Due to the convenient river transportation, the ancient market not only has the largest weapons market in Dongzhou, but is also the leading medicinal materials distribution center in the upper and lower reaches of the Shenxiu River.
Chu Xisheng walked out of the door of Shenbing Hall and was about to go to the medicinal materials market on Huangmu Street next door to buy some goods.
But just as they were crossing an alley and heading towards Huangmu Street, Chu Yunyun's steps suddenly stopped.
She looked at the door of a nearby store with a surprised look.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xisheng, who was walking in front, turned her head and followed Chu Yunyun's gaze.
This is a pawn shop located in an alley, and most of the pawned items are weapons and the like.
Chu Xisheng took a quick look and found that the doors and windows of this pawn shop were all mottled and old.
The weapons displayed at the entrance of the pawn shop are all ordinary, nothing high-end.
Chu Xisheng was confused for a while.
This pawn shop is not located on the main street, which shows that the store's strength is very limited.
I don’t know what it was that attracted Chu Yunyun.
Chu Yunyun walked in without saying a word. She walked to a wooden barrel next to the door and looked up and down carefully.
Inside this wooden barrel, there were dozens of long-handled weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds piled up.
After Chu Yunyun looked at it for a moment, she pulled out a black iron spear about one foot and eight feet long.
In Chu Xisheng's opinion, this was an iron spear.
The metal pole is one foot and eighty long, with a sharp spearhead at the end.
Chu Xisheng also took a closer look, but could not find anything surprising about this iron spear.
Its spear body is black and has a snake-like texture, which shows that it is made of black iron and is cold forged.
But for some reason, the spear body is too thick, a circle larger than a normal spear.
Therefore, this spear will be very heavy, placing a great burden on the person who uses it.
There are some deep scratches on it, which shows that the gun body may not be that strong.
But the one who took a fancy to it was the former first-class divine general, Wang Qin Muge.
Chu Xisheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you like this spear? If you like it, buy it."
In its heyday, Qin Muge was known as the "Pair of Spears and Halberds", but now Chu Yunyun only has a pair of ninth-grade short halberds in her hands, but lacks a suitable long spear.
In Chu Xisheng's view, there is actually no essential difference between a gun and a spear.
Spears generally have blades on both sides of the tip and barbs on the tail, similar to the head of an arrow, which will increase secondary damage when pulled out. There is no tassel, which is convenient for throwing.
The gun has bladed spikes protruding from both sides of the tip of the gun. The prismatic design is conducive to breaking armor. There is a red tassel behind the gun head to prevent blood mist from splashing into the eyes.
"Where is this spear?" Lu Luanli glanced sideways at him: "This is clearly the flagpole of a military flag, but it's just missing the flag and red tassel."
She also looked very confused. Isn't Chu Yunyun a magician? She shouldn't need this thing.
Chu Yunyun silently stroked the 'flagpole', and she did not understand what the magic of this thing was.
But when she passed by the pawn shop just now, her heart skipped a beat, and she vaguely felt like something was calling to her inside the shop.
It's a pity that she has lost her true essence. Otherwise, she only needs to probe a ray of true essence into it to know the root of this thing.
At this time, Chu Yunyun's expression suddenly moved slightly, and she discovered that there was a strange and vague character engraved on the tail of the flagpole.
Just when Chu Yunyun wanted to identify it carefully, a middle-aged man in the shop came over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you like this spear? It's a pity that this spear was pawned by others and it has not expired today.
It cannot be sold yet. However, we still have many fine spears and spears, both seventh and eighth grade, for you to choose from."
Chu Yunyun frowned and put the flagpole back: "Forget it, let's go."
There may be something magical about this flagpole, but Chu Yunyun is not willing to take it from others.
She was not interested in the other guns and spears in this store.
Chu Xisheng's expression changed slightly, and he asked the middle-aged man: "Shopkeeper, when will this spear expire?"
He actually wanted to ask where the original owner of the flagpole was and buy it directly from the original owner, but this was against the rules.
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly when he heard this: "The owner of this spear pawned it half a month ago. According to the rules, we have to wait half a year before we can sell it."
Chu Xisheng shook his head, turned around and continued walking towards Huangmu Street.
‘Huangmu Street’ is the largest medicinal materials market in Xiushui County. There are not only hundreds of medicine shops that have been operating for many years, but also many scattered medicinal materials merchants.
Chu Yunyun did a lot of shopping here and gathered all the magic materials.
They also prepared thirty bottles of 'Yang He Powder' at cost price, which could extend the lives of the two brothers and sisters for forty-five days each.
Chu Xisheng spent more than 400 taels of magic silver to buy thirty 'Yuan-Building Pills' and gathered all the secret medicine and supplementary materials for the third level of Yuan-Yang Gong.
The main ingredient of the secret medicine is 'Ice Silkworm Fire Chrysalis', which is a strange medicine produced in volcanic ice lakes.
Only in the glacial lakes on the tops of extinct volcanoes can such strange things as "ice silkworms and fire pupae" appear, which are as magical as Cordyceps sinensis.
Chu Xisheng looked at this thing with excitement.
He went to various major medicine stores to inquire about the price of the 'Ice Silkworm Fire Chrysalis', and no one offered a price lower than seven hundred taels of magic silver.
The key is that Chu Xisheng doesn't have anywhere to collect medicine.
The nearest extinct volcano is more than 3,600 miles away from Xiushui County.
Moreover, those ice lakes on the top of the mountain are all occupied and monopolized by martial arts families and powerful families from all over the world, and others are not allowed to get involved.
When Chu Xisheng walked out of the largest medicine shop on Huangmu Street, he frowned while holding less than seventy taels of magic silver in his pocket.
In one month, his second level of Yangyuan Gong will be completed, but where can he earn this money?
Act as a escort? Work? Go hunting in the wild? Collect medicine? Or look after people's homes?
——The money is coming very slowly.
Robbery was fast, but Chu Xisheng couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart. Secondly, the local tyrants and evil gentry in this world were not easy to deal with, and there were many guards at home.
The government doesn't care about the life and death of ordinary people, but if you dare to touch a wealthy family, they will definitely use their best efforts to catch you and bring you to justice.
If he doesn't have the abilities of the 'Blood Wind Thief', he can't take on this porcelain job.
"We will slowly earn the money from the Ice Silkworm and Fire Chrysalis." Chu Yunyun looked at Chu Xisheng with a warning in her eyes: "Don't give in!"
She just saw Chu Xisheng asking about the price of another medicinal material, 'Red Blood Ice Vine'.
This is a medicinal material that can replace the ice silkworm and fire pupa. It is much cheaper and only costs 200 taels of magic silver.
The problem is that all the secret medicine formulas of Yangyuan Gong were continuously improved by Wuxiang Shenzong for more than 10,000 years.
It is said that every five years, the auxiliary medicines in this formula will be changed, and every two hundred years, the main medicine will be changed to cope with the changes in the human body's blood and the world.
Currently, the effect of ‘Ice Silkworm Fire Chrysalis’ is the best.
This prescription can ensure that there will be no future troubles after the bloodline is unsealed. It is the true 'Authentic Xuanmen' and points directly to the supreme road.
The reason why most martial arts practitioners in this world have low achievements is not because they have insufficient talents, but because secret medicines are scarce and expensive.
Many people have worked hard for ten or twenty years, but they may not be able to collect enough money to buy the 'Ice Silkworm Fire Chrysalis' worth 700 taels. So they change their mind and choose to take those cheap secret medicines.
But in this way, their future martial arts Yuan Gong can only be limited to the seventh level, or even the eighth level.
The hidden dangers and toxicity of cheap secret medicine are enough to ruin their future.
If Chu Xisheng makes a mistake now, it will affect his future martial arts achievements.
Chu Xisheng smiled bitterly when he heard this. He actually had no intention of compromising, he just wanted to understand the market situation.
He frowned and said thoughtfully: "Yunyun, do you think there is any job in this world that can make me money quickly and make me famous?"
Chu Yunyun thought, how could such a good thing happen in this world?
No! There are still some. In the past, she led the army in the Northern Expedition. Not only did she make a lot of money, but she also became famous all over the world.
There are also those heroes who are famous all over the world. They have turned the word "chivalry" into a business and make a lot of money every day.
But this obviously doesn't suit them both.
"Yes, there is!"
Following this silver bell-like voice, Lu Luanli walked over from a distance carrying a large package.
She had just been separated from Chu Xisheng for a while, and also purchased a lot of medicinal materials on Huangmu Street.
She sneered and pointed to the road: "It's at the South Street Temple Market, black market competition. If you play a few competitions there, you can not only make money, but also become famous. If it's a life-and-death competition, you can earn even more.
Yes, but there are risks.”
Chu Xisheng was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes became full of interest.
