Chapter 166: Pre-order

~7 min read 1,321 words

He Pingsheng didn't walk into the chamber of commerce immediately but continued to wander around the stalls outside.

Just as the middle-aged cultivator said, poison elixirs were something very few people went to take out, even if they obtained them.

They didn't have much use!

Except for some poison cultivators.

So He Pingsheng felt that even if he went to the chamber of commerce, he might not be able to gather enough, and if he could get one or two at the stalls, that would be best.

But unfortunately, he spent half a stick of incense's time and almost visited all the stalls, but he didn't find any poison elixirs.

There was even a stall owner who asked him naively, what is a poison elixir?

He Pingsheng had to continue walking forward and enter the chamber of commerce area.

He looked up and saw a familiar chamber of commerce: Fenghe Manor.

Back then, he had come to Matou Mountain to sell Fierce Sun Flower pollen under the orders of True Person Elder Ku Mu, and it was here that he had traded.

Let's go in and take a look!

Shopkeeper Liu, who was sitting behind the counter, glanced at He Pingsheng. He didn't even use his spiritual sense, but based on He Pingsheng's clothing, age, and behavior, he had already prejudged that He Pingsheng was just a Qi Condensation disciple. He didn't even stand up, just greeted him casually: "What does the distinguished guest want?"

He Pingsheng didn't speak; his spiritual sense stretched out gently and swept over Shopkeeper Liu.

Fourth layer of Foundation Establishment.

The key was, after He Pingsheng swept him like that, Shopkeeper Liu didn't seem to notice.

He Pingsheng was suddenly surprised: No way, no reaction at all?

Let's try again.

He Pingsheng swept him again to test.

Shopkeeper Liu's face on the opposite side suddenly turned very ugly: "Kid, once was enough, what's the meaning of sweeping twice?"

Uh...

He Pingsheng looked embarrassed.

It seemed it wasn't that the other party had no reaction, but as a shopkeeper, he was swept too many times every day, and he was probably numb to it.

He Pingsheng smiled apologetically and said: "Sorry, Wang Shixiong, this younger brother was just curious for a moment, please forgive me!"

Shopkeeper Liu's gaze narrowed slightly, and he hurriedly extended his spiritual sense to sweep over He Pingsheng again, suddenly shocked, saying: "Hey... Junior Brother... you, you, you... disrespect, disrespect, so you are a Foundation Establishment Daoist friend..."

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly stood up from his seat and bowed: "Disrespect, disrespect!"

"What does Junior Brother want?"

Foundation Establishment, although not a very high cultivation, in the cultivation world where ants are everywhere, it could already earn corresponding respect.

"Uh..." He Pingsheng looked inside the chamber of commerce and said: "This younger brother wants some poison elixirs, I don't know if your chamber of commerce has any?"

"And I want second-tier poison elixirs!"

"Poison elixirs?" Hearing about this stuff, the shopkeeper's body stiffened, and then his sharp gaze looked at He Pingsheng again, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

In his view, those who wanted poison elixirs were all poison cultivators.

And poison cultivators were none of them easy to deal with; if they disagreed, they would poison you, and you wouldn't even know how you died.

"Sorry... little brother!" Shopkeeper Liu smiled bitterly and said: "This small shop really doesn't have this stuff, let alone second-tier ones, we don't even have first-tier ones!"

"To tell you the truth, even if we receive this stuff in our shop, it's not easy to sell!"

He Pingsheng asked: "Does Wang Shixiong know where I can buy them?"

How would Shopkeeper Liu dare to offend a poison cultivator? He hurriedly said: "Junior Brother, this stuff is not easy to buy. As far as I know, not only does this shop not have it, but the chambers of commerce inside probably don't have it either!"

"As for where you can buy it, I don't know either!"

"However, if Junior Brother needs it urgently, you can go to the Black Frontier and take a look!"

"Cultivators come and go in the Black Frontier all year round, you should be able to buy it there!"

He Pingsheng shook his head!

He wouldn't go to the Black Frontier.

Too far!

And how would he collect them?

He couldn't just squat there and set up a stall saying he wanted to collect poison elixirs, right?

"Daoist friend!" He Pingsheng bowed and said: "Do you have a collection service here, where you can issue a mission, so that after a period of time, someone will come to pay the poison elixirs?"

"This..."

Shopkeeper Liu nodded and said: "There is indeed such a service."

"However, regarding the pricing... I suggest fifty spirit stones each!"

"Although poison elixirs are considered useless items in the eyes of most cultivators, they are after all things inside second-tier demonic beasts, and not all demonic beasts have them!"

"So, fifty spirit stones each is quite appropriate!"

He Pingsheng nodded: "Okay!"

"How many does Junior Brother need?" Shopkeeper Liu asked again.

He Pingsheng said: "Help me collect one hundred first. By the way, if there are third-tier poison elixirs, keep them for me as well!"

"One hundred?" Shopkeeper Liu opened his mouth wide, shocked, and then said: "If it were just one, I could waive the service fee, but if it's one hundred, little brother... there is a service fee involved!"

He Pingsheng nodded: "How much?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

Paying some money is normal.

Shopkeeper Liu said: "Under normal circumstances, we take one-tenth, but since the quantity you need is large, I can make the decision to only take half a tenth!"

One hundred poison elixirs would cost five thousand spirit stones to collect; a one-tenth service fee would be five hundred spirit stones, and half a tenth would be two hundred and fifty.

He Pingsheng nodded: "Good, no problem!"

He reached out and took out a storage bag.

This was the lowest-grade storage bag, usually used for show.

He Pingsheng dumped the storage bag onto the shopkeeper's table.

At first, Shopkeeper Liu thought He Pingsheng was going to dump spirit stones, but then he was dumbfounded.

Low-tier magic tool flying swords, mid-tier magic tool flying swords!

Flying swords!

Spears!

Blades!

A whole pile of various magic tools.

Adding them all up, there were a full dozen or so pieces.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Shopkeeper Liu gasped.

Who the hell carries eight flying swords on them for no reason?

You could tell with your butt that these things definitely weren't this guy's; how many cultivators had he killed outside to get these things?

Good fellow, this poison cultivator really wasn't someone to be trifled with.

"Shopkeeper, help me take a look, how much are these things worth altogether?" He Pingsheng pointed casually.

"Good, good, good..." The shopkeeper started organizing them.

Actually, low-tier magic tools weren't worth much.

Adding all the dozen or so magic tools together, it only came to a little over two thousand spirit stones in the end.

He Pingsheng made up the rest.

"Alright!" Shopkeeper Liu said: "Please take this Heart-Connection Talisman, and when the poison elixirs arrive, I will notify you to come and collect them. Keep this jade token well; if you don't have time to come, sending your disciples to come is also fine!"

"Good!" He Pingsheng took a Heart-Connection Talisman and a jade token.

"Do you need anything else?" The shopkeeper looked at He Pingsheng and became a bit more respectful.

He Pingsheng said: "I'll go take a look!"

He still wanted to buy some other items for self-defense.

Hmm... talismans would be best.

Every time He Pingsheng had fought with others, he had relied on talismans to escape; if he could buy more talismans, that would naturally be good. ===== CHAPTER 167 =====
