Six months later, Lu Ranting had news passed back to the family.
About the Zhujidan recipe, there are results.
After reading the letter, Lu Chaoxi's breathing was a little short-
There is Zhukidan inside!
Lu Ranting has been in contact with a number of forces in the past year or so, and has basically figured out who will need the formula for Jidan, and also figured out what the other party can give.
These things, she made a list and sent them back home.
And when Lu Chaoxi saw the "Zhu Ji Dan" written in the list, he couldn't leave his sight.
Those third-order magical instruments, pills, formulas...These things are rare and precious things, but compared with Zhu Jidan, they are far behind.
With Jidan, the family is very likely to add a monk during the foundation construction period!
Lu Ranting may also understand this. The introduction of other things is more concise, and the one about Zhu Jidan is full of paper.
This Zhujidan comes from Husheng Trading Company.
Husheng Commercial Bank is one of the two major chambers of commerce in Feiyun Prefecture, and is as famous as Feiyunxing.
In fact, whether it is Husheng Trading Company or Feiyunxing, the two largest chambers of commerce in Feiyun Prefecture are controlled by Qingfengmen. The difference is that Feiyun is generally engaged in the internal business of Feiyun State, while Husheng Commercial is mainly engaged in the business of connecting Feiyun State and Selangor in the north.
The one who wants to buy the Zhujidan formula is a family in the northern part of Selangor.
The situation in Selangor is completely different from that in Feiyun. Feiyun Prefecture is the sole leader of the Qingfengmen. There are no other sects. There are only various affiliated families, obedient and attached to the Qingfengmen.
There are three great powers in Selangor, and because of its proximity to the northern snowfields, there are often white ghosts on the snowfields that are harassed by the army of white ghosts going south.
The strength of these three schools is similar, only the Baiyangmen clan has a golden core monk, who is faintly the leader of the three forces, but in fact, they are all vassals of the Qingfengmen.
The main reason is that there are too many white ghosts in the northern polar ice field. These monsters will go south to attack human territory almost every year, and every few big years, there will be a big wave of white ghosts. Under this pressure, the three famous sects in Selangor could not breathe at all and could only ask for help.
Feiyun State, next to Selangor, is their important target for help.
Qingfengmen also knows the truth about the death of lips and teeth, and every major disaster will provide support to neighbors in the north.
But this kind of support is not free. Because of this, the three northern gates naturally need to rely on Aomine gate very much. Although it is independent in name, it has actually become a vassal.
Without the support of Qingfengmen, the barren and war-torn part of Selangor could not support so many monks and could not maintain the defense line against the white ghosts of the northern ice plains.
The task of Husheng Trading Company is to maintain business communication between Feiyun State and Selangor.
Although Selangor is barren, there are also some special products, such as the white ghost's soul orb, which can be used as something similar to the demon pill, although it needs to be processed in advance; some special treasures of Selangor can also be transported. Go to Feiyun State in exchange for a lot of resources.
The one who shot this Jidan was a big family in Selangor. Husheng Commercial Bank did not disclose the specific one, but Lu Ranting still inquired out-Gongsun Clan of Liao County.
The Gongsun family is the weakest of the three sects in Selangor, and also the only family among the three sects. The other two are both sects. Seventy years ago, there was a Golden Core monk in the Gongsun clan, but he died in the large-scale southward movement of the White Ghost Group that year, and the family was greatly affected.
But they are much better than the Lu family. After all, they are a family that has passed on for thousands of years. After the death of the Jindan ancestor, there were six Qiming monks and more than thirty foundation-building monks.
Lu Ranting was wondering at first, how could a thousand-year-old giant like Gongsun not have the formula for Jidan? After inquiring carefully, I learned a little about it.
They used to have it, but it was lost.
Fifteen years ago, another white ghost stormed, and Liaoshan Pass where Gongsun was located was breached. Although it was quickly regained, the family treasury was destroyed and the alchemy was gone. The monk who learned the alchemy also died that year.
In this way, the Gongsun clan cultivating foundation-building monks became troublesome. To build foundation-building monks, he could only find a way to do it from the other two or from Qingfengmen. The cost was much higher.
Over the years, they have been buying and building Jidan Fang in the Quartet, but they are rare for a while. There are not many forces that have the formula of Zhuji Dan, and most of them, after obtaining the Danfang from others, have signed an agreement not to allow secondary sales.
In this world of comprehension, the agreement signed with the soul is very effective, and it's violent to death.
So, Gongsun’s request to purchase the Zhujidan formula was so delayed.
Lu's formula was obtained from Lu Qing. They have not signed an agreement with any power that does not allow secondary sales, so they can naturally sell it at will.
Gongsun’s price is also very fair. The price of Danfang is eight thousand spirit stones, which is much higher than the average value estimate. And they can provide Jidan for 10,000 yuan, and only need to make up two thousand spiritual stones to get one.
Zhuji Dan prescription medicine is more expensive than the Zhuji Dan formula, which is also normal. Among the elements that make up the Jidan, the most expensive and rarest is the material. The Millennium Golden Lotus requires a thousand years of planting in the third-order medicinal garden; the third-order demon pill is difficult to get Qiming monks to work hard. Compared with these two things, pill recipes and alchemists are relatively easy to find. Especially the Danfang, many companies have it, and the Danfang is not a real thing and can be resold.
It's like Gongsun's family without a pill, and it's not impossible to get Jidan, it's more expensive than refining it yourself. It's just that their demand is relatively large, and they can save a lot by doing it themselves. This is why they need Danfang.
In Lu Ranting's view, the Gongsun clan and the Husheng firm, which represents the Gongsun clan, are the best trading partners.
The Gongsun clan is a well-known family for a thousand years~EbookFREE.me~ Husheng can be regarded as a semi-official firm in Feiyun Prefecture. There is Qingfengmen at the back as an endorsement. Both of them can be regarded as a big business. Pay attention to credibility. There is a certain degree of protection to do business with them.
At the same time, Zhu Jidan is also something the family needs. There are not a few cultivators in the ninth-level family, but they are all stuck here because it is rare to build Jidan.
It's not that no one has tried to make a breakthrough without building a jidan, especially since there is a successful case like Lu Mingchao here. But when the Lu Family tragically killed three monks in a row in the breakthrough, the rest of the family were also terrified.
For the ninth-level cultivator, even if he doesn't risk a breakthrough, there are still sixty people who live well. Moreover, monks are different from ordinary people. Ordinary people are already too old when they live in their sixties or seventies, but monks don't. A 110-year-old female monk looks like a girl in her early twenties, with a high quality of life.
Because of this, many people don't have the courage at all, and are desperate to die to try to break through without building a foundation. And without such courage, or not in the mood, forcibly breaking through, the success rate is almost zero.
Lu Ranting has always felt that she is not a brave person, but when she faced this challenge, she also flinched under various struggles.
On this level, Jidan is a must for most ninth-level cultivators.
The family lacks this kind of necessities, and it has been almost forty years. In these years, apart from Lu Ming Dynasty, no new foundation-building monks appeared in the Lu family.
This is a kind of despair, and it will bring a very bad idea to all the lower-level monks in the family: There is no future for practicing in the family.
This kind of despair, the sooner you break it, the better!
There are two more chapters in the evening, so please ask for a recommendation first!
