After giving Zhao Baige so more pointers on alchemy, Lin Jichen finally stepped out of the Harmony Pharmacy and headed towards the last shop on his list.
The Shenbao Pharmacy, located right across from the Autumn Moon Pavilion.
To Lin Jichen's surprise, several new shops had sprung up on the sa street as Shenbao Pharmacy.
Nas like "Moon Shadow Equipnt Store," "Eternal Pharmacy," "Dominion Drugstore," and "Misty Rain Weapon Shop" dotted the street.
Clearly, these modern-sounding nas indicated that they were opened by players.
Lin Jichen wasn't too shocked by this. The recent storyline events had brought many battle rits and reputation points to the players.
Though not a lot, it was enough to open small shops.
In just a few days, these shops had mushrood everywhere.
However, there were hardly any dium-sized shops, let alone pri locations like Lin Jichen's.
Curious, Lin Jichen wandered around and found that Moon Shadow Guild had the most shops.
They had equipnt stores and pharmacies aplenty.
In addition, Jiang Luoyu had taken a unique approach by opening a pet shop, though it had very few pet eggs and their quality was poor.
Still, it attracted a lot of new players who lingered, eager to buy a pet.
After all, while more players were getting pets, the majority still lacked the luck or ans to find one.
Lin Jichen had also considered opening a pet shop but lacked suitable pet resources. He knew of a leveling spot with plenty of pet eggs, but it was a bit far.
He had been too busy before, but now that he had successfully crossed his tribulation, he planned to go there in a few days and bring back so eggs to open a large pet shop.
Jiang Luoyu's shops even included a restaurant, an inn, an alchemy room, and a forging room.
She also opened a "Moon Shadow Pawnshop," specializing in pawning equipnt and secret manuals, essentially functioning as a small auction house.
Since the shop was too small to be an auction house, she cleverly used the pawnshop to replace it.
To compete with other shops, she ran nurous promotions, quickly establishing a "Moon Shadow" brand street.
Many Moon Shadow Guild mbers would spend their free ti promoting in the city, warmly welcoming players.
Other guilds tried to follow suit.
But Moon Shadow had an edge—its mbers were all female players, many of whom were attractive.
Just a few of them doing promotions had a far greater impact than other guilds, and with more shops, they could create synergy.
For instance, buying a weapon from Moon Shadow Weapon Store would get you a 20% off coupon for Moon Shadow Pharmacy, and buying elixirs from the pharmacy would get you a 30% off coupon for the restaurant.
These continuous discounts dazzled players, leaving other guilds far behind.
After seeing all this, Lin Jichen couldn't help but admire Jiang Luoyu's business acun.
He had only managed to get ahead by relying on his large shop and his foresight as a reborn person.
If he had to compete with Jiang Luoyu on equal footing, he wouldn't stand a chance.
Lin Jichen silently thanked his lucky stars for being reborn; otherwise, he wouldn't have stood a chance against these capitalists in business.
Returning to his Shenbao Pharmacy, business was still booming.
However, unlike other shops that thrived during the day, his shop was busy at night.
After all, the Autumn Moon Pavilion only opened at night...
Though there wasn't much business during the day, Ning Kuan was busy making elixirs in the back.
He had to work overti now since he had to "work" at the Autumn Moon Pavilion at night.
The female shop assistant was no longer Xiaocui; she had been promoted to manager of the Harmony Pharmacy.
The current assistant was a charming woman who eagerly greeted Lin Jichen with shining eyes.
Lin Jichen, however, had no interest in her and casually exchanged a few words before greeting Ning Kuan and leaving the shop.
Seeing that Jiang Luoyu was online, he ssaged her to let her know he was back.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Luoyu imdiately asked if he had ti to go to the Corpse King Valley.
Lin Jichen readily agreed.
Returning to the Corpse King Valley, he found it as crowded as ever, especially since it was the weekend.
Fortunately, the Moon Shadow Guild stood out, making it easy for Lin Jichen to find them.
Seeing Lin Jichen, everyone started talking. After all, he had just taken down the Golden Core Realm BOSS a few days ago.
He had stunned all the players in the Tale of Immortal.
The cultivation rankings showed that Lin Jichen was only in the later stage of Foundation Establishnt, yet he had managed to kill a Golden Core Realm BOSS.
It was unbelievable.
But Lin Jichen had done it.
Now, Lin Jichen had just stepped into the Crystal Realm.
However, his ranking on the cultivation leaderboard was still far behind, outside the top 100,000.
But no one doubted his strength because of his ranking.
Many players had realized that the cultivation rankings were not an accurate asure of a player's true strength.
As Lin Jichen walked, guild leaders greeted him warmly.
Only one guild harbored hatred and resentnt towards him.
It was none other than Li Fengwen's Blood Fiend Guild.
Lin Jichen responded politely to the greetings from other guild leaders, showing no arrogance.
Passing by Blood Fiend, Lin Jichen couldn't resist taunting the silent Li Fengwen.
"Hey, isn't this President Li? Out of jail already? You look pretty rough."
"Lin Jichen, you ****ing ****!"
Li Fengwen cursed loudly. If he didn't know he couldn't win, he would have attacked Lin Jichen right then.
He had been imprisoned for seven days, and those seven days had been torture.
Every ti he logged in, he was stuck in the cell, unable to do anything.
If he logged out, his imprisonnt ti would pause, and it would only resu when he logged back in.
Seven whole days, he had almost gone mad.
In real-life detention centers, at least you could occasionally get so fresh air, see the sun, or even play so gas.
But in Tale of Immortal, there were no such activities. All he could do was sit in the cell.
During those seven days, he had cursed Lin Jichen's ancestors up to two thousand years back.
Other Blood Fiend mbers hadn't fared much better, being imprisoned for three days.
They had missed out on the storyline events and gained no benefits.
They hadn't managed to open a single shop.
Li Fengwen had been so angry that his blood pressure hadn't co down, nearly causing a stroke.
His hatred for Lin Jichen was indescribable, comparable to a vendetta for killing his father!
