"A Tao Te Ching, 100 copper coins."

The young boss handed Fang Wu a copy of the Tao Te Ching and then said.

“So expensive.”

100 copper plates in big cities is equivalent to 100 yuan coins in the previous life. Because big cities have rich products, the prices will be cheaper. Unlike small cities, normal vegetables and fruits are rare.

Everyone mainly eats wild vegetables outside the city.

Papermaking and printing technology these days have actually developed to a certain extent. Paper is not very valuable. Fang Wu still uses paper to wipe his butt when going to the toilet.

"There is nothing you can do, guest, let me tell you, this "Tao Te Ching" has been consecrated by a master. On weekdays..."

"Then give me a book that has never been opened."

Fang Wu returned the "Tao Te Ching" to the other party. The bookstore owner frowned and helplessly took a "Tao Te Ching" with an unimpressive cover and handed it to Fang Wu.

"Then I'll give you this one. The price is 80 copper coins. There are annotations on it."

Fang Wujiang tried this book as a synthetic material and found that there was no problem.

"Okay, here's another one without annotations."

Bookstore owner: "..."

This guy is so stingy, but looking at his clothes, he doesn’t look like someone who has no money.

"There is nothing unexplained here."

The boss sighed, and Fang Wu took out a banknote with the smallest denomination from his pocket and handed it to the other party.

When the boss saw the banknote, his expression suddenly became complicated.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing. It's nothing. Dear guest, please see if there is anything else you want to buy here. Although our store is small, it still has a full range of books. There is even one or two books on martial arts."

He patted his chest and said, but cold sweat kept falling from his forehead.

One tael of silver is equivalent to 1,000 copper plates. What an ordinary family in a small city can earn in a month is actually only one to two taels of silver.

Tiecha City is a bit better, and usually only costs 3,400 taels of silver. Generally speaking, the monthly expenses for a family of three should be around 1,000 taels of silver.

And this customer who looked very stingy gave me a three hundred dollar check. What does that mean?

The bookstore owner thought about the possibility of counterfeit currency, but no one in Daxing could make counterfeit currency. Each banknote had a small pattern on it, which could be used to distinguish authenticity, so the banknote would go out.

It exudes a special "I am real money" atmosphere that even ordinary people can detect.

This is real money.

"Martial arts? What kind of martial arts? Let me see."

Although the system can synthesize martial arts, it can also be synthesized according to its own requirements, such as iron cloth shirts that train muscles, bones and skin, golden body techniques that train internal organs and some other parts, and mainly train resistance to blunt force blows.

The iron city body was actually synthesized by Fang Wu using metal and basic body refining techniques.

But other techniques can also broaden Fang Wu's horizons, so Fang Wu wanted to see the situation.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

The man turned around and walked into a small room. After tinkering for a while, he took out two blue-covered books, which should be the martial arts the other party mentioned.

"I don't have any more of these two secret books here."

"Take a look."

Fang Wu could detect the change in the other party's attitude, and then he took a brief look at it. To be honest, he was not interested.

One is a very common blood refining realm boxing technique, which has a certain power, but is too weak. The other secret book is a short sword martial arts. Fang Wu does not want to use a short sword. Although it is more dexterous, it is too short, one inch shorter than the other.

risk.

"It's of no use to me, so you might as well take it back."

At this time, Fang Wu saw several other customers leaving secretly. There were several copper coins left on a table that was used as a cashier. It seemed that they had paid.

"These people...wait a moment, sir, I want to see what books these people have taken from me."

Fang Wu became very interested at this time and looked through the "Tao Te Ching". Not long after, he heard what the other party said.

"Two volumes of "Collection of Spring and Autumn Paintings", two volumes of "Pictures of Autumn Flowers", and one volume of "Travel Notes to the North."

The bookstore owner picked up the copper coins again and shook them in his ears. The coins kept colliding with each other and making a ringing sound.

"In total, I paid four copper coins less. It's the copy of "Travel to the North". Forget it."

Fang Wu was stunned and didn't understand this operation. It was equivalent to someone taking a stack of soft girl coins, shaking them by his ear, and then saying how many coins there were.

Seeing Fang Wu looking at him like this, the bookstore owner also felt a little embarrassed.

"Sir, I see that you have a lot of energy and blood in your body. It seems that you have practiced many kinds of hard skills. Although you are not as strong as other warriors, when you walked in, you were like a dragon and a tiger, and your footsteps did not touch the ground.

Sound, you should have good attainments in Qinggong."

"The heart beats very strongly and energetically. You have also practiced martial arts to make your internal organs stronger."

"But there is no trace of true energy on your body. You probably haven't broken through to the realm of refining energy yet, and are polishing your energy, blood, and body."

"It's normal for you to disdain the martial arts I gave you, but there are no other martial arts in the shop."

When Fang Wu was told this, he immediately felt that the other person was not simple. There was not much aura about him, which made him think he was just an ordinary person.

"You are really an expert, don't you know where you learned from?"

As soon as he said the words, Fang Wu suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It was not convenient to ask about such things, but the other party didn't care and said it openly.

"Yin Li Gong, have you heard of it?"

The bookstore owner seemed very proud, while Fang Wu was like a poor boy who had just arrived in a big city from the countryside. Apart from knowing about the seven sects, he basically didn't know anything else.

"without."

The other party coughed twice, seemingly choked by Fang Wu's words.

"It's okay if you haven't heard of it. Our sect itself is not as famous as the seven sects..." the bookstore owner said, his voice became a little softer, "It's just that the amount of your banknote is too large, I can't find it at once

, do you have a smaller amount here?"

"Or if you buy a few more books, I'll give you a discount."

Fang Wu saw that there was no one around, approached the bookstore owner, and whispered.

"I just heard that you seem to have "Spring and Autumn Painting Collection" here. I want to buy a copy..."

"Why--"

The other party looked like "we are all men and understand everything", and then took out a "Spring and Autumn Painting Collection" from under a stack of books about food recipes.

"Sir, I want to make a connection with you and give you a 20% discount, 320 Wen."

“So expensive.”

Fang Wu was stunned. He did not expect that a "Spring and Autumn Painting Collection" would be more than three times the price of the consecrated version of the Tao Te Ching after the discount.

"You should also have heard of the name of "Spring and Autumn Painting Collection". This is the book written by that person."

It didn't matter who wrote the book. Fang Wu looked through the "Spring and Autumn Painting Collection" and was silent for a moment.

The stuff here is so exciting.
Chapter completed!
