South Gate of Heaven.

Nangong Xiaoyan sat cross-legged on a street corner where dozens of monks gathered, setting up street stalls like them.

Like some extremely ordinary things on his street stall, Nangong Xiaoyan, who was mingling among these monks, lowered his head and wore a wooden mask, was not at all noticeable.

There are at least thirty trading markets in the entire world of Taoism. Although these are public trading markets known to many Taoists, their strange things are not as many as secret markets, but the trading volume of some ordinary consumed items is far greater than that of the Secret Market in the South Heaven Gate.

But even Nangong Xiaoyan, who was already a truly lonely man at this moment, felt that an undercurrent had already surged in these trading markets.

What made Nangong Xiaoyan feel a surge of undercurrents was because of a pill, Zhengyi Pill.

Zhengyi Dan is just a very common elixir in the world of Taoism. In secret markets like Nantianmen, according to the medicinal power and spiritual level of the elixir, the elixir is generally divided into ninth levels, and each level is also divided into three levels. This Zhengyi Dan is just a second-level lower-grade elixir. Its effect is only the effect of fasting and nourishing the body.

However, this kind of Zhengyi Pill consumes a lot of money in the entire world of cultivation.

Because for many low-level practitioners and new disciples, whether they are going out to practice or in seclusion, they must prepare a lot of Zhengyi Pills.

Some large sects even regularly distribute a certain amount of Zhengyi pill to new disciples after their disciples practice to a certain extent to help strengthen their bodies.

Nangong Xiaoyan estimated that even if the Kunlun sect alone consumed hundreds of Zhengyi Dan in one day, and some disciples had a large number, but their average cultivation was far inferior to that of Kunlun sects. The amount of Zhengyi Dan consumed might have doubled.

Many sects have pill recipes for refining Zhengyi Dan, and the spiritual medicines required to refine Zhengyi Dan are only several medicinal herbs such as Yuxu Grass. Many sects specializing in elixirs and sects specializing in cultivating spiritual medicines have been planted in large quantities. Moreover, the maturity cycle of these medicinal herbs is not long, only more than ten years. When some sects have secret techniques to ripen, they can fully mature in just three or four years and have good medicinal power.

Logically speaking, the price of elixirs that are not difficult to refine and produce very stable elixirs is unlikely to change in the trading market. In fact, in the past hundreds of years, the price of this Zhengyi Dan has basically not changed much.

However, in the past two days, the price of Zhengyidan in various trading markets has risen by nearly 20%.

...

...

"Actually, there is no need to check anything."

Ge Qingteng held a green teacup and looked at the young man in black robe sitting on his head, and said calmly.

At this moment, Ge Qingteng is located in Huangfengling in Zhongzhou, a mountain mausoleum wrapped in yellow winds, and a secret city like the Nantianmen. His identity in this secret city is the shopkeeper of Baotiange, but his actual identity is one of the heads of Kunlun, who is in charge of Kunlun's transactions in all these markets, including those who are equivalent to sects like middlemen.

Like all Kunlun disciples with great identities, they don’t have to have white faces. Ge Qingteng, who is thirty years old, naturally has a proud aura. In addition, unlike other Kunlun leaders, he has more people in charge and has more various forces in control. Therefore, over the years, he has also revealed an indescribable calmness and majesty in every word and action.

"Apart from our Kunlun, it is difficult for even Shushan and Zhanzhou to increase the price of Zhengyi Dan by 20% in these two days."

Ge Qingteng looked at the young man in black robe sitting quietly on his head and sneered: "But this is obviously not done by us Kunlun, so there is only one possibility, that is, it is made by Luobei, and only he can mobilize Emei, Zhanzhou Zedi and Zhaoyao Mountain... Perhaps with Shushan, it will not be difficult to do such a thing."

"It doesn't matter whether to check it or not, how to check it, or even who is doing it." In the face of Ge Qingteng's natural majesty, the expression of the young man in black robe was very natural. The young man in black robe was also the shopkeeper of an inconspicuous shop in Huangfengling, but his actual identity was Wang Minglou, the junior brother of Longhu Zhenjun, the head of the Sanqing Alchemy Dao, who was in charge of all transactions in the world of Sanqing Alchemy Dao.

Wang Minglou looked at Ge Qingteng and said, "The key is that the other party is targeting Zhengyidan this time, so I want to know your attitude, or rather, I want to know what you want me to do."

"What?" Ge Qingteng smiled, "The price of Zhengyi Dan has increased. Shouldn't you be happy? And you should also have a certain stock and will not be cut off soon."

"Don't go around with me on purpose." Wang Minglou looked at Ge Qingteng with a slight anger. "The price of the herbs needed to refine Zhengyi Dan has increased a lot. The other party has purchased a large number of herbs in hand. The cost of refining Zhengyi Dan is definitely much lower than ours. At that time, as long as the other party deliberately presses the price lower than ours, our Zhengyi Dan will rot in his hands and cannot be sold at all. Of course, we can not do Zhengyi Dan, but Zhengyi Dan is the largest business in our Sanqing Dandao. If we don't do it, we will lose the biggest income. The key is that if we don't do it, we will never have any other sects to compete with each other. At that time, Zhengyi Dan will be equivalent to being fully controlled in the other party. The other party will not only get great benefits from it, but at that time, you Kunlun will also have to spend a lot of extra costs."

"It seems that you are not as simple as you think, this is the best." Ge Qingteng said, "The other party wants to use the method of controlling Zhengyi Dan to control some sects. If you are really happy to raise the price and sell Zhengyi Dan, you will definitely lose this business completely in the future. Therefore, the price of Zhengyi Dan cannot be moved."

"The price doesn't change?" Wang Minglou looked at Ge Qingteng and his eyes flashed.

Ge Qingteng nodded, a sneer appeared on his face, "If the other party wants to control so many herbs that refine Zhengyi Dan, they must give at least 10% extra price, so if they want to make a profit, they must also be 10% higher than the original price. Your Zhengyi Dan will be sold at a price of half a percent higher than the original price. At that time, even if they sell it at the same price as you, they will lose one."

"You don't have to check who did it. The saved manpower will buy out all the herbs that were controlled by them."

"If they don't sell it, they will keep holding it in their hands. I think even Emei, Zhanzhou Zedi and Zhaoyaoshan will be used for a hundred years!"

"This time, these financial resources are in your hands, or they may lose. I see that Zhaoyao Mountain doesn't have that much to squander for Luobei."

…

"We can suppress the price and let the other party's Zhengyi Dan be in their hands, but we are afraid that we can't hold on." After hearing Ge Qingteng say this, Wang Minglou looked at Ge Qingteng and said, "You know very well that now when we do this, we will lose more than 10% of our capital for every one we sell. If we keep the price at the same time, our stock may be gone in one day... Even if we suffer the loss, with the financial resources of our Sanqing Alchemy, we can only support it for half a month at most."

"It's not me who talks around the corner, but you. I know what you want to say when you come to me, and the final purpose is to say this to me." Ge Qingteng looked at Wang Minglou, paused, and then said simply, "We Kunlun will help you take half of the more than 10% of the capital you have lost."

"Just bear half of it? In this way, we can support it for up to one month, which may not play a decisive role." Wang Minglou said.

Ge Qingteng's eyes flashed with contempt, "Wang Minglou, everyone understands, don't cry in front of me. Now the price of Zhengyi Dan is rising so fast, and many sects are afraid that the price of Zhengyi Dan will continue to rise and stockpile the ingredients of Zhengyi Dan, because this Zhengyi Dan is a must-have consumable. If the amount you supply is sufficient and the price does not change, the price of elixirs and herbs will naturally fall a little. We can help you bear half of it. With the current situation of your Sanqing Alchemy Dao, it can support at least four months. Four months later... Maybe they will be removed by our Kunlun, and four months later, do you think they will still be interested in this Zhengyi Dan?"

"But"

"Nothing is not," Wang Minglou had to argue, but Ge Qingteng directly interrupted the Sanqing Dandao, a very extraordinary transaction manager, "I know what you mean. Indeed, with our Kunlun's financial resources, it seems that it doesn't seem to be much more for you, but you must understand that this business is more important to you than to us. Suppress the price of Zhengyi Dan, and they will not interfere in this business in the future, and you can also protect this business that allows you to make the most profit. And you must understand that our Kunlun is also piled up little by little. The people with high cultivation level in Kunlun... Golden Immortals, including the Broken Void God Bow, are just a deterrent and power to control order. What we are talking about now is the foundation of our Kunlun. No matter how big Kunlun is, it cannot tolerate me to spend the least amount of money."

Wang Minglou nodded and stood up. Since Ge Qingteng had already said so clearly, he had nothing to say. And through Ge Qingteng's words, he also understood that Ge Qingteng was much more powerful than he had imagined.

"Luobei, in terms of cultivation, I am far inferior to Qilianliancheng, and even worse than you."

Ge Qingteng did not look at Wang Minglou who was walking out, but lowered his head slightly, looked at the teacup in his hand, and sneered, "But if you want to start a war with me in this regard, I will definitely make you lose a lot."
