Taoist master wants to ascend

There are many shops in Gaoliu County where you can buy daily necessities as well as some rare items, but naturally most towns are not so complete.

***, naturally followed.

In Gaoliu County, a big fair is held every year before the New Year. Businessmen from nearby towns and even neighboring counties will come, making it very lively and prosperous.

But besides the end of the year, there is also a massacre at the end of June every year, before the autumn harvest.

The scale is not as large as that at the end of the year, but it is still very lively.

At dawn, Li Yuan heard the chaotic sounds of people. During the gathering, all urban areas were very lively.

Get up, stand up, wash up...

Li Yuan waited until daylight came up before getting up and going to the market.

Vendors from all walks of life have set up their stalls early, and as soon as day breaks, the streets and alleys are filled with pedestrians.

In addition to the people in the city, people from nearby towns and villages will also come in advance, bringing their accumulated money to buy things needed by the whole family.

Li Yuan found a breakfast stall. The stall owner was a familiar face. When he saw him from a distance, he started to set up shop.

As soon as Li Yuan sat down, the small table was already full.

Rice porridge, hot soup, steamed buns, meat buns, side dishes, and a plate of twenty or thirty eggs.

Since he started practicing martial arts, Li Yuan's appetite has been very large. After the blood circulation, his appetite has increased several times. After eating at this table, he is still only half full.

But he didn't order any more, paid the bill, and walked toward the inner city. He bought some snacks and the like from time to time on the way. He was already full before he reached the inner city.

Li Yuan did the math and found that he actually ate the waiter's money along the way. Although he ate a lot, he also felt the change in prices.

On the roadside, some people are also talking about this. It seems that the court has increased business taxes?

Li Yuan heard a familiar voice and turned around to see that it was the young man from the grandson of the pair who bought the three-yuan sickle years ago.

It's just that this time I didn't see the old man, but a dirty little boy who was looking at him timidly.

The young man sighed:

Li Yuan walked to the stall.

The stall this time was much larger than the one before years ago, and there were many old things. Li Yuan glanced over and saw two inferior scythes, which were poorly controlled.

Good things are rare everywhere, and Li Yuan doesn't care.

Seeing Li Yuan shaking his head, the young man gritted his teeth, turned around, jogged a few steps, and pulled out a rusty iron rod from under the rag covering the donkey cart not far away.

The young man came over carrying an iron rod.

Is there really any good stuff?

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

After half a year, Li Yuan was no longer surprised when he saw a first-level weapon, but he was still a little surprised when he saw the control effect.

Anticipate the enemy ahead?

This seems to be related to actual fighting?

However, compared to this, he was more curious about what kind of village they were.

It's the Three Yuan Army, and it's the Iron Blood Army, the ancient battlefield?

Li Yuan turned around. The trident was of some use to him, but not to others. More than ten kilograms of scrap metal was not worth a penny.

Seeing Li Yuan frowning and about to leave, the young man kept lowering the price. Finally, Li Yuan took away the long stick and two other broken items from the stall for two coins.

These two items are quite strange, a broken bamboo hat and a raincoat, both of which are in disgraceful condition, but the effect of controlling them is quite interesting.

Fishman two-piece set?

Carrying the three remnants of the soldiers, Li Yuan thought that the nearby villages and towns might also be worth visiting.

Maybe really good things won't stay there, but for him, the remnant soldiers can also be controlled, but the effect is often less.

A broken weapon will have at least half less control effect than a intact weapon of the same level.

After walking around the inner city, Li Yuan found that even at this time, there were still people watching at Tongda Bank and several pawn shops, which made him a little surprised.

Qin Xiong died a few months ago, and I heard that Qiu Da has disappeared. Are these government officials so dedicated?

Li Yuan frowned inwardly.

But he was well prepared and was not disappointed. After walking around for a while, he left the inner city.

On the way back to Chaiyufang, he saw Liang Ah Shui who looked very good.

He was wearing shorts, tall and tall, with a rough complexion and a cold face, which gave people a feeling that strangers should not enter. As he strode forward, his aura was already similar to that of Qin Xiong before.

After taking a look at the fish basket he was carrying, Li Yuan's heart moved slightly and he stepped forward to meet it.

Liang Ashui frowned at first, looked at it a few times, and seemed to recognize something:

Li Yuan didn't pay much attention and just looked at the fish basket:

Li Yuan was very curious about the spirit fish.

In the book, he had seen that the so-called spirit fish are a different species of fish, which are very rare and often have unusual effects.

Liang Ashui said, paused slightly:

A fine blade?

Li Yuan thought for a while and agreed:

The horned pomfret is a spirit fish that replenishes vitality. It weighs a little over a kilo per catty, and four jins for two, which costs almost nine taels of silver. This business is not a loss.

After all, spirit fish are very rare, and he is not the only one who can make high-grade weapons in the blacksmith shop.

Liang Ashui agreed simply and left with the fish basket.

A fish was only a few taels of silver. Li Yuan felt a little emotional. Last year, he wouldn't even dare to think about it.

Carrying the remaining soldiers, Li Yuan walked towards Shengjinfang:

…

There are tens of thousands of households in Gaoliu County, and there are 16 in the urban area. There are naturally various ways to exchange 200 taels of silver notes and 200 taels of jewelry.

Even though a lot of people were being stared at, Li Yuan didn't find it difficult.

If you can't open a bank, a pawn shop, a jewelry store, a jewelery store, a silk and satin shop...etc., it won't work, and it doesn't count.

Silver notes and jewelry have always been hard currency.

The Blacksmith Shop controls the ironware trade in many nearby counties, but there are naturally some small-scale blacksmith shops underneath it.

There are many small blacksmith shops in Shengjinfang.

Every year during the big gathering, people from nearby villages and towns come to

He knows how to drive an ox cart and sell all the iron tools and iron materials that are not worth the price of the blacksmith's shop.

There are also well-established businessmen who come here to sell after purchasing.

Many of them can afford his four hundred taels of business.

Among them, Li Yuan had already figured out the way. Before noon, he had bought a thousand kilograms of wrought iron, including pearls and agate at a discount of 220 taels, and he exchanged a banknote for it.

Then, he watched the merchants who had made great gains leave the city before turning back.

After piling the wrought iron at the bottom of the bed, Li Yuan felt a little painful, but was still barely satisfied.

At least, more than half of the materials for Zhangbinglu's promotion have been solved.

With the hammer in hand, Li Yuan took the pill and stood still, with expectations in his heart:

…

…

Early the next morning, Li Yuan went to Zhang Ben's place to exchange for ten taels of gold. Old Zhangtou took good care of him and exchanged it ten to one, which would save at least twenty taels of silver.

But there are conditions.

Lao Zhangtou refused to change his words, and seemed to refuse to change his words if he didn't agree.

Li Yuan was a little helpless.

Zhang Bi mentioned it several times these days, and he didn't want to keep rejecting it, which was why he accepted Liang Ah Shui.

Seeing his precious apprentice agree, Zhang Ben had a smile on his face:

Li Yuan coaxed the old man with good words, at least he had to get the gold first.

Zhang Ben laughed and scolded, but he really couldn't get angry.

Li Yuan said seriously.

With the addition of Dzogchen-level forging skills, his forging skills are improving every day. In at least a year, he is sure to completely digest this great craftsman's hammer, and his forging skills will break through to Dzogchen!

How could Zhang Ben believe this?

The hammering method has some bonuses to the blacksmithing technique, but forging is more than just the hammering method. There are requirements for mineral selection, quenching, and even quenching water temperature and water type. It can be mastered in a year and a half.

Zhang Bi almost blurted out, then reacted and slapped him:

After being hit, Li Yuan felt no pain or itch, smiled, and turned around to the forging room.

He really likes this old man.
