Zong Shou spent roughly 3 days in this Jiefu City. The selling momentum of low-tier medicinal pills was even stronger than he had imagined. It actually fell to about twenty-four times, and only after two days did it slow down slightly. It was close to 8 times more than the drop in his last life.
At this moment, everyone in Jiefu City looked at Zong Shou with a red glow in their eyes. Their eyes were like they were looking at a gold mine, filled with greed and jealousy. However, no one dared to underestimate him.
During these few days, a large portion of resources were crazily falling. Only those basic pills not only didn't fall, but instead exploded in price.
Roughly estimating, Zong Shou took out hundreds of grade 7 beast crystals and similar items to purchase them. At this moment, if he changed the pills to beast crystals. That would be close to 70 times the price difference from a few days ago!
One could even foresee that the price of these basic pills would explode in these few years.
Zong Shou didn't hesitate at all. On the 3rd day, he sold half of the basic pills at 20% lower than the market price to Sanlu Bank and the pawnshop opened by Taiyuan Sect.
The manager of the pawnshop didn't hesitate at all to accept it. His eyes were filled with deep meaning as he gave Zong Shou a friendly smile.
The old man from Sanlu Bank sighed, "The prince's way of doing things is really admirable. Do you know that these basic pills, after a few years of careful manipulation? Even if they increase in value by 5 to 10 times, it would still be enough? "
Zong Shou didn't reply. To increase the price to such a level, it would depend on what kind of person and power did it. Even if he could do it, he needed to be alive to spend it.
The old man seemed to know the answer, his face surprisingly peaceful, "You giving out these pills is the same as giving me thousands of grade 7 beast crystals. What do you need us to do? "
When he heard that, Zong Shou still kept silent and didn't speak, only rolling his eyes. He was thinking that this person wasn't as decisive as that person from Taiyuan Sect. That old man gave a bitter smile, "Those crazy people from Taiyuan Sect can start a war with the entire cloud world without hesitation. Our Wujue Villa doesn't have such confidence. Forget it, for this matter, my Wujue Villa will take responsibility for the prince. Ten thousand grade 7 beast crystals, he really couldn't bear to push them out. However, although we have stopped those hidden sects, we can't do anything about it. Below the Empyrean Plane, you still have to rely on yourself. Right, Prince, I know of a Return to Sun realm spirit master who is rather reliable. Do you want me to introduce them to you? "
Zong Shou smiled. What he wanted was a reliable bodyguard.
After only half an hour, Zong Shou walked out of the bank with satisfaction. Hu Zhongyuan and Tan Tao surprisingly didn't say a single word about the business he had made today. The way the latter looked at Zong Shou became more and more complicated. When it was time to make a move, he would not hesitate. When it was time to let go, he was decisive. He could not see through this Crown Prince anymore.
Although those pills were sold at a cheap price, Zong Shou's wealth exploded from a hundred grade 7 beast crystals to seven thousand.
When Zong Shou walked out of the bank, he saw the screen. The price of the beast crystals dropped by another ten percent.
"These shrines and sects are really vicious when they do things. Respect, respect! "
After saying such random words, Zong Shou started to prepare to leave. Hu Zhongyuan didn't understand, but Tan Tao smiled faintly. Since they couldn't stop the drop, then they should just suppress the price and buy it back at a low price. In the future, they could also earn money. They didn't know how much these beast crystals were worth now, but in the future, the number of martial cultivators and spirit masters would increase along with the spiritual wave. The price would rise back up a little. It could be considered huge profits. Zong Shou saying that those shrines and sects were vicious wasn't wrong.
On the last day in Fu Jie City, they crazily bought things. When Zong Shou left, the number of carriages had increased by three times. There were two more people beside him, one male and one female. The male was called Li Luo, and the female was called Shi Dan. They were both forty to fifty years old. The latter was the Return to Sun realm spirit master that Old Chao Feng recommended, and had already formed eight true spiritual talismans. The former was personally sent over by the Taiyuan Sect deacon. He was the same grade as Tan Tao, a Xuanwu ancestor with seven meridians.
However, when this person came, Zong Shou looked at him in shock. This person might not be as strong as Hu Qianqiu, and was even weaker than Zhu Junhou. However, his combat strength could cross grades to fight, challenging eight meridians!
The two of them didn't want to speak much to Zong Shou and the others. They were just asked by someone to escort him to Gantian Mountain. They only bowed politely and stood at the side as if they were wooden statues made out of clay.
Zong Shou himself didn't care, buying things on a large scale before leaving Jiefu City.
Tan Tao's suggestion to move troops from Xuan Mountain City was something that Zong Shou didn't agree to. However, the three thousand cavalry that followed were left behind by him.
Five hundred iron tiger halberd warriors, a thousand mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry, plus three thousand cavalry. It was still four thousand five hundred people, along with a thousand odd carriages. They majestically entered Ruohai Mountain Range.
On the third day, a few red swift birds were like balls of fire as they flew over from the distance and landed in front of Tan Tao. Their legs were wrapped in small golden sleeves.
Tan Tao casually took out the paper from within, but he didn't even take a look before sending it to Zong Shou's carriage window.
After Zong Shou opened it, he took in a deep cold breath. Then, he facepalmed, saying with a huge headache, "I only earned some money from them. I only sold those pills for three hundred grade 7 beast crystals. Why is it so exaggerated? "
Only then did Tan Tao take the paper. When his eyes landed on it, the close to seven digits number flashed. His body trembled slightly, following which he gave out a bitter laugh. Three hundred grade 7 beast crystals, this was like taking a knife from the bodies of these two powers. How could those two not hate him?
Thinking about it seriously, Tan Tao calmed down, "Prince, if I am right, this Yunxia Mountain and Blazing Flame Mountain should be eyeing the mind stone mines in Ruohai Mountain Range. Why don't we temporarily retreat back to Xuan Mountain City?"
Hu Zhongyuan's brows were originally furrowed, and he was a little unhappy. However, when he took the paper in his hand, he instantly changed his stance. It was best to quickly retreat.
The four exits all had two hundred thousand and above troops. That was just crazy. To go from those few directions was no different from asking to die.
Zong Shou looked into the distance in deep thought. After a short while, he turned his head, "I heard that father used a thousand iron cavalry to fight in the Cloud Continent. No matter how strong the enemy was, he didn't fear them. Gantian Mountain was the same. Only Gantian Mountain people died in battle. Even if they fought to the last person, they wouldn't take a step back. Is your Xuan Mountain City all like that? Seeing that the enemy is strong, you want to flee? "
At this moment, the cavalry nearby were pretty much all mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry. When they heard that, they all scoffed, their expressions filled with rage as they stared over with their eyes wide open. Tan Tao's hands were tightly clenched, suppressing the anger in his chest. Knowing that the enemy wasn't someone he could beat and still charging up, that wasn't bravery but lack of strategy!
He wanted to persuade a little more, but looking at Zong Shou's mocking eyes, Tan Tao bore with it. His expression was cold, "Then let's follow what young city lord wants! Which path is young city lord prepared to take? Cloud stacking mouth is flat with many clouds and mist, but the path is narrow. Hengjing plains are huge, but there is a river blocking … "
Before he finished, Zong Shou smiled, "There's no need to choose, let's take Ruohai Straits. The one that once trapped 400 thousand troops of our Xuan Mountain City. "
Tan Tao clenched his teeth tightly. He could vaguely hear the sound of teeth cracking coming from his mouth. After a short while, he was barely able to open his mouth to speak, "Young master do you know what you are saying? Although Ruohai Straits is huge and is the best place for cavalry. It is also the closest to Gantian Mountain, but … "
"But it is also the best time to spread out the army! The other 3 places have at most 200 thousand people. But this Ruohai Straits can have 300 thousand troops, even over 40 is possible. Once the back is blocked, we won't be able to escape. "
Before he finished, Zong Shou directly interrupted. Tan Tao's expression was a little surprised. Following which he shook his head, "Tan Tao you only know that it is tough to face a strong enemy, but do you know about martial strength, military strength, and country strength? We can't give in now, Xuan Mountain City is surrounded by enemies, how many people can come? "
Tan Tao frowned, it was obvious that he didn't understand. Zong Shou didn't explain, saying expressionlessly, "Forget it, I won't explain to you. In the future you will naturally understand. Anyways, we can't show weakness in this battle! So what if they have 400 thousand troops, we will step over where they are the strongest. Since I started cultivating, the sword in my hand has never backed down. The sword is like that, the battlefield is also like that! "
Tan Tao's pupils constricted, looking at Zong Shou in shock. After bowing slightly, he didn't say anything more. Li Luo and Shi Dan were slightly shocked. However, after exchanging glances with one another, they still kept silent.
After receiving the message from the red swift bird, these 4500 cavalry, tens of thousands of war horses and beasts didn't slow down. Instead, under Zong Shou's urging, they sped up.
2 days later, they arrived at the place known as Ruohai Straits. It was a canyon on the east side of Ruohai mountain range, surrounded by mountains.
The first thing Zong Shou did was to climb a few days with Tan Tao and look into the distance. This place was still hundreds of miles away. However, at this moment, there was a Return to Sun realm spirit master beside him.
A Dao Art was displayed, and a thin transparent water mirror appeared in front of the few of them. The spiritual patterns within flashed, occasionally giving off ripples. However, one could see hundreds of miles away.
"Wow. It really reached 400 thousand! "
Hu Zhongyuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his eyes filled with shock.
Only to see 280 miles away, within the canyon. Surprisingly, it was an army camp. It occupied tens of miles of land, extremely majestic.
What Zong Shou paid more attention to was the aura that charged up from the camp. There were close to a thousand of them. Amongst them, there were 6 that could compare to Tan Tao.
"6 Xuanwu ancestors, 2 Return to Sun spirit masters, this battle isn't going to be easy. Oh right, there are also those two … "
Thinking back to Feng Yu and Xiong Kui, although they weren't Xuanwu ancestors, they had the combat strength of Xuanwu. The corner of Zong Shou's lips twitched slightly. He knew that the opponent was strong, but to be so strong, even he didn't have much confidence in breaking through.
"It seems like I can only go all out, let's hope that he doesn't disappoint me …"
Just as he was thinking about that, Zong Shou exclaimed and looked behind him. In that instant, numerous cold glows flew over! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
