Chapter 149 Gray Robe Enters the World
The next day, Xu Qing went to the place where the token was. There was a small merchant ship there. The items inside were acceptable. Although they were not particularly valuable, they were of some value. The most important thing was that Xu Qing saw a bunch of medicinal materials inside.
According to the careful reply of the disciple who managed this place, Xu Qing knew that no one had come to pick up the ship for two months. So Xu Qing put away the medicinal materials, called his informant to deal with the merchant ship, and asked about the opening of the port.
things.
"Master, I have learned everything about the opening of the port and am about to report to you."
"The newly opened port is divided into internal and external ports, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The internal benefits are not very large, but it is convenient for the owner to establish a network of disciples under the mountain."
"As for the external benefits, the benefits are huge, but this requires the presence of many departments, such as water diversion, dispatching, transportation, etc. But once it is built, even if it is just a simple port, with the flow of merchant ships, the benefits will be amazing, and it will also attract shops to settle in
, this is another benefit.”
The informant spoke in a low voice. She did not dare to slack off at all regarding the task assigned to her by Xu Qing. She had spent the past two months constantly investigating and researching, and even spent some spiritual coins to buy a lot of information.
So after Xu Qing inquired, she didn't think about it for too long, and told everything about opening a new port. "However, the project is huge. Even for the simplest port, the initial infrastructure will require at least three million spiritual stones. If it is combined with
All shops and other facilities have been built, with a total investment of more than 10 million, and there is no cap on the amount depending on demand." When Xu Qing heard this, his expression seemed to be like this, but secretly he was shocked. He thought he was now rich.
Money, after all, the total amount of spiritual stones and the like in the storage bag of the Sea Corpse Clan is hundreds of thousands.
But hearing the informant's words at this moment, Xu Qing could only remain silent. "But the ultimate benefit is also extremely terrifying. Our Qixuetong's harbor has limited throughput. During this period, I observed the boats coming and going, and Qixuetong's boats came every day."
30% of them have to queue outside before entering.
"Once our new port is opened, there will be no shortage of merchant ships berthing and coming and going. Master, after comparing it with other ports, I secretly calculated that our actual total investment is about three million spirit stones, and we can use the proceeds in the future
Come and build again slowly.
"If everything goes well, we will be able to break even in about two years at most. After that, we will be able to pay back the capital within one year of the third year. The subsequent annual income should be around three million spirit stones."
"In addition, I have also heard from other seniors who are building foundations and opening up ports. Very few of them fully invest themselves. They usually start with multiple people. Therefore, if the master has someone around him who is willing, they can join in, but it seems that they must be seniors building foundations.
.”
"In addition, many Zongmen's banks are also keen on this, but I heard that Zongmen has many restrictions on this, so not many ports have their shares. Xu Qing pondered.
The opening of the port was originally because he felt that the quota should not be wasted and once it was built, he would not need to do anything and would earn such a large amount of extra income every year, so he asked his informant to inquire.
But now that I heard it, Xu Qing was moved, but it was too expensive, and there were obviously a lot of troubles involved. In addition, investing so many spirit stones would tie him too deeply to the Seven-Blooded Child, which might
Qing was a little hesitant, and he suddenly understood why many foundation-building monks did not choose to open a port. On the one hand, it required energy to deepen the bond, and on the other hand, it was too expensive.
With these spiritual stones, Xu Qing felt that he could issue missions and let others capture sea beasts for him. So after thinking about it, Xu Qing already wanted to give up.
So he let the informant leave, changed into a gray monk's robe, and prepared to buy and sell materials.
When he returns this time, he has a lot to buy, whether it is medicinal herbs or talismans. In addition, he plans to take a look at the magic weapons sold in the sect.
Magical weapons are very expensive, and Xu Qing was reluctant to part with them before. Now that his pockets are quite rich, he plans to choose one.
At the same time, Xu Qing was also very interested in the soul slips thrown out by Wu Jianwu from Yifeng, and planned to find out if they had been sold. Although the efficiency of this item was average, it was very convenient to absorb.
"There is also a spiritual breath lamp." Xu Qing was thinking as he walked on the street. At this moment, he was covered by the gray robe and his restrained cultivation. He looked very ordinary, except for one or two occasionally.
The eyes glanced at him very vaguely from the crowd.
The people swept in were all foundation-building monks wearing gray robes like Xu Qing. They noticed each other through the induction of each other's energy, and often moved away as soon as their eyes met, without disturbing each other.
In this way, Xu Qing came to the breakfast stall where he used to go every day, sat down, and had a delicious meal under the warm greetings of the stall owner. This time, he ate four eggs.
Although he could go without eating for several days after entering the foundation building realm and nourish himself with mana, Xu Qing still liked to eat as before, which gave him a sense of satisfaction -
While eating, he took out his identity token and sent a message to Huang Yan, asking him what would happen next when he proposed to buy the Spiritual Breath Lamp.
Huang Yan did not reply immediately. It was not until Xu Qing was about to leave after eating that he received a message from Huang Yan. "Buy, Xu Qing, you are back. I will find you where you are."
Looking at Huang Yan's reply, Xu Qing's eyes showed anticipation, thinking that half a million spirit stones would be received. He was in a very happy mood. After informing the other party of the location, Xu Qing soon saw Huang Yan running all the way.
. He seemed to be fatter, and the ring of flesh stretched out by his clothes was several layers thicker than before. Seeing Xu Qing, Huang Yan laughed and threw out a thick bundle of spiritual tickets. "The face value of a thousand spiritual stones,
They are all exclusive spiritual tickets for the Sixth Peak, a total of 200.
"Time is too short. I only got these from the spirit stone. How about I use a magic weapon to offset the rest." Huang Yan said, taking out a piece of black inner armor and handing it to Xu Qing.
"Magical weapon" Xu Qing took over the inner armor. After the influx of mana, he immediately felt that the inner armor was filled with countless runes. They were arranged together according to a certain pattern and filled the entire inner armor. At a glance, it was scary.
It cost no less than 100,000 yuan. Xu Qing could tell how good the inner armor was with just a little sensitivity.
"This is a piece of Ten Thousand Talisman Armor. I originally planned to give it to my senior sister, but I think she prefers the Spirit Breath Lamp. I'll exchange this armor with you. You can sell it for around 300,000 Spirit Breath Lamps."
Stone.
"Although this thing is only a low-level magic weapon, its protection is very good. If you encounter a Xuan Yao state foundation while wearing it, as long as the opponent is not a second fire, it can resist it several times."
Huang Yan seemed to know a lot about foundation building. It was obvious that his senior sister had popularized it to him many times, and his cultivation level was obviously on the verge of a breakthrough.
Xu Qing nodded, put away the Ten Thousand Talisman Armor, and took out the Spirit Breath Lamp and handed it to Huang Yan.
"Do you need me to send you to the Seventh Peak?" Xu Qing looked at Huang Yan who was playing with the spirit lamp and said softly. "No, who dares to snatch the things I want to give to senior sister?" Huang Yan patted his belly, pleased with himself.
He put away the spiritual breath lamp and was about to take out the jade slip to send messages to his senior sister when he suddenly thought of something and looked back at Xu Qing.
"Xu Qing, last time I told you that there was going to be a war, it was basically confirmed. You can decide whether to join the war."
After saying that, he waved to Xu Qing and quickly ran towards the seventh peak.
Looking at Huang Yan's back, Xu Qing also felt deep in his heart. He found that Huang Yan was really rich. He could take out hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones and magical weapons on demand. However, Xu Qing did not investigate Huang Yan's background. This
It was a taboo thing in Qixuetong, and Xu Qing didn't want to do it.
So after watching Huang Yan leave, he thought about what the other person had said before and narrowed his eyes slightly. "War."
Xu Qing pondered, and the last thought in his heart about opening up a port was wiped out at this moment. He was going to use the right to open up the port in exchange for a street. Although the benefits were not much, it was better than nothing.
With this thought in mind, Xu Qing walked towards the shop selling jade charms.
Most of the shops in the main city that buy and sell items used by foundation-building monks are in the Pengming District of the Sixth Peak. There are not many in the port area, and because the prices are extremely high, there are very few customers in such shops.
Most of them had separate compartments and were served by dedicated disciples. So after arriving in Pengming District, Xu Qing searched around and finally chose a shop called Mingqi Pavilion and walked in. This shop is considered the sixth-largest shop in the entire
It is one of the largest shops in Fengpengming District. It has five floors of attic, and the area of each floor is almost more than 200 feet. The interior is even more luxurious and looks very impressive.
In particular, there are many waiters inside, both men and women, who seem to outnumber the customers at any time, and they are all handsome and beautiful.
As soon as Xu Qing stepped in, he immediately attracted the attention of many waiters in the shop. In fact, although Xu Qing was wearing a gray robe, his appearance was extremely outstanding. Even in the eyes of many female waiters, Xu Qing's arrival made the shop seem to brighten up.
Down.
Not to mention that the people who dare to step into their shop are basically no ordinary people, at least they are core disciples, especially since they entertain a lot of Foundation Establishment monks. It is very clear that most of the sect's Foundation Establishment monks like to wear gray robes.
So many waiters walked quickly to receive him, but one of them, a beautiful girl with twin tails, was the first to arrive in front of Xu Qing before everyone else.
"Senior brother, you can call me Xiaohui. If you need any help from me, I will do my best to serve you." The girl looked at Xu Qing's face, her face turned slightly red, and she spoke softly. "
Our Mingqi Pavilion mainly focuses on utensils. The first floor is talismans, the second floor is jade talismans, and the third floor is magic weapons. Senior brother, what do you want to see, I will introduce it to you.
Xu Qing glanced around and noticed that there were no other customers on the first floor of the store except himself. At the same time, he also saw that the walls here were covered with various talismans.
Although they are all sealed, there are still considerable fluctuations spreading. Especially there are dozens of crystal pillars in the hall, and there are also talismans shining inside.
Being stored separately like this, it can be seen that the quality should be better. "I want to see the magic weapon." Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and looked at the girl whose face became more and more rosy under his gaze. The girl with two ponytails calmly opened her eyes after hearing this.
brighter.
