Seeing the familiar mountain gate appear in front of him, Bai Qingzhou's heart, which had been raised all the way, finally relaxed a little, and he breathed out gently, with a smile on his face.
After he successfully bid for the [Foundation Building Pill] yesterday, he was worried that someone was trying to kill someone to seize the treasure. Based on the principle of caution, he first waited quietly in the store for a night, and when it was slightly light the next day, he immediately secretly left the city and walked all the way.
Fly back to the mountain gate at full speed.
But in the end, he was overly worried. The journey was uneventful, nothing happened, and he returned to Xuanyang Gate without any danger.
The control spirit paper landed at the mountain gate. The person guarding the mountain gate was a young monk with immature features and more than ten years old.
"Hello, Senior Brother Bai!" The young monk recognized Bai Qingzhou and immediately saluted him.
Naturally, Bai Qingzhou also knew him. He was one of the same batch of meng Li who succeeded in ascending to immortality, and his name was Shi Zhichen.
"Junior Brother Shi, is it your turn today?" Bai Qingzhou said with a smile.
Shi Zhichen nodded seriously and said, "Yes, today is already the tenth day."
"Thank you for your hard work." Bai Qingzhou cupped his hands and asked with a smile: "Do I still need to register?"
Shi Zhichen nodded seriously and said seriously: "I still want it!"
"OK."
Bai Qingzhou smiled and handed over his sect badge.
After Shi Zhichen took it, he quickly registered it in the book and quickly returned the badge to Bai Qingzhou.
"Goodbye, senior brother!"
"good!"
Returning to the familiar mountain gate, Bai Qingzhou was filled with joy and flew all the way, saying hello to many of his acquaintances.
After looking down at the several magical artifacts placed on the [Feiyun Spiritual Paper], Bai Qingzhou turned around and flew towards the herb garden.
First hand over these magical weapons and seeds belonging to Senior Sister Yao Ting to her...
The herb garden is located on the left rear of Xuanyang Gate. Bai Qingzhou has only been there once, but at that time he only went to the door to take a look and was not allowed to enter, because Senior Sister Yao generally did not let others easily enter her herb garden.
Arriving at the entrance of the herb garden, Bai Qingzhou found a girl with dark skin and a determined face standing at the door.
"Master Immortal!" The girl stepped forward and saluted.
The girl was wearing the uniform of a registered disciple, so Bai Qingzhou naturally recognized her. The girl's name was Wen Lan.
Bai Qingzhou nodded lightly and said calmly: "Go in and tell Senior Sister Yao that Bai Qingzhou wants to see you."
"Yes!" Wen Lan ran towards the garden.
Not long after, Bai Qingzhou saw the slovenly Yao Ting flying over with the [Wind Crane].
"Junior brother, have you found everything?" As soon as she came over, Yao Ting asked straight to the point.
Bai Qingzhou, who knew Yao Ting's temperament, didn't hesitate, handed her all the magical seeds placed on the spiritual paper, and replied:
"Only the [Xuanguang Hao] has not been found, the others are all here."
Yao Ting took the magic weapon, her eyes lit up, and she said happily: "These are enough!"
[Xuanguang Pickaxe] is a yellow-level medium-grade magic weapon. Bai Qingzhou searched the market several times but did not see anyone selling it. However, he slowly searched for the seeds of other magic weapons and found them all.
"Sister, I'll leave first." Bai Qingzhou tightened the [Foundation Pill] on his chest and said softly.
"Okay! Junior brother, walk slowly."
Yao Ting said hello, and then turned around without waiting for Bai Qingzhou to leave first, and flew towards the herb garden with excitement.
He looked impatient.
Bai Qingzhou smiled and shook his head, without saying much, he directly controlled the [Flying Cloud Spiritual Paper] to fly towards the Qingxin Palace.
He is now going to find the leader and hand over the [Foundation Building Pill].
Qingxin Hall is located at the highest point of Xuanyang Gate and covers a large area. It is usually the residence of the sect leader and elders, and is also an important place for discussions in the sect.
There was still a senior brother on duty in Qingxin Hall. Bai Qingzhou stepped forward and said something, then stood at the door waiting to be summoned.
Soon, I received the order to go in.
Bai Qingzhou stepped forward and walked inside.
When I came to the hall, I saw the headmaster and Elder Nie Fang sitting above.
"Disciple Bai Qingzhou has met the leader!" Bai Qingzhou immediately stepped forward and saluted.
"No need to be polite..." Li Yuyun said with a smile: "Qingzhou, if you come back at this time, you must have good news, right?"
"Exactly! My disciple successfully bid for the [Foundation Building Pill] yesterday and came back specially to offer it."
After saying that, he took out the small box of [Foundation Building Pill] from his arms and raised his hands high.
"good!"
Li Yuyun looked surprised. He waved his right hand and a stream of spiritual energy flew towards Bai Qingzhou. He slightly lifted up the small box of [Foundation Establishment Pill] in Bai Qingzhou's hand and immediately flew back to him.
Bai Qingzhou looked envious. This is the ability to release spiritual energy only in the foundation building stage...
"You did a good job. Now Fei Chen's foundation building success rate can be increased by two levels!" Li Yuyun looked excited after checking the [Foundation Building Pill].
Bai Qingzhou once again handed over the small book he had prepared and said: "This auction of the [Foundation Building Pill] cost one hundred and eighty yuan of low-grade spiritual stones, as well as the account book of Baicaotang. I also asked Elder Nie to review it."
Upon hearing this, Nie Fang on the side immediately waved his hand, and the account book in Bai Qingzhou's hand flew towards Nie Fang.
Nie Fang is mainly responsible for the management of the store. Logically speaking, Nie Fang is now Bai Qingzhou's immediate superior.
Nie Fang got the account book, glanced at it twice, and asked softly: "[Foundation Establishment Pill] used to cost about 150 spiritual stones, why is it 180 this time?"
Bai Qingzhou confessed honestly: "There is someone who competes with me and keeps raising the price, so the price is higher than usual."
Nie Fang nodded slightly and asked a few more questions about the daily affairs of the herbal shop, and Bai Qingzhou also reported them one by one.
The affairs of the herb shop are simple. The entry and exit of spiritual stones are recorded in detail in the account book, and the report is completed quickly.
"Okay, Qingzhou, you've worked hard all the way back, so go down and rest first." Li Yuyun was in a good mood and said with a smile.
"Yes..." Bai Qingzhou cupped his hands. After hesitating for a moment, he cupped his hands again and said, "But there is something I want to explain."
"Oh?" Li Yuyun glanced at Bai Qingzhou curiously, sat up straight, "Let's talk about it."
"Disciple is bold and wants to ask the sect to change our shop." Bai Qingzhou said firmly.
Hearing this, Li Yuyun and Nie Fang looked at each other with some doubts in their eyes, obviously not expecting what Bai Qingzhou said.
"Why did you suddenly have this idea?" Nie Fang asked softly.
Bai Qingzhou organized his thoughts in his mind, and then said seriously:
"When I was in Luogufang in March, I found that the business of the herb shop was extremely poor. There were often no customers for several days in a row. Baicaotang couldn't sell anything at all. I think the herbs in the door can be sent directly to the Shennong Association for trading.
There is no need for Baicaotang as a transitional station. So I think Baicaotang can be replaced by other stores for operation, which may be able to increase the income of the sect."
This was the idea that came to his mind when he saw the Shennong Association taking away the herbs that day. Since Baicaotang is only a warehouse used to transfer herbs, he can directly send the herbs to the Shennong Association's store and replace the herb store with another store.
, you can earn an extra amount of spiritual stones.
Li Yuyun nodded and agreed: "Yes, it's very good that you can notice this. The reason why we didn't change the store before was because there was a shortage of spiritual stones in the sect and there was nothing we could do... Elder Nie, can the funds in the sect support the change of stores now?
?”
Nie Fang stroked his beard, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "After the steady development of the sect in the past few years, there are already a lot of spiritual stones in the library. It is no problem to change the store, but it still depends on what store it operates. If
If it were a pill shop, the funds would still not be enough..."
"That's good." Li Yuyun turned to look at Bai Qingzhou below, and asked with a smile: "Qingzhou, you are in Luogufang March, so what store do you think is more suitable?"
Bai Qingzhou already had a draft in mind and immediately replied:
"Disciple thinks that the herb shop can be replaced with... a butcher shop!"
"No!" As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Fang immediately shouted: "How can it be replaced by a butcher's shop? What a shame!"
Elder Nie Fang's reaction shocked Bai Qingzhou. Why was he so anxious all of a sudden...
Seeing this, Li Yuyun smiled and consoled him: "Elder Nie need not be so excited. Let Bai Qingzhou explain his reasons first."
He turned around and said, "Qingzhou, tell me why you want to switch to a butcher shop."
"Yes!" Bai Qingzhou gathered his thoughts, cupped his hands and said in a deep voice:
"After observation by my disciples, there is no butcher shop in Luogufang. All monks who buy monster meat need to go to the market to buy it. In the market, monster meat is sold on the spot, which is very unhygienic.
Moreover, it is not easy to preserve the monster meat of casual cultivators, and the price needs to be reduced from time to time. I think we can open a butcher shop in the market to integrate all the monster meat of casual cultivators and sell them in one place."
Bai Qingzhou, who often goes to buy meat, naturally noticed this phenomenon. There are medicinal herb shops and spiritual rice shops in Luogufang, but there are no animal meat shops. As a result, the price of monster meat in the market often fluctuates and is not unified.
standard.
"Our Xuanyang sect is a dignified sect of the Immortal Family! How can we do the things of a casual cultivator butcher! If word spreads, it will be a joke to many sects! I don't agree with this matter!" Nie Fang refused sternly.
Hearing Nie Fang's words, Bai Qingzhou did not dare to object in words and could only remain silent.
But Li Yuyun, who was sitting above, fell into deep thought.
a long time.
After finishing his thinking, Li Yuyun asked aloud: "The price of monster meat is not much different, how can I earn spiritual stones?"
Bai Qingzhou thought for a while and replied:
"The disciples feel that after the casual cultivators return from fighting monster beasts, they still need to go out and sell monster meat every day, which is very troublesome. If they can buy all their monster meat at once, they must be willing to pay a lower price, and when we sell it
, ensure health and safety, carry out unified pricing, the price of meat is slightly higher, and one of the price differences is earned."
"How much profit does your butcher shop make? Have you calculated it?"
Bai Qingzhou thought for a moment and replied: "Disciple believes that as long as it is managed properly, the spiritual stones obtained from selling medicinal herbs will not be less."
Hearing this, Li Yuyun's eyes lit up slightly.
Nie Fang, who was standing by, saw Li Yuyun's expression and stepped forward and said, "Master, running a butcher shop is really..."
"No need to say more!" Li Yuyun said directly: "I think you can try this! You don't have to care about the opinions of other sects, the spiritual stone is the most important!"
"How can this be done! We are a sect of the Immortal Family!" Nie Fang shouted in opposition.
Seeing Nie Fang's reaction, Li Yuyun couldn't refute it directly. He paused and said comfortingly: "Elder Nie, don't worry... Let's let Qingzhou try it first. If he doesn't earn as many spiritual stones as he said,
, how about canceling this matter immediately?"
Upon hearing this, Nie Fang remained silent.
Seeing Nie Fang's acquiescence, Li Yuyun immediately said sternly to Bai Qingzhou: "Bai Qingzhou, I will give you full responsibility for this matter. I will give you a hundred low-grade spiritual stones, plus all the spiritual stones from the medicinal herbs, and you will let it go."
Go ahead and do it, and I’ll check it out in half a year. If the store is losing money, I’ll give up immediately!”
"Disciple will fulfill his mission!" Bai Qingzhou immediately beamed with joy and accepted the order.
"This is a three-party [storage bag]. There is also a charm in it, which I will give you as a tool for this matter. Remember to use it well!" Li Yuyun said calmly.
