"Liquor worm …" Fang Yuan murmured softly as he walked to the center of the counter.
As long as he had this Liquor worm, he would be able to refine the Four Flavours Liquor worm by supplementing it with sour, sweet, bitter and spicy wines. Of course, this kind of fusion naturally had the possibility of failure.
But if Fang Yuan didn't have a second Liquor worm, he wouldn't even have the chance to try.
Life was like this. Hard work might not lead to good results, and success might not be guaranteed. But if you don't work hard, you will definitely fail.
It was the same for the Devil Dao. Most of the people in the Devil Dao were good at overcoming obstacles and advancing bravely. In the eyes of most people, this seemed extreme and risky.
"I was still worried about how to find a second Liquor worm. I didn't think that fate would send this Liquor worm to me. The opportunity was right in front of me, how could I give it up? I will get this Liquor worm! "Fang Yuan's eyes flashed with determination.
"If my cultivation level had reached rank five or four, with great battle strength, I would have snatched it and left without saying a word. If God or Buddha obstructs, God or Buddha obstructs! If they were rank three or rank four, they would have many methods and could steal without anyone noticing. It's a pity that I'm only at Rank two now, and I'm only at the initial stage … "
Fang Yuan sighed inwardly. 'If that's the case, I can only buy it honestly.'
He glanced at the price on the counter.
"Liquor worm — five hundred Yuan stone."
The normal market price of the Liquor worm is 580 Yuan stone. The marked price here was actually 80 Yuan stone cheaper than the market price.
But if Fang Yuan really thought that he could buy this Liquor worm by spending five hundred Yuan stone, then his five hundred years of previous life would have been wasted.
The reason why the price is so low. It was just that Jia Fu wanted to attract people and attract them to buy.
This treehouse was obviously Jia Fu's property.
"Grandma, this Liquor worm is only worth five hundred primeval stones!" A young girl walked over and exclaimed in a small voice.
The girl's eyes sparkled as she shook her mother's arm. "Grandma, tomorrow is the Awakening Ceremony. Didn't you promise me that you would give me a gift? Why don't you buy this Liquor worm for me? "
The girl's grandmother was wearing a white belt with a square piece of silver on the front. The word "three" was engraved on it.
Once a Gu Master cultivates to Rank three, they would automatically be promoted to clan elder.
However, there were differences between the elders. Some of them were elders in power. High position and authority. Some were not. They were in charge of departments with little profit.
But this rank three old man was clearly not a lousy clan elder.
"Guyue Yao Ji …" Fang Yuan recognized her. This person was an elder of the medicine hall. The medicine hall was the center of the entire clan's logistics. It could be said that it was the department with the most profits. Guyue and Yao Ji were very experienced. Even in front of the chief, they didn't need to salute and could just sit and talk. She was the number one healing Gu Master in the clan and had saved many clan elders' lives, her network in the clan was extremely strong.
"Good, good, good. My dear granddaughter, if you want it, grandma will buy it for you. "The old woman's face was full of wrinkles. She leaned on her walking stick and sighed helplessly. He smiled kindly.
"Grandma is the best. I know grandma loves me the most." The young girl happily hugged Gu Yue Yao Ji on the spot, pouting her lips and kissing her on the cheek.
"Then grandma, let's call the shop assistant here and quickly buy this Liquor worm!"
Guyue Yao Ji shook her head: "My dear granddaughter. The Gu worms here are not bought like this. Grandma will teach you. Do you see the stack of paper and pen on the counter? "
The young girl nodded innocently: "I see it."
Guyue Yao Ji: "Go take a piece of paper and write down your price for this Liquor worm. Then stuff it into the hole on the side of the counter. If your price is the highest among all the people who want to buy it, then this Liquor worm will belong to you. "
"So it's like this. Quite interesting." The young girl took a bamboo paper and held the pen. But when she was writing, she hesitated.
She furrowed her cute brows and thought hard for a while. Finally, she pouted and asked: "Grandma, how high should I write down the price? I'm afraid if the price is too low, the Liquor worm will be bought by someone else. If the price is too much higher than others, you will suffer a loss. "
Guyue Yao Ji laughed and deliberately teased: "How can it be so easy to buy a Liquor worm? It's up to you, my dear granddaughter … "
"Grandma!" The young girl acted like a spoiled child, hugging Guyue Yao Ji's arm and shaking it.
"Okay, okay, stop shaking." My bones are about to fall apart. "The old woman sighed," Grandma will help you fill it in. "
The young girl jumped up and shouted: "I knew grandma is the best to me!"
Guyue Yao Ji wrote down a price and attached her name. The young girl stared at her from the side.
After the old woman finished writing, she folded the paper and winked at the young girl: "Go, put the paper in."
The young girl obediently took it and found a hole on the side of the counter and stuffed the paper in.
She returned to Guyue Yao Ji's side and asked with some worry: "Grandma, is this enough?"
The old woman nodded: "It should be enough. But life is hard to predict, maybe someone will offer a higher price than the price. But that price will be too high. If the price is really higher than the price, then the person who bought this Liquor worm is really a fool. Don't worry, this matter is already in the bag. "
"Oh." The young girl nodded with a cute expression.
"Let's go. Accompany grandma to the upper floors. "
"Yes, grandma."
…
Looking at the grandmother and granddaughter's departing figures, Fang Yuan's eyes flashed with a trace of seriousness.
This Guyue Yao Ji, to him, was indeed a strong competitor and could not be ignored.
But this situation, Fang Yuan had already expected and prepared for it.
The Liquor worm was precious, although it could only be used on Rank one Gu Masters, but the Liquor worm could refine primeval essence, this was really outstanding. Primeval essence refining and advancing by a small realm, this meant that the primeval essence storage would increase, and at the same time it would have a strong effect on the Gu Master's cultivation progress.
The only flaw was that the Liquor worm's development prospects were not great.
According to the most widely circulated secret recipe. The Liquor worm was only used as a fusion material, and the new Gu worm that was fused would not have the ability to refine primeval essence.
This was really a pity, even to the point where the loss outweighed the gain.
Thus, many clans who had the Liquor worm would not use it to fuse and advance, but use it in the academy, specially for the new students to use.
If Fang Yuan handed over his advancement recipe, he would not be able to do so. Then the Liquor worm's market price would definitely skyrocket.
"It is not easy to get this Liquor worm. This grandmother and granddaughter pair is only one of the competitors. I wonder how many other competitors have already placed their pieces of paper in this counter? "
The Liquor worm was a good thing, and good things were naturally wanted by everyone.
But among these competitors. Some were sincere in wanting to buy, some just wanted to try their luck. Some were rich, like Guyue Yao Ji. Some were poor, like Fang Yuan.
"Luckily I took back my family property, and these days I sold the Rank one vitality leaves, as well as renting out the tavern and bamboo buildings, I accumulated some Yuan stone. Otherwise I wouldn't even have the qualifications to compete. "
But the time he had accumulated was too short, and on the other hand he had many Gu worms to feed. In terms of wealth, how could he be a match for elders like Guyue Yao Ji.
"Sigh, let's go. Lord Yao Ji had just placed her piece of paper in front of everyone. "
"I saw it too, it seems this Liquor worm is not fated to be with me."
…
The Gu Masters around this counter all left dejectedly.
Only Fang Yuan was still standing.
His eyes were like a deep spring, shining with cold light.
The Gu Masters who left were all frightened by Guyue Yao Ji's imposing manner. Taking the initiative to leave. But how could Fang Yuan be frightened?
"Sometimes the opportunity is right in front of you, but people just give it up. I still have a chance! "Fang Yuan's thoughts churned in his mind, sinking into deep thought.
In terms of wealth, Fang Yuan was definitely not Guyue Yao Ji's match.
However …
This did not mean that Guyue Yao Ji's price would definitely be higher than Fang Yuan's!
The Liquor worm was precious. But it was still a Rank one Gu worm. The price of any commodity would fluctuate, but it would not rise or fall without limits. All price fluctuations were within a certain range.
So the key now was what price Guyue Yao Ji would offer!
She did not lack money, and for her beloved granddaughter, how much could she offer?
As long as Fang Yuan offered, even if it was just a little bit higher than Yao Ji, it would be Fang Yuan's victory.
This was a new battle! The strong might not necessarily be the victor, and the weak might not necessarily lose. Guessing and gambling made the battle a different kind of excitement.
"If it was someone else, they might not be able to guess it. Guyue Yao Ji, you purposely said those words just now to scare off some competitors? But in front of me, you are still too tender! "Fang Yuan's lips curled up, revealing a confident smile.
This world's trade was actually very interesting.
If it was on Earth, when a seller wanted to sell rare Gu worms like the Liquor worm, they would usually use the auction method.
But in this world, auctions were not popular.
One important reason was the supreme value of kinship, which was the cohesiveness of the clan.
If an auction was held, the clan members would subconsciously feel a sense of common hatred towards an outsider like Jia Fu.
Once the price of the auctioned goods rose a little, many competitors would automatically withdraw. They would even negotiate with each other on the spot, making some compromises, exchanges and compensations.
In this world, almost everyone had a point of view — losing to a family member was nothing, but to let an outsider earn money, that was a humiliation to the entire clan.
Unless, several clans participated in an auction at the same time. Like this, there would be competition and the smell of gunpowder.
But this kind of auction was very difficult to hold.
Because transportation was not convenient.
Transportation was the foundation of commerce. If transportation was not developed, commerce would wither. This was because commerce was fundamentally about the circulation of goods.
Each village occupied a mountain, and they were far away from each other. The road in the middle was difficult to travel, with beast groups, steep cliffs, harsh weather, and dangerous wild Gu worms. It was full of difficulties and obstacles.
With such inconvenient transportation, it was hard to organize people from all sides to participate in an auction.
Even on Qing Mao mountain, there were three villages adjacent to each other. Jia Fu did not dare to organize an auction.
Firstly, where would the auction be held? It was not safe to hold it in the wilderness. If it was held in Guyue village, the other two parties would not be at ease.
He was only a Rank four cultivator, the three village leaders were also Rank four, he could not control the situation.
Compared to Earth, this world's commerce was not developed, it had its own unique rules.
In his previous life, Fang Yuan relied on the business theories he learned from Earth, he had earned money, but also suffered losses. After experiencing many lessons of blood and tears, he gained true knowledge from practice.
Combining the rich business theories from Earth, together with his personal experience, it was not an exaggeration to say that Fang Yuan's understanding of this world's commerce was definitely at the top of the world.
Just an old woman who lived in a village and had never left Qing Mao mountain wants to stop me from getting the Liquor worm?
Old woman, you are too inexperienced!
