Vol 2 Chapter 9: money like water

The team led by Tang Zhen made the members of the caravan full of curiosity, and they all guessed where they came from.
Being able to exterminate the Black Wind Bandit is definitely not an ordinary person. In the future, if you will often walk on this road, you must inquire about it clearly.
Of course, at this moment, they didn't dare to ask random questions to avoid getting burned.
In the end, Tang Zhen took the initiative to talk.
"What kind of goods are you selling in this caravan?"
Judging from Tang Zhen's attitude, it was obvious that he was the leader of the team, and the caravan manager naturally did not dare to neglect.
He quickly told Tang Zhen that they were selling salt, sugar and spirits, as well as some daily necessities.
Tang Zhen nodded, and then reported the address of the building.
"The goods you sell, I also have wholesalers there. Not only are the quality better, the goods are more abundant, and the prices are cheaper."
In the store on the cornerstone platform, there are a variety of materials that can be traded in unlimited quantities.
Such a good channel, Tang Zhen will not miss it, ready to buy and then sell, so as to earn a difference.
As long as it is managed properly, there will be huge profits.
Jiuxiang is also afraid of deep alleys. If you want to let others know about this, you must take the initiative to actively promote it.
When the caravan steward heard the words, he immediately smiled and said that he would send someone to check it later.
Whether it will really go, there must be a question mark.
Tang Zhen didn't mind, he believed that it wouldn't be long before some merchants would come to the door.
After separating from the caravan, Tang Zhen led the people to continue their journey for several hours.
When the towering city appeared in front of them, the fellow villagers were relieved, and they felt like a tired bird returning to its nest.
A group of bandits were stunned, looking at the building in front of them, thinking that something was wrong with their eyes.
The Black Wind Bandit is no stranger to the village in front of him. Not long ago, he went down the mountain to rob and passed by this village.
They know all too well that there is no such gigantic building here, just an ordinary village.
Taking a closer look at this building, the city wall is tall and strong, even more powerful and spectacular than the big city a hundred miles away.
The originally depressed Heifeng Bandit became more and more frightened at this moment, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes when he looked at Lou Cheng.
But he didn't want the villagers to speak, and bragged to those bandits.
"I saw this giant city, it was a gift from the immortal to our young master, but in a blink of an eye, this city emerged from the ground..."
The villagers looked proud and told their extraordinary experiences, but they made a group of black wind thieves suspicious.
It is really too unbelievable to say that, folks do say that there are immortals, but how many people have actually seen it?
But if it wasn't for the immortal's action, and the reason for the appearance of the giant city could not be explained, this was not a shack of grass and trees. Without enough manpower and materials, it was absolutely impossible to build it in a short time.
As they approached the building, the bandits became more and more convinced of this statement, and awe-inspiring expressions appeared on their faces.
Although they are thieves, they also have a heart of reverence. They may not be afraid of the official army, but they are definitely afraid of ghosts and gods.
The villagers who were walking at the gate of the city had already taken the initiative to greet them, looking at Tang Zhen and the others in shock.
Before that, they were still worried, for fear that Tang Zhen and others would be in danger, and they were always in a state of fear.
As a result, Tang Zhen and others returned, not only were they unscathed, they even brought back hundreds of black wind bandits.
The ox cart was filled with supplies, apparently the spoils of the trip, and some of the silver ingots had already fallen out.
Uncle Fu looked at Tang Zhen with a happy smile on his face. He didn't care how many trophies he got, he just hoped that his young master would be safe.
"Lock them up and put them in a cell."
Tang Zhen looked at a group of bandits and issued an order coldly.
When Loucheng was just established, Tang Zhen could carry out design and transformation, which was the exclusive authority of the city owner.
He added a magma circulation system to the interior of this building, which can provide enough heat and fire.
Under another city wall, warehouses and cells were designed, which could hold thousands of prisoners.
This design is made in order to prepare for emergencies.
Soon these black wind thieves were taken to the inside of the building and saw an even more shocking scene.
Some thieves had sluggish faces, trembling uncontrollably, and completely believed what the villagers had just said.
This magical giant city in front of him must be the means of immortals. Now that he is captured, he does not know what kind of punishment he will encounter.
Soon he came to the prison cell, which was divided into many rooms and closed by a series of heavy stone doors.
There is also a square fence in the cell, about one meter in size, and the fence is only one fist wide, so you can see the inside of the cell.
The bandits were searched and separated, and they were put into different cells. No one resisted the whole process.
Having seen Tang Zhen's methods, and being shocked by the majesty of the building, the Black Wind Bandit has temporarily lost the courage to resist.
From this group of bandits, Tang Zhen picked out a few women and asked them to do some work with them.
For example, cooking for bandits, tidying up and cleaning up cells, and taking care of hundreds of people.
Bringing these thieves back is naturally of great use, rather than killing or mistreating them.
A few residents were specially dispatched to guard these black wind bandits, and Tang Zhen went to the backyard alone.
Entering the secret room and launching the cornerstone platform, Tang Zhen chose to recharge.
The gold and silver that he brought back disappeared in an instant, and Tang Zhen's shriveled pocket became full again.
He first spent five thousand taels to buy a storage ring with a space of about one hundred cubic meters.
With this ring, it will be more convenient to do things in the future.
Tang Zhen didn't know whether the price was expensive or cheap, but he always felt that he was picking it up.
If there is no cornerstone platform, even if it costs 500,000 taels of silver, it may not be possible to buy a storage ring.
With five thousand taels of silver left, Tang Zhen was ready to continue to strengthen his own strength.
Mastering two sets of perfect martial arts did not satisfy Tang Zhen, thinking that he could go further.
Only if you are strong enough, you can face all challenges.
Tang Zhen has no right to buy the advanced skill jade card now, and the hint is that the level cannot meet the requirements.
Even if the requirements are met, he may not be able to afford it.
After some selection, Tang Zhen chose a set of exercises called Xiantian Ziyang Gong, which cost 3,000 taels of silver.
After using the skill jade card, you can directly advance to the innate realm, and swallow a trace of innate purple energy to nourish the soul.
This set of cultivation techniques belongs to the secret technique of building the foundation of martial arts, which can maximize the functions of the physical body.
If you practice to the perfect state, you will be able to breathe and absorb purple energy. If you don't practice, you can only strengthen your body.
Tang Zhen did not need to practice to reach the perfect state, which saved a lot of time.
After seeing Tang Zhen's introduction, he became more and more sure of his inference that the skill jade card was simply a free gift.
Such a powerful technique was only sold for 3,000 taels of silver, which was obviously a benefit to himself.
Tang Zhen made up his mind, bought the skill jade card directly, and chose to use it on the spot.
The familiar feeling reappeared, and in a very short period of time, his body had undergone tremendous changes.
The perfect effect of the cultivation method is directly reflected in his body.
There are eight extraordinary meridians, and two meridians are appointed as governors, and the true qi flows freely.
Break the entrance of life and death, take the second bridge between heaven and earth, and enter the innate realm in an instant.
At this moment, Tang Zhen seemed to have gotten rid of the invisible shackles, and there was a feeling of fluttering.
An indifferent temperament appeared in Tang Zhen's body, and at a glance, he knew that he was different from ordinary people.
He stretched out his hand and flicked it lightly, and a dark energy shot out three feet, the strength was enough to pierce the stone.
Tang Zhen is very satisfied with his own changes. Even if he encounters a martial arts cultivator, he is confident enough to suppress it easily.
Just harvested 10,000 taels of silver, and only one-fifth of it was left in an instant. The cornerstone platform is really a beast that swallows gold.
With the remaining 2,000 taels of silver, Tang Zhen was going to buy a batch of firearms to arm his residents and deter the enemy.
Buy another batch of living materials and distribute them to the residents of Loucheng as welfare to change their spiritual outlook.
I can no longer be like before, wearing a tattered shirt, so that people can see that they are poor at a glance.
As a resident of Loucheng, you must not be looked down upon, you must be envied by everyone.
