Chapter 86: Buying Spiritual Rice (1)

They got off the Spirit Void Battleship.
He returned to Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Rogue Cultivator Market.
Along the way, all the cultivators Chen Daoxuan saw had expressions of joy on their faces.
He opened the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop’s door.
Chen Daoxuan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
He had learned a lot from Zhou Mucheng and the rest about the transport ships at the frontline.
In conclusion, if possible, the Chen family had better raise a large number of spirit stones this year.
Because a year later.
The Zhou Auction House was going to hold a grand auction.
At that time.
Not only would a large number of front-line resources appear in the auction house, but the Zhou family would also take out a large number of precious resources to auction.
During this one year.
It was for the powerful families in Guang ’an Prefecture to raise spirit stones and for the Zhou Auction House to promote themselves.
A year was enough for almost every cultivator in Guang ‘an Prefecture to know about this grand auction.
When she heard Zhou Mucheng’s words.
Chen Daoxuan thought of the main venue he saw when he went to the Zhou Auction House.
However, the main venue was closed at that time. If the auction was to be held, it should be held in the main venue.
Chen Daoxuan had some confidence in gathering spirit stones.
Not to mention the transactions with the merfolk clan over the past year, the Chen family’s treasury was filled with a large number of precious spirit ores and water spirit pearls.
Taking down the magical equipment market in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Rogue Cultivators Market had brought the Chen family a golden hen.
Moreover…
The market for magic tools in the wandering cultivator market was very vast. Small clans like the Mo Clan and rogue cultivators had never fully developed it. Chen Daoxuan believed that as the production capacity of the Chen family’s flying sword factory continued to improve, the market for wandering cultivators ‘magical treasures would bring more and more benefits to the Chen family.
In the end, it was like the Yang family’s boat.
The Yang family’s ship trading company had almost monopolized the Guang ‘an Prefecture’s ship market. In terms of profits, it was much larger than a mere wandering cultivator market.
Because in the Infinite Star Sea, a rogue cultivator could not live without a magic weapon, but he could not live without a ship.
After all, magic tools were only things that could increase one’s strength, while ships were tools for traveling. They were absolutely indispensable.
Otherwise, it would be almost impossible for cultivators without ships to move in the Infinite Star Sea.
After all, the Genuine Qi of the Refinement Stage Cultivators was not enough to support them to travel freely in the vast sea area of the Infinite Star Sea.
He walked around the shop.
Chen Daoxuan thought of something else.
Buying spiritual rice for the merfolk clan.
Speaking of this matter, Chen Daoxuan had already dragged on for almost a year.
It was just that the Chen family did not have the strength or background before, so they did not want to be too high-profile.
After all, the spirit rice that the merfolk needed was not a small amount.
It was different now.
With Zhou Mucheng as their backer, the Chen family could do whatever they wanted in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Basically, no family dared to cause trouble for the Chen family.
One had to know that Zhou Mucheng was not only a late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but he also had a Spirit Void Battleship in his hands.
Even in the Zhou family, where there were many Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Zhou Mucheng was not an insignificant character.
Thinking of this…
Chen Daoxuan walked out of the Rainbow Sound Flying Sword Shop and headed straight for the Yang Consortium’s ship.
Yang’s Boat Store was located in the core business district.
Chen Daoxuan rode on the Cloud Treading Beast Carriage and rushed slowly. It took him more than two hours to reach the Yang Consortium’s ship.
Enter Yang’s ship.
The one who received him was still the same Shopkeeper Yang who sold him the slave transporting boat last time.
“Fellow Daoist Yang, 1 haven’t seen you for more than a year. Your business has been booming recently!”
After both parties sat down and served tea, Chen Daoxuan greeted them with a smile.
“It can’t compare to your Chen family’s magical equipment shop, which is doing very well.”
Yang Jiye said politely,” I’ve heard recently that your Chen family has stolen all the magical equipment business of the Mo family.”
Chen Daoxuan took a sip of tea without saying anything.
The news of the Mo family being raided and exterminated had yet to spread. It was estimated that the next time Chen Daoxuan came to Guang ‘an Prefecture, this matter would be known by everyone.
At that time.
It was also the time when the Chen family’s reputation rose.
The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries.
Chen Daoxuan put down the teacup in his hand and said, “”This time, 1 came to find Fellow Daoist Yang to buy a cargo ship.”
“Oh?”
Hearing that there was a business opportunity, Yang Jiye’s face became even redder.” What kind of cargo ship do you need, Fellow Daoist Chen? ”
” My Chen family needs a cargo ship specially used to transport spiritual rice.” “Spiritual rice?”
Yang Jiye’s expression changed slightly as he probed,” Is your Chen family also going to get involved in the spiritual rice business? Do we need to ship it?”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan smiled without saying anything.
“Look at my mouth. I’m too rash and forgot the rules! Haha, don’t mind me, Fellow Daoist Chen!”
Yang Jiye laughed and continued, “”Spiritual rice transport ships are very common in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Many small clans use these ships to transport spiritual rice when they grow spiritual fields and sell it to large clans.
Compared to the cargo ships that transported ordinary grains and ores, the spiritual rice transport ship had a special cabin that ensured that the spiritual rice did not lose its spirituality. Therefore, the price was slightly higher.
Of course, no matter how high the price is, it won’t be higher than the slave transporting boats. Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist.”
“How much do you sell your spiritual rice carriers for?”
” Different models have different prices. The lowest model costs 550 spirit stones each.”
Yang Jiye said with a smile.
” Yes.” Chen Daoxuan nodded.” This price is much cheaper than the slave transporting boats. What are the specific models? ”
” Our Yang Consortium has three types of spiritual rice transport ships: 1,000 dan, 10,000 dan, and 100,000 dan.”
The Thousand Stones of Spiritual Rice sounded like a lot, but it was actually not much.
The spiritual rice was completely different from ordinary grains.
Take the Jade Crystal Rice, which was the most widely grown rice in Guang ‘an Prefecture, for example. The grains of this type of spiritual rice were large and full. Each grain was the size of half a baby’s fist and weighed half a catty.
Other than cultivators, ordinary people were not blessed enough to enjoy it.
The Thousand Stones of Jade Crystal Rice was equivalent to 120,000 jin.
According to the market price in Guang ‘an Prefecture, a hundred catties of Jade Crystal Rice would cost around five spirit stones.
120,000 catties of Jade Crystal Rice cost 6000 spirit stones.
In other words, even the smallest model of spiritual rice transport ship could carry goods worth six thousand spiritual stones.
The largest model could even transport 600,000 spirit stones worth of spiritual rice.
However, that kind of cargo ship was only used by the big families.
For example, the Zhou family had hundreds of thousands of cultivators. Even if each cultivator consumed five catties of spiritual rice a day, the amount of spiritual rice consumed every day was still a huge amount.
In fact, the average consumption of the Zhou Clan cultivators was more than five catties of spiritual rice per person per day. It might not even be enough to multiply the actual data by several times.
Chen Daoxuan, who cultivated the Dragon Python Heaven-Devouring Technique, knew this very well.
If they used the thousand-stone cargo ship to transport the spiritual rice, it wouldn’t even be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the Zhou Clan cultivators.
The Yang family had fewer cultivators than the Zhou family, but they still had hundreds of thousands of cultivators.
He also needed to consume a large amount of spiritual rice every day.
Therefore, only a 100,000-dan cargo ship could barely satisfy the needs of these large clans.
Chen Daoxuan looked at the other party’s expectant expression and said with a smile,”” Of course, it’s not the 100,000-dan model. Our Chen family needs a 10,000-dan model spiritual rice transport ship.”
The 10,000-stone spirit rice transport ship could transport 60,000 spirit stones worth of spirit rice at a time. Although it was not enough for the merfolk to eat, it was enough to solve their urgent needs.
As for the bigger one hundred thousand stone spirit rice transport ship, Chen Daoxuan was worried that it would attract attention, so he didn’t buy it.
After buying the spiritual rice transport ship and buying 5,000 stones of spiritual rice from the Zhou Concubine, Chen Daoxuan took some time to meet up with Zhou Siyuan and the others before heading towards Shuanghu Island with half of the goods..
