Chapter 555: Taoist Master Yun begins to quietly promote business for Tianji Pavilion
With the speed of the flying boat, everyone felt that it was feasible, and they quickly decided who would go to the southern border and who would stay and continue to host the lecture tomorrow.
Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Xiao Beichen left quickly.
After hearing what his third senior brother said, Yuntang felt relieved, yet a little helpless.
"The southern border can only be left to Master. Fortunately, I can still go and see how the altar is arranged." But using her merits as a guide would no longer be possible.
There are so many Taoists in Xuantian Temple, all watching us.
"It's okay. Master is our master. The power of merit comes from the same source. I have also discussed the arrangement of the altar with Master in detail." Xiao Beichen hurriedly comforted Xiao Tang'er.
"We will also go to Xuantian Temple at that time. Xiao Tang'er can stay with Third Senior Brother and act according to circumstances." Yun Xuanyu suggested.
When they heard that it was feasible, they all agreed. Yuntang nodded and mingled with the third senior brother to do some small things. It didn't seem like a big problem.
The next day, after the grand ceremony ended, they left without seeing the master. This time, their second senior brother Yun Xuanlan also left with them.
After revealing the fact that the flying boat could reach the northern border town in one night, they brought their second senior brother along, fearing that some uncles or aunts might catch up with them out of curiosity and ask them who was piloting the flying boat.
Even though Fourth Senior Brother is now barely able to fly a flying boat, he could only practice it for a short distance before returning to the capital, and he didn't get to practice it when he was on the road.
The more things that are exposed now, the more careful we have to be. It just so happened that the second senior brother also wanted to go back to the temple to take a look, so we went together.
Sure enough, upon learning that they had already set off, several temple masters who had originally planned to go to Qingfeng Temple together immediately beat their chests and stamped their feet, saying that they had missed out.
Taoist Master Yun was watching from the side, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't dare to say anything, because it was obvious that their disciples had left secretly.
They had to rush to the southern border and could not delay. Those temple masters who wanted to take a walk left a few behind to preside over the lectures, and the rest boarded Taoist Master Yun's flying boat.
For the great practitioners who were usually able to fly swords over short distances or use other Taoist techniques to accelerate, this was their first time riding in a flying boat.
Being able to carry so many people at a time and fly so high, and to get from the capital to the southern border in just one night, is novel and amazing, and everyone exclaims that Qingfeng Temple has great capabilities.
When they knew that Qingfeng Temple had two flying boats, they were extremely envious.
Taoist Yun remembered what Yun Tang said.
Teng Snake and Suzaku can be sold in small quantities, with one costing 500,000 taels of silver. They are not as fast as flying boats and cannot carry as many people as them, but they are much better than flying swords.
It is also easier to operate, and Yuntang still has stock.
No one cared why Yuntang still had stock in his hands, and why he only took out two Vermillion Birds and two Teng Snakes when he went to the Western Territory.
Anyway, they all knew that Xiao Tang'er's background was as deep as an abyss, with no bottom.
What she took out had its reasons.
There is a reason why she doesn't take out what she doesn't take out.
After the flying boat was exposed, Yuntang discussed the number with his master and fellow brothers.
The twelve Teng Snakes and the twelve Vermillion Birds were sold at the Tianji Pavilion, and she asked for the cost price of two hundred thousand taels.
So, while these temple masters were envious, Taoist Yun began to quietly promote business for Tianji Pavilion.
This time, I only dared to say it after I was sure that I had a small amount of goods.
Otherwise, if the same thing happens again as last time, we get the business but Tianji Pavilion doesn’t have the stock, it will be embarrassing...
Everyone then realized that this kind of wooden puppet is not only the Azure Dragon, but also that there are certain strength requirements for the user of the Azure Dragon. Teng Snake and Suzaku can be used as long as they have reached the middle stage of the Heavenly Master Realm.
This means that there are many practitioners who can use Teng Snake and Suzaku, while there are only a few Taoist sects in the world who can use Qinglong.
So everyone began to calculate whether they could raise enough money to build a wooden puppet from their assets and the temple.
Five hundred thousand taels of silver is enough to buy it.
However, they usually need some resources for their practice, and they don't have much cash on hand.
The temple also needs to support disciples and save resources for cultivation. It is impossible to spend all the savings just to buy a wooden puppet.
Therefore, many people said that they would wait a few days before placing an order, and asked Brother Yun to reserve the goods for them, and to give priority to the temples, and not to make a profit just because a Taoist priest has money.
This kind of instrument that is helpful for practice is more convenient to use in temples and monasteries.
Some Taoists are very rich, such as Lan Jue, who was born into a wealthy family. They can afford it, but they do not make better use of this wooden puppet.
For example, last year when there was a snowstorm and demon disaster in the north, their Taoist temples in the north sent a large number of people down the mountain to rescue the disaster and slay the demons.
The Western Territory was in turmoil and plagued by demons, so the Azure Dragon Guards sent a lot of forces to the Western Territory. Many Taoist priests in temples in the Southwest and South Territories, led by Xuantian Temple and Taixuan Temple, were also busy for a long time.
If there was a magical instrument like this that could transport more than a dozen people at the same time, they would feel a little more relaxed.
There were also many Taoist temples in the southwest in the past, but three years ago, big monsters were rampant, fallen gods moved eastward and killed many Taoists, and the Taoists in the west were almost extinct.
Later, the Qinglong Guards slayed demons and killed their way through the entire Western Territory, and finally took back a large amount of lost territory in the Western Territory. The surviving Taoists also gathered in the Western Territory, and there were almost no Taoist temples in the Western Territory.
At that time, the entire Western Territory was like a purgatory on earth. Civilians, garrisons, and Taoist temples suffered heavy casualties, and rivers of blood flowed.
If there were such a flying device that could carry a large number of people, Taoist priests from other palaces and temples could be transported from the south, southeast, and even the east and north to help.
It can also gather a large amount of strength overnight to maintain peace in a region.
You may be envious, you may want to buy something, but you may not have money.
A flying weapon like this is indeed a great advantage for those who practice Taoism and whose mission is to slay demons and eliminate evil.
Taoist Master Yun naturally agreed, and it was for this reason that his lovely little disciple took out so many Teng Snakes and Suzaku and asked the master to take them out at the right time to help others.
But this kind of thing should not be given away casually except to one's own disciples.
Free things are useful, but they can also easily lead people to underestimate their value. People may think they are everywhere on the streets and fail to take good care of them when they use them.
If you still ask them if they have stock and want everyone to have one, then you're just... asking for trouble, right?
Five hundred thousand taels, not only is the cost really not low, but it is also hoped that every palace or temple has the financial resources to buy it, and that they all know that it is not cheap and will cherish it.
The quantity is limited, and these palaces and temples are the target of sales.
Seeing that these viewers were hesitant because of the price, and were afraid of being out of stock due to being late, they were very conflicted in their words.
Taoist Yun kindly suggested: "You can place an order with 100,000 taels first. If you decide not to buy it after the Luotian Grand Ceremony, just return the deposit."
"Of course, we will give priority to the families. If there are any extras, we can sell them at Tianji Pavilion. You all know the benefits of this magic weapon, so you won't have any trouble selling it."
"How come there are only twelve of these wonderful instruments?" someone asked in confusion.
Taoist Master Yun showed a helpless expression: "We are out of materials. There are fourteen of each, and we used two for ourselves."
Therefore, whether there will be any goods in the next batch depends on whether we can gather all the materials.
When everyone heard this, they expressed their desire to place an order for fear of falling behind.
