I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates Chapter 657 - 655: A New Approach to Buying Treasure Items

Due to the draw, Golden Core Foundation Establishnt cultivators were treated equally, and the Cultivation Level couldn’t determine the ownership of the Nine-Headed Dragon Map.

In the end, a Foundation Establishnt Perfect cultivator obtained the first purchasing right.

The mont he received the news, the cultivator was ecstatic. Under the focused gaze of the crowd, he imdiately took out four hundred Middle Grade Spiritual Stones from his storage bag.

"Taoist friend Wen, here are four hundred Middle Grade Spiritual Stones, please check them over."

Seeing the Foundation Establishnt Perfect cultivator successfully purchase the Nine-Headed Dragon Map, sighs of regret could be heard clearly within the crowd.

Wen Qian confird the count of the Spiritual Stones was correct and imdiately unlocked the prohibitions on the counter, handing over the Nine-Headed Dragon Map to the Foundation Establishnt Perfect cultivator.

The cultivator cald his excitent and approached a Core Formation middle-aged cultivator.

"Senior, I have not failed your trust and was fortunate to get the first purchasing right, securing this Nine-Headed Dragon Treasure for you."

"Well done."

The Core Formation middle-aged cultivator showed a look of approval.

"???"

"Fellow Jiang, what’s going on?"

In the room, the other cultivators were baffled, and another Core Formation True Person, sowhat acquainted with the middle-aged one, voiced the question.

"Nothing much, I was just worried that the chance to buy the Nine-Headed Dragon Map was slim, so I asked a few Foundation Establishnt juniors to queue early for the draw. I didn’t expect this thod to actually work. This junior managed to get it."

The middle-aged cultivator laughed heartily, clearly in a very good mood.

"Old rascal!"

"Too shaless!"

These thoughts simultaneously surfaced in the minds of the people, with two other Core Formation True Persons even cursing out loud.

Hiring people to queue for the draw was an excessively unfair move!

As for the Foundation Establishnt Perfect cultivator handing over the Nine-Headed Dragon Map to the Core Formation middle-aged man, it was sowhat understandable to the crowd. After all, a Foundation Establishnt cultivator possessing a Fifth Rank Treasure would attract much coveting, and this move could dispel many unfavorable thoughts towards him.

"Taoist friend Wen, isn’t this considered cheating?"

One of the Core Formation True Persons asked directly.

"It’s within the rules, so it’s not cheating."

Wen Qian mused for a mont, speaking slowly. The drawing and selling followed procedure, and how the cultivators dealt with the treasure afterward was none of his concern.

The crowd left in discontent, with many cultivators deep in thought.

The Core Formation middle-aged man’s tactic opened up new ideas for them; if the Grocery Store were to sell more Fifth Rank Treasure Items in the future, they could mimic this strategy and hire eligible Foundation Establishnt cultivators to queue.

"Taoist friend Wen, will your shop continue to sell Fifth Rank Treasures?"

A cultivator asked directly, while the remaining cultivators inside and outside of the store looked at Wen Qian with hopeful eyes.

"There should be so, but Fifth Rank Treasures are quite rare, so I can’t guarantee anything."

"If there are treasures for sale, I will inform everyone in advance to allow you seniors to prepare."

Wen Qian spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

"Alright then."

"Taoist friend Wen, this is my Communication Talisman. If there are Fifth Rank Treasures, please inform imdiately."

A female cultivator with a graceful deanor left a pristine Jade Talisman with Wen Qian.

Seeing this, the other two Golden Core True Persons, along with so Foundation Establishnt cultivators, also left their Communication Talismans.

Wen Qian, looking at the pile of Communication Talismans in his hand, felt a sense of unreality.

"A Core Formation True Person gave their contact information?"

It took him a while to co to terms with this reality. As he saw off the various cultivators, his steps alternated between light and heavy, as if he were treading on cloud clusters.

After the custors in the store had mostly dispersed, Lu Xuan entered the shop, nodded towards Wen Qian.

"Well done."

"It’s mainly due to the treasures brought out by Senior Lu that were popular."

Wen Qian subtly dished out a complint.

"If the timing is right later on, I’ll bring out one or two Fifth Rank Treasures too."

Lu Xuan harbored the idea of turning the humble grocery store into a boutique shop. The treasures that erged from the light cluster, being relatively low in rank and not so widely useful, would be sold in the grocery store to steadily earn Spirit Stones.

"Senior Lu, this is the amount of Spirit Stones we earned today, totaling over three hundred thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones."

Wen Qian respectfully presented over three thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

The allure of the Nine-Headed Dragon Map was truly imnse. Even those cultivators who did not acquire the map could not help but notice the other rare treasures in the store, often buying one or two on impulse, thus bringing a large amount of business to the shop in no ti.

"This is the importance of attracting custors."

Lu Xuan reflected on a thought, then went to the Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce branch. Half a day ago, Master Wen had sent him a ssage that a Pure and Clear Colored Glaze Tea Spirit Seed had been transferred from the Comrce Association Headquarters.

"Taoist friend Wen."

On the fourth floor of the branch, inside an elegant room, Lu Xuan looked at the still-charming Wen surna female cultivator with a smile.

"Senior Lu, I have successfully fulfilled the mission. Upon learning from the headquarters that there was a Pure Lustrous Tea Spirit Seed, I imdiately requested it to be transported here."

"The upper echelons at the headquarters learned that it was for Senior Lu and imdiately dispatched soone to use the transmission array to send it over."

The Wen surna female cultivator spoke softly.

She brought over a jade dish that emitted a faint chill to Lu Xuan.

In the center of the jade dish lay a tea seed the thickness of a pinky finger, with a pale green color and surrounded by a circulation of purifying light, emitting a fresh and natural aura from afar.

"Indeed, it is a Pure Lustrous Tea Spirit Seed."

Lu Xuan nodded. He had originally received the Pure Lustrous Tea Spirit Plant from True Man Qingxu of the Sky Sword Sect when it was just a small sapling. Yet, having cultivated it for many years, he naturally recognized it at first glance.

"You’ve worked hard, Taoist friend Wen. How much is the Spirit Seed?"

He inquired about the price from the female cultivator, as, despite being a Guest Elder of the Comrce Association, the proper procedures still had to be followed.

"Senior Lu holds a prestigious identity within the Comrce Association. You are entitled to a certain discount when purchasing treasures. This Fifth Rank Pure Lustrous Tea Spirit Seed can be taken for eighteen thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones."

"No problem, please have a look, Taoist friend Wen."

Lu Xuan cheerfully took out one hundred and eighty Middle Grade Spirit Stones and handed them to the female cultivator.

A normal Fifth Rank Spirit Seed often sells for no less than twenty thousand Spirit Stones. For a rare variety like the Pure Lustrous Tea, the value would only be higher.

Before he beca a Guest Elder, he had bought Fourth Grade Spirit Seeds in the branch, which cost him about five to six thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones each. Being able to purchase at such a price, he was naturally quite satisfied.

"This is the advantage of being backed by a powerful force."

He looked at the tea seed with the purifying light erging in his hand and felt reflective.

Back when he was in the Sky Sword Sect, as a Sky Sword Sect Disciple, he obtained a large number of Spirit Seeds from the Agricultural Departnt Hall, Sword Hall, Authentic Teaching Disciples, and Core Formation True People, which resulted in nurous treasures from the light clusters and a teoric rise in his cultivation level and strength.

Now, having arrived in Liyang Region and becoming a Guest Elder of the Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce, which was far more powerful than the Sky Sword Sect, accessing high-grade Spirit Seeds had beco even easier and more convenient.

It was well known that acquiring Spirit Seeds, such as the Pure Lustrous Tea being a Fifth-Quality Spirit Plant without the corresponding thod of Seed Condensation, was extrely difficult. Yet now, all he needed to do was to request, and the Comrce Association delivered them directly to him.

"Deciding to beco a Guest Elder of the Comrce Association was too correct. Being here is like coming ho."

He felt a significant increase in his sense of belonging to the Comrce Association.
