"Being able to sell mid-grade talismans, even if he didn't make them himself, there must be a talisman maker behind him that he can contact. By the way, he can investigate the identity of the other person and confirm whether the talisman maker is himself."
"Okay, second uncle, I will give you the news after the investigation!"
After that, Ji Huan began to allocate manpower and got busy...
In addition to Ji's grocery store, two other stores in Fangshi also received the news and took similar actions to Ji's.
…………
Time passed quickly, and the night passed quickly. When the stall was closed at dawn, Hou Jiuming had a few more spiritual stones on his body.
It has to be said that these monks are no different from ordinary people.
After closing the stall, Hou Jiuming planned to take a good rest after going back.
Although I slept all day yesterday, I still didn't feel at my best.
Think about it, after all, after five days and five nights, you can't recover by sleeping in one day.
Together with He Yinong, we walked towards the exit of Fangshi,
But as soon as he got halfway, he was stopped by someone.
It was not anyone else who stopped him, but Ji Huan, whom he had met once before.
I saw that he waited until the two of them arrived, first nodded to He Yinong as a greeting, and then after receiving a smile from He Yinong, he turned to Hou Jiuming and clasped his fists.
"Fellow Daoist Hou, long time no see!"
"Fellow Daoist Ji!" He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. Hou Jiuming also cupped his fists in greeting, but he was very clear about his purpose.
"The two of them only had a little interaction at the beginning. After that, even if they met, they were just acquaintances. Now, the other party greets them in this way. It is obvious that they are here for the matter of the talisman."
Seeing that Hou Jiuming recognized him, Ji Huan's smile became even wider, and then he spoke.
"Fellow Taoist Hou, it's a pity that I didn't have a good chat with you over wine after we had to say goodbye last time. I just have free time today. I wonder if I'm lucky enough to be able to sing and drink with you over wine?"
Hou Jiuming: “…………”
Regarding the words and deeds of a scholar like Ji Huan, Hou Jiuming's brows twitched, and he quickly thought about how to respond in an elegant and polite manner.
After a few breaths, Hou Jiuming cursed mmp in his heart and said.
"Of course, Fellow Daoist Ji invites you!"
On the other side, He Yinong, who had been standing aside, saw Ji Huan inviting Hou Jiuming, so he wisely said, "Fellow Daoist Hou, Fellow Daoist Ji, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first!"
Hearing him speak, Hou Jiuming turned around and said, "Fellow Daoist He, please walk slowly!"
As for Ji Huan, he nodded to him as he did at the beginning, maintaining his identity.
Seeing that neither of them said anything to persuade them to stay, He Yinong had an awkward smile on his face. Fortunately, he was an experienced stall owner, so he recovered in an instant and left with a smile on his face.
After he left, Hou Jiuming and the two went to a Juxian Tower in Fang City.
This restaurant can be opened within the city, so it is certainly not comparable to other restaurants in the world.
The food inside all contains spiritual energy and is helpful for cultivation.
For example, Ji Huan ordered three dishes and one soup, steamed fish, silver lotus root, white-cut red bird meat, and green dragon pouring the sea!
The streamer fish is not an ordinary fish, but a spiritual fish in the Hua River. It is as fast as a stream of light.
Of course, this is just a description. The real speed is not that fast, but it is not something ordinary people can capture.
You must be a monk and have a specific magical weapon.
In Huajiangfang City, there are many monks who earn spiritual stones by catching streamer fish.
A living one is more valuable than a medium-grade talisman, worth ten spiritual stones.
Even if it is dead, it is still valuable and requires five spiritual stones.
The silver lotus root is a specialty of the Li family of Qianyu Country.
Only the Li family knows where it grows. Not only does it increase cultivation, but the lotus seeds it produces are also very precious medicinal materials.
As for the red-feathered finch, it is a product of the Luoyue Mountains. There are very many of them. You can find them as long as you look carefully.
However, unlike the imagined plain-cut chicken, this thing is only about the size of a fist.
And the last thing is the Qinglongduhai, which is the soup made from some demonic snake meat and bones.
As for why it is called Qinglong Tuhai, it should be a green snake demon.
After the two of them sat down, they started tasting and chatting.
Not to mention, these dishes taste really delicious and are worthy of the high price.
Of course, the abundant aura also echoes its propaganda.
Just a small mouthful of the Streamer Fish can make him stronger than the seven or eight days he meditated in Linjiang City.
After enjoying the meal, it directly increased the mana equivalent to half a year of hard work behind closed doors.
Such a powerful effect made Hou Jiuming want to eat more if he had the chance in the future.
After having enough tea and food, Ji thought about it for a while and then started talking about business.
"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Hou, in addition to his amazing cultivation, is also a master of talisman making. I really admire him!"
Hou Jiuming said modestly.
"Fellow Taoist, I'm very grateful. I just put in a little more effort than others!"
When Ji Huan heard what he said, there was an expression of uncertainty on his face.
"Fellow Taoist is so humble. If hard work had worked, the world would have been filled with gods and immortals." Regarding Hou Jiuming's words, Ji Huan shook his head in his heart.
In the world of cultivation, although hard work is useful, most of it still depends on talent.
If you don't have talent, no matter how hard you work, you may not be able to achieve much even if you delve into drawing talismans every day.
Just like another talisman seller in Huajiangfang City.
He is already in his fifties and sixties before he can reach the stage where he can draw middle-grade talismans.
Moreover, the success rate is still pitifully low.
Hou Jiuming smiled and did not respond to Ji Huan's words. After all, the other party was telling the truth.
While Ji was finishing talking about this topic, he thought of himself again, and instantly lost interest in talking about it, so after being silent for a while, he got straight to the point.
"Fellow Daoist Hou, to be honest, besides catching up with you today, I have another thing to talk about!"
"Fellow Daoist Ji, please tell me!" Hou Jiuming was not surprised that Ji was still involved. He had already guessed it from the beginning, and even had some guesses about what the other party wanted to do.
It was just that he was interested in his ability to make talismans and wanted to invite him to join the Ji family.
"Fellow Daoist Hou is so happy. Let me tell you straight. This time, I am representing the Ji family to invite you to join the Ji family and become a foreign affairs elder." After saying this, he observed Hou Jiuming's expression.
Seeing that there was no change in his face, he continued, "As long as fellow Taoists join us, our Ji family is willing to provide fifty spiritual stones, five pills for the late stage of Qi training, and a top-grade defensive weapon every month.
.”
These things were all given after asking his second uncle before coming here.
Of course, the premise is that Hou Jiuming himself is a charm maker.
