Chapter 16 The Ultimate Unscrupulous Merchant [Please Collect]

After changing into the "invisibility suit", Zhuo Bufan left the clothing store with the remaining two hundred taels of spirit stones.

Then he wandered around the street, preparing some items needed for the treasure hunting conference tomorrow.

Zhuo Bufan soon discovered that in this world, the art of talismans is simply omnipotent.

Unlike the immortal world he imagined, there are no alchemists or weapon refiners here.

Because all of these can be achieved by talismans.

For example, if you combine the "purification talisman" with a bottle of water, then the bottle of water becomes a purification liquid. After drinking it, you can concentrate and calm your mind, detoxify and eliminate evil.

If you combine the "rejuvenation talisman" with a sugar bean, then the sugar bean becomes a rejuvenation pill. After taking it, you can recover from injuries and strengthen your body.

If you combine the "calming talisman" with a stick of incense, then the stick of incense will become a calming incense. Lighting this incense can release the calming energy, which is beneficial to the cultivation of the soul.

...

When everything can be achieved with spells, alchemists, weapon refiners and the like seem to have no need to exist.

Spell masters have also become the most important profession in this world.

Zhuo Bufan decided to become a great spell master. In this way, he can be self-sufficient in everything.

However, to become a spell master, the most important thing is to cultivate the soul.

Although ‘Chu Shi’ promised Zhuo Bufan that once he passed the treasure hunting conference, he would teach him how to cultivate the soul.

But what if he couldn’t pass it?

Zhuo Bufan knew very well that in this world, he could only rely on himself.

So he decided to teach himself. There are always some people in this world who can become talented through self-study. For example, Zhuo Bufan in his previous life was admitted to Peking University by self-study. Isn’t this pretty awesome?

“There are so many stores on the street, there should be a bookstore.”

Books have their own golden house, and books have their own thousand bushels of grain! Zhuo Bufan wants to learn how to cultivate the soul by himself, so reading books is the best choice.

However, he searched several streets but did not find a bookstore.

After asking, he learned that in this world, skills, scriptures, and secrets are all secrets that many mountain sects will never pass on.

After all, a set of skills with a complete system is enough to establish a mountain.

However, he also heard that some disciples of some sects, although they were forbidden to disclose the skills and secrets of the mountain sect, would secretly trade with some black merchants in order to obtain a large number of spirit stones.

And this is still a considerable income.

The lower-level yellow-level skills can be sold for 100,000 spirit stones, and the upper-level ones can be sold for 200,000 spirit stones.

The lower-level black-level skills can be sold for 500,000 spirit stones, and the upper-level ones can reach 1 million.

Many disciples will risk their lives to sell the sect's skills for this considerable income.

Of course, in order to prevent such things from happening, many mountain sects will curse their disciples. Once the skills are written or read out, they will die suddenly.

In short, it is almost impossible to buy a secret manual of martial arts on these streets outside.

However, there is always a way out.

Zhuo Bufan asked around for the way to the bookstore. Although he did not find the bookstore, he attracted the attention of those who were interested.

Just when it was getting dark, someone took the initiative to find Zhuo Bufan.

At that time, Zhuo Bufan was enjoying a delicious meal of ten taels of spirit stones in a tavern. Zhuo Bufan dared to guarantee with his life that this was more delicious than the food made by all the chefs on the earth.

It really felt like a volcano erupting and then spewing out the word "delicious".

After eating it, Zhuo Bufan regretted changing to such a body, because the stomach of this life and death body was too small.

Just when Zhuo Bufan was intoxicated by the river of food in the world of cultivation.

Suddenly, a bearded uncle in blue clothes who looked a little sloppy sat down at Zhuo Bufan's table, and then grabbed a fairy chicken leg on the table without any hesitation and started to eat it crazily.

Zhuo Bufan was stunned when he saw his impolite look.

"Uncle, who are you?"

Zhuo Bufan knocked on the table, but the other party ignored him and ate happily.

"Hey, you are really impolite! I haven't paid for this meal of ten spirit stones yet, and I'm giving it to you!"

The other party was shameless, and Zhuo Bufan was even more ruthless than him, so he was ready to run.

As a result, the other party saw this and grabbed Zhuo Bufan's hand, and then said: "Brother, brother, sit down and talk, don't you want to buy that? I have the goods!"

Zhuo Bufan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he sat down quickly, and then asked in detail: "Do you have that?"

"Hehe, I am the only merchant in Huoyun City who sells that kind of thing. You found the right person to find me."

The uncle stuffed the wine and meat into his mouth, as if he had not eaten for dozens of days, and wolfed it down.

"Then do you have what I want?" Zhuo Bufan asked.

"Of course I have it. You've been wandering around the street for an afternoon, and I've noticed you a long time ago. I have everything you want in my store."

"Where is your store?"

"East Street Liuxiang!"

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"

When Zhuo Bufan heard it, he grabbed the uncle and walked out.

"Wait, wait, wait, I'm catching a chicken."

Then, the uncle who looked greedy for money took Zhuo Bufan to a store called 'Samadhi Bookstore'.

This store is hidden deep in a secluded alley and is difficult to be found.

Walking into Samadhi Bookstore, Zhuo Bufan discovered that this bookstore really has a lot of books. However, these books were all fantasy novels or calligraphy scrolls. Zhuo Bufan did not see the book he wanted.

"Sit down for a while." The weird uncle poured a cup of tea for Zhuo Bufan, and then he got into the back room.

After a while, he came out holding a booklet called "Basic Soul Cultivation Rules".

There is also a dark brown square seal on this booklet. Zhuo Bufan guessed that it should be the mark produced by being used as a pad under the table.

"Hey, this secret book is a treasure that I have hidden for many years. I don't tell most people. For the sake of our fate, I will sell it to you for ten thousand spiritual stones."

"puff!"

Zhuo Bufan sprayed water on the profiteer's face.

"Oh, I'll go!" The profiteer uncle wiped tea on his face, then suppressed his anger and looked at Zhuo Bufan with a smile.

The customer is God, and he is ready to make a fortune.

"Is the tea too hot? Let me change it for you."

When Zhuo Bufan heard this, he almost spit on his face.

The other party is no longer shameless, but completely shameless.

"I'm sorry, it's too expensive. I'd better go look elsewhere!" After Zhuo Bufan finished speaking, he was about to get up and leave.

When the profiteer uncle saw this, he quickly stopped him and said, "Hey, little brother, stop it!"

"You sit down first, you sit down first. As for the price, it's easy to negotiate, right? Being able to bargain is the way to do business. You say how much is appropriate, and we'll discuss it later," said the profiteer.

Seeing his sincere look, Zhuo Bufan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I can only produce one hundred and eighty-eight spiritual stones at most."

One hundred and eighty-eight spiritual stones were already all the spiritual stones Zhuo Bufan could produce.

The other party asked for ten thousand, and he shouted out one hundred and eighty-eight, which was a bit of a harsh bargain.

Zhuo Bufan could clearly see that the profiteer's face changed, turned red, and made a constipated expression.

"I should be kicked out in the next second, right?" Zhuo Bufan was already prepared to be kicked out.

But next, he never expected that the profiteer suddenly showed a proud smile, grabbed Zhuo Bufan's hand and shouted.

"For the sake of brother, you just invited me to dinner, one hundred and eighty-eight, one hundred and eighty-eight, take it."

The profiteer was snickering in his heart, and Zhuo Bufan was really roaring in his heart.

"I, Cao, have been fooled again. This shabby book is definitely not worth even one spiritual stone."
