Chapter 122 Buying wine

"Oh, it turns out that your ancestors have such a deep connection with that Supreme Qiao!" Baili Qi said with some envy.

"That's right! When Supreme Qiao entered the fairyland, he took our ancestors and grandmother with him!"

"We, the descendants, are so happy. This is a beautiful story that everyone in our family must know." Dugu Hong said with some pride.

"Master, your dishes are also very delicious! They are really tasty!"

"Is it because the soil and water here are good, or for some other reason?" Bailiqi asked curiously.

"I'm not quite sure about the reason. This is a secret place. Our family is here. Outsiders cannot enter."

"And our in-laws are the famous Duanmu family. They also gave us an 'Earth Spirit Pearl'. We will use this 'Earth Spirit Pearl' to clean the soil every once in a while. This may be a bigger reason."

"Because this 'Earth Spirit Pearl' has the effect of absorbing the spiritual energy from the earth. So, I think it has a lot to do with this 'Earth Spirit Pearl'." Dugu Hong analyzed.

"Master, please tell me about the Duanmu family. I don't know much about them." Bailiqi said.

"A few hundred years ago, the Duanmu family, also known as the Pixiu family, was similar to our family. They were also harmed by evil people and could no longer stay in their family residence. They had no choice but to find a way to migrate. Some of them went abroad, tens of thousands of miles away from us, and some went thousands of miles away from us."

"The people close to us continued to operate and gradually grew stronger. After a while, the branch that migrated tens of thousands of miles away arranged for some people to move back to the branch close to us."

"In this way, their clan will gradually become stronger." Dugu Hong said.

"Then how did you get to know the Duanmu family?" Baili Qi asked.

"This is also related to the Supreme Qiao. The two ancestors of this branch of the Duanmu family also had a very deep friendship with the Supreme Qiao."

"Once, Supreme Qiao was very happy, so he invited all his good friends to get together. It was at that party that the ancestors of our two families became good friends, and later became in-laws." Dugu Hong replied.

"When Supreme Qiao entered the fairyland, he also brought our two ancestors and grandmother into the fairyland. This is the pride of our Duanmu family." At this time, Duan Mulan took over the conversation.

"Master, to be honest, I came here to seek the opportunity of the 'Wind Spirit Pearl'. I heard that the wind here is quite special, so I came here." Bailiqi said.

"Young man, you are my benefactor, I will definitely tell you the truth. There are several 'Wind Spirit Pearls' in my family. We are the Wind Li Clan, and we were almost wiped out back then. Fortunately, our ancestor met Supreme Qiao, and we are here today."

"Back then, our ancestors had a total of nine 'Wind Spirit Pearls'. At that time, they gave two 'Wind Spirit Pearls', one large and one small, to Supreme Qiao. Afterwards, our family did not lend or exchange them with others."

"So we should have the largest number of 'Wind Spirit Pearls'. The Five Spirit Pearls in the hands of other families may be almost gone."

"But, you are my benefactor, so I must give you this 'Wind Spirit Pearl'! Let me become friends with you regardless of age difference, because I also want to learn from my ancestors, make good friends, and give myself an opportunity!" Dugu Hong said.

"Acheng, go get a 'Wind Spirit Pearl' and give it to this young man." Dugu Hong ordered.

Dugu Cheng responded and went out. After a while, he came back with a "Wind Spirit Pearl" and handed it to Baili Qi in person.

"Thank you very much, sir! How much fruit wine do you have?" Bailiqi said.

"We have a lot of wine here, probably over a million kilograms!" Dugu Hong replied.

"What's the price of this wine in the market?" Bailiqi asked.

"The trading price of this wine in the market is one catty and five taels of silver, which is still a bit expensive."

"But if you want to buy it, young man, I'll charge you one or two taels of silver." Dugu Hong replied.

"Master, I have quite a lot of gold and silver on me, so you don't have to be polite to me." Bailiqi said.

Afterwards, he handed the 500,000 taels of silver to Dugu Hong.

When Bailiqi was on the western battlefield, he accumulated a lot of silver and gold.

These hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are nothing. The master can give him a "Wind Spirit Pearl", which can't be bought with any amount of money.

But it was impossible for Dugu Hong to really trade at this price. In the end, Dugu Hong settled the transaction at the price of one catty and three taels of silver.

Firstly, Bailiqi bought a considerable quantity, so he must have given some discounts.

Secondly, as Bailiqi was his benefactor, it was impossible for him not to make some concessions.

Although the cost price of this wine is only about one tael of silver per catty, considering the continued development of the family wine business, the final price was reached at one tael of silver per catty.

This way both sides can make sense.

The meal took quite a while to finish, but everyone enjoyed it very much, and it can be said that everyone got what they wanted.

After the meal, I ate some fruit. There was also the tongue fruit here.

Baili Qi thought about it carefully and thought that this was probably the work of Supreme Qiao.

The reason why Baili Qi was able to find the entrance this time was because Dugu Hong's naughty grandchildren were playing with the "Wind Spirit Pearl" which made the entrance appear.

Under normal circumstances, it is almost invisible because the entrance is almost the same shape and color as the tree.

However, Bailiqi has a close relationship with them, so he will naturally not spread the news, so they are relieved.

Afterwards, Dugu Hong asked Dugu Cheng to take Baili Qi around their place and visit their various orchards, wineries and other places.

Another important reason why they can produce so much wine here is that there are many energetic people here who are working non-stop.

These energy figures are all powered by energy and can perform various operations automatically.

These energetic little people can be found everywhere in orchards, vegetable gardens, and wineries. They work precisely and without mistakes, are tireless, and have no lifespan limit. They are truly enviable.

Dugu Cheng revealed that this was the Duanmu family's ancestral unique skill, and this unique skill of the Duanmu family was not to be passed on to outsiders.

Bailiqi thought, "In the future, if I try to get closer to this Duan Mulan, maybe I can get some powerful people.

With these energy people, many tasks in his secret realm can be handed over to the energy people to do, how great is that!"

Baili Qi and Dugu Hong met and asked about the martial arts they had learned.

The martial arts of the Fengli clan have their own characteristics, but they are still somewhat inferior to the top martial arts. It is no wonder that Dugu Hong was bullied by the Liu family in the capital.

"Master, are you practicing the 'Reunification Heart Method'?" Baili Qi asked.

"There were many people in our family who practiced before, but it seemed that they didn't have the right method, and the effect of their practice was not very good. Later they changed to practice other methods." Dugu Hong replied.

"What's wrong with this practice?" Bailiqi asked.

"Before, our family also sent some people to the Bright Church to learn and practice the "Return to Oneness Heart Method", but practicing this "Return to Oneness Heart Method" requires eating the leaf-wrapped fruit."

"If you don't eat this leaf-wrapped fruit, your cultivation speed will be much slower, and it seems that your cultivation level will not be high either."

"But after eating the leaf-wrapped fruit, most people couldn't endure the severe pain. Some people even couldn't hold on and died. The same happened to people in our family. Several young men also died. So we changed to practicing other skills." Dugu Hong replied.

"Have you ever considered that the leaf-wrapped fruit is not eaten correctly?" Bailiqi asked.

"Is there any particular way to eat this leaf-wrapped fruit?" Dugu Hong asked with some confusion.

"I would like to ask, when the young men in your family ate the leaf-wrapped fruit, did they only eat the fruit and not the leaves?" Bailiqi asked.

"We didn't pay special attention to this. I guess they just ate the fruit. Under normal circumstances, no one would eat the leaves." Dugu Hong replied.
