Chapter 227 Merchant II, Merchant III and Merchant Six

Shang Xia's new talisman was only a second-order talisman, and it was not worth dozens of silver dollars.

However, in this case, Shang Xia priced the new talisman at three hundred silver dollars, which seemed to have doubled several times, but it greatly gave Elder Jianmen enough face.

After Yu Chengjin took his leave and left, although Yu Chengjin had already asked it before, Shang Ke couldn't help but ask again, "Is it really a new talisman?"

Shang Xia smiled and said, "It's really a new talisman!"

Shang Ke hurriedly asked, "I heard from your Uncle Quan that you have been able to make second-order martial talismans, and now you have made new talismans, how efficient is it?"

Shang Xia smiled bitterly and said, "Without affecting the cultivation, my grandson can make a second-order martial talisman in about ten days. However, the key now is not how fast the grandson makes talismans, but that there may not be enough talisman supplies."

Shang Ke sighed when he heard this, "Indeed, the one with the largest talisman materials in Tongyou City is the Yun family, especially the production of talisman paper, which is the Yun family's supply that Tongyou Academy needs a considerable part of every year. Although our merchants can also make talisman paper, they can only achieve the second order at most, and both the quality and quantity are far inferior to the Yun family."

These are all gaps in the foundation, don't look at the rapid rise of merchants, and now in the eyes of outsiders, they are even more sitting on two fourth-order warriors.

But in fact, the merchant's own industry is very shallow, just like the previous merchant made a lot of money in the two realms of war, but most of the extraordinary raw materials, the merchant can only do the most elementary processing.

The merchant's instrument master can only repair sharp weapons at most, but he is unable to make sharp weapons; The 'medicine' pharmacists trained by the merchants themselves can only be equipped with 'medicines' below the second level at most; The merchant's Fu Master currently had the highest achievement was only Shang Xia, a rank two Fu Master.

Weapons are a threshold for sharp weapons, and most of the other 'medicines', talismans, formations, etc., are based on the third level as a threshold.

Except for personal martial arts practice, the merchant's achievements in other aspects are lackluster.

Compared with the other three major families in Tongyou City, the merchant is really not a family background.

Shang Xia hesitated for a moment, changed the topic of martial arts, and asked, "Uncle, is there any progress behind the Battle of Long Street?"

Shang Ke shook his head and said, "Confused and confused, everyone has suspicions, but everyone has evidence of alibi, and the water in it is very muddy."

Shang Xia thought for a while and then asked, "People from the four academies are now gathered in Tongyou City, what do they want to do?"

"It's just a piece of the pie!"

Shang Ke smiled, and then instructed, "Your most important task now is to prepare for advanced martial arts conception, and don't worry about other things yet."

After Shang Xia came out of the inner hall, he returned to his small courtyard.

Although he had been in seclusion for a period of time, and the fifth uncle was obviously unwilling to 'reveal' more inside stories to Shang Xia, Shang Xia could feel the current treacherous situation in Tongyou City from Shang Ke's words.

From the inner hall to the small courtyard exclusive to Shang Xia, if you want to take a shortcut, you need to pass through a martial arts arena surrounded by green trees.

This is the place where the children of merchants who have not yet stepped into extraordinary martial arts are used to strengthen their muscles and bones and consolidate their foundation.

All merchant children over ten years old, if they have nothing to do on weekdays, they will spend most of their time in this martial arts arena, and Shang Xia was no exception.

"Sixth Young Master!"

"Six young masters!"

When Shang Xia passed through this martial arts arena, many merchant children along the way would say hello to Shang Xia.

In the past, Shang Xia would always respond with a smile, but today it was because he had something on his mind, so he just nodded slightly and left quickly.

Among the direct descendants of the merchant, the merchant ranks sixth in his generation.

However, in fact, Shang Xia rarely saw other brothers and sisters of his generation, and some of them he didn't even know.

But just as Shang Xia was about to leave the training ground, a ray of cold light suddenly flashed from Shang Xia's afterglow.

Shang Xia had a warning sign in his heart, and then he heard a slightly panicked voice coming from not far away, "Hey, third sister, slow down!"

Shang Xia snorted coldly, twisted his fingers, and a talisman two inches wide and four inches long flew out of his sleeve.

As soon as this yellow paper talisman flew out, it turned into a bright yellow 'color' flame, and the yellow 'color' light expanded outward from the flame, turning into a golden light barrier in front of Shang Xia.

This is the only amulet that Shang Xia has successfully made among the second-order martial talismans recorded in the "Zhu's Fu Jing" - the golden lamp barrier!

Almost at the moment when the golden light barrier appeared, a wisp of cold light cut into it for more than two feet, but in the end, due to exhaustion, it stopped at a position only three inches away from Shang Xia, unable to advance an inch.

The stagnant cold light was a short sword one foot eight inches long.

Shang Xia's eyes swept over the dagger that was stagnant in front of him, and finally fell on a woman who was about the age of double ten a few feet away from him.

At this time, the woman was struggling to pull her sword fingers, as if she wanted to take back the dagger imprisoned by the golden lamp barrier.

But no matter how hard she tried, the dagger that was stuck in front of Shang Xia couldn't even move.

And next to this woman stood a young man of the same age, the man's face was very similar to the woman's, but compared to the woman's slightly anxious and struggling expression at this time, this young man's expression looked slightly embarrassing.

However, this man was obviously not the one who had just opened his mouth to stop the woman from making a move.

Shang Xia's eyes turned again and fell on another young man who had just arrived at the training ground, looking slightly anxious.

Although this person Shang Xia hadn't seen him for a long time, Shang Xia was familiar with him.

This person is the grandson of the fifth uncle Shang Ke, the son of the ninth uncle Shang Yang, Shang Fu, who ranks seventh after Shang Xia among the third-generation descendants of the merchant!

However, Shang Xia's eyes still did not stop on Shang Fu's body, but passed over the man and woman standing side by side with similar faces, and landed on a 'woman' dressed in strong clothes and a mature temperament behind the two of them.

This 'woman' looked at Shang Xia with a smile, and a faint coercion made Shang Xia feel a hint of threat.

"Third-order martial arts master!"

Shang Xia's eyes were slightly fixed, but he noticed that the woman was holding a sheathed long sword in her hand, which looked a little familiar, and she didn't know where she seemed to have seen it.

From the young woman's sneak attack, to the short sword of the sneak attacker imprisoned by Shang Xia with a martial talisman, in just a moment, the other Shang children in the martial arts arena were already alarmed, shouting and cursing one after another, and some shouted as a warning.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"There is an assassin!"

"Be careful!"

「……」

There are those who are bold and reckless, and even grab the guys on the martial arts arena and are about to hit the woman who made the move.

Seeing this, Shang Xia quickly waved his hand to stop these ordinary family children who had not yet stepped into the Wu Yuan Realm.

"Who are you?"

Shang Xia knew that the other party would not appear in the merchant's martial arts arena for nothing, and then thinking of Shang Fu's shout just now, he vaguely guessed the identity of the person in front of him.

But this does not mean that Shang Xia will give the other party a good face, after all, he was attacked for no reason, and if he did not fight back on the spot, Shang Xia would have raised his hand.

"Sixth, sixth brother, let me introduce you to ......"

Shang Fu said with some embarrassment.
