"What new goods? How can they be better than our Nangong family's?"
Nangong Kaiwei was dismissive of the old steward's words. Ever since the Nangong family opened a weapon shop in Tang Temple City, no one had been able to compete with them. Because the Nangong family was financially strong and had many forging masters. Demon cultivators didn't know how to forge, and other human warriors had to pay more taxes to open a shop, so they had no competitors at all.
Nangong Yifeng and her two cousins didn't take it seriously when they heard that the new master of the Northern Hell had bought two shops. How could a small person compete with the Nangong family? But when the old steward presented the weapons, Nangong Yifeng was a little dumbfounded.
As the daughter of the patriarch, she had some knowledge. The four weapons in front of her were divided into four different grades. The shape was almost the same, but the feel, color, hardness, sharpness, and so on were all different. Every one of them was new, and it was obvious that they were newly sharpened swords. She could even smell the smell of the smelting furnace from the body of the sword.
"How … how is this possible!"
When Nangong Yifeng noticed the two words "North Sea" printed under the sword hilt, she was even more shocked. She quickly looked at the other three swords. Yes, they were also printed with the word "North Sea". The handwriting was exactly the same, so it should be the work of the same person. To put it bluntly, they were carved from the same mold.
"How many of these weapons do they have?"
As the daughter of a business family, Nangong Yifeng knew very well. This kind of clear-cut weapons would definitely sell well in Tang Temple City. Not only would they sell well in Tang Temple City, but they would also sell well in the entire Northern Continent. Because the demon cultivators' own weapons carved with bone spurs, hardwood, and sharp stones were not competitive at all. It was very difficult to find a bone spur that was comparable to a metal weapon. And even if they were found, the price was very high, and ordinary demon cultivators couldn't afford it at all.
As for things like thousand-year-old thunderstruck wood, they were even more precious. Ordinary self-made weapons couldn't compare to forged weapons in terms of sharpness and toughness. Therefore, human weapons were very popular in the Northern Continent. That was why the Nangong Family had occupied Temple Tang City, a stronghold on the south bank, at the first opportunity. They had spared no expense to compete with the Situ family for territory.
Although the nearby Tiger Cage City was also very developed, the sales of goods were far inferior to Tang Temple City, which had a large floating population. They had originally thought that their Southern Courtyard Weapon Shop would never have an opponent, but who would have thought that there would be a new guy called Beiming Feng. Just one person had disrupted the weapons market of Temple Tang City.
Now, the Dark North Miscellaneous Goods Store no longer had a wide variety of items. Other than weapons and armors, he also sold elixirs. It was said that the spirit pets in their other shop were also selling well.
Spirit pets were tamed from demon beasts, and demon cultivators themselves were evolved from demon beasts. According to normal thinking, how could a demonic cultivator be willing to spend money to buy a demonic beast? He could go out and catch one himself. There was no need to waste money.
However, that was not the case. Ever since Du Feng opened the first spiritual pet shop in Tang Temple City, the demonic cultivators had slowly accepted this concept. For example, a wolf-type demonic cultivator might buy a tiger-type demonic beast as a spiritual pet to fight for him. This way, he could not only increase his combat strength, but also gain face. Although he did not have the ability to subdue a tiger-type demonic beast, he could buy one ready-made with money. After buying it, he could flaunt it on the street. That feeling was really cool.
Of course, there were also demonic cultivators who would buy their own kind. For example, a tiger-type demonic cultivator bought a tigress. As for whether it was used for fighting, as a mount, or for other things, the shop owner did not care, as long as he paid.
"Investigate, investigate this Beiming Feng for me."
Nangong Yifeng ordered the old butler to bring people to investigate Beiming Feng's identity, to see if he was really related to the Beiming Family. If he was really related, then what did this hidden family want to do? Actually, they did not know that this Beiming Feng was a fake. His real name was Du Feng, the murderer who killed Nangong Yan.
Nangong Yifeng could only blame herself for staying in the Northern Continent and not contacting the headquarters in the Southern Continent. Even if she occasionally heard the name Du Feng, she did not pay much attention to it, let alone remember his appearance. Even if she remembered it, it was useless. In order to facilitate the investigation of Li Jun in the Northern Continent, Du Feng slightly changed his appearance before he set foot on the south bank.
Now he could not see any traces of disguise, but he did not look very similar to before. Except for those who were particularly familiar with him, outsiders could not recognize him as the previous Du Feng. With a different appearance, plus the confusing surname Beiming, he was really like a fish in water in Tang Temple City.
Huh? After inspecting his two shops, Du Feng strolled out of the city. He planned to go to the sea from the south bank, then turn north. He would go to the North Sea near the Netherworld Sea, or directly to the Netherworld Sea to have a look. But just as he walked near those big stone pillars, he felt that someone was following him.
Could it be that the Nangong family found him, or that the Hua family of Huaze Jun wanted to take revenge? Niu Houde did not have the courage to take revenge. He was quite happy working with his brother-in-law now, earning more than when he was only collecting rent. That Huaze Jun's family was still a little rich, and it was possible that they would hire someone to take revenge.
Du Feng sped up and circled around the pillars. The people behind him were hot on his heels. It seemed that they were quite capable. He could basically judge that this had nothing to do with the Hua family. The Hua family might not be able to hire such an expert with their little wealth.
Maybe his true identity was exposed, or maybe it was because the new batch of goods was too eye-catching. Anyway, the people following him were most likely related to the Nangong family. It just so happened that he wanted to find them to understand some things, and they came to him so soon.
It was not convenient to make a move here, so Du Feng simply sped up and soon arrived at the south bank. He was now a permanent resident of Tang Temple City and did not need to pay any offshore toll. Besides, he had not used the berth he rented last time. He simply used the remaining berth right to use and found an empty berth without waiting in line. He put down the Princess and quickly left the south bank.
It was a little interesting. Du Feng deliberately set up the Netherworld Eye on the south bank. The advantage of the Netherworld Eye was that it did not have spiritual power fluctuations, so it was not easy to be discovered. Even if it exploded, it would not have much power. But he could monitor the situation nearby to see who was following him.
