The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 120 - 89 Guest-Starring as the Money Scattering Chil

The pungent sll of blood here is truly suffocating, almost nauseating, fortunately, demon corpses decompose less easily than ordinary wild animal corpses. Ning Xiaoxian’s increasingly sensitive sense of sll was already protesting, it’s a wonder how Changtian could still tolerate this odor, his five senses are a hundred tis more sensitive than hers. Little did she know, this cunning fellow had long sealed off his own sense of sll, only she continued to foolishly sniff incessantly.

Once there was no one around, she placed her hand on the demon corpse and softly commanded, "Collect." The demon corpses filling the corner instantly vanished. Over the next few days, more demon corpses would continuously be piled here, then entering her God Demon Prison, becoming nutrients for the soil. Originally, the prison confined only three or four demons and a Bear Demon corpse, which allowed dozens of ginseng to grow into several hundred years old. Now, with so many demon corpses of different cultivations and species thrown into the soil’s mouth, how much energy could it absorb and thus, how many Heavenly Talent and Earthly Treasure could it produce? Ning Xiaoxian was quite looking forward to it.

Changtian was also satisfied and praised her, "Girl, well done." This little girl had exhausted all the Spiritual Power of the soil the other day, producing a large batch of herbs. He had been worried about subsequent power shortage, but little did he know she had already planned this, actually managing to have all rchant teams in Yan City contribute their demon corpses to her!

Many hands make light work, she’s just a mortal, even if she were a cultivator, how many demons could she alone overthrow? Only the rchant teams in Yan City, totaling tens of thousands of mbers, could capture so many prey.

However, the cost was equally enormous. She left the warehouse with a smile and settled the accounts for these demon corpses with the clerk from the Cloud Tiger Trading Team. Although these were leftover scraps after the Artifact Refiners had removed the valuable parts, it had still gobbled up over 80,000 taels of her silver.

She played the role of a money scattering child. The silver notes she just earned hadn’t even ward up when more than half of it flew out again—it’s a lie to say as a small miser she didn’t feel the pinch. But isn’t money ant to be spent? Being able to buy so many demon corpses with mortal silver was already a huge win for her, one shouldn’t be too greedy!

The clerk was an acquaintance. She patted his shoulder, instructing him to continue collecting demon corpses, then turned around to leave. Today, she had another important place to go, that is the "mutual market" Changtian Yuan had ntioned before.

The mutual market is also one of Yan City Lord’s innovations. If the tea house district is the storage and wholesale market for major logistics, then by definition, the mutual market is a personal trading place set up by the officials of Yan City, located right next to the tea house district, occupying about half the area of the tea house district. Considering that it’s just a venue for personal trading, the area designated for the mutual market is already astonishingly large.

Want to enter? Just pay two taels of silver for an entrance ticket, and you can go in and browse various types of stall goods. If you want to set up a stall here, you have to pay an additional seven taels of silver for the stall fee.

The stall fee is sincerely not cheap. If you include the entrance fee, the cost of setting up a stall here is almost equivalent to thousands of RMB. However, once she entered the mutual market, she saw a teeming crowd, and the stalls on the ground were packed tightly next to each other, leaving little space empty. It appears that this place is thriving in both supply and demand, Yan City must be making a handso profit just from the entrance and stall fees, not to ntion the governnt also takes a halv of the trading tax from each transaction?

Yet, she wasn’t in a hurry to browse the stalls or set one up herself, but instead, she went to the mutual market’s official appraisal office and handed over the items she had.

This thod was suggested by the whistle. Since the establishnt of the mutual market, there had been two incidents; one, a buyer was dissatisfied with a seller demanding an exorbitant price, and after the transaction ended, swords were drawn. Another, soone splurged a fortune, attracting the envy of petty thieves, who awaited outside the mutual market to attack him, leading to a bloody and fatal outco... Thus, Yan City learned from these lessons and specially created an official recomndation area within the mutual market.

Any treasures deed of astonishing value, inconvenient for private transactions, sellers can bring them to the official recomndation area for preliminary appraisal. If confird as highly valuable, they can be displayed and sold in the recomndation area—of course, the official commission is higher, reaching fifteen percent of the total price, not including the appraisal fee. However, the safety factor is exponentially higher, hence the recomndation area is also very popular. This thod is sowhat similar to the auction houses in Huaxia, but also distinctly different.

Ning Xiaoxian also had such a treasure—in the previous night, Changtian finally took action personally and refined a batch of elixirs. Prior to this, any type of dicine was rely for Ning Xiaoxian’s practice, but the high-quality dicine to be sold in the mutual market had to be refined by him personally.

It’s obvious when an expert makes a move. How would Changtian refine elixirs like her using a twig to ignite a mortal fire? He summoned his own Innate True Fire—the Mysterious Netherworld Divine Fire. It was Ning Xiaoxian’s first ti seeing this reportedly terrifying fla. However, it didn’t look scary at all; the fla was pale and noiseless, floating in Changtian’s palm like a quietly blooming white lotus, tempting her to reach out and touch.

"Wow, it’s so beautiful!" Are the more vicious creatures indeed endowed with more beautiful appearances?

"Touch it, it’s alright." Changtian apparently saw through her thoughts, flicked his finger, and the Divine Fire drifted towards her. She reached out to touch it, and the white lotus trembled slightly. There wasn’t the anticipated scorching sensation, rather it felt like soaking in warm water.

"It... isn’t hot?" She initially thought Changtian was maliciously preparing to burn her, and she was braced for it.

"What an ungrateful guy." He himself was unaware that his tone contained a hint of indulgence, "At that ti when you were struck by Shi Jishan in the left shoulder, I treated your wound, and it also played a part."
