The Longevity Martial Arts Path: Starting with the Five Elements of Health

"good."

Su Changkong moved in his heart and nodded in agreement.

"How much?"

The sheep-faced mask man once again inquired through voice transmission.

"How much is needed... at least twenty pounds."

Su Changkong didn't hide it either, and he also secretly communicated with him through voice transmission.

"Does this person want to use star-patterned gold to create a superb weapon?" The sheep-face mask man was obviously stunned.

Under normal circumstances, even if someone buys star-patterned gold, it is enough to buy one or two taels. If you integrate it into a weapon, you can create a high-quality weapon.

As for the whole weapon made of star-patterned gold? That would be sky-high!

In the entire Dafeng City, it is estimated that only a few people such as the four leaders of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry and the state owner Pei Yang can be so extravagant.

It is said that the state lord Pei Yang has a set of battle armor made entirely of star-patterned gold. It cost at least three or four hundred catties of star-patterned gold.

20 catties of star-patterned gold, although it is not at this level, it is not affordable for ordinary people.

The sheep-face masked man lowered his head and pondered. After a while, he looked up at Su Changkong and said, "Yes, but I have a request."

"Um?"

Su Changkong was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't hold out hope. He felt that even though the man in the sheep-face mask had star-patterned gold on his hands, the amount would not be large, but the man in the sheep-face mask seemed to have a way to get so much star-patterned gold. , but he has other requirements.

"Let's hear it." Su Changkong asked. First, let's hear what the man with the sheep face mask wanted.

The man with the sheep face mask said in a hoarse voice: "I really can't get 20 catties of star-patterned gold at one time, so I need to trade in multiple times! I trade once a month, and I will give you 2 to 5 catties of star-patterned gold for each trade. , you give the corresponding money until both of us have paid for the goods!"

The sheep-face mask man has a channel to get star-patterned gold, but it is impossible to get 20 catties of star-patterned gold at one time, so it takes time and is divided into multiple transactions.

"Okay." Su Changkong agreed without thinking too much. He didn't expect twenty catties of star-patterned gold to be collected in one go.

"Second... The cost of making star-patterned gold is very high, and I have to take a lot of risks and manage it everywhere. If it doesn't work, I will lose money. Therefore, the price of each or two of star-patterned gold is calculated at 15,000 taels of silver!"

The man with the sheep face mask made a second request.

One tael of star-patterned gold is equal to a thousand taels of gold, which is 10,000 taels of silver. This is the price circulating in the black market, but the star-patterned gold that Su Changkong needs is not one or two taels, but twenty pounds!

It is very difficult to get so much star-patterned gold. The man with the sheep-face mask directly increases the price to 15,000 taels of silver and one or two pieces of star-patterned gold, which is 50% more expensive than the price circulating in the black market!

"11,000 taels, not a single cent more." Su Changkong was naturally reluctant to spend so much money, he said decisively.

"I can give you something cheaper, 14,000 taels." The sheep-face mask man bargained with Su Changkong.

"Forget it. I don't want such an expensive star gold. It's a big deal to spend more energy and time buying it elsewhere. Goodbye."

Su Changkong stood up, patted his butt, turned and walked out of the ghost city.

One step, two steps, three steps... ten steps.

"Wait!"

Not surprisingly, the voice of a man with a sheep face mask came from behind.

Su Changkong stopped and looked back at him.

"One or two star-patterned gold 12,000 taels of silver... It can't be any lower."

The sheep-face mask man helplessly entered the secret, telling Su Changkong his bottom line.

"Then 12,000 taels." Su Changkong did not continue to bargain, but nodded and agreed. He knew that it would not be easy to get a lot of star gold. If this sheep-face masked man had a way, Su Changkong would also be willing to spend one more 20% of the money saves trouble.

"The transaction will be conducted on the 18th of next month. The first transaction will be located at Dafengling, and after each transaction, the second transaction will be determined."

The sheep-face mask man and Su Changkong set the time and place of the transaction.

"Can."

Su Changkong nodded, the sheep-face masked man was very cautious, not only divided into multiple transactions, but also changed the location of each transaction.

After the agreement was over, Su Changkong did not stop, and left with the man in the sheep-face mask.

"This man with a sheep face mask has a way to get star-patterned gold... But I actually don't have enough money. 20 catties of star-patterned gold, based on 12,000 taels of silver and one tael, I have to pay 2.4 million taels of silver to buy the rest of the medicinal materials before. It cost me a little of my savings, and the 300-year-old blood jade ginseng still doesn't know how much it will cost, conservatively estimated between 500,000 taels of silver and 1 million taels of silver."

Su Changkong calculated the consumption. He had to have at least 3 million taels of silver in order to handle these things. He obviously didn't have enough money now.

"I can rely on alchemy to make money. It will take a few months and a half a year. With a little hard work, it should be no problem to earn 3 million taels of silver."

Su Changkong did not forget the skills he was good at.

Alchemy is a skill that burns money in the early stage. An accomplished alchemist has to invest a large amount of resources in order to cultivate it.

When Su Changkong was in the Giant Whale Gang, his main business was alchemy. His alchemy skills had already reached the peak of the 6th realm, and he could make this money by refining and selling them!

There may be a lot of changes. For example, the man with the sheep face mask has bad intentions and may not really be able to get enough star gold, but wants to find someone to ambush him and plot against his property.

However, Su Changkong hoped that the man with the sheep face mask would really do this! At that time, it was not necessarily who robbed who!

Confidence comes from strength.

With Su Changkong's current strength, in the vicinity of Dafengzhou City, apart from the few top powerhouses, it is actually difficult for anyone to threaten him, and powerhouses with such powers can't see such benefits.

Of course, everything is done with caution and adaptability!

Agreed with the sheep face mask man, the next step is to make money.

After leaving the ghost city, Su Changkong rented a secluded manor in Dafengzhou City as a place for alchemy. Then he purchased the alchemy furnace and other items for alchemy, and set up the alchemy room, which didn't cost much.

Su Changkong decided that the medicinal pill to be refined was Qi and Blood Pill. Benefiting from the previous demand for impacting the Qi and Blood seven changes, Su Changkong had a high level of proficiency in refining Qi and Blood Pill, and the probability of refining a pill would be higher.

Not only that, Qi and Blood Pills are also needed by 90% of the warriors. Body-building warriors need Qi and Blood Pills to enter the Qi and Blood Realm, and Qi and Blood Realm warriors also need Qi and Blood Pills to complete blood refining. Effective, the demand is large, and it will be easier to sell!

Su Changkong changed his makeup and went out to buy medicinal materials. He was very careful and purchased from different stores.

After purchasing, Su Changkong observed if anyone was following him, deliberately took a detour, and returned to the manor after a few laps.

"Start alchemy!"

Su Changkong began to refine Qi and Blood Pill, and put all kinds of pills into the pill furnace. He was already familiar with the steps and details of refining Qi and Blood Pill.

Su Changkong wants to challenge his limit of earning ability!

Su Changkong estimated that his average success rate of Qi and Blood Pills is about 3. He works overtime and spends all his martial arts training time on alchemy. If he can make ten pots of Qi and Blood Pills in one day, the average is 30 Qi. Blood Dan becomes Dan!

As for one Qi and Blood Pill, Su Changkong can sell it at a lower price, which is easy to sell, and sells in large quantities with small profits but quick turnover. Even if it is made for 1,500 taels, 30 Qi and Blood Pills are worth 45,000 taels of silver!

After deducting the cost, the cost is 30,000 taels of silver. In other words, the net profit is 15,000 taels a day, which is 450,000 taels of silver a month!

This is undoubtedly a number that can make ordinary people breathe stagnant, and it can be called a money printing machine that makes money every day.

The vast majority of alchemists can do it without losing money, even if they are skilled in alchemy.

This is the horror of high-level alchemists, and it is also the limit of Su Changkong's ability to make money now!

Of course, this consumes Su Changkong's time and energy. With such a high-intensity alchemy, he doesn't even have time to practice martial arts every day, which is equivalent to exchanging his training time for money.

The time of a martial artist of Su Changkong's level is difficult to buy with money.

But in order to refine the Demon Martial Pill, Su Changkong only had to work hard for a while.

Su Changkong started alchemy, which could be described as sleepless nights. Every day, apart from eating, sleeping for a while to recover his energy, and practising Wuqinxi in the morning and evening, the rest of his time was spent on alchemy.

One month has passed, Su Changkong has worked hard for a month, and his remaining 800,000 to 900,000 taels of silver have been used up, and the harvest of all this is nearly 900 Qi and Blood Pills!

This is undoubtedly an exaggerated figure.

"I'm so tired... Take a night off today, go to the ghost market tomorrow, and sell all the medicine pills!"

Su Changkong looked at the ninety vials containing Qi and Blood Pills. He took a bath, lay down on his head, and began breathing in the Turtle Breathing Exercise to restore his strength and spirit.

Su Changkong is really penniless now, he needs to sell all these Qi and Blood Pills in the ghost market, exchange them for money, then buy medicinal materials, open the furnace to make pills, and maintain his limit of earning ability!

If you think about it carefully, if you put so much energy and effort into refining the Demon Martial Pill and fail, it is like drawing water from a bamboo basket, and the blow is really heavy!

However, Su Changkong was not a fledgling boy long ago, even if the Yaowu Pill refining really failed, he would still be able to bear the blow!

It's going to be hard for a few years at most...

"Think about failure before you even start? That's not good!"

Su Changkong shook his head speechlessly, dispelling these distracting thoughts, no matter whether he succeeded or failed, he had to put all his efforts into it.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to the second night, the day when the ghost city opened every month and half of the month. Su Changkong left Dafeng City early in the morning with a package full of Qi and Blood Pills. A thousand years ship.

At night, the full moon hangs high.

The Donglin Mountain Ghost Market is open as usual. People who hide their identities on the street come and go. There are also stalls selling some things that are not easy to sell on the market. 's attention.

However, at this time, everyone on the streets of the ghost city couldn't help being attracted by one person, without him, just because this person was too eye-catching!

He is nearly two meters tall, with big shoulders and round waist, and his muscles are knotted. He stretched his loose robes to bulge, and the outline of the muscles under the clothes can be clearly seen. He wears a bull-headed mask on his face, and he walks like a tiger.

Mighty! Tough! hard!

This is the first feeling this bull-headed mask person gives.

Even though most of the people who practice martial arts are tall, this bull-headed masked man is still a burly one who stands out from the crowd, and is clearly visible to the naked eye!

"Who is this person? I've been in the ghost market for a few months, and it's impossible not to be impressed by this person. Is this the first time I've come to the ghost market?"

"Gu dong... Where did such a stubborn man come from? I can't stand it! This chest muscle is too big and too attractive!"

A tall, burly man in a bull-headed mask walked by, attracting the attention of many people on the street, all of whom paid attention.

This cow-head masked man is naturally Su Changkong. This time, he made more preparations. Not only did he hide his appearance and identity, but he also used the giant whale technique to absorb water, inhaling a breath of water and accumulating in the body, causing his body to skyrocket. He was tall and tall, and now he is one of a thousand in a thousand burly!

In the case of long whales absorbing water, as long as Su Changkong doesn't exercise vigorously or use his hands, there is no consumption, and it is no problem to maintain this state for several hours.

"Ding ding ding!"

Su Changkong sat down on the side of the street, put the bag on his back on the ground, and opened the package, which contained ordinary porcelain vases, which made a crisp sound when they collided and rubbed.

"Selling Qi and Blood Pills! Qi and Blood Pills are on sale! Quantities are limited, first come, first served!"

Then Su Changkong cleared his throat, and then shouted like a hawker in a stall, his voice rough.

This voice was particularly harsh and startling in the silent ghost city. People who came here did not want to attract attention. Such a loud shout immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Su Changkong also knew that it was impossible not to attract the attention of others by selling such a large amount of Qi and Blood Pills, so he simply behaved calmly!

"Huh? Selling Qi and Blood Pills?"

And the information revealed in Su Changkong's shouting voice also caused many people to nod slightly.

Many alchemists who are beginners in alchemy, the quality of the alchemy they make is extremely poor, and they are not easy to sell on the market. They usually choose to sell them at a low price in the ghost market. In their opinion, this tauren should be the same.

But still some people are attracted.

A man wearing a chicken face mask came over and made a high-pitched voice: "Qi Xue Dan? How to sell it?"

"10 per bottle, 15,000 taels per bottle, not just for sale!"

Su Changkong replied in a stern voice.

"One 1,500 taels of silver?"

The man with the chicken face mask was noncommittal.

A Qi and Blood Pill costs 1500 taels of silver, which is actually very cheap. In Dafeng Prefecture, there are only a few forces that can sell Qi and Blood Pills, and they are all limited in production, limited supply, and in short supply. The blood pill is between 2000 and 2500 taels of silver.

The Qi and Blood Pills sold by the Tauren in front of them are probably of low quality, otherwise they would not be sold at such a low price.

The man with the chicken face mask then said, "Can I open the bottle and check it?"

"Please." Su Changkong naturally did not refuse this.

The man with the cock face mask opened the cork, and a strong medicinal scent came out from the cork, making people's blood boil and feeling comfortable all over!

"This...this Qi and Blood Pill..." The man with the chicken face mask poured out a Qi and Blood Pill and put it in the palm of his hand to examine it carefully. He suddenly widened his eyes and couldn't believe it, "This quality...is better than mine. Are the Qi and Blood Pills better from the Feng family shop?"

Under normal circumstances, alchemists are only cultivated by big families and powerful forces, and most of the medicinal pills refined by the cultivated alchemists are digested internally, and a small part is sold.

Therefore, in Dafeng Prefecture City, the only people who can sell Qi and Blood Pills are some big forces and big families.

Qi and blood pills that can be bought in the black market are usually of average quality.

However, when the man with the chicken face mask saw this blood-red blood-red, round, medicinal-scented Qi and Blood Pill in his hand, he was stunned. Where is this low-quality Qi and Blood Pill? Even the best quality Qi and Blood Pill he had ever seen was definitely from the hand of an alchemy master!

"You just said...how much?"

The man with the chicken face mask swallowed and couldn't help but ask again, the quality is better, but the price is lower?

"15,000 taels a bottle, a bottle of ten pieces, I don't like repeating a sentence a third time!"

Su Changkong responded lightly, appearing to be very arrogant and domineering.

"A bottle... give me a bottle!"

After confirming that the man with the chicken face mask, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and immediately took the money from his arms, for fear that Su Changkong would go back on it.

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand, Su Changkong completed the first order of business!

"There is selling Qi and Blood Pill over there. The price is cheaper than the market, and the quality is better than the one on the market?"

This scene shocked the people around.

"Could it be Tuo? The two know each other and want to deceive us. This is a ghost market. Which one is not a human being here? Who would be fooled like this?"

There were also smart people who sneered, thinking that the man with the chicken face mask and the tauren were in the same group.

"Huh? The quality of this Qi and Blood Pill... is higher than that of Lingyao Zhai?"

"Only one thousand and five?"

But there were also people who came to see the situation in person, and they were shocked. The quality of the medicinal herbs could not be faked!

"15,000 taels of silver in a bottle of ten pieces! Not just for sale! High quality and low price! Quantity is limited, first come, first served!"

Su Changkong took the opportunity to shout.

More and more people are gathered here, and they are all unbelievable. There are nearly a hundred bottles of Qi and Blood Pills in this booth, all of which are of excellent quality. To make people suspect whether there is fraud!

"The quality of your Qi and Blood Pill is so good, yet it's so cheap? Are you sick!"

Someone couldn't help but ask, could it be that the prodigal son of a big family stole the family's medicine store and sold it?

"I like it, it's none of your business! Go away if you don't buy it!"

Su Changkong had a rough and irritable appearance. Anyone who dared to provoke him would burst out. Coupled with that mighty and burly body, and the ferocious bull-headed mask, it was quite intimidating, scaring the person who spoke up to retreat.

"And the one over there, just look at it, don't lick it with your tongue!" Su Changkong was busy.

"I'll buy a bottle! No...two bottles!"

"I don't have enough money, I only have enough to buy two... Xiongtai over there, you also want to buy Qi and Blood Pills? Why don't we buy a bottle together?"

The pot exploded at the scene. Qi and blood pills of such good quality were sold so cheaply. After passing this village, there would be no such shop. Su Changkong's stall was surrounded by water, and most of the people in the ghost market were surrounded. Come over, many people have shot to buy.

Those who can come to the ghost market are basically not ordinary people, they are all relatively wealthy, and Su Changkong sells them cheaply, so there is no need to worry that no one will buy it!

"Damn it! How dare you steal it on my head?"

There were also people who wanted to fish in troubled waters. They reached out from the crowd and grabbed the porcelain bottle filled with Qi and Blood Pills, but Su Changkong snorted coldly, reached out and grabbed the man's wrist with one hand, and squeezed it hard.

"Ahhh! Lord Niu... I was wrong, let go... Forgive me!"

Accompanied by the sound of broken bones and shrill screams, the man's wrist was shattered, screaming again and again, crying and begging for mercy.

"If it wasn't for making money with peace, I would tear you apart! Get out!"

With a thick throat, Su Changkong threw his murderous-eyed hand out of the crowd like a chicken. Combined with the bull-headed mask on his face, it made people feel chills, and unconsciously felt fear in their hearts!

It's like seeing a demon king in a cow!
