Asking About Longevity Chapter 176

Chapter 176 Making a fortune

Mo Hua went to visit Mr. Zhuang the next day. After all, he was Mr. Zhuang's registered disciple. He had been trapped in the Ling Mine for a long time and never came to pay him a visit. Mo Hua felt a little sorry.

Mr. Zhuang was still sleeping, so Mo Hua and Puppet played five elements chess for a while.

　　After so long, their chess skills are still the same and there is basically no improvement.

However, for a simple chess game like Five Elements Chess, it is not good to take too much effort. It is interesting to simply kill here and there.

Mo Hua and Pupulao chess met their opponents, and they fought hard to separate each other.

When Mr. Zhuang woke up, Mo Hua felt a little unfinished. He said goodbye to Mr. Zhuang and paid a visit to Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang basically gave up on ink painting, letting him learn it on his own and asking questions if he had any. He didn't say anything about it.

Before leaving, Mr. Zhuang even praised, "Well done."

Mo Hua was very happy and smiled so much that he narrowed his eyes.

 It was only after leaving Mr. Zhuang's bamboo room that Mo Hua became a little confused.

 I clearly didn't say anything to Mr. Zhuang, but Mr. Zhuang seemed to know everything...

 Also praised him for doing a good job.

Mo Hua frowned, how did Mr. Zhuang know?

Mo Hua was a little confused, and then he thought, Mr. Zhuang is an expert, maybe he can do calculations, not to mention that they made such a big fuss with the Qian family, it is normal for Mr. Zhuang to know.

Mo Hua nodded and didn't take the matter to heart.

Mo Hua went to see the Bai Zisheng brothers and sisters again.

Bai Zisheng's eyes lit up when he saw Mo Hua, and then he complained and asked him where he had been during this time.

Mo Hua told me about the spirit mine.

Bai Zisheng's blood boiled with excitement and envy at the same time.

Bai Zixi on the other side was reading a book on the surface, but she was also listening intently. Her autumn-like eyes flickered, and she didn't even know if the book in her hand was crooked.

“Next time something like this happens, be sure to call me and I'll help you!” Bai Zisheng said with high spirits.

"It's useless to call you, Aunt Xue won't let you go." Mo Hua said lightly.

Mo Hua's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Bai Zisheng's head.

Bai Zisheng lost his dream in an instant. He was like an eggplant beaten by frost. As soon as he lay down on the ground, he felt that his life was a lot darker.

Mo Hua sighed, "I'll bring you some food tomorrow."

Bai Zisheng immediately sat up straight, "I want it spicy!"

"Okay." Mo Hua said helplessly. He turned around and saw Bai Zixi looking at him with shining eyes.

Mo Hua thought for a moment and said, "My mother is making jade cakes. I haven't eaten them yet, but they smell very good. I'll bring some for you to try tomorrow to see if they taste good."

Bai Zixi nodded slightly, looking quite relaxed.

The next day, Mo Hua brought food over as promised.

Bai Zisheng ate happily, while Bai Zixi ate the fragrant pastry like white jade in small bites, like a kitten, with his eyes slightly narrowed.

Mo Hua couldn't help but smile with his eyes narrowed when he saw them eating happily.

A few days later, Elder Yu asked Mo Hua to go to the demon hunting shop's warehouse to collect the spirit stones.

There are a lot of spiritual stones mined in the spiritual mines. They cannot be distributed at once, otherwise they will be easily squandered, or they may be forcibly robbed, causing many troubles.

 Hunting monsters also requires a sufficient amount of spiritual stones to be reserved for emergencies.

 Hence, the spiritual stones stored in the warehouse should be taken out in batches at regular intervals according to their merits, paying attention to the steady flow of water, so that the spiritual stones can be used in the longer term.

Mo Hua queued up outside the warehouse, and soon he was given a storage bag. There were probably more than three hundred spirit stones in it, which was heavy in his arms.

 More than three hundred pieces!

 It will be enough for a long, long time. In a short period of time, you don't have to worry about spiritual stones.

  And this is the first one, there should be more in a while.

Mo Hua was extremely happy.

Not only the ink paintings, but also the demon hunters who came to receive the spirit stones all had smiles on their faces. Some even looked in disbelief when they got the spirit stones, and even cried with joy.

 How did the casual cultivators who worked hard to make a living at the bottom see so many spiritual stones?

With these spiritual stones, the children no longer need to go hungry, and their cultivation is successful, and they don't have to work so hard to earn spiritual stones.

  Under heavy pressure, they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

 And you can live this kind of life for ten years!

Mo Hua was a little happy, but after thinking about it, he felt a little heavy. What about ten years from now?

Mo Hua frowned.

 Ten years later, when the spiritual stones are used up, won't everyone still be living a life of bitterness and hardship as before, licking blood on the tip of a knife?

Mo Hua thought of Aunt Meng, Aunt Jiang, Dahu and the other three, as well as other familiar demon hunters.

Think of the tears they shed in life, the blood they shed while hunting monsters, their bitter pain and their lives hanging by a thread.

 The mood of the ink painting is even heavier.

 Is there any way to make everyone's good life last longer?

 This idea lingered in Mo Hua's mind.

 Mo Hua thinks about it when he is eating, he thinks about it when he is practicing, and he also thinks about it when he is drawing formations.

On this day, Mo Hua was flipping through the formation book, and suddenly an idea flashed through him.

 He ran to the warehouse of the demon hunting shop and found Elder Yu.

There are a large number of spiritual stones stored in the warehouse, and Elder Yu is worried about it, so he has been stationed here personally during these days.

Mo Hua asked: "Elder Yu, how did the Qian family get rich?"

Elder Yu was slightly surprised, but still thought about it and said:

“The ancestor of the Qian family was also a demon hunter at the beginning. Later, he saved a fortune of spiritual stones and stopped being a demon hunter. He started doing things like weapon refining and elixir refining..."

“The monster hunter kills the monster beast, collects the stripped materials at a low price, hires cultivators to make them into spiritual weapons and elixirs, and then sells them to the monster hunter at a high price.”

"Later on, he grew bigger and bigger, the price of collecting materials became lower and lower, the hours of hiring casual cultivators became longer and longer, and the spiritual weapons and elixirs he sold became more and more expensive. Naturally, the Qian family became more and more expensive. rich."

Mo Hua asked doubtfully: "Is there no one to fight with them?"

"We can't compete with them." Elder Yu shook his head. "My heart is not as dark as theirs, and my methods are not as ruthless as theirs. I can't compete with them."

Mo Hua added: "I heard that the Qian family started from scratch."

Elder Yu said disdainfully, "The Qian family paid for it themselves."

 “Isn't that so?”

Elder Yu glanced around with his consciousness and made sure there was nothing unusual. Then he sat down, drank a cup of tea, and talked to Mo Hua:

“I just said that the ancestor of the Qian family saved a fortune of spiritual stones. How do you think this spiritual stone was saved?”

Mo Hua thought about it carefully and was suddenly surprised.

Elder Yu raised his eyebrows, "Everyone is a demon hunter. Why can he save it when others can't? The amount of spiritual stone that can open an weapon refining shop and an alchemy shop is not a small sum. For a normal demon hunter, It's something you can't save in a lifetime…”

Mo Hua's eyes narrowed, "Then what did he do?"

Elder Yu said: "The older demon hunters told me that the ancestor of the Qian family had evil intentions since he was a child. He followed others to hunt demons, even killed his companions, swallowed the inner elixir of the demon beasts, and later pretended to be a bandit. He was robbing in Dahei Mountain and cheating behind the scenes. As long as he could earn spiritual stones, he would do anything. Only then did he save the first amount of spiritual stones..."

Elder Yu sneered again, "A horse can't fatten without night grass, and a man can't be rich without windfall. How can there be so many self-made people in this world?"

Mo Hua was secretly frightened when he heard this.

After finishing the gossip, Elder Yu drank a cup of tea to moisten his throat. Then he remembered something and said, "You came here to talk to me about these things, right? What's the matter?"

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "Elder Yu, let's also open a weapon refining shop and an alchemy refining shop to earn spiritual stones!"

Elder Yu laughed and said: "Silly boy, the Qian family only managed to accumulate the spiritual stones to make a fortune by killing people, stealing goods, cheating, and abducting goods. How can we get so much capital..."

Mo Hua smiled and said: "We don't have to kill people to get goods, and we don't have to cheat, so we have capital."

Elder Yu shook his head and was about to say something else. Suddenly his heart skipped a beat and he turned to look at the warehouse.

 The warehouse is filled with densely packed spiritual stones! It was a spiritual stone that had just been dug out of the spiritual mine and exchanged for it from Daotingsi!

“But... refining weapons and elixirs is not that easy.”

“There are also many alchemists and weapon refiners among casual cultivators. If there is not enough manpower, just spend some spiritual stones to hire them.”

Elder Yu frowned and thought for a moment, "The most troublesome thing is the weapon refining furnace and the alchemy furnace. If you want to make your business big, you need large and high-quality weapon refining furnaces and alchemy furnaces."

 “Is it difficult to refine the weapon refining furnace and alchemy furnace?”

“Refining requires a lot of manpower, material resources and refined iron, but the most difficult and core thing is inside the furnace..."

When Elder Yu said this, his heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but look at Mo Hua.

 The most important thing is the formation inside the furnace!

 Elder Yu thought about it in succession, and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

Everything is ready! They lack nothing!

 They have spiritual stones, they have human hands, the most difficult formations... they also have ink paintings.

 Elder Yu was a little unbelievable for a moment.
