After returning to Fallen Cloud City.
Qin Ming continued planting spirit mushrooms, preparing to do further business with the Wood Crystal Clan and use it to establish ties with them.
Cold gave way to heat, winter to spring.
After several dealings with them, Qin Ming discovered that the Wood Crystal Clan cultivators' constitutions and cultivation methods differed somewhat from those of the human race.
For instance, the "Wood Spirit Art" cultivated by the green-robed girl Qin Ming had seen before seemed to be a method of refining natural essences for one's own use.
However, cultivating this art required certain specific spirit mushrooms for that Red Willow to devour and advance.
Several months later.
Xu Han and his son came to the shop again to call on Qin Ming. Their Storage Bags were stuffed to bursting as they headed to the Wood Crystal Clan's small marketplace for trade.
During this period.
While planting Ink Spirit Mushrooms, Qin Ming casually offered the father and son some guidance.
This caused their spirit mushroom yield to multiply greatly, and made the Xu father and son regard "Old Black Qin" in an entirely new light.
Over this period, the two had earned a fortune buying and selling spirit mushrooms.
Among the minor Qi Refining cultivators of Fallen Cloud City, they could be considered fairly wealthy.

"Quickly, please come in!"
After exchanging pleasantries.
They entered the pavilion once more to conduct their trade.
This time, they had brought several times more spirit mushrooms than before—several hundred catties in all.
This made Elder Wu grin from ear
