Dear Lingshi

Chapter 61 Bait

"What's going on? Who spread the news that the spiritual tea in the Northern Territory was damaged? Now the merchants in the city are raising the prices to purchase the spiritual tea." The head of the Jiang family asked the other three.

Hearing this, the head of the Wang family said helplessly: "I have already asked, and the people below said that there were too many people near the caravan at the time, and it is estimated that many people heard the news."

Upon hearing this, the Zhang family head said, "Now that things have come to this, if we want to seize this opportunity, we have no choice but to raise the price."

"Don't worry, let's first see how the Northern Territory caravan reacts. If we buy it blindly and the news turns out to be false, we will be doomed." The head of the Jiang family suggested.

At this time, the Patriarch of the Bai Family thought for a while and said, "I think this news may be true. This year, our Tieshan City has had several heavy snowfalls in succession. Their Northern Territory must be even colder."

"It's too early to say anything now. It's safer to do as Brother Jiang says." said the head of the Wang family.

"Okay!" The heads of these families are also old foxes and are very cautious in doing things.

You should know that in the entire Canglan Domain, only Tieshan City in the south and a mountain in the north produce spiritual tea. Now that the spiritual tea in the north is hit by a disaster, the caravans from other places can only buy spiritual tea from Tieshan City. By then, the price of spiritual tea in Tieshan City will surely skyrocket. If you purchase more spiritual tea in advance now, you will definitely be able to earn more spirit stones in the future.

Faced with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the four family heads were able to remain as steady as a rock. This is truly admirable.

Time passed slowly, and it was the next day. At this time, the purchase price of spiritual tea in the city had risen significantly.

The Northern Territory caravan stationed in front of the Wang family's shop was about to sell out their goods.

Watching the number of monks gradually dwindle around the caravan.

Huo Shan took Ling Xuelian's hand and walked towards Wang's shop.

Seeing the two people walk into the store, the waiter Abao was stunned. He naturally knew these two people, they were members of the caravan at the door. Without thinking too much, Abao immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile: "What do you two guests who have come from afar need?"

"Does your store have spiritual tea?" Huo Shan stated his intention directly.

"Yes! This is the new tea that was just picked this year." A Bao introduced it to the two.

After Ah Bao finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly remember something and asked again, "Why did your caravan from the Northern Territory come so early this year?"

Huo Shan laughed and said, "Our caravan just moved a little faster, and there was no delay on the road."

After hearing this, Abao just smiled.

After saying this, Huo Shan grabbed a handful of the spiritual tea in front of him, put it under his nose and sniffed it. Then he said, "Well, this year's spiritual tea is good, with a strong tea fragrance. I wonder how it tastes?"

Huo Shan's every move and every word is like that of a professional tea dealer.

Hearing this, A Bao directly brewed a cup of the spiritual tea for each of them. He smiled and said, "You two can try it. The spiritual tea of ​​our Tieshan City is famous throughout the Canglan Region. I won't let you down."

Huo Shan and Ling Xuelian picked up the tea, looked at the clear tea in the teacup, sniffed it, and then took a sip.

After a few breaths, Huo Shan and Ling Xuelian looked at each other and nodded, as if they approved of the tea.

"I wonder what the price of this tea is?" Huo Shan asked.

"This level of spiritual tea is now 500 low-grade spiritual stones per kilogram."

Hearing A Bao's answer, Huo Shan's eyes widened and he said, "Although this spiritual tea is of good quality, it can't be sold for 500 spiritual stones. In previous years, it only cost 300 or 400 yuan to buy it."

Upon hearing this, A Bao said calmly, "Senior, you may not know that the price of spiritual tea in Tieshan City has increased a lot this year, so this price is already very common in Tieshan City."

Huo Shan thought for a moment, as if he understood something, and suddenly slapped Ling Xuelian on the face, and cursed: "You stupid woman, let you talk nonsense, now the price of spiritual tea here has increased, we can't make much money if we buy it back."

At this time, Ling Xuelian seemed to realize her mistake. Facing Huo Shan's scolding, Ling Xuelian said anxiously, "Boss, let's go to other stores to have a look. What if other stores haven't raised their prices?"

Huo Shan was so angry that he turned around and walked out.

"Abao, follow these two people and see what they did. Come back and tell me everything." The shopkeeper instructed Abao after seeing the two men leave.

"Yes, shopkeeper."

After Huo Shan and Ling Xuelian came out of the Wang family's shop, they gave a few instructions to the other members of the caravan and then headed to the next shop.

The two of them went through almost all the shops in Tieshan City asking for prices one by one. In the end, they returned to the caravan dejectedly.

At this time, Abao also returned to the shop and was reporting to the shopkeeper what he had seen along the way.

"So, these two people are really buying tea!"

"It's absolutely true. I saw these two people going door to door asking for prices." Po replied.

"Looking at them like this, they will probably come to our store again soon. So! If they want to buy spiritual tea from our store again, you should increase the price by 20 spiritual stones per kilogram."

The two had another big argument in front of the caravan. Then, as if they had made up their minds, they walked into Wang's shop again.

"Waiter, let's buy it from you." Huo Shan said in a low voice.

"Thank you, sir. However, in the short time since you two left, the price of the spiritual tea has increased by another 20 spiritual stones."

"What?!" Huo Shan and Ling Xuelian were shocked again.

"I advise you to buy it quickly. The price of spiritual tea in Tieshan City is rising too fast. It may increase again soon."

"Okay, let's buy it." Huo Shan said gritting his teeth as he looked at Ling Xuelian.

In the end, Huo Shan spent all his money and spent 62,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy 120 kilograms of first-grade spirit tea. The two of them left the store and led the caravan out of Tieshan City without stopping, heading north.

Three more days passed.

The caravan has traveled thousands of miles away from Tieshan City.

At this time, Huo Shan and Ling Xuelian were sitting in the leading carriage. The atmosphere of the entire caravan was gloomy.

"Xue Lian, the person who was following us seems to have left." Huo Shan suddenly said.

"Brother Shan, it's better to be careful. Let's walk for another day. We must not ruin the Pavilion Master's plan."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Huo Shan looked at Ling Xuelian with a doting look on his face.

During these three days, two more caravans from the Northern Territory arrived in Tieshan City. Some people tried to inquire about the news about the Northern Territory Spiritual Tea from these two caravans in a roundabout way, but the members of these two caravans kept their mouths shut, and all those who came to inquire for information got nothing.

However, the two caravans still hurriedly left after purchasing a batch of tea at a high price in Tieshan City.
