I want to go back to my original world and live an ordinary life.
Chapter 137 Feng Lao
When Qiu Shuang heard Feng Lao asking about the requirements for the human skin mask, she thought for a moment and then said, "I need a mask for a woman around 20 years old. The face doesn't have to be too seductive, just average. The material must be the best and not easily visible. It should also be voice-changing, so that a man's voice can be turned into a woman's."
Qiu Shuang thought about it again and felt that this was about it. Then she continued, "That's about it. Could you please help me calculate how much it would cost to customize a mask like this?"
"Hmm!" After listening to Qiu Shuang's request, Elder Feng nodded first, then thought deeply for a while, and said to Qiu Shuang, "Shuang girl, if all your requests are fulfilled, the price of this mask may be around 80,000 gold coins. I wonder if you can accept this price."
Qiu Shuang had some understanding of the price of human skin masks. The price given to her by Feng Lao was similar to what she had guessed, so after listening to Feng Lao's words, Qiu Shuang nodded and said, "The price is no problem! Then please help me customize it."
After saying that, Qiu Shuang took out 50,000 gold coins from her storage space, and then said to Feng Lao, "Here is a deposit of 50,000. Please accept it, Feng Lao." Customized items require a deposit first. This is the rule of the black market. Qiu Shuang is quite familiar with the black market, so she understands this rule very well.
Seeing Qiu Shuang take out a deposit of 50,000 gold coins, Feng Lao laughed, and then he didn't say anything polite to Qiu Shuang, just took a look at the gold coins to confirm the number of gold coins, and after finding that the number of gold coins was no problem, Feng Lao waved his hand and collected the 50,000 gold coins. After collecting the gold coins, Feng Lao smiled and said to Qiu Shuang. "Shuang girl, I will help you with your matter as soon as possible, but I am curious to ask, who are you working for now?"
The reason why Old Feng asked this was because Qiu Yan had bought some things from him before, but Qiu Shuang was still very reserved with money at that time, and the things she bought were all cheap things, no more than two hundred gold coins at most. But now Qiu Shuang can take out 50,000 gold coins at a time, and she doesn't even bargain when buying things. In addition, Qiu Shuang herself said that she had left Zhi Lingxuan, so Old Feng was very curious about who Qiu Shuang was working for now, and why she had become so generous and magnanimous.
After listening to Elder Feng's question, Qiu Shuang smiled slightly, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Elder Feng, I can't tell you about this."
After hearing Qiu Shuang's tactful yet polite words, Old Feng smiled with a sense of shame, and then said, "Shuang girl, you are too polite. The rules of the black market are that you only care about money and not the buyer. I was rude just now!"
After saying that, Old Feng laughed heartily again, and then said to Qiu Shuang, "Shuang girl, do you only need a mask this time? Do you need anything else?"
After saying that, while watching Qiu Shuang's reaction, Feng Lao took out a few golden talismans from the counter, and then said to Qiu Shuang, "For example, the Thousand Miles Transmission Talisman, which is very popular recently, would you like a few?"
Qiu Shuang was thinking about whether she had anything else to buy. After hearing what Feng Lao said about the Thousand Miles Transmitting Talisman, Qiu Shuang immediately became interested. It was the first time she heard of this kind of talisman. She was very curious about what it was used for. So she looked at the golden talisman in Feng Lao's hand and asked, "Feng Lao, what kind of talisman is this Thousand Miles Transmitting Talisman? Why haven't I heard of this kind of talisman before?"
Seeing Qiu Shuang was interested, Elder Feng smiled and explained to her, "This Thousand Miles Transmission Talisman was recently developed by the Royal Talisman Master Association. It didn't exist before, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it before. The official name of this Thousand Miles Transmission Talisman is the Thousand Book Talisman, and its function is to transmit letters over long distances. The method is to first drop the blood of the sender on the talisman, and then the other person holds the talisman. No matter how far apart the two people are, as long as they write the words on the Thousand Book Talisman, and then use a little spiritual power to activate the talisman, the formation in the talisman will take effect, and the content written on the talisman will be transmitted to the person who dripped the blood into the talisman. Since this talisman is not limited by distance and can transmit messages from time to time, this talisman has been selling very well since it was launched."
After listening to Master Feng's story, Qiu Shuang probably understood the function of this talisman. She thought about it and felt that this talisman would definitely be helpful for her and Qiu Yan's future contact, so she asked Master Feng, "Master Feng, what is the price of this talisman? I also want to buy some back."
Seeing Qiu Shuang was interested in this kind of talisman, Feng Lao smiled, then waved his hand and said, "Not expensive! Two hundred gold coins each!"
"Two hundred gold coins for one?" Qiu Shuang frowned slightly when she heard the price from Elder Feng. Although she didn't say it explicitly, it was obvious that she felt that this kind of talisman was a bit expensive. Because talismans are different from spiritual tools or skills, talismans are disposable items, so the price of ordinary talismans is not very high. For example, ordinary purification talismans or self-defense talismans only cost a few gold coins. A talisman that costs two hundred gold coins is considered a high price among talismans.
Of course, Qiu Shuang had also heard of talismans with higher prices, but those talismans were all powerful offensive talismans that could be used to save lives at critical moments, so it was understandable that they were a bit more expensive. However, a disposable talisman for transmission like this cost two hundred gold coins, which was indeed a bit high.
Elder Feng seemed to have seen Qiu Shuang's hesitation, so he continued, "Although this kind of talisman is much more expensive than ordinary talismans, its practicality is also unmatched by other talismans, otherwise this kind of talisman would not be sold at such a high price."
After saying this, Old Feng thought for a moment and then continued, "How about this! Although you, Shuang girl, don't buy much from me, you used to come to my shop frequently, so you can be considered an old customer. Today, I will give you a discount. Ten Thousand Book Talismans will only cost you 1,800 gold coins. What do you think?"
Qiu Shuang and Feng Lao were quite familiar with each other. Although Feng Lao was a nice person, he was very stingy and rarely gave discounts. So, when she heard that Feng Lao had given her a discount, Qiu Shuang was quite surprised. Although the discount was not very big, ten talismans were still two hundred gold coins less than the original price. After thinking about it, Qiu Shuang felt that since Feng Lao had given her face and asked for two hundred gold coins less, it would not be appropriate for her to say no. In addition, Qiu Shuang felt that this Thousand Book Talisman was quite good for her. At least with this Thousand Book Talisman, she and Xiao Nan could contact Qiu Yan frequently.
So, thinking of this, Qiu Shuang gritted her teeth and said to Old Feng, "Okay, Old Feng! Then I'll do as you said. One thousand eight hundred gold coins and ten Thousand Book Talismans. I'll buy them!" After that, Qiu Shuang readily took out one thousand eight hundred gold coins from the storage space and handed them to Old Feng. Since the talismans were ready-made, there was no need for a deposit. She could just pay for the goods.
Old Feng took the gold coin handed over by Qiu Shuang and seemed very happy. He waved his hand to accept the gold coin, then took out ten Thousand Book Talismans and handed them to Qiu Shuang, and then said, "Remember, this kind of Thousand Book Talisman must be used after the master is recognized by the blood essence before it can be used. Otherwise, if your letter cannot be delivered, don't come to me, old man."
Hearing what Master Feng said, Qiu Shuang smiled faintly, then took the talisman handed over by Master Feng and said, "Don't worry, Master Feng, I've got it in mind!"
After buying the talisman, Qiu Shuang said goodbye to Feng Lao, because Qiu Shuang was afraid that Feng Lao would sell her things if she stayed any longer. After leaving Feng Lao's shop, Qiu Shuang did not stay in the black market, but went directly to a clothing store. This store was a store that specialized in selling women's clothes, and it was also a store that Qiu Shuang often visited. Qiu Shuang came to this store not to buy clothes for herself, but to prepare clothes for Qiu Yan.
In this store, Qiu Shuang picked out two pieces of girlish clothes for Qiu Yan. These two clothes were not good-looking, but ordinary, because Qiu Shuang's standard was to make Qiu Yan ordinary. Only by being ordinary and not attracting attention could Qiu Yan be safer when she went out.
Therefore, whether it is a custom-made human skin mask or purchased clothes, Qiu Shuang's principle is to be as low-key and ordinary as possible.
After buying clothes, Qiu Shuang went to buy some food. After all, after Qiu Yan left, she and Xiao Nan would continue to stay in the courtyard, and Qiu Shuang didn't want to go out often, so she simply took advantage of this time to prepare more. After buying everything, Qiu Shuang returned to her courtyard. After arriving at the courtyard, Qiu Shuang simply told Xiao Nan what she had done today in a casual way, and then the two began to practice and live according to their previous living habits.
Time passed quickly, and five days passed in the blink of an eye. Qiu Shuang got up early and went out again that day. This time she had only one thing to do, which was to go to Feng Lao's city to get the specially made human skin mask.
After arriving at the black market, Qiu Shuang came directly to Feng Lao's shop without stopping. At this time, Feng Lao seemed to know that Qiu Shuang was coming, and he stood at the door of the shop waiting early. Seeing Qiu Shuang coming, Feng Lao showed a smug smile on his face, and then he looked at Qiu Shuang and said, "Old man, I knew that you would come here early in the morning, so I thought of waiting for you here, but I didn't expect you to really come!"
