his heart, which made him unable to find the feeling of being as free as if he had a god before.
At first, Chen Hai thought that he had changed Yao Xing's body and was born with his hands, but instead carved other woodcuts, the feeling in his hands was back.
It was only then that Chen Hai confirmed that it was not easy for him to integrate the true meaning of the magical and mysterious form of martial arts into woodcuts, but if he could cross this threshold, his understanding of the secret form of martial arts would definitely reach a higher level.
As long as he made an idea, he didn't have to worry about anything. The routine practice stopped again. Before he came to recuperate, Chen Hai had nothing to do and kept playing with the carving knife in his hands all day long.
Although Chen Hai had already taught the fish into dragon to Ge Tong, he was fascinated by carving and even regarded it as a practice. Even though the military shop was officially opened, he and Ge Tong, Zhou Jingyuan, and Shen Kun all went to Mengyi City, and he would still carve the knife.
It was also these days that Chen Hai found some feeling under his sword, carving the small figure wood to a certain extent, but his spirit and form were not exactly the same as the secret martial arts figure printed by the puppet clone's sea of consciousness.
If this woodcut is really complete, it is equivalent to a basic mysterious technique. It is sold in the military armor shop and is sold for 1,000 points in the sect's achievements. It is really not considered a loss at all, but you also need to meet someone who really knows the goods to donate generously.
Chen Hai and the others were chatting in the backyard, excited about the successful start of the military shop in the past three days. Suddenly, a noise came from the front yard.
Chen Hai and the others calmed down and listened to it, and then they realized why the quarrel was in the front yard.
Chen Hai and his team launched the first batch of 20 carefully crafted armor, which were swept away by past business travelers and some were not available in the future. There were still a few samples of armor left. Although the price was not increased, they were only placed in the shop for display and were no longer sold to the public until the new supply was supplied.
But the customer can't wait for two months. He would rather raise the price than take away the two samples he liked today.
Chen Hai and his friends opened a pharmacy division's military armor shop, not just doing a one-time business. The shopkeeper who was responsible for responding to the customers was trying to resist the customers' unreasonable requests.
There were men and women in the group of guests. Chen Hai listened to the familiar voice and walked to the front yard with Zhou Jingyuan. He looked over and saw Chen Qing kicking him to Tieluling Taoist Courtyard, standing in the shop with a group of young men and women in bright clothes.
One of the young men in the brocade wanted to buy two swords on the counter, but they probably didn't expect to be rejected and were furious at the shopkeeper behind the counter.
Except for Su Ziling standing beside Chen Qing, Zhao Shan and Qian Wenyi's two families were standing outside the shop door, and they were not even qualified to walk into the shop with these men and women.
The shopkeeper didn't know how to deal with these arrogant men and women. Seeing Chen Hai and Zhou Jingyuan showing their faces, he pushed the matter to them and said to the young man in Jinyi who was angry with Yu: "The rules are set by our boss, and the old man can't make the decision. Now that the two bosses of my store are here, let's ask the young master to discuss with our boss..."
