Lonely Immortal

Chapter 72 Killing Pigs

In this way, an afternoon passed, and Zhang Zhiwen sold all three spiritual energy powders. The manager kept an eye on him from time to time. Seeing that he packed up and left after selling three spiritual energy powders, he did not make trouble. He sold some pills in the market, only a few low-level pills, and he did not bother Zhang Zhiwen. After Zhang Zhiwen left, he could find someone to take over the stall. Although the money he collected was less, it was all his money, which was not bad.

Three spiritual energy powders were exchanged for six low-grade spirit stones. Zhang Zhiwen took these six low-grade spirit stones to the residence of Mr. Fang and his apprentice, and returned one low-grade spirit stone to Fang Sheng. At this time, Mr. Fang had not returned yet, and it was estimated that he was still working in the Lin family's fairy palace.

Fang Sheng did not expect that Zhang Zhiwen would take the spirit stone back not long after he went out, but he did not ask much. He asked Zhang Zhiwen to keep it for dinner before leaving, but Zhang Zhiwen declined. How could he continue to trouble them?

However, Zhang Zhiwen only gave Fang Sheng one low-grade spirit stone, because if he gave him two or three at once, what would Fang Sheng think? This low-grade spirit stone is very difficult to accumulate. At least for Mr. Fang and his apprentice, one low-grade spirit stone has to be accumulated for more than half a year. Zhang Zhiwen did not say that he would not give them benefits, but it was beyond their cognition all of a sudden, which was also a troublesome thing.

Some things cannot be rushed, and it is not too late to plan slowly in the future. It is not possible to let Mr. Fang and his apprentice have unnecessary misunderstandings, and then it is inevitable that there will be all kinds of worries. Zhang Zhiwen is still very clear about this.

So, Zhang Zhiwen returned to his residence, entered the fairy house, and continued to cultivate the solitary fairy fruit.

One low-grade spirit stone can cultivate one solitary fairy fruit, but Zhang Zhiwen did not plan to cultivate too many. Some things cannot be too urgent, especially when he is in a bad situation now. The more difficult and troublesome it is, the more slowly it should be handled. As the saying goes, urgent matters should be handled slowly, which is the truth. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will cause greater troubles, and it will be irreparable.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen only cultivated three solitary immortal fruits, leaving three low-grade spirit stones. Three solitary immortal fruits are enough. Too many will inevitably lead to unnecessary speculation and trouble. Today at the market, the manager kept staring at him. In fact, he not only stared at him, but also stared at the area he was in charge of. He wanted to find an opportunity to fine him or something. Several times, Zhang Zhiwen saw the manager hiding in a corner and suddenly popping up to make trouble. A casual cultivator was accidentally caught by him. In fact, he just sold some animal bones privately, and then he called the patrol team to catch him.

Of course, Zhang Zhiwen didn't plan to go to this market that day. He wanted to change to the south market. He planned to change places every day to avoid unnecessary trouble. In Feixian City, he basically had to be careful at every step. This is also his usual practice.

In this way, nothing happened overnight. The next day, Zhang Zhiwen went to the market in the south of the city.

The market in the south of the city is similar to the market in the east of the city. There are also many independent cultivators setting up stalls. However, the south of the city is the territory of the Chen family. The main business here is the talisman business. Zhang Zhiwen has been here once before. Of course, he has some knowledge about talismans. The fire talisman, water talisman, and wind-controlling talisman are all low-level talismans. Here, there are many powerful talismans. In addition to talismans, there are also various scrolls. The scrolls are also of various types. Zhang Zhiwen doesn't know much about them.

For the time being, Zhang Zhiwen has no time to learn about various scrolls and talismans. He plans to sell three lonely fairy fruits today. After he came to the market, he also found a place to set up a stall. Like yesterday, he first took out a lonely fairy fruit to sell, on the one hand to test the wind first, and on the other hand to be cautious.

After the Lonely Immortal Fruit was put out, it was obviously not as good as the Spiritual Energy Powder. Most casual cultivators passed by and basically didn't even look at it. If this thing is swallowed directly, the effect is not as good as the Spiritual Energy Powder. And the Spiritual Energy Powder only sells for three low-grade spirit stones, but the Lonely Immortal Fruit sells for five low-grade spirit stones. Who can accept it? Unless the other party is an alchemist, there is no need to buy it. Wouldn't it be better to buy Zhao's Spiritual Energy Powder directly?

So Zhang Zhiwen put it out for a whole morning, but no one came to ask, which made Zhang Zhiwen a little frustrated. He shouted for a long time, but it turned out that he was poor!

He also understood that the Zhao family really firmly controlled the pill business of Feixian City, so many casual cultivators mostly bought their pills instead of refining pills. The cost of refining pills was too high, and coupled with the suppression of the Zhao family, gradually, there was no pill refining.

Zhang Zhiwen felt that he might not be able to earn enough money to set up the stall today. He had just earned his first pot of gold yesterday, but he might lose it today. It was not easy to do business. It seemed like he was making money, but in fact, he was blackmailed here and asked for a little there. There were all kinds of monopoly oppression. It was really difficult to do small business. No wonder his parents worked hard from dawn to dusk when they did small business, but they couldn't make any money!

What is this Feixian City? What's the difference between it and the secular world? It's even more dangerous than the secular world!

But since they had come to set up the stall, Zhang Zhiwen didn't make sense to close the stall so early. Anyway, he would talk about it if he couldn't sell it, so he continued to shout.

Then, the afternoon was about to pass. At this time, a person finally came. This person looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. It felt like a casual cultivator who had come to Feixian City not long ago, and it was a female casual cultivator.

The girl was pretty, wearing a headscarf and a coarse cloth. She didn't look like she was from a wealthy family, but she was interested in Zhang Zhiwen's lonely fairy fruit. She squatted down, picked up the lonely fairy fruit, and asked, "What is this?"

Zhang Zhiwen glanced at her and knew that this girl was ignorant. She didn't even know the Solitary Immortal Fruit. However, he didn't know much either. So he replied, "This is the Solitary Immortal Fruit, a medicinal material for refining spiritual energy powder!"

"Oh..." The girl looked disappointed after hearing this, and then put down the Solitary Immortal Fruit and was about to leave.

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but feel depressed. It was not easy for a customer to come, so why did he leave again? But there was nothing he could do. He couldn't stop people from buying and selling by force, right?

But the girl stopped again, turned around, and smiled, and asked, "Then let me ask again, can this thing be fed to spirit beasts?"

"Spirit beast?" Zhang Zhiwen was a little surprised, but soon, he had an idea in his mind. Yes, although the Solitary Immortal Fruit is a medicinal material, it seems to be a spirit fruit, right? Isn't it normal for spirit beasts to eat spirit fruits and spirit herbs?

"Yes, my lady's spirit beast is very picky about food. She asked me to come out and see if I could buy something delicious for it. Humph, that little Dou'er is really something. There are so many delicious foods in the mansion, why is it so picky about food..." The girl said, with a sense of immaturity and innocence.

Zhang Zhiwen understood now. This girl was probably a maid in the Lin family's fairy mansion, and she was a maid of some lady, but this maid was a bit poor? She was actually wearing a coarse cloth? After all, she was a close maid in the Lin family's fairy mansion, so it was okay to wear brocade, right?

"Hey, I'm asking you a question. Can I eat it?" The girl was a little impatient, because she saw that Zhang Zhiwen looked a little silly and didn't say anything.

Zhang Zhiwen came back to his senses and quickly replied: "Of course, of course, this is a good thing, very delicious."

"Oh, you didn't lie to me, did you?" The girl glanced at Zhang Zhiwen, looking a little suspicious. She had been cheated several times when buying things in this market, and she was cheated every time. No, she wore a coarse cloth to avoid being thought of as a fool with a lot of money.

"No, no, otherwise you can pay a little first, it's delicious." Zhang Zhiwen said quickly. Those who do business must have the awareness of doing business. It's okay to ask people to pay a little, and the other party is the personal maid of Miss Lin's Immortal Mansion, so how can she refuse to pay?

Hearing Zhang Zhiwen so sincerely, the girl believed his words, and she nodded: "Okay, I'll believe you for once. By the way, how to sell it! Don't shout a random price."

"No problem, this thing is cheap, only ten low-grade spirit stones." Zhang Zhiwen said sincerely.

But he doubled the price directly. Anyway, there is a pig to kill, why not kill it? I haven't sold one all day. Now that I catch one, I will definitely sell it at a higher price. Besides, it's not that expensive. For the eldest lady of Lin's Immortal Mansion, ten low-grade spirit stones are definitely nothing.

Sure enough, the girl nodded: "Well, it's really not expensive, just ten low-grade spirit stones. Here, I give it to you. By the way, remember that my lady is Lin Mingyue. If you cheat me, it's equivalent to cheating her. She will punish you when she sees you!"

Zhang Zhiwen was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that this girl was actually Lin Mingyue's personal maid. Wasn't this solitary fairy fruit sold to feed the fairy deer?

Yes, only the fairy deer with a proud neck that almost reaches the sky would be so picky about food. After taking a bite of this solitary fairy fruit, ten low-grade spirit stones were gone. It is true that the dogs of rich families have a hundred times better life than the poor.

"Of course, don't worry. By the way, I have two more here. Do you want one? I'll give it to you at a discount." Zhang Zhiwen quickly took the opportunity to take out the other two Lonely Immortal Fruits.

"No, who knows if Xiaodouer likes it? If he doesn't like it, I will be punished." The girl waved her hand and left with the Lonely Immortal Fruit.

However, Zhang Zhiwen felt good about being able to sell a Lonely Immortal Fruit. The most important thing was that he sold it for the price of ten low-grade spirit stones. Zhang Zhiwen didn't think this price was inappropriate. This is a business, one is willing to buy and the other is willing to sell, is it not possible? Besides, Lin Mingyue doesn't need these low-grade spirit stones, right?

But at this time, the manager came. There are many managers in the market. Their cultivation is not high, only the third and fourth levels of Qi Refining, but these people are relatives of the patrol team or distant relatives of the four major families. This group of people, one watching a group, keeps a close eye on the market, so if there is any movement in the market, this group of people will know immediately.

Look, this manager saw that Zhang Zhiwen actually sold ten low-grade spirit stones for a lonely fairy fruit, so he came to find Zhang Zhiwen.

"Hey, you are a black boy, this is a market, not a black shop, tell me, how much extra money did you charge just now?"

The manager shouted with a crooked mouth as soon as he came, staring at Zhang Zhiwen with his triangular eyes, looking ferocious.
