Chapter 790

Zhang Dakui took the man to the side to exchange while Guo Shier continued to shout.

A Talisman Warrior came over and said, "I don't have Hidden Cultivation Talismans. Can you sell me some food? I … I'll pay two big talisman coins for one jin of meat. How about that? "

Guo Shier shook his head and said, "Uncle, I can't do that. I'm only exchanging, not selling."

Everyone present knew that the price offered by the Talisman Warrior was not low, but it was impossible to buy food at this price. Now, no one was willing to exchange food for black talisman money. That thing could not be eaten.

The man sighed and took out a set of talisman books and said, "This set of talisman books … I don't know if you want to exchange? It's the handwriting of a talisman plant master. I got it by chance. "

Guo Shier knew that only talisman plant masters could make Hidden Cultivation Talismans. Of course, he was interested in the handwriting of a talisman plant master. However, he did not show any excitement on his face. He calmly asked, "How to exchange?"

The man gritted his teeth and said, "One thousand jin of meat!"

Before Guo Shier could speak, someone next to him said in surprise, "One thousand jin of meat for a set of talisman books? That's too exaggerated. "

"You're bullying a child!"

"…"

The man blushed. He knew that his price was too high. Seeing that Guo Shier did not speak, he could not hold it in and said, "How much do you want to exchange?"

In fact, Guo Shier was already very willing. However, he could not let the exchange price rise. It would be too harmful to the people who had food and would cause public anger. He said, "Five hundred jin of meat and one hundred jin of flour." This number was not small. One hundred jin of flour could be exchanged for one thousand jin of meat. The meat here was very cheap. The flour was a luxury.

The man said, "Yes!"

Guo Shier exchanged for two more Hidden Cultivation Talismans and left with Zhang Dakui in satisfaction.

"Uncle Zhang, how much meat and noodles do you have left?"

"Eight hundred jin of meat and one hundred jin of noodles."

Zhang Dakui took a few talisman bags and said, "Shier, in a few days … the meat and noodles will increase in price. Is it too early to exchange?"

Guo Shier shook his head and said, "You can't be too greedy. Usually, you can't buy it even if you have money. Hehe, if it was not for the lack of food, they would not exchange it."

Zhang Dakui asked, "Are we going home?"

Guo Shi 'er smiled and said, "Let's not rush back. Let's go to Grandpa Xu's house." After he returned, he had long wanted to visit Xu Zaikun, but he was busy studying and cultivating, so he never had the chance. Since he was at the Talisman Warrior Hall today, he might as well make a trip there.

Xu Zaikun's residence was different from his master, Luo Jie's. It was obviously much smaller, and he didn't have as many followers as his master. He only had a dozen or so followers, as well as family members, apprentices, and servants.

"Li Zaikun Xu"

Xu Zaikun was very happy to see Guo Shier, he said, "Shier, you finally came to see me! "I, I thought, I thought, I thought you forgot …"

Guo Shier grinned and said, "How could I forget? Grandpa, I'm too busy with my studies."

Guo Shier smiled and said, "How can I forget? Grandpa, I'm busy with my studies."

"Grandpa, do you have enough food now?" Guo Shier asked.

Xu Zaikun smiled bitterly. "How can it be enough? But Shier, don't worry. Grandpa is a Rune Pill Master. I can use advanced Rune Pills to exchange for food. Don't worry, I have an apprentice who went to exchange. He should be back soon."

"Master, I'm back."

Xu Zaikun found Guo Shier's expression strange. He couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Guo Shier held back his laughter and said, "No, nothing."

They saw Wei Xian carrying a bag containing talismans, walking in with a cheerful expression. When he saw Guo Shi 'er, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Eh? Why are you here? "

Guo Shier smiled and said, "Why can't I be here?"

Old Master Xu couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Wei Xian, what are you doing?"

Wei Xian was so scared that he trembled. He smiled and said, "Ke, Master, I just saw this little brother in the market. Ke, ke, ke …"

Xu Zaikun asked, "You took four advanced Rune Pills. How much food did you exchange for?"

Wei Xian said proudly, "2000 pounds of meat. If I hadn't acted fast, I wouldn't have been able to exchange for 2000 pounds of meat."

Old Master Xu was shocked and said, "What? Only so little? Are you kidding me? One advanced Rune Pill can save a life at a critical moment. Normally, it would cost at least 2000 big talismans. I might not even be willing to sell it! Only 2000 pounds? That's too little … "He treated Guo Shier as one of his own, so he didn't hide his words at all.

Wei Xian felt wronged and said, "Master, you don't know. We can't use money to measure the value of the food. The price of the food increases three times a day. No one is willing to sell it. We can only exchange it with other things, and it's getting harder and harder to exchange for it. Right, little brother, you know what happened. Come and tell Master.

Alas, Master doesn't believe me … "Guo Shier knew that Wei Xian was lying. He looked at Wei Xian and grinned. Wei Xian broke out in a cold sweat. Behind Xu Zaikun, he secretly cupped his hands, asking for help.

Guo Shier smiled and said, "Grandpa, I brought a lot of food. Ke, ke, it's specially for you." He signaled Zhang Dakui to take out the talisman bag and said with a smile, "It's not much. It's just a little gift from Shier."

Xu Zaikun said repeatedly, "Ai, that won't do. How can I take your things? Besides, food is very scarce now. If I take it … what will you do? "

Guo Shier said, "Grandpa, I got a lot of food from Master. It's enough to eat. Ke, ke, take it as my filial piety to you. Accept it. Otherwise, I won't dare to come again."

Although the gift was light, Guo Shier's affection was heavy. The old man was extremely touched and said, "Ai, ai … I'll accept it, I'll accept it. Good boy." He let Wei Xian take the talisman bag and said, "Wei Xian, this is Shier. You two have to be closer in the future and help each other. Do you understand?"

Wei Xian's face was full of smiles. He said attentively, "I understand, Master. I understand!" He took the talisman bag and ran out. If it wasn't for Guo Shier's interruption, it wouldn't have been easy to get through today.

In the evening, Guo Shier stayed at Xu Zaikun's house and ate a sumptuous dinner. There were also two talisman dishes.

There was a question in Guo Shier's heart. He asked while eating, "Grandpa, there are so many people in Northern Talisman City. Where does the food come from?"

Xu Zaikun said, "The flour is basically transported from outside. Half of the meat is raised in Northern Talisman City. The other half is hunted, and the rest is also transported from outside. Northern Talisman City never lacks food because of the talisman bag. This year's situation is special. I believe the situation will improve soon."

Guo Shier was puzzled. "Grandpa, how come I didn't know there was such a big farm? There are tens of millions of people in Northern Talisman City, and they all eat so much. How many animals do we need to raise?"

Xu Zaikun couldn't help but laugh. He said, "It's not difficult. You know the Beast Talisman School, right? They have a talisman technique that can quickly mass produce animals. However, only the big sects have the ability to use this method."

Guo Shier asked curiously, "Since they have this ability, why don't they speed up the production?"

Xu Zaikun said, "This needs time to adjust. I estimate that in about ten days, the meat should be able to be freely supplied."

Guo Shier was secretly shocked. He asked, "Then there's still no supply of flour?"

Xu Zaikun nodded. He was a bit curious and asked, "Shier, why are you interested in this?"

Of course, Guo Shier was interested in this. He depended on it to make money this time. He had hoarded a large amount of food, half of which was meat. Once it was freely supplied, it would be a loss. He laughed, "Purely out of curiosity. Hehe, grandpa, I got a lot of good things this time."

Xu Zaikun saw the set of talisman planting books and exclaimed, "This is the treasure of the Plant Talisman School!" He said solemnly, "You have to keep this well. It's fine in the inner sect, but you must not let others see it when you go out. I reckon that this set of talisman planting books was stolen. I just don't know how that person cracked it. Maybe he was lucky and found the key at that time. "

Xu Zaikun warned him again and again. His love and care was evident in his words.

That night, Guo Shier stayed at Xu Zaikun's house.

The next day, when Guo Shier returned home, he immediately asked the servants to invite Aunt Lan and Aunt Xin over. He said, "Aunt Lan, we can sell the meat we hoarded. According to the black market price, sell it as soon as possible in ten days. Just leave ten days' worth. Hmm, leave fifteen days' worth. If we continue to hoard the flour, it will increase in price."

Everyone busied themselves again. Meat was in high demand at this time, so once it was taken out, it was sold out. It started from two large talisman coins per catty. In the end, there were even people who were willing to spend four large talisman coins to buy a catty. When they bought the meat, they spent a total of seven thousand large talisman coins. Now, it had increased by at least a hundred times. Just from the meat, they had earned close to a million large talisman coins.

Aunt Lan and Aunt Xin simply couldn't believe that in less than two months, they had earned so much money. The two of them admired Guo Shier from the bottom of their hearts.

At this time, Guo Shier had already arrived at his master, Luo Jie's house.

Luo Jie was leisurely sitting cross-legged on the floor. In front of him was a short table with a few kinds of talisman food and a cup of aged wine. He drank the wine and ate the talisman food with a relaxed and happy expression. When he saw Guo Shier come in, he smiled and said, "What a coincidence. You know master has good food? Come, sit down. Someone, set up another set of bowls and chopsticks. Shier, accompany master for a drink. "

Guo Shier didn't refuse. He sat down with a smile and asked, "Master, what are you so happy about?"

Luo Jie said, "In a few days, you can sell the meat. There's too much, your family won't be able to finish it."

Guo Shier couldn't help but smile. He said, "Master, before I came, I already asked Aunt Lan to help me sell it. It will probably take a few days to sell it all."

Luo Jie drank a mouthful of aged wine and sighed. "Child, you're amazing. Have you sold the flour?"

Guo Shier said, "The flour … I'll leave it for now."

Luo Jie couldn't help but rub Guo Shier's head. He said, "Sometimes I wonder what's growing in your head? You don't seem like a child at all. This time, master has benefited from you and earned a lot of money. Good, good … haha. "

Luoluo suddenly walked in and said, "I'm back!"

Luo Jie's expression instantly became serious. He shouted, "You still know to come back?"
