I can bless thousands of magical powers
Chapter 31 Soaring Prices
That night, Zhang's mother used all her cooking skills to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
It was called sumptuous, but in fact it was only four dishes and one soup.
But there were vegetables, meat and egg drop soup on the table, which was equivalent to the level of New Year's Eve dinner for ordinary people!
Zhang Yuan ate all the food clean.
Although his mother's cooking skills were ordinary, this was the taste he was most familiar with.
It was the taste of home.
After dinner, Zhang Yuan came to his room and took out a cloth bag from his arms.
He began to count today's gains.
Three silver notes, with denominations of fifty, fifty and twenty, totaling one hundred and twenty taels of silver.
The high-interest loan from the pawnshop can be paid off!
In addition, the scattered silver taels added up to more than ten taels, which Zhang Yuan planned to give to his mother for daily expenses.
With this unexpected fortune, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.
It can only be temporary.
Because the expenses on practicing martial arts are a bottomless pit, and I don't know how much silver taels it will take to fill it.
Zhang Yuan is now taking one step at a time.
Finally, he took out a purse from the bag.
This purse was seized from Chen Deping, the great official. Since the situation was still critical at the time, Zhang Yuan had no time to open it for inspection.
He pulled the rope of the purse and poured out everything inside.
What disappointed Zhang Yuan was that this purse, which was treasured by Chen Deping, only contained a Tianhuang seal and a folded yellow paper.
The seal was very delicate, with Chen Deping's name engraved on the bottom, which was obviously the private seal of this official.
The material of this thing itself is quite valuable.
But unless Zhang Yuan's head was kicked by a donkey, there is no way he could sell it!
Throwing the private seal aside, Zhang Yuan opened the yellow paper again.
A simple map appeared in front of him.
"Huh?"
Zhang Yuan felt that the picture was familiar, and immediately spread it all out on the table to examine it carefully.
He recognized that this map was at least 70% similar to the treasure map on his chest, but it was not very complete. The former seemed like a poor imitation of the latter.
And the route indicated by this map was exactly the same as the road that the Chen family had built before!
That was right.
As Zhang Yuan guessed, the unusual behavior of the Chen family was closely related to the treasure of Qianfeng Mountain.
But I am afraid that Mr. Chen will never know the real reason until his death.
Heavenly man!
He recalled what Chen Deping said before his death, and a bigger question arose in his heart.
What kind of existence is that "heavenly man" that can make the Linhe Chen family desperate to please him.
Doing such an incredible thing, leading to the outbreak of strange disasters, and even implicated the county!
Zhang Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and picked up the map to the oil lamp.
Burn it clean.
Then he smashed Chen Deping's Tianhuang seal, crushed it into powder, and threw it into the toilet.
In fact, this kind of private seal is often related to the wealth of the owner and is a voucher for withdrawing certain items.
Chen Deping did not carry much silver on him, and his family members and houses and shops were all in the city.
With this big man disappearing from the world, this seal might play a huge role.
But Zhang Yuan did not have the slightest greed and destroyed it thoroughly!
He opened the God's Nest panel.
[Host: Zhang Yuan]
[Realm: First Order (Ming Jin)]
[God's Nest: Level 1 (45%)]
[Parent: Level 2 Black Giant Ant (18%)/4 times Strength]
[Parent: Level 2 Jade Mantis (5%)/Intermediate Sword Skills Mastery]
[Parent: Level 1 Golden Grasshopper (1%)/2 times Agility]
[Qi and Blood: 46/112]
[Source Quality: 15.9]
The data on the panel did not change much, only the number of source quality points increased to nearly 16 points.
This is the result of sacrificing more than ten people from the Chen family, including a warrior.
Suddenly became rich!
Zhang Yuan thought about it and first invested 5.9 points of source essence into the third host, the golden grasshopper.
The remaining 10 points were all given to the main body of the God's Nest.
5.9 points of source essence should be enough for the golden grasshopper to evolve to level 2.
By then, the ability blessing of 4 times agility is enough to match his current strength.
Now that the three nests of the God's Nest are all filled, upgrading and expansion are imperative, so they must be taken into account.
However, if his game experience in his previous life is still applicable, then the source essence required to upgrade the main body of the God's Nest should be much higher than upgrading a certain host - 10 points of source essence may not be enough.
The current God's Nest already has 45% of the evolution degree.
This evolution degree is actually obtained by housing three extraordinary gene bodies, otherwise more source essence would be needed!
The problem is that such a big thing happened in Qianfeng Mountain, and it is still unknown whether it can go into the mountain to hunt again in the future.
The conditions for obtaining the source essence are actually quite harsh. It must be a trophy hunted by Zhang Yuan himself.
Animals and beasts count, as do enemies and opponents, but if he spends money to buy a domestic animal to slaughter and sacrifice, the God's Nest will not approve it at all.
Zhang Yuan has tried this before!
Such rules undoubtedly greatly limit his way to obtain the source essence, and he cannot take shortcuts.
He can only take it slowly.
The next morning, Zhang Yuan left home and went to the pawnshop in the city.
Pay back the money.
He borrowed fifty taels of silver from the pawnshop, and the interest for one day was 2%.
It was actually quite conscientious.
But Zhang Yuan couldn't afford such a conscience.
He had no choice at that time.
After paying the principal and interest, Zhang Yuan successfully got back the mortgaged house deed in the pawnshop.
The shopkeeper of the pawnshop was a thin middle-aged man. He was a little surprised that Zhang Yuan paid off his debts so quickly. He rolled his eyes and asked with a smile: "Dear guest, does your family need maids and servants?"
"You are an old customer, you can give me a discount!"
Maids and servants?
Zhang Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No need for the time being, thank you."
Poor in literature and rich in martial arts, he now has a lot of expenses for practicing martial arts, and he has to support himself and his mother.
How can he afford to buy more servants.
You must know that the host family needs to pay a head tax for maids and servants. The fixed expenditure of three taels per person per year, plus the daily food and clothing and monthly expenses, is simply not something that ordinary people can afford.
This pawnshop is really good at doing business!
The owner of the pharmacy smiled and said, "You are too polite. If you need anything in the future, just come to us."
Zhang Yuan nodded.
He went to the pharmacy again to buy the herbs needed for practicing.
What Zhang Yuan didn't expect was that the prices of several medicines he often bought actually increased, and the increase was quite large!
Not only that, the owner of the pharmacy looked like he didn't want to buy.
Zhang Yuan endured it and still took out silver to buy a batch.
The medicine can't stop!
He knew very well that the soaring price of medicine had a great relationship with the current closure of the county.
Zhang Yuan walked all the way here, and most of the shops on both sides of the street were open.
But those shops involving the sale of rice, grain, salt and oil were all surrounded by people.
Many people were rushing to buy necessities for survival.
These items also increased a lot, causing everyone to complain.
He couldn't help but look in the direction of Qianfeng Mountain, but was blocked by the high city wall.
The future is unknown and unpredictable!
