542 An Intermediary
Many people would buy the food here. Of course, it was the lords who did it. His subordinates had been sourcing food on their own for years and would never come to the shopping street to buy these items.
They would only occasionally buy food here for the women to satisfy their cravings.
That explained why there were more and more inner cores in Camp Zhan Yun.
He would have come here to buy vegetables if An Jiuyue did not have her microcosmic space or fresh edible vegetables. He had no opportunity to use his inner cores now.
“There may not be many vegetables here because it’s difficult to grow them. They were irrigated by wood-type ability users from other planes. There are only so many of them each day. There won’t be any left over.”
“So, some people specialize in selling food to live here and earn one inner core a day?” An Jiuyue understood.
People needed to have their own strengths to survive here. Would she be able to sell the vegetables in her space here?
A lot of mushrooms had piled up in her space again. They were much tastier than store-bought ones. They were fragrant, smooth, and tender.
“Yes.” Qian Jiyun nodded.
Everyone could benefit from inner cores.
However, some people could not refine medicine and were not capable of killing demonic beasts. What could they do?
They could only sell some vegetables and food they grew here in exchange for an inner core and high-grade Original Soul Stones. They could then hire people to refine medicinal pills to boost their Original Soul energy.
“This is also a viable option. Many people cultivated their Original Soul energy like this.”
“I’ll open the shop after I choose a piece of land.”
An Jiuyue made up her mind to open the shop quickly. She could not just watch others earn money while she had nothing.
She could also not rely on Qian Jiyun for everything, right?
“Alright, I’ll accompany you to choose the land after we buy the pill-refining furnace,” Qian Jiyun said.
Soon, they arrived at a shop. As soon as they entered, they saw a row of pill-refining furnaces on a shelf.
Of course, there were other things in the large tent—medicinal herbs, pills, and almost everything a medicine refiner needed.
“This shop is so big. How rich is the owner?” An Jiuyue exclaimed.
Qian Jiyun chuckled and glanced at her. “The things sold here don’t belong to one person.”
“Not one person?” An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows.
It was impossible for many people to open this shop together. There would definitely be conflicts, and the shop would not last long.
Hence, did Qian Jiyun mean that the things in this shop belonged to different people, while the boss here charged them a fee and only sold them on their behalf to survive at Huayan Peak?
“This is an intermediary!” She understood.
This intermediary was undeniably competent. Why else would they open such a large store on Huayan Peak?
“Something like that.”
Qian Jiyun thought for a moment and felt that An Jiuyue’s description was accurate.
It was essentially an intermediary who profited from the difference between the selling price and the fees charged. However, this was no easy income.
