Chapter 134: Making Money
Walking down from the inn, Jiang Hao went to the backyard and looked around.
The place wasn’t small and indeed seed suitable for growing spiritual herbs, but the soil was poor.
He would need to buy so good soil or perhaps spiritual liquid.
However, there was a back door that seed to be frequently used, which could be a bit of trouble.
Hong Yuye wouldn’t like people wandering around in front of her.
The rabbit was the best proof; so far, it had seen Hong Yuye.
Not only that, but every ti the rabbit had to endure a huge attack.
Did it think that its friends from the road were not giving it face?
After inspecting the yard, Jiang Hao approached the counter.
“Is the backyard available for use?”
“The backyard?”
The innkeeper looked at Jiang Hao, hesitant. “If the immortal wishes to use it, we can clear it out.”
“I will need it to be off-limits to others during my use,” Jiang Hao stated.
“That’s no problem for our inn. We can lock the back door and bring things in through the front.” The innkeeper glanced at the people upstairs, troubled.
“Our inn is just an ordinary inn.”
Jiang Hao understood what he ant; the inn was ordinary, but the guests seed to be anything but ordinary.
They had no way to restrict the other guests.
“You don’t need to worry about those people. I will talk to them.”
Jiang Hao reassured the innkeeper, noticing his concern, and continued, “How much would it cost to use the backyard?”
The innkeeper wanted to say it was free, but before he could, Jiang Hao seriously insisted on paying.
“One tael per day,” the innkeeper said, forced to set a price.
Jiang Hao paid three taels of silver and said.
“I’ll rent it for three days. If I don’t need it, I’ll let you know in advance. Please help clean it up today.”
After the innkeeper agreed, Jiang Hao added.
“If soone from upstairs objects, we can discuss it when I return.”
“Alright.”
The innkeeper was grateful for Jiang Hao’s understanding.
Afterward, Jiang Hao left the inn.
So ti later, three people ca down from upstairs.
They noticed soone cleaning the backyard and were curious, as if the yard was being specifically cleared for sothing.
“What’s going on?” Bai Qiong asked the innkeeper.
Upon their inquiry, the innkeeper grew nervous.
“The guest from room number five wants to rent the backyard.”
“Oh?” Fang Jin was sowhat surprised.
Room number five was right next to theirs. Or to put it another way, so far, only five people were staying in the rooms above.
“Did they say what they’re going to use the backyard for?” he asked.
“I didn’t dare to ask,” the innkeeper replied with a nervous smile.
“Let ask you sothing,” Fairy Lan said, her face full of curiosity.
“You were here when soone took action, right?”
The innkeeper hesitated, but after Fairy Lan assured him there would be no trouble, he spoke softly, “Yes.”
“I won’t ask about anything else, just what was the situation with the Chen family’s people when they faced that person? What kind of spells did the other party use?” Fairy Lan was very curious.
Fang Jin and the others didn’t say much.
They were also sowhat curious.
So far, they didn’t know what level of cultivation the person who had taken action had.
“That immortal used a saber and exchanged a few blows with the Chen family’s immortal. Then he injured the Chen family’s immortal with a single strike,” the innkeeper recounted the scene vividly.
“How many moves?”
Fairy Lan imagined the scenario and then said,
“If it were , facing a Foundation Establishnt completion stage, one Earth Heart Thunder could cause serious injury. A Palm Heart Thunder could do the sa. That person actually took several moves, so it seems he is either a new Golden Core or a very ordinary Golden Core cultivator.”
Fang Jin smiled and said, “Junior Sister’s guess is correct, but it’s still best not to underestimate others.”
He then approached the innkeeper and asked, “Did that person cause any damage to the inn? Did he pay for renting the backyard?”
“There was no damage to the inn, and he paid the silver,” the innkeeper replied.
After that, Fang Jin turned and left.
Fairy Lan was puzzled. Bai Qiong sighed and said, “That person ca to stay at the inn, not to cause trouble. If it were your Earth Heart Thunder, what do you think the inn would look like?”
With that, she also left.
Fairy Lan imagined that it could create a hole in the inn.
She then thought about using a spiritual sword, which should also be able to seriously injure Chen Quan without damaging the inn.
Even if she underestimated the other party, he couldn’t be much stronger than her.
......
West of the city.
Jiang Hao landed in front of a forest.
After observing for a bit, he made his way inside, and upon entering, he found himself in an ordinary marketplace.
The district was filled with nurous stalls, and so people were wandering around aimlessly.
Unlike the outside world, there wasn’t a single ordinary person here.
However, most of them had relatively low cultivation levels; Qi Refining was the norm, Foundation Establishnt was rare, and there wasn’t a single Golden Core.
Jiang Hao noticed that his own Foundation Establishnt cultivation level was considered top-notch in this place.
Weakness equated to poverty. Forget about buying good items; he couldn’t even sell his own possessions.
Jiang Hao realized there was an insurmountable gap between large sects and small ones.
As a talisman maker, even if he made many Hundred Thousand Swords Talismans, he might not be able to sell them all.
Not to ntion the Thousand Li Teleportation Talisman, whose materials were hard to co by.
Later, Jiang Hao ca inside and found so decent lofts, which were likely places where good items were traded.
To understand the prices, he asked around.
He found that the prices here were lower than at the Tianyin Sect.
For a Healing Talisman, it was only twenty-seven, but there were few sellers.
Afterward, he went to a stall and laid out his items.
“Young brother, setting up a stall requires spirit stones, you can’t just set up anywhere. Soone will co to collect the fee,” a middle-aged man kindly reminded Jiang Hao, who noticed the man had a late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivation.
Although concealed, he was a rare strong presence.
“Thank you for the reminder,” Jiang Hao nodded.
He then displayed Foundation Establishnt cultivation pills, so talismans, and spirit swords.
He also took out Swift Travel Talismans that he hadn’t been able to sell before, hoping to make a sale.
“Concentration Talisman? Ten Thousand Swords Talisman? Healing Talisman? And Hundred Thousand Swords Talisman?”
The middle-aged man was astonished, then politely asked, “Young brother, how much for the Healing Talisman?”
“Twenty-six,” Jiang Hao replied.
“I’ll take five,” the middle-aged man imdiately said.
One less than the market price ant he could make a profit by reselling.
“And the spirit swords?” the man asked.
“Seven spirit stones,” Jiang Hao answered.
The going rate here was eight to twelve stones.
“How many do you have?”
“How many do you want?”
Without another word, Jiang Hao handed over ten swords.
He had plenty of items.
The middle-aged man was stunned.
Where did this wealthy young master co from?
Could he have stolen these items from his family to sell?
“I am Shi Xin, and you are?” Shi Xin politely asked Jiang Hao.
“Jiang Haotian,” Jiang Hao replied politely.
He observed that although Shi Xin was dressed plainly, his vital energy was abundant, and his cultivation was active.
It was the sign of soone on the rise, with the potential to reach Golden Core.
After a mont’s hesitation, he softly asked, “Does Brother Shi plan to attempt reaching Golden Core?”
This question took Shi Xin by surprise.
