The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 3 Shopkeeper Shen (for further reading)
"Yunxiu, take good care of your safety at home, I'll go to Fangshi."

The magic sword is finished.

Chen Ling wanted to go to Fangshi, hand him over to shopkeeper Shen in exchange for Lingshi, and see if there was any other work by the way.

In addition, Lingmi, meat, etc. have been exhausted, so I need to exchange some. My wife is in confinement and needs enough nutrition every day!

"Husband, be careful when you go out!"

"Come back when you're done, don't delay outside!"

When I heard that Chen Ling was going to Fangshi.

He Yunxiu, who was playing with Chen Ping'an, showed worry on his face. Although Jinshanfang City was safe and guaranteed, their cultivation level was too low, and even if it was just an accident, it might kill them.

And now Chen Ling was the only support for their mother and child!
"Don't worry, Fangshi is not far away. Give the magic weapon to shopkeeper Shen, exchange the spirit stone, and buy something, and I'll be back."

Afterwards, Chen Ling opened the door and walked out.

The weather in April, the afternoon sun is a bit hot, and the crowded shanty towns are still tinged with darkness.

Chen Ling walked in the bumpy alleyway with a "calm" face. Although he was still a little panicked, his eyes were shining brightly, and he was not as muddleheaded as before.

The surrounding spring is gloomy.

Young shoots grow on the jujube trees on the street, which makes people feel comfortable.

With hope and hope in life, he looked at everything around him with vitality!
On the road, there were monks passing by, some of them were neighbors in Hongye Lane for many years, and Chen Ling also bowed their hands to them one by one.

As soon as we arrived at the spacious main road, the atmosphere became lively. The road was paved with stone slabs, and there were hawkers who set up stalls shouting and shouting one after another.

Chen Ling didn't stop at all, and walked along the main road towards Fangshi.

Once on the main road, the city wall of Fangshi was already in sight. The city wall was about three to four meters long. There were various complicated formations engraved on it, and there was an aura of spiritual fluctuations from time to time.

This magic circle breath gives people an inexplicable sense of security!
"Whenever there are enough spirit stones, it will be much safer to set up a magic circle in our small courtyard!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

There were more people on the square market than on the main road. Chen Ling followed the crowd and entered the square market.

The safety factor in Fangshi is much higher than that of the blocks outside Fangshi.

When they first arrived here, they lived in Fang City, but after the death of He Jing, they lost their biggest source of income and could only move to the current place.

But even in Hongye Lane, the rent price is not cheap. With the influx of wasteland monks into the market every year, the rent price is rising.

If it wasn't a fluke that inspired Goldfinger this time, then he could only go to the mines hundreds of miles away to mine to fill the family's expenses.

Fortunately, it is no longer necessary.

Although the trading hours have passed, the square city is still very lively. There are many shops on both sides of the main road, with dazzling decorations, and most of them are equipped with defensive magic circles.

Chen Ling was very familiar with it, and soon came to a shop that mainly sold ritual artifacts. There were three dazzling gilt ancient characters "Duobao Pavilion" on the facade.

Just walked in.

This is the shop opened by the Qin family of the Jianji family in Fangshi.

The ancestor of the Qin family was once a disciple of the elder Jindan of the Qingyang Sect, and the Qin family can be regarded as an established family in the Qingyang Sect.

But now the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion, Shopkeeper Shen, is the son-in-law of the Qin family, and he was originally on good terms with He Jing.

At the beginning, all the magical instruments refined by He Jing were entrusted to Shopkeeper Shen for sale.

Although He Jing passed away, shopkeeper Shen took good care of Chen Ling, and would still take care of him whenever there was some low-level magic weapon business.

It's just that Chen Ling's own level is limited, and the magic weapons he refines often fail to meet the standards, which makes customers dissatisfied.

Shopkeeper Shen is a middle-aged man with a good fortune. His body is a little fat. He is on the seventh level of Qi training. He is checking the account book. He is slightly surprised to see Chen Ling.

Chen Ling hurriedly cupped his fists and saluted, and said with a smile, "Uncle Shen, my nephew has already refined the magic sword you want."

While talking, Chen Ling took out the magic sword from the storage bag and handed it to Shopkeeper Shen.

Shopkeeper Shen was taken aback, put down the ledger, took the dharma sword, and checked it.
He quickly showed joy and said, "That's right, a second-level spirit ban."

"Your boy is very fast this time! The quality is also good!"

"Here are 20 yuan low-grade spirit stones, you can count them!"

After the shopkeeper Shen finished speaking, he took out a Lingshi bag from the counter and poured out 20 yuan of low-grade Lingshi.

With this magic sword containing a second-level spirit ban, the market price would be 25 spirit stones or higher.

But Chen Ling has always chosen to trade with shopkeeper Shen. Although the profit is a little less, it is better to be safe.

There is no need to worry about safety issues, and Lingshi is also paid for and delivered.

And as long as he deals with shopkeeper Shen alone, many potential risks are reduced.

Chen Ling put away the 15 yuan spirit stones, pushed the remaining five spirit stones to shopkeeper Shen, and said with a smile, "Uncle Shen, these spirit stones should be regarded as my nephew, thank you for your care!"

Shopkeeper Shen smiled, glanced at Chen Ling, waved his hand and said, "You don't have much money, just keep it for yourself."

For a craftsman, what he valued was the potential of the other party, so he naturally wouldn't take this spirit stone to heart.

Originally, his patience with Chen Ling had been exhausted.

The reason why the magic sword was handed over to him for refining this time was that the disciples of the Qingyang Sect recently accidentally discovered a third-grade gold mine in the Yunmeng Swamp, and the sect wanted to recruit a large number of monks to mine it.

As a result, the demand for magic weapons skyrocketed, and other refiners were simply too busy, so he had no choice but to hand over the magic sword to Chen Ling for refining.

Of course, Chen Ling didn't know the reason for this.

He stayed at home all year round, and he didn't know about the Liejin vein.

"I still have an order for ten low-level magical artifacts. Among them, the embryos of the magical artifacts have been refined, and the only thing left is to engrave the spiritual prohibition. Two of them even need to use the third-level magical artifact, and they must be completed within ten days. Do you dare to accept it?"

Thinking that no other craftsman could be found to complete these custom-made magic weapons for a while, Shopkeeper Shen simply asked Chen Ling to try it.

When Chen Ling heard this, his face immediately showed joy. After thinking in his heart, he cupped his fists and said, "Uncle Shen, nephew promises to finish."

Although it is not easy to successfully portray the ten spirit bans in ten days, but he is eager to earn spirit stones, so he can't control so much.

"it is good!"

Seeing that he agreed, shopkeeper Shen took out a second-party storage bag, handed it to Chen Ling, and said, "There are ten custom-made magical artifacts in it, five of which are first-level forbidden, three second-level forbidden, and two third-level Forbidden."

"The total reward is 180 spirit stones. I can give you a deposit of [-] spirit stones first."

"Thank you, Uncle Shen!" Chen Ling took the storage bag and cupped his fists to thank him.

Although Shen Zhen was a businessman, Chen Ling felt that he was quite kind.

All of a sudden, there was an extra 40 yuan of low-grade spirit stones in his hand, and Chen Ling was excited, feeling like a nouveau riche.

You must know that their monthly rent is eight low-grade spirit stones, which has already made him breathless.

And this order, if completed, will have an income of 180 spirit stones, and the little days will be nourished in the future!
Putting away the storage bag and Lingshi, Chen Ling was about to say goodbye to him.

Who knows, Shen Zhen glanced around, smiled and said in a low voice, "Chen Ling, since you are already a middle-grade craftsman, it will be easier for you to earn spirit stones in the future. I wonder if you have the idea of ​​taking a concubine?"

"Why does Uncle Shen ask such a question?" Chen Ling replied with a guilty conscience.

Now, in order to obtain the incense value, he naturally wants to increase the number of family members, but his wife has just given birth to a child, if she rushes to take a concubine, wouldn't it be cold to her heart?

Of course, for the sake of incense, he can't be so scruples, as long as he compensates his wife more in the future.

There was a little embarrassment on Shen Zhen's face, and he said, "A few days ago, a fellow Taoist went to Yunmeng Swamp and asked me to take care of his daughter and find a suitable husband's family for her."

"This woman is in her twentieth year and is on the second level of Qi training. If you are interested, you can get married."
