Chapter 010: Wanbao Building, The First Bucket of Gold

This time, a total of five medium-grade magical artifacts, five low-grade magical artifacts, and two remaining second-level linked talismans (one Ice Spike Talisman and one Fireball Talisman), in addition to a storage ring and a pile of materials were acquired

"Selling magical artifacts?" The young girl was slightly taken aback. Most of the people who come to Wanbao Tower are there to purchase magical treasures, so it is quite rare to encounter someone looking to sell. However, her strong professional demeanor prevented her from showing any particular expression. Instead, she continued to smile and said, "Oh, I see. Please follow me."

Lin Feng let out a quiet sigh, but he was not particularly disappointed, for he knew that he would soon be 'wealthy'...

With great caution, Lin Feng took a stroll through the free market, purchasing only the materials needed for repairs. Soon, he returned home "fully loaded".

This small-sized storage ring, if we were to classify its grade, can only be considered a medium-quality magical artifact. However, its price is even higher than that of ordinary top-quality magical artifacts—of course, this refers to a brand new one. As for the one currently in Lin Feng's hand, it can be said to be worthless, as it is on the verge of breaking, and the storage space inside has become unstable.

Twenty-five inferior spirit stones, all completely consumed

Qi Minghe smiled faintly and instructed the young girl beside him, who responded with an acknowledgment and turned to leave

He then looked at the other magical artifacts, even more astonished, and with a puzzled expression, he looked at Lin Feng and said: "Are you sure you want to sell all of these brand new magical artifacts?"

Wanbao Building is located on the most bustling street in the city center. It is an independent three-story pavilion, exuding grandeur and majesty. It is rumored that within Wanbao Building, there are not only magical artifacts and treasures, but even spiritual tools.

Upon returning home, Lin Feng set down all the items he had purchased, changed into a different outfit, and then went to the free market

The reason it is said that wwwhetushu.com is merely a rumor is that Lin Feng has never been there, so he does not know the truth. However, even if there are spiritual artifacts, it is estimated that very few people in Qingyun City can afford them. At most, it serves merely as a gimmick, because the name "Wanbao Building" is not only known in Qingyun City; it is a renowned treasure merchant association throughout the entire Donglong Continent. The Wanbao Building in Qingyun City is just a small "branch".

Inside the package are nine pieces of magical artifacts that have already been repaired. What he needs to do now, of course, is to sell them in exchange for spirit stones

Therefore, if it is a substance ring that can break at any moment, who would dare to use it

It is unclear how this middle-aged man came to possess such a ring that is already considered "scrapped," but he clearly seems to be in need of spirit stones. Seeing that Lin Feng appeared somewhat interested, he immediately said: "What do you think? Do you want this ring? Just two low-grade spirit stones will do!"

Just now, Lin Feng's excitement was evident to Qi Minghe, who couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart. He secretly thought that young people are indeed like this; no matter how much they try to appear composed, their self-control ultimately proves to be lacking. To be so stirred by just over one hundred low-grade spirit stones is quite remarkable. At this moment, upon hearing Lin Feng's words, he was momentarily taken aback.

"Excuse me... huh?" Lin Feng was about to refuse again, but when he saw the item in the other person's hand, he suddenly froze, then asked in surprise, "Is this... a storage ring?!"

He reached out to pick up a medium-grade magical dagger, examined it for a while, and exclaimed, "Is it really brand new?"

Lin Feng fell silent for a moment, not out of hesitation, but in an effort to restrain the excitement within his heart. After a while, he smiled slightly and said: "Hehe, what you said is also true. The Storage Ring is indeed a treasure that even ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators do not possess. Being able to 'collect' one is quite remarkable... Alright! I will buy it!"

The middle-aged man was the manager of the first floor hall of Wanbao Building, named Qi Minghe. He was originally looking down at a pale golden token in his hand when he heard the words and raised his head, revealing a hint of surprise in his eyes. He looked at Lin Feng and said, "What magical item do you wish to sell, young brother?"

One hundred and thirty low-grade spirit stones! Based on his previous salary at the Treasure Pavilion, it would take several years of work to earn this amount! ... And now, it has come so easily into his hands ...

Lin Feng looked at the man with some suspicion and asked

Unexpectedly, he had used two low-grade spirit stones, yet Lin Feng was overjoyed. He immediately turned around and left the free market, quickly returning to his home

In his view, this is truly strange; this brand-new magical artifact appears to be just like a newly purchased item. Why would this person want to sell it? Moreover, how could a novice in the Qi Refining stage possess so many magical artifacts?

Subsequently, Lin Feng attempted to infuse his vital energy into the storage ring. Immediately, a cubic space with an approximate edge length of two meters appeared in his mind. However, at the moment he infused his vital energy, he also sensed that the space within the storage ring began to shake unsteadily, as if it were on the verge of collapsing.

In the end, the last four spirit stones remained, but he had not managed to purchase all the necessary repair materials. For instance, he was unable to acquire the 'Level 1 Ice Grass Juice' needed to repair the Ice Spike Talisman and the 'Level 2 Thunder Bee Stinger' required for one of the mid-grade magical artifacts. This was still a result of his fortunate encounter at a stall where he found various required materials and received a 'wholesale discount'; otherwise, the materials he could have purchased would have been even fewer.

Lin Feng pondered for a moment and nodded, saying: "Alright, m.hetushu.com will be 130 low-grade spirit stones."

Ultimately, it still comes down to insufficient funds

Equipment Durability: 95%

Qi Minghe's gaze flickered slightly as he looked at Lin Feng with great interest, yet he did not inquire further. Instead, he smiled and said, "Hehe, since you have said so, then I shall take a look..."

However, it seems that all the treasures on this floor are of the magical artifact level. It appears that the second floor should contain precious artifacts, right? What about the third floor? Will there be spiritual artifacts?

Lin Feng placed the package in his hand on the counter, unwrapping it to reveal nine magical artifacts, and said: "I have some low-grade and mid-grade magical artifacts that I would like to sell, and I kindly ask Manager Qi to take a look."

It can no longer be used? Lin Feng was slightly taken aback as he took the storage ring, while simultaneously a thought crossed his mind

After speaking, he took out two low-grade spirit stones and handed them over. The middle-aged man looked pleased, accepted the spirit stones, and then took his leave.

The following morning

This is the 'first bucket of gold' that Lin Feng used to achieve wealth.

From this shopkeeper Qi, Lin Feng could sense a faint pressure of authority, likely indicating that he was at least a cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment

Welcome, how may I assist you today

... ...

Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng excitedly squeezed his fingers

"Not bad, it's the Nawu Ring!" The man nodded and said, "Although it is about to break and cannot be used anymore, it still has great collectible value, doesn't it?"

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Yes, I will sell them all. Manager Qi, please see how many spirit stones you can sell them for. If the price is suitable, I will sell them all."

Materials required for repair: Level 1 Xumi Sand

After a moment of excitement, Lin Feng finally remembered that he had other matters to attend to. He composed himself and said to Qi Minghe, "By the way, Manager Qi, I would like to purchase a set of first-grade Xumi sand. I wonder if your esteemed shop has any available"

Lin Feng had already packed his belongings early and then walked out of the house carrying a seemingly heavy large package

Hehe, refreshing! Xiaodie, please go and get some spirit stones for this young brother, and also give him a spirit stone pouch as a gift.

If the Storage Ring is shattered, the storage space within will collapse, and everything inside will be drawn into the void. Even cultivators at the Great Ascension stage would be unable to retrieve it

Standing in front of the entrance of Wanbao Building and glancing around, Lin Feng composed himself and strode in with his head held high

The spirit stone pouch is a type of spatial magical artifact specifically designed for storing spirit stones. It is much simpler than a spatial ring and can only hold spirit stones. Even a low-grade spirit stone pouch requires about ten low-quality spirit stones. Lin Feng originally intended to purchase one, but unexpectedly, Manager Qi was so generous as to give him one directly

Walking onto the street, Lin Feng headed directly towards the center of Qingyun City. His destination was the largest talisman shop in the city—Wanbao Building

The reason for choosing to go there is that Lin Feng does not want the hassle of selling items one by one. Instead, he prefers to 'bundle' them and sell them to the shop. Although this will result in a slightly lower profit, it is much more convenient. Additionally, the 'Xumi sand' required for repairing the storage ring must also be purchased at the Wanbao Building.

What do you need the Sumeru Sand for?

Lin Feng followed the young girl into the store, while curiously looking around. Upon this glance, he immediately felt that the Treasure Pavilion where he originally worked was pitifully small, not even comparable to one-tenth of the first-floor hall of the Wanbao Building. In the hall, rows of display cabinets were arranged, showcasing countless various magical treasures. A uniform line of graceful young girls stood behind the counters with smiles, waiting for customers to arrive.

The young girl led Lin Feng to a luxurious counter on the side of the hall, and said to a refined middle-aged man behind the counter and the display table, "Manager Qi, this young gentleman wishes to sell some magical artifacts."

Lin Feng felt delighted and expressed his gratitude, saying: "In that case, thank you very much, Manager Qi"

Let us begin work!

... ...

... ...

As soon as I walked in, a clear and melodious voice rang in my ears. I saw a young girl with a delicate appearance smiling as she approached, asking in a crisp tone.

Furthermore, the 'Xumi Sand' required for repairing the artifact was also not purchased, as this item is simply not available in the free market

Close the doors and windows (the gate that was previously damaged by Han Tie has been repaired), and Lin Feng eagerly began to take stock of the purchased items

Oh? Seeing Lin Feng take out so many magical artifacts, Qi Minghe was slightly taken aback, but he was not overly surprised. It was evident that he did not regard low-grade and mid-grade artifacts highly. However, after he took a closer look at those artifacts, a look of astonishment gradually appeared in his eyes

When he took the spirit stone pouch in his hand, feeling as light as a feather, Lin Feng could not help but feel a heavy weight in his heart. No matter how much he tried to restrain himself, a hint of excitement could not help but appear on his face.

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "Hello, I am here to sell a few magical artifacts, and I also want to buy some items. May I ask where we can discuss this?"

... ... ''

These nine magical artifacts, if sold individually, could fetch a total of over 160 low-grade spirit stones. However, the other party must also make a profit from the bulk purchase, so 130 low-grade spirit stones would be within Lin Feng's acceptable range

He began to take out the magical artifacts from the package one by one, but each one was merely glanced at before being set aside. Soon, after examining all nine artifacts, he said to Lin Feng: "Four are medium-grade artifacts, and five are low-grade artifacts, all of which are rare and brand new. I will give you a total of 130 low-grade spirit stones, what do you think?"
