I studied abroad in modern times

Zheng Fa followed Sister Yuan to visit the market, mainly to get familiar with the duties of the market manager.

Sister Yuan introduced as she walked:

"The market we are talking about is actually divided into three parts to be more precise - the square where the big shops are located, the market where the small shops are located, and the market composed of those small stalls."

"Our most important task is to maintain order in these three places. The first is to be careful not to bully the market. The second is to prevent some rogues or high-level cultivators from bullying those shopkeepers."

Sister Yuan really knows all about these.

"Those big shops don't need to be managed. They are all opened by the big sects of the Hundred Immortals Alliance. Almost no one dares to make trouble." Sister Yuan said: "Well, no matter how expensive the things they sell are, we can't manage them."

Zheng Fa was silent.

These big shops not only have backgrounds, but also have scarce spiritual materials.

For Jiushan Sect, they also contribute the most rent.

No one can afford to provoke the God of Wealth with a big fist, and no one wants to provoke him.

"But we need to be careful about this market."

"The shops in the market are generally very honest. Most of them are opened by some immortals. Only they have the capital. These people may not be good, but they are definitely afraid of trouble from Senior Sister Zhang."

"But those stalls are hard to say. There are all kinds of people. This is also the most difficult to manage and there are the most disputes."

"Most of my disciples will patrol this market." Senior Sister Yuan said: "By the way, when will you meet them?"

Zheng Fa thought for a while and said: "Wait a few days."

It is right to meet these disciples on duty in the market, but he can also foresee that this matter is not so simple.

Not only does he have a low cultivation level, but he also has little experience. He has only been in the sect for two months.

Even if there is Senior Sister Zhang's support behind him, it will not be smooth sailing to manage such a large market.

Let's not talk about others, just talk about Senior Sister Zhang.

Is her talent not good?

That is the fastest foundation in the Hundred Immortals Alliance, and the recognized first in the way of talismans before Zheng Fa.

Isn't her background strong?

His master is a Yuanying Zhenren.

But from what Senior Sister Zhang said, Zheng Fa could understand that she had experienced many disputes and doubts along the way.

Background and talent cannot solve everything in Xianmen.

"Okay! Let's set it in half a month!" Senior Sister Yuan seemed to see something and patted his arm: "It's okay, Senior Sister, I will help you!"

Zheng Fa bowed to Senior Sister Yuan to thank her.

After Senior Sister Yuan introduced Zheng Fa, she pulled his arm and ran around in the market full of stalls.

"Come on, come on!"

"Senior Sister?"

"Don't look at these shops. There are so many, but there are only a few that really have good things!"

Zheng Fa couldn't help but look forward to it. He had been in Jiushan Sect for so long, and he had hardly spent money here - just because he was afraid of making mistakes and stepping on a pit.

Senior Sister Yuan was familiar with the place at first glance. Maybe she could really introduce some reliable shops to him, so that it would be convenient for him to buy magic weapons and spiritual materials in the future.

"This meat pie is a family tradition!" Sister Yuan pointed to a stall and said, "The seasoning is secret, and the meat is rich and oily!"

"...Is this the good stuff you mentioned, Sister?"

"Of course, go a hundred steps forward, then turn right and the third stall is a delicious pastry stall... I'll tell you a secret, Sister Zhang loves their sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most!"

"..."

"By the way, there is also a meat skewers stall at the entrance of the market, which has been in business for more than ten years and has a very good reputation!" Sister Yuan said, looking at Zheng Fa proudly: "I've told you all the treasure shops I've found out over the years!"

"...Thank you, Sister." Zheng Fa thanked her with difficulty.

"It's okay, I promised Sister Zhang to teach you well!" Sister Yuan patted her chest, and then quietly approached Zheng Fa's ear and whispered, "There is a grain store in the market, and the spiritual grain inside is especially delicious! No one else knows about this, only I buy it!"

She looked earnest, asking others not to tell her.

"Sister... Is it possible that others don't buy it because the taste of ordinary people is different from yours?"

Thinking of Sister Yuan's true form, Zheng Fa was silent for a while and asked.

...

Thirteen days later.

Zheng Fa's courtyard.

He sat cross-legged on the futon, holding a green jade bottle in his right hand.

He pointed the bottle mouth to the palm of his left hand, and a Ningyuan Pill rolled into his hand.

This is what he spent all his fortune to buy today - including the wages given by Sister Yuan, and the income from selling talismans these days.

If he hadn't advanced to the second level of Qi training and could draw two more talismans every day, he might not have saved up enough twenty spirit stones.

This is why he asked Sister Yuan to wait a few more days before introducing him to the disciples of the market - he wanted to condense the second Yuan Fu first.

The first Yuan Fu he chose was the Zhengli Wuying Fu, mainly to ensure his safety in modern times.

But the Zhengli Wuying Fu is not very useful in the Xuanwei Realm.

This time, Zheng Fa's goal is very clear - find a powerful one, and it would be best if the effect is cooler.

Senior Sister Zhang said that he is a Xuan-grade Talisman Master, which is equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Stage, but Zheng Fa does not think so.

The main thing is that anyone can buy talismans, so can you say you are in the Foundation Establishment Stage if you have a Xuan-grade Talisman?

I'm afraid these Fangshi disciples don't recognize it - everyone envies the krypton gold warriors, but on the other hand, it is inevitable that some people will look down on them.

But the "Talisman Foundation Building Method" is different. It can allow Zheng Fa to turn talismans into spells.

Being able to cast foundation building spells instantly, it is not wrong to say that he is half a foundation building period.

According to the classification of Senior Sister Zhang, the upright shadowless talisman belongs to the feminine and earth element.

Earth produces gold, so the talisman that Zheng Fa has to choose must be feminine and metal.

There are not many options.

Senior Sister Zhang has only tried a small number of talismans, and Zheng Fa can only condense the Yuan talisman - according to Senior Sister Zhang, the talisman is too complicated, and one Ningyuan Pill is not enough.

Among these optional Yuan talismans, the best choice he can find is the Frost Blade Talisman.

This talisman is not only powerful and lethal.

It can also freeze the enemy's body and slow down the opponent's movements.

It is also very popular among talisman masters.

Zheng Fa raised his head and swallowed the Ningyuan Pill into his throat, mobilizing the spiritual power in his body with ease, and condensed it into the Yuan talisman pattern of the Frost Blade Talisman in his Dantian.

With his soul strength and the fact that it was not the first time for him to condense the Yuan Fu, this was not difficult for him.

But when condensing the Frost Blade Fu, he also found that the medicinal power of this Condensing Yuan Pill seemed to be one or two points weaker than the last time.

This is probably the drug resistance mentioned by Senior Sister Zhang in "Talisman Foundation Building Method".

After the Frost Blade Fu was condensed, it fell directly next to the upright Shadowless Fu. The two were like a natural match, and they formed a somewhat complicated pattern together.

Zheng Fa tried it. After condensing the Frost Blade Fu, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy during cultivation was faster.

…

Fangshi.

Six disciples in green clothes patrolled in the aisle left by the stalls.

The other five surrounded a senior brother who looked a little older, and it seemed that this person was the leader.

The vendors on both sides looked at these people with awe, and when they passed by, even the sound of hawking was a little quieter.

It can be seen that these people are usually in the market.

But this time, these people didn't want to show off. They walked and whispered to each other.

"Have you heard about that Zheng Fa?"

"It's been spread a long time ago. We have to let him take charge of this market."

"He's only in the second level of Qi training and has only been in the business for two months. Senior Sister Zhang really loves him..."

The three of them were talking about Zheng Fa's taking over the market.

Senior Sister Zhang didn't intend to hide this from others. Not to mention these well-informed disciples in the market, even some people in the shops in the market have heard about it.

"...If you ask me, he has a good talent for talismans, but it's a bit too much to promote him like this." A short and strong disciple said in a muffled voice.

"This is the appointment by Senior Sister Zhang."

"Is Senior Sister Zhang always right?" The disciple said indignantly: "Let's not talk about anything else. Who can accept a second-level Qi training?"

"If there is a riot in the market, can he calm the situation?"

"He is a talent in the art of talismans, so he should draw talismans well. But the market cannot be managed by drawing a few talismans. He has just joined the sect for two months and has not even figured out the Nine Mountains Sect. Can he manage the market well?"

"..." The other people looked at each other and felt that what this person said made sense.

"According to you, who is the best person to manage it? Do you want to manage it?"

The short and strong disciple looked at the senior brother among them who had been silent and said: "If it is Senior Sister Yuan who has been in charge all the time, it will be fine. If it is not Senior Sister Yuan, I think Senior Brother Yang is the best."

The others were stunned and looked at Senior Brother Yang.

"Brother Yang is in the late stage of foundation building, and he has connections in Jiushan Sect for decades, and has worked in the market for many years. Is he much better than Zheng Fa?"

The other people were also moved.

On the one hand, they certainly felt that what this person said made sense.

But on the other hand, they had a good relationship with Brother Yang, and if Brother Yang had a future, they would certainly benefit from it.

Brother Yang waved his hand: "I have no desire for power. Besides, Sister Zhang has spoken, and we can only obey her orders."

"Brother Yang, the manager of the market has more spiritual stones flowing through his hands every month than we have seen in our lifetime." The short and strong disciple instigated.

Brother Yang was silent for a while, looked at him and said: "What you said makes sense, so, when you see Zheng Fa in two days, you tell him this - don't mention my name, I support you to be the manager of this market!"

"...How dare I oppose Sister Zhang?"

"I dare?" Brother Yang sneered.

The others didn't know what to say.

Among the disciples of the market, there are quite a few who have opinions about Zheng Fa's management of the market, or rather, the majority.

The reasons are very complicated.

As an old disciple, being suppressed by a new disciple of the second level of Qi training is of course indignant.

On the other hand, it is also a lack of trust in Zheng Fa's ability.

But more of it is actually interests, they all want to replace her - this position represents too many spiritual stones.

But no one dares to openly oppose Senior Sister Zhang, and they all hope that someone will come forward.

"Anyway, I am not convinced, and Zheng Fa is too young." The short and strong disciple gritted his teeth and said.

Others were also silent. Zheng Fa's youth meant a fact that was very unfavorable to them - he could sit in the position of the market manager for a long time, leaving no chance for others. If it was Senior Sister Yuan, they certainly wouldn't dare to have any opinions, but Zheng Fa's cultivation was low.

"Why not go to Senior Sister Yuan and let Senior Sister Yuan come forward!" Seeing that everyone was silent, the short and strong disciple gritted his teeth.

"Hmm?" Senior Brother Yang raised his head and looked at this person.

"Sister Yuan cares most about the position of manager of this market." The disciple analyzed: "Now Sister Zhang wants this Junior Brother Zheng to be in charge of this market. Isn't Sister Yuan the most angry?"

"Why do I hear that Sister Yuan and Zheng Fa have a good relationship?"

"Do you believe it?" The short and strong disciple retorted: "With such a big profit, even a couple can turn against each other!"

"What's more, if they really have a good relationship, why don't they just give the position to Zheng Fa?" The more he talked, the more he felt that he was right: "Is Zheng Fa stupid? Does he want another sister above him?"

"What do you mean?"

"Sister Yuan is reluctant to give up this position, and Sister Zhang can't be too partial to Zheng Fa, so she can only compromise like this. In the future, these two people will have a fight, and only when they fight will we have a chance."

The short and strong junior brother raised his chin, with a face full of wisdom, and he almost took a fan and waved it in front of his chest.
