Starting with Taoist priests from Maoshan to cultivate immortality

Those cultivators clearly relied on this burly man for their livelihood, and even when they were scolded, they dared not show the slightest anger on their faces.

They lowered their heads and explained:

"Pang Caigou, as you know, recently, for some unknown reason, all the monsters on the outer layer of Tianmen Mountain have migrated into the deep mountains."

"Those inside are all extremely troublesome old demons, and there are even Foundation Establishment level demons wandering around from time to time."

"We lost one of our brothers to get these few level-one refined mushroom deer. We hope you'll be understanding!"

The massive man tossed his head and said unhappily:

"What's the point of telling me all this! Jade Fragrance Kitchen only accepts the finest quality products. If we can't supply them, you can all get the hell out of here!"

Huh... Suddenly, the huge head twitched its nose slightly, noticing Jiang Yu and his companion riding in a carriage in the crowd.

He casually pushed through the crowd, approached the carriage, sniffed the air carefully, and then scanned the two men up and down:

"You two kids are here to sell monster meat too?"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jiang Yu and his companion found it difficult to respond.

Big Head sniffed and said impatiently:

"Speak up!"

Jiang Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:

"We were introduced by Brother Song Yu."

He deliberately made it sound like he had known Song Yu for many years, just to use his connections and influence.

Song Yu's name still carried considerable weight in Qingming Market; Pang Datou's attitude noticeably softened, and he grinned.

"So it was Brother Song who introduced you. Please follow me."

As he spoke, he led Jiang Yu and the others into a small courtyard.

As he passed the hunters, he casually waved them away.

"Get out of here! Don't block the road, or we'll call the enforcement team to arrest you!"

It was Pang Datou who was blocking the road, and it was Pang Datou who had the worst attitude.

The hunters lowered their heads and left carrying the low-level demon corpses.

From beginning to end, they dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.

The cruelty of the lower levels of the cultivation world is evident.

After entering the courtyard, Jiang Yu lifted the lid of the carriage containing the bear demon's corpse.

The enormous head's eyes lit up as he carefully examined the bear demon's corpse, marveling at it:

"The bear demon with three levels of Qi cultivation has thick paws, shiny brown fur, and intact teeth."

call out!

A large cleaver was drawn from its sheath at his waist, a flash of light streaked across, and the bear demon's left shoulder was slashed open.

"The texture is firm and doesn't crumble; it's top-grade!" The large-headed man lowered his head to examine and judge carefully, then shook his head regretfully.

"It's a pity there's only half!"

Jiang Yu said at the opportune moment:

"Pang Caigou, this bear demon was hunted down by my brother and me, along with several other cultivator friends. It took us a lot of hardship."

"Look at my brother's head, the bear demon has completely messed it up!" he said, pulling on Zhao Lei's fluffy hair.

Increasing the difficulty of hunting monsters appropriately can yield better prices and also enhance the overall fairness of the game.

Zhao Lei stood to the side, his eyes filled with admiration.

Since entering Qingmingfang City, he has been following behind and rarely speaks.

He thought to himself:

"Brother Jiang is so smart, I need to learn from him."

"I don't think so!" Pang Da Tou glanced at Jiang Yu, then ripped open the tarpaulin of another vehicle, revealing the corpses of the Green Wolf Demon pack.

He is very picky, but he also has a good eye for quality.

"To be able to wipe out the entire pack of Azure Wolf demons and kill their leader in one blow, that's no ordinary feat," the massive-headed man said, squinting.

This kid isn't as simple as he seems on the surface.

He is at least not a rogue cultivator.

Jiang Yu felt a little embarrassed that his little scheme had been seen through, but he kept a calm expression and secretly gave Zhao Lei a look.

Zhao Lei understood, turned around, and cupped his hands in greeting:

"I am a disciple of the Rock Stone Sect. This pack of Azure Wolf demons was defeated by my fellow disciples and I!"

On their way here, they had already discussed that if the buyer questioned the origin of their monsters, they would invoke the name of the Rock Gate to deal with the situation.

If his master were still alive, there would be no need for such trouble, but unfortunately his master has gone mad and disappeared.

"I see!" The large-headed man returned the greeting with a cupped-hand salute.

Although they are small sects, those who can serve as the leaders of a sect are all quite capable.

Even if there's no overlap, there's no need to offend them.

The massive head's eyebrows relaxed completely as he laughed:

"Don't worry, Yu Xiang Chu is one of the three major restaurants in Qingming Fang City. We would never do something that kills the goose that lays the golden eggs."

"Let's talk about the price!"

Big Head took out an abacus the size of a palm from his pocket and started calculating as he worked on it:

"I'll give you fifty-five low-grade spirit stones for half a bear demon, thirty for the leader of the blue wolf demons, and one for each ordinary blue wolf demon."

He shook his hand, putting the abacus back in its place, and then generously raised his index finger with his other hand:

"I'll just round it up for you, one hundred spirit stones!"

"Believe me, in this market, no one will offer you a fairer price than I will."

"One hundred dollars!"

Upon hearing this number, Zhao Lei's breathing quickened, and he wished he could press Jiang Yu's head down and make him agree immediately.

He had never had so many spirit stones before.

Jiang Yu remained calm and spoke softly:

"Two hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Hiss... Zhao Lei gasped, looking at Jiang Yu in disbelief:

"Brother Jiang's appetite is far too great!"

Sure enough, Pang Datou's expression turned cold:

"Are you trying to make me lose money?!"

"At most one hundred and thirty yuan!"

Zhao Lei was about to try and persuade Jiang Yu, but when he heard Pang Datou raise the price again, his expression froze.

"No, I'm still too young!"

Jiang Yu lowered the price slightly: "One hundred and eighty yuan!"

The large man frowned: "One hundred and fifty yuan!"

Jiang Yu finally offered: "One price, one hundred and sixty yuan. If you don't agree, I'm leaving!"

His massive face flashed pale and then flushed. After hesitating for half a minute, he seemed to have made a huge decision:

"Okay, 160 it is!"

"Since you were introduced by Brother Song, I'll buy from you at a rock-bottom price!"

"With such a high price, the shopkeeper will definitely rip me off if he finds out!"

Big Head gritted his teeth in pain, his face full of reluctance, and handed over one hundred and sixty low-grade spirit stones to Jiang Yu:

"By doing this, I gain absolutely nothing!"

"Happy transaction!" Jiang Yu nodded slightly.

Despite his imposing appearance, Pang Datou has actually made a lot of money.

Jiang Yu knew very well that this was the best price he could get with his current strength, not the true price of the monster's corpse.

This is also the survival rule for weak cultivators.

With the transaction completed, Jiang Yu and Zhao Lei prepared to leave, leading the empty carriage.

The giant head waved his hand and said:

"Come find me again if you hunt down any good monster meat in the future, and I guarantee the price will be fair to everyone!"

After the two figures disappeared, the large-headed man took out another small bag of spirit stones from his pocket and shook his head:

"After all that effort, I can only get a 25% kickback."

"However, I've completed the task assigned to me by my superiors. With such excellent ingredients, let's see who dares to say a bad word about them."

"I forgot, we still have to give half a percent to that guy Song Yu!"

"Um!"

He let out a heavy sigh and dragged the newly bought ingredients back to Yuxiang Kitchen.
