What did he say about the best black stone powder

  Two catties

  The young masters were stunned. Black stone powder was an absolute luxury in the Great Chu Dynasty. People bought it by the coin. One coin cost several taels of silver. The best black stone powder in Taigufang was top-grade, and top-grade black stone powder was comparable to gold. How could you buy it like this?

  It was too bullying

  Two catties was sixteen taels per catty, and two catties was thirty-two taels, which was equal to three hundred and twenty coins. According to the price of top-grade black stone powder, it would cost at least nearly thirty taels of gold. If it was converted into silver taels, it would be nearly three thousand taels of silver. If it was converted into copper coins, it would be millions of copper coins.

  The Great Chu Dynasty was not considered wealthy among the seven major countries. The national income was low. One hundred copper coins were enough for an ordinary family of three to eat for a month.

  "Okay, why are you all still standing there? Go pour the tea. Go to the storehouse and get two kilograms of top-grade black stone powder. Remember, it should be the best kind." Shopkeeper Jin, who was wearing a golden robe with wide edges, rubbed his hands with a smile on his face, and he was obviously not surprised at all.

  Because he knew that the Shen family in Dajing had a second daughter who was a super spendthrift.

  Lin Yi grinned and sat down on the armchair next to Shopkeeper Jin without being polite.

  This was Shopkeeper Jin's special chair, carved from thousand-year-old red sandalwood. On weekdays, he was not allowed to touch it. But when he saw Lin Yi sitting on it, Shopkeeper Jin did not even frown. Instead, he held the back of the chair with a smile on his face, fearing that Lin Yi would fall off it.

  Soon, the rain-previous Longjing tea with a faint fragrance was served directly.

  Lin Yi took a sip from the cup, and seemed unsatisfied. He threw the cup aside, then crossed his legs, hummed a little tune, and looked relaxed.

  "Hehe Lin Yi, what have you thought about the matter I told you last time? Don't worry about your contract. Leave it to me. I tell you, as long as we work together, it will be absolutely invincible." Shopkeeper Jin looked at Lin Yi expectantly.

  Cooperation with Taikoo Place Shopkeeper Jin is a well-known rich man in Dajing. He actually wants to cooperate with this poor man. The young masters looked at each other again, full of disbelief.

  "Let's talk about it later." Lin Yi waved his hand directly, with a look of impatience.

  Actually rejected several young masters and suddenly felt that their IQ was not enough.

  "Okay, then you must remember it. By the way, this little gift, please give it a try." Shopkeeper Jin waved his hand, and a servant took a bag and handed it to Lin Yi respectfully.

  "I heard that you Taikoofang recently got a few stone books on the ground." Seeing the bag in front of him, Lin Yi was not polite at all. He directly stretched out his hand to put the bag in his arms, and then said to the shopkeeper Jin.

  "That's right, but that thing is too heavy, so it can only be placed in the backyard. If you want to see it, you can only go to the backyard." Shopkeeper Jin was slightly stunned, and then he said directly.

  "Okay, let's go to the backyard to have a look." Lin Yi turned over and jumped down from the armchair, and then walked straight to the backyard. Shopkeeper Jin smiled secretly and immediately followed Lin Yi.

  The stone book on the ground is a rare thing, but he actually let this kid see it for nothing. Moreover, this kind of thing will lose its value after seeing it

  However, the book on the ground is not so easy to understand. For someone like him, it is estimated that he doesn't even know the divine text

  But who is this guy? Why does Shopkeeper Jin of Taikoofang flatter him so much?

  Strong curiosity made several young masters follow behind quickly.

  The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

  Taikoofang, which can obtain the Emperor's plaque, is first-class in the capital in terms of scale and quality of goods. The layout of the front yard is luxurious and precious, but the layout of the backyard is more confident. The precious antiques are placed all over the backyard as if they are free.

  Various precious weapons and armors are neatly arranged on the mahogany racks around. Lin Yi directly skipped these. There are too many of these things in the Shen Mansion. Only the few young beasts locked in the iron bars can make Lin Yi look at them more.

  In the Great Chu Dynasty, it is not surprising to raise monsters, and the most valuable ones are the young beasts.

  Lin Yi did not approach. If he approached the young beasts before he had the strength, he would be courting death. After all, it was a monster with a bad temper and could spit fire.

  In the middle of the backyard.

  Four huge stone tablets were lined up in a row, covered with thick red cloth, and surrounded by a circle of fences, with four vigorous characters "Do not climb over" written on them.

  Lin Yi directly crossed over the fence and climbed in. Shopkeeper Jin laughed but did not stop him.

  When several young masters saw this, they followed suit. However, Shopkeeper Jin stood in front of them with a serious face.

  "Are you blind? Don't you see the sign? Please don't climb over."

  "Shopkeeper, don't even mention climbing over. He has torn off the red cloth and is still touching it." Several young masters saw Lin Yi touching the stone tablet with his hands, and the imbalance in their hearts suddenly emerged.

  "Haha, if you are also from the Shen Mansion, you can naturally go in and touch it." Shopkeeper Jin smiled. He did not mention Lin Yi's status as a servant, but only said the word Shen Mansion. It was not that Shopkeeper Jin deliberately concealed it, but that he did not regard Lin Yi as a servant at all in his heart.

  The faces of several young masters of the "Shen Mansion" turned pale. They looked at each other. They all understood the meaning of these two words in Dajing. Even if they were very curious, they had no face to stay and fled.

  Lin Yi, who was touching the stone tablet, glanced at several young masters who left quickly and ignored them.

  His attention was completely attracted by the three stone tablets in front of him. He touched them left and right, and Lin Yi seemed very happy.

  The material is good, hard and solid.

  This is Lin Yi's initial judgment. As for the next step

  When Lin Yi's eyes carefully examined the earth book carved on the stone tablet, he directly scolded Manager Jin in his heart.

  This is the Earth Book. How can I understand this thing?

  Well, the words on it are probably the divine text.

  In the Shen Mansion, Lin Yi had also seen the divine text, but he had always seen it from a distance. This was the first time he had seen it up close. The stone tablet so close at hand was densely packed with figures of different sizes, like tadpoles.

  It was really complicated.

  Lin Yi thought he was extremely smart, but he was also a little dazzled by these figures. If he had to memorize them by rote without understanding them at all, he didn't know how many years and months he would have to memorize them, and how many brain cells would die.

  The biggest problem is that you can't understand it at all. You don't know what it is written at all.

  "Lin Yi, you may not understand it because you haven't learned the divine text. I have a book that specifically translates the divine text. You can refer to it." Shopkeeper Jin saw Lin Yi's confused face and naturally guessed what Lin Yi was thinking.

  "If you have a translated book, bring it out earlier. You are a businessman, do you know how to be honest? As a punishment for your dishonesty, this book is confiscated." Lin Yi took the Divine Text Translation Mirror from the shopkeeper and flipped through it.

  "Hehe" Looking at the Divine Text Translation Mirror snatched away by Lin Yi, Shopkeeper Jin felt a pain in his heart. This is a thread-bound ancient book, worth five taels of silver, and it was just thrown away like this. You are getting more and more shameless. However, I like this about you. Forget it, just treat it as an investment. After thinking about it, the shopkeeper also patiently explained to Lin Yi: "Our Great Chu Dynasty is not the strongest in national strength, so the Divine Text Translation has only about a hundred words that have been made public so far."

  As Shopkeeper Jin said, there are really only a hundred words

  The Divine Text Translation Mirror in his hand has two Divine Texts on each page, and there are notes and translations next to it. In less than a quarter of an hour, Lin Yi finished reading it.

  "Only a hundred words" Lin Yi was obviously not satisfied. If this were a language test on Earth, with 100 characters, it would probably be at the level of a first-grade primary school student.

  "You can see that this divine text is too complicated. It is not so easy to translate it. Every country preserves the translation of divine text as the foundation of the country. Some powerful divine texts will not be published casually. These 100 characters are considered the divine texts commonly used by the seven major countries. The meaning is the most simple, so they are written into books and distributed to the people."

  "Is that so?" Lin Yi thought about it and understood. According to the definition of this world, every divine text has the opportunity to mobilize the power of heaven and earth. Mastering a new divine text is equivalent to mastering more powerful power. Although there is an alliance between the seven major countries, it is impossible for them to be selfless enough to make all of them public.

  After understanding this, Lin Yi stopped talking and began to compare the divine text translation Tongjian and tried to read the earth book on the stone tablet silently.

  However, this earth book is too complicated. There are almost hundreds of divine texts engraved on each of the three stone tablets, and each divine text is composed of extremely complex graphics. Even if he read it in comparison with the divine text translation, Lin Yi only understood the general meaning.

  One of them seems to be written to use the power of heaven and earth to move rocks, and then fall in a certain posture, and what kind of power will be generated after falling. There is also a description of rocks in it.

  It turns out that the so-called earth book is a paragraph of text description. This paragraph of text description is engraved on some objects. As long as the description of this paragraph of text is reasonable and in line with the way of heaven and earth, then this object can also generate the power described in the text, and the power of this earth book should be to move rocks.

  Thinking of this, Lin Yi also thought of the whip in Shen Feixue's hand.

  That thing can directly produce purple flames, and it is estimated that it is also engraved with divine texts. It's just that because of Shen Feixue's flamboyant personality, he has been holding the whip to "do evil", so the divine text on the whip is probably covered by the purple flame.

  However, no matter how Lin Yi looked at it, he felt that the description of scenes and rocks in this earth book was quite good. This thing can be called an earth book.

  Lin Yi did not comment on this.

  Dare to write more deeply?

  After all, Lin Yi is also a part-time writer of novels with millions of words. Not to mention how good his writing is, he can use idioms, sentence formation, personification, metaphor, parallelism, prose, argumentative essays, and narrative essays freely.

  It seems that people in this world spend more energy on studying divine texts, and do not study literary value too much. But if divine texts are also a kind of text, then

  Lin Yi knows very well that the real power of text does not lie in the number of words, but in the deep meaning contained in the combination of words.

  Just like writing an essay, you may write more than 2,000 words in one breath, and fill up the test paper, but you may not get a higher score than others who write 800 words.

  For example, a poem can have a profound meaning, and a song can contain the murderous intentions of millions of soldiers, but this world does not seem to have any poems, let alone the Four Great Classics and the Four Books and Five Classics

  Lin Yi thought with disdain.

  Wait, something seems wrong
