Longevity and Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Controlling Your Own Essence.

Chapter 105
one year later.

Zhang Yao thoroughly integrated his knowledge of spirit patterns, talismans, and formations, and made great progress in his skills, so he was ready to start opening a shop.

In Mangshanfang City, the rent for a fixed store is 30 yuan a year for Lingshi, and if you buy it directly, it is 100 Lingshi, and the validity period is [-] years.

Zhang Yao's pseudonym was 'Zhang Qing'. After fabricating a place of origin, he chose to rent it for five years at the Fangshi Management Office, and spent a lot of spirit stones to purchase some materials for making talismans.

The next day, Zhang Yao's shop opened.

The demand for high-level talismans is very high. After learning that a new store has opened, there will be a lot of immortal cultivators in the first wave.

Zhang Yao's technology is excellent, and the quality of the high-level talismans he manufactures is reliable. He soon became famous and established a reputation in Mangshanfang City.

In just a few months, Zhang Yao's small shop has accumulated a group of regular customers, and there is an endless stream of customers every day, which makes him earn a lot of money.

"Every month, excluding the rent paid to Fangshi and the commission paid, I can earn a net profit of more than 30 Lingshi."

"After one year, the income is nearly 400 yuan of Lingshi."

Behind the shop, Zhang Yao counted the spirit stones, showing a hint of satisfaction.

The speed of opening a store, selling high-level talismans, and earning spirit stones is far from what a poor low-level talisman master in Qingyunfang City could compare to in the past.

As for the formation master, it belongs to the business of not opening for three years and three years after opening, and has not taken over the job yet.

"The only pity is that there is no news about Tianyi Jinshui yet."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yao felt a little regretful.

Outside his shop, he openly put up a buying list, stating that he was willing to spend a lot of money to buy Tianyi Jinshui, Millennium Chalcedony and several other rare spiritual objects.

His shop is located in Mangshanfang City, and there are many immortal cultivators who come and go, and they will basically see the announcements along the way. This way of buying is far better than Weiguo's market and other channels.

It's just that after several months in a row, there is nothing to gain.

"Thousand-year chalcedony, it's just a chance to hang it up, and I didn't have much hope in the first place."

"The other rare spiritual objects, like the thousand-year-old chalcedony, are almost difficult to buy from the Li Kingdom. The addition is just to confuse the public, just in case."

"It's just a golden water in the sky. At present, Li Guo may not have any stocks, and we have to wait for new production..."

Zhang Yao fell silent, thinking to himself:

The best material for constructing the 'Vajra Mantra Array' is actually the relics of Buddhist monks, and only a little powder is enough.

However, the one who can keep the relics is at least a Buddhist monk in the golden core state. At present, he does not dare to hope to obtain such a precious treasure, so he can only settle for the next best thing and replace it with Tianyi golden water.

Tianyi Jinshui is one of the essences of the five elements, and it is a kind of spiritual thing that is generally needed by those who practice the Jinxing Kungfu.

Tianyi Jinshui is in the depths of some dark iron, black gold, silver refining and other spiritual gold veins, there is a fixed probability that some will be born. Although the grade is not high, the demand is very high, and there are very few stocks.

"There is a vein of Lingjin in Liguo, and Tianyi Jinshui is also produced. The price I offered is not low."

"If you are lucky, you can get it after a few years; even if you are unlucky, you can get it in at most ten years."

As soon as Zhang Yao thought of this, his mentality became more and more peaceful.

The road ahead is at your feet, you just need to wait for the opportunity, and what he lacks most is time and patience.

…………

Eight years later.

One evening, a short and fat old man dressed in brocade clothes came to Mangshanfang City.

Accompanying him were two young monks with somewhat similar faces, and their attitudes towards him were quite respectful.

"Are you sure you're right?"

The short and fat old man looked at the inconspicuous shop in front of him, hesitantly said:

"The shopkeeper here, can you really set up a small gathering spirit array?"

"of course."

A young monk on the left opened his mouth and said:

"The master of this store is Master Zhang, who has high attainments in talismans and formations. Some people have even honored him as the number one formation master in Li Kingdom under Foundation Establishment."

"He has opened a shop here for many years. He has arranged mountain gate formations for several families and sects, including the small gathering spirit formation."

Hearing this, the short and fat old man's expression was relieved, and then he said with a headache again:

"But the family has just moved here, and the foundation has just been established. The place where you will spend Lingshi in the future is the sea."

"Inviting a formation master of this level to make a move, I'm afraid at least a thousand spirit stones..."

Collective organizations such as sects, aristocratic families, and alliances often consume a lot of money while their families have great achievements.

Just like the shopkeepers in the later stage of Qi refining, although they have strong earning ability, they consume a lot of money. The daily practice consumes a lot of spirit stones and spirit pills.

"Fourth uncle, don't worry."

A young monk on the right smiled and said:

"This owner Zhang has been buying Tianyi Jinshui and Millennium Chalcedony for many years."

"If you use Tianyi Jinshui as a reward, I believe it will not be difficult to move him, and you don't need to use many spirit stones."

"Oh?"

When the short and fat old man heard the words, his eyes lit up and he said:
"Then let's go and meet this Master Zhang."

"There is still a lot of Tianyi Jinshui in our treasury."

As he spoke, he took two young monks and walked in the door.

Zhang Yao in the shop received several people, and after chatting for a while, he was overjoyed to learn their intentions.

"It's been almost ten years, and finally there is news of Tianyi Jinshui..."

He was in a happy mood, but there was a look of embarrassment on his face:

"The market price of Tianyi Jinshui is only about one, two, fifty or sixty spirit stones."

"Your Excellency wants to exchange for me to set up a large formation for 15 days and one golden water. The price is a bit low."

Hearing this, the short and fat old man couldn't help showing a hint of embarrassment.

He also knew that it usually took several months to complete the layout of a compound and complex magic circle like the Mountain Gate Great Formation, and it was naturally expensive to set it up once.

He just wanted to take advantage of it, and wanted to take advantage of the other party's thirst for Tianyi Jinshui to suppress the price.

But now... the short and fat old man collected himself and said:
"That's it."

"How about one golden water in 20 days?"

Zhang Yao was slightly startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at the short and fat old man again.

The other party can open his mouth and take out a full 20 taels of Tianyi Jinshui, obviously he can only hold more.

But the other party's family had obviously just moved to Li country, and it didn't seem like they had mastered the spirit gold veins. They should all be in stock, and the number was quite amazing.

"Um……"

Zhang Yao pretended to ponder for a moment before slowly opening his mouth and saying:

"One gold water in 20 days, plus one hundred spirit stones, the deal will be made."

"……OK then."

Hearing the words, the short and fat old man hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

"Okay, then it's settled."

Zhang Yao's heart was relieved quietly, and a smile appeared on his face.

After a while, Zhang Yao and the chunky old man left the shop together, went to the management office of Mangshanfang City, signed a notarized legal deed, and officially established the transaction.

After returning to the store, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious. After the two finalized the details of the cooperation, the short and fat old man took the two young people and left.

After Zhang Yao sent them out, he turned around and began to pack up his things, preparing for the arrangement of the formation.
