"How many do you need?" the shopkeeper asked.

"Three hundred copies." Meng Zhou said.

According to the price of one portion of twelve middle-grade spiritual stones, 300 liters of raw materials for the spiritual elixir would require 3,200 medium-grade spiritual stones, that is, 32 high-grade spiritual stones.

Meng Zhou still has 95 high-grade spiritual stones on his body, so of course he needs to spend some time on them.

But after hearing Meng Zhou's data, the other party smiled bitterly and said:

"Senior, you are embarrassing me. Let alone the discount, even if you give me the full amount of spiritual stones, I won't be able to get these materials."

Meng Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked strangely: "You are from the country of origin, and you can't even get this quantity?"

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said:

"Senior, you said that as long as these materials are transported to Qinglinfang or Cuiyu Lake Fairy City, the price can increase by another 10% or 20%. Why didn't you do this?"

Meng Zhou fell into deep thought.

The other party explained: "This is the result that President Pan tried his best to promote, but there are conditions. If you only buy a small amount, I can sell you some, but if the quantity is too large, it is not just a matter of spiritual stones."

Already."

Meng Zhou was a little surprised by the other party's explanation, but after thinking about it carefully, it was natural.

Otherwise, he would purchase a large amount here at a lower price and then sell it to Qinglinfang or Cuiyu Lake Fairy City - how could anyone take advantage of such a bargain?

In order to make this exchange meeting more lively and grand, President Pan did not just pass through most of it like last year and did not stop at Sanchuan Plain at all.

To this end, he has done a lot of work, but those who hold these resources cannot really be willing to suffer losses.

Small transactions or ordinary resources are just repayments. Large and precious resource transactions have additional conditions.

Moreover, the conditions are varied, which actually increases the difficulty of the transaction.

For example, if he wanted to buy 300 raw materials for Shengling Dan in the store just now, the other party's condition was to exchange for the finished Shengling Dan.

According to a certain ratio, neither party suffers a loss.

That's weird.

Just after hearing the other party's conditions, Meng Zhou lost interest in continuing to communicate with the other party, turned around and continued to wander around.

After stopping and walking, I arrived at the central area before I knew it.

During this exchange meeting, every shop here is very expensive and crowded with people.

But one of them was empty, with no goods placed and very few people coming in and out, which was in stark contrast to the other shops in the area.

Meng Zhou saw it at a glance, and when he took a closer look, he saw wooden boards hanging on the walls of the shop, with various words written on them.

[Want to buy a second-level defense array plate, no limit on quantity]

[Want to purchase the second-level spirit gathering array disk, no limit to the quantity]

[Want to buy second-level detoxification pill, no limit on quantity]

[Want to buy second-level rejuvenation talisman, quantity is not limited]

[Want to buy second-level healing charms, no limit to quantity]

【Want to buy...】

…

On every wooden board, there is a need written on it.

And in the most conspicuous position, there is a most conspicuous wooden board standing up [The conditions are arbitrary, spiritual stones, animal materials, spiritual materials, as long as we can satisfy it, we will make every effort to satisfy it! - Jade Blood Army]

Meng Zhou was in a daze for a moment, but he didn't stay here any longer and left quickly.

He now knows that the status of the Blue Blood Army in the Blue Blood Plains can be compared to that of the Sanchuan Hui in the Sanchuan Plains, but it is even worse.

The dangerous living environment made the monks of Jixueyuan understand that it doesn't matter how many disputes there are among the human monks.

But in the face of the dangers of monsters, all human monks must act in unison.

And they must be coordinated in a unified manner, and they cannot fight individually and send out multiple orders.

This kind of consensus among the people is the basis for the establishment of the Blue Blood Army.

It has only one purpose, which is to fight against and cleanse the monsters.

…

When Meng Zhou appeared at the door of the shop again, he had completely changed into another person.

At this moment, he was a dignified and steady middle-aged man. Meng Zhou stepped into this strange shop and was "received" by an old man.

With his attainments as a pharmacist, he could tell at a glance that this old man had used some secret method to overdraw his life potential and entered the state of old age in advance.

He was only over a hundred years old, and had advanced cultivation in the late stage of foundation building. He should have been in his prime, but he revealed a weakness and twilight energy like a rootless duckweed.

But there was still a strong ferocious power about him.

When Meng Zhou walked into the store and sat in a corner of the house, motionless, he turned around and saw a thick and sinister aura rushing towards him like a wave.

If a weak-minded person is caught off guard and encounters this situation, it would be easy for him to stagger. If he is not careful, it is possible for him to be knocked to the ground.

Naturally, Meng Zhou was not affected in any way and looked at him.

But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. In an environment like the Blue Blood Plains, even for a foundation builder, one has to be prepared to risk one's life at any time.

Seeing that Meng Zhou was unmoved, the other party's eyes became brighter and his attitude became more serious. He stood up from his seat, cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Taoist, please."

Meng Zhou nodded and looked directly at the wooden boards on the wall.

Before, you could only see part of it outside the door, but now you can see more when you enter the house.

Meng Zhou looked at the contents on these wooden boards, but what he thought of was an organized team with the foundation-building monks as the core. After leaving the protection of the spiritual veins, they went deep into the evil veins where monsters were entrenched and dangers were everywhere.

, the various dangers encountered and how to deal with them.

When the old man saw that Meng Zhou did not respond to his greetings at all, but carefully stared at all the wooden boards on the wall one by one, he was not angry or unhappy, but his expression became softer.

He waited quietly until Meng Zhou read all the information on the wooden boards, and then took the initiative to ask:

"Do you have any advice, fellow Taoist? Which piece of wood on this wall can you take off?"

Meng Zhou shook his head and said, "I won't take off the sign on the wall..."

Just when the old man looked disappointed, Meng Zhou's next words directly lifted his heart.

"However, I do have a new thing to give you, but I don't know if it will suit your liking."

The old man looked shocked and asked quickly: "What's the new thing?"

"How about a safe house?" Meng Zhou asked.

"Safe house?" the old man murmured, as if he couldn't imagine it, and asked: "What kind of safe house?"

Meng Zhou stretched out his hand to grab it, and a hard stone slab on the ground suddenly disappeared and appeared in his hand.

Then, the hard rock changed like noodles in his hands, and soon it turned into an ordinary courtyard.

While Meng Zhou was changing, he introduced to the old man:

"This set of yards can be put into a storage bag when not in use and taken out when needed. As long as you have spiritual stones or sufficient mana, you can turn it into a safe shelter anywhere."

Seeing the change in the old man's expression, Meng Zhou smiled and said:

"Don't worry about it being flashy. In fact, it's just a minor by-product compared to its true capabilities.

This safe house will have the functions of defense, concealment, spirit gathering, and shielding. It looks like a safe house, but it is actually a comprehensive mobile array in the shape of a house."

The old man showed joy on his face and asked hurriedly: "What is their quality?"

"Second-level high-quality equipment, I can guarantee that each of their abilities is truly second-level high-quality equipment. Taken together, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a second-level top-quality equipment!" Meng Zhou said.

The old man couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "Okay, how many spiritual stones are needed to build such a safe house?"

Meng Zhou asked: "How much do you think is appropriate?"

The old man hesitated, thought for a while, and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I need to discuss it with more people."

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "It's understandable."

"Just a moment!"

The old man invited Meng Zhou to sit aside, and personally prepared good tea and snacks for him, before turning and entering the back room.

After drinking half a pot of spiritual tea, the old man walked out of the back room and appeared in front of Meng Zhou, saying:

"If everything is as you said, we are willing to purchase such a safe house from you at the price of 80 high-grade spiritual stones!"

Meng Zhou nodded in his heart.

He has participated in the auctions of Hexin Building many times and has a basic understanding of the prices of various second-level treasures.

The only second-grade high-grade defensive magic weapon he succeeded in shooting, Xuanling Tortoise Armor, cost a total of fifteen high-grade spiritual stones.

Although there are some strategies here, the Xuanling tortoise shell has too many cracks and signs of repair, which makes many people doubtful, and the price is low.

But even for normal second-level high-grade magic weapons, the price is generally around twenty high-grade spiritual stones, and even for special ones, the price will not exceed thirty.
