Emperor Shentongjian

Chapter 656 Buying Spirit Vegetables
Several Zhuji said they would go back to ask their elders, and invited Zhan Changfeng to go with them to the village.

Xinjia Village is located in a valley, with white walls and black tiles covered by green trees. A stone road passes through people's houses and leads faintly into the forest.

Zhan Changfeng sat in a family for a while, and after a while, the host led a middle-aged monk in and introduced her, "This is our village head."

"Fellow Taoist, please be polite." Xin Guang first heard that someone came to look for Xin Shi'an, and said that he could buy spiritual food that the villagers could not sell at ten times the price, so he hurried to have a look.

He looked at Zhan Changfeng and asked suspiciously, "Fellow Daoist, are you here to find the tenth master?"

"If the Ten Great Lords that the village head talks about are the new seniors of Xinshi'an, then that's it."

"Yeah." Xinguang twitched his beard first, then nodded to himself, and Er'er asked again, "Does your family have a relationship with the tenth master?"

Zhan Changfeng recalled Ling Weichu's words, and said, "I owe him a favor."

Ling Weichu said that when he fled, Xinshi'an went to Fu Linmen to make a fuss for him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he owes him favors.

"Well, the tenth master has moved out a long time ago, and there is no news of him in the village. If you insist, I can introduce you to his older sisters. They should know where he went." Xin Guang said first , Rubbing his hands honestly, "Is it true that fellow Taoist said that you can buy spiritual food at a price ten times higher?"

"It's hard to chase after a gentleman's words." Zhan Changfeng smiled lightly, "My old man didn't have many friends in his life, and he suffered many ups and downs. Only the new senior helped him. I know the new senior may not be here anymore. There is no way to repay this favor, so I can only express my gratitude in this way.”

Xin Guangxian was just trying her out. After all, with the temperament of the tenth master, it is unlikely to have friends, and it is unlikely to help anyone. Maybe she has other purposes.

But when she heard that her old man had no friends, and it was the tenth master who took the initiative to help, she couldn't believe it for some reason.

"Hey, all the spiritual food in our village has been ordered out, but there is a batch of spiritual vegetables that cannot be sold, and if we can't find a buyer, they will rot in the ground. My hair is turning gray from worry. If you are willing to help , I don't ask for ten times the price, I only wish to sell it to you at a [-]% discount on the basis of last year's market."

"Of course." Zhan Changfeng didn't hesitate at all, as if it was purely for help, "Is the market for Ling Vegetables down this year?"

"Don't mention it. A few years ago, the North Show and the South Wind were not peaceful. Under the turmoil, the demand for spiritual food increased. Most of the spiritual food here was shipped there. Originally, the four yuan A pound of black spirit rice from Pinlingshi was sold at 11 yuan a pound, and a piece of emerald jade cabbage was raised to nine yuan a pound, and everyone was busy reclaiming forest land and planting wildly.”

Xinguang sighed first, "Although I know that when things gradually stabilize there, purchases will decrease and prices will drop. I asked the villagers to gradually reduce production in advance, but I didn't expect it to drop so quickly. The spiritual food is fine. A few spirit stones were lost, but they were all sold, and spirit vegetables were not so lucky."

"Compared to spiritual food, it needs to be ripened once a year, or every two years. Most of the spiritual vegetables are ripened every few months, and the growth cycle is short. Over there, you can grow the spiritual vegetables by yourself, and you don't need to come. We purchase a lot here, it's just a pity that the spiritual vegetables we hoard cannot be sold, alas."

"If fellow Taoist is willing to buy it, I will be very grateful." Xinguang first hoped that Zhan Changfeng had other purposes, otherwise he would be suspected of taking advantage of others' danger and feel uneasy.

"Can Fellow Daoist digest these spiritual vegetables?" If you take them back, they will be damaged, so it's better not to sell them.

"How many spiritual vegetables do you have?" Zhan Changfeng asked.

Xinguang said solemnly, "We mainly grow green jade cabbage and red konjac here, and it is conservatively estimated that it is more than 20 catties."

"Yes, the village head will buy it for me."

Xinguang was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, I guarantee that the vegetables here are fresh and juicy."

"Oh, by the way, fellow daoist, please rest for a while, I'll report to some aunts." He happily said to the farmer next to him, "Daniu, treat your guests well!"

"Hey, good!"

There were already several dishes of spiritual fruit on the table, Xin Daniu rubbed his hands, went to get some more dishes, and picked some fresh spiritual vegetables, and said cheerfully, "I only grow spiritual food, not vegetables, I just went to pick these from other fields, look, the vegetables we grow here are not bad!"

"It's not bad." Zhan Changfeng picked up a green jade cabbage, "Do you have cold-resistant vegetables here?"

"Red heart konjac, it's the best thing to grow. It can live if you water it." Xin Daniu said eagerly, "I'll ask the village chief to bring you some more seeds. You can take them back and let them plant them."

"Thank you." There is a shortage of spiritual food and vegetables in the icy wasteland, so it's okay to stock up and go home.

Three quarters later, Xinguang came back first, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he called out, "Fellow Daoist, my aunts would like to see you, come with me."

On the way, he revealed to Zhan Changfeng that there are ten brothers and sisters in the branch of his tenth master, and there are nine sisters in front of the tenth master, and those nine sisters opened a clothing store.

However, the ten members of this school are all of high status, and they live in seclusion on weekdays, and even the clothes shop only let the waiters show up. Except for a few of their relatives, no one can see their shadows, the younger generation I don't even know they exist.

Deviated from Xinjia Village, walked along the mountain road all the way, and before a big banyan tree, Xinguang bowed down first, "Xinguang, the head of Xinjia Village, boy, leads the guests to visit."

He said to Zhan Changfeng again, "Fellow Taoist, enter by yourself, I'll go back and collect the spiritual vegetables first."

"Go on."

Zhan Changfeng stood still and waited.

Not long after, the big banyan tree trembled slightly, and thousands of hanging air roots moved frivolously, forming a gate, and wrote: Xin'anju.

This is actually a cave.

The cave is a small space connected to the main astral world, and it is often a good place for cultivation.

Zhan Changfeng thought about it carefully, and it was difficult to subdue these monks who had no shortage of rich couples and lands. At most, she asked Xin Shi'an to come forward to refine a few high-quality treasures, or make friends, and not let him join day family.

Thinking of this, she calmed down, and walked into the cave with a pure visiting mentality.

In the cave, there are many mulberry trees, and there are celestial silkworms lying on the green leaves. These celestial silkworms are a bit special, as if they have no body, just like little clouds.

They almost covered the mulberry forest, and looked like a large cloud from a distance.

Going further in, Zhan Changfeng saw that the leaves of several mulberry trees had been eaten up, and cocoons were hanging on the branches, and there were many "fruits".

A burst of charming laughter approached from far away, but I saw nine slim and graceful beauties in colorful clothes, carrying bamboo baskets, walking gracefully.

"You're the one who wants to see Shi'an?"

"Where do you live?"

"It's so handsome, but it's missing a piece of clothing I wove."

Before Zhan Changfeng could open his mouth, he was surrounded by nine people. He spoke to each other with smiling eyes and a faint fragrance.
