The history of counterfeit antique dealers' cottage struggle

Chapter 18

In the middle of each month in spring, summer and autumn, the surrounding tribes will bring their goods to the Shengzhou Bazaar for trade.Shengzhou City is very lively in the middle of the month. Only in winter, when people cannot rush due to the weather, Shengzhou City will appear quiet.When the first sun rose, the people from the Shanwai clan had already rushed to the trade market on green horses.

The trade market is located in the center of the city and is a flat area the size of two football fields.The flat land is surrounded by mud walls, leaving four entrances and exits in the east, west, north, and south. The entrances and exits are guarded by pupil clan supernatural guards to maintain order.

The goods traded in this open-air trading market are relatively common. Tier [-] spirit beasts like Jinbao are considered high-end goods, and there are not many buyers, so they need to be traded in commercial buildings in the city.

Chunyu Building is one of the five major commercial buildings in Shengcheng. It is said that the owner behind the scenes is the Protoss. Elder Fei thinks that the management of Chunyu Building is more fair, and wants to sell the leopard skin and spirit meat to this commercial building.

Ordinary prey, together with pottery and ironware, were waiting for buyers in the open-air market. Elder Fei and Jin Wenshe led six people including Wen Gu, and drove three green horses carrying spiritual objects to the east of the city.80.00% of the shops in the city are gathered in the east of the city, and there are four major commercial buildings among the five major shops.

The Chunyu Building is a three-story stone and wood structure. The eaves are carved with mighty and ferocious monsters. There are two statues of spirit beasts with horns on their heads at the gate. The statues imply aura and glow faintly.

Elder Fei asked Wen Gu and others to wait outside the door with the green horse, while he and the Jinwen Society went upstairs to discuss with the steward.

Entering the building, there is a hint of coolness immediately, which makes people feel comfortable.

Jinwenshe was very curious about the so-called three gods. Although there were many people from various races in Shengcheng, there were no traces of the gods. Therefore, as soon as they entered the Chunyu Building, Jinwenshe looked for the gods with wide eyes.

"Do you two want to shop or sell?"

The building has a large area, and there are shelves along the walls on which a variety of goods are displayed. There is a staircase on the left side of the main hall leading to the second floor.In the corner, a pupil boy in a short brocade coat saw someone entering the building, so he hurriedly greeted him.

"I have two leopards that I want to sell." Elder Fei pointed to the door.

"Oh, Jinbao, the old price, two Zijing for one Jinbao."

"Ordinary Jinbao has two crystals, what about second-order Jinbao?"

"Second-rank Jinbao!" The boy from the pupil clan obviously couldn't make the decision. "You two, wait a moment, and I will ask the landlord to come down to discuss."

After the pupil boy finished speaking, he turned around and went up the stairs.

Taking advantage of the young man's appointment for the steward, Jin Wenshe looked at the goods on the shelves. The items on the shelves were obviously higher-end than those in the trading market.In addition to weapons and medicinal herbs for cultivation, there are also living and decorative items.Among them, the colorful pearls and corals are very eye-catching. These things are only found in the depths of the sea, but what surprised Jinwenshe the most was that he saw a mirror, such as a mirror made of glass.

The mirror was not too big, and the base was carved out of a kind of wood that exuded a fragrance. Standing in front of the mirror, Jin Wenshe could clearly see his own appearance.

So I grew up like this!

Jin Wenshe touched his chin, and was very satisfied with the facial features and slender figure of this body. The appearance in the mirror is definitely considered to be above average on earth, and he is more handsome than his original appearance.

"This is made by the craftsmen of the Chou nationality with a year of polishing out of the obsidian from the deep sea of ​​the West Sea. Is the guest officer interested?"

A gentle voice sounded from behind Jinwenshe, only then did Jinwenshe realize that there was an extra figure in the mirror.

"Bifengshan Shanwai Zongwen Society has seen the host!" Jinwen Society hastily turned to salute.

"My name is Han."

The aura exuded by Master Han is slightly stronger than that of Elder Yun. He is dressed in a blue fine gauze dress, decent and elegant, with fair skin, flying eyebrows, emerald pupils, straight nose bridge, and plump lips.According to Jinwen Society's aesthetic concept, he is a very good-looking Tong clan member.The pupils of Master Han who change from time to time are unique to the pupil clan.

Jin Wenshe was slightly disappointed. The owner of Chunyu Building is not a Protoss, it seems that it is not easy to meet a Protoss.

Seeing Jinwenshe staring at him, Tonghan smiled slightly: "Wenshe? I didn't expect the guest officer to be from the Wen tribe. It doesn't look like it."

"I don't look like a member of the Wen tribe, so what kind of tribe do I look like?" Jin Wenshe was stunned, wondering why Han Tong would say such a thing.

"It's kind of like... like our Tong clan." Han Tong was about to continue, when he caught a glimpse of Elder Fei beside him, he immediately changed the subject.

"Mr. Han, this time we got a Tier [-] leopard and want to sell it to Guilou." Elder Fei had dealt with Mr. Han once or twice, knowing that Mr. Han's business was always straightforward, so he directly explained his intentions.

"Oh, bring the spiritual thing in." Tong Han nodded.

Wen Gu and the others who were waiting outside the door heard Elder Fei's greeting, and quickly carried the two leopards into the building.

"This piece of leopard skin is pretty good, it's not damaged at all, and you can use the material to the maximum." Tong Hanyan looked at the second-level leopard skin.

The big leopard was stabbed to death by a dagger and a long sword through the eyes, and Elder Yun was skinned from the weakest abdomen, and the animal hide on the back was very intact.

"This piece of leopard skin is almost gone. The area around the head was destroyed by spiritual power, and this area can no longer be armored. But this piece of leopard has just grown up, and the value of the animal skin is not too high, so it's not a pity."

Tong Han finished inspecting the two Jinbao skins, straightened up and shook his fingers twice. "The total price of this little Jinbao is two zijing, the big Jinbao has good skin, and 21 zijing including the belt meat, are you two satisfied?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied." With one more crystal than expected, Elder Fei of course nodded repeatedly.

Tong Han turned around and winked at the boy. The boy understood, went to a cabinet table and pressed the summoning bell, and took 21 crystals from the drawer and handed them to Elder Fei.

As soon as Elder Fei ordered Zijing, several Lang men in light blue jackets came in through the small door behind the shelves and carried the two leopards away.

"There are all kinds of cultivation pills in the building, do you want to see Elder Wen?" Tong Han began to sell the goods of his business building.

"This..." Elder Fei touched Zijing, and he didn't want to spend it here. The quality of the elixir in Chunyu Building is better than that in the open-air market, but the price is much higher.

"Master Han, please take it out and show us." Elder Fei hesitated, but Jin Wenshe didn't. He wanted to see the high-quality elixir.The auxiliary pills used by practitioners of the Mountain Wai Sect are all low-grade pills.

Tong Han looked at Jin Wenshe and smiled again, he waved his hand to the young man standing beside him, and the young man immediately brought a wooden box to the drawer of the shelf.Open the wooden box cover, there are more than ten small bottles in the wooden box, and the small bottles are filled with various samples of elixir.The bottle is made of stone, and the color ranges from black to white, with the lighter the color of the bottle, the higher the grade.

"How do you sell this low-level elixir?" Elder Fei pointed to the most inconspicuous black elixir bottle.

"One hundred bottles, one crystal for one bottle." Tong Han's expression remained unchanged, still making people feel like a breeze, and the boy who only held the wooden box curled his lips slightly.

"What about this kind?" Jin Wenshe pointed to the white stone bottle.

"A bottle of ten of these is the same as a seed crystal." The price is the same, but the quantity is 90.00% less.

"Can I take a look?"

"of course can!"

With Tong Han's permission, Jin Wenshe opened the cap of the white bottle, and suddenly a fresh fragrance came to the face, and a faint fluorescent light overflowed from the bottle mouth.Jin Wenshe visually inspected that the intensity of the fluorescence was similar to the spirit grass and elixir he had picked, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.The panacea, which is more expensive than ordinary pills, is nothing more than that.

"These are low-level pills in the lower building. If the guest officer is not satisfied, there are medium-level pills upstairs, can you take a look?" Tong Han is good at observing expressions. Seeing the disappointed expression on Jin Wenshe's face, he was slightly curious in his heart, with a twinkle in his eyes. Playing abusively, I recommended to Jinwen Society a medium-sized medicine that Elder Fei never bought.

"Okay, please take it out and have a look." Jin Wenshe nodded immediately.

"Guests, please follow me!"

This time, Tong Han did not let the boy take the medicine, but invited Jin Wenshe to go upstairs with him.

"She!" Elder Fei was anxious, and while Tong Han turned around to lead the way, he grabbed Jin Wenshe's sleeve. "Medium elixir is too expensive, and Zongli only uses it when he has reached the advanced level."

When Jin Wenshe heard it, he understood that his ability to enter the intermediate level in a daze was due to the efficacy of the self-made elixir, and he wanted to see the intermediate elixir even more in his heart. "Just look at it today, don't buy it."

"This..." Elder Fei never had the habit of looking at the goods without buying. Seeing that the Jinwen Society had already followed Tong Han upstairs, he had no choice but to go up with the Jinwen Society.

Big Mouth Wen Gu has been very sensible since he entered the commercial building. Like several other supernatural beings, he didn't speak or move around at will. Seeing the owner of the commercial building leave, the pupil boy retreated behind the counter and immediately ran to the mirror , Look left and right in the mirror.Seeing that the pupil boy did not scold, the remaining supernatural beings also slowly moved to the front of the mirror.The Mountain Outside Sect didn't have a mirror, and if they wanted to see their appearance, they could only look at the water, as the water mirror could not allow people to see their faces clearly.

Seeing the supernatural beings of the Mountain Outer Sect huddled together in front of the mirror, the pupil clan boy behind the counter could not help but twitch his mouth.

Wen Gu and others looked in the mirror downstairs, and Jin Wenshe saw another mirror upstairs, a mirror that could reflect a person's whole body.

"This is the middle-grade medicinal pill." Tong Han took out a more delicate mahogany box. There were also more than ten kinds of bottles in the wooden box. The bottles were ceramic bottles, and the ceramic bottles had different colors, including white, yellow, red, and blue. But the glaze is not good.

"What price is this?" Jinwenshe took a yellow bottle, opened the bottle cap, and a strong medicinal fragrance rushed to his face, and the fluorescent light on the bottle mouth was very bright, which made Jinwenshe want to swallow it in one gulp.

"A bottle of ten quick crystals, ten in a bottle." Tong Han raised a finger and shook it.

The price has increased ten times again, Jin Wenshe touched his chin, the middle-level medicine pill is equal to one crystal, and two jinbao can be exchanged for 23 pills, which is not enough to eat for a month, this middle-level medicine pill is really fucking expensive .

"She!" Elder Fei saw that Jinwenshe was staring at the medicine pill, so he couldn't help pulling down Jinwenshe's clothes. "Your meridians haven't been expanded yet, and you won't need intermediate-level pills."

Ordinary cultivators first practice expanding the meridians, and the meridians are expanded to a certain extent before they can cultivate the sea of ​​qi and store the spiritual energy, and the cultivation of spiritual energy requires the assistance of middle-level and high-level elixir.

"Let me inquire clearly first. If I need it in the future, I can go directly to the owner of Han to buy it." Jin Wenshe looked back reluctantly.

"Waiting for you at any time!" Tong Han grinned and took the pill back.

"What's the price of this medicine bottle?" Jin Wenshe rolled his eyes.

"Porcelain vase?" Tong Han was stunned. "The guest doesn't want a porcelain bottle? If the medicine pill is not placed in a porcelain bottle, the medicinal properties will be dissipated. A porcelain bottle is not too expensive, but it is only a crystal."

"Do you want a crystal for the porcelain vase?" Jin Wenshe's eyes lit up.

"Yes, porcelain vases are not easy to make, and this is the price I bought from the lower building." Tong Han explained that the Shanglou did not earn customers' packaging fees.

"We have a small porcelain vase for sale, and we only need a piece of crystal. Will the landlord buy it?" Elder Fei couldn't wait to intervene. He thought that the Shanwai sect could already make large pottery, and of course small pottery could also be fired.If the ceramic kiln doesn't know it, force them to know it.At least hundreds of small porcelain vases can be fired in one kiln. If a small porcelain vase has one crystal, it is hundreds of crystals!It was equal to a dozen or so Tier [-] Jinbaos.

"This..." Tong Han stared at Elder Fei suspiciously. Ceramics can only be fired by the Tao tribe in the Hundred Clans Continent, and the Wen tribe has never heard of this kind of skill.

"The ceramics fired in our Zongli are of better quality than this one, and the color is correct, and they can be sold to Chunyulou at half price." Jinwen Society directly cut prices to compete.

"Can it be half price?" Tong Han thought, could it be that the Wen Clan can really bake it?If it can be fired, it will make the packaging of the Shanglou much cheaper, and it can also indirectly reduce the price of the medicinal pills in the Shanglou. "If it is true as you said, all the small porcelain vases of nobles can be sold to Chunyu Building."

Chunyu Building is not only available in Shengzhou, there are Chunyu Commercial Building chain stores in the prosperous areas of other tribal territories.The total amount of elixir sold in the commercial building is very large, and of course it needs a lot of outer packaging.

"Then we'll deliver the goods next month." Jin Wenshe was gearing up, eager to fly back to Bifengshan ceramic kiln now.

"Yes!" Tong Han nodded, somewhat believing that the Wen clan could really make ceramics, which was big news.

"How do you sell this mirror?" Jin Wenshe suddenly pointed at the mirror.

"The mirrors on the second floor are not for sale. If customers want to buy mirrors, they can buy mirrors downstairs, as long as you pay ten zijing." Tong Han smiled, and the floor-to-ceiling mirrors on the second floor were a gift from a dragon tribe. for him.

"Ah! So expensive?" Jin Wenshe shook his head, ten Zijing, combined with a second-level spirit animal skin, is really a steal! "If there is a mirror that can reflect the same, will your building buy it?"

"Could the Wen family know how to make mirrors?" Tong Han laughed, not a polite smile, but a real smile in his eyes.

Elder Fei blushed and called the Lajin Wenshe. "So, the materials for making mirrors are only available at the bottom of the West Sea, so we can't make them."

Tong Han laughed because of this reason, the West Sea is the territory of the Dragon Clan, who would dare to go to the site of the God Clan to dig for obsidian?

Jinwenshe stared at the mirror made of obsidian again.Obsidian is pure in color, fine in stone quality, and has the characteristics of glass.

"Although this kind of obsidian lacks aura and cannot be made into a sharp weapon, it is also of great value. It can only be mined in the deep seabed. Except for the Shenlong clan, no one can sneak into the mine."

The cross-section of the obsidian is shell-shaped, very sharp, and can be made into weapons. Most dragon people make obsidian with aura into magic weapons, and those without aura into mirrors.Obsidian with aura is rare, and you can't see it in the market.

Tong Han popularizes the source of the mirror, and Tong thinks that Jinwenshe is too young and has too little knowledge.

"If it has the same function as a mirror, and the material is not obsidian, can your building buy it?" Jin Wenshe disagreed from the bottom of his heart. No matter how expensive it is, it is not as clear as a mirror made of glass. As a mirror, isn't the most important function of seeing people clearly!

"Of course, the functions are the same, so we can buy them at the same purchase price." Tong Han's eyes became more teasing.

"Then it's a deal. If I make a mirror, I'll send it right away." Jin Wenshe has no idea in his heart. He can tinker with glass, but he doesn't know where to get tin foil and mercury. Who knows if there are such things in this world? thing.

The author has something to say:

There are obsidian of various colors on the earth, but there is no obsidian, and the obsidian will become white granular after burning, and the texture is loose and porous.
