Chapter 8 Making Money (Part 1)

Chapter 8 Making Money (Part 1)

He was a young man in his twenties. His identity plate showed that he was a Fu Dan apprentice. He had a simple and honest appearance. He asked furtively: "Is this your first time in Fu Dan Pavilion?"

Guo Twelve nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, are you okay?"

The man immediately grimaced and said, "Little brother, am I that old? Don't call me uncle, just call me big brother!" Then he added, "You are here to exchange something, right?"

Guo Twelve asked in surprise: "What are you changing? What are you doing? Are you all mysterious?" He noticed the name on the person's identity plate - Wei Xian.

Wei Xian smiled and said, "I have meat here, a total of two thousand kilograms. What can you give me in exchange for it?"

Guo Twelve was stunned for a moment and asked, "How much does one pound cost?"

Wei Xian said: "I won't sell it, just exchange it for something."

Guo Twelve said: "I know you want to change things, but your meat... at least has a measurement standard? How much does it cost per pound?"

Wei Xian said simply: "A big talisman costs a pound, but if you want to spend money to buy it, it will be more than that. At least a few silver talismans will be added."

After he finished speaking, he realized: "Hey, what is my meat... No, it's my flesh... Hey, how can you talk like a kid..." He was thinking and feeling awkward.

Zhang Dakui, who was following Guo Twelve, had his mouth wide open. He didn't know what to say. The meat that usually costs two or three small coins per pound has actually increased by forty or fifty times. That's not to mention, it's not enough to buy it with money.

It's an exaggeration to say that they can be exchanged.

Guo Twelve couldn't help but laugh and said: "Oh, I don't have anything good, haha, your meat... I'm not interested."

Zhang Dakui couldn't help but chuckle to himself, these words really didn't sound good.

Wei Xian sighed and said: "Oh, you... forget it, it's not my meat." He hung the talisman bag on his waist in disappointment and said: "You are not here to exchange food.

Then what are you doing here?"

Guo Twelve said with a smile: "I'm here to buy the Tibetan Talisman."

Wei Xian said in surprise: "No, are you here to buy a cultivation talisman at this time? Even if you plant the ingredients immediately, it will be of no use. The ingredients are just delicious and cannot be used as staple food... Uh, do you want to buy a special cultivation talisman?

?Hey, listen to me, there are indeed a lot of these things now, but they are all used in exchange for food, and no one is willing to sell them."

In fact, Guo Twelve had no money at all, and all his money was used to buy food. He whispered a few words quietly into Zhang Dakui's ear, and Zhang Dakui nodded, turned and left.

Guo Twelve said with a smile: "Brother Wei, are all people here coming to exchange food?"

Wei Xian sighed and said, "Isn't it? It's been more than a month... Most people have run out of food at home. The food distributed is not enough to eat, so they have to exchange things."

Guo Twelve asked: "Brother Wei, why do you have so much meat?"

Wei Xian felt like he was going crazy. He said, "Little brother, this is not my meat..."

Guo Twelve smiled happily: "Really?"

Wei Xian sighed and said, "Little brother, talking to you is so tiring."

Guo Twelve laughed loudly and said: "You're kidding, Brother Wei, who is selling... uh, exchange cultivation talismans?"

Wei Xian said: "There are many... who have finished eating the ingredients grown in the cultivation talisman and have no time to plant another wave. If they can exchange for staple food, they are still willing to exchange."

Guo Twelve asked: "Why doesn't anyone exchange flour?"

Wei Xian said: "Yes, but it's very little... Flour was already expensive, and now it's even more expensive."

Guo Twelve said: "Brother Wei, please get busy, I'll go take a look."

Wei Xian smiled and said, "I have nothing to do, so let's go with you."

Guo Twelve nodded indifferently and said, "Okay, let's go together."

The trading area of ​​Fudan Pavilion is not very big. It is divided into two venues, inside and outside. Most of the people who come here to trade are Fudan apprentices, there are also Talisman apprentices, and there are also a few spell apprentices like Guo Twelve who come to search for treasures. Only a few

of Fudanshi and Fushi.

Setting up a stall is also very simple. Just lay a piece of animal skin on the ground, put the things you want to sell on it, and wait for others to ask. There are also some impatient people who bring things to various stalls to exchange.

Guo Twelve searched carefully from stall to stall very patiently. He found a lot of cultivating hidden charms, and the prices were not high. They were mainly used in exchange for food. No one was willing to sell them, because now even if you have money, you can't buy food.

.

These stalls are very shabby. Some stalls only have a few pieces of talisman, and others only have a few pieces of materials. Guo Twelve squatted in front of a stall, with two palm-sized pills placed on the animal skin.

Fu. Guo Twelve asked: "Is this a cultivation hidden talisman? What is it planted for?"

The person who set up the stall was a Fudanshi. He sat lazily on the ground and said feebly: "You can only grow food, not anything else... This is a Tibetan charm specially used to grow food. It is only exchanged but not sold..."

Five hundred catties of meat, or one hundred catties of flour, will do." This guy's face was green and yellow from hunger, and his hands were still shaking slightly.

Guo Twelve said: "Five hundred kilograms of meat in exchange for two hidden talismans."

"Go and grab it! One hidden talisman is worth at least 500 talismans! Two hidden talismans can be exchanged for 900 kilograms of meat, or 180 kilograms of flour, no bargaining!"

Guo Twelve smiled slightly. He did not suffer a loss in this exchange, but if he waited a few more days, the terms of exchange would definitely be different. No one could withstand the fear of starvation. By then, maybe ten pounds of meat could be exchanged for these two implants.

Hidden Talisman. He was not in a hurry to take action. He nodded and said, "I'll take a look."

Fudanshi sighed and continued to sit and wait for someone to change. Unfortunately, almost no one is interested in cultivating hidden talismans now. It is not because cultivating hidden talismans is not good, but only people with the Talisman and Talisman professions can play this game.

People from other professions wouldn't be able to play with things even if they were given to him. Now that he can't even fill his stomach, who would be interested in playing with the Hidden Cultivation Talisman.

Originally, Guo Twelve estimated that cultivating Tibetan Talisman would be very valuable, because it was equivalent to a production area and could grow many things. However, after contacting it, he realized that although cultivating Tibetan Talismans could produce vegetable plants, the area was small and the occupation was limited.

* There are many, and the things produced are limited. Everyone here is a big-bellied man, and they are very good at eating. The things produced by cultivating Tibetan Talisman are too few, which is far from enough to eat, so the price has naturally dropped.

Wei Xian followed Guo Twelve around for a long time, but ended up changing nothing. He couldn't help but ask, "Little brother, why didn't you change anything?"

Guo Twelve said with a smile: "I have neither money nor food, how can I change it?"

Wei Xian was so angry that he stared for a long time before he said: "You...you...oh, why am I so stupid..."

Guo Twelve said: "It's not that you are stupid, but you are thinking... This kid should be easy to deceive, right, Brother Wei! It's a pity that I am a poor man, a kid much poorer than you, isn't it very

Disappointed? Hehe, oops, by the way, I also want to thank Brother Wei for staying with me for so long, thank you."

Wei Xian was said to be deceived, and he did have this idea. Generally speaking, young apprentices always have a few good things given by their masters. If they are lucky, they may be able to cheat one or two of them, which can make a lot of money.

Who knew that this child could see through his intentions at a glance. He wasn't angry either. He could deceive the best, and there would be no loss if he couldn't deceive him. It was just a bit embarrassing to be laughed at by a child.

"Nonsense! When did I lie to you?"

Guo Twelve said with a smile: "Okay, after following me for so long, you should know that I am very poor. Look... there is an apprentice over there, you go, I wish you success..."

Wei Xian smiled bitterly. Even if he sincerely wanted to deceive him, he couldn't. He sighed: "Oh, it's hard to be a good person..."

Guo Twelve laughed non-stop and said: "If Brother Wei goes to act, he must not be a good actor. He can't even lie to people."

Sure enough, Wei Xian was fooled again and said, "What? I can't lie? Do I have a liar written on my face? That means you have sharp eyes and sharp teeth... Uh, little bastard, I have been fooled by you!" He suddenly

Come to think of it, if you say you are a good actor, then you are a good liar. If you say you are a bad actor, it is even worse. You are a stupid liar. The most annoying thing is that no matter whether you are good or bad, you are a liar.

Zhang Dakui came in from outside, came to Guo Twelve, and whispered a few words. Guo Twelve nodded and said, "Uncle Zhang, come with me." He walked towards a stall. Wei Xian followed curiously.

When he went up, he didn't expect to deceive anyone, he just wanted to see what Guo Twelve, a pauper, was going to do.

Guo Twelve came to the Fudanshi who had two cultivating hidden talismans. He directly exchanged flour for them without bargaining. Then, as long as he saw them and asked about the terms of exchange, he exchanged them one by one. In a short time,

In a short time, he had obtained eight cultivation talismans, six of which were ordinary cultivation talismans, and two were cultivation talismans for cultivating elixirs.

Then, Guo Twelve stood in the middle of the trading floor and shouted loudly: "Whoever has books on cultivation, exchange them at a high price! You can also exchange cultivation talismans!"

Wei Xian stared at it dumbfounded. Only then did he realize that the little guy had been teasing him. How could he be a pauper? He was much richer than himself.

"If you want to change it, hurry up...it won't be the same price tomorrow..."

People here are relatively reserved, and few people shout in the market, but Guo Twelve is different. He knows the importance of publicity. Until he can find a more suitable means of publicity, shouting is also a way of publicity.

He looks like a child and doesn't need to care about other people's opinions.

The crisp children's voice broke the dull atmosphere in the market. Several people gathered around, and one of them said: "I have a cultivation talisman, how do you plan to exchange it?"

"Four hundred pounds of meat, or eighty pounds of flour!"

The man obviously didn't know how to bargain, so he said, "Then let me exchange for two hundred kilograms of meat and forty kilograms of flour."

Almost no one knew about Guo Twelve's transaction just now, so the price he gave did not seem cheap. He said: "Exchange, first show me what the cultivation talisman is."

The man said: "It is a cultivation talisman for planting northern birch trees."

Guo Twelve was delighted. The leaves of the Northern Betula tree were the famous Northern Betula leaves, and there was such a cultivation talisman. He said, "Bring it here and change it!"
