Seeing Qin Fengming accepting his daughter, Du Tao was very happy and said with a smile on his face: "Fellow Taoist Qin, Du has chosen an auspicious day to hold the apprenticeship ceremony. To inform the disciples of Jinfu Sect and nearby Taoist friends, why not set it here?"
On the fifteenth day of the month, I wonder what your friendship is like?"
"Haha, Master Du, there is no need to go to such trouble. The complicated etiquette can be omitted. As long as Qin and Wanqing have settled on their master-disciple status."
When he heard that the ceremony was going to be held, Qin Fengming was immediately unhappy. He didn't like liveliness by nature, so such a troublesome thing was not what he wanted.
Seeing the unhappy look on Qin Fengming's face, Du Tao laughed and said: "Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist Qin, the apprenticeship needs to be lively, so that all the fellow Taoists nearby can come to participate in this matter. Fellow Taoist, you don't need to worry. As long as you show up when the time comes, the rest will be left to you."
Just Du."
Seeing that the other party was like this, Qin Fengming also knew that Jinfu Sect wanted to use this to tell the nearby comrades that Jinfu Sect had Qin Fengming as a big backer, and thought that it would be of great benefit to Du Wanqing to stay here to practice in the future, so he stopped insisting.
"Okay, just follow what the sect master said."
At this time, Qin Fengming looked at Du Wanqing again. He had not seen her for several months. Although her cultivation level had not yet broken through to the ninth level, it was not far away. Since he decided to accept this woman as his disciple, he had to help her.
"Master Du, I don't know how far the largest market here is from the Golden Talisman Gate. There are still ten days until the fifteenth of this month. Qin wants to buy some herbs to help Wan Qing build the foundation as soon as possible."
"What? Fellow Taoist want to buy spiritual grass? Fellow Taoist, you don't know that Quzhou's cultivation resources are extremely poor, especially spiritual grass, which is sold at a sky-high price. Even our Golden Talisman Sect cannot afford to buy spiritual grass to help our disciples practice."
Qin Fengming also knows the current situation in Quzhou in detail. There are also spiritual stone mines to collect spiritual stones. Spiritual grass is very difficult. There is a dangerous place in Quzhou called Monster Valley. There are many dangers in it. Levels 4 and 5
Monsters abound, and no ordinary monk dares to enter them.
But such a dangerous place is the origin of the main spiritual grass in Quzhou. Therefore, even the most common spiritual grass is sold at a sky-high price in Quzhou.
Qin Fengming is not worried about spiritual stones. As long as he has the talisman, he will have a steady stream of spiritual stones.
"Haha, the master doesn't need to worry about the spiritual stone. I only need to know where the market is?"
Seeing Qin Fengming's nonchalant expression, Du Tao was greatly surprised. He didn't know how the monk in front of him could be so calm. That was a sky-high price spiritual stone.
"Thirty thousand miles north of here, there is the largest city in Quzhou. In it, whether it is materials or magic weapons, spiritual weapons and magic weapons, they are all very precious. But the price is also very expensive."
Hearing that the young master who had just become a master was going to prepare elixirs for him, Du Wanqing's handsome young face immediately showed a happy face. She secretly thought to herself that this little master of hers is really quite good.
Standing outside a huge town shop, Qin Fengming was secretly shocked. He had never thought of such a large market. There was an endless stream of monks in the market, which was much larger than the market near Jinfu Gate.
The prosperity has doubled.
Walking in the city, Qin Fengming felt as if he was not in Quzhou. Looking at the shops lined up on both sides of the road, he seemed to feel overwhelmed. Many of the shops were built with great style and tallness.
But the names of the shops here are different from those in other markets.
I saw a flag hanging above each store, with various beasts depicted on it and the names of the firms written on them.
Only then did Qin Fengming truly understand what the one hundred and eight large merchant alliances mentioned in the original books were.
The area of the Yuanfeng Empire is too huge, and resources vary greatly from place to place. Therefore, there have been merchants that specialize in transporting resources from various places to complement each other. After tens of thousands of years of accumulation, many merchants have become larger and larger, forming
There are 108 business alliances at this time.
These merchant alliances are spread throughout the Yuanfeng Empire. I never thought that such a remote place as Quzhou would also have the footprints of these merchant alliances.
The Blood Fox Alliance ranks among the top twenty in terms of strength among the 108 merchant alliances, and its footprints are spread throughout the Yuanfeng Empire. It is said that there are many masters in the alliance, and there are dozens of Huaying monks alone.
He is mainly engaged in the trading of goods, so many sects have good relations with him.
At this time, Qin Fengming was standing in front of the Blood Fox Alliance's store. Looking at the tall storefront, Qin Fengming secretly admired it in his heart. The building was fifteen or six feet high, with a total of three floors. The carved beams and painted pillars made it look very majestic.
Walking into the hall on the first floor, I saw a counter occupying one-third of the hall. Inside the counter, several monks were introducing items to customers. The customers on the first floor were all Qi Gathering Stage disciples. There were several Eight Immortals tables placed on one side of the hall.
, several monks were sitting at the table drinking tea.
Seeing that Qin Fengming was a monk in the foundation-building stage, a guy immediately came over.
"This senior, I don't know what kind of items he wants to buy when he comes to our Blood Fox Alliance. As long as the senior needs anything, our alliance will basically provide it."
Hearing what the clerk said, Qin Fengming smiled slightly and said without hesitation: "I wonder if your business alliance has anything recorded on my jade slip?" After saying that, he reached out and handed over the jade slip in his hand.
After taking the jade slip, the clerk's expression changed slightly after a moment, and he raised his head and said: "Senior, our business alliance has all the things recorded above. It's just that the purchase of so many spiritual herbs at one time cost a lot. I don't know what your plans are.
Exchange it for spiritual stones or other items of equal value?"
"How many spiritual stones are needed for the spiritual grass recorded in the jade slip?"
"If you need one of each kind of spiritual grass, it will cost about 73,000 spiritual stones." The man looked down at the jade slip for a moment and said.
Hearing this, Qin Fengming couldn't help but take a deep breath. On this jade slip, only a dozen kinds of spiritual herbs were recorded for refining Huang Jingdan. One plant of each type requires more than 70,000 spiritual stones. Calculated in this way,
Each plant costs tens of thousands of spirit stones, which is ten times the price quoted by Luoxia Zongfang City.
No wonder Du Tao once said that even their Golden Talisman Sect could not afford to purchase spiritual herbs to refine elixirs for their disciples to take.
"Qin has some elementary and high-level fire python talismans. I wonder how your business alliance can purchase them?" After thinking about it, Qin Fengming decided to exchange them for the talismans.
"Fire Python Talisman? This is extremely rare. Well, our merchant alliance usually bids seventy to eighty spirit stones. However, I cannot make the decision. I need to ask the person in charge of the alliance to make the decision. Senior, please come with me."
After that, the guy took Qin Fengming into a room on one side of the hall.
This room is not big, only two or three feet in size. After Qin Fengming is ready and the fragrant tea is served, the waiter exits.
Not long ago, an old man with a reddish complexion walked into the room, walked quickly to Qin Fengming, and said: "This old man is the person in charge of the Blood Fox Alliance here. My surname is Zhang. I don't know what I call you?"
Qin Fengming raised his head and looked at the person in front of him. He saw that this person had the peak level of cultivation in the later stage of Foundation Establishment, with a kind look on his face, so he stood up and said: "My surname is Qin. I have a large number of fire python talismans on my body. I don't know if your alliance plans to issue one."
How many spirit stones can be exchanged?”
He didn't hesitate and stated his purpose directly.
