Snapped!

Jiang Qingliang pressed the abacus with her palm and raised her head to look at Zhou Yan: "Brother Wei, it's okay to just say it."

Zhou Yan did not hide anything and said directly: "I want a map of the junction of Nanjing and Beishu."

"map!"

Jiang Qingliang looked at Zhou Yan and couldn't help but shook his head and said: "It turns out that Brother Wei is not interested in drinking."

Jiang Qingliang sat up straight.

"It's just a topographic map."

"There is no need for troop deployment or other confidential information, but it must contain detailed topography, as well as the locations of border towns and passes."

Zhou Yan understood Jiang Qingliang's thoughts and added immediately.

For example, Sword Villa, forging swords and swords is their main business and their foundation. But they also do business from north to south, which is also the main source of money.

This type of business is just like maritime trade, the most important thing is the trade route.

Because of the hostility between Shu and Jing, this trade route is not just simple information about where there are mountains, where there is water, where there are people, and where there are towns. It also has to open up all the joints. There are relations between Shu and Jing. When crossing the border,

If you have someone to help you, you will have a smooth journey.

Among these, the latter is the most important.

This is the source of wealth for Sword Villa and will never be leaked.

But if we don't need the troop deployment and general information of each town, nor the internal relationship between the two armies, but just a topographic map, it is not without discussion.

After all, you can't do business between the two places with just a topographic map, so naturally you won't have any business conflicts with Sword Villa.

And Zhou Yan is indeed not doing business.

He has 'Levitation Technique', 'Speed ​​Travel Technique', and 'Telekinesis'. With the cooperation of these three magics, he can overcome any ups and downs.

Most people still have to worry about food, drinking water and other issues, but Zhou Yan happens to have a 'storage technique' that can seal six thousand kilograms of materials. If all of them are used to seal food and water, it will be enough for the five of them to save food and drink for a year.

.

In this way, there is no need to deal with the border troops of the two countries, and there is no need to open up various joints.

The best thing is that there will be no unpredictable changes caused by people's hearts.

Magic is Zhou Yan's advantage, so of course he must take advantage of it.

But the basis of this idea is based on a familiarity with the terrain. Whether it can be implemented depends on carefully studying the map.

"If it's just a topographic map——"

Jiang Qingliang pondered for a while, then looked at Zhou Yan, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Which top master is Brother Wei working for?"

"How can Wei be able to reach such a figure?"

Zhou Yan was startled and couldn't help but shake his head.

Jiang Qingliang's question was so abrupt that Zhou Yan paused for a moment before reacting.

The state of inner strength is called first-class.

The peak of internal strength is called the top.

Reaching the level of a top master, with full internal energy, he can climb over eaves and walls with ease, and travel over cliffs with ease. If such a person wants to travel between two countries, only a map is enough.

Jiang Qingliang's guess does have some truth to it.

In this regard, Zhou Yan does have the demeanor of a top expert.

It's a pity that we are only on the road.

When Jiang Qingliang saw that Zhou Yan refused to admit it, he smiled and said: "Our Sword Villa has always been on good terms with masters from all walks of life. If Brother Wei is working for such masters, it is not difficult to get a map."

"this--"

Zhou Yan pretended to hesitate, but insisted: "Wei does not have that blessing."

"In this case."

After Jiang Qingliang heard this, he stopped asking further questions and simply said: "Then let Jiang and Brother Wei be friends. Brother Wei will come back tomorrow, and the elixir and map will be prepared together."

Zhou Yan was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Brother Jiang!"

…

Zhou Yan stayed in Bamian Town for four days.

four days ago.

He entered the town with twenty thousand taels of silver.

Four days later.

The 20,000 taels were almost spent, and he exchanged it for Zhou Yan for 50 bottles of Qi and Blood Pills, 400 copper pills, and 800 kilograms of civet meat that helps to temper the essence and blood. It was a full harvest.

Needless to say, there is no need to say much about Qi and Blood Pills and Copper Pills.

As for the ‘flower civet meat’——

In heaven and earth, humans are the spiritual beings of all things.

But there are also other creatures that are blessed by nature and favored by heaven and earth, such as the Bodhisattva Snake in Mantuo Villa, which is a bit strange.

The same goes for ‘Huali’.

This is a strange species from heaven and earth. It is famous for its flexibility and is difficult to catch. Its flesh and blood contains strange things, which can help warriors practice, especially those in the Qi and Blood realm, so it is valuable.

Bodhisattva snake and snake gallbladder increase strength.

Civet meat increases the strength of qi and blood and improves the quenching efficiency of qi and blood.

With the combination of the two, plus the Great Qi and Blood Pill, Zhou Yan has completed most of the effort that needs to be accumulated during his three-blood practice. What is left is only hard work, careful consideration and careful polishing, all of which are fine skills.

This purchase can be regarded as preparing him, the eldest brother and others all the supplies they need to move forward to the Qi and Blood Realm.

Even if you return to Dashu in the future, it will be difficult to make money for a while, and there will be no channels to obtain spiritual materials, so you don’t have to worry about delaying your spiritual practice.

certainly.

This trip is not cheap.

Zhou Yan spent a total of 10,000 taels on the Qi-Blood Pill and Copper Pill in Bamian Town, and another 6,000 taels on 800 kilograms of raccoon meat.

Then I bought more than 700 kilograms of various books from bookstores in various cities along the way.

Now I only have a little over one thousand taels left on hand.

It's like going back to before liberation.

But when money goes away, people are happy.

The goal that Zhou Yan set before coming out was successfully completed as the nearly 20,000 taels of silver were scattered.

elixir.

Civet meat.

These are all helpful for spiritual practice.

The trading partners chosen by Zhou Yan, such as Daojian Villa, are all capable of traveling back and forth between Dashu and Nanjing, and are familiar with the topography of the border between the two countries.

Zhou Yan obtained three maps through three transactions.

By looking at each other in correspondence, we can have a more detailed and accurate understanding of the border terrain between the two countries.

Now everything is ready, just waiting for the trip to the 'ghost land' to be over before we can return to our homeland.

This day is the tenth day of February, fourteen days before the opening of the 'Ghost Realm'.

Zhou Yan didn't plan to hang around anymore, so after leaving Bamian Town, he rushed to Zhaixing Mountain.

And when Zhou Yan left.

In Bamian Town, Wei Changshun received the information from his eyes and ears. Someone in the middle of the house said curiously: "He spent nearly 20,000 taels in four days. This person is not an ordinary person."

In the past few days, Wei Changshun led Zhou Yan to walk in Bamian Town and met various people. Others did not know Zhou Yan's handiwork, but he did.

I was surprised and curious.

But there is nothing greedy about it.

The 'Eagle Claw Yanxingmen' attaches great importance to Bamian Town and does not allow outsiders to cause trouble, and it will not tolerate the chaos of its own people. Anyone with evil intentions and unclean hands and feet has disappeared in the 20 years since the establishment of Bamian Town.

Wei Changshun didn't think he could commit a crime in Bamian Town and still get by unnoticed.

He didn't have any bad intentions in his heart, but he still kept people staring at the yard that Zhou Yan rented in Bamian Town. There were 800 kilograms of civet meat stored there. Zhou Yan didn't take it out when he left, it was still inside. .Bamian Town is not afraid of people stealing, and even if you steal it, you can't get out. Wei Changshun stared at it, just wanting to know when Zhou Yan would come to pick it up. Then he might be able to figure out what the background of this person was.

Think about this.

Wei Changshun paid a lot of attention.

But one day, two days, and three days, no one came to the yard. When the lease expired three days later, people from Bamian Town went in and took a look, only to find that it was empty and white, and it was really clean.

Eight hundred kilograms of civet meat was transferred quietly!
Chapter completed!
