Chapter 142: Transaction Review, Yuelu Visits Relatives

Time goes back to Geng Xuan.

On the 14th, just as Yixianxia became a lively and busy construction site, Geng Xuan, who was immersed in cultivation, had another obvious improvement in strength.

Since he advanced from master to grandmaster in the "bone shrinking method" earlier this month, Geng Xuan has focused his practice on bone refining.

After nearly ten days of practice, the level of bone refining has been significantly improved, increasing by "16%", from "63%" to "79%".

The rapid growth momentum of bone refining brought about by the Grandmaster Realm's "Bone Shrinking Method" has been significantly slowed down.

At the same time, the level of blood refining also increased by "0.40%", from "75%" to "79%".

The rapid growth in blood refining brought about by the Grandmaster Realm's "Cai Nu Xuan Shui Gong" is also gradually slowing down.

The "Wanjun Jin" of the master level also brings a significant improvement to the level of marrow refining.

Although in the past ten days, Geng Xuan's focus of cultivation has not been on marrow refining.

The level of marrow refining was still improved by "0.5%", from "5.3%" to "5.8%".

In addition, the skin refining level, which had not moved up for a long time, has once again increased by "0.10%", from "82%" to "83%", as other body tempering achievements continued to grow.

The level of flesh refining has not changed, and is still "95%, " which is still the most outstanding among all the achievements in body tempering.

[Refine skin to 83%, refine flesh to 95%, refine blood to 79%, refine bones to 79%, refine marrow to 58%]

On that day, Geng Xuan used up 96 points of luck twice, in the morning and afternoon respectively, to upgrade his Qi Nu Xuan Shui Gong and Bone Shrinking Technique to one level each, advancing from the Grandmaster realm to the Perfection level.

The total consumption of good luck is 192 points.

Geng Xuan also made the decision to shift the focus of his cultivation from refining bones to refining blood in the next period of time.

……

Late at night on the 14th or around the early morning of the 15th, Geng Xuan left with the last group of people evacuating from Yixianxia.

Because there were too many bags and people, the return speed was inevitably affected.

About two hours later, Geng Xuan returned to Wanfufang before dawn and returned to the Wei family compound.

Qi Mingcheng and Fang Jintang were "settled" in two courtyards near the Wei family compound.

In addition to the two of them, there are four other powerful marrow refining realm masters from Qingyuan Group and Santong Group who are the most trusted by Qi Mingcheng and Fang Jintang.

They were all tricked into Yixianxia by the two men using a method similar to the one Fang Jintang used to trick his father-in-law Qi Mingcheng.

Now they all knew the current situation and came to Wanfufang, and were arranged to go to other places by Wei Wanzong and others.

It can be said that the "marrow refining concentration" in Wanfufang has never been as high as it is now since Wanfufang was established on this land.

Not to mention how many brain cells Wei Wanzong, Fan Hongsheng and others burned in order to properly accommodate these people.

After Geng Xuan returned to the Wei family compound, he left all the miscellaneous affairs to Luo Qing, Wang Xi, Hong Quan and others.

He himself devoted himself wholeheartedly to his own cultivation.

The fifteenth was a busy day for all the people in the neighborhood, as well as Fang Jintang, Qi Mingcheng, and all the others from Santongji and Qingyuanji who were now settled in Wanfufang.

For Geng Xuan, this day was very peaceful.

No one bothered him for any chores.

Whether it was the people in the neighborhood or Fang Jintang and others, they all seemed to abide by this principle tacitly.

——Any problem that they can solve by themselves, even if it is very difficult to solve, they are willing to solve it by themselves and never bother him for a minute.

Geng Xuan was also happy to have peace and quiet.

What Geng Xuan also found interesting was Kang Leji's reaction.

According to Wei Wanzong and others, before the 12th, some black-robed guards could occasionally be seen patrolling outside the market.

But since the 12th, there has been no sign of a black-robed guard outside Kangleji.

The days after the twelfth were the time when the families acted more and more "unscrupulously" and "unconcealedly".

Especially on the 13th, 14th and 15th days, countless people come in and out of each family quarter every day.

But Kangleji is like a stupid bird with its head buried in the sand, ignoring everything that happens right under its nose.

Geng Xuan knew that this was probably the result of his visit that day.

Geng Xuan, who had no intention of caring about Master Fan's inner thoughts for the time being, was also happy to see this situation happen.

For Geng Xuan, he doesn't need to think about things too far in the future.

Every day that the situation remains stable is good and profitable.

……

On the 17th, in addition to normal practice.

Geng Xuan consumed 208 points of luck and upgraded all six master-level skills to the grandmaster level.

——With the improvement of his cultivation, or more precisely, the improvement of his marrow refining level, Geng Xuan discovered that the endurance of his body and brain had greatly improved.

In the past, when he upgraded two or three skills to the next level at once, especially the threshold from master to grandmaster, he would clearly feel a "sense of fullness" coming from the spiritual level.

If you upgrade too many skills at one time, exceeding your limit, it will put a huge burden on your mind.

There may even be symptoms of slower reactions and dull thinking.

After entering the marrow refining stage, especially as the level of marrow refining becomes higher and higher, this phenomenon has undergone obvious changes.

He can upgrade more skills at once.

If Geng Xuan were to describe this feeling, it would be that the "memory" of his brain has become larger.

This time, Geng Xuan only felt a little "full" after advancing six skills from master to grandmaster level in a row on the same day.

The six skills are "Listening Hammer", "Spirit Snake Whip", "Air-Splitting Palm", "Shadowless Kick", "Nine Heavy Strike Styles", and "Yin Wind Bone-Transforming Palm".

Among them, except for the realm improvement of "Yin Feng Hua Gu Palm" which consumed forty-eight points of luck, the other five skills only consumed thirty-two points of luck.

And with the end of this upgrade, except for the "Yin Feng Hua Gu Palm" which still has room for improvement, the other five skills have all reached their intended upper limits and can no longer be improved.

……

【Lucky: 535
Perfection: Tidal Breathing, Mysterious Water Skill of the Fairy, Bone Shrinking, Running Dog Skill, Earth Walking Skill, Medicine Stone Skill
Grandmaster: Iron Skin Skill, Raccoon Leap Skill, Continuous Steps, Featherless Arrows, Blowing Arrows, Continuous Tracking Arrows, Dissection Skill, Songtao Sword Skill, Phantom Hand, Listening Hammer, Spirit Snake Whip Skill, Splitting Palm, Shadowless Kick, Nine Heavy Strike Styles, Eight Medicine Items (details omitted)
Master: Iron Sand Palm
Master's Strength+
Disguise (Grandmaster) +, Yinfeng Bone-Transforming Palm (Grandmaster) +]

In addition to the Wanjunjin marrow-refining technique, the only skills that still have room for improvement are the "Disguise Technique" and the "Yinfeng Bone-Transforming Palm".

It looks very shabby.

Geng Xuan wondered whether he should learn some new skills.

In the end, Geng Xuan shook his head and gave up.

The purpose of practicing new skills is to improve your overall strength.

However, the skills currently in stock in the gang are hardly able to meet his requirements.

Of course, this doesn't mean that the skills in stock are no longer of any value to him.

It would never do him any harm to practice one or two more sword techniques, some knife techniques, and even the use of other weapons.

However, after thinking about it, Geng Xuan temporarily gave up these ideas.

Now, he doesn't have much good luck. He will consider this when he has too much good luck to use up.

Thinking of this, Geng Xuan calmed down.

……

The eighteenth.

After three days of chaos, the situation in Wanfufang stabilized again.

In the living room of the Wei family compound, Geng Xuan rarely paused his practice and sat in the main seat.

Luo Qing, Wang Xun, Ding Yong, Teng Yu and Hong Quan sat on the left and right sides of Geng Xuan.

Cheng Hui and Xie Hang stood on the left and right behind Hong Quan.

After returning from this operation, Geng Xuan immediately announced the contribution rewards to Luo Qing, Hong Quan and others for the seventeen people who had accompanied him on the trip.

Because the rules within the Giant Bear Gang became increasingly clear, Geng Xuan did not set aside a portion of the spoils as rewards like other forces did.

And to be honest, nothing they did was far from enough to qualify them for a proportional share of the spoils.

The reward that Geng Xuan gave to Hong Quan and others was divided into two parts.

First, seventeen people including Hong Quan, Cheng Hui and Xie Hang each received a contribution medal.

That is to say, starting from next month, the monthly salary of the seventeen of them will be increased by one blood-replenishing pill and ten taels of silver on top of the original amount.

In addition, Hong Quan, a senior bone refining master, was promoted to Dharma Protector. From then on, his status in the gang was the same as that of Luo Qing, Wang Xi and others, and he was specifically responsible for combat-related matters.

Cheng Hui and Xie Hang served as deputies to assist Hong Quan in taking charge of this matter.

This is reflected in the monthly allowance. Hong Quan, like Luo Qing, Wang Xi and others, receives two extra blood-replenishing pills and twenty taels of silver every month in addition to his cultivation and contribution medals due to his rank.

Cheng Hui and Xie Hang received an extra blood-replenishing pill and ten taels of silver every month.

——Starting from next month, Hong Quan’s monthly allowance will be 110 taels of silver for 11 blood-replenishing pills, and Cheng Hui and Xie Hang’s monthly allowance will be 10 blood-replenishing pills for 100 taels of silver.

Luo Qing and the other four still paid for eight blood-replenishing pills and eighty taels of silver.

In addition, the monthly income of another fourteen people who participated in this operation, although they were at the same blood refining level as other gang members but were stronger, also opened up a small gap with other gang members.

The monthly income from six blood-replenishing pills and sixty taels of silver was increased to seven blood-replenishing pills and seventy taels of silver.

In addition, Geng Xuan fulfilled his promise to Xie Hang and allowed his sister to join the Giant Bear Gang as well.

Like Hong Quan's wife, Cheng Hui's younger brother, who was at the Flesh Refining Realm, he received two blood-replenishing pills and twenty taels of silver every month.

At that time, she was paid the monthly allowance for that month.

It can be said that in just this one action, the impact of cultivation and strength on personal destiny has been fully demonstrated.

Luo Qing and others might be touched by this change, but they can only adjust themselves as quickly as possible.

Because compared to the future, strong people in the Marrow Refining Realm will continue to join the Giant Bear Gang.

The current situation can only be considered a small test.

This time, Geng Xuan rarely paused his training and gathered all the core members of the Giant Bear Gang together.

It was in response to the joint request of Luo Qing, Wang Xi, Hong Quan and others.

"After these few days of hard work, you led the group out late at night on the 12th and returned on the 15th. The various gains from this operation have been basically sorted out."

As Luo Qing spoke, he looked towards Teng Yu.

Teng Yu, who was now in charge of the horses, straightened up and said:

“Wu Youxin’s cavalry consists of a total of 150 Xuanyou horses.

Among them, nine were killed, six were injured, and 135 were received intact.

After treatment, four of the six injured horses were able to recover.

Two of them will suffer from hidden diseases of varying degrees. Although they will be better than ordinary horses after recovery, it will be difficult for them to realize their full potential as Xuanyou horses. "

Geng Xuan heard this and nodded slightly:

"Counting the thirty-six Xuanyou horses we originally had, we now have one hundred and seventy-five Xuanyou horses in perfect condition and two sick horses with hidden diseases, right?"

Teng Yu nodded and said, "Yes."

"continue."

“In addition, there are Yuanzhou local horses that were obtained in three batches.

The first batch consisted of 143 horses tied up in the woods by the Dongwuji rangers. After the silver transport convoy returned safely to Lifang, all the horses were returned to us.

In addition, as a token of gratitude, the local community prepared five days' worth of food for each horse.

The second batch was the logistics packhorses of Wu Youxin's caravan. There were originally 120 horses, but because they blocked the gorge, many of them were killed when those people were fleeing.

After that, the battlefield was counted and some injured horses that were beyond saving were dealt with.

In the end, there were only eighty-four horses.

Then there is Fang Jintang's cavalry. According to your instructions, only their mounts and weapons will be confiscated and included in the statistics of captures.

Personal belongings, including those on the deceased, were disposed of by Fang Jintang and others. We did not confiscate them.

Some cavalrymen died when you led the charge, and some were trampled upon by the chaotic situation. In the end, you only got 182 horses.

Taking all the harvest into consideration, a total of 409 Yuanzhou local horses were harvested."

"Those dead horses were also processed immediately. In addition to being used to feed the large number of people in the First Line Gorge on the 13th and 14th, a lot of them were also made into jerky."

At this point, Teng Yu paused, giving some time for digestion and absorption.

Then he continued:

"Then there is horse feed, part of which was five days' supply for each of the 143 horses when they were returned by the neighborhood.

The other was the food from Fang Jintang’s cavalry, which was enough to feed two hundred horses for three days.

All this horse feed will be used up today.

The largest harvest came from Wu Youxin's logistics team, including more than 143,000 kilograms of fine feed for Xuanyou horses, more than 18,000 kilograms of coarse feed for local Yuanzhou horses, and more than 36,000 kilograms of grass.

Counting from the day we intercepted them, these horse feeds can supply the needs of 150 Xuanyou horses and 120 Yuanzhou horses for half a month.

However, as of today, a lot of concentrated feed has been consumed, but not much ordinary horse feed has been consumed.

But starting tomorrow, after the other miscellaneous supplies are used up, the consumption of ordinary horse feed will be huge as we need 409 Yuanzhou horses.”

"This is what I want to talk about," said Teng Yu.

Geng Xuan nodded slightly, but in his heart he was sighing, no wonder they say that even if you are rich, hairy things don't count.

Just talking about the horse, the harvest this time was very considerable.

But from the moment he took over, the supply of horse feed became a heavy burden, let alone other things.

Geng Xuan glanced at everyone else, as if asking, who will speak next?

Ding Yong coughed lightly and said:
"Boss, let me tell you about the weapons seizure."

"You said."

"After you left, the silver transport team collected all the bodies and buried them according to your instructions.

Before burying them, they also collected all the valuable items carried by the rangers.

After the convoy returned safely, all the spoils, along with the horses, were handed over to us.

After counting, excluding those small pieces, main and secondary weapons, plus some spare weapons, a total of 278 weapons of various types were collected.

In addition, there were 546 weapons confiscated from Fang Jintang's cavalry.

Then there was Wu Youxin's team, which obtained a total of 678 items, including the weapons carried by the dead and the spoils taken from the prisoners.

In addition, the logistics convoy also prepared 800 conventional standard spare weapons such as knives, swords, and guns.

A total of 2,302 weapons of various types were harvested."

"In addition, the most valuable item is the complete set of armor for the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, including armor and horse armor, a total of 180 sets.

After testing, it was found that these armors could effectively defend against attacks from the Bone Refining Realm, unless attacked by heavy weapons.

Some of the armors have holes on the helmets caused by your iron-feathered heavy arrows. I asked the blacksmith in Wanfufang and he said it is not difficult to repair them.

Unless someone has your archery skills and shoots arrows at the same position, it will not have any effect on these armors."

If there really is someone who possesses Geng Xuan's archery skills, there would be no need to shoot at the same spot.

So, this has no impact at all.

Geng Xuan nodded slightly. There were one hundred and fifty Xuanyou horses, one hundred and fifty riders, but one hundred and eighty sets of armor. The extra ones should be for spare parts.

Thinking of this, Geng Xuan suddenly thought of the thirty-six Xuanyou horses in his hands, and thought, perhaps there is a set prepared for them.

It’s a pity that these horses fell into his hands early, and the extra armor had to be left unused.

Following Ding Yong, Wang Xi introduced his gains in the practice.

Compared with the cumbersome reports by Teng Yu and Ding Yong, the situation in this regard is much simpler and clearer.

"We found 28 sets of skills from those rangers, and a total of 77 sets of skills from Wu Youxin's convoy. However, most of them were duplicates.

In addition, many of them are also already in our inventory.

After excluding these duplicated exercises, the number of exercises in stock increased from eighty-six to one hundred and twenty-five.

Those repeated exercises are not completely worthless. Some of them contain records of personal experience in addition to the main content of the exercises.

This is an excellent and perfect supplement to the skills we have in stock."

After Wang Xun finished reporting on his gains from the exercises, Luo Qing flipped through a book and began to report on his gains in other areas.

"First, there are blood-replenishing pills. The harvest comes from three sources. One is the ones carried by the rangers, a total of 984 of them.

The second largest number was the ones carried by the members of Wu Youxin's team, including those seized from both the dead and the living, totaling 1,728 bullets.

In addition, the logistics fleet itself has a reserve of 3,000 missiles.

There are five thousand seven hundred and twelve in total.”

"The second is Essence Pills. The gains also come from these three aspects..."

At this moment, Geng Xuan interrupted:

"You don't need to tell me the details, just tell me the total."

Luo Qing showed a bit of regret on his face, but still said:

"Yes."

“There are a total of 740 Essence Pills and 523 Tranquility Pills.

Four hundred and thirty-seven Xuanyou Pills.

Other types of medicines, including hemostatic powder, detoxification pills, etc., according to the traditional statistical method, have a total value of about 10,700 taels.

The cash, including the silver and copper coins stored by Wu Youxin's logistics team, and the broken silver, gold beans, gold leaves, etc. carried by everyone, is worth 17,935 taels and 290 coins in total in terms of silver.

“In addition, there are dried meat, fried cakes and other supplies that can sustain 300 people for half a month.

However, more than half of these were consumed in Yixian Gorge on the 13th and 14th."

“Besides, there are a hundred carriages.

There are also tents, cooking utensils and other supplies needed for 300 people to camp in the wilderness."

Luo Qing closed the book in his hand and said, "That's the general situation."

Geng Xuan nodded and looked at Hong Quan, who was sitting there in boredom, his eyes rolling up from time to time, as if he was trying hard to suppress his boredom and sleepiness.

The situation of Cheng Hui and Xie Hang behind him was not much better.

He almost yawned on the spot.

Geng Xuan asked: "Do you have anything to add?"

The three of them were startled when they heard this, and then quickly waved their hands and said, "No, no, we have nothing to say."

Hong Quan relied on the fact that he was now an official member of the gang and had the status of a protector, and couldn't help but offer his opinion: "Gang leader, there's actually no need to bring us along for this kind of thing."

Geng Xuan smiled and said:

“Of course, we don’t need to deal with trivial matters in daily life, but it is still necessary for everyone to meet up occasionally.

This is not only an opportunity to enhance your understanding of the Giant Bear Gang, but also a chance for you all to get to know each other.

Otherwise, when the Giant Bear Gang grows bigger, you, as members of the same gang, may not even have the chance to sit together and have a serious conversation. "

Hong Quan nodded helplessly.

Geng Xuan looked at Luo Qing and the others and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Luo Qing and others were not as perfunctory as Hong Quan and the other two. They knew very well that every such opportunity was extremely rare.

Every opportunity like this should not be wasted.

Luo Qing organized his words a little and said:
"Boss, in the past two days, Wei Wanzong, Fan Hongsheng, and other leaders of the neighborhood have asked me if we are willing to give away some resources."

"What do they want?"

"They want weapons and horses." Luo Qing said.

Geng Xuan nodded slightly.

After this "shock", there was a huge profit of more than two million taels.

It is only natural for each clan to increase its armed forces.

Weapons and horses are both indispensable.

Geng Xuan asked: "What do you think?"

Luo Qingdao:
“I think we can agree to their terms and give them some weapons and horses.

Ding Yong, Teng Yu and I have discussed this matter privately several times.

Let's talk about weapons first. This time we have obtained more than 2,300 pieces. Adding the ones we already have in stock, the number has exceeded 2,600 pieces.

But most of them are of average quality.

Lifang is very suitable for arming practitioners who are only at the skin refining and flesh refining levels.

But for us, none of them are worth our attention, and they only add to the logistical burden.

Those horses will put a greater burden on our logistics.

In the past, in order to take care of the thirty-six Xuanyou horses, almost all of Hong Quan, Cheng Hui, Xie Hang and their families were mobilized.

Some additional gang members were also arranged, and they were able to take care of the situation barely.

Now, we not only have one hundred and forty-one Xuanyou horses, but also four hundred and nine Yuanzhou horses.

These more than 170 Xuanyou horses alone are already a heavy burden.

Although Yuanzhou horses are not as delicate as Xuanyou horses and can be treated a little rougher, their numbers are too large.

To take care of these more than 500 horses, we have to invest a lot of manpower and energy. The current manpower of our Giant Bear Gang is simply not enough.

So, my idea is that instead of spending money to hire someone to take care of these horses at Wanfufang, it would be better to sell some of them.

It not only meets the needs of various families, but also reduces our burden.”

Geng Xuan listened and nodded slightly from time to time.

Suddenly he asked, "Did they ask about Xuanyou Horse's situation?"

Luo Qing was startled and shook his head, saying, "They were all asking about the 400-odd Yuanzhou horses, not the Xuanyou horses."

Geng Xuan asked again: "Then do you think they are interested in taking over some Xuanyou horses? If they are willing, I can provide them with a full set of armor."

Luo Qing was shocked:
"Boss, are you going to use the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry?"

Geng Xuan nodded and said, "You are right, these horses are a huge burden on us.

The Xuanyou Iron Cavalry is indeed powerful, but that's all. There's no point in having too many of them in your hands."

He is probably the only one in this world who can say such tough words.

After hearing this, Luo Qing's eyelids twitched uncontrollably twice, and he nodded quickly:
“They didn’t ask about Xuanyou Horse’s situation because they knew you wouldn’t take action.

So I'd rather not ask, so as not to upset you.

If they knew you were willing to use the entire Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, they would definitely risk their lives to take you down!"

Geng Xuan nodded and said, "Then go talk to them. Once you come up with a suitable price, let me know."

"Yes."

Luo Qing responded first, then asked: "But, Gang Leader, please draw a line for me first, so I can have an idea."

Geng Xuan thought for a moment, looked at Ding Yong, and asked, "Excluding those weapons that are only suitable for practitioners at the skin and flesh refining levels, how many weapons do we have left?"

"There are more than 800 pieces."

“All weapons below this quality should be sold.

Of these more than 800 weapons, we only need to keep 400 and sell the rest," Geng Xuan said.

Ding Yong was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't this... a bit too much? Should we keep some more inventory?"

Geng Xuan shook his head and said, “No need… You don’t have to worry about inventory.

I believe there will be more soon.”

Ding Yong was stunned again. Thinking of the dreamlike experiences of these days, he had to admit that what the gang leader said was true.

With the gang leader's efficiency in killing people, the weapons in stock will soon increase.

He was totally overthinking about the inventory hitting bottom.

Geng Xuan continued:
“From those local Yuanzhou horses, pick out the best quality ones and keep 60 of them, and sell the rest.

Xuanyou horses...keep eighty of them in hand and sell the rest.

Well, give them as much armor as they have horses, and include the armor that was stripped from Wu Youxin."

"Yes." Luo Qing replied.

Seeing that the gang leader was about to announce the end of the meeting, Wang Lu, who saw that he had nothing to do, hesitated for a moment and then brought out an immature idea in his mind.

"Boss, we can also take this opportunity to exchange ideas with the Eight Clan House regarding the martial arts."

If it were a different time and place, it would be difficult to bring up this kind of thing.

But now, the gang leader not only saved Bajia Zhongfang from the abyss of destruction with his own strength.

Now, the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, which is a strategic force, has been shared with the surrounding neighborhoods.

Wang Xi didn't believe that the families would still cherish their belongings.

If this is the case, then it is really shameless.

Geng Xuan nodded and said:
"Okay, you can go and discuss this with Luo Qing... But try to be gentle and not too aggressive."

……

After the meeting, Geng Xuan continued his practice.

Luo Qing, Ding Yong, Teng Yu, Wang Xi and others also immediately went to collude with Wei Wanzong, Fan Hongsheng and others.

Because both parties have a very strong desire and there is a foundation of trust built up from previous collaborations.

Of course, the more important reason is Geng Xuan’s unparalleled big fists.

In the end, everything was finalized in less than half a day.

Near evening, Luo Qing, Ding Yong, Teng Yu and Wang Xun came to report to Geng Xuan again.

This time, Hong Quan and the other two did not follow.

Luo Qingdao:
“The matter of horses and weapons has been settled.

When they heard that you were planning to give them a complete set of Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, they were very excited.

Including the two sick horses with some hidden dangers, there are a total of ninety-seven Xuanyou horses.

Including human armor and vests, including the higher quality armor used by Wu Youxin himself.

They were willing to purchase each set for 2,400 taels of silver.

In addition, we negotiated a price of forty taels per horse for the three hundred and forty-nine local Yuanzhou horses.

Of those weapons, eighteen hundred were to be purchased at fifty taels each.

In addition, there are 427 weapons suitable for use in the Blood Refining Realm and even the Bone Refining Realm, and they are willing to purchase all of them at the price of 300 taels each.

As long as you nod, we can make the deal right away."

One tael of silver has the purchasing power equivalent to 500 yuan in the previous life.

A relatively ordinary weapon, suitable only for use at the Skin Refining and Flesh Refining realms, costs around 25,000 yuan.

There are higher quality weapons that can be used by those in the Blood Refining Realm and even the Bone Refining Realm, and the price of one piece is around 150,000.

The Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, including horses and armor, costs 1.2 million per set.

However, the local Yuanzhou horse only costs 20,000 yuan each.

These horses, when placed in the local area, are considered to be of excellent breed.

Those draft horses that were actually used for labor production could be purchased at a minimum of five taels and a maximum of ten taels.

Geng Xuan couldn't help but sigh at the huge gap between them.

——This price cannot be used to measure Dong Guan’s 100,000 Xuanyou Iron Cavalry. That is the place of origin. We only need to calculate the actual cost investment.

However, even so, it is still a very scary number.

Geng Xuan compared the prices with those in his previous life and found them reasonable, so he nodded in agreement.

The completion of this deal means that the Giant Bear Gang will have a huge burden relieved and earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

The reason why Bajiafang spent money so lavishly this time was that he was overreacting after being provoked, and he was also really greedy for these Xuanyou Iron Cavalry.

The more important reason, of course, is that they have more than two million taels of silver in their pockets, which gives them the confidence to spend like this.

Geng Xuan nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, let's do as you agreed. I have no objection."

Luo Qing took the opportunity to say, "They know that we have a lot of blood-replenishing pills now, and they want to buy 4,000 of them from us at the price of 30 taels per pill."

Geng Xuan asked: "How many blood-replenishing pills do we have in stock now?"

"One hundred and eight hundred and twenty-three." Luo Qing said.

Geng Xuan nodded and said, "No problem, I'll sell them 4,000... How did the discussion about the technique go?"

Geng Xuan was still very curious about the trump card in Bajiafang's hand.

Now that he has such an opportunity, he is also very curious about what good things he can find.

Luo Qing said: "Wang Xi is the one who is discussing this matter, so let him talk about it."

Geng Xuan looked at Wang Xi.

Wang Xi said: "They all agreed, but there are two conditions."

"What conditions?" Geng Xuan was curious.

“First, when practicing martial arts, we will not appraise or sell them for money, and we will only accept equal exchange.

For example, we have a cloak sword technique that they don’t have;

But they have a heavy rain gun technique, which we don't have.

The two are roughly equivalent in value and can be interchanged with each other.

Both parties shall make a copy for record and give the original to the other party. "

Geng Xuan nodded and kept the transcript for himself, intending to give it to the other party. This felt very subtle.

This is both a trust and a distrust.

However, for Geng Xuan, what is important is always the content, whether it is a transcript or the original is not important.

"What if the value is not equal?" Geng Xuan asked.

"It's better to go for higher value than lower. Whoever has an urgent need can exchange it for something of higher value." Wang Xi said.

Geng Xuan nodded. To a party with urgent needs, even dirt in the eyes of others is worth more than gold.

Therefore, there is no such thing as being at a disadvantage.

If you really feel you're being taken advantage of, just don't change it.

"Anything else?" Geng Xuan asked.

Wang Xi said: "The eight families only accept exchanges with us individually to exchange what they have.

Moreover, we can only exchange the 125 exercises we have in stock with them, and cannot exchange the exercises we exchanged from one company with another.”

Geng Xuan nodded. As a local, he could understand the concerns behind this condition.

"Anything else?" Geng Xuan asked.

Wang Xi shook his head and said, "No more."

Geng Xuan nodded and said, "I have no objection to these two conditions."

……

After Luo Qing and others left, all the transactions were completed that evening.

One thousand eight hundred common weapons were sold for ninety thousand taels.

Four hundred and twenty-seven high-quality weapons were sold for one hundred and twenty-eight thousand one hundred taels.

Three hundred and forty-nine local Yuanzhou horses were sold for thirteen thousand nine hundred and sixty taels.

Ninety-seven sets of Xuanyou Iron Cavalry were sold for two hundred and thirty-two thousand eight hundred taels.

Four thousand blood-replenishing pills were sold for 120,000 taels.

The total amount is 584,860 taels.

At the same time, Wang Xi gave each of the eight families a copy of the list of 125 martial arts techniques in the gang's inventory.

At the same time, he also received the lists of martial arts provided by the eight families.

Everyone needs to carefully consider what to exchange and how to exchange it, but it is not something that can be decided immediately that evening.

……

The 19th.

Geng Xuan originally thought that nothing would happen today, and that it would be a day of quiet practice like the past few days.

But unexpectedly, early in the morning, Wei Wanzong, Fan Hongsheng, Chai Ye and other people who were in charge of each neighborhood came to the door again.

Also coming here were Fang Jintang, Qi Mingcheng, and four other marrow refining realm practitioners from Qingyuanji and Santongji respectively.

Fan Hongsheng said: "Boss Su, our people discovered last night that five people came from the direction of 'Dongwuji' through Yixianxia and arrived near Kangleji overnight.

They lingered outside our Eight Family Quarters for an hour or two. At the beginning, they were able to conceal their tracks relatively well.

Their emotions must have become more and more agitated, and by the time they arrived outside Yilingfang, they were already showing signs of trying to force their way in.

Fortunately, the security in each district was relaxed outside but tight inside, and the precautions were very strict no matter day or night.

Just as they were about to rush into the high walls of Yilingfang, Yilingfang immediately launched a counterattack and detained three of them.

Only two people fled in a panic.

We interrogated the three people separately, and according to their confessions, all five of them were from the Wu family in Anleji.

This time, he was ordered by Wu Yi to deliver a message to Wu Youxin.

Some people also noticed the abnormality of Yixianxia, but they just mentioned it casually at the time and no one else took it seriously.

...However, when those two return to Anleji and inform Wu Yi of the situation here, I think he will notice the abnormality in Yixianxia."

Geng Xuan nodded.

This was what he had been looking forward to. After listening to Fan Hongsheng's story, Geng Xuan felt eager to try it out, as if "the wheel of fate was slowly turning."

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Are the three prisoners still alive?"

Fan Hongsheng nodded and said, "They are all still alive."

Geng Xuan asked, "I want to ask them something else. Can you leave them to me?"

Fan Hongsheng nodded and said, "Of course, we will bring the person over right away."

Geng Xuan waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary."

As he spoke, he looked at Hong Quan beside him and said, "Go there in person and learn in detail about everything that has happened in Anleji in the past few months."

Although I don't understand why the gang leader asked me to ask these questions, I just need to carry out the gang leader's orders seriously.

Hong Quan is now very clear about his position.

Moreover, he also understood the gang leader's last gesture.

That was to let him shoot the three men to death after asking them questions.

Hong Quan nodded, and then, led by several people from the neighborhood, left the Wei family compound.

Fan Hongsheng and others also saw the gesture that Geng Xuan made to signal Hong Quan to kill the man in the end. Although they were somewhat confused about this, they would not have any grudge against "Su Ruiliang" because of such a small matter.

After making the arrangements, Geng Xuan also did not say much about the matter, but asked: "What are your plans next?"

Geng Xuan had only asked casually, thinking that what Bajiayuanfang had to do next was to wait quietly for "something to happen."

Unexpectedly, Fan Hongsheng gave an answer that was completely beyond his expectations.

Fan Hongsheng suddenly clasped his hands to Geng Xuan and said solemnly:
"We would like to take advantage of this last period of time to visit Yueluyuan and hope that Gang Leader Su can take care of it."

Geng Xuan was surprised and asked, "Going to Yueluyuan to visit relatives, now?"

Fan Hongsheng nodded and said, "Yes."

Geng Xuan stared at Fan Hongsheng for a while, then glanced at Wei Wanzong, Mr. Chai, and the other neighborhood leaders.

Seeing that they did not show any surprise at Fan Hongsheng's statement, he nodded slowly and said:

"Have you discussed this? Are you all going to make this trip at this time?"

"Yes." Fan Hongsheng said.

"Then what do you want me to take responsibility for?" Geng Xuan asked.

"We would like to ask Boss Su to look after us during the few days we are away.

...Although the possibility is very low, we are still very worried that after Wu Yi gets the news, he will cross Chiwu Mountain alone and come here to investigate the situation.

If this really happens and we are not there, the situation in Bajiafang will be very bad. "

Geng Xuan shook his head and said:
"You want me to take action at that time? But if so, wouldn't the story we made up for him be in vain?!"
