Immortality Martial Arts: Starting from the Sword Drawing Technique

"Quite cautious!"

Lin Bei frowned.

He does have the idea of ​​​​taking the money and running away. As for whether he will do that, it needs to be carefully weighed.

In short, it would be best if you can get a little more deposit money.

Unfortunately, the masked man was not fooled at all.

"The maximum deposit is fifty taels!"

The masked man spoke directly, decisively, and in an extremely firm tone.

When Lin Bei heard this, he stopped negotiating with him.

Obviously, the other party is worried about running away, so no matter how much he talks, it will never increase the cost.

"It doesn't matter, fifty taels is just fifty taels."

Lin Bei shrugged.

Then, the masked man took out fifty taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Lin Bei.

Lin Bei counted and found that there was no missing piece, so he quickly put it away.

"Three questions!"

Lin Bei stretched out three fingers.

"First of all, are you also a resident of Changsheng Town?"

The masked man remained silent and did not refute.

Lin Bei continued: "Second question, although there are not many foundries in Changsheng Town, there are several. Why did you come to me?"

This is a question he has wanted to ask for a long time. The reason why he is asking it now is simple. It would be better to first take out the money from the other party and then ask.

Once you have the money, you can just turn your back on them and deny them recognition!

The masked man glanced at him and said seriously: "Because you are the most money-hungry caster among them!"

"The foundry who is most in need of money..."

Lin Bei's mouth twitched.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is indeed the case.

In [Dali Blacksmith Shop], Jiang Dali, the boss, needless to say, all the profits of the entire blacksmith shop belong to him, and he is very wealthy.

As for Guan Lao and the other four famous casters, they are all a bit old and have little ambition to make progress. They have already made a pleasant living by blacksmithing all day long without much pursuit of money.

Looking back at myself, it is obvious that I am already the signature forger of [Dali Blacksmith Shop] and my salary is good.

But he is not satisfied at all. Instead, he goes to the mountains to hunt exotic animals to make money when he has time. He is obviously a master who is extremely short of money!

It's no wonder that the masked man came to find him. People who are not short of money are not willing to take the slightest risk.

Lin Bei didn't know if the masked man had found other casters.

Maybe I found it, but was rejected by the other party.

Maybe he wasn't looking for it at all and just focused on himself at first sight.

I have to admit that for this purpose, I am indeed the most suitable caster to entrust the casting of crossbows.

"Third question!"

Lin Bei looked into the eyes of the masked man with a cold expression: "Since you are also a resident of Changsheng Town, why didn't you ask me to commission customization in Changsheng Town, but followed me to Changyin Mountain?!"

The other party's appearance here is obviously not a coincidence, but a deliberate tracking!

The masked man explained: "Of course it's because it's harder to expose our transactions in Changyin Mountain."

"Is it?"

Lin Bei glanced at him sideways, noncommittal.

"Ahem, everything is for safety."

The masked man coughed, feeling a little guilty.

He would definitely not tell Lin Bei that he had prepared three plans.

Originally, he wanted to subdue Lin Bei in Changyin Mountain.

The first option is to force him to take poison, and then coerce him to cast a crossbow for himself for free.

The second option is to take him away, prepare a place specifically for him, and force him to forge a crossbow for himself.

In short, the first two plans are free and don’t cost a penny.

But the premise is that he has the ability to subdue Lin Bei.

Unfortunately, after witnessing Lin Bei kill three predators with the sixth level of vitality and blood within a few breaths, he felt that he was not completely sure to subdue Lin Bei.

So, he adopted plan three!

Trade directly with Lin Bei and pay him to make a crossbow for you!

Lin Bei naturally knew all this.

But he didn't expose it, after all, the other party did not take action.

A gentleman's deeds have no regard for his heart. If you think about it, you can do it, but if you take action, you must bear the thunderous counterattack!

However, the main thing was that Lin Bei saw that the opponent's cultivation level was above the seventh level of Qi and blood!

This is the highest-level warrior he has come across so far, and he is not sure he can kill him!

Both parties know very well that since neither of them is sure that they can kill the other party, they might as well sit down and have a good talk and make peace and make money!

The deal is done.

After agreeing on the delivery time and location, the masked man turned around and disappeared deep into the woods without staying too long.

"Is my benefactor okay?"

When Lin Bei returned, all three members of the Li family showed concern.

Lin Bei waved his hand and said calmly: "It has been solved. Take the time to deal with the strange beasts. There have been several fights here. There is too much movement. There is no guarantee that other predators will not be attracted."

He kept the topic light and did not reveal anything about making crossbows to a few people.

The three of them were also very sensible and turned around to handle the meat of the exotic beasts.

Since the benefactor didn't want to say it, they didn't force it.

The more you know, the more dangerous you are. It is better to ask less about things that have nothing to do with you. This is the way to survive.

It took several hours for everyone to process the exotic animal meat, and then they carried the loot and headed back to Changsheng Town.

The three strange beasts captured by Lin Bei are all relatively average in strength, and their life levels are not high. They are of great benefit to warriors below the fourth level of Qi and blood, but have no obvious effect on warriors with the fifth level of Qi and blood.

However, despite this, Lin Bei would still leave dozens of kilograms of meat for each beast and eat it slowly.

Thanks to his insistence on eating the meat of exotic animals during this period, even though he had not taken blood ginseng for a long time, his cultivation level was still improving rapidly, and he was now approaching the sixth level of qi and blood.

Lin Bei predicted that even without taking Blood Spirit Ginseng, he would be able to advance to the sixth level of Qi and Blood in at most two months!

…

After returning to Changsheng Town.

Lin Bei and others found a dealer who bought exotic animal meat, and sold most of the exotic animal meat, leaving only a small part for themselves to eat.

This strange beast was sold for a total of seventy taels of silver, making it the most expensive among the three strange beasts.

Lin Bei directly took away almost fifty taels of silver, and the remaining twenty taels were divided between the Li family and his son.

Watch the merchants skillfully process the meat of exotic animals, dehydrate, pickle, dry and preserve it, then bring it to big cities and sell it to family martial arts schools or sects.

These merchants rely on purchasing resources from various places at low prices, bringing them to prosperous cities, and then selling them at high prices to earn the price difference.

Most of the blood spirits involved in exotic animal meat in Changsheng Town were purchased by these merchants, and only a small part is still circulating in the town.

Alien beast meat and blood spirit ginseng are both good things, and they are extremely important cultivation resources for Qi and blood realm warriors.

Naturally, no one wants to circulate it to other places.

But there is no other way. If you can't afford it, you just can't afford it. Most warriors can only spend more time slowly building up their Qi and blood. The meat of blood spirits and alien beasts is reserved for the critical moments when they break through the realm.

In a sense, Changsheng Town is a large-scale processing factory.

The cultivation resources in the hands of the residents of Changsheng Town were ultimately unable to be used by them.

Just like those factories in previous lives that produced fruit mobile phones every day, they still had to live frugally and could not afford a fruit machine.

The rent in Changsheng Town is very expensive, and the daily expenses are also high. Everyone cares about everything in life.

According to Lin Bei, there are almost no locals in Changsheng Town.

The land and real estate are jointly controlled by the mayor's family and several large households. The houses are only for rent but not for sale, and the rent is several times higher than in ordinary towns.

Lin Bei guessed that if this measure could be implemented, it would be inevitable for the government to be involved.

It is precisely because of this that every warrior in Changsheng Town has to pay a lot of energy for the high cost of living.

The inner city is okay, they are all warriors with level 4 or above of Qi and Blood, they have more ways to make money, and the cost of living is not a big burden.

But in the outer city, life is extremely difficult.

Regardless of whether they were in the inner city or the outer city, the money that was exploited all went into the pockets of the top families, enriching their wealth!
