Chapter 8 Setting up a stall

Chapter 8 Setting up a stall
The young man put away a low-grade spirit stone, took out a wooden sign engraved with the number fifty-six and threw it over.

Yun Chong caught the wooden sign and walked towards stall No. 56. He saw monks from the market coming and going. They were of all kinds. Some were wearing strange clothes, some had their breasts exposed, and some were relatively normal.

Grandpa Yun Hao and his grandson came to stall No. 56. Yun Chong took out a piece of gray cloth from his storage bag and spread it on the ground. He then took out about twenty fireball talismans and ten Vajra talismans, and also took out two bottles of Yellow Dragon Pills, two bottles of Qi-training Powder, two bottles of Essence-nourishing Pills, and several books on the basic Five Elements exercises and placed them on the stall.

At position 55 was a pretty girl in a silk dress, about sixteen or seventeen years old. Her cultivation was at the seventh level of Qi training. On her stall were some basic Five Elements exercises, several spiritual medicines that were more than ten years old, and some seeds.

Position 57 is still vacant.

From time to time, monks walked past their stall.

At this time, a young man in a yellow robe came over. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old and seemed to be at the seventh or eighth level of Qi training. "Stall owner, what kind of pills are in those bottles you have displayed?"

Yun Chong said with a smile, "Brother, what are here are Huanglong Pill, Lianqi Powder and Yangjing Pill. Among them, Huanglong Pill and Yinqi Pill are both elixirs for strengthening the body and nourishing the vital energy, while Yangjing Pill is also a holy medicine for healing wounds."

Yun Hao, on the other hand, watched calmly how the old man traded with others.

"Oh! There are also elixirs for strengthening the body and replenishing the vital energy. I wonder how much they cost and how to buy them." The young man was a little surprised at first, and then spoke in a low voice.

Yun Chong saw the young man lower his voice, and for a moment he didn't want to attract attention, so he also lowered his voice: "This bottle contains ten Yellow Dragon Pills, each pill is two low-grade spirit stones."

"This bottle contains Qi-inducing pills, which are effective for those in the middle and late stages of Qi training. Therefore, each pill costs three low-grade spirit stones. There are ten in this bottle. How many do you want, little brother?"

"This bottle is a nourishing pill, which has a good healing effect. It is a must-have medicine for us casual cultivators when we go out to hunt monsters!"

The young man listened to what Grandpa Yun said, but because he didn't have many spirit stones, he asked, "Stall owner, can you make it cheaper?"

"If you buy individually, it won't be cheap. If the guy buys more at a time, the price can be discounted by 10%."

The young man thought for a moment and asked again, "Can you accept barter here, stall owner?"

"That depends on what it is. After all, this is a pill that can strengthen the body and replenish the vital energy, so there is no problem in selling it." Yun Chong glanced at the young man.

The young man hurriedly patted his storage bag, took out a thunder and fire talisman and eighteen low-grade spirit stones, and asked, "I wonder if I can exchange these for the bottle of Qi-inducing pill in your hand?"

Thunder and Fire Talisman, a primary intermediate attack talisman, worth nine low-grade spirit stones.

Yun Chong saw that he had not suffered any loss. He didn't know what he was thinking about, but he pretended to be calm and took the talisman and spirit stone from the young man.

"Okay, fellow Daoist, please exchange the items in your hand, and this bottle of Qi-Inducing Pill will be yours."

After the transaction, the young man hurriedly merged into the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Old Master Yun put the spirit stone back into the storage bag, and handed the Thunder and Fire Talisman he had just obtained to Yun Hao who was standing beside him.

"Hao'er, this talisman is a primary to intermediate level attack talisman. You can use it to protect yourself," said Old Man Yun with a blink.

Yun Hao seemed to understand his grandfather's intention, so he took the talisman without hesitation and said in a fake tone, "Thank you, Grandpa!"

The pretty girl at the stall next to them had heard the conversation between Yun Chong and the young man, so she was also a little tempted. So when the young man left, she immediately said to Yun Chong, "Do you have any more of this kind of elixir? I can also exchange it for a talisman."

After saying that, the woman touched the storage bag on her waist, took out a flying talisman and handed it to Yun Chong.

When Yun Chong saw the flying talisman, he was secretly surprised. This was a rare high-level primary flying talisman!

"Miss, are you willing to exchange this amulet?"

"This is the talisman my family elders gave me to save my life, but there is nothing I can do. In a few years, there will be another Ascension Conference. Now I come across this Qi-Attracting Pill. If I use it with practice, maybe I can join the Seven Major Sects by then. However, this talisman is worth thirty spirit stones. If you want to exchange it, you have to compensate me with two Yellow Dragon Pills or corresponding spirit stones."

“Okay, okay.” Yun Chong knew how precious and life-saving the flying talisman was, so he said to the pretty girl readily.

Then he picked up another bottle of Qi-inducing Pills and two Yellow Dragon Pills and pushed them towards the pretty girl.

The pretty girl also hurriedly put away the pills she had just exchanged, and then set up her stall as if nothing had happened. Yun Chong handed the flying talisman to Yun Hao, and then he also concentrated on setting up his stall.

Yun Hao said to his grandfather, frowning and saying, "Grandpa, can you give me some spirit stones? I'll go see if there are any talismans or herbs I need."

Yun Chong knew what Yun Hao meant and also knew his abilities, so he safely handed over all the forty-three low-grade spirit stones he had to him and gave him some instructions.

“Don’t go too far!”

Yun Hao took the spirit stones he got from his grandfather, put them into his storage bag, and walked towards the stall in front step by step.

When he came to a stall of a beautiful middle-aged woman in a red dress, Yun Hao looked at a few unfamiliar talismans and asked, "Daoyou, what are these talismans and what are their uses?"

Seeing that it was a boy of about eleven or twelve years old, the beautiful woman in red was a little indifferent at first. It was only after she used her divine eye technique to check him that she became polite.

Although Yun Hao is not very old, he is already an eighth-level Qi training cultivator. Therefore, she believes that Yun Hao should be a descendant of a large family who has come out to gain experience, and he must have a lot of spirit stones on him.

"This is a special talisman: the sound transmission talisman."

"This is a lower-level primary fireball charm."

"This is a lower-level water arrow talisman."

"This is a lower-level Quicksand Talisman."

"This is a primary intermediate level earth thorn talisman."

"This is a primary intermediate ice sword talisman."

"This is a primary high-level Firebird Talisman..."

The beautiful woman in red gave instructions and introduced everything to Yun Hao one by one.

After he finished his introduction, Yun Hao pointed out several talismans that he did not have, including the Sound Transmission Talisman, Quicksand Talisman, Earth Spike Talisman, Ice Sword Talisman, and Fire Bird Talisman.

"How many spirit stones do all these require in total?"

"One sound transmission talisman, one lower-level primary talisman, two middle-level primary talismans and one high-level primary talisman require a total of fifty-one low-grade spirit stones. Fellow Daoist, just give fifty spirit stones." The beautiful woman immediately showed her joy.

"I don't have enough spirit stones here. Can I exchange them for some elixirs that can strengthen the body and replenish the vital energy?" Yun Hao felt a little uneasy for a moment and asked expectantly.

"Fellow Daoist, you have some elixirs that can strengthen your body, so of course you can do that."

Yun Hao took out two small porcelain bottles containing Huanglong Dan and handed them forward and asked, "Fellow Daoist, how much are these worth?"

The beautiful woman took the pill, scanned it with her spiritual sense, then uncorked the small porcelain bottle and put it under her nose to smell it. "Huanglong Pill, it's of excellent quality. One bottle of this pill is worth twenty low-grade spirit stones. Fellow Daoist, you only need to give me ten more spirit stones."

Upon hearing this, Yun Hao took out ten low-grade spirit stones and handed them to the beautiful woman. He then took away several elementary, intermediate and advanced level talismans that he needed and put them into his storage bag.

Just like this, three days passed in a flash. During these three days, Yun Hao also bought a kind of elixir that can be used in the Qi training period to strengthen the foundation and nourish the essence, the Qi Transformation Pill. The Qi Transformation Pill is similar to the Qi Attraction Pill, and both can be effective for cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi training.

Of course, he also copied the basic and high-level flying talismans three times in three days. Now, eight flying talismans are lying quietly in his storage bag, not for any other purpose but just to save his life.

And Grandpa Yun also reaped a lot of benefits in these three days. In just three days, he sold thirteen bottles of Qi-Inducing Pills and eight bottles of Yellow Dragon Pills, twelve Vajra Talismans, and thirty-six Fireball Talismans.

The wealth of the grandfather and grandson alone in low-grade spirit stones reached more than 600. For a time, it also aroused the envy of some malicious cultivators around.

After three days, Yun Hao and his grandfather packed up the stall and prepared to leave the valley. It was not that they did not want to continue, but it was indeed a bit eye-catching.
