Chapter 346 Raw Silk(1/2)
But when you sit in the position of Taifu, you already dominate the world and have all the power. Of course, you can joke around. Even if one day the king comes out and says that I found Twilight Sparkle and dedicated it to His Majesty, I'm afraid no one will
Dare to stand up and shout that the patient has escaped.
But Li Fan couldn't laugh like him stupidly, otherwise he might fall out with him, and he'd be guillotined with a "Bold! Discourteous! Drag him out, guillotine!" At that time, he would have no choice but to accept his fate, lie down on the ground and write three words
What a miserable word...
Fortunately, Yao Xuanzhou was also following him, blocking Li Fan directly and handing him the letter:
"I have thanked Duke Shouyang for the reward and sent a letter of reply on behalf of my master. I, Mozhushan, will definitely obey the orders of the Taifu Mansion and protect the safety of Liguo, and prevent the evil cult and evil spirits from causing trouble in Nanbang.
Qingyue, I still have some important confidential matters, which are related to the trend of the divine religion, and I must discuss them with Taifu in secret. You can wait for me outside first."
The Taifu looked bored and shook his head and said, "Xuanzhou, you are really boring. Okay, okay, national affairs are the most important thing. Li Daozi, you should also consider it. It's rare for you to cultivate your skills and spend your best years hiding in Nanshan to learn Taoism. Wouldn't it be a pity?"
?If you are free, you might as well make the ink sword in my hand and leave your name in history."
The Taifu said and raised his hand to deliver something. Li Fan glanced at it, but it was a piece of mutton-fat jade. It was probably a token of entry into the Taifu's house. Yao Xuanzhou also nodded to indicate to Li Fan to accept it.
So Li Fan thanked the master for his appreciation and retreated to the living room to wait. Xuan Tian stayed in the flying boat to look at the gourd because he was worried about being spotted by these Taoists. Li Fan couldn't release his spiritual consciousness in other people's mansions.
From what I had guessed, the service in Taifu's Mansion was good. Not long after I sat down, the waiter brought some refreshments for Qingyue Zhenjun to enjoy.
"This deacon, is there a Zhang Chongyang or Zhang Qianhu in the shogunate? He walks with his nose in the air and speaks very flatly?"
Li Fan was idle, so he casually asked about the bitch with whom he had a relationship. Anyway, now we are all young talents working for the Taifu. You are Qianhu, and I am still a Hou Lie! Who?
Are you afraid of someone?
The waiter raised his head and glanced at Li Fan. While serving tea, he lowered his head and replied, "As for Zhenjun, Qianhu went with the Western Expedition to conquer the Demon Cult of Kun Kingdom. Is Zhenjun a good friend of Qianhu? But
Is there anything you want me to say to you?"
"Oh, no, no, I have a friend who likes not to pay back the money he owes. If he comes to Sanyuan to pay a visit to the Taifu, I will help him to collect the debts. As for me, I like to help my friends the most. Isn't this the case?
Do you want to meet this person?"
Li Fan replied casually, then looked at the waiter out of curiosity, "However, he is serving in the army, how can you still send him a letter and a message? Why, does his surname Zhang also owe you money?"
The waiter smiled politely and said, "Matoro was joking, we just drank together occasionally. I wonder how much money Qianhu owes Masato...'s friend?"
Li Fan drank tea, "Not too much, not too much. If you erase the fraction, it will be less than 100 million... Well, this tea is good, let's have another cup."
The muscles on the waiter's face spasmed for a while, then he forced out a smile and said, "Yes, I'll wait a moment."
So Li Fan stayed for a while, waiting for about a quarter of a stick of incense, and then the attendant came back. In addition to refreshments, a masked maid followed behind him, holding a tray and brought it to Li Fan.
There are five golden dragon hairpins placed side by side.
Li Fan was confused for a moment, "Ah this..."
The attendant smiled and explained, "There are 20 million gold baht in each hairpin, and 100 million coins are here. Please check it, Zhenjun."
Li Fan silently picked up a gold hairpin and checked it. There were twenty large treasure boxes in this storage hairpin. Each box contained thousands of gold bahts the size of pearls. They were all heavy and solid gold, and there was a Condensation Divine Gang on them.
The rune brand of Jinqi, just from the quality of Shen Gang's true Qi, one piece is indeed worth Shen Gang's thousand coins.
"This is Taifu..."
The attendant explained, "I heard that Qianhu owes some gold and silver to Zhenjun's friends, and these are paid back by the Duke's wife."
"Hey...how dare you trouble the Duke's wife..."
"Madam's maiden name is Zhang."
"Oh... I understand." Li Fan paused, put the five gold hairpins into his sleeves and said with a smile,
"Please also tell me, madam, that my friend and Qianhu hit it off right away. They cut off chicken heads, burned yellow paper, became lifelong friends, and became sworn brothers! What else can I use him for in the future, whether it is to hold the moon in the sky or hold the moon in the sky?
If you want to catch turtles from abroad, you just have to give an order. You will do it with all your strength!"
The masked maid nodded, the attendant smiled with her, and the two withdrew.
It's a bit awesome, Xiao Zhang. No wonder there are five gods around him. This is a billion dollars! I'll give it to you if you ask for it! It seems that my family is engaged in mining, so there is really no shortage of this little gold... Well, maybe this is what is called
Let's live...
Li Fan was sore for a while.
Yao Xuanzhou also came out, "Let's go. Tomorrow we can go to Taiweiyuan to receive the title. The Tutor will arrange for a courtesy official to receive him, and we'll just follow the process. We still have to go to Tianshi to buy some resources for Mozhushan."
"
Li Fan's eyes lit up. Going to the supermarket? Great! I just had 100 million yuan and no place to spend it!
Yao Xuanzhou was not so relaxed. When he returned to the flying boat, he worriedly said to himself, "Now that prices have soared, I don't know how much I can buy..."
"You don't have enough money in the prison? Can I lend you 100 million?" Li Fan went to the cabin to step on the gourd. Seeing that he was so worried, he went up to talk to see if he could activate some tasks to increase the camp's reputation.
Yao Xuanzhou shook his head, "Qingyue, I accept your wishes. It's not a question of whether the money is enough, but whether you can buy it... how much, how much??"
Seeing that there was something going on, Li Fan took out the golden hairpin and came to Yao Xuanzhou to see it, "What do you want to buy? Materials for sword refining."
Yao Xuanzhou was speechless when he saw the golden dragon hairpin, "Where did you get so much gold baht... I accept your offer, but this time I mainly went to buy raw silk. Gold people probably don't like it, so I have to use it."
Let’s exchange the elixir refined by the master.”
"Raw silk? Just silk? Do you want to exchange it for elixir?"
Li Fan frowned in confusion for a moment, thinking he heard wrongly.
"Oh, buying silk is a big expense. I used to have to exchange it for a flying sword, if I couldn't get it."
Okay, I heard you right. The Xuantian Iron Egg in the Encyclopedia of Immortal Cultivation has also been officially certified. It is indeed raw silk, the one spun by silkworms.
So I inquired with Xiao Yao and Tiedan for a while, and Li Fan's strange knowledge increased again.
Needless to say, the purpose of silk is that even immortal cultivators have to wear clothes. Masters from the three major sects cannot fight with their bare buttocks, right? What's more, in addition to the body-protecting immortal clothes, those high-quality talismans and scriptures, as well as
There are flags, flags, gauze and other magic weapons, all of which are useful in places where silk is available.
Although the method of raising silkworms has long been popularized in the Central Plains, and the three vassal states of Zhen, Xun and Kun all have a large number of famous silk products, even private households in Li country have silkworms.
But in such a world where immortals and mortals are different, can the silk of ordinary silkworms be the same as the famous silkworms cultivated in the immortal palace?
Although it may look like a fat, white and slimy piece, the fairy silkworm spins is called Tianshi fairy silk. Its silk texture, weaving energy, and spell-making effects are far superior to ordinary silk. Both of them are
The gap can only be described as the difference between a firefly and a bright moon.
Gu Xing
It can be said that the fairy silkworm is the fairy emperor among silkworms!
Ahem, that's too much, but this fairy silkworm is indeed the first batch of domesticated and cultivated spiritual beasts in the ancient Immortal Palace, and has been passed down from generation to generation of immortals.
Unlike the Hidden Dragon Division, which was involved in infighting and was even wiped out and lost. The Miyuan Weaving Division, which specializes in fairy silkworm breeding and silk weaving, has always been regarded as the most closely watched money bag in the Immortal Palace. No matter who does it
Whoever is in charge of the government must be in their hands and protected.
Therefore, after the Hidden Dragon Division was gone, the Suwei Immortal Army was also deprived of dragon meat to refine their bodies, and their status and strength plummeted. However, the Immortal Lord took charge of the Weaving Division and made the silkworms delicious and delicious, and looked after them until they were fat and healthy. It is said that
Nowadays, special species of spiritual insects have even been raised to the level of god transformation, and can even weave magic weapon level silk, which is the level of god transformation. Every time, it attracts Taoist monarchs and gods from all over Xuanmen to bid for the silk.
The Immortal Silkworm is well-deserved and can be called the most important treasure that has maintained the Miyuan Immortal Palace to this day.
Therefore, the infinite glory of the Tianshi Yuan Immortal clan today is absolutely inseparable from these silkworms. Needless to say, if you want to buy some Tianshi silk from Sanyuan, you will have to spend a lot of money.
Yao Xuanzhou was also distressed when talking about this matter, "Well, fairy silkworms need to be cultivated and taken care of from generation to generation, and how to cultivate silkworms that have not yet formed cocoons to the realm of god transformation is also an unheralded secret of the Immortal Palace. Li Guo
There is no such inheritance in the local area, and the folk silk is not of much use at all, and is worse than burning paper charms.
And let’s not talk about the fairy silk at the level of the gods. Tianshi silk is always bought by Xuanmen immediately. Even the top-grade pure silk at the Nascent Soul level is a marketable and priceless treasure. We at Mozhushan want to make it.
Nascent Soul level talismans have always had to be imported from the three countries of Zhen, Xun and Kun.
However, most of Zhenguo's silk farms and silk mills were held in the hands of Penglai. The output of Yuanying-level high-grade raw silk in Sunda was limited. The previous ruler of Sunda also strictly controlled the export of raw silk. From the east, only medium-grade raw silk could be smuggled to Jindan territory.
Silk can only be used reluctantly.
Although Kun Country in the west can trade freely, Kun Country not only has trade routes with Mozhu Mountain, but also Kunlun, Gen Country, and Sanyuan. If you want to buy Kun silk, you have to communicate with the Shen Sect, Nangong Family, and immortals from all over the country.
Loose cultivators and even barbarian merchants from the Western Regions bid for the goods, and the one with the highest price wins. The caravan's goods may be robbed halfway, which is quite difficult and arduous.
But now, even the Silk Road between these three countries has been cut off.
Now even if the entire Mozhushan silk reserve is used to make talismans, if a war really breaks out, it will not be able to sustain the consumption. This time, after finally convincing the Taifu, Mozhushan can also participate in Tianshiyuan as a Xuanmen.
When it comes to the raw silk business, I just can't tell how much I can get."
...Running a sect is so troublesome...Xuan Tian, what do you think?
Xuantian suggested, "It's better to ambush at the door of the store and kill all the buyers."
OK, ignore this advice.
Li Fan suggested, "The nine-turn elixir refined by the temple master is so effective. Maybe there are Xuanmen monks who know the goods and are willing to trade it?"
Yao Xuanzhou shook his head, "It's useless. The silk that has been made into talismans and magic weapons has lost its effect. Many high-quality magical urns have to be secretly made from raw silk. This kind of raw material has always been provided by the sect and sent inner sect elders to carry out large-scale transactions, not to mention those who
Each fairy clan is more cunning than the other, and they must be exchanged for good things.
I would like to ask the Weaving Department to distribute a batch for me for Taifu's sake, but I'm afraid the quantity is difficult to guarantee. Unfortunately, I really don't have many connections in the Immortal Clan, otherwise I would still be able to get around..."
Connections...Does Xuan Tianqian have any friends?
