Chapter 16 Whale Gum (please read and vote monthly)
Whale Gum?
Gu Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around and entered the medicine shop next to him.
Xiao Wu’s eyes showed confusion, but she still followed Gu Yi.
When the drug store owner saw the middle-aged man coming, a smile appeared on his face, "Mr. Ma, you don't trust me when I do things."
"The whale gum you want, I just arrived at the store today, take a look."
As he said that, the drug store owner took out two fist-sized light yellow crystal stones from the medicine box.
"Mr. Ma, of these two pieces of whale glue, one is thirty years old and the other is more than a hundred years old. Which one do you want?"
The middle-aged man glared. Drug store owner: "A hundred years old? I, an ordinary person, can't afford it. You are so afraid that I won't be killed."
"Just give me the one that is thirty years old."
"Okay, Mr. Ma, please keep it, there are ten gold soul coins in total."
Gu Yi, who witnessed the entire transaction process, was sure that he heard the name of the light yellow crystal correctly.
Information about whale glue quickly came to Gu Yi's mind.
Whale gum is a special substance produced in the brains of cetacean soul beasts in the ocean, or a natural treasure.
It has a very good nourishing effect on soul masters. It can strengthen the body and enhance the endurance of muscles, bones and meridians.
After taking whale gum, the physical quality of a soul master will be greatly improved, as if he has been reborn. This will greatly increase the number of years of soul rings that the soul master can absorb, allowing the soul master to exceed the original limit.
It’s just that this use of whale glue would not be developed by the world until thousands of years later.
Nowadays, whale glue is used for another purpose.
——Whale gum is a great tonic for yang and virility. When taken by ordinary adult men, it has a certain aphrodisiac effect.
So in today’s era, whale gum is taken as a little blue pill.
For example, the middle-aged man ‘Master Ma’ just bought whale glue just for his bedmate’s sake.
However, whale gum is a natural treasure produced by soul beasts. Ordinary people cannot eat too much, otherwise it will not be replenished, but will damage the body.
That fist-sized piece of 30-year-old whale glue is enough for Mr. Ma to use for a month or two, and only one fingernail-sized piece can be used at a time.
"It can strengthen the body and enhance the strength of muscles and bones!" Gu Yi said to himself.
It just so happens that the practice of Jiuxiao Martial Arts in the Qi Martial Realm is to temper the physical body! !
This whale glue from Douluo Continent can be used as a training resource for Qi Martial Realm warriors, making Gu Yi's physical fitness and strength stronger! !
Originally, Gu Yi thought that whale glue would only appear in coastal cities on Douluo Continent.
But what I didn’t expect was that in this small city of Notting, there was whale glue.
What a surprise.
Gu Yi immediately asked: "Boss, how much does this piece of whale gum cost?"
A look of astonishment appeared on the face of the drug store owner: "Children, do you know what this is used for? This is not what a child should ask."
Gu Yi pretended to be ignorant: "Yes. My family asked me to ask, and they said it was used to make medicine.”
The drug store owner immediately understood after hearing this.
This was someone who had something to hide, but couldn't save face and came to the drug store to ask in person, so he asked a child to come and ask the price first.
“This 200-year-old whale gum is worth 50 gold soul coins.” The drug store owner said with a smile.
Fifty gold soul coins... Gu Yi's eyes flashed.
Compared to the benefits that whale glue can bring, this gold soul coin can be said to be very small.
If it were placed in the Peerless Tang Sect era ten thousand years later, century-old whale gum could be sold for thousands of gold soul coins at least. It's a pity that Gu Yi only has 2 silver soul coins and a few copper soul coins on hand, which is far from fifty gold soul coins.
If you receive gold soul coins from the Wuhun Palace, it will take at least two years for a first-level soul master to purchase them.
This is obviously not what Gu Yi wants.
‘It seems that we need to think of a way to make money as soon as possible. ’ Gu Yi thought in his mind.
To practice spirituality, you need a wealthy partner and a dharma ground.
Without enough resources and money, no matter how good your talent is, your practice will not be fast, and it may even stagnate.
In the world of spiritual practice, there are countless such examples.
Whether it is to no longer let the old man Mu Hu go to the Monster Forest to hunt monsters to earn money, or to buy whale gum that can speed up the practice of Qi Martial Realm.
Gu Yi wanted to think of a way to make money quickly as soon as possible.
Gu Yi’s first thought was to become a villain from both worlds, selling items from Douluo Continent and Jiuxiao Continent back and forth!
After seeing the streets and alleys of Notting City today, Gu Yi discovered many products that were different from Qingshan Town.
Gu Yi is confident that if he brings these things to Qingshan Town, he can earn several times the price.
In the same way, Jiuxiao Continent has many things that Douluo Continent does not have, such as pills, which can be used to earn a lot of gold soul coins in Douluo Continent.
It’s just that this method consumes a lot of source power. It takes twenty points of source power every time, which is equivalent to the accumulation of Zhutianmen in two days.
So after thinking about it, Gu Yi gave up this method.
Yuanli is so precious. It is used to connect other worlds and unlock functions such as [Enlightenment]. It is much more precious than ordinary resources. How can it be used casually for such things.
It can only be done incidentally when traveling between the two worlds, and cannot be used frequently.
After all, the most important thing for Gu Yi is cultivation, not being a bad guy.
‘Selling glass? ’ Gu Yi thought for a moment, then shook his head: ‘There are many kinds of martial arts in the Douluo Continent, especially those from the Qibao Glazed Sect. They have already studied the craftsmanship of glass and cannot associate it with the real ancient feudal society. ’
‘On the other hand, in Jiuxiao Continent, the glass industry is still making some headway. ’
Gu Yi thought of tea, salt, iron, distilled liquor, cane sugar, porcelain and antiques and other ways for ancient time travellers to make money, but these were either controlled by the empire and out of reach of ordinary people, and they would die if they touched them.
Either you have a high starting point and you can’t play without some starting capital.
But now Gu Yi's difference is money.
These methods will not work for the time being.
Gu Yi thought about the characteristics of Douluo Continent again, the Great Soul Fighting Arena.
With Gu Yi's cultivation, he can be said to be invincible among the first-level soul masters. It is easy to make money in the big soul fighting arena.
It’s just that Notting City is a small city and there is no big spirit fighting arena at all.
If he wanted to participate in the battle in the Great Soul Arena, Gu Yi had to go to a nearby large city at the main city level. It would take at least four or five days to go there.
Gu Yi rejected this method again.
It’s not worth it to only earn a few gold soul coins for such a long time, and there are also conditions for signing up for the big soul fighting arena. You need to pay ten gold soul coins.
‘Phew, it’s so hard to find ways to make money. ’ Gu Yi rubbed his temples, feeling a little helpless.
‘Is it possible that I want to blacksmith or sell grilled fish? ’ Gu Yi complained in his heart.
Gu Yi had a lot of thoughts in his mind, thinking of ways one by one, and then rejecting them one after another.
