Chapter 70 Forbidden Spirit Stone(1/2)
However, even though he found the bronze tripod, Chen Shaojun remained calm. Instead, he pointed at the two cauldrons mentioned by the other party and asked curiously: "Oh? But these two cauldrons?
Then I wonder how much these two cauldrons cost?"
The two cauldrons are indeed a pair. They are all green and seem to be forged from a fusion of bronze and some kind of refined material. They are three feet and three inches tall. They are carved with complex patterns on all sides. You can vaguely see dancing dragons and phoenixes, and magical figures.
The turtle and the white tiger howl.
Below it is a three-legged structure, giving people a sense of stability and honesty.
Just looking at the appearance, it is indeed a first-class tripod.
Placed in the room, it can indeed be used to stabilize the house, ward off evil spirits, and establish feng shui.
It can even be used as an altar to offer sacrifices in ancestral temples.
It is one of the standard features for wealthy families.
"Exactly.
This is something that has been enshrined in Yuhe Temple for hundreds of years. Although it is not a treasure in our pawn shop, it can still be regarded as an important item.
If you are really interested, guest, I will reluctantly give up one of these numbers to you."
Shopkeeper Liu said, with a heartbroken look on his face, and slowly opened his five fingers.
"Fifty taels?"
"How is that possible? Five hundred taels."
Shopkeeper Liu shook his head repeatedly.
Two cauldrons, aren't they one thousand taels?
Chen Shaojun glanced at Shopkeeper Liu and realized that he was really dark.
He still had a certain impression of these two incense burners. They seemed to be pawned by a poor family. The two cauldrons were bought by shopkeeper Liu at a price of seventy taels.
As a result, Shopkeeper Liu’s selling price will increase more than ten times?
"If it is really influenced by incense in a Taoist temple and protected by a real Taoist, five hundred taels a piece is not expensive."
Chen Shaojun pretended to be excited, and then said cautiously: "However, if I really buy it, you have to give me some help.
Otherwise, I feel a little bit at a loss."
Shopkeeper Liu's eyes lit up. Seeing that a big deal was about to succeed, he acted generously and said, "Tell me, what else do you fancy? As long as it's not too expensive, I can make the decision to give it to you.
"
"Well, let's take this. The tripod is smaller and looks quite delicate. It can be used as a brazier."
Chen Shaojun pondered for a moment and pointed to the copper tripod inside the black tripod.
It was the alchemy furnace he had identified before.
Shopkeeper Liu's face twitched slightly, what kind of family is this? Can they use this cauldron as a brazier?
But he said: "This tripod is not cheap.
Look at the material, it's no worse than those two incense burners.
There are also carvings, although not as exquisite as these two, but they are still stylish.
Placed in the middle of the house, it can also protect the house from evil spirits and set the feng shui.
Of course, if you sincerely want it, I can make the decision and give it to you as a gift."
"Oh? Generally speaking, how much does this tripod cost?"
Chen Shaojun seemed to be a little interested and asked.
"It's still one hundred and fifty taels anyway.
The lowest is the lowest, it’s worth a hundred taels.”
Shopkeeper Liu first quoted a high price, then saw that the workmanship of the tripod was indeed far inferior to the other two, and quickly changed his words with a guilty conscience.
"Two hundred taels, I bought this bronze tripod."
Chen Shaojun said simply at this time.
What he values is not workmanship.
In terms of workmanship, the craftsmanship of some ordinary people is actually far better than that of many refiners, but what he really values is the essence of the alchemy furnace.
This alone is better than countless exquisite cauldrons.
"ah?"
Shopkeeper Liu opened his mouth unexpectedly.
Chen Shaojun smiled slightly and said: "To the west of Shengjing City, one hundred and thirty miles away, there is Wuhe Village. There is a Taoist temple at the entrance of the village called Yuhe Temple.
But I remember that Taoist temple has been abandoned for more than a hundred years.
Even if the cauldron for burning incense is still there, it shouldn't be these two, right?"
Shopkeeper Liu was stunned.
"Just this bronze tripod, do you want to sell it for two hundred taels? If not, I'll leave."
Chen Shaojun made the final decision.
"Sell!"
Shopkeeper Liu gritted his teeth and shouted quickly.
He finally understood that Chen Shaojun's original goal was this bronze tripod.
The previous conversation was just to negotiate the price.
Although he didn't know why the other party increased the price for the purchase, he was able to sell the items for two hundred taels for only twenty or thirty taels, which was considered a huge profit, so he naturally had no reason to disagree.
Chen Shaojun was also very happy.
After all, he knew that this bronze tripod was an alchemy furnace used in the cultivation world. Although the grade was not very high, it was in good condition. By borrowing mana, the runes in it could be stimulated, which could increase the number of pills produced to a certain extent.
The chance of a successful drug is definitely not bad.
At least it's enough for him now.
Soon, the money and goods were cleared.
Linqi at the ticket counter registers and writes the voucher.
Suddenly, he was slightly startled. He looked at the bronze tripod carefully, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
However, he said nothing and the deal was successfully concluded.
The bronze tripod is not big, one foot and seven inches high. Although it is a bit heavy, Chen Shaojun is very strong now and can handle it easily.
Of course, in order not to attract attention, he still packed it in a cloth bag.
When I walked out of the pawn shop, it was already getting late, the number of pedestrians on the street began to decrease, and many stalls slowly began to close their stalls.
Chen Shaojun returned directly to the inn.
"Next, we can officially start refining this Dragon Tiger Energy Pill."
Chen Shaojun looked at his harvest this time.
In addition to the most important green bronze alchemy cauldron, there were all kinds of medicinal materials, tiger whip, red snake gallbladder, fifty-year-old wild ginseng... a total of one thousand one hundred taels of silver was spent.
Adding the two hundred taels of the green bronze alchemy cauldron, it becomes one thousand three hundred taels.
The cost is quite high.
If he couldn't successfully refine the Longhu Energy Pill, he would be heartbroken.
Although this money is easy to come by, it cannot afford him to spend it like this.
After calming down, Chen Shaojun was about to start processing the medicinal materials, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Huh? Who is it?"
Chen Shaojun was slightly startled, and quickly put away the medicinal materials and the bronze tripod.
"I'm Lin Qi, I'm sorry to bother you, but I hope that my senior will be honest."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Soon, a voice came from outside the door.
"Lynch?"
Chen Shaojun was shocked.
The new ticket counter in the pawn shop? Lin Qi, a member of the Lin family?
Did he show his weakness in front of the other party before?
Although he was quite confident in his method of changing faces, in his opinion, Lynch was not simple either. He understood this since he used the spiritual eye technique to detect last time and was almost discovered by the other party.
Moreover, when Zhang Gao and Xu Hongtao were chatting in Sanchaofeng before, he also vaguely heard the discussion about the other party and knew that the other party might be more mysterious than he imagined.
But soon, his face returned to calm.
