Chapter 59, Borrowing money
At Zhulu Academy, it is very troublesome for students to go down the mountain. Except for specific holidays, they can only go out after obtaining a pass issued by the academy. This causes a lot of inconvenience.
For example, some disciples need some heavenly materials and earthly treasures to practice Yuan skills, but their progress is stagnant because of the lack of a few things. This is a very big loss.
Therefore, in response to this kind of situation, the college opened a trading place in an area in the northwest of the college. This trading place can be entered by both inner and outer courtyard disciples, without time or identity restrictions.
Here, the disciples can freely trade what they need. As for the source of the treasures, they are usually found by the disciples in some mountains. Some instructors and deacons from the college will sometimes visit the trading place to look for the treasures.
There is nothing you need.
It has been like this for hundreds of years, so there are many treasures gathered there, including some rare medicinal materials and jade, and even weapons and elixirs are sold.
The college never interferes in this matter, but only maintains order appropriately. If someone dares to cause trouble in the trading place, the college will never sit idly by and ignore it. After all, this is also established by the college, and naturally it cannot be allowed to cause chaos.
Yan Ting rarely came here before, and Zhulu Academy was very large, so it took Yan Ting half an hour to get from the back mountain to the trading ground.
This trading ground also covers a large area, comparable to the large square at the main entrance of the college. There are stone tables and platforms set up everywhere, with various commodities placed on them.
Due to the two assessments of the academy in the past two months, the number of disciples has dropped sharply. The trading place, which is usually bustling with people coming and going, is the most lively area. At this time, there are only three to four hundred people, and some stone platforms are also empty.
, it can be seen that the assessment has had a huge impact on this place.
Yan Ting walked around the trading floor, looking for the medicinal materials he needed.
The medicinal materials needed by Earth Xuanjia are all earth-based. Such medicinal materials may only be found deep in the mountains. Here, Yan Ting found the medicinal materials he needed, and almost all of them are available in the trading place.
"It's true that it has hundreds of years of heritage. It's richer than the big market in Akabane City." Yan Ting sighed.
He originally thought that he wouldn't be able to find what he needed here, but now it seems that he has underestimated this trading place.
"How to sell Yan Kui Cao?" Yan Ting came to a stone platform and asked the owner of the stone platform with a very calm tone. He couldn't let the other party know that he urgently needed this medicinal material, otherwise the other party might make a big noise.
After helping his family manage their accounts for several years, Yan Ting has long been familiar with these shopping mall routines.
The young man chuckled, stretched out five fingers and said: "Five hundred gold coins per plant, the more you buy, the more discounts you will get."
The young man's words almost made Yan Ting's eyes fall down. He tried his best to control his emotions and cursed in his heart: "How cruel, five hundred gold coins per plant."
Although Yankui grass is not particularly precious, it is also one of those medicinal materials that is difficult to find. It contains more earth-attribute energy. With his current cultivation level, if he wants to cultivate the Earth Black Armor, Yankui grass is one of the best medicinal materials.
It's just that this Yankui grass that costs three hundred gold coins outside has become five hundred gold coins here. It's really unscrupulous. This person clearly thinks that he is young and easy to deceive.
"Is your price too expensive? The price of rockweed is not that high." Yan Ting said coldly.
After listening to Yan Ting's words, the young man's face changed slightly, and the smile gradually faded, and he said: "I picked these rock grass from the World of Warcraft Forest. For this reason, I also fought with the second-level Warcraft."
I fought and was injured. I paid for it with my life, and the price is already very reasonable."
Yan Ting shook his head and was about to leave. This profiteer really took him for a fool.
Seeing Yan Ting leaving

, the young man quickly shouted: "Hey, wait a minute."
"Is something wrong?" Yan Ting turned around and asked.
"Four hundred and fifty gold coins per plant. If you buy ten plants, you get four thousand gold coins. How about that?"
Yan Ting glanced at him lightly, turned and left.
"Hey, three hundred and fifty gold coins, forget it if you don't want to buy it. The price cannot be lowered, otherwise I will lose money." Perhaps the young man was really afraid that Yan Ting would leave, so he cruelly lowered the price again and again. This was
His first business today cannot be a dirty deal.
Yan Ting smiled, stretched out two fingers, and said something that made the young man's feet weak: "Twenty plants, six thousand five hundred gold coins, you can get them without selling them!"
The latter looked melancholy. Looking at the young man, he couldn't help but feel speechless. This bargaining was too harsh.
Yan Ting put twenty pieces of rock grass into the space ring. He smiled with satisfaction. He was still a little too young to fight with him.
The academy only gave him 20,000 gold coins, and there were a lot of medicinal materials to buy. He needed a lot of earthy medicinal materials to make potions, so he couldn't just buy a little of each item, otherwise he would have to go back and forth, which would be extremely troublesome.
Of the 20,000 gold coins, Yankui grass alone cost 6,500 gold coins. Yan Ting couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had better think carefully about how to allocate gold coins to the next medicinal materials.
In fact, in addition to trading with gold coins, treasures of the same value can also be exchanged in the trading place. However, apart from those gold coins, Yan Ting only has the Zengyuan Pill, and he has other uses for the Zengyuan Pill, so naturally it is impossible to exchange it.
.
"Poor, poor!" Yan Ting walked leisurely in the courtyard, humming a tune, looking left and right.
Half a day passed, and Yan Ting bought some of the medicinal materials he needed at the trading place. In the blink of an eye, only a few dozen gold coins were left from the 20,000 gold coins, which were left because he could not even afford the cheapest medicinal materials.
Playing with the space ring in his hand, Yan Ting looked depressed. This was still a little worse, but he no longer had any money. But without those few medicinal materials, the effect of cultivation would be greatly reduced.
"Well, when everyone has difficulties, don't stick to those small details." As if he had made a lot of determination, Yan Ting temporarily left the trading place,
An hour later, Yan Ting stood in front of a room with a blush on his face. This was the area where girls lived. Although the college did not stipulate that men and women could not interact with each other, it was really embarrassing for him to come here alone.
.
Moreover, he had no choice but to come here.
Originally, he planned to go directly to Buyunya, but the latter was not in the room, and he did not know where he had gone to practice. The rest of the people, Yan Ting, could not be found, and Qin Feiling, as far as he knew, usually rarely
He walked out of the room, so he planned to come to Qin Feiling to borrow some money.
He knocked softly on the door, and then the door creaked open.
"You...why are you here?" Qin Feiling was a little panicked, her little face was full of surprise, and she looked at Yan Ting with a pair of watery eyes, as if she were looking at a monster.
Yan Ting felt uncomfortable being looked at like this. He smiled awkwardly and asked, "Do you have any money?"
"Ah: Huh?" Qin Feiling didn't fully react to the first sound, but the second one directly expressed her disbelief.
Yan Ting lowered his eyes and laughed dryly: "Don't be so surprised. There will never be any difficulties in life. Don't worry, I will return it to you soon."
"Oh -" After a long sound, Qin Feiling smiled and said: "I just didn't expect that you would come to me to borrow money. What about your little follower? Does he have no money? Oh, by the way, you
She should have looked for him first and then came to me." Qin Feiling analyzed to herself, causing Yan Ting to frown slightly.
"Do you have money?" Yan Ting asked tentatively.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Yes, what are you going to do?" Qin Feiling pouted, folding her arms on her slightly bulging chest, looking like an arrogant master.
"I have spent all my money on shopping, but there is still some money left." Yan Ting said truthfully.
Qin Feiling pursed her lips and smiled, taking out a space ring. This move made Yan Ting's eyes narrow. Qin Feiling indeed had a space ring, but he was not too surprised. He had long known that Qin Feiling had an extraordinary identity.
, even the fifth-level elixir can be given to him as a gift, and there is nothing strange about having a space ring.
"Here, take it. There are 100,000 gold coins in this ring, which should be enough for you to spend a while." Qin Feiling threw the ring to Yan Ting casually, which made Yan Ting stunned.
"Isn't it enough? I have some more here. You can take them." Looking at Yan Ting's dull expression, Qin Feiling thought that one hundred thousand gold coins were missing. She took out another space ring and threw it into Yan Ting's hand.
"There should be more than 200,000 gold coins in here. I only brought these out. If you don't have enough, there is nothing I can do."
Qin Feiling spread out her little hands, showing that she was trying her best.
Looking at the two rings in his hand, Yan Ting grunted and swallowed.
Two space rings. When did space rings become so worthless? Can space rough stones be picked up anywhere?
The two rings contained a total of more than 300,000 gold coins, which was equivalent to a day's profit from all the Yan clan's industries, not including all expenses. Qin Feiling gave it to him like this.
At this moment, Yan Ting suddenly felt like he was being taken care of.
"I will try my best to pay you back within three years." It took a long time before Yan Ting said this, but when he said it, he had no confidence at all.
How can a sixteen-year-old boy earn more than three hundred thousand gold coins in three years?
"Forget it, it's not much. If I hadn't been in a hurry, I could have brought some." Qin Feiling said it calmly, as if she had done something insignificant.
"No, if I don't repay the money I borrowed from you the first time, how will I be able to survive in the future? I will repay the money as soon as possible. Thank you." Yan Ting immediately retorted. In his opinion, borrowing money from a woman is already a waste of time.
It is already very embarrassing. If he borrows money and fails to repay it, he will not be able to see anyone else again.
Qin Feiling remained silent, with a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes.
"Why are you being so polite to me? Without you, I might not have the chance to give you money." Whispering in her heart, Concubine Qin leaned against the door with her Lingxiang shoulder, her eyes lost in confusion.
"Then I'll leave first." Yan Ting was about to leave. After staying here for a long time, he was afraid that others would discover him and would be laughed at for this reason, and his face would not look good.
"you……"
"Hmm? Is there anything else?" Hearing Qin Feiling's voice, Yan Ting turned around and looked at her.
Qin Feiling's lips parted and closed, but she finally said nothing. She shook her head and said, "It's okay. Please hurry up. The selection for the inner court is less than a month away."
Yan Ting thought something was wrong with her, but after knowing that she was reminding him, she smiled and said: "Don't worry, the only ones who can defeat me in the outer courtyard are you and Mo Xuanzang. I will definitely have no problem entering the inner courtyard, so I'll leave first.
"
After Yan Ting finished speaking, he ran directly to the trading place. He wanted to buy the medicinal materials quickly and practice the Earth Mysterious Armor more intensively. Maybe by then, with the Earth Mysterious Armor joining him, even Mo Xuanzhang might not be his opponent.
Qin Feiling stood by the door and murmured: "Yan Ting, I have found the culprit of the beast wave in the academy, but it doesn't make much sense to tell you now. I will tell you after the selection of the inner academy is over.
of."
"When the time comes, we will work together to punish this bastard who caused thousands of casualties in the college. However, it seems that his target is not the college, but you alone."
