Chapter 67: Experience life in the world of immortality
Xuan Shao and Yan Shaorao were used to seeing airplanes and large naval vessels in modern society, but when they saw the ships in the harbor, they were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden - they were dazzled.
When Brother Yan lamented the liveliness of the harbor pier, Master Xuan showed his eagerness to learn and ask questions: "Wasn't this place so lively before?"
Yan Zhen tells the truth: "Most of the islands in southern Hokuriku are divided into rainy and cool seasons, or rainy, hot or dry seasons. The seasonal distinction in this area is not obvious, but due to the influence of southeasterly winds in February and March every year, it rains more
Due to the fog, most of the fishing teams do not go to sea. It is the off-season for sea fishing.
The time when I went to sea was at the end of February, and most of the people coming and going in the harbor were long-distance merchant ships. The fishing and gathering teams in the offshore were in a rest period, so the harbor was not so lively."
Xuan Shao understands that during the season when we don’t go to sea, the pier is naturally quiet.
Classmate Le Xiao let the spirit boat move slowly until it landed on a trestle, flew onto the trestle, and collected the spirit boat.
The four of them walked slowly, and the three hidden beasts quietly poked their heads out of their sleeves to watch.
Young Master Xuan and Young Master were quite calm at first, until two of the people walking towards them had a pair of bull's ears, and they were so shocked that their pupils turned into bells.
Little Loli once said that there are various races in the spiritual world, including those with animal bodies and human faces, or races with human faces and animal bodies, as well as half-demon hybrids of humans and animals.
When they heard it, they felt like they had read "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" when they were young. They thought it was a fairy tale. Now, the half-demon with animal ears and human body was right in front of them.
When the mythical story became reality, the strong impact left the two of them speechless!
People with cow-eared bodies are the hybrids born from the intermarriage between cow monsters and humans. They are generally called cow-beast-human half-demon. Because humans have more blood, only their ears are animal ears.
There are several branches of ox-orcs, one with cow ears and human body, one with bull head and human body, and one with human face and cow body. After each branch intermarry with other races, their characteristics are also diverse.
Just as Yan Shaoxuan and Shao were stunned with shock, another horse-orc with a horse's head and body came over. The huge impact hit them, and their eyes almost fell to the ground.
The human race's gaze was too hot. The horse-headed man felt it and looked at the human race.
Le Yun also knew the reason for the horse-headed man's visit, and apologized to the other party: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, this is the first time for my two companions to travel far away. They have little experience and are rude."
"No problem." The horse-headed man nodded slightly, accepted the apology and left in a hurry.
Young Master Xuan and Young Master Yan finally recovered from the shock, and their faces were burning. They had embarrassed the people on earth!
The two handsome men, who had been embarrassed because of their ignorance, felt ashamed and no longer dared to look around, lest the other party misunderstood that they were provoking due to their direct gaze.
It was already past noon, and the sun was shining warmly on the ground. There were people and humanoid beasts walking around in a hurry, and there were also people or many demonic beasts squatting in animal-like bodies on the stalls or laying down on a chair in front of the shop, basking in the sun.
Young Master Xuan: "..." If they didn't know that they were in the world of spiritual practice, they would have thought they were walking on the streets of a Southeast Asian country where the pace of life was slow.
Most of the shops and street vendors in the market do not shout. They just hang banners saying what they are buying and what they are selling.
The same is true for ships moored in the harbor. Poles are erected on the ship and cloth flags are hung to indicate the types of items for sale or purchase. If you want to buy or sell, you can go on board to talk.
The transactions on the ship are basically large orders, and the amount of spiritual stones traded is tens of thousands. Small transactions are all done through shops or individual transactions at street stalls.
The street stalls are placed in front of the shops. As long as the stall owners do not block other people's doorways and cover up the owner's sign, the shopkeepers will not argue.
In the seaport, the theme of free economic system and harmonious common development is presented, and inclusiveness, autonomy and freedom are also fully reflected.
The environment of the seaport is very relaxing. Therefore, the Xianrenwang Seaport in the west of the Northern Continent is the most famous free trade port in the Yunlan Spiritual World. Seaports in other parts of the mainland cannot imitate it even if they want to.
The buildings in Fangshi are generally of the courtyard type with two entrances. The houses facing the street in the outer courtyard are shops, and the second courtyard is used for living or warehouses. In some areas, the houses are of three or four entrances.
No matter how many times you enter, the side facing the street is full of shops. The owners of some shops are doing seasonal business. They are closed in the off-season and open in the peak season.
There are also shop owners who have gone out to collect goods and have not returned, so they are temporarily closed.
On the streets of Fangshi, you can see shops or vendors doing business with various ethnic groups everywhere, greeting and sending people back and forth, and the atmosphere is good. Even if there are some who are red-faced or expressing their own opinions, they will not get into fights.
Le Xiaololi happily went shopping with three handsome men to learn about the market conditions.
Because of the freedom of the seaport, there is no need to inquire deliberately. You can hear the selling prices and purchase prices of certain items while walking on the street. It is truly a no-brainer.
Young Master Xuan Shaoyan finally understood why little Lolita has a special liking for pistachio-like fruit shells. Not only are they delicious, they are also a best-seller!
The purchase price of white fruit shells at the seaport is one spiritual stone per kilogram. After processing, for example, if fried and sold on the street, it will cost two spiritual stones per kilogram. In restaurants, it is more expensive, five spiritual stones per plate.
It is said that in inland areas far away from the ocean, there is no processing of fruit shells. As the distance from the ocean gets further and further, the price becomes more and more expensive, and the most expensive one can sell for fifty yuan of spiritual stones per pound.
It’s simply huge profits!
Xuan Shaoyan calculated the number of fruit shells shared by them and the three Nascent Soul monsters, and his heart beat faster. They still had about two million kilograms of fruit shells in stock!
Each of them has a portion in his hand, which is nearly one million catties.
So, they... are actually all small rich people?
Instantly, the two young men felt that what they were carrying in their pockets was not fruit shells, but white spirit stones, and they couldn't help but straighten their waists.
They didn't dare to calculate for the little Loli how many fruit shells she had and how many spiritual stones she could exchange for them. They were afraid that the calculated results would scare them out.
Classmate Le Xiao secretly collected price information of various items, bought a lot of roasted seeds and nuts, and tasted them while walking with three handsome men.
The shops or vendors at the seaport are all monks, and at least they have the cultivation level of the middle stage of Qi refining. Monks in the early stage of Qi refining are not willing to work in the seaport, and they are not accepted.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If there are mortals or beasts, they must be passing through or in transit.
Because they are all monks, the food and ingredients sold in restaurants, restaurants or on the streets have a certain spiritual energy, otherwise no one would buy it.
Most of the roasted seeds and nuts are made from seashells and plant fruits, and are made with spiritual plants. They are full of color and taste.
Little Lolita and Xuan Shaoyan ate with gusto, while Yan Zhen was in a complicated mood. Brother Xuan himself was a master of spiritual meals, and the spiritual meals he made were full of spiritual energy and delicious. He still cared about street snacks?
Even more incredible is the little fairy. He has never eaten the spiritual meal made by the little fairy, but he got a few fruit shells fried by the little fairy from the monk Yan Xuan. He personally feels that the little fairy is very accomplished in the spiritual meal.
, today’s preaching monks can only look back on him.
The little fairy who makes such delicious fruit shells is actually more enthusiastic about the snacks in the market than anyone else, buying more than a dozen or even dozens of them every time.
Yan Zhen didn't understand why the little fairy and the two monks were in such good moods, but secretly felt sorry for the little fairy about the spirit stone.
Le Xiaoxiao students don’t feel sorry for the spiritual stones. Most of the snacks sold in Haigangfang Market are delicious seafood or nuts that are not of the highest quality. The spiritual energy contained in them is not particularly strong and can be eaten by ordinary people. You can take it back to your hometown to give your family a try.
They walked around and observed all the way until it got dark and the group entered the restaurant.
The spiritual meals offered by restaurants are highly priced, and any low-priced monk with a little more money can afford a few spiritual meals. People come and go, and the business is very booming.
The little girl and the three handsome men happened to be sitting at the same table. The waiter was a monk in the early stage of foundation establishment. He could manage ten tables by himself, so he could still manage it.
When you order food at a restaurant, you pay the spiritual stone when you order, and you can leave at any time after eating.
Little Loli ordered fruit shells again, Master Xuan was curious about a first-order seafood called sea pork and ordered one, Master Yan ordered shrimps, and Yan Zhi ordered a first-order spiritual seaweed.
Little Loli ordered a portion from the store and asked the store owner to pack three portions.
After making an appointment for a cup of tea, the dishes were delivered. They were all served in basins with a diameter of more than a foot and a wide portion, and the portions were ample.
After they finished eating, the packaged portions were also delivered, packed in wooden food boxes. The wooden boxes were sealed with spiritual talismans to lock in the spiritual energy and prevent it from escaping.
Food boxes and seals are given free of charge.
The little Loli transferred the packed items from the storage bag to her own storage space, and handed the storage bag and spirit stones to the waiter.
Coming out of the restaurant, night has enveloped the harbor, and stars are twinkling on the sky.
The buildings in the city are clustered together with bright lights, forming a U-shape. Most of the boats parked on the bay also have lights, forming a U-shape.
The lights on the city and the sea complement each other.
The hustle and bustle of the day is gone, and the harbor is quiet and beautiful at night.
Most of the vendors have closed their stalls, and there are only a few vendors with mobile stalls who, in order to save money, have found places to sleep in front of closed or closed shops.
The phenomenon of night camping on the streets is very common in the harbor, and no one cares about it.
Young Master Xuan Yan also wanted to sleep on the street. Living in an inn was really expensive. One person in an ordinary ten-person guest room would have ten spirit stones. A two-person room in a medium-sized room would cost twenty spirit stones per person. A room in a superior room would cost ten spirit stones.
Fifty spirit stones.
They had a meal at the restaurant, which cost three hundred and thirty spiritual stones, not including the takeaway portion.
Going out is a waste of money.
What should two handsome guys do if they want to live on the street? Of course we will help them!
Le Xiaololi had no psychological burden, so she and the handsome guys found a roof in front of a shop that was closed during the day and took up space to make camp.
With a place to rest, I stuffed the wishful house into my sleeves, stuffed the white sounds, eagle sounds, and vine fruits into my sleeves, and gave them the packed food so that they could taste it slowly.
The three humanoid beasts hid in the Ruyi room, had a good meal, wiped their mouths, and then quietly returned to hide in the sleeves of the adult and the two male cultivators.
The little fairy wants to experience life, so Yan Zhen also sacrifices his life to accompany the gentleman and sleep on the street with him.
The vendors who slept on the eaves got up at dawn, first spread the floor and took up space for their stalls, and then went to wash themselves and eat the dry food they had prepared.
The little Lolita and her group went to a restaurant to have breakfast and then go shopping.
The four of them went shopping during the day and slept outdoors at night. They spent several days measuring the U-shaped Haigangfang City with their feet, and then the little Loli started purchasing mode.
When she goes shopping, she always boards ships with banners hanging for sale, trading low-quality seafood, monster meat, beast meat, low-level spiritual plants and various ores, and sometimes she also buys some fruit shells.
Because Little Loli has a strong purchasing power, the merchant ship owners who have done business with her feel that doing business with her is the most cost-effective and easiest after completing the transaction. They exchange news, and many casual cultivators and ship owners also bring goods to her.
