I will survive with proficiency

Chapter 5 A New Way of Making a Living

Chen Ping has been selling meat all morning.

It was a great sell.

"Fellow Daoist, how do you sell this meat?"

"These are first-grade monster meat. A low-grade spirit stone costs ten catties. They are not for retail sale. These are ordinary beast meat. You can get one catty for 10 silver and sell them for retail."

"Okay, give me ten catties of monster meat."

Chen Ping raised the knife and cut a piece without pausing, and handed it to the thin-faced Taoist friend who bought meat in front of the butcher shop:

"Here, ten catties, not more than one tael, not less than one tael."

Hearing this, the thin-faced fellow Taoist was stunned for a moment, and didn't pick up the meat: "You...you don't even weigh it, how do you know it's just ten catties?"

Chen Ping smiled and said:

"My eyes are the ruler."

Face-thin fellow Taoist:? ? ?

If the customer doesn't believe it, then it can only be called.

As a result, it was exactly ten catties, not more than one tael, not less than one tael.

The thin-faced fellow Taoist was dumbfounded, and the other two or three monks standing in front of the booth were also dumbfounded.

this.

amazing.

On the contrary, it was He Xianxiang and several nearby buyers who sold other goods, who had seen Chen Ping's magic, and smiled at the group of stunned meat-buying monks with eyes of "seeing through everything".

I thought to myself, 'You guys have never seen the world too much, have you? '

They completely forgot that they had the same expressions when they first saw Chen Ping's sword skills.

"Give me twenty catties. If you can do a little bit more, a little bit less, I will give you an extra tael of silver." A middle-aged female monk did not believe in evil.

Fine.

A tael of silver is also money.

Fly meat is also meat.

There are only three trading currencies in Lianyun City:

Lingshi, gold, silver.

Gold and silver are not very valuable, and can only be used to buy some daily necessities such as bedding. Ordinary animal meat, ordinary fruits and vegetables can also be bought.

But when it comes to high-end goods produced by monks, such as talismans, magical instruments, even spiritual rice that is indispensable for practitioners, first-level and above monster meat, they are all traded only with spiritual stones.

The ratio of gold and silver to Lingshi is not stable.

But most of the time, dozens or even hundreds of taels of gold may not be able to exchange for a low-grade spirit stone.

Silver is even cheaper.

Chen Ping cooked it in the same way, still with one knife and one piece of meat per person, each weighing twenty catties, no more, no less.

Now everyone is convinced.

More people are buying meat.

A good knife means good meat... This is Aiwujiwuhe's subtle marketing strategy.

"Buy it fast, just order it, and call it a day when it's sold out." Chen Ping accelerated the hunger marketing, and he could go back to liver experience if he sold out early.

"..."

In the following time, Chen Ping only showed slightly better knife skills than the butcher.

Even so, the original sales volume of two people in a day was sold out in half a day, and there was not a single piece left.

Chen Ping thought to himself that luckily he didn't come back from hunting animals to sell them, otherwise how would he dare to buy them so smoothly? At least wear a mask.

Now anyway, everyone knows that he is a wage earner, at most he is proficient at cutting meat.

Don't worry about being targeted by people seeking money.

As for He Xianxiang, the meat that has been sold here for many years probably has connections. Otherwise, how could he persist until now, and he would have been targeted by others.

How to say there is a way to sell meat.

That's the reason.

When it was time to close the stall, a middle-aged monk came over:

"Senior He, I'll get the skin."

He Xianxiang obviously prepared in advance, and handed a bundle of packed animal skins to the middle-aged monk: "It's all here, all of which are top-quality skins, 63 catties, do you want to weigh them?"

"Look at what you said, can't you believe me?" The middle-aged monk chuckled.

After delivering the goods, paid the money, and left in a hurry.

Chen Ping was thoughtful and asked:

"Senior He, what can that friend Daoist do for buying these raw hides just now?"

He Xianxiang packed his things and said:

"These raw hides are very useful. They can be used to make furniture, soft armor, leather bags, and so on."

"But the monk just now didn't buy skins for these things."

"He, it's used to make talismans."

Fupi?

Chen Ping was taken aback.

Immediately he recalled it, and he had this knowledge in reserve.

The base material of talismans can be paper or leather. The base material of low-end talismans is usually paper, but for high-end talismans, paper can no longer withstand the spiritual power and the laws of heaven contained in it.

These high-end talismans must use animal skin as the base material.

yes.

Why didn't I think of it?

You can't draw talismans below the third level of Qi training, but you can make talisman skins.

The talisman skin does not need spiritual power above the third level of Qi training as a support.

"Here, do you make money?" Chen Ping asked directly.

He Xianxiang's tone was full of envy:

"Earn, it's much more profitable than I sell animal meat. But it's difficult. It requires a lot of skills. If you don't have some skills, you can't make the talisman skin well. If you don't grasp a little bit of strength, it will greatly increase the failure rate of the talisman. Even Affects the power of talismans. So although many people have learned leatherworking, very few succeed."

Disaster?

It's hard, there are few competitors.

Isn't this just made for me?

Moreover, if you learn leather making, it is a long-term benefit skill, and you can also use the leather you made yourself to learn how to draw symbols after practicing the third level of Qi.

One contribution, long-term benefits.

Worth the investment.

Chen Ping was not tactful, and asked directly:

"Senior He, can you introduce the monk just now for this junior, I want to learn how to make talisman skins from him, I can pay for it."

He Xianxiang, who was walking side by side with Chen Ping, froze in his footsteps:

"Do you want to learn how to make runes?"

Chen Ping didn't hide it: "I want to try."

He Xianxiang originally wanted to persuade him, saying that it was too difficult, but after thinking about it, it is good for young people to have some ideas, to show that they are motivated, so he stopped the idea of ​​persuasion.

At his age, the level cannot be improved, and the life span is limited. Thinking about these things, he no longer has the intention to study.

Not enough energy, not enough motivation.

"Have you figured it out?" He Xianxiang smiled.

"I want to try." Chen Ping said the same thing.

Actually not try.

It is imperative.

Making talismans is more reliable than the ways to make money he thought of before. You don't need to go out to take risks, you just need to stay at home and make talisman skins.

It is completely in line with the central idea of ​​his sneaky development.

"In that case, let's try it." He Xianxiang said again:

"But you don't need to learn from that monk just now. That monk is half full and can't teach you. If you really want to learn, go to Qi Jianglun in the north of the city to learn."

"However, Qi Jianglun is a snobbish person who likes to hide his clumsiness. Many people go to him to study three or four times, but they can't learn it. A lot of money was wasted."

"But when it comes to leather-making alone, Qi Jianglun's skills are really amazing. Not to mention the top in Lianyun City, he is at least the best."

"But those who are better than him are not willing to teach others, and those who are willing to teach are not as good as him."

"If you want to learn, just pay the tuition once and experience it. If you have this talent, you can go back to study. If you don't have this talent, then stop in time. Qi Jianglun's place is a bottomless pit."

He Xianxiang introduced a lot in one breath.

Chen Ping listened quietly.

Silently wrote down all this.

At the same time, he asked He Xianxiang for Qi Jianglun's address, thinking about taking some time to check it out.
