Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 57: Medullary Pill
The star power cleansed by the main star of the sun is lively, expansive and has good ductility.
The star power cleansed by the main star Taiyin is restrained, gentle and very easy to control.
Both the Sun and the Moon are the most ideal main stars for introducing forging talents. However, what Ban Yilou did not expect was that Tang Zheng actually had such a sophisticated ability to control star power!
These two extreme star powers rose and fell in his hands, coordinating seamlessly.
"How did it go?" Tang Zheng asked, looking at his finished product.
"Very good! Very good!" Ban Yilou quickly retracted his gaze and pointed at the silk thread and said, "Next, try a little . The faster the speed, the stronger the silk thread will be."
"Wait a moment..." Tang Zheng took two breaths, "Let me regain my strength."
I don’t know why, but after processing a strand of colorful silk, it feels like I’ve been through a battle.
All the star power in his body was weak and powerless, and he had to rest and recover before he could deal with the next one.
Ban Yilou glared at him: "Really? You can't handle it after just one? "
Tang Zheng almost flipped the table: "You are old, can you speak? What do you mean by 'no more'?"
Ban Yiluo's eyes passed over him and looked at the stars rising behind him.
That half-black, half-white flowing star, and the peaceful coexistence of the sun and moon forces, is a vision that would make even the famous craftsman Lu Huang jealous.
However, the brightness of the stars is obviously not strong enough.
Ban Yiluo only needed to take a glance to determine that Tang Zheng had just entered the intermediate one-star level not long ago.
“You only have a pitiful one thousand strands of star power, and it’s only one star at that. You’re actually using it to process high-end goods like the colorful silk. It won’t be unfair for you to die of exhaustion.” Ban Yilou collected the colorful silk and did not give it to Tang Zheng to process.
"Not enough star power?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Of course it's not enough!" Ban Yiluo replied.
"..." Tang Zheng realized that this was probably a serious problem that could not be avoided!
Just like when forging iron, no matter how skilled the blacksmith is, if he can't swing the hammer, isn't it all nonsense?
No matter how finely he controlled the star power, it could not change the fact that the total amount of star power was insufficient.
"What should we do then?" he asked.
"The colorful silk is only the easiest material to process among the materials you bought. With one star's strength, you need at least three to five thousand strands. Only then can the processed silk be bright in color, continuous and fast!"
Three to five thousand strands of one-star star power is almost enough to reach the high level of one-star or even the peak of one-star.
Tang Zheng estimated that if he continued to cultivate at his current speed, it would probably take another year or so...
After a year or so, it is still a big question whether the person who made a bet with him from Bailianfang is still in Wulong Town, or whether that person still remembers the bet with him!
strength……
It’s strength again!
Without strength, you can’t move forward.
Just like a level 1 player in the game, no matter how great his skills are, he cannot defeat a level 90 boss.
However, in the game, at least there are gold farmers like them who help the gold owner level up, but this is not a game, no one can help him kill monsters and level up...
Strength is indeed a troublesome issue standing in our way!
Just as Tang Zheng was thinking about this serious question, Tang Xiaotang ran in, pointed at the flyer and said to him: "Master, Master, someone wants to buy it..."
"Medullary Pill!" Tang Zheng gave the name of the first item purchased without even looking at what Tang Xiaotang was pointing at.
"Huh?" Tang Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, "How did you know?"
Ban Yiluo was shocked.
He looked at what Tang Xiaotang was pointing at, and it was indeed the Medullary Pill!
The Medulla Pill is used for warriors who have been seriously injured and are bedridden. It stimulates star power and reshapes the body from the inside out. Once the reconstruction is successful, the training speed will be faster and the body will be stronger. However, it has a failure rate of up to 70%, which all depends on personal will!
It can be said that this is an elixir that requires desperate efforts to gain a glimmer of hope of survival!
People who need this kind of medicine will not wait and see once they have the opportunity to buy it. Even if they have to give it a try, they will definitely buy it first.
Therefore, Tang Zheng knew that the Medullary Pill must be the first item to be sold.
"The Yansu Dan cabinet sells purple gold for two and a half taels, but you marked it for ten taels!" Ban Yilou said, putting down the casting notes in his hand.
Tang Zheng seemed not to hear what Ban Yilou said. He pulled out the purple gold order from his neck and hung it around Tang Xiaotang's neck: "Xiaotang, go with the old man to get the goods!"
Tang Xiaotang looked embarrassed: "But... there is... a problem."
"What's the problem?" Tang Zheng asked.
Tang Xiaotang looked at Ban Yilou and said, "The buyer can't afford ten taels of purple gold!"
…
Tang Zheng followed Tang Xiaotang to the door and saw a woman in coarse clothes standing there quietly.
Although the woman was dressed simply, it couldn't hide her delicate features and graceful figure.
And around her, people kept pointing fingers.
"That's Lao Zhao's wife. She said she wanted to buy the medullary pill!"
"Medullary Pill? Ten taels of purple gold? Tsk, it's only thanks to their family that they can afford it..."
"But why did she buy the medulla oblongata? Did something happen to the Zhao family?"
If you hear this sentence somewhere else, it can be regarded as concern.
However, in Wulong Town, asking this question has only one meaning - is Lao Zhao going to die? Can we start to take Lao Zhao's property and his wife?
"Don't you know? Lao Zhao hunted a python in the mountains yesterday and was seriously injured. The python skin was also stolen by Yinlan Mountain Villa. Now it is unknown whether he is alive or dead..."
"Without the medulla oblongata pill, he won't survive tonight, right?"
"But, it's too expensive! Ten taels of purple gold! Tsk tsk."
"Hush, it seems the person in charge has come out..."
"He is from Tangjiabao? How come I have never seen him before?"
"Guest official? Who knows..."
As soon as Tang Zhengyi arrived at the door, he immediately attracted a lot of attention. He quickly scanned the crowd and found that all the servants of Yinlan Villa were gone!
Could it be that he felt humiliated standing in front of the carriage from Tangjiabao?
No, this is not what he wants to see!
"Master, what are you looking for?" Tang Xiaotang saw that Tang Zheng's gaze was not on the main person at all.
"Oh, nothing." Tang Zheng looked away, "She wants to buy the medulla oblongata pill?"
The woman in coarse cloth leaned forward and said, "The master is waiting for the Medulla-Yan Dan to save his life, but he only has eight taels of purple gold. I hope this young master can give a little less..."
Ban Yiluo also came out, looking at the fun, to see whether Tang Zheng would prioritize selling things or choose his "integer obsession".
"Is that so?" Tang Zheng said awkwardly, "For businessmen, price is a matter of principle!"
"Well said." Ban Yiluo applauded in his heart.
Tang Xiaotang nodded as if she understood something.
Just as she was about to ask the woman to leave, she heard Tang Zheng secretly ask her, "Do you know what kind of person Lao Zhao is?"
Tang Xiaotang was stunned: "I have heard a little bit about him. It is said that he has two-star strength and has a group of brothers under him, all of whom make a living by hunting wild animals. They have a very stubborn temper and rarely interact with others. They have also had several conflicts with Yinlan Villa. However, we don't know much..."
The woman saw Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang chatting and joking, and ignored her. Thinking that there was no hope, she gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and unbuttoned her shirt: "I was born in the Yaoshan tribe. If I were unmarried, twenty taels of purple gold would not be too high. Today... although I am married, two taels of purple gold should still be worth it. If you are accepted by the young master, I will work like a cow or a horse for the rest of my life, and never complain..."
Everyone looked at her exposed shoulder in amazement, and saw the pink peach blossom birthmark that was unique to the women of the Yaoshan tribe!
Unexpectedly, the seemingly inconspicuous man from the Zhao family actually has a wife who comes from the Yaoshan tribe, a tribe rich in beauties!
Then, they all looked at Tang Zheng with envy...
But Tang Zheng just glanced at the pink peach blossom birthmark and shook his head.
The eyes of the group of people widened: "A beauty from the Yaoshan tribe! Two taels of purple gold is worth it !"
Tang Zheng still shook his head.
The woman's lips trembled slightly, and the determination in her eyes that she had suppressed for a long time finally turned into despair...
But at this moment, Tang Zheng's voice suddenly came: "Today, our Tangjiabao Jubao Pavilion's purchasing business has just started. We are offering preferential treatment to customers. All goods will be sold at 80% of the original price. This is only for this day. After midnight tonight, it will be invalid..."
The woman raised her head in surprise, her eyes almost piercing Tang Zheng!
If they sell it at 80% of the original price, then she will have just enough to buy...
Moreover, you don’t have to sell yourself!
She almost flew to Tang Xiaotang, took out eight purple gold coins and stuffed them into Tang Xiaotang's hands.
"The master said that he would only take a partial deposit." Tang Xiaotang smiled and took one of the coins, "The rest will be paid after seeing the goods."
As soon as this was said, many other people who had needs also stopped waiting and asked, "Can I only pay 80%? Just pay a deposit before seeing the goods?"
Ah Zhi said impatiently, "Our Master said that it will be invalidated at midnight, so of course it will be sold at 80% of the price before midnight."
In a short while, four more people selected the goods and paid the deposit.
Tang Xiaotang took the deposit and returned to the Treasure Pavilion: "Master, didn't I say that price is a matter of principle?"
Ban Yiluo had a look that said, "This is exactly what I wanted to ask."
Tang Zheng smiled: "Yes, price is a matter of principle. But didn't I tell you that there is a method called promotion?"
