Chapter 224 The little rich is at peace
The safe trade zone that Sun Zecheng painstakingly built has been open for a month.
Business is not good, it can even be described as dismal.

Sun Zecheng summarized the reasons as follows:
First, the customer base has been narrowed, and those who come to trade are all from the six factions of Yue State.

Although the six factions of Yue State reaped a wave of war dividends,
After returning to Yue State, the profit was almost seven times that of the previous Beiliang State, but overall, the scale was still too small.

The four major forces in Tiannan Continent, the Ten Nations Alliance, the Righteous Alliance, the Six Demonic Sects, and the Heavenly Alliance, basically each force has about 80 Yuanying.
The Kingdom of Yue only has seven Yuanyings, one tenth.

Without the purchasing power of the ten-nation alliance gathered in Tiantian City, it suddenly became much less.

Second, the second-hand dealer has not caught up yet.

At present, the middlemen are Elder Yang's Yang family, Yuan Wen's Yuan family, Huangfeng Valley's Chen family and others. This month, they are very happy to act as middlemen for transportation without any competition.

But, in general, they have limited capital and their distribution is probably equivalent to 15 percent of the previous amount.

Third, war spoils.

The Jindan and Jiji who participated in the war all made a fortune from the war, and they should have spiritual stones to spend.

As a result, because there were pills captured from the enemy on the battlefield,
For foundation-building cultivators, although the efficacy of the Heqi Pill is not as good as the Fenglin Pill, it can still be used and it cannot be wasted.

Therefore, these monks who received the war profits were not very eager for elixirs.

The foundation-building pills were all gone.

However, Sun Zecheng always controlled the quantity of Foundation Establishment Pills, so this month's sales were less than 30% of the past.

However, Sun Zecheng is not worried about sales.
After all, resources are scarce in the Tiannan Continent, and both spiritual medicines from previous years and high-level demon pills are scarce commodities.

This one won't have trouble selling.

Therefore, even in the stage before the business opened, Sun Zecheng still went to Tianxing City to purchase goods every two months as usual and stocked up a large amount of goods.

Stock up first!

By the way, he brought Nie Ying, Xuan'er, and Xin Ruyin over to party for a few days, mainly to water Chen Qiaoqian's grass field to prevent her from getting dry.

After the carnival, count the spirit stones.

Now that he has accumulated a lot of goods, plus the expenses of making talismans all the time, Sun Zecheng now only has 51 million spirit stones left!

"This is the first time in recent years that the amount of spirit stones has decreased!" Sun Zecheng exclaimed.

"It's something we can't use up anyway." Xuan'er is probably the kind of child who has never had to worry about food and clothing since childhood and has no desire for money.

"Who would complain about having too many spirit stones?" Chen Qiaoqian, who comes from a merchant family, is different. The more money the better; you can never have too much!

"My husband, you didn't count the goods and talismans." Nie Ying said seriously.

Somewhat similar to Xuan'er, Nie Ying does not have a strong desire for wealth because she has a generous master, Elder Lei.

"Nie Ying also thinks Xuan'er is right. 50 million spirit stones are more than enough. Why does my husband need so many spirit stones?"

Sun Zecheng usually lay with his head resting on Nie Ying's thighs. When he heard Nie Ying's question, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

By the calculation, how many spirit stones does a person need to go from the Qi Refining Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage?
Foundation Building:

Even Han Erlangzi, who spent eight foundation-building pills to build his foundation,

Based on the price of 4500 spirit stones per piece, that would be .

If calculated based on the selling price of Chaos Star Sea, it would be much cheaper.

Jindan: Even though Sun Zecheng practiced the Prison Cauldron Divine Art, which required eight times the amount, he only used eighteen Jindan to complete it.
Based on the purchase price of 35,000 yuan, it would be 630,000 yuan.

At most, one million packages will get you the golden elixir.

In fact, this is eight times what Sun Zecheng needs, and other people don’t need that much.

Xuan'er used only seven golden pills to form the elixir, which cost her two hundred and forty-five thousand yuan.

Nie Ying had even fewer, just five, costing 175,000.

As for the transition from Jindan to Yuanying, it is still unknown.

However, Sun Zecheng believed that 10 million would be enough.
Or, except for my own special needs of eight times, three or five million would be enough for Nie Ying, Xuan'er, Chen Qiaoqian, Xin Ruyin, etc. After calculating this way, it seems to be enough.

Sun Zecheng suddenly felt like he had lost his goal, or, it should be said that he was "content with a small fortune".

I realized that I was a person who was content with a small fortune.

Sun Zecheng couldn't help but think of Han Erlengzi.

Speaking of which, Han Erlangzi and I are two very different people.

Han Erlangzi has a very firm faith in Taoism, and everything he does is for the sake of achieving immortality.

As for myself, I have no obsession with immortality. Living happily for hundreds or thousands of years is enough!

Thinking of this, Sun Zecheng couldn't help but raise his head and arms, put his arms around Nie Ying's neck and pulled her towards him.

Nie Ying understood, held up Sun Zecheng's head, pulled out her body, climbed on top of Sun Zecheng, and started a new round of dual cultivation.

……

The next month, Sun Zecheng sent someone to Fenglin Pavilion in Tiantian City and hung a sign on the door.
The general idea is that the Lingshou Mountain branch of Fenglin Pavilion has opened, and everyone is welcome to visit.

The second-hand dealers of the Ten Nations Alliance heard the news and collectively ran to the Spirit Beast Mountain.

It was out of stock for a few months, so when we bought it back, we were quite generous.

Fenglin Pavilion's shipment volume quickly returned to its previous level, and this was still due to Sun Zecheng deliberately controlling the shipment volume.

However, the flow of people in the safe trade zone is still deserted.
There are only a few hundred more middlemen.

The huge Lingshou Mountain Safe Trade Zone is still deserted.

It was far from the imagined bustling and crowded scene like Tianxing City.

It doesn't matter if it's quiet, as long as the goods are sold.

Anyway, Sun Zecheng doesn’t have much to pursue now.

Several hundred merchants from the Ten Nations Alliance dutifully signed up for membership.
They are all here to make money, not to cause trouble. Just take pictures and leave information. The middlemen are worried that they won’t be able to buy the goods, so they don’t take authentic pictures.

But not everyone cooperates.
Today, there was a man in gray robe who refused to cooperate.

He came to Fenglin Pavilion to buy demon pills.

"Sir, nowadays the demon pills and foundation-building pills of Maple Forest Pavilion can be purchased only by formal members." Wan Xiaoyu, the head of Maple Forest Pavilion in Lingshou Mountain, said with a smile as he looked at the temporary visitor ring on the gray-robed man's finger.

"Haha, it's not like I haven't been to Maple Forest Pavilion to buy things before. I've been to Maple Forest Pavilion in Tiantian City and Yuanjialing before, but there has never been such a rule!"

"This is the new regulation, the regulation of the Lingshou Mountain Safe Trade Zone." Wan Xiaoyu continued with a smile.

"Then let's become a formal member." The man in gray robe said casually.

"To become a formal member, you need a special magic weapon to identify your true cultivation level, true face and take a photo. Please go to the entrance of the safe trade zone to apply." Wan Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"What? You need a magic weapon to identify your true cultivation level, true face and take a picture?" The gray-robed man was furious when he heard this.

In the world of cultivating immortals, strength is respected.

What a broken rule. It's all fake in front of strength!

The man in gray robe has seen many different rules that are invalid in the face of strength.

You have to show them some strength!
“Is this not possible?” The gray-robed man released the pressure of a late Jindan stage cultivator.

Wan Xiaoyu's foundation-building cultivation was unable to withstand the pressure from the late Jindan period, and he retreated step by step.

"Who is demonstrating in a safe trading zone?!"

A woman's clear shout rang out.
