Ye Qian knew that considering he was not there for 5 years many things might have changed and he won't be able to do a proper job and have adequate earning to keep Mengmeng and Little Qiqi happy.
So he wanted to do what he had been doing since time eternal.
He also knew while he could Concoct Pills they were a bit too much for people and the availability of the herbs was also nonexistent and he thought of the scarcity of Spirit Energy which he had seen so far.
'I am at Nascent Soul Mid-stage now after pouring so much Spirit Energy while removing the Gu from Mengmeng's head.' As he thought of the Gu that was in Yuan Meng's head his eyes turned furious.
'You better live good while you have time, I will soon come to you, you dare to harm my Mengmeng.'
A few moments later he cooled down and entered the Charm Shop.
The shop was old as most of the things were covered in dust, and the furniture also looked like it was about to fell on someone's head.
As Ye Qian entered the shop a middle-aged man at the counter walked to him while greeting and said.
"Good Morning Sir what would you like to have?" The man smile as if he was about to get free money.
Ye Qian looked around and asked, "I want some charm papers, Weasel hairbrush, Cinnabar paint and ....."
Ye Qian enlisted a few things and said to the man.
As the charms were mostly made from Spiritual Beast Skin and Blood, on Earth there was no way he could find one so he had to stick with Cinnabar Paint and some Charm papers.
He would then use some old herbs and use some chicken blood to inscribe the charms on the paper.
"Yes, Sir wait for a few minutes I will get the things that you asked for." The man said but he was laughing in his heart.
'What a fool there is no such thing as charms, and they never work, but because of these fools my business is still going and I earn some money hehe.'
A few minutes later the man placed the things at the table in front of Ye Qian and named each one of them.
Ye Qian nodded after seeing the things and looked at them.
While the things were old and had dust in them they were still usable and he could turn them into some usable charms.
Luckily he found the best quality Yellow paper for charm making and a few herbs as well.
He saw and calculated the materials and assumed 'There are enough materials for me to make about 15 Palm-sized charms, so it might work.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe then looked at the owner and asked.
"How much is all this for?"
Sir the total is around 43 Yuan." The man paused while looking at Ye Qian.
Ye Qian's face fell as he heard the number as he only had 40 Yuans in his pocket now.
Seeing Ye Qian's face fell after hearing the amount the owner snickered and laughed in his heart 'This is just a marketing strategy boy.'
"But since you have got so many things from me just give me 40 Yuans." The owner smiled and said.
"Oh, thanks a lot for the discount." Ye Qian thanked him as he packed the things for Ye Qian.
"Oh, you are welcome." The owner said and handed the bag to Ye Qian and smiled.
Ye Qian took the wallet from his pocket and handed the remaining 40 Yuans which were only left.
Ye Qian turned and opened the door and left.
The Owner called out "Come Again."
'Idiot the things that I sold you were not even worth 20 Yuans. Hehe.'
The Man smiled and went to watch his football match on the TV.

Meanwhile, Ye Qian walked quickly to the market he went to yesterday and asked the old man who sold him meat.
"Hey old man." Ye Qian went to him and greeted him.
Seeing Ye Qian the Old mand smiled and called out.
"Hey Young boy, how was the soup yesterday." The old man asked ad he welcomed him.
"It was very nice. Um, I need your help with something here." Ye Qian said as he hesitated.
"Why hesitate boy just say it I will help you." The old mand said as he patted Ye Qian's shoulder and said.
"I need some Rooster Blood." Ye Qian said as he looked around the shop.
"En, that thing usually we throw it, why do you need something like that." The old man thought.
"But since you want it I will give it to you." The old man said as he entered where the meat was usually cut.
He came in a few minutes and said "It's from the fresh rooster that was cut."
Then he passed the bag containing the rooster blood to Ye Qian and went to the counter to handle things.
"Thanks, old man I will come in the evening, to buy some meat." Ye Qian said as he opened the door and walked out of the shop.
"Sure I will make sure to prepare a fresh for you boy." The old man smiled and waved at Ye Qian seeing him walking out.
'Hmm, why would someone need blood.' The old man thought as he again went to his usual work.
"Oh yes Xiao He, give this man Lamb Chops" The old man shouted at Xiao He who was packing the meat on the side.

After about 15 minutes Ye Qian opened the door of his house.
'Hmm, it's so lonely without anyone, though I met them just now.' Ye Qian thought as a smile appeared on his face.
He quickly went to a spare room and placed the things needed for making the charms on the floor and went to freshen up.
As he came out of the bathroom be looked at the wall clock and sighed.
"It's nearly 12 now. In two hours I have to make the charms, then go to Qiqi's school."
"Let's make the charms quickly and then again I need to wash myself to get rid of the smell."
He wore his old boxers which were still kept and didn't look like they were kept there for years.
"Mengmeng really thought I will come back, she even washed my clothes."
"Haih Mengmeng how am I going to pay your debt."
He wore only boxers and went to the room where he left the materials.

As he entered the room he sat on the ground cross-legged.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe then moved all the things from the bag and arranged them.
He poured the Rooster blood in a stone mortar, while putting the dry herbs and ground them.
Soon after a paste was made, he added the Cinnabar Paint in the paste and mixed it again.
A while later a thick red coloured liquid was made.
Ye Qian kept the mortar and pestle aside and took the Yellow Paper in his hand and started to cut it in adequate sizes as he mumbles some spells.
Soon after about 20 minutes, he cut 15 pieces of charm papers and arranged them properly.
He properly arranged 3 papers in a row and made 4 groups which he respective grouped as Ghost Repelling, Spirit Cleansing, Protection and Fire Ball Charms.
While for the remaining 3, he added one to each except for the Ghost Repelling one.
After arranging he sat straight and took the Weasel hairbrush and dipped it in the blood and cinnabar and herb paste and started writing on the Yellow Paper Charms, soon the charms had a different feeling to it if one were to hold them.
There were also various patterns on different types of charms that he made.
He quickly looked at the charms and nodded.
Though the materials he got were not that much good, he was still the Master in charm making.
But unfortunately, the charms he made were only so so.
Still, they were a treasure if the people really got to know the function of these charms.
He still managed to make 15 charms without any waste even though he had not made any charms for the last about 300 years which surprised him a lot.
It didn't take him a lot of time to make these fifteen charms and there was no Spirit Energy used so it was quite conservative considering that there was no source of spirit energy he had found yet.
He stood up after keeping arranging the charms in the proper group and keeping them on the table nearby then he started to clean the mess that he had created.
Though he didn't waste anything while grinding and stroking the runes on the charms, there were a few drops of blood that fell on the floor and they were started to smell.
While you might be thinking that if the blood was smelling then how would people buy these charms.
It was that as he was stroking while writing the runes on the Yellow Paper he used to chant spells which would light the strokes that he made on the paper and then the paper would absorb the paint and the smell would never be there as if it was not made of blood but of flowers.
