Chapter 30: two years
In the past two months, what Wang Hong didn't expect was that his spirit wine became famous. At first, the neighbors around used the spiritual wine he gave away, and it seemed to be okay.
After knowing that the price is only ten spirit stones, I feel that it is not okay to describe it, it is simply great. The news quickly spread around, attracting many people to line up to buy.
The main effect of the spirit wine is to quickly replenish mana, especially in battle, the spiritual power is consumed very quickly, and having items that can quickly replenish mana is equivalent to an extra life. This bottle can at least allow monks in the mid-stage of Qi training to replenish their mana.
Spirit wine with the same effect is sold by taels, and one tael costs about ten spirit stones.
When Wang Hong found out that the situation was wrong, he raised the price to 20 Lingshi a bottle. He also sneaked to the mortal market to buy tens of thousands of catties of spirits, and soaked it with ginseng and ganoderma lucidum.
Wang Hong didn't know why the medicinal wine he brewed had such a good effect. Maybe it's because of the special environment of the space and the rich aura; maybe it's because the storage time is long enough; maybe it's both.
The price increase to 20 still did not reduce everyone's enthusiasm for buying it. In the end, there was no choice but to limit the purchase, and each person could only buy one bottle per day.
And released the news that there are not many stocks of this spirit wine, and the price will increase in a year. Now there are more people queuing up to buy, and a lot of other items in the store are also sold.
After dealing with these matters, Wang Hong devoted himself to practice and study again.
Two years later…
Wang Hong squatted in front of the tall and thin man's bookstall, flipped through his books, and found that there were no more books he was interested in. In the past two years, Wang Hong bought all the books related to cultivating immortals from this booth and read them over and over.
Picking up a book about cultivation and gossip news, flipping through it randomly, he said, "I'm talking shit, why are you selling these books all over the place? You don't even get any fresh ones."
The tall, thin man smiled with a sly eyebrow and said, "There is really a copy. This is my family's ancestral family, and it is my old man's treasure."
After finishing speaking, he furtively took out a book from under the booth and handed it to Wang Hong. The binding of the whole book is very simple and a little yellow. The edges of the pages are torn. Wang Hong opened the cover, and a few clear characters came into view, "Newly Edited Erotic Pictures". Wang Hong flipped through a few pages, his face turned red immediately, and he glanced around, seeing that no one noticed, he hurriedly returned it to him. The tall and thin man laughed for a while.
Having been with the tall and thin guy for a long time, he knew that this guy was nicknamed Ma Gan, but as for his real name, he had never heard of it before, and Wang Hong didn't know either. He is a child of a small Xiuxian family, and now he has reached the sixth level of Qi training.
The small family does not have many resources, and each person can only get one Qi Gathering Pill and two Lingshi per month. Even this treatment made many casual cultivators envious.
"Didn't you always want to learn alchemy? Tonight at the Wanjia preaching hall, senior Zhuji personally explained the way of alchemy. You only need ten spirit stones. Are you going?" Ma Gan hid the **** map asked later.
In Qingxu Immortal City, there are countless big and small immortal cultivating families, and the bigger families have their own preaching halls, which are dedicated to teaching and helping their own children.
I don't know when they started, they allowed casual practitioners to listen and collect spirit stones. Then it gradually developed into a business that earned a lot of Lingshi. There are as many casual cultivators in the city as a cow's hair, and no one teaches them. They all rely on their own groping, which is naturally extremely difficult. As long as there is a chance to listen to the teachings of the seniors, they will naturally be willing to take out the spirit stones.
"Of course I'm going. Are you going? Let's go together?" Wang Hong invited. In the past year, Wang Hong has never failed in any content about alchemy, talisman making, and spell training.
"Of course I... don't go! Our family already has an alchemist. Without the support of the family, I can't afford to squander it. Unlike a small rich man like you, who can spend money like water."
Wang Hong immediately changed into a frowning expression and said: "It's not like you don't know that if I buy and sell a spiritual grass to get rid of the purchase cost, I can earn the price difference of two spiritual stones, which is considered good luck. Look at my room. How many elixir plants can a half-dead shop sell in a day? You still have at least one Qi Gathering Pill every month, and I haven’t even seen anything like a Qi Gathering Pill until now.”
Wang Hong was crying poor, but at the same time he was secretly happy: "I am a rich man in the Qi training period, but I won't tell you. I just like night walks in brocade clothes." He really didn't dare to show his wealth. Although the city is safe, he doesn't never leave the city.
In the past two years, the sales of spirit wine have been booming, and the light spirit wine alone has brought Wang Hong a direct income of 40,000 to 50,000 spirit stones. It's a pity that the original spirit wine has been sold out, and the newly made spirit wine may not be very old, so I plan to keep it for another year or two before selling it.
In addition, selling elixir also earned tens of thousands of spiritual stones. The previously mutated ginseng has been mutated, and it is really red blood ginseng. Wang Hong planted these red blood ginseng separately.
Of the rest of the unmutated ginseng, Wang Hong only kept a few old ones, and pulled out all the rest to sell. Wang Hong speculated that Zizhi, Baiyuzhi, and sealwort and other elixir might also mutate in the future.
Calculated over the past two years, he has earned a total of more than 100,000 spirit stones, which is definitely a rich man among Qi training monks. Wang Hong still kept a low profile and made a fortune in silence.
While frantically earning spirit stones, his cultivation base has not dropped, and he has reached the peak of the third level of Qi training, and he has also practiced some very basic spells. Such as the technique of looking at the air, controlling the wind, controlling objects, etc.
Most of the spirit stones earned by Wang Hong were eaten by space. Now the land area of the space has expanded to 80% of land.
Wang Hong used a quarter of the land to grow the spiritual herbs needed for Qi Gathering Pill, sold some of it, and left 200 furnaces of materials. He planned to learn alchemy, so naturally he needed a lot of materials for practice.
In addition to space, it also cost him a lot of spirit stones to train the forty-five soldiers under him. After all, everyone's qualifications are too poor, or even have no qualifications, so the resources spent will naturally increase exponentially.
Since he announced the reward system, everyone has raised a lot of opinions.
Currently the most mature solution is to transform internal energy into spiritual energy by using the Immortal Cultivation Technique.
Several people are already practicing according to this method. First, they cultivate their internal strength according to the inner strength method, and then transform it into spiritual power, and use the immortal cultivation method to cultivate their spiritual power.
It's just that the efficiency of doing this is extremely slow. Currently, soldiers who practice this method are only at the first level of Qi training.
Anyway, the road is made by people, maybe we can find a better way in the future, maybe.
Maybe it would be easier for Wang Hong to recruit another group of casual cultivators with spiritual roots, but the loyalty is incomparable. These soldiers are life and death friends on the battlefield. I don't know how long it will take for foreign recruits to formally integrate.
Besides, since they trusted him and entrusted their lives to him on the battlefield, how could he, Wang Hong, betray his promise and abandon them so easily.
Even if they can't practice and there is no way out ahead, Wang Hong will let them live a life without worrying about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
The Wan family is in the street not far from Fang City. There are several foundation-building monks in the clan, and the Wan family has three alchemists and an elixir shop. It can be regarded as the uppermost power in Qingxu City.
Wang Hong handed over ten spirit stones to the monk guarding the door, and then stepped into the preaching hall, where Wang Hong has been here several times.
There were already twenty or thirty people sitting around the hall, so Wang Hong found a futon and sat down.
There are more than ten seats vacant in the middle, and no one dares to sit there. They are specially reserved for the children of the Wan family.
After a while, a group of young people came in, all of them were well-dressed, and the first was dressed in white. They were slender, fair-skinned, and handsome, but they liked to look at the sky with their eyes and people with their nostrils. This person is Wanda, the legitimate son of the Wan family.
Afterwards, a few casual cultivators came one after another, and then a bell rang, and the originally noisy hall fell silent in an instant.
A very elegant middle-aged man slowly walked out from the back hall, and everyone saluted together.
The elegant man nodded slightly as a return of courtesy, then swung his sleeves and sat down on the main seat.
