Notable Transactions
- Zhou Changwang receives his first documented Low-Grade Spirit Stone as advance payment from Xu Fugui for clearing spirit insects over three days; he is also permitted to keep the insects he kills. 9
- He later uses a Low-Grade Spirit Stone to discreetly secure Steward Chen's use of an honest scale rather than a rigged “Little Ghost Scale” during the Spirit Plant Hall's harvest assessment. 43
- After buying 3,150 Spirit Convergence Grass seeds and 3,000 jin of beast manure, Zhou is left with only 25 Low-Grade Spirit Stones. 65
- His sale of talismans eventually brings his savings to 10,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which he considers a colossal fortune. 108
- Zhou spends nearly all of his available funds at auction to acquire the Stellar-Origin Spirit Fruit Seed, treating improved Spirit Root aptitude as more valuable than retaining currency. 143
- In later years, Five-Peak Mountain Spirit Land's rent, businesses, and Merit System generate more than 20 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones annually. 368
Trivia
- Low-Grade Spirit Stones are treated as consumables: their physical mass visibly decreases as their contained qi is used. 9
- The Spirit Plant Hall's lease terms ensure it profits even when a spirit farmer suffers a poor harvest, forcing tenants to bear shortages and losses in Low-Grade Spirit Stones. 1
- Although cultivation resources can cost enormous sums, Zhou repeatedly notes that cultivators can never possess too many Spirit Stones because food, pills, spells, artifacts, spirit beasts, rent, and cultivation facilities all require them. 20 70
