Chapter 333: Selling Flying Swords. As Expected of a Merchant
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Thousand Treasures Pavilion was not too far away from him. With his figure moving, he quickly crossed a few streets and arrived in front of a magnificent pavilion.
The pavilion’s decorations were still as luxurious and magnificent as before.
Glazed tiles were made along the edges, and ancient wood was used as a fence. A gorgeous plaque hung high above the grand entrance.
On both sides of the gate were the guards of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion. In the middle of the night, there were still cultivators coming in and out.
Looking at the appearance of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Su Yi could not help but laugh at himself. He did not expect that he would one day go to the Thousand Treasures Pavilion to do business. It was a bit ironic.
In the great desolate region, the Thousand Treasures Pavilion had tried to block his progress and tried to kill him many times.
Fortunately, each time, he had enough strength to suppress them. Otherwise, the other party would have really succeeded.
So this time, what att.i.tude should he use to face the Thousand Treasures Pavilion?
Looking at the grand and imposing pavilion, he sighed and muttered, “Forget it. In any case, the Thousand Treasures Pavilion in the central sky region doesn’t know of my existence. It’s fine as long as it’s normal.”
Thinking of this, he walked in. The guards on both sides of the door didn’t look down on him and didn’t stop Su Yi.
He walked to the center of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion. It was brightly lit inside, and it was quite lively with people coming and going between cultivators.
Su Yi looked over and found that the first floor of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion sold foundation establishment equipment, but he did not see any core formation equipment.
He walked to the front desk in the hall on the first floor and asked, “Miss, do you accept items here?”
The little girl raised her head and found a handsome young man in a red and yellow robe.
Her eyes flashed with a spring light as she thought to herself, ‘It would be worth it if she could spend a night with this man.’
However, she was obviously thinking too much. Su Yi did not come here to pick up girls.
He looked at the female cultivator at the front desk who was in a daze. He spoke again. “Miss?”
When the latter heard this, she suddenly came back to her senses. She secretly threw a flirtatious glance at Su Yi.
However, Su Yi was still unmoved.
When the female cultivator saw that Su Yi was indifferent, she was a little disappointed. She knew that Su Yi did not have that kind of intention toward her, and then she said with a professional smile, “Young Master, what do you need to sell?”
“Flying swords!”
Hearing this, the female cultivator at the front desk was clearly stunned for a moment before she explained, “Young Master, our Thousand Treasure Pavilion does indeed purchase flying swords. However, if the quality of the flying swords is not up to standard…”
Hearing this, Su Yi knew what the other party wanted to say.
In other words, they would accept standard flying swords, but they would not accept trash like Chen Xuan’s swords.
With a wave of his hand, he took out the flying sword that was placed in the seal s.p.a.ce.
He placed it on the counter and looked at the female cultivator.
“How about this one? Can you accept it?”
The female cultivator looked at the flying sword on the counter. The patterns on it were complete. It was of high quality, and even its attributes had reached the middle grade.
She was slightly surprised. She originally thought that Su Yi would take out a trash flying sword or a low-grade flying sword. She did not expect him to take out a middle-grade flying sword.
Her expression was a little shocked, and she was a little hesitant.
“Well, Young… Young Master, I can’t make the decision on this flying sword. I… I’ll help you find the manager.”
With that, she ran all the way up to the second floor.
Su Yi’s actions also attracted the attention of many cultivators.
“That’s a middle-grade flying sword? It’s really something.”
“A mid-grade flying sword is worth several thousand low-grade spirit stones, right?”
“I’m so envious. If I had this flying sword, why would I need to work?”
“Tsk, isn’t it just a mid-grade flying sword? What’s there to be arrogant about…”
…
When Su Yi heard about these cultivators who had nothing to do, he felt helpless.
He sometimes wanted to keep a low profile, but he would always be conspicuous in some way.
He followed the female cultivator up to the second floor and soon led a shrewd middle-aged man with a mustache down.
“Manager, the one who wants to sell mid-grade flying swords is precisely that Young Master.”
As she said this, the female cultivator pointed at Su Yi.
The middle-aged shopkeeper came in front of Su Yi and sized him up. Then, he said indifferently, “Little brother, there are many eyes outside. Come in and talk.”
As he said this, the middle-aged shopkeeper invited Su Yi to a side room.
In the side room, the manager ordered the maid to prepare tea. Then, he looked at the flying sword in Su Yi’s hand and asked, “Little brother, can you let me have a closer look at this flying sword?”
“Of course.”
Facing the shopkeeper’s request, Su Yi did not refuse. After all, he was also here to sell things. As long as the final price was not too different from his guess, then he could accept it.
He handed the flying sword in his hand to the shopkeeper. The latter took it and held it in his hand to carefully observe it. Then, he poured his true essence into it to check it.
Finally, the shopkeeper looked at Su Yi and said, “Little brother, the flying sword is indeed a mid-grade flying sword. It’s just that…”
An expert would be able to discern the quality of the goods right away. If Nie Ling were here, she would definitely know that this shopkeeper wanted to lower the price.
After all, as a businessman, money was the most important thing.
The shopkeeper’s eyes flashed with a bright light. The expression on his face was very conflicted. He looked like he wanted to, but also felt regretful.
The shopkeeper seemed to have thought for a long time before he continued to speak to Su Yi.
“Little brother, it’s not that our Thousand Treasures Pavilion can’t accept this flying sword. It’s just that you know that flying swords are a type of magic treasure that can only be used by those at the core formation realm.”
“How many core formation realm cultivators are there in Canglan City? This old man himself really wants to accept it, but we’re merchants, so we have to put profit first. If this flying sword were to rot in our hands…”
“So how much can you offer?” Having said that, if Su Yi still did not understand, he would really be an idiot.
Hearing this, the latter’s eyes lit up, and his handlebar mustache slightly raised into a smile. The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and stretched out three fingers.
“Three thousand?” Su Yi looked at the shopkeeper and asked in puzzlement.
“Little brother, don’t think that this price is too little. You have to know that if you want to sell a flying sword, you have to find a suitable buyer.”
“In other words, if we can’t find a buyer in Canglan City, our Thousand Treasures Pavilion will have to ship it to other cities to sell it. If we can’t find a buyer, it might end up in our hands.”
“Little brother, you don’t know the risks involved. If you’re not careful, you might lose the whole game. At that time, you won’t even be able to recover.”
The shopkeeper saw that Su Yi did not immediately reject him. Instead, he immediately explained a lot of untruths to Su Yi.
Although there were many problems that could be seen, at this moment, Su Yi no longer wanted to pay attention to the price. Moreover, to him, 3,000 low-grade spiritual stones was not much different from the expected price.
Moreover, this flying sword was like a free pick for him. Since he did not need it, it was not a bad choice to exchange it for 3,000 spiritual stones.
So he looked at the shopkeeper and said indifferently.
“Deal.”
