Zong Shou was caught off guard, taking a look at the old man beside him.
After thinking for a moment he smiled, “Since senior knows Villa head Yan, you must be a senior within the sword Sect. Junior is blind and nearly didn’t recognize that Senior is actually an expert above the day wandering realm. However, for senior to say that my cultivation was exceptional is okay. I’m not a humble person. But only this business, I don’t know whether I’ll earn or lose. Look at those people. They are all scolding me and saying that I’m a fool.”
The 2 of them didn’t bother to hide their voice when they spoke. However the other people apart from Hu Zhongyuan and Tan Tao, no one else could hear what they were saying.
When the old man heard that he scoffed coldly, “That is because they themselves are the fools! I don’t know how you deduced that the price of the beast crystals will fall, but anyways this deal will be a definite win, and the profits won’t be small. Purchasing basic pills to increase their value, this idea is a novel one. Although my Wujue Villa was planning to toss our beast crystals, we only thought about purchasing some top spiritual herbs…”
Zong Shou thought that this old man was not only from the Sword Sect, he was also from Wujue Villa. His expression didn’t change, “Since senior says that, I am at ease. All you big sects eat meat while small shrimp-like me will drink soup.”
Whilst speaking, he was looking at a person. It was the one he saw before, the guy from the fox race. Below his sleeves his 5 fingers pointed towards Zong Yuan, changing the length and position of his fingers in a really hidden movement. He seemed really casual but there was a tempo to it.
Zong Shou was a little speechless. Was he being bullied for not knowing the secret code? In the last life, he didn’t read relevant books for no reason.
…8 hours later, east region earth word corridor room b, he wanted to meet Zong Yuan? He’s is going to be disappointed.
That old man didn’t notice anything. This thing concerned a million grade 4 beast crystals. Zong Shou has such a huge procurement amount so Donglin Cloud Continent was far from enough. The other continents and 12 islands would also want to interfere.
They could roughly see that at least within these few years, the price of basic pills would be controlled by this prince.
Such huge profits tugged at their hearts. If they didn’t bother about the credit of the Sanlu Bank, Wujue Villa would even stop at nothing to snatch this business.
However, even if they didn’t fuss about all this, they wouldn’t have a chance. This prince, in just a few months, would be in the same sect as them. Even if he wasn’t, the power standing behind him would cause everyone who knew to take a step back.
…that common people path had fought with Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. Although the Sword Sect was really strong, they might not be able to win.
Zong Shou didn’t care much about the words that the old man said. However, Hu Zhongyuan and Tan Tao were delighted. They totally calmed down and knew that they would definitely earn money, and there was nothing they should worry about. Their faces were filled with joy, and even Chuxue rolled her eyes and took out all her money. She only had a few hundred grade 2 and 3 beast crystals and naturally couldn’t participate in this level of trade. However, she managed to find some scattered products in the trading hall.
When she walked back gleefully, the trading here was mostly completed. Not only were they purchasing basic pills and armor, but there were also some other business deals that might have explosive profits. Zong Shou was only afraid he could spend all the beast crystals in the bank which was why he made so many deals.
The one that they didn’t expect, the last person out of them, the Kongqi Sect external deacon called Qiao Han.
Zong Shou had been looking forward to this person. The Kongqi Sect focused on crafting artifacts. The talisman and basic spiritual artifacts in their collection would definitely be huge. However, this Sect also nurtured pill refiners. They should have around 50 million in the treasury.
As expected, the person didn’t disappoint, “my Kongqi Sect crafted a total of 1.7 million talisman armor, 3.7 million talisman weapons3. Bows, swords, and halberds are all present. They are all accumulated for Long, split into levels. Basic grade spiritual weapons and artifacts are relatively lesser at around 3 thousand. The overall price would be around 10 grade 7 beast crystals, one can also use grade 6 mind stones. Since both of us are here, the prince can take his pick and discuss the price.”
Zong Shou was slightly surprised, talisman weapons and armor, as well as spiritual weapons, were much harder to craft than those pills. Like Pill Fountain Sect, 40 big mixed energy furnaces going all out. Each day they could make 40 thousand basic pills. One talisman weapon or spiritual weapon would take many days. They had huge sales and their consumption was also humongous.
Actually, the profit margin for weapons would be several times higher than at of basic pills, and unfortunately, there was a smaller amount.
For Kongqi Sect to have such high reserves was really surprising. One mustn’t look at how a million wasn’t much. In Gantian Mountain City, only the black fox iron cavalry or elite troops like the iron tiger halberd warrior could be equipped with such talisman armor. Next would be the officers in the army which could afford such armor.
Then, Qiao Han’s tone changed, “However I came here especially for another deal, which I want to speak with the prince about! Can the prince follow me to make a trip?”
Zong Shou felt weird, taking another look at this person. Since he said especially for another deal, then it most probably didn’t have to do with the basic pills and weapons. Who knows what this Kongqi Sect external deacon was planning.
However thinking about it, he still had hundreds of thousands of grade 4 beast crystals that hadn’t been sold. Some big sellers probably haven’t gotten the news so it wouldn’t be bad to make a trip with him.
He immediately nodded his head, allowing Qiao Han to lead him from the front. Not Long later they walked into the room of one of the shops.
As expected from one of the largest hidden sects in Donglin Cloud Continent. The territory it occupied in this Jiefu City was really vast. Just this room alone was 5 thousand feet of space.
The moment Zong Shou followed him in, he was immediately startled. Only to see that at a corner of the treasury was rows of neatly arranged armor. Deep red in color, all of it was full body armor, helmets, and face armor were all present. They were supported by wooden racks, standing quietly there, shining off a metallic glow and revealing a really cold aura.
Beside it was a rack of armor. There were halberds and also deep red Longbows and knives.
There was horse armor of similar quality which also covered the entire body. Only it was special, it’s head protein had a sharp horn.
Looking from far, an aura of the golden dagger iron horse surged at his face.
What Zong Shou paid attention to most was that these armors didn’t have any markings and runes in their surface. But looking at their aura, they were obviously above spiritual artifact rank. All the armor and weapons had the runes carved within and were crafted as such.
Looking out and counting on the estimate, there was actually a full 4500 sets!
“Grade 3 spiritual artifact? That’s not right, it seemed to be the armor that was simplified before being crafted. It seems to be between spiritual and talisman artifact.”
Simply put, in a short amount of time it, could show off the strength of spiritual artifacts but it couldn’t last long. Not only did it need strong true qi or spiritual energy to activate it, one couldn’t use it flexibly.
Zong Shou brows furrowed and he observed closely,” they seem to be of some age, some portions were repaired and crafted over. Deacon Qiao are you going to sell it all to me?”
Although that was the case, Hu Zhongyuan and the others all took in a deep cold breath. A full 4500 grade 3 spiritual weapons! What kind of concept is this? Even if there are as many flaws as Zong Shou said they could at least be sold for 500 thousand grade 4 mind stones, even a million!”
“That’s right!” Qiao Han smiled, “Is the prince interested? In this world, there isn’t many set armor that can be used in war. The spiritual artifact level ones are even rarer!”
“Which ruins did your Sect get these things from? it was over ten thousand years old, and in the end, you couldn’t sell them right?”
Seeing the awkwardness on Qiao Han’s face, Zong Shou pouted and laughed coldly, “These armors and equipment, without the martial ancestor level strength it is useless. It is also not much stronger than normal steel. And one can only ride to battle and not form up into a formation. As for these horse armor, one has to find dragon horned winged horses to equip. However, in this world where can, one find so many of them?”
Dragon horned winged horses and that wind winged dragon beast was different. The former was a grade 4 beast similar to xiantian while the latter was just grade 3. Although they both had the word dragon word in them, the dragon horned winged horse cane from a true dragon whilst the ancestor of the wind winged dragon beast was a fake dragon.
Qiao Han’s face instantly turned ashen white. He originally thought that this Zong Shou was dumb if not why would he buy so many basic pills? Now it seems like he really knows the value of the items.
When Hu Zhongyuan and Tan Tao exchanged glances, they lost a lot of interest in these armors.
Dragon horned winged horse, in the entire Donglin Cloud Continent there was only around 1500-1600 of them and they were really expensive.
Even if Zong Shou was rich and bought all these horses, how could there be so many martial ancestor experts in Gantian Mountain?
If he scoured the entire 5 provinces, maybe he might be able to find 3-5 thousand. However such strong items, how could he casually put in the hands of others.
And if a solo martial ancestor expert had the money, why wouldn’t he just buy a proper grade 3 spiritual artifact.
That Qiao Han seemed to be trying his best to suppress his anxious emotions explaining, “What the prince doesn’t know is that this armor is the armor of the blood cloud cavalry of the Wulie Country during the cloud desolate era. In that era, the 30 thousand blood cloud cavalry of this country was invincible in the cloud world, with close to 600 grandmasters and body forming experts at the front of their formation. Once a thousand is gathered up they could from the blood cloud formation which no one in Donglin Cloud Continent could block!”
Zong Shou laughed, looking away in disinterest, “Deacon Qiao don’t bully me for not reading. I also know a little about the Wulie Country. Although those blood cloud cavalries were invincible during their era, destroy tens of sects, I heard how the 30 thousand of them were crushed. Once the armor numbered below 300, there’s a fatal flaw, right? I remembered that it was mentioned in a book…”
