Chapter 23 'Earth List'

In the center of the main road of Yicheng, there is a three-story building with a vast area. There is a horizontal plaque hanging on the main entrance with three large gilded characters written on it - Wanxiang Tower!

In an alley more than ten feet away next to the Wanxiang Tower.

"Qingshan and I go to Wanxianglou. You go to Lao Wang's place in Qianjie and sell all the animal skins. Then, we gather in this alley." Teng Yongfan ordered, then glanced at Teng Qinghu, "Qinghu, you have never entered Wanxianglou. Do you want to go in and stroll together?"

"Of course I want to!" Teng Qinghu said with his head raised.

"Then give all the weapons to Lao Wang and the others for the time being." Teng Yongfan said, "Qingshan, you can also hand over the gun. Weapons are not allowed to be brought when entering Wanxiang Tower."

"The rules are really big!" Teng Qingshan also handed over his iron spear to the tribesmen.

Afterwards, Teng Yongfan, Teng Qingshan and Teng Qinghu walked towards Wanxiang Tower. Two heroic women at the front entrance of Wanxiang Tower all had sharp swords hanging around their waists and greeted each guest with a smile. At the same time, they reminded the guests not to bring weapons into Wanxiang Tower.

Teng Qingshan and the other three were dressed as hunters and walked in directly, but the two women did not stop them.

"This place is really big." Teng Qinghu's eyes suddenly widened.

Teng Qingshan was also secretly shocked. The interior space of the Wanxiang Building was huge, with counters everywhere. The guys standing in the counter in the Wanxiang Building alone had to exceed 100. And this was just the first floor.

"Qingshan, this Wanxiang Building can be found in all kinds of religions and all kinds of things. Moreover, there are many things here, everything is available." Teng Yongfan sighed, "This and the second floor are both selling things. As for the third floor... outsiders are not allowed to enter at all, but good things are also extremely expensive!"

Teng Qingshan looked at the counter with items placed one by one, and secretly exclaimed: "This Wanxiang Building is so grand that it is placed directly outside. It is not afraid of people robbing or stealing!" Teng Qingshan glanced at him and found that in this Wanxiang Building, in addition to ordinary people, there were also some special patrol people.

"I guess he is a master of internal strength to prevent anyone from stealing." Teng Qingshan said inwardly.

Teng Qinghu stared at a bracelet next to him: "Isn't this a blue flower stone bracelet? We happened to collect a large piece of blue flower stone, and sold only 100 taels of silver. That piece of blue flower stone is enough to get dozens of bracelets, but this bracelet actually costs 120 taels of silver."

The guy standing at the counter just glanced at Teng Qinghu with disdain.

It is obvious that he is a poor mountain man. It is impossible to buy these exquisitely crafted bracelets in such a dress.

"Okay, go inside and take a look." Teng Yongfan frowned, glared at Teng Qinghu, then walked aside, lowered his voice and said, "Qinghu, don't be whispering, embarrassing, do you know?"

Teng Qinghu smiled and said no more.

"Dad, what are you buying here?" Teng Qingshan asked.

"Buy some materials for making weapons. This time, it's almost done to refine the Bihan Knife. It's time to buy some. There is no other place in Yicheng, only this one." Teng Yongfan then walked straight inside, "Go to the counter where the materials for making weapons will open your eyes."

Generally, men in the village are stunned when they first come to Wanxiang Tower.

However, for Teng Qingshan, this is much smaller than the large shopping malls in his previous life, and the Wanxiang Building, which has a lot less items, will not surprise him much.

Teng Qingshan and his group came to the counter selling materials for manufacturing weapons.

"So many messy things." Teng Qinghu muttered.

Indeed, there are different pieces of metal, stone, or even some powder on the counter. In short, the things here look very inconspicuous. But the prices are amazing.

"Qingshan, look." Teng Yongfan pointed to a silver metal block with special marks in front of the counter. "This is called star rebar. It should be said that it is the steel with the best toughness that can be refined today. It is the best material for making long spear rods! Of course, the price is also very high."

The guy at the counter saw Teng Yongfan identifying the goods and praised him: "This long spear rod made of star-blank steel is hard to break even invincible powerful people who have reached the innate realm in the legend."

"Innate Realm?" Teng Qingshan was inwardly shocked.

As the "Millennium Chronicle" says, an era when heaven and earth are abundant in spiritual energy can give birth to innate power.

"What!" Teng Qinghu glared at the piece of paper under the small piece of star rebar. "A pound of star rebar costs one pound of gold?"

Teng Qingshan also looked at the price and was secretly surprised.

This star rebar is actually equivalent to gold. In this world, the purchasing power of gold is very amazing. One or two star rebar is equal to one or two gold, and one hundred taels of silver.

"Star rebar is very heavy. A spear must be made entirely from Star rebar. At least a hundred kilograms of Star rebar is required." The guy chuckled, "That is one hundred kilograms of gold, that is, one hundred thousand taels of silver! If you are not a rich man or a powerful warrior, you can't afford this silver at all."

Teng Qingshan took a breath.

God, 100,000 taels of silver? Making a gun? The remaining money from Tengjiazhuang is only about 20,000 taels of silver.

"Thousand-year-old cold iron?" Teng Qingshan stared at a black stone next to the starling steel. A sensation of cold air made people feel it before they touched it.

"Well, this thousand-year-old cold iron cannot be refined, it was excavated from various places. However, the price is much lower than that of star rebar. One pound of thousand-year-old cold iron requires two taels of gold!" Teng Yongfan said next to him. The price of thousand-year-old cold iron is 20% of star rebar.

Of course, this is still not something Teng Qingshan and the others can afford.

"These materials..." Teng Qingshan was amazed in his heart. It is worthy of being an era with sufficient spiritual energy in the world. It can nurture many magical materials. In his previous life, the material of thousand-year-old cold iron was only described in books. There was no such magical metal in modern society.

"Qingshan, you go to other places to see. I will buy the materials and call you to go together." Teng Yongfan said.

"Okay, dad."

Teng Qingshan and his cousin Qinghu went to the other counters of Vientiane Building to stroll.

"Qingshan, Qingshan." Teng Qinghu suddenly pulled Teng Qingshan a few times, and Teng Qingshan looked at him in confusion: "What's wrong?" At the same time, following Teng Qinghu's gaze, he looked towards the front of the main entrance of Wanxiang Tower. He saw a handsome man wearing a water-green long gown and a cute girl wearing a white sable fur walked into Wanxiang Tower together.

Behind them were guards and servants.

"It's the daughter of that big salt merchant." Teng Qinghu said in a low voice.

"It's her, indeed." Teng Qingshan also discovered it, but his attention was more on the man. "It's the cold winter month, but the handsome young man was just wearing a long gown, not cold at all. It seemed that he was a master of cultivating internal strength."

"Qingshan." Teng Qinghu looked away secretly and said in a low voice, "This daughter is different from the girls in the mountain in our village. Look at her white skin and face... she is even younger than the girls in the brothel." Teng Qinghu's words made Teng Qingshan laugh and cry.

"If you want to see, look closer and peek from afar, what's the point of seeing? When you go back to the village, you won't be able to see it in the future." Teng Qingshan said with a smile.

Girls in the mountains have been working since childhood, and the wind and sun are exposed. How can they compare with these rich ladies who have clothes and food?

"Well, look closer." Teng Qinghu was really brave and walked towards the other side.

...

"Brother Liu, you brag about how powerful you are. Then I ask you, is your name on the Qianlong list?" When he approached, Teng Qingshan heard that the salt merchant's daughter was asking the young man in green clothes.

"Qing Yu, those who can be on the Qianlong List are among the most heroes in the Jiuzhou in the world. Who has not cultivated internal energy since childhood? I practiced late... However, I don't care about the Qianlong List. My ambition is on the Tianlong List! Those who can be on the Tianlong List are the real heroes!"

The salt merchant’s daughter, 'Li Qingyu', covered her mouth and laughed: "Can't be on the Qianlong list, but still want to be on the ground list?"

The young man's face turned a little red: "Qingyu, don't make fun of me, this is just an ambition! Also, my senior brother of Qinghu Island, is a generation of heroes on the Qianlong list and the Earth List at the same time. Where are you Guiyuan Sect? On the Qianlong list and the Earth List, there is not one of you Guiyuan Sect."

"Your senior brother is not that you are not that good." Qing Yu snorted.

"Okay, Qingyu, don't be angry." The young man coaxed, "Aren't you going to buy the Qianlong List and the Chicken Phoenix List? Guy, there are two books each from the Qianlong List and the Chicken Phoenix List."

Teng Qingshan clearly saw that the guy took out four thread-bound books, each of which was at least one finger thick, and the top one was three large characters with flying dragons and phoenixes - "Qianlong List". Then the servant behind the young man paid immediately, which were four hundred taels of silver notes.

"Four hundred taels?" Teng Qingshan was secretly shocked, "Four books are only four hundred taels? Why is it so expensive?"

Books should be very cheap.

The handsome couple also walked towards other counters, but Teng Qingshan came to the counter where he sold books just now. The most eye-catching ones were three books, namely "The Hidden Dragon List", "The Hidden Phoenix List" and "The Earth List". Among them, "The Hidden Dragon List" and "The Hidden Phoenix List" are both very thick, but only "The Earth List" is very thin.

Among them, each of the first two books is worth hundreds of taels of silver, while the "Di Bei List" is ten taels of silver.

"What are these three books?" Teng Qingshan asked.

The guy in the store glanced at Teng Qingshan, who was still a young man, and smiled and said, "Little guy, these three books describe the famous heroes on the land of Jiuzhou and their biographies. If you want to buy them, you will ask your adults for money." Most of the people who buy these books are people who practice internal energy or wealthy children who worship warriors, so these books are extremely expensive.

Teng Qingshan's heart moved.

Although he now knows that there are eight super sects on the land of Jiuzhou, he is still confused about many things.

"I bought that book "The Earth List"." Teng Qingshan said, and at the same time took out a ten tael of silver from his arms.

As the leader of the Hunter Team in the clan, he would give ten taels of silver every month. In the clan, the leader of the Hunter Team, the gunsmith master, and the first blacksmith, contributed the most in the clan and gave the most silver. In fact, the monthly salary of ten taels of silver is still lower than that of some guards in Yicheng.

But after all, they cannot serve the tribe, so it is impossible for them to have high requirements.

"Qingshan, ten taels of silver per book?" Teng Qinghu next to him had just shifted his attention from the salt merchant's daughter, and found that Teng Qingshan spent ten taels of silver to buy a book.

"To me, this book is worth this price." Teng Qingshan smiled and took the book from his friend.

"Hmph, your father knows, he will definitely talk about you." Teng Qinghu curled his lips.
