Ma Feifei Sets Up a Street Stall

First floor of Wantong Trading Market.

Ma Feifei asked Zhao Xiaodao to help him rent a stall, abandoning the Bookstore altogether. He carried the unknown spirit beast pelt given to him by the trading market to the rented stall and began his plan to earn Spirit Crystal.

Because his face was so famous, Ma Feifei had no choice but to change his appearance. Fortunately, although the Spiritual Power in his body was transformed into the Power of Faith, Ma Feifei's cultivation level had actually reached the Spirit King Stage Three realm, which was enough for him to change his appearance.

"Hey buddy, all new stalls here?" He was setting up his stall when the stall owner next door seemed quite friendly and greeted him.

Ma Feifei nodded and said, "Yes, it's newly rented."

"What are you selling? You're not selling medicine too, are you?" the stall owner next door asked with some concern. His stall sold medicine for treating injuries, and if Ma Feifei sold the same products next to him, there would inevitably be some competition.

Actually, Ma Feifei didn't have much to sell. After setting everything up, Ma Feifei took out special numbers from his spatial bag and placed them on the ground, saying, "I'll just sell some trinkets, not medicine, don't worry, brother."

The stall owner next door breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when he subconsciously glanced at what Ma Feifei had taken out. He was immediately taken aback and exclaimed, "Is this the Mysterious Bookstore's special number?"

Ma Feifei chuckled, arranged the five special numbers, stood up, cupped Ma Feifei hands in a megaphone shape, and shouted, "Look, take a look! Special numbers on urgent sale! Limited quantity, first come, first served!"

Using Spiritual Power to shout is prohibited in the trading market, but using one's own voice to shout a few words is allowed.

"Dude! Stop yelling! Are you out of your mind?!" The stall owner next door seemed a bit anxious, waving and shouting at Ma Feifei.

Ma Feifei was taken aback, turned to look at the other person, and asked in confusion, "What? Are touting no longer allowed?"

The stall owner next door shook his head and said in a low voice, "There's nothing wrong with you shouting like that, but you can't sell this stuff!"

"Why?" Ma Feifei was even more puzzled. These were the hottest numbers on the market right now, and everyone else could sell them, so why couldn't he?

The stall owner next door said earnestly, "Dude! Listen to me, don't do this kind of thing. I'm doing this for your own good!"

At this point, the stall owner next door sighed, pointed to Ma Feifei's location, and continued, "Before you, brother, the stall owner next door was selling these numbers, just like you. It was a great experience; he sold over a hundred numbers and made a lot of money. But what happened? Before he even left the market, someone discovered the numbers were fake. The market punished him, not only refunding all his money but also permanently banning him from setting up a stall there."

"This is still the official Punishment. Those buyers went even further, blocking the person's way to hunt spirit beasts in the Nine Heavens Mountain, and in the end, they were beaten to death by a group of people!"

Ma Feifei was speechless after hearing this. So, they thought he was selling counterfeit goods!

"Don't worry, brother, my stuff is genuine, no fakes," Ma Feifei replied with a smile. This brother was quite kind-hearted.

"Sigh, why won't you listen?" The stall owner next door just wouldn't believe that Ma Feifei's special number was real, shaking his head and sighing.

"Hey, someone's actually selling special numbers here?" Ma Feifei's Growl attracted a lot of people to stop and watch. When they saw that Ma Feifei's stall was selling special numbers, they couldn't help but say it with a teasing tone.

"Another one who's not afraid of death," a customer laughed.

"Fortune favors the bold! After all, lottery numbers are so expensive these days. Maybe if you take a gamble, you'll become rich overnight."

The exclusive phone number for that day was already being sold for over 100,000 Spirit Crystal on the market. For ordinary cultivators, this was an absolute fortune, and even for cultivators at the Spirit King level, it was a considerable sum. With such huge profits, many cultivators were willing to walk a tightrope, even at the risk of their lives.

Ma Feifei listened without getting annoyed and explained, "Don't worry, everyone, these numbers are all real and valid."

A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd; no one believed Ma Feifei was telling the truth.

Exclusive phone numbers are extremely rare these days, with most being controlled by merchants or wealthy individuals. Very few actually circulate in the market. Especially these special numbers; since the Wantong Trading Market partnered with Mysterious Bookstore to create them, only ten have been issued so far. Yet Ma Feifei's stall has five! Who would believe that's real?

"How much does this special number cost?" a customer asked.

"One ticket costs 100,000 Spirit Crystal, and a 20% discount is offered for a pack of five!" Ma Feifei said. Before setting up his stall, he had also checked the current prices of the numbers. The price of a day-exclusive number was about 100,000 Spirit Crystal. The special number was actually no different from the day-exclusive number, except that the special number had a certain advantage in terms of time. It could be used any day, but the exclusive number could only be used on the specified date.

However, Ma Feifei didn't intend to sell the special number too expensively. Firstly, 100,000 Spirit Crystal was already close to the top price on the market, and that price was driven up by merchants. There were still few people willing to spend that much money. If Ma Feifei raised the price further, even if his number was genuine, he might not be able to sell it. Secondly, Ma Feifei only wanted to earn some Spirit Crystal to copy the book. Time was tight, and if Yun Qingyang found out he was setting up a stall here, he might have to give her half, which would be a huge loss.

"The price is acceptable!" After hearing Ma Feifei's price, everyone was quite satisfied, but still no one bought it. Everyone seemed to be convinced that Ma Feifei's special number was fake.

"I'll take them all." Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd, and the surroundings fell silent as everyone turned to look at the man who had spoken.

He was an elderly man, quite frail, who walked with a hunched back. His face was very serious, and his eyes were cloudy and unfocused.

The old man slowly walked to the stall, handed Ma Feifei a spatial bag, and said, "Here are 400,000 Spirit Crystal. Please check them."

Ma Feifei opened the spatial bag and saw that it contained exactly 400,000 yuan. He nodded, bent down, picked up five special numbers, and handed them over.

The old man took the special number, didn't even glance at it, and turned to leave.

Ma Feifei was a little puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Sir, won't you check if it's genuine?"

He left without even glancing at it. This was a deal worth 400,000 Spirit Crystal! 400,000 is no small sum. You have to understand that Zhang Wu, the deputy mayor of Dubian Town and an Earl, was willing to do such a despicable thing for 200,000 Spirit Crystal. You can imagine how important hundreds of thousands of Spirit Crystal are.

Upon hearing Ma Feifei's question, the old man paused, then, without turning his head, replied, "I can still distinguish the anti-counterfeiting mark of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce."

"May I ask your surname, sir?" Ma Feifei asked curiously. When creating this unique number, Ma Feifei had worried that once it circulated in the market, many counterfeit numbers would appear. However, Gongsun Qiong seemed very confident and told Ma Feifei that Wantong Chamber of Commerce had a unique anti-counterfeiting mark since ancient times. This anti-counterfeiting mark had been used in Wantong Chamber of Commerce for thousands of years and had never been cracked, making it very secure.

The reason it has never been cracked is that most people cannot find this anti-counterfeiting mark, and even if a small number of people do find it, they cannot crack it.

This anti-counterfeiting mark was created by the president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce thousands of years ago. This president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce was a formation master, the most powerful formation master on the Azure Dragon Continent in that era, without exception!

This elderly person was able to spot the anti-counterfeiting features in the serial number, clearly indicating they were no ordinary person.

"Jiang Yizhou."

After saying this, the old man slowly walked away and disappeared into the crowd.
