Happy Cooperation, Buy, Buy, Buy!
Magu Poison Pill, Sanling Poison Pill, Shuaizang Poison Pill, mark down ten bottles, making thirty pills in total...
One set of poison pills is priced at one Spirit Stone.
Additionally, there are other low-tier spirit materials, such as Huangyan Stone, Basalt, Spirit Plant Old Root, Beast Blood Spirit Liquid, Morning Light Spirit Dew...
"All in one, a total of one hundred seventy-eight spirit materials..."
"Senior Liu, the above are all the items for sale."
As the voice fell--
Liu Ruyan weighed the prices in her heart.
Though these things were not high in grade, they were in huge quantities...
Especially the pills and auxiliary spirit materials.
Their values varied from high to low, making them difficult to measure, and they often fetched quite a bit of a premium; pricing them too low was inappropriate, while pricing them too high compressed the profit margins...
However-looking at this posture.
Presumably this Qin Family ought to have its own cultivated medicinal garden. If she could be on good terms with them, in the long run it would hold a hundred advantages without a single harm...
Moreover, the lineage had been established for a short time and always lacked various foundational inheritances...
Releasing the prices appropriately was indeed not out of the question.
Using the Myriad Treasures Pavilion's money to pave her own connections, why wouldn't she be glad to do it?
"For the spirit medicine category, a total of nine Spirit Stones plus a little over five tenths. This concubine will round it up, calculating it by the higher end, and mark it as ten Spirit Stones."
"For the spirit material category, your lineage's Tea Smoke and Calm-Spirit Incense are rare goods after all."
"Altogether twenty Spirit Stones plus a little over three tenths, so we'll count it as twenty Spirit Stones."
"As for the pill category, there are quite a few varieties, plus many auxiliary cultivation items, making the value rather high. Rounding everything out to make an even forty Spirit Stones..."
"Plus various other items of differing spirit material values... we'll count it as eight Spirit Stones."
"Total: seventy-eight Spirit Stones!"
"But presumably, Senior also knows the rules. First-Tier Low-Grade spirit materials are not settled with Spirit Stones, but since Senior made a trip here..."
"It is also a long and extremely inconvenient journey."
"This concubine does happen to have a first-tier spirit plant inheritance here. If Senior is willing..."
"Discounted by thirty Spirit Stones, Senior can take it away."
Upon this--
Qin Lu had no objections. Being able to sell at this price had already reached his psychological expectations...
If he sold them himself, it would definitely be more than this.
Yet time was limited, and for a moment nobody could swallow this batch of inventory, otherwise he wouldn't have sold them off dirt-cheap like this...
Trading a massive amount of low-tier spirit materials for a spirit plant inheritance.
It could not be considered a loss--
Qin Lu nodded. This trade was basically settled...
"Just as Fairy says..."
"However, may I ask if Fairy Ruyan sells items that assist with Qi Condensation?"
Hearing this--
Liu Ruyan was slightly startled, as if thinking of something. A trace of shrewdness flashed through her eyes, and the smile on her face grew even wider as she spoke with a charming expression:
"There is indeed one item."
"Name: Stone Pith. It is a Second-Tier Mid-Grade spirit material. It has the effect of condensing Qi and can also enter medicine, or be used for auxiliary cultivation, either way is fine."
"Because it originates from an earth-attribute treasure, its effects are peaceful and all-embracing, allowing it to be used alongside a multitude of spirit materials."
"If used alone, it can steadily increase the chance of breaking through realms by one tenth, and it is sold for thirty Spirit Stones."
Qin Lu nodded slightly.
He could accept this price.
At that time, with two portions of Qi Condensation items, plus all kinds of spirit material assistance...
He would have at least a four-tenths certainty of breaking through to Qi Condensation!
If he stepped into the Qi Condensation Realm, his ability to withstand risks would always be a bit greater. The True Martial Realm, though not mortal, was ultimately far too weak...
Even if a war broke out in the future--
With Qi Condensation Realm cultivation, he would at least not become front-line cannon fodder sent to die.
Coupled with his identity in the Hundred Arts Office, the room for maneuver within it would naturally also be a bit greater!
As such--
The primary purpose of this trip was achieved.
"Sorry for the trouble, Fairy. Fairy Ruyan can send someone to connect with this follower of mine to handle the handover of the goods."
"With Senior's approval, that is naturally best."
Liu Ruyan nodded in agreement. This was naturally fine.
With that said--
This transaction was finalized.
The rest was nothing more than spending a bit more time to take delivery of the goods...
During this period--
The two of them chatted about a great deal.
In the end, the two of them reached a certain consensus: the Qin Family was willing to engage in long-term cooperation with the Myriad Treasures Pavilion...
The connecting deacon was designated as Liu Ruyan.
Conversely, Liu Ruyan would, within the scope of her authority and power, provide conveniences for the Qin Family as much as possible, with both parties achieving a win-win coexistence...
As for Liu Ruyan, she gained a long-term customer.
She could obtain a one-tenth commission on every transaction amount!
With abundant resources, her cultivation would be high; with good performance, she could be promoted in the future. Who could say that one day she wouldn't become the branch pavilion master...
As for the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, it gained a long-term client. With money to be made, it didn't matter either way...
As for the Qin Family, it secured a stable export channel and could also learn a great deal of information and intelligence through Liu Ruyan...
It could also reap many benefits from it, such as price discounts or some inside scoops!
For example: In recent years, large batches of troops had already marched to pitch camp in Xuan Prefecture.
A large number of Qi Condensation Realm mentors from the Xiashang Dao Academy would successively return to various commanderies and prefectures within Xuan Prefecture to establish immortal lineages and set up Daoist orthodoxies!
All sorts of intelligence could not help but make Qin Lu feel a trace of urgency...
Nor did he know how long the current peace could be maintained.
A three-way win where everyone believed they had come out ahead-how joyful and pleasant!
The goods were tallied and inspected.
Qin Lu obtained eighteen Spirit Stones, one first-tier spirit plant inheritance, and one Stone Pith. With matters satisfactorily concluded, he left on his own...
Roughly calculating, he still had nearly thirty Spirit Stones on hand now.
He could still do quite a few things.
Afterwards--
Qin Lu bought fifty first-tier five-element talismans at a talisman shop, such as: Gold Sword Talisman, Cyan Shield Talisman, Water Arrow Talisman, Fireball Talisman, and Earth Armor Talisman.
The grades were all First-Tier Mid-Grade, and a single Spirit Stone could buy a set.
He spent a total of ten Spirit Stones.
Back then, the talismans used by the Han Family and the Wei Family were precisely these kinds of low-tier talismans. A single set of five-element talismans could hollow out their family fortunes...
For those above the seventh tier of the True Martial Realm--
Their true essence could leave the body and project outward, rendering low-tier talismans of little use to them, at most adding some trouble.
Yet against those below the seventh tier of the True Martial Realm, those were fatal killing moves!
Had Qin Lu not relied on his law artifact back then--
And borrowed it to stimulate Sword Qi, he would probably have died at the hands of the old ancestor of the Wei Family long ago!
Moreover, talismans--
Could be released without excessive consumption, making them most suitable to hand over to descendants for self-protection, or else to bestow upon loyal subordinates...
They helped to win people over to his side and strengthen his Qin Family's influence.
Aside from that--
Qin Lu also procured a Cyan Needle Law Artifact and a Round Shield Law Artifact for himself, spending ten Spirit Stones to strengthen his own offensive and defensive means...
Though their grades were not high, with this set of equipment, he was fully capable of walking sideways within the True Martial Realm!
Even upon reaching the Qi Condensation Realm, having a few law artifacts in hand was still better than fighting bare-handed!
Do not suppose that reaching the Qi Condensation Realm would make one wealthy.
Reality was precisely the opposite!
Upon reaching the Qi Condensation Realm, the overwhelming majority of cultivators still only used first-tier law artifacts.
Without a special skill or craft, wanting to buy a second-tier law artifact meant smashing pots and selling iron, with the worst second-tier law artifacts starting at a baseline of at least fifty Spirit Stones!
Furthermore, what one used might not necessarily be wielded smoothly...
