Wet viviparity

Chapter 192 War Preparation, Summoned
"How was the conversation?"

Behind the half-open diamond-shaped window lattice, a young man dressed as a scholar was writing furiously. His messy hair was faintly wet with sweat, revealing the scholar's inner unrest.

Outside the window, two middle-aged Taoist priests looked at each other after hearing the question and said, "Fang Zhongri Youshen Zhu Wen wants 50% of the business."

"Snapped!"

There was a slight sound, and it turned out that the young scholar's pen was broken by his grip, leaving a large ink stain on the scroll, covering up the poem written by the young man.

Taking the silk handkerchief brought by the servant, the scholar wiped his palms and said, "Although the price is high and the money is paid on the spot, this Taoist Zhu wants 50% right away. Is it too much?

It seems that he is now full of confidence, and is sure that our Qian family dare not touch him."

Erdao outside the window didn't dare to say much. Their affairs were extremely secretive, and the Qian family still hadn't figured out where the problem occurred.

"The mountain has urged our Qian family to organize the local Dan Fu workshops in Lanyin Fang and let them form a joint workshop so that we can sign a sales contract for large and small Dan Fu.

Although the small pill in this small pill micro-talisman is just an ordinary pill such as the Bigu Pill, the Blood-Removing Pill, the Miasma-Breaking and Poison-Sweeping Pill, and the micro-talisman is just an ordinary talisman such as the Armor Horse Talisman, the Soul-Calming Talisman, and the Nectar Talisman.

Although the profit is small, fortunately the mountain is buying in large quantities, preparing for the second battle, so the profit is considerable."

"This move by the mountain is also to test the supply capacity of the local market."

One of the two people outside the window said this abruptly, which made the scholar slightly stunned, and then smiled and said: "Yes, supply capacity, so our Qian family came and brought the latest and best furnace tripods on Peak Yi, as well as a group of skilled alchemy and talisman immortal masters trained on our clan peak."

He placed emphasis on the word "skilled".

Alchemy and talisman making are Taoist arts that require talent and wealth, and are also the most popular Taoist arts on the mountain. It is difficult to associate them with words such as "a batch" and "skilled", which would make them seem cheap.

This group of "Alchemy Masters" of the Qian family received targeted training. They might not understand the principles of elixirs and talismans, but they were able to make small elixirs and micro talismans with low thresholds.

The scholar paused for a moment, and the servant boy replaced the scroll on the desk and selected a new brush from the ruby ​​coral pen holder. The scholar picked up the brush and continued speaking.

"We bought the bamboo forest for making yellow paper, the cinnabar mountain for making cinnabar, and the animal garden for collecting hair for making talisman pens, all for the purpose of better serving the mountain.

Otherwise, even if the local markets were integrated together and a general market alliance was established as required by the mountain, they would not be able to handle the large orders from the mountain, so my Qian family's help is needed.

Who of them can understand my painstaking efforts? They just think that I am transferring public funds from one hand to the other, putting them into my own private pockets."

After the scholar finished his chattering, the second Taoist outside the window spoke again, "There are several real people on the mountain who are considering cooperating with Zhenling and Huangting to rent the "Five Lakes and Four Seas Bottle" of Zhenling Sect and the "Ruyi Qiankun Bag" of Huangting Palace.

These two treasures have the ability to "contain the Sumeru Mountain in a mustard seed". When used with the "Nine Palaces Treasure Bowl" on the mountain, the elixir can be transported directly from the mountain in batches without having to purchase it locally in Lanyinfang."

"Fool!"

The flowing strokes of the scholar's pen did not stop, but a heavy sound came out of his mouth.

"Have these people turned their heads into wood? Could it be that the Lord Lu in the upper mansion has not considered such a method?

Once the second battle begins, will the Yunyu Temple in Luoyin Lake be peaceful? !

If they block the lake and cut off the Yin and Yang roads between Taiping Mountain and Lan Yin Fang, even if they have three kinds of storage treasures to transport war resources in batches, it will not be as safe as Lan Yin Fang's production workshop behind the front line of the battle."

On the long scroll, the writer wrote more and more hurriedly and spoke faster and faster.

"These real people, their talents are probably all in cultivation, yet they still want to take power in the mountain, win over Dao merchants like us, and fight against the Dao Lord Lu in the upper mansion."

The second Taoist outside the window couldn't help but muffled and said: "Second Master, that Lu Daojun really oppressed us Dao merchants too much and regarded us as termites. If he became the headmaster, I'm afraid we would..."

The ink-soaked wolf hair of the brush paused, and another piece of good calligraphy was ruined. The scholar subconsciously avoided the topic. "One percent, go and tell Zhu Wen that the Qian family will only give him one percent profit at most. This one percent alone is enough for him to make a living."

Xiaoxishan, wild temple.

Shu Si, carrying his sword on his back and rubbing his beard, said, "There's news from the Sun God. He's giving us a 10% profit."

Qian Geng sat on the messy altar and looked at a jungle through the broken temple roof.

The temple tower in the jungle stood there like a burnt log. That was the first action he and Shu Si took when they came here. They lured and killed the monk Fawen who came to the Tonghua Temple under the pretext of hosting a banquet.

He did not feel proud of this action, and he estimated that the rat spirit in the temple had the same idea.

A mere Dharma knowledge is not considered a great achievement. Only the Qian family's shady business in this area is a real great achievement for that master.

As long as they can successfully tear off a piece of meat, the master and his senior brother won't have to worry about the resources for practice in the next few years. However, this matter is mainly handled by the rat spirit.

He noticed the magic sword on Shu Si's back. It was one of the many rewards given on the mountain by the master after his Taoist disciples were assessed. It was worth about one thousand coins on the market.

The valuation of one thousand is not because this magic sword is better than ordinary magic weapons, but because of its significance. Only by passing the Taoist assessment on the mountain can one obtain such a magic sword.

The fact that Shu Si was rewarded with this magic sword shows his status in the master's heart.

Qian Geng shook his legs and said indifferently, "A mere 10% is not enough for my fellow apprentices to share."

"As long as we drag it on, they won't be able to hold out for long and will even raise the price." Shu Si said confidently.

This is the truth, but the Shang Qian family is so powerful and deeply rooted that they will not give up their profits easily. It will take at least several rounds of tug-of-war, or even secret fights.

Qian Geng felt that the master would not have the patience for this. He was an ambitious man and would not allow his time to be wasted on such mundane affairs.

"It seems that the magic sword is not so easy to hold."

Qian Geng thought about this and felt a little gloating.

Seeing the subtle expression on Qian Geng's face, Shu Si knew what he was thinking and said, "During the delay, I will have in-depth contact with Mr. Qian Er and make him realize as soon as possible that the Sun Tour Officer and the Insect Officer are the inevitable parts of his business, so as to put an end to the meaningless temptation."

Although this statement is simple, it definitely tests a person's ability, all-round ability. Qian Geng believes that if Shu Si can handle this matter on his own, he is definitely worth cultivating.

"Oh, right!" Shu Si talked about another matter, saying, "The master has chosen a place for his retreat. He ordered you to go see him. Remember to take those five-sided bags with you."

Qian Geng looked at the several bulging bags on an old high stool. He couldn't think of anything that could fill them up.

When Qian Geng picked up a few bags, he saw that Shu Si did not make any other moves, but a wisp of evil wind was already coming out of his body, blowing the dust in the temple into a mess. He was very surprised and said, "Don't let me go in blindfolded this time."

The place for retreat was very secluded. Qian Geng had been there once, blinded by Shu Si, and was only allowed to stand in a place that looked like the bottom of a well.

As for why he was blinded, he privately guessed that he was not like Shu Si, and was subject to a "restriction" that led to him being treated like this. It would be a lie to say that he was not heartbroken, but he could understand it.

Many people know that if you don't keep things secret, you will lose yourself, and if you don't keep people secret, you will lose your ministers, but how many people can really keep things secret and keep people secret?

Obviously, the master was such a person. Even though this move might disappoint Qian Geng, he still did it because he believed that this was definitely a great thing.

"Let's go!"

Shu Si looked at Qian Geng deeply, as if to say that this was destined to be no ordinary summons for Qian Geng.

Qian Geng actually became nervous. Not having his Yin body's eyes covered meant that he would be restricted. He was sure that the master would not force it, so how could he be sure that he would be willing to be restricted?
