This is an account book obtained from the "Rongli Trading Company" store. The reason why it got into Zheng Keyi's hands is because her "little sister" Tang Xiuning took over the accounts for a new time and could not figure out some issues in handling the accounts.
I didn't dare to ask the strict elders, so I took it out secretly and asked Zheng Keyi, who had run a flower shop and had some experience in handling accounts.
After Zheng Keyi gave some advice, the little girl Tang Xiuning already knew that she had a good understanding in this area, but sometimes she just liked to get into trouble. After sending away the little sister who was in a happy mood, Zheng Keyi went out and visited four or five houses.
After leaving the shop, he turned back to the inner hall and carefully thought about the clues he had discovered.
"Rongli Trading Company" sells medicinal herbs and elixirs, which are not of high quality and are basically used by low-level monks of the spiritual and mystical levels. However, the quantity is not small, and it is a cheap shop here, which usually has a large customer flow.
Judging from the accounts, the price of medicinal herbs has been basically stable since the middle of last month, but the price of elixirs has increased by 20%. There is no earth fire in Dayi County, and there are few alchemy monks. Most of these elixirs come from Yufeng Sect.
Since the trade routes became unblocked, elixirs have flowed in in large quantities, and the prices have been steady and declining. Just now she went out to visit a few shops and found that except for the "Longxing Trading Company" which dealt in mid-to-high-end elixirs, the listings of various other firms
The prices have all increased slightly. The increase in the price of elixirs can only mean that some people are buying them in large quantities.
Who is doing this?
This matter must be reported to the leader Jiang Feng, so that the personnel of the Mirror Division can be used to find out the mystery behind the matter as soon as possible. However, the leader does not seem to have returned yet, and it is not known whether he has left Stormrage Canyon.
Return safely.
She stood up, burned three pillars of incense, and prayed silently in her heart.

Chixiamen, Huiyao City.
Zeng Baoxian grabbed the storage bag that his cousin Zeng Baojun threw to him, carefully checked all the items inside, then put everything back, pushed it aside, and looked at Zeng Baojun quietly.
"Did you try your best?"
"There's no way to save him."
Zeng Baojun spread his hands and said, "At that time, he was isolated by a crystal screen, and he had been hit by Yuan Chu's Dao Yan beforehand. I only got rid of Dao Yan by killing Li Xianshen of Yufeng Sect. I didn't expect that the old thief of Yuan Chu had such a skill.
The Zeng family doesn’t have the ability to speak in this way, right? It’s quite interesting.”
"There was."
Zeng Baoxian pursed his lips. He was a little disappointed that Zeng Baojun failed to rescue Cui Yinghuan, the secret agent who had been lurking in Li Zong for many years. "The Cui family has been our Chixia Sect's ally for many years. Only Dugu and I know this. Now you also know it."
, must not leak it out, I will find someone to find a way to return this storage bag, are there any other relics?"
"No, his body has been corrupted, and he will probably turn into a zombie soon, otherwise I will take him out." Zeng Baojun told the truth, then curled his lips and said lazily, "What's the use of this ally?
Cui Yinghuan is just a Xuan-level monk and a coward."
"It's not important. At least they still have money. Did you see that 'Sacred Wood and Thunder Talisman'? It's actually a fifth-level talisman. Neither you nor I can easily come up with a talisman of this quality?" Zeng Baoxian rubbed his forehead with both hands.
After a moment, he said frankly, "Even if we are such a coward Xuan-level, if we can have a hundred people, Chixiamen will be able to unify the seven alliances, it will be just around the corner." Seeing Zeng Baojun's lack of interest, he added, "You do it for me
Guard the sect for ten days."
"Okay, I will wait for you to come back to decide on important matters."
"You still don't ask why?"
Zeng Baoxian raised his head and looked at him expectantly. He really couldn't stand the other person's laziness and lack of fighting spirit, but there was nothing he could do about it. Zeng Baojun was the one with the highest cultivation level in the Chixia Sect besides him, and he was also his own.
Cousin, besides Dugu, the most trusted person.
"Knowing more will only cause trouble." Zeng Baojun stood up, "That's it." He was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Jiang Feng, the head of the Qianshan Sect, seems to have some means of escape. I guess
He did not die in the valley."
"I will send someone to investigate, just hold everyone in the sect steady for me." Zeng Baoxian reached for the folding fan in front of him and slowly opened it, "He is becoming more and more troublesome."
Zeng Baojun did not stay any longer and left silently. Peace was restored in the secret room. Zeng Baoxian was the only one sitting there meditating until a man in black robes hurried in from the secret door. It was Dugu.
"Some things have been found out about the Lingcong Chamber of Commerce. The people behind them are probably the Huati Sect. In addition, the Tianli Sect may also be among them."
"The Huadi Sect is a sect from outside the territory. Do you want to intervene even though they are separated by a sea of rocks?" Zeng Baoxian rolled his eyes and thought for a moment, "This may be understandable, but doesn't the Tianli Sect usually hate the demon clan the most?"
"No," he quickly rejected himself, "Hanshan Sect is an exception, and it is normal to have another Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce. By the way, you said that the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce had a conflict with Jiang Feng, right?"
"That's right, right on our official road. He should have killed a prefecture-level monk. Judging from the things collected at the scene, it should be Mo Qiuquan, one of the eight guardians of the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce."
"Interesting, Zangzhuo is pretty good. I also underestimated the people under him. None of the death-wanderers sent to Qianshan Sect to cause trouble came back, which surprised me. Now Qianshan Sect is entangled with Lingcong Chamber of Commerce again.
, created Beimu County, obviously aimed at us. What do you think?"
"Expose the matter about Mo Qiuquan. Intelligence shows that among the eight guardians, there is a mysterious monk named 'Hai', who has a brotherhood with Mo Qiuquan. If he knows that Jiang Feng is the murderer, he will definitely find him
Trouble." Mobile version::
"That's very good. It would be great if we could get rid of Jiang Feng with the help of others. Even if we are just looking for trouble, I believe that there will be some unpleasant things in the cooperation between the two of them. Now that the Seven Alliance war has stopped, the canyon
They won't hide their concern, so they can only use these methods. If they want to cause trouble, they have to wait for Biyun Sect to take action. I don't believe that even if someone among the 'Nine Old Men' can say a word for them, can they say it again? "
"They are recruiting casual cultivators and preparing supplies at a very fast pace. Even the number of pills in our territory has increased by 10%."
"If you don't do something, you won't die. We just need to be prepared. I guess the target is not us. Send people to monitor the flow of bulk materials. Once there is a large-scale increase, it is time for them to take action."
"yes!"
"Go to Yuanqiao Town in person to supervise the secret matter, and remember to keep it confidential. Do not cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce that you are not familiar with. No one, no matter who is a relative of the sect, can come back before Biyun Sect takes action.
.Liu Zhengchun died in the canyon, and now the sect is in turmoil. I don’t want some people to take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble."
"yes!"
"I want to go to Qi in person and come back in ten days."

Lizong, Dongbo City.
Chu Yiming, who had just left the city and led his convoy and entourage to Lingdi, encountered an obstacle.
"Sixth Young Master, it is the busy mining season in Lingdi. You should not go to inspect, so as not to delay the construction period." The person who blocked it was Cheng You'an, the manager of Lingdi in Dongbo City. It is said that he has some connections with the head of the Zhu family. Although
He had some background, but his attitude was respectful and his etiquette was in place. He looked like a well-behaved subordinate, but his words still meant to persuade him to quit.
"Oh? It won't be that troublesome. I just took a look and handed over the matter. When my second brother asks, I can have an explanation."
"This is easy to handle. I will send people to deliver all the details that the Sixth Young Master and the Second Young Master may ask about. If you have any questions, you can ask them again. I will write a detailed report at that time. In this way
It’s much safer. It won’t hinder your cultivation and you can run your errands safely. What do you think?”
"Is there really no need to see it?"
"It's really unnecessary. The mine is dirty and messy. In order to rush to work, many places have not been taken care of. The Sixth Young Master has just recovered, so he should go back to rest. If he is injured, the younger ones will be blamed."
"That's fine, that's fine. Brothers, just do your hard work. I'll wait for the good news in my house."
Chu Yiming knew that he couldn't force himself at this time. The manager, Cheng You'an, should also be in the mysterious Huang Lao's camp. Rushing to explore would indeed embarrass both parties, and might even lead to death. The key question
The reason is that although I have a position and my name is justified, my spiritual level cultivation is still inappropriate after all.
Just don't touch it for the time being. The other party's answer is enough to prove that there is something wrong with the spiritual land of Dongbo City. Next, you only need to find a way to find out the truth secretly.
"Come on, let's go back to Dongbo City to rest. I'll be in charge and call a few capable brothers. I'll treat you today!"
"yes!"
The smile on the face of the manager Cheng You'an became even brighter. He turned around and said a few words to the several employees behind him, and then brought a few people to Chu Yiming's motorcade. They talked and laughed all the way without mentioning the matter of exploring the spiritual land.
But Chu Yiming already had another idea in mind. Judging from the periphery of the spiritual land, this second-level spiritual land is only twenty miles in radius. It is not large in scope and is buried deep underground. If hidden sentries can be placed on the periphery,
Carefully investigate the flow of materials around here, and it doesn't seem to be difficult to find some problems.
He quickly made up his mind to break the situation from this angle.

Qianshan Sect, Beimu County.
Qiu Zhenzhen dragged her tired body back to the simple inn late at night. In one day, she not only met with Liu Hezhao, the temporarily stationed steward of the Lingcong Chamber of Commerce, but also summoned Liu Heiyu, the ordinary steward here?
Watering? Raising father stride? Ying?? ㄔ Jiao Chen? Ni Jiangjiang crawling sun fly larvae ゲ樘 stirring the ship ring?? Jumping research さ卮t Le Ji Niu? 溆19 Niu? Qiaoqiao Sang?? Feet silly Mu Huan
The Chixia Sect is here, perfectly isolating the other three sects from the Qianshan Sect. Therefore, the passage from Beimu County to the other three sects is actually controlled by the Chixia Sect. Of course, if you go all the way south,
You can enter the Jincheng Sect from other market towns, and you can enter the Hanshan Sect by heading west. Apart from the need to cross mountains and ridges, there are no actual obstacles, but medium-sized or above caravans cannot pass.
In other words, supplies going east from here must pass through the Chixia Gate. This is a natural disadvantage. She believes that the head Jiang Feng will not be unaware of this, but from the cooperation terms signed by the Qianshan Sect and the Linglong Chamber of Commerce
It seems that these issues do not need to be worried by the Qianshan Sect. Because the shops here, except for common goods, are all taken care of by the Linglong Chamber of Commerce.
Speaking of mundane materials, Qiu Zhenzhen, who is quite knowledgeable about money, discovered a business opportunity.
This is the "Huang Pi Cao Guo", an ordinary mundane material that is often used for cooking meat. Of course, monks also need it. Cultivators also have the desire to speak, but senior monks will have higher pursuits.
, the demand for such things that are close to mundane quality will be greatly reduced.
"Huang Pi Cao Guo" is produced in the beach land, and there are two main producing areas: one is called "Li Cao", which is mainly produced in the Li family of the West Sea, sandwiched between Lizong and Yefan countries, and adjacent to the Zhen family in Nanling
The second one is "Qi Cao", which is produced on the east coast of the Qi Empire. The two producing areas account for almost 90% of the output of Hokuriku grass fruits, and they are of the best quality.
The "yellow-skinned grass fruit" of the Qianshan Sect is mainly "Li Cao", which arrived via Lizong. After the trade route was opened in Dayi County, the price dropped a lot. Now it is the time when Yefan State is at war with Wei State, and Yefan State is on the verge of war.
In order to exchange for more materials, the Xihai Li family in China increased the output of various materials, including "Huang Pi Cao Guo", which caused the price of "Li Cao" to fall again.
The "Yellow Skin Grass Fruit" of Chixia Sect is mainly "Qi Cao", which is sold to various sects of the Seven Alliance through the Ancient Sword Sect and the Biyun Sect. After the Seven Alliance War, the Biyun Sect and the Ancient Sword Sect increased their number.
The proportion of commercial taxes has been reduced, so all materials have slightly increased. The price of "Qi Cao" in Chixia Sect is therefore 10% higher than that of Qianshan Sect.
Although this percentage is not much, it is enough to make Qiu Zhenzhen pay attention. Although the transaction is not settled with spiritual stones, but with ordinary gold and silver, in the ordinary world, the two are often interchangeable, but the exchange price occasionally changes.
There is a little floating.
This is enough. If we can monopolize the "Yellow Fur Fruit" transaction, even if only 5% of the price difference can be obtained by the Qianshan Sect, it will eventually be enough to exchange for a lot of spiritual stones. In the profit of the monks' supplies
, when all of them are taken away by the Lingcong Merchant Guild, only a few mundane items that serve as the pillars of income can support the existence of the Asan Mountain Sect in Beimu County, instead of completely relying on the continuous investment within the sect. This point, in the Asan Mountain Sect,
After staying for more than a month, she has already seen through it.
I hope that the war between Wei and Yefan will never end. Of course, even if the war ends, the sects approaching in the short term will not relax their vigilance and will continue to exchange materials for hard currency spiritual stones.
However, the size of a "yellow-skinned grass fruit" is obviously not enough. She plans to go to further places tomorrow to investigate and look for more opportunities.
Once the flow of materials is accumulated, Beimu County's future is still promising.
It would be good if she could take down the guarding position because of this. She was vaguely looking forward to it. She only hoped that she would have enough chips in her hand to trade before Jiang Feng came back.
Plus myself, that should be enough, right? She smiled and couldn't help but pull back her wavy hair.

Is it cloudy now?
It seems like it will rain all day.
After one night, Jiang Feng, who was repairing in Pujiang Town, looked at the sky full of dark clouds and the bright red morning glow. After thinking for a moment, he changed his plan to go west immediately today. He planned to wait until the afternoon. If it rained and showed no signs of stopping, tonight
He took advantage of the darkness and went to Yuanqiao Town to investigate. Chixiamen must be up to something. This was something he extremely suspected. If he detected it earlier, he might be able to avoid being passive and even seize some opportunities.
When nothing happened, he re-entered the inner room, played the insulation note, and took out the cracked ancient treasure, the Tower of Eternity.
