Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey
Chapter 215 Tianbo Chamber of Commerce
Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
One of the largest chambers of commerce in the entire Dashun.
When it comes to shipping and water trade, there is no other. Its business covers all the major rivers and the surrounding oceans. It is said to connect the north and the south and has everything.
Some people say that there are multiple families holding shares behind Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, while others say that the Yellow Robe Emperor takes half of the profits. The entire chamber of commerce is the money bag of the royal family.
Liang Qu doesn't know which one is true and which one is false.
But he knows that the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce branch in Huaiyin Prefecture sold a damaged ancient book for a terrifying price of 1.3 million taels of silver in May.
And transactions like this happen almost every month.
Damn, a book costs more than 1 million taels of silver. Who is spending money to buy these things?
Liang Qu gritted his teeth in envy, his face expressionless, asked Fan Xinglai to make tea, and got up to greet the guests at the door.
Zhu Bingcan, who had a goatee, waved his hands repeatedly: "Mr. Liang is really polite. I have something important to do, so I can't stay any longer. I will leave in a while."
"Manager Zhu came and went in a hurry. I don't know why you came to visit me?"
"To be honest with you, Mr. Liang, the branch building of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce will open on the 18th of this month. A Tianbo auction will be held at that time. I came here to send an invitation to Mr. Liang."
Zhu Bingcan said as he took out a gold-stamped red invitation from his sleeve, held it up with both hands, and presented it respectfully.
Liang Qu took the goose down invitation, opened it, and a piece of golden letter paper slipped out. He held it with his little finger and picked up the paper.
He rubbed it with his fingertips and found that it was not paper at all, but a thin piece of gold!
The afternoon sun shone obliquely, and the golden leaves were shining with a layer of dazzling light, almost blinding the eyes of a country bumpkin like him.
This invitation alone must be worth a lot of money!
Liang Qu took two steps back to avoid the sun.
In the middle of the golden paper, the words, location, time, and name of the inviter were engraved in relief, and the seal of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce was stamped from the middle down.
"The Tianbo Chamber of Commerce only set up branches in the center of the prefecture, but the change of Huaiyin Prefecture to Pingyang Prefecture is the general trend, and the Chamber of Commerce must naturally prepare early.
This auction has been prepared for a long time, and there are many treasures. I look forward to the visit of Lord Liang."
Zhu Bingcan bowed.
For the first auction, of course, local tyrants and dignitaries must be invited.
Although Liang Qu lives in the small town of Yixing, he has a great reputation.
He was a great noble, a disciple of the tiger hunter, an eighth-rank official of the Hebo Office, and a capable general of Xu Yuelong's department. Any identity is well-known.
His current strength is slightly lower, but he can be expected to win in the future, and he is on the invitation list of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
"Please trouble Manager Zhu."
Liang Qu nodded.
"It's my job. Since Lord Liang has received the invitation, my mission has been completed. I still need to rush to the next location..."
"Then I won't keep you here, Manager Zhu. Goodbye."
"Don't see me off."
Zhu Canrong bowed again, stepped back a dozen steps, and turned to leave.
Auction...
Liang Qu flipped through the gold paper.
He was quite interested in the so-called auction. He didn't know what good things would be there. He wanted to go there to broaden his horizons.
Who knows if there would be any unexpected surprises.
But for some reason, when he heard about the auction, he kept thinking about malicious price increases, verbal threats, sneaking around, killing people and stealing treasures, hiding in the swamp, eating sashimi, and growing up secretly.
Even though he had never participated in such a gathering, he couldn't help but think of such a scene.
Strange, was it the first impression that was instilled in him?
No, my brain was very sleepy.
Liang Qu's eyelids were fighting, he quickly put away the invitation, and went back to his room to sleep.
When he woke up again, the sun had not set, but had risen a little.
"I slept for a whole day and a night?"
Liang Qu was a little confused as he looked at the sun rising against the time outside, and he went into the sea of consciousness to check the spiritual connection.
Compared with yesterday, today was very obvious, and the proportion of spiritual connection was reduced by one-sixth!
The golden gong fish really has the effect of strengthening the spirit!
Rare.
After breaking through the galloping horse, Liang Qu's spirit had already grown. With the growth of the golden gong fish this time, the remaining space might be enough to contract two spirits.
But he felt that this was not cost-effective.
The proportion of spiritual connection remained unchanged. For example, at the beginning, the control could not move, and it was always the proportion of ordinary beasts.
Even if it could not move now and had the strength of a galloping horse, the proportion of spiritual connection would not change.
In other words, if it was small at the beginning, it would be smaller in the future. On the contrary, if it was large at the beginning, it would not be smaller in the future.
And apart from the strength factor, the willingness to surrender itself also had a great influence. The round head did not occupy a large proportion because of its high willingness to surrender.
It doesn’t take too much water essence to evolve from an ordinary beast to a spirit.
Too strong spirits have the risk of mental backlash. Liang Qu has no need to give up the number of water beasts he controls in order to control ordinary water beasts. That’s not cost-effective.
It will simply reduce the possibility of the future.
…
“Master Liang has achieved a lot today. I’ll give you twelve small merits.”
Li Shoufu added ink to his brush and wrote a note on Liang Qu’s file.
“What do you want to exchange today? Still three cockscomb fruits?”
“No, I’ll exchange for a finless porpoise token. I have accumulated a hundred small merits, right?”
“Wait a minute, let me see.” Li Shoufu counted and gave a thumbs up. “One hundred and ninety-six small merits, more than enough. Master Liang is the fastest person to accumulate small merits in our Hebo!”
The people around him looked at him and whispered.
Three months, almost two hundred small merits?
No, excluding the exchange, it's more than two hundred!
He looked at the twelve heads at Liang Qu's feet again.
Could it be by killing monsters?
How did he do that?
For ordinary warriors, it is not cost-effective to rely on the task of killing monsters in the river to earn small merits.
It is not easy to find and kill, and it is a waste of time. You can only see one occasionally and kill it.
If you only catch monsters to kill, you will starve to death.
But some people not only did it, but also did it more fiercely than others!
Liang Qu was accustomed to the awe-inspiring eyes of the crowd and pointed to the small merit book.
"One hundred and ninety-six, then ten more Qi-boosting pills and two water source fruits."
Qi-boosting pills are usually used by warriors below the fourth level. Liang Qu was promoted to a horse-running martial artist. The medicinal power of Qi-boosting pills was a bit stretched, so he had to start changing to Qi-boosting pills.
The price is also higher.
As for the water source fruit, it is said to be an upgraded version of the cockscomb fruit. It costs twenty small merits for one. I don't know how effective it is. Let's try it first.
Li Shoufu knew Liang Qu's ability, so he left the long case and led him to collect resources. On the way, he suddenly said.
"By the way, I forgot to tell Lord Liang that our Hebo Office will move to the county tomorrow and will not work on the building ship in the future."
"I saw the notice on the task board. It is closer to my home."
A few days ago, the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce came to invite Liang Qu because the branch rudder was established. Calculating the date, the Hebo Office should be about the same.
"That's a good thing."
Li Shoufu came to the token room and checked the qualifications. The person in charge asked Liang Qu to choose a token from the ordinary finless porpoise column.
Each finless porpoise's token has a number, and the round-headed wife is...
"Found it, three seven four."
"Lord Liang, don't you choose a male? They are all one hundred small merits, but the male is bigger and more helpful."
"No need, this one is good."
The round head helped him find a group of wild finless porpoises last time, and accidentally obtained the tiger-eating man-eating jar, the Buddha sculpture, and the mermaid's tears.
Any of the three items is worth much more than 100 Xiaogong, so Liang Qu must satisfy its wish.
Li Shoufu did not persuade him much, and went to the Dan Pharmacy and the Treasure Planting House to find someone to exchange for Qi-boosting Pills and Water Source Fruits.
After receiving the rewards, Liang Qu finally met his round-headed wife.
