In the end, Luo Jian and the others still did not call Ning Chen their boss. After hearing that Ning Chen was going to name his talisman shop Shangqing Pavilion, they resolutely called Ning Chen the master of the pavilion. Ning Chen felt quite comfortable with it, so that's it.
Let them go.
The name Shangqing Pavilion naturally comes from the lineage of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun in Chinese legends, who are best at using Taoism. The most well-known among them is the Maoshan Taoism in folklore, which is simply for exorcising ghosts, subduing demons, and praying for blessings.
A super being who is good at reciting spells and drawing talismans. With such a powerful inheritance, Ning Chen naturally wants to spread the name of the Shangqing lineage widely in this world.
…
Several people walked all the way to find out the details of the Qingyun Kingdom. After more than a month, they arrived at Xingyun City, the largest city in the south of the Qingyun Kingdom. At the same time, they had almost learned about the situation of the Qingyun Kingdom.
Compared to the five Cangshan sects behind the Cangshan Kingdom, each of which has a master from the late Ningyuan period, the Qingyun Kingdom has only one Qingyun Sect as its backer.
However, the power of the Qingyun Sect alone has surpassed the five sects of Cangshan combined, because the Qingyun Sect's suppressing exercise "Qingyun Dafa" is a local level exercise that can be cultivated to the legendary golden elixir realm, and
Now the leader of the Qingyun Sect is a master-level master of the Golden Core Stage!
Qingyun Sect has always been one of the more powerful existences among the nearby forces. It has been passed down for thousands of years. The ancestors of the Golden Core Stage in the sect are rarely interrupted, and the eight Cloud Kings who divide the true world are basically in the late stage of Ning Yuan.
Some supreme elders of the same realm, plus ordinary elders in the early and middle stages of Yuan Ning Yuan and countless envoys of the religion in the late stage of Qi Refining, have always looked down upon the surrounding area of tens of thousands of miles.
Today's Qingyun Sect is at its peak. Although the sudden disappearance of the previous leader two hundred years ago caused some confusion, the current leader Wu Changfeng is a rare and heroic figure. Although he succeeded to the throne in a hurry, he died the same month he took over.
Breaking through to the realm of golden elixir, he turned the tide under the pressure of the four forces and stabilized the situation of Qingyun Sect.
It has been more than two hundred years now, the surrounding situation has stabilized, and the Qingyun Sect has reached its peak again. In addition to the direct disciples it has trained, it only recruits monks from the Ning Yuan period as guest ministers, and there is no limit on sect origin. Although the recruitment conditions are extremely
Harsh, but correspondingly, the treatment is also quite good. This strategy has not only won over some aristocratic sects in Qingyun Kingdom, but also almost wiped out all the powerful loose cultivators in the country. In this way, Qingyun Sect has become more and more powerful, overwhelming the rest.
The power cannot hold its head high, so it has no choice but to surrender.
In the entire Qingyun Sect, except for the leader Wu Changfeng who sits in Qingyun Mountain, the eight cloud kings in the sect each sit in eight cities in the Qingyun Kingdom. Each of them is a place where monks gather. It is extremely prosperous and even better than Cangshanfang City where Ning Chen was before.
.
The Xingyun City where Ning Chen and his party arrived now is where the Southern Cloud King Huang Ying is seated. It is also one of the most prosperous cities in the Qingyun Kingdom. The city is located on the bank of a large river. The city is three feet high and has a radius of hundreds of miles. Outside the city
The official roads extend in all directions, and the houses in the city are lined up in rows. There are countless monks living in them, and there are even more ordinary people.
For opening a shop, Ning Chen actually doesn't have much capital anymore, but fortunately he still has the spoils accumulated from several battles. Xingyun City is very large, and there are even many ordinary people who specialize in monk business, and the prices of shops are also very low.
Very high, Ning Chen and his party easily bought a small courtyard in the west of the city. There is a store in the front, and a three-entry courtyard behind the store. The front yard is a utility room and kitchen. Luo Jian and his party live in the middle courtyard.
The backyard is naturally Ning Chen's residence.
Ning Chen and his party settled in properly. Three days later, the simply decorated Shangqing Pavilion opened in a low-key manner. Luo Jian was the caretaker, Sun Feifei was the salesperson, and Ning Chen was naturally the shopkeeper.
…
"Huh? Wasn't this a medical clinic for mortals before? Why did the shopkeeper change?" The shop opened. A passing monk saw the three characters "Shangqing Pavilion" exuding a faint spiritual energy on the signboard, and knew that it was a shop that greeted monks. For a moment,
Curiosity came in and asked.
In Bilanzhou, it's easy to distinguish between shops facing monks and mortals. It all depends on whether the signboard has aura. The monks can tell the difference at a glance. As for whether mortals can tell the difference, haha, do their opinions matter?
"Hello, this guest, the old man who used to live in the medical center passed away. His son was not good at studying and sold this store to run other businesses. Now I am taking over this place from Shangqing Pavilion to do some talisman business."
When a guest came to the door, Sun Feifei greeted him with a smile.
"There are not many masters who paint talismans in Shangqing Pavilion. The main ones are sword talismans for attack, shield talismans, spiritual talismans for training support, as well as sweet rain talisman, evergreen talisman, detoxification talisman, and exorcism talisman.
, there are also a small amount of Baiyang Fire Talisman and Raging Fire Streaming Talisman, the quantity is limited, first come first served."
"What? What you mainly sell are all yellow-level and high-grade talismans, including the Fiery Streaming Talisman?" The monk who entered the pavilion was shocked when he heard this.
Although Xingyun City is prosperous, most of the Xuan-level items are still yellow-level items. This newly opened small shop on a remote street actually sells all yellow-level middle and top-grade talismans, and even
Isn't it surprising that there is also a small masterpiece like the Fire Streaming Talisman?
"How many Fire Streaming Talismans do you have?"
"Three pieces, each priced at twenty lower-grade spiritual stones."
"Hey, it's so cheap? Give me one, let's count two, and two each of the Sword Yuan Talisman and the Shield Yuan Talisman. How many spiritual stones are there?"
"Twelve spiritual stones for the Sword Yuan Talisman, fifteen shield Yuan Talismans, and ninety-four low-grade spiritual stones for Chenghui." Sun Feifei said.
This price is slightly lower than Ning Chen’s selling price at Shanfeng Pavilion, but those shops that purchase the talismans also have to make a profit. The selling price of these two talismans at Shanfeng Pavilion is about 50% higher than the purchase price, so
If you do the math, Ning Chen's price is quite conscientious.
Facts have proved that the prices of goods in Qingyun Kingdom and Cangshan Kingdom are similar. When he saw the price quoted by Shangqing Pavilion, the casual cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining checked the talisman and took out the spirit stone without hesitation and left happily.
"Open the door!" Sun Feifei smiled and made a scissors gesture to Luo Jian, which she learned from Ning Chen when she opened the store this morning.
"Great, if we sell it at this price, the talisman given by the pavilion master will be sold out soon." Luo Jian was also extremely happy, but he was a little worried about the selling price of the talisman, "Do we still have enough inventory?
And will our price offend other stores?"
"The master of the pavilion said that we can only sell so much every day. If the inventory is not enough, we will close down. We are just a small shop with a limited number of talismans for sale. We will not affect the business of those big forces."
"That's it." Luo Jian nodded and felt relieved.
…
The place where Shangqing Pavilion is located is indeed a bit remote. There are only three or five monks-oriented shops on the entire street. Therefore, although the talismans sold in the pavilion are of high quality and low price, only four monks did business in one day. The largest one
Shan was the casual cultivator who first came to the door in the morning.
