Chapter 356: Business Is Booming, Professionals
Two months later, Tianxing City, Butian Street.
Since the fall of the Qing'an Commercial Alliance, one of the four major merchant alliances, not only the large number of industries and affiliated forces under its name have been divided up, but the Qing'an Building located in the center of Butian Street has not been able to be saved.
Nowadays, Qing'an Building is occupied by Haiyun Merchant Alliance, one of the four new major merchant alliances. This merchant alliance is also one of the old large-scale merchant alliances. Its pillar industry is several kinds of spiritual fluids that can treat injuries and restore spiritual power.
However, it remains to be seen whether the Haiyun Merchant Alliance can hold on to this position in the future.
The four major business alliances have a special status. They are business organizations chartered by the Star Palace. They have countless conveniences and benefits, including free business rights on the thirty-six star islands, dedicated ship slots at the port, reduction and exemption of shop rents, and 17 other preferential treatments.
This is also the reason why countless large-scale business organizations second only to the four major business alliances are flocking to this location.
However, Star Palace has long had a rule not to interfere with the development of the major business alliances, as long as the four major business alliances can pay taxes and supplies on time and occasionally complete Star Palace's material collection tasks.
This was also the reason why Xing Gong didn't take action after the Qing'an Merchant Alliance was targeted by the old demon Xue Sha.
Zhenling Pavilion.
The clerks in the store are receiving customers coming and going. Judging from the costumes of the customers, there are basically no casual repairs.
In fact, it is understandable that the main product of Zhenling Pavilion is the Spirit Feeding Pill, which is aimed at customers who own spirit beasts. Those who can raise spirit beasts are not too poor.
A counter somewhere on the first floor.
"Out of stock? Doesn't your store specialize in selling spirit-feeding pills? Do you think I can't afford spirit stones?"
A middle-aged monk with a rich appearance shouted loudly, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
If it were any other store, he would have blurted out the unpleasant words, but thinking that the backstage of this store was really notorious, he could only restrain his interest.
The young shopkeeper opposite still greeted him with a smile and replied in a calm tone:
"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me. There are still a lot of low-end Spirit-feeding Pills in stock in the store, but the high-end Spirit-feeding Pills have been reserved for seventy years by more than 20 forces including Xing Palace, the Four Major Merchant Alliance, and Wanfa Sect."
"These forces have paid a 50% deposit in advance, and the store will squeeze out a hundred high-grade spirit-feeding pills for sale every month, but this month's ones have been sold out."
"Fellow Taoist, you may wish to take a look at the latest spirit beast eggs and spirit beast cubs sold by our Zhenling Pavilion. It is also a good choice to buy them for younger generations in the family to cultivate as protective spirit beasts from an early age."
The middle-aged monk opened his mouth, but in the end no word came out.
He realized that there were some ways to earn spiritual stones that were beyond the reach of an elder from the Danjie family like him.
"Then let's take a look. The shopkeeper will lead the way."
In desperation, he followed the young shopkeeper to the lobby on the second floor, thinking that he could not go all the way here for nothing.
The middle-aged monk entered the second floor and saw three light shields inside. When he saw what was inside clearly, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Water Deer, Purple Lightning Eagle, and Golden-tailed Scorpion actually have such precious spiritual pets for sale. Your Zhenling Pavilion really has a profound foundation." The middle-aged monk couldn't help but sigh.
The young shopkeeper is used to the customers' reactions.
As the third disciple of Lan Junyan and a true disciple of the sect, he suddenly received an order from the sect to go to a certain place to complete a task. The specific task was not informed.
As a result, he was taken to Chaos Star Sea a few years ago.
However, he had no regrets at all, only rejoicing, because although the mission was kept strictly confidential and he was told that he would not be able to return to Tiannan within a hundred years, the reward given by the sect was also unusually generous.
He had just entered the late stage of Foundation Establishment, but he had already received a spiritual pill in advance that increased the probability of forming a pill. Such a reward was something he had never dared to imagine before.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face, and he introduced to the guests: "Fellow Taoist is really very knowledgeable. He recognized these three spiritual beasts at a glance. I don't know which one you like best?"
The middle-aged monk touched his chin. Although he said nothing, he looked straight at one of the light masks.
"Fellow Taoist, please come this way." The shopkeeper smiled slightly and extended his hand to guide the guest over.
The shopkeeper came to the photomask and took out a waistband, and stuck it on the photomask along with the waistband.
The light mask opened a hole, and the shopkeeper successfully took out a fist-sized lavender eagle from the formation and introduced:
"The Purple Lightning Eagle is a spiritual beast that can reach the second level when it reaches adulthood. It has powerful combat power and can fly as fast as thunder."
"Now there are only two eagle eggs and this one chick in stock in the store. If you are interested, don't miss it."
The middle-aged monk looked at the young eagle carefully, and thought that his ten-year-old daughter did not have a natal spiritual beast, so he had the idea of purchasing it.
"How many spirit stones?" the middle-aged monk asked while observing.
According to his experience, this kind of spiritual beast is extremely valuable, far more valuable than the best magic weapon. It is estimated that it cannot be beaten with two thousand spirit stones. If it is sent to an auction, the price will be even higher.
As a result, the shopkeeper smiled and quoted a price that surprised him, and soon the two of them completed the transaction, which also included a red spirit-feeding pill.
This scene is happening everywhere in the store, and all kinds of business are very prosperous.
The third floor of Zhenling Pavilion.
Jiang Yun, Lan Junyan, and another alchemy monk wearing a green robe sat down at a square table with a tea set placed on the table.
The male cultivator in green robe looked very young and had the gentle and elegant temperament of a scholar. He was holding a teacup and sipping tea with a satisfied look on his face.
The green-robed monk sighed softly: "Master Lan, I haven't gotten used to it after being called for more than two hundred years.
Brother Lan, I never thought that the spiritual stones in Luan Xinghai would be so profitable.
Brother Lan is also much richer than before. He can brew a pot of this top-quality spiritual tea every ten days and a half. "
After speaking, he took another sip, looking like he was enjoying it.
Lan Junyan and Jiang Yun also smiled slightly when they heard this.
Jiang Yun has always been wealthy and has never been short of this kind of spiritual tea. Leader Lan has also become rich in the past few years, so he looks calm and relaxed.
The green-robed monk's name is Qing Yuan. He is one of the elders of Spirit Beast Mountain and is the number one person in the sect in cultivating and optimizing spirit beasts.
After Tianxing City and Lan Junyan separated six years ago, Jiang Yun took the ancient teleportation array back to the sect, handed over the massive amount of demon pills and demon beast materials he had acquired, and communicated with Patriarch Hao about the situation.
Since Jiang Yun brought back an astonishing amount of demon pills, Spirit Beast Mountain could refine them into a large number of foundation-building pills.
Due to the severe loss of vitality in the Bloody Forbidden Land and the closure of the Luoyan Mountains, the other six sects have no new channels to obtain foundation-building pills. It can be said that one is less than one.
Under the circumstances of one ebb and another, the future of Spirit Beast Mountain is promising.
However, it must be used with caution. After a few years, it was promoted to the outside world as a beast-controlling sect, and it has praised many demon pills over the years.
However, if you want to surpass the Hidden Moon Sect and become the first sect in the country, it does not depend on the foundation-building monks and the elders, but on the number and strength of the Yuanying old monsters.
In this regard, the two ancestors placed their hopes on Jiang Yun, Liu Honge and a few others.
Elder Qingyuan and several of his disciples who were good at cultivating monster beasts, as well as several alchemists, were the second batch of people brought by Jiang Yun when he returned to Chaos Xinghai.
In order to keep it secret, everyone had cast a life-and-death curse, and there were not many of them.
After having this group of people, Lan Junyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least he finally had help in refining the elixir.
Elder Qingyuan also had two brushes, and in just six years, he selected five suitable monsters in the Sea of Stars.
After a large number of adults were captured, systematic cultivation and breeding began.
Fortunately, Jiang Muyan and Liu Honge established their own forces and captured many islands. They chose one of the medium-sized islands and deployed a powerful formation as a breeding base.
Everyone knows that adult monsters cannot recognize their masters and can only be killed and sold for materials, but monster eggs are very valuable.
Monsters are wild and difficult to tame, and those with poor bloodline and intelligence are also low. It is not possible to harvest one egg by locking up two monsters, one male and one female. It is more likely that two monsters will kill each other and beat the other one. Dayton.
If the two monsters recognized their masters from childhood, they might be able to live in harmony and even try to have fun, but the fertility rate would be pitifully low.
Unless they are the lowest level race like the Wind Rabbit, they can reproduce continuously if they have spiritual energy.
There are countless secret methods in Spirit Beast Mountain, including secret methods of aphrodisiac, stimulating birth and reproduction, and secret methods of medicine to replenish vitality after childbirth. There is always one suitable for them.
With the methods of Spirit Beast Mountain, even wild ones can be made to obey!
A few months ago, three kinds of spiritual beasts were sold in the store, and the business was very good.
The spirit beasts selected are not of very strong bloodline. They are characterized by low cultivation cost, good breeding ability, and good combat power and potential.
All in all, the price-performance ratio is very high.
However, because the frequency of reproduction is much higher than that of wild monsters, the potential of the bloodline will be slightly lower. However, the prices sold in stores are also lower than the market price, so the supply is still in short supply.
Most monks can't tell the difference at all, and even if they do, it's not a scam because the price is lower.
Lan Junyan refilled Qingyuan's tea cup and said kindly: "Although the quality of the spirit beast eggs we sell is a bit poor, the prices are affordable and they sell well."
"In addition, it can increase the sect's heritage, and low-level disciples can have more choices when choosing spiritual pets. It is really a great blessing for our sect."
Although Qingyuan is an elder in the Danjie stage, when he heard the praise from Master Lan, his face showed a hint of shyness, and he waved his hand and replied:
"Senior Brother was amazed. Although we have found a suitable race, currently we need to use a lot of very expensive secret medicines to make those wild adult monsters obedient.
According to my estimation, it will take at least three or four generations of breeding to get on the right track. By then, there will be no need for secret medicine and the cost will really come down. This process will take at least sixty or seventy years. "
"I have kept one-fifth of the ones with better qualifications to incubate and reproduce, and the rest with poorer qualifications have been sold to earn some spiritual stones. At present, we can barely break even."
Lan Junyan has been the leader for so many years, so he naturally knows these things.
But you have to take a long-term view in life. It is a great blessing to be able to break even with things like this that increase the sect's heritage.
Some sects do this in order to increase their foundation or refine a powerful sect treasure.
Or take out a lot of materials to strengthen the protective formation.
Or they could open mountains and set up formations to ignite the earth's fire, so that the sect could have a good refining room.
None of these things does not require massive spiritual stone resources. If it can be completed in a hundred years, the sect will be considered prosperous.
It can be said that the sect’s centuries-old heritage has been brought out to benefit the sect for thousands of years to come.
Some corrupt sects that only know how to fight for power will only lose their fortunes, and there is no need to even think about it.
Jiang Yun added from the side: "The number of spirit beast eggs sold this time is a bit large, I have sent people to release the news.
The content is that according to people familiar with the matter, the old demon of the Blood brake reached an agreement with several great transformed demons to exchange a large number of high-grade spiritual feeding pills for the eggs of the other party's affiliated race.
I visited for a while, and no one in the entire Tianxing City doubted that these beast eggs were cultivated by our sect ourselves. "
"The resources of monsters and beasts in the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Chaotic Star Sea are too abundant, and no one has ever studied how to breed them in batches."
"It's like there's a big river flowing in front of your house, and fat fish jump out of the water from time to time. In this case, no one would spend a lot of energy to dig a lake, and then spend countless years studying how to raise fish."
"It's like being in the dark!"
Lan Junyan and Qing Yuan both nodded slightly in agreement.
