Chapter 37: Preparing supplies (please follow up!)
The next morning.
Yang Fang came to a shop.
“Has the price of Qi Nourishing Pill increased?”
"Yes, the cold winter is coming, and the resources from outside are now difficult to come by. Everything will rise, and now there are a group of outsiders, making resources even tighter. The Qi Nourishing Pill now costs seven taels of silver."
The shopkeeper said.
Yang Fang frowned secretly.
I should have known earlier that I shouldn’t have made such an early deal with the Blue Star people.
He still has 38 taels of silver left on him, plus 1185 copper plates.
“Let’s get three bottles of Qi-nourishing pills first.”
Yang Fang said.
He took out 21 taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the counter.
The shopkeeper immediately took out three bottles of well-packaged Qi-nourishing pills and handed them to Yang Fang.
After careful inspection, Yang Fang put away the Qi Nourishing Pill and walked towards other areas of the street. He glanced around and found a trace of chaos.
Many people are spending money on the streets to buy rice, noodles, vegetables and other things that can fill their stomachs.
His body stopped, thinking in his mind.
Although he is now backed by the Black Tiger Gang and the Black Tiger Gang provides him with food and drink, what should he do if one day the Black Tiger Gang cannot hold on?
After careful consideration, Yang Fang still spent one tael of silver to buy hundreds of kilograms of rice for emergency needs.
After storing the rice properly, he walked to a weapons shop and spent eight taels of silver to buy a set of soft armor, and another 200 wen to buy 100 steel needles.
After that, he went to a place where martial arts were sold.
He now has the last 8 taels of silver left on him. Even if he wants to buy secret books, he can only buy these street stalls.
He couldn't afford the secret books in the store no matter what.
“How can I sell this Snow Stepping Skill?”
Yang Fang picked up a secret book on the ground, flipped through it, and asked.
“If the guest wants it, just 4 taels of silver.”
The stall owner looked at Yang Fang and said.
“Four taels? Isn’t it too expensive?”
Yang Fang frowned, "I can go to some shops to buy it for 4 taels of silver."
Subconsciously, he was about to put down this book of walking on the snow and prepare to visit other places.
“Hey, wait a minute, how much can you give me?”
The stall owner spoke.
“2 taels!”
"make a deal!"
The stall owner immediately stuffed the snow-stepping skill into Yang Fang's arms and said impatiently, "Get the money quickly."
Yang Fang looked stunned.
Fuck, I was sloppy.
Looking at the expectant gaze of the stall owner, Yang Fang's mouth twitched, but he still took out two taels of silver from his arms.
The stall owner hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but Yang Fang clenched his palm and suddenly said, "Wait, let me ask you something again, is there any place selling highly toxic poisons nearby? I mean it can poison the fourth grade, or even the fifth grade. The poison of the master!"
The stall owner looked at Yang Fang in surprise.
The poison that kills masters of the fourth and fifth levels?
What does this guy want to do?
"What are you thinking about? If there is such a poison, all the major forces will go crazy, and this thing can be spread? Don't even think about it!"
The stall owner said.
“Is the poison that poisons third-level masters available for sale nearby?”
“There are arsenic and crane crown red, but I don’t know if they can poison a third-level master. Anyway, I haven’t tried it. If you want to buy it, you can buy it at the shop over there.”
The stall owner pointed a way to Yang Fang.
Yang Fang took a look, nodded slightly, and paid the money to the other party.
Next, he walked directly towards the shop not far away.
But the impact on the fourth-grade masters is already minimal.
“If you want to enhance the toxicity, there is nothing you can do. Many tonics themselves contain toxicity. If you are proficient in medical science, mixing some toxic tonics with crane crown red and arsenic may have unexpected effects.”
The shopkeeper said.
“That’s it”
Yang Fang thought about it and said, "Okay, thank you so much, shopkeeper!"
He still bought a bottle of Hedinghong and arsenic from the other party, spending another 500 Wen.
Next, Yang Fang returned to the shop and devoted himself to daily practice.
After returning, he directly focused on internal strength and footwork, trying to practice his footwork to the level of entering the palace as soon as possible, so that he would be much safer when encountering changes in the future.
In addition, he also began to study the method of launching concealed weapons.
Anyway, he has a proficiency panel. As long as he keeps firing, he will reach 100% accuracy sooner or later.
As for pharmacology, he took the time to consult the doctor in the front hall, specializing in some highly toxic drugs.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Within three days, there were more and more strange faces in the settlement, all kinds of resources were being robbed faster and faster, and the prices of almost everything were rising, especially the price of rice and noodles, which had risen by as much as 50%.
Even the number of murders at night began to increase.
The most terrifying incident involved a direct fight between two suspected fifth-grade masters, which had a huge impact and involved all nearby gangs and residents. More than ten people were killed and injured.
Since purchasing supplies that time, Yang Fang has never left the house again.
Wanfu Chamber of Commerce.
In the spacious lobby.
Wang Donglai's body was still not buried. It was placed in a coffin, surrounded by white silk, and servants kept vigil every day.
President Wang Tiesheng's face turned pale as he looked at the man in green robes in front of him.
This man in green robe is a well-known divine judge in the settlement. He claims that there is no case that he can't solve. It was Wang Tiesheng who spent the astronomical price of twenty taels of silver to hire him.
“President Wang, this should be the fact that your young master was killed. You also know that there have been more and more strange masters in the city recently. Apart from them, it is estimated that no one else will attack your young master.”
The man in green robe said, "In addition, the guards around your young master were killed by quick swords, which makes it even more accurate. As far as I know, among the forces that came this time, the strongest ones in the [Sword Tower] They are famous for their fast swords and heavy swords. Most likely, your young master bumped into them accidentally and was killed casually!"
“Sword Tower!”
Wang Tiesheng looked ugly.
As the president of a large chamber of commerce, he has naturally heard of this force.
This force is extremely terrifying. Different from small places like them, it is a force from a truly large place, coming from an extremely huge city.
In this world, those who can gain a foothold in some cities will be extremely terrifying.
Only those who are incompetent will choose to settle in settlements.
cast sudden in the matter - the disciples' qualifications will be the most important factor, and they will be divided into two factions since they were young. One faction specializes in fast swords, and the other specializes in heavy swords.
He didn’t expect that people from this force would actually enter their settlement and kill his son?
“Is there any evidence that the sword tower did it?”
Wang Tiesheng looked unwilling.
“There is no concrete evidence, but your young master was not killed earlier or later, but he was killed at this time. Doesn’t this explain anything?”
The man in green robe spoke.
Wang Tiesheng took a deep breath, his body swayed, and he felt deeply powerless.
Even if he knew that his son died under the sword of a strong sword tower man, how could he dare to take revenge?
"Did you hear that? It's the Sword Tower. If you don't send people to find it immediately and find all the people in the Sword Tower, I will cut them into pieces and cut them into pieces with thousands of swords!"
The woman next to her was crying with red and swollen eyes and was hysterical. She grabbed Wang Tiesheng's arm and kept shaking it.
Wang Tiesheng felt bitter.
Retaliation for the sword tower?
Even if their entire chamber of commerce is involved, others can easily massacre them.
“That’s enough, stop talking!”
Wang Tiesheng swung his sleeves hard and threw the woman to the ground.
The woman directly hit the coffin on one side, looked at Wang Tiesheng in disbelief, and screamed, "Wang Tiesheng, your son is dead, and you haven't avenged your son. What do you want to do? You coward, I didn't do it back then." I'm blind, why did I marry you, a bastard, and you give my son his life?"
“Hehe, Senior Sister Bishui, what a coincidence, we saw such a thing right after we arrived.”
Suddenly, bursts of light laughter came from outside the door.
