Sitting in the quiet room, Hong Ming's face was expressionless, but he was a little uneasy in his heart.
Although the armored crocodile is precious, it is difficult to say how much it is worth, especially if a third-level Qi practitioner obtained this treasure. Obtaining this treasure will inevitably make people suspicious.
If he were in another store, Hong Ming was sure that someone would be following him soon after he left the house.
When the time comes, he will die accidentally.
That's why Hong Ming chose Zhang's store.
Zhang's shop is the manager of the city, and the family has a big business. The monster leather armor in the middle stage of Qi training will not be looked at even if it is precious.
Here, it doesn't matter even if the selling price suffers a little loss.
Not long after waiting, a middle-aged monk walked in.
"Your Majesty, you have been waiting for a long time."
The middle-aged monk greeted him politely as soon as he came in.
"Senior, you're too polite. I didn't wait long." Hong Ming said politely.
The middle-aged monk sat down and did not talk about business. He was polite at first and introduced himself. This man's name is Zhang Yongfu. He is at the sixth level of Qi training. Because he is old, there is no hope of breaking through the foundation building stage, and he does not want to continue to fight.
Well, I went on an errand at Zhang's house.
The days were also considered relaxed and unrestrained.
"Fellow Daoist Hong has something he wants to get rid of. I wonder if he can show it to me now?" Zhang Yongfu asked after the greetings.
"Of course, I also ask fellow Taoist Zhang to palm his eyes."
Hong Ming said calmly, waved his hand, and took out the armored crocodile from the storage bag. The giant teeth, tail, and armor on its back were placed in the quiet room intact.
When Zhang Yongfu saw this scene, his expression changed slightly:
"This is the treasure from the armored crocodile!"
Leaning down, Zhang Yongfu checked it carefully. The more he checked, the more surprised Zhang Yongfu looked, and the surprise in his eyes was undisguised:
"Fellow Taoist Hong is lucky. The treasure on this armored crocodile is almost intact. If this thing hadn't been taken from an armored crocodile, I would have thought that fellow Taoist hunted four or five armored crocodiles by himself."
Hong Ming remained silent.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to hunt armored crocodiles.
Even if the monks took action in the later stage of Qi training and spent a lot of effort, they would probably break the armor on the armored crocodile's back. In this case, the value of hunting the armored crocodile would be greatly reduced.
The things in Hong Ming's hands are indeed good things.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, how did you kill this armored crocodile? I'm really curious."
Zhang Yongfu seemed to ask casually.
When Hong Ming heard this, his calm expression changed slightly and he said:
"This involves the exercises and spells I have practiced. Does the Zhang family's shop need to check these when purchasing treasures?"
Seeing that Hong Ming was a little angry, Zhang Yongfu immediately apologized: "Don't blame me, fellow Taoist, I was rude. These things need some time to be estimated. Fellow Taoist, just wait for a moment."
This time, Zhang Yongfu called the boy over and said a few words.
Soon, Zhang's store sent three people over to check and estimate bit by bit.
The boy made two more cups of tea and placed them on the table.
"Fellow Taoist Hong, I was rude just now. This cup of Oolong Ling tea can be considered as an apology to fellow Taoist, please!" Zhang Yongfu said, picked up the tea himself, took a sip, then closed his eyes and tasted it carefully.
.
When Hong Ming saw this, he was stunned for a moment and then picked up the tea cup.
There is blue tea in the teacup, and inside the tea are three spiritual leaves.
The whole cup of tea exudes a faint aura.
After taking a sip, a faint fragrance came out of the tea, which made Hong Ming feel refreshed and energetic.
What's even more amazing is that the spiritual energy contained in the tea also dissipates after entering the body. The Hongming Kung Fu slowly operates, and this spiritual energy is slowly refined.
“Great tea!”
Hong Ming couldn't help but speak.
This tea can refresh you, so it is of little use, but the spiritual energy contained in it is not simple and can speed up your cultivation.
If he drinks more than ten cups a day, Hong Ming's cultivation speed may increase by 10%.
"Fellow Taoist, it's okay if you like it. This tea is brewed by picking the leaves of the second-order Oolong tree and brewing it with the spiritual water in the spiritual spring. It is also of great benefit to practice. It's a pity that this cup is not enough.
It requires fifteen spiritual stones, and drinking one cup a day will have the best effect. More than three cups will have almost no effect."
Zhang Yongfu explained.
Hong Ming's heart trembled, a trace of envy appeared on his face, and he said:
"As expected of the Zhang family, it is really enviable to be able to raise such a second-level spiritual tree!"
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist. If you like it, you can buy some tea and spiritual water and brew it yourself. It will have a different flavor!" Zhang Yongfu said kindly.
Hong Ming smiled and did not answer.
Fifteen spiritual stones a day, four to five hundred spiritual stones in a month.
If you have this spiritual stone, you can buy five or six water spiritual pills every month. The cultivation effect is dozens of times better than taking this spiritual tea. Only fools who have useless spiritual stones would use this method to practice.
Hong Ming didn't answer and waited quietly.
Soon, several people from Zhang's shop finished the calculations and walked to Zhang Yongfu's side and whispered a few words.
Zhang Yongfu nodded and asked several people to retreat.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, these things have been estimated. The quality is not to mention, and they are very well preserved. Therefore, the Zhang family will not pressure you on the price. However, this armored crocodile itself is a first-order monster. It is only in the middle stage of Qi training and its strength is not high."
It’s so strong that we can’t give too high a price.”
"Oh, fellow Daoist Zhang, just say so."
Hong Ming had a smile on his face.
"The iron armor on the back can be used to refine five sets of inner armor. Each set is worth about two hundred spirit stones. However, we need manpower and ore to refine it, so we can give you three hundred spirit stones."
"Eight teeth can be refined into magical weapons such as daggers, and can be given to a hundred spiritual stones."
"The tailbone can be refined into a whip-like magical weapon, which can give you one hundred and thirty spiritual stones."
"The upper and lower jaws can be used to refine long knives and can be given one hundred and fifty spiritual stones."
"So, if Fellow Daoist Hong is willing to exchange these things for six hundred and eighty spiritual stones, I can give Fellow Daoist a preferential price, which is an integer of seven hundred Spiritual Stones. What do you think, Fellow Daoist?"
Zhang Yongfu said with a smile.
Seven Hundred Spiritual Stones?
When Hong Ming heard this, his heart trembled.
With so many spiritual stones, many monks in the late stages of Qi training may not be able to obtain them all at once.
This was Hong Ming's trick. He kept the body of the armored crocodile intact, and all the places that could be sold were left intact. Otherwise, he might have only gained one or two hundred spiritual stones after one hard work.
Although he thought so in his heart, Hong Ming frowned slightly, with some helplessness and hesitation on his face:
"Zhang Daoyou, this price is a bit low. In order to keep this armored crocodile, I also spent a lot of money. I spent as much as five hundred yuan in spiritual stones. I took such a big risk to pay such a small price.
I must be at a loss for the spirit stones, not to mention if I don’t worry about the trouble and hire someone to refine them, I’m afraid I can earn almost a thousand spirit stones!”
"Fellow Taoist, you are joking."
Zhang Yongfu quickly began to explain.
The two bargained for half an hour before Hong Ming left with satisfaction.
