The experience of living in the cold palace

Chapter 14: Bottlenecks don’t exist! (Please collect and read)

"Eunuch Lu, this is the admission fee for the two of us."

Xiao Jizi walked up to a white-haired father-in-law and respectfully handed over two coins.

Seeing this, Li Xuan did not stop Xiao Jizi from helping him advance the money.

If he keeps refusing Xiao Jizi's flattery, it will make Xiao Jizi feel frightened and create a gap between them.

Besides, Xiao Jizi had planned to steal his money before, so this money was regarded as an apology.

The white-haired Eunuch Lu weighed the money in his hand and said with a smile:

"Come in quickly. There are a lot of people here today. I hope you can all buy what you need."

Xiao Jizi bowed: "Yes, I accept your blessing."

With that said, he greeted Li Xuan and walked into the palace.

Li Xuan gave a slight salute to Eunuch Lu, followed closely behind, and walked in.

Entered the palace.

There is actually a courtyard the size of a basketball court, with people coming and going.

However, most of these people wore masks, obviously not wanting others to discover their identities.

It's like a real night market, with stalls selling all kinds of things.

There are calligraphy and paintings, calligraphy books, elixirs, cosmetics, etc., all available!

There are also many things that cannot be bought in the warehouse of the Ministry of Industry, and they are also available here.

Looking further inside, there are also stalls placed in the main hall behind the courtyard.

Figures of people were wandering in front of various stalls, asking about prices.

‘It’s really done well, Zhu Houzhao has to praise him when he comes! ’ Li Xuan clicked his tongue.

Xiao Jizi said from the side: "That Eunuch Lu outside is the eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, who works under Eunuch Wei, the general manager of the palace. As long as Eunuch Lu is here, no one will dare to cause trouble in the small night market."

"However, you have to be careful when leaving the small night market. Some eunuchs with evil intentions will also take the opportunity to rob."

Li Xuan's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that this father-in-law had such a big background, so he couldn't help but ask:

"By the way, why does Eunuch Wei want to run this small night market? The admission fee alone is only sixty or seventy taels of silver a month. This kind of income is almost negligible to Eunuch Wei."

He took a general look and found that there were about one or two hundred people in this small night market.

The total admission fee is less than twenty taels at most.

The small night market is open every seven days, four times a month, which works out to more than seventy days!

The money was not even enough for Eunuch Wei to buy a pill needed for cultivation.

Xiao Jizi said: "I guess Eunuch Wei will not accept this money. It is a channel for making money opened up by the people below. After all, in addition to the small night market, there is also a big night market. The admission fee for the big night market is quite high." Two taels of silver, so that’s over a hundred taels of silver in a month. The reason why Eunuch Wei supported it was firstly because he wanted his subordinates to have enough food, and secondly, it was also to provide more food for us low-level eunuchs. resource channels.”

"After all, we are all eunuchs. Compared to Eunuch Wei, we are our own people. If there are eunuchs who can get benefits from the night market and then come forward, it will be a good thing for Eunuch Wei."

Li Xuan couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jizi and nodded slightly.

The little red guy looked at him with a sinister look, but he didn't expect that his analysis was quite thorough.

certainly.

Li Xuan didn't bother to guess what Eunuch Wei was thinking. Anyway, for now, this small night market could indeed bring him some help.

Xiao Jizi said: "Brother Xuan, I'm going to go shopping first. Let's meet here after we have a stick of incense."

"Well, let me see if there is anything good." Li Xuan nodded.

When he saw Xiao Jizi walking into the crowd, he withdrew his gaze and wandered around various stalls.

"Look, good Huoyun chicken can quickly increase the strength of meat-refining warriors. It only costs one tael of silver per pound."

"Black cold iron can be used to create three forged mortal weapons. It only costs five taels of silver to take away."

"Selling various elixirs at favorable prices, buy six and get one free."

"Selling the special product of the Kamikaze Kingdom, cloud brocade, for three taels of silver a piece."

"The skin of the golden python can be used as medicine or for external application. It is excellent for healing wounds. You can take away four taels of silver."

Li Xuan looked at the dazzling array of products on the stall and felt greatly enlightened.

There are many things here that cannot be bought in the palace, and some are even banned items.

I didn’t expect that they can be sold in this small night market!

‘This man actually sells weapon materials. Could he be from Dongchang? ’ Li Xuan thought.

After all, except for the eunuchs in Dongchang who can carry weapons, the eunuchs in the palace cannot carry weapons.

The so-called Dongchang was a secret service agency directly led by the emperor. Its main responsibilities were to supervise officials, collect various intelligences, conduct investigations and arrests, and even conduct trials and prison sentences.

If Si Li among the Twelve Prisons is the pen in the eunuch's hand, then Dongchang is the sword in the eunuch's hand!

At present, Wei Jingzhong, the general manager of the department, serves as the eunuch of the Si Li Supervisor and the factory supervisor of the East Factory.

Since this small night market has connections like Wei Jingzhong, it is understandable that people from Fangdongchang would come in.

'It's a pity that I can't use weapons at all now. ’ Li Xuan shook his head and stopped paying attention.

He walked around the courtyard and found nothing suitable, so he entered the hall again.

There were more street stalls here than outside, which made Li Xuan dazzled.

Suddenly.

His eyes moved and he came to a stall.

There are books of martial arts secrets placed here, most of which are very old.

"Can I take a look?" Li Xuan asked.

"If you look at them, they are all treasures. There are various annotations in them. You can get started even without anyone's instruction." The stall owner said calmly.

Li Xuan flipped through one book after another, and finally picked up a secret book and asked, "How can I sell this book?"

On the cover of this secret book, there are five words written "Guiyuan Point Diagnosing Hand".

Obviously, this is a point-and-click technique.

The stall owner said: "This is a low-level sixth-level martial arts. In some aspects, it is not inferior to the middle-level martial arts. It costs at least five taels of silver."

You are such a liar... Li Xuan rolled his eyes in his heart and said, "Who doesn't know that acupuncture is the most difficult to learn? Some people can't get started after learning it for a year or two. If you sell it at such an expensive price, who will buy it? Besides, you can sell this martial arts secret book many times, so don’t be too open-minded."

"Then tell me the number." The stall owner said.

"Two taels of silver."

"make a deal."

"..." Li Xuan.

Damn it, the price is still too high.

The stall owner didn't even raise the price. It was obvious that the price quoted by Li Xuan had exceeded the stall owner's psychological expectations.

but.

Li Xuan didn't feel like he was at a loss either.

Just now he looked through the "Guiyuan Point Pointing Hand" and found that the various annotations in it were very clear, and it should be a real secret book.

If he can get started with cultivation, then he will compete for management in the future. Once he needs to compete, he will have a greater chance of winning, and it will not be easy for him to reveal his true strength.

After all, this acupuncture technique is all about using the weak to overcome the strong!

Unfortunately, if you want to get started with this acupuncture technique, you must be familiar with each acupuncture point on the human body.

This takes a long time.

People without talent can't even get in.

Moreover, in the later stages of acupuncture practice, it is easy to fall into a bottleneck and be unable to improve.

This may be why stall owners are eager to take action.

However, this kind of difficulty is nothing to Li Xuan.

He has a martial arts experience bonus.

Bottleneck or something? nonexistent!
