Zhang Dakui took the man aside to exchange, while Guo Twelve continued to shout.
A talisman came over and said, "I haven't cultivated any talismans. Can you sell me some food? I... I'll pay two big talismans for a pound of meat. What's the price?"
Guo Twelve shook his head and said: "Uncle, this is not possible. I will only exchange it and not sell it."
Everyone present knew that the price offered by the talisman was not low, but it was impossible to buy food at this price. No one was willing to exchange food for black talisman money, and the stuff was inedible.
The man sighed, took out a set of talisman books, and said, "This set of talisman books... I wonder if you want to change them? It's the handwriting of a talisman planter, and I got it by chance."
Guo Twelve knew that only a Talisman Planter could make the Talisman Planter. Of course he was interested in the Talisman Planter's handwriting, but he did not show any excitement on his face and asked calmly: "How to change it?"
The man gritted his teeth and said, "Two thousand kilograms of meat!"
Before Guo Twelve could say anything, someone next to him said in surprise: "Two thousand kilograms of meat in exchange for a set of talisman books? That's too exaggerated."
"Bullying children!"
"..."
The man blushed and knew that his price was too high. Seeing that Guo Twelve didn't speak, he couldn't hold himself back and said, "Then how much do you want to exchange for it?"
In fact, Guo Twelve was very willing in his heart, but he could not let the exchange price rise. This would cause too much harm to the people who owned food and would cause public outrage. He said: "Five hundred catties of meat, plus one hundred catties of flour."
." This number is quite large. One hundred kilograms of flour can be exchanged for one thousand kilograms of meat. Meat here is very cheap, and flour is a luxury product.
The man said: "Change!"
Guo Twelve got two more cultivating talismans, and left with Zhang Dakui satisfied.
"Uncle Zhang, how much meat and noodles do you have left on hand?"
"Eight hundred catties of meat and two hundred catties of noodles."
Zhang Dakui held several talisman bags and said: "Twelve, in a few days... the prices of meat and noodles will increase. Is it too early to change?"
Guo Twelve shook his head and said: "Don't be too greedy. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. Haha, if it weren't for the lack of food, they wouldn't give it in exchange."
Zhang Dakui asked: "Shall we go home?"
Guo Twelve smiled and said: "Don't rush back now, let's go to Grandpa Xu's house." After he came back, he had long wanted to visit Xu Zaikun, but he was busy studying and practicing, so he never had the chance. Since he arrived at Fu Shi Hall today, he would stop by.
trip.
The courtyard where Xu Zaikun lived was different from that of his master Luo Jie. It was obviously much smaller, and he did not have as many followers as his master. There were more than a dozen followers, as well as hundreds of family members, apprentices and servants.
After the announcement, a housekeeper came out to welcome him.
Xu Zaikun was very happy to see Guo Twelve and said: "Twelve, you finally came to see me! Haha, I thought you had forgotten..."
Guo Twelve said with a smile: "How can I forget, Grandpa, I am not studying very hard."
Xu Zaikun pulled him to sit down and said, "Let's eat here tonight."
Guo Twelve asked: "Grandpa, do you have enough food now?"
Xu Zaikun smiled bitterly and said: "We are all rationing now, so how can it be enough? However, don't worry, Twelve. Grandpa is a Fu Dan master. You can exchange high-grade Fu Dan for food. Don't worry, I have an apprentice to exchange it. He should be back soon."
.”
"Master, I'm back."
Xu Zaikun found that Guo Twelve's expression was very strange. He looked like he was smiling but not smiling, so he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
Guo Twelve held back his laughter and said, "No, it's okay."
Wei Xian was seen walking in happily with a bag of hidden talismans. When he saw Guo Twelve, he couldn't help but said in surprise: "Huh? Why are you here?"
Guo Twelve smiled and said: "Why can't I be here?"
Mr. Xu quit and shouted: "Wei Xian, what are you doing?"
Wei Xian trembled with fright and said with a smile: "Haha, master, my apprentice saw this little brother in the market just now, hehe, hehehe..."
Xu Zaikun asked: "You took four high-level Talisman Pills and how much food did you exchange for them?"
Wei Xian said proudly: "I exchanged two thousand kilograms of meat. Alas, if I hadn't done it quickly, I almost wouldn't have been able to exchange two thousand kilograms of meat."
The old man was startled and said: "What? Just for such a small price? Just kidding, a high-grade Talisman Pill can save a life at a critical moment. It usually costs at least two thousand large Talisman, but I may not be willing to sell it!"
Exchange for two thousand catties? This is too little..." He regarded Guo Twelve as one of his own and did not shy away from speaking at all.
Wei Xian said aggrievedly: "Master, you don't know that you can't measure it with money now. The price of this food has increased three times a day. No one is willing to sell it. You can only exchange it with things, and it is getting harder and harder to exchange. Right
Well, little brother, you know, you come and tell the master, alas, the master doesn’t believe me..."
Guo Twelve knew what Wei Xian said was true. He looked at Wei Xian and grinned. Wei Xian was so laughed that he broke into a cold sweat. Behind Xu Zaikun's back, he quietly held his hand in his hand, obviously asking for help.
Guo Twelve smiled and said: "Grandpa, I brought a lot of food here. Haha, it's specially given to grandpa." He gestured to Zhang Dakui to take out the talisman bag and said with a smile: "There are not many things, it's just a little bit of Twelve."
Mind."
Xu Zaikun said repeatedly: "Hey, that's not possible. How can I take your things? Besides, food is very scarce now. I took it... What will you do?"
Guo Twelve said: "Grandpa, I got a lot of food from the master, which is enough to eat. Haha, just think of it as my filial piety to you, accept it, otherwise I won't dare to come here in the future."
Although the gift was light, Guo Twelve's affection was heavy. The old man was deeply moved and said, "Hey, hey... I'll take it, I'll take it, good boy." He let Wei Xian take the talisman bag and said, "Wei
Xian, this is the twelfth year, you guys need to get closer and help each other in the future, you know?"
With a smile on his face, Wei Xian said diligently: "I know, master, I know!" He took the talisman bag and ran out. If Guo Twelve hadn't interrupted, today's test would have been difficult.
In the evening, Guo Twelve stayed at Xu Zaikun's house and had a sumptuous dinner, which also included two talisman dishes.
Guo Twelve always had a question in his mind. While eating, he asked: "Grandpa, there are so many people in Beifu City, where does the food come from?"
Xu Zaikun said: "Four is basically shipped in from outside. Half of the meat is raised in Beifucheng itself, and part of it is hunted. The rest is also shipped in from outside, because there are hidden talisman bags for transportation, so
There has never been a shortage of food in Beifucheng. This year's situation is special, and I believe the situation will get better soon."
Guo Twelve asked in confusion: "Grandpa, why didn't I know there was such a big breeding farm? Beifu City has a population of tens of millions, and they are all so edible. How many livestock do we need to raise?"
Xu Zaikun couldn't help but laugh, and said: "This is not difficult, you know the Beast Talisman Sect, right? The Beast Talisman Sect has a talisman that can quickly produce livestock in large quantities. However, this production method can only be used by sects.
"
Guo Twelve wondered: "Since we have this ability, why not speed up production?"
Xu Zaikun said: "This will take time to adjust. I estimate that in about ten days, the supply of meat should be open."
Guo Twelve was secretly shocked and asked: "So the flour supply is still not available?"
Xu Zaikun nodded. He was a little strange and asked: "Twelve, why are you interested in this?"
Of course Guo Twelve is interested in this, and this time he is relying on it to make money. He has hoarded a large amount of food, half of which is meat. Once the supply is opened, it will be a loss. He smiled: "It's just curiosity, haha
,Grandpa, I got a lot of good things this time."
When Xu Zaikun saw the set of Talisman Planting Master's Talisman Books, he was surprised and said: "This is the treasure of the Talisman Planting Sect!" He said solemnly: "You must keep this. It doesn't matter in the inner door. You must not let it go out.
Someone else saw it. I estimate that this set of talisman planting books was stolen, but I don’t know how the person cracked it. Maybe he was lucky and found the talisman key at that time."
Xu Zaikun gave me thousands of warnings and instructions, and his love and care was beyond words.
That night, Guo Twelve stayed at Xu Zaikun's home.
The next day, Guo Twelve returned home and immediately asked his servants to invite Aunt Lan and Aunt Xin, and said: "Aunt Lan, the meat our family has hoarded can be sold. According to the black market price, sell it as soon as possible within ten days.
As long as you keep ten days' worth, um, fifteen days' worth, if you continue to stock up on flour, the price of that stuff will go up."
Everyone was busy again. Meat was in short supply at this time, so it was sold out as soon as it was sold out. It started with two big talismans per pound, and in the end, some people were even willing to spend four big talismans to buy a pound. At the beginning,
During the big purchase, I spent a total of 7,000 talisman on meat. Now it has at least more than 100 times. I have earned nearly 1 million talisman on meat alone.
Aunt Lan and Aunt Xin couldn't believe that they had made so much money in less than two months. They were so impressed with Guo Twelve.
Guo Twelve had already arrived at his master Luo Jie's home at this time.
Luo Jie sat cross-legged on the floor leisurely. There was a small low table in front of him, with several kinds of talisman food and a glass of old wine on it. He was drinking wine and eating talisman food, and his expression seemed relaxed and happy. When he saw
Guo Twelve came in and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I know the master has delicious food? Come, sit down, someone comes, and set out a pair of bowls and chopsticks. Twelve, let's have a drink with the master."
Guo Twelve did not refuse, sat down with a smile, and asked: "Master, what are you so happy about?"
Luo Jie said: "In a few days, you can sell the meat. There is too much, and your family will not be able to eat it all."
Guo Twelve couldn't help but laugh, and said: "Master, before I came here, I asked Aunt Lan to help me sell it. It will probably take a few days to sell out."
Luo Jie took a sip of the old wine and sighed: "You kid...hey, you are amazing. Have you sold the flour?"
Guo Twelve said: "Four...keep it first."
Luo Jie couldn't help but touched Guo Twelve's head and said: "Sometimes I wonder, what is growing in your child's head? It doesn't look like a child. This time, the master has taken advantage of you.
I made a lot of money, good, good...haha."
Rollo suddenly walked in and said: "I'm back!"
Luo Jie's face suddenly became serious and he shouted: "You still know how to come back?"
