Chapter 957 – The Fur Coat and the Quarry Chisel
Chapter 957: Qiuyi and Cai Shi Chisel
Xu Chuniang is not sure how long she will live in Zhangwei Mountain in the future, but as long as she lives in Zhangwei Mountain, she can not leave the stone house.
She looked at the square inch Zhangwei Mountain in front of her and pointed to one of the places.
“Let’s pick this place.”
“This place …….”
The old man surnamed Gong scrutinized, “This place is quite close to the stone mine, but the height isn’t considered to be bottomed out, and the likelihood of encountering blizzards and Immortal Beasts isn’t too low, are you sure you want to choose this place?”
Xu Chuniang nodded her head gently, “I’m sure, I’ll choose here.”
“Alright, give me the identity tokens of the two of you.”
Seeing that she had already made up her mind, the old man surnamed Gong didn’t say much, taking the identity tokens of the two of them, he allocated this piece of land to the two of them.
At the end, he took out another pamphlet and handed it to Xu Chuniang.
“In this booklet, there are records of the specialties and immortal beasts in the Zhangwei Mountain, as well as the selling prices of various materials, you keep it, if you have more than one harvest, you can bring it to me to exchange for immortal crystals.
Save up enough Immortal Crystals early, and you’ll be able to leave this Zhangwei Mountain.”
Xu Chuniang took the pamphlet, didn’t rush to flip through it, and asked the old man, “Exactly how many Immortal Crystals do I have to save up before I can get out of Zhangwei Mountain?”
The old man surnamed Gong pondered for a moment, “It depends, where you’re going, there are only those few places in the First Heaven that have immortal veins.
Some places are even worse than Chapter Tail Mountain, going there would be better than not going.”
From the mouth of the old man surnamed Gong, Xu Chuniang learned that if she wanted to go to the best few locations in the First Heavens, she would need to save up a minimum of thirty thousand immortal crystals.
As for the lesser places, it would require anywhere from two thousand to thirty thousand immortal crystals.
The old man rethrew the wine gourd into the bonfire and shook his head.
“Don’t underestimate this Zhangwei Mountain, if people from other places want to come and settle here, they have to pay one thousand immortal crystals! It’s only because you two are ascended beings that you’ve been saved this fee.
There are so many loose Immortals and Half Immortals who don’t have a place to live, and because they don’t have the money, several generations have to be crammed into one place, tsk tsk.”
Several generations crammed into one place, just imagining this image made Xu Chuniang find it a little hard to accept.
Thinking about it this way, the bitterly cold Zhangwei Mountain was not unacceptable.
At least this Zhangwei Mountain was spacious enough that it didn’t need to be crowded.
The old man surnamed Gong narrowed his eyes and surveyed the two.
“The frosty cold of this Zhangwei Mountain is no joke, even a Human Immortal’s body can’t endure it for a long time.
Every day around noon, the temperature will have a little rebound, other times are even colder, no fur coat, simply can’t go out, you two are new here, do you want to buy two suitable fur coats to protect yourselves from the cold, in my place?”
Said, he took out several fur coats and unfolded them, touched the thick fur of the fur coats and introduced.
“These fur coats of mine, although they are made from the fur of inferior immortal beasts, wearing them can block half of the cold winds, and the price is also cheap.
How about it, want to buy two?”
Xu Chuniang took a glance at the fur coats in the old man’s hand, each of them was thick and warm at a glance.
It was just that she and Xiaobai had just come to the Immortal Realm, and had no half of an Immortal Crystal in their hands.
She shook her head, “Many thanks, it’s just that the two of us don’t have any immortal crystals on us to do this business.”
“Hehe, not having Immortal Crystals isn’t a big deal, as ascended beings, you should always have some good things on you, right?”
The old man surnamed Gong smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter if it’s materials or magic treasures, I’ll take both Immortal and Semi-Immortal Artifacts, and give them to you at the discounted market price, so I won’t let you suffer.”
Xu Chuniang still shook her head, she originally had a half-immortal artifact, leaving it for the Skywatcher. “In that case, then there’s no harm, I can give it to you guys on credit first.”
The old man surnamed Gong’s face did not change as he took out a thin piece of paper and handed it to Xu Chunniang.
“These two fur coats are worth one hundred Immortal Crystals, you guys write a loan note, saying that you will return it to me after one year, and at that time, together with the interest, you will return me one hundred and twenty Immortal Crystals together.”
Xiao Bai opened his mouth wide in surprise and couldn’t help but ask rhetorically, “Borrowing you a hundred Immortal Crystals, why do I have to pay you back a hundred and twenty Immortal Crystals?”
The old man surnamed Gong glared at Xiao Bai and rightfully said.
“The extra twenty Immortal Crystals are counted as interest, I can’t let you guys have credit for nothing, right?”
Seeing that the two of them were speechless for a long time, the old man hummed softly and said with meaning.
“The two of you at the Human Immortal Realm, if you want to build the smallest stone house, it will take you at least a few months, and during these months, if you are exposed to the cold wind day in and day out, even if you won’t freeze to death, you will most likely damage your foundation.
I’m willing to let you guys have credit, and I’m also only charging twenty Immortal Realms in interest, which is already considered very conscientious.”
Little White was dumbfounded and could only look at Xu Chuniang, “Sister, then this clothes, do we want them or not.”
“Don’t want the clothes, we’ll order something else.”
Xu Chuniang touched the thin paper in her hand, it was a material she had never touched before, and the paper had a strong power of contract.
She looked at the old man, “Since you have fur coats here, the tools for mining Qinggang stone, you should also have them, right?”
The old man surnamed Gong smiled in satisfaction, handing Xu Chuniang a knowing look.
“Quarrying chisels? Of course I have them here, it’s just that the price of a quarrying chisel can be more than that.”
Saying that, he put away the fur coat in his hand, took out a quarrying chisel, and took out a skull-sized greenoka stone, waving it in front of Xu Chuniang and Xiao Bai’s eyes.
“Watch this.”
Only to see the old man gently holding the stone quarrying chisel, chiseling away at the greenoka stone, and before long, a crack appeared on the surface of the greenoka stone, which was then split in two.
The quarry chisel, on the other hand, did not even have a tiny opening.
The old man weighed the quarrying chisel in his hand and proudly said, “Not that I’m bragging, in the whole Zhangwei Mountain area, the quarrying chisel in my hand is the best.
Not only can I mine the greenoka stone, but I can also process and cut the greenoka stone, so it can be said to be a one-two punch.”
Xu Chuniang showed some interest in the quarrying chisel in the old man’s hand, with a handy tool, the efficiency of quarrying greenstone would definitely be greatly improved.
“How do I sell this?”
“Three hundred Immortal Crystals a piece, if you are on credit, you need to pay me sixty Immortal Crystals of interest after a year, if you can’t afford to replace it after a year, the Immortal Crystals can be owed, but the interest can’t be less.”
Three hundred immortal crystals a piece, two pieces then …… would be six hundred.
In this way, a year on, just the expenditure of interest, will have to be one hundred and twenty immortal crystals.
Xu Chuniang pondered for a moment, “I want to know, with this quarry chisel, to build a stone house, exactly how much time can be saved?”
The old man stroked his chin.
“It can be one or two times faster anyways, and don’t look at this stone quarrying chisel as not big, it’s made from top-grade immortal stones, it can barely be considered a middle-grade immortal weapon, so use it carefully and it won’t break even after a few hundred years of use.
Of course, if you buy another storage bag to use to transport the greenstone, it can be even faster.”
The Immortal Realm was very solid, so it was not possible to open up a mustard seed space for storage as one wished like in the Spirit Realm.
