While they were talking, several manservants had finished counting the things brought by Lin Yi. After making a list, Chen Heihu quickly gave Lin Yi a fair price of 800 spiritual jade.
Lin Yi didn't have any objections to this and immediately nodded in agreement. However, what surprised him was that Chen Heihu could actually swipe a spirit jade card here. Looking at the outer and middle streets of the market, he was the only one who could do this.
Spiritual jade card was a rare high-end item. Even a master at the peak of the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm like Nan Tianyong couldn't get it, which showed how rare it was.
As for the merchants, there were even fewer who had the qualification to swipe the spiritual jade card. On the north island, except for the giants of the Business Alliance like the Hong Chamber of Commerce, ordinary merchants didn't have this qualification.
From this, it could be seen that Chen Heihu was far from as simple as he looked. His connections were wild enough, and his background must be strong enough. If one thought that he was just an ordinary small merchant in the outer street and looked down on him, he might suffer a big loss.
Lin Yi suddenly changed his mind and said, "Brother Chen Heihu, besides the business of spiritual beasts, do you also dabble in spiritual medicine?"
Chen Heihu was slightly stunned and then replied, "Of course, spiritual beasts and spiritual medicine are not separated. However, my focus has always been on the spiritual beasts and I don't pay much attention to the spiritual medicine. Lynn Brothers, why do you ask this?"
"I've been looking for some elixirs recently, but they're quite rare. It's hard to buy them normally, and I don't come to the market often, so I wanted to see if you could help me." Lin Yi said.
He originally planned to ask Hong Zhong to search for the Heart-Devouring Grass, but now after seeing Chen Heihu's ability, he couldn't help but change his mind. With this guy's connections, he might be able to get the Heart-Devouring Grass.
"Well …" Chen Heihu habitually stroked his beard and nodded. "Okay, Lynn Brothers, write down the spiritual medicine you need. I'll keep an eye on it for you. If I find it, I'll take it for you. How about that?"
"I can't thank you enough. We can discuss the price. I won't let you lose out." Lin Yi's heart leapt with joy. Immediately after, he wrote down a list of spiritual medicines on a piece of paper. Other than the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass, there were also a few other rare spiritual medicines. Naturally, this was to fool others.
Chen Heihu roughly glanced at it. There was some curiosity in his eyes, but he tactfully did not ask any questions. He directly said, "Brother Lin, don't worry. Although these elixirs are indeed difficult to find, with my connections, it shouldn't be a big problem. Just wait for the good news."
The tone of these words wasn't small, but when it came to Chen Heihu, it didn't seem to be the slightest bit out of place. It was as if he was born with such remarkable abilities. Even Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh to himself. This fellow was an extraordinary person!
After he was done, Lin Yi walked out of Chen Heihu's shop and headed towards the inner street. Fishing required a wide net. Even if he thought highly of Chen Heihu, he couldn't put all his hopes on one person. He still had to make a trip to the Hong Chamber of Commerce.
Anyway, the Foundation Establishment Pill was useful throughout the Foundation Establishment realm. Hence, the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass was beneficial to Lin Yi. He didn't have to worry about not being able to digest it.
On the way to the inner street, Lin Yi didn't forget to pay attention to the small shops in the outer street and the middle street. These places rarely had any high-end goods. However, if he paid attention, he might have a chance to pick up some leftover goods.
Some people who were knowledgeable and had outstanding eyesight even relied on picking up leftover goods for a living. For example, Yu Zhe had done this kind of business in the past.
Although Lin Yi wasn't like Yu Zhe who stayed in the library for three years and knew all kinds of rare treasures, he still had a ghostly thing on him!
No matter how many ancient books Yu Zhe read, in terms of knowledge, even ten of them couldn't compare to one ghostly thing.
There were so many shops in the market. If he really paid attention, he would always be able to pick up some leftover goods. As expected, Lin Yi very quickly discovered an unexpected surprise in an inconspicuous roadside stall.
It was a pot of blue grass. Its name was Blue Glow Grass. It was considered a relatively common spiritual medicine. However, what Lin Yi was really interested in was not this pot of Blue Glow Grass, but the pile of black mud in the pot that no one would pay attention to.
If it wasn't for the ghostly thing's reminder, Lin Yi wouldn't have noticed it. Compared to the ordinary Blue Glow Grass, the origin of this pile of black mud was quite extraordinary.
Its name was Pure Land. According to the ghostly thing, this kind of soil only appeared in ancient times. It was a kind of magical soil that could nurture life and spirituality. Due to the changes in the environment, Pure Land gradually became a legend after ancient times. Nowadays, no matter how much money one spent, one might not be able to find it.
What made Lin Yi excited was that if Pure Land was used in forging weapons, it could increase the spirituality of weapons. The function of this spirituality could only be understood and not explained.
It would not increase the attack power, nor would it increase other special abilities. There might not be any obvious visual effect in a short period of time, but the spirituality of weapons was a mysterious thing. After a long time, it would slowly show its magic.
A weapon with spirituality and a weapon without spirituality were on two completely different levels.
Without spirituality, it would forever be a dead object. Once it developed spirituality, it meant that there were infinite possibilities. Even the legendary growth weapons were no longer out of reach.
First, there was the Ten Thousand Year Tree Crystal, and then there was the Ancient Pure Land. As such, Lin Yi was even more interested in the meeting with the King of Junk. Just thinking about how the steel staff would be upgraded was enough to make him look forward to it.
However, the most important thing now was to buy the Pure Land.
"Boss, how much is this pot of Blue Glow Grass?" Lin Yi asked without batting an eyelid.
When it came to picking up scraps, even if it was to stand out and make a fortune, even though he knew that the Ancient Pure Land was a treasure that could only be found by luck, he definitely couldn't show any strange expression on his face.
This sort of thing happened all the time in the market, and almost every stall owner was extremely sensitive to it. If Lin Yi were to reveal even the slightest flaw, it'd cause a lot of trouble.
The stall owner looked up and down at Lin Yi. He vaguely felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember him clearly. After all, in the past two months, the Southern Heaven Gate and Yu Zhe had gradually quieted down. Even if he had seen Lin Yi's portrait before, his impression of him was already blurred.
"Seven pieces of Spiritual Jade!" The stall owner was too lazy to think any further. He immediately called out the price.
