A stall on the fourth floor of the Earth Wasteland Building cost 10,000 low-grade spirit stones a day and had to be paid immediately. If one wanted to set up a stall the next day, they had to pay first.
In this way, it would put an end to those who wanted to fish in troubled waters.
Otherwise, if someone wanted to bring something not very precious to the fourth floor to set up a stall, wouldn't it be a mess? If he had to arrange for a specialist to check, it would increase the investment of personnel. It would be better to charge a fee to set up a checkpoint.
10,000 low-grade spirit stones was a lot for many swordsmen. They might not be able to earn 10,000 low-grade spirit stones in a few years. Therefore, asking them to take out 10,000 low-grade spirit stones to set up a stall on the fourth floor to sell something that was worth less than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones was something they really couldn't do.
Naturally, some unexpected situations were unavoidable. For example, a swordsman who didn't have many spirit stones saved up accidentally obtained a treasure but couldn't enter the fourth floor. He could only set up a stall on the second floor of the low-end market. In the end, he made a fortune, or someone else made a fortune, but it was very rare.
Most of the items Chu Mu took out to set up a stall were swords.
Among the high-grade swords obtained after killing the Five Beasts of the Desolate Border, other than the broken sword belonging to the One-eyed Dragon, the other four beasts had a total of six swords. Among them, Lin Zhonglang and Yun Zhonghe used two short swords of different shapes.
In addition, there were also swords obtained from the underground palace. Among the three high-grade swords, the Speed Sky Sword was chosen by Chu Mu. As for the other two, Chu Mu felt that they had no use for them. Currently, he needed a large amount of low-grade spirit stones, so he took them out to sell.
In addition to the nine high-grade swords, there were also two space bracelets. One was a low-grade space bracelets, obtained from the One-eyed Dragon, and the other was a mid-grade space bracelets, obtained from the Heaven Wasteland Earth Palace.
After Chu Mu saw the low, middle and high grade Sky Wasteland Pills in the Heavenly Pill Pavilion, he knew that even after refining the Sky Wasteland Pills with the Sky Wasteland Roots, it was still not enough for him to cultivate the Sky Wasteland Sword Body.
Thus, he needed even more Heaven Desolate Pills, which required even more Spirit Stones in order to purchase them. This forced him to come to the fourth floor of the Earth Desolate Building to set up a stall and sell these sword Spatial Bracelets.
Chu Mu's prices were all very fair. Because the one-eyed man's thin sword was damaged, its price was a bit higher than ordinary middle grade swords, ten thousand low grade spirit stones. As for the other four Vicious Borderlands' six upper grade swords, he gave them the same price, thirty thousand low grade spirit stones each.
As for the high-grade swords brought from the Heaven Wasteland Palace, they were even more outstanding. Therefore, Chu Mu set a price of 50,000 low-grade spirit stones. The price of the low-grade spatial bracelet was also 50,000, but the price of the mid-grade spatial bracelet was 500,000.
All in all, the swords and spatial bracelets Chu Mu took out to sell added up to eight hundred and forty thousand low grade spirit stones. It was definitely a large sum of money.
In fact, Chu Mu's harvest from the underground palace could be worth millions or even tens of millions. The things that he took out to sell were just the tip of the iceberg. Only the mid-grade spatial bracelet could be considered the big haul. The other big haul was another mid-grade spatial bracelet and a supreme grade sword. The most important part was the dozen ores used to forge the Sky Wasteland Sword. Each one of them was worth at least two hundred thousand low grade spirit stones.
As for the supreme grade spirit herbs, they were indeed not bad. The total value was only a few hundred thousand low grade spirit stones.
There were many swordsmen strolling around the market. The swordsmen on the fourth floor were at least at the Qi Transformation Realm. There were also many swordsmen at the Qi Sea Realm.
Not long after Chu Mu set up his stall, there were people who walked by to take a look. However, they did not have the intention to buy and turned to leave. Chu Mu was not in a hurry. What would come would eventually come.
Sure enough, after a while, another person came by. He looked at the high-grade swords and asked a few questions before taking out five low-grade bronze spirit stone cards and handing them to Chu Mu. Each spirit stone card was worth ten thousand low grade spirit stones. When the time came, they could be exchanged for low grade spirit stones from the person in charge of the fourth floor of the Earth Wasteland Building. They could also be used to pay for purchases.
After all, not every swordsman had a spatial bracelet. Those who had spatial bracelets were usually low grade and could not store many low grade spirit stones.
Therefore, spirit stone cards became a form of payment that replaced spirit stones. Spirit stone cards were divided into four grades and four colors. Low grade, middle grade, high grade, supreme grade, and the other four colors were Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, and Gold.
A Black Iron low-grade spirit stone card was worth one thousand low grade spirit stones. A Bronze low-grade spirit stone card was worth ten thousand low grade spirit stones. A Black Iron mid-grade spirit stone card was worth one thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and so on.
After the first buyer, it didn't take long for the second buyer to arrive.
Things like swords would never lack buyers. The second buyer bought two wolf-tooth short swords for a total of sixty thousand low grade spirit stones, which was equivalent to six low-grade bronze spirit stone cards.
Four hours later, even the one-eyed man's high-grade sword with a broken sword tip had been bought. The low-grade spatial bracelet had also been bought, leaving only the mid-grade spatial bracelet.
Chu Mu's income was three hundred and forty thousand low grade spirit stones. The mid-grade spatial bracelet was worth five hundred thousand low grade spirit stones. An average swordsman could not afford it, so Chu Mu was not in a hurry.
Time passed slowly. Chu Mu had sold a lot of swords just now, which made the other stall owners very jealous.
Although they were jealous and some even had bad intentions, they did not dare to make a move. There were Iron Blood Swordsmen here to maintain law and order. Unless they were looking for death.
At this moment, a kind-looking middle-aged man in a green robe walked over with his hands behind his back. He stopped in front of Chu Mu's stall and his gaze fell on the middle rank spatial bracelet. A glint flashed through his eyes.
"Little brother, this mid-grade spatial bracelet is worth three hundred thousand low grade spirit stones. I will take it." The kind-looking cyan-robed middle aged man didn't give Chu Mu the slightest chance to retort. He immediately took out three white silver low grade spirit stone cards from his low grade spatial bracelet and flicked them. The three cards flew in different trajectories and arcs in the air before finally landing in front of Chu Mu in a regular fan shape.
The green-robed middle aged man was at the Qi Hai Realm, and this move displayed an extraordinary control ability. This also meant that his swordsmanship was extraordinary. This caused Chu Mu to squint his eyes. He understood what kind of mentality was hidden under the seemingly friendly face of the opponent.
A show of strength!
"There are still two cards missing." Chu Mu was not intimidated. He glanced at the four low grade bronze spirit stone cards in front of him and said to the middle-aged man in a green robe.
The middle-aged man in a green robe's eyelids twitched. His eyes flashed and he snorted coldly, showing his dissatisfaction and anger. A mere Qi Transformation Realm swordsman who got a mid-grade spatial bracelet from god knows where dared to reject him.
He had also thought that Chu Mu might be someone from a large family or faction, but he quickly rejected this idea. If he really was someone from a large family or faction, he wouldn't have set up a stall here, let alone sell a middle grade spatial bracelet.
Firstly, it was because of his identity. Secondly, it was because of the preciousness of the middle-grade space wristband. Even he didn't have one until now. If someone could reach the point where they could ignore the middle-grade space wristband, they would definitely not care about hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.
Moreover, according to his experience, a swordsman who set up a stall in the Earth Wasteland Building would not have a powerful backer.
Therefore, the middle-aged man in a green robe felt that he had Zhou Donghuang in his hands unless the Jiang family intervened.
Obviously, Chu Mu did not know any Jiang family members. However, this did not mean that he would be defeated.
"My name is Chang Zizai." The middle-aged man in a green robe's right hand turned the thumb ring on his left hand as he stared at Chu Mu. His kind face turned cold as he slowly opened his mouth to speak. His voice was just loud enough for the people around him to hear.
Who was Chang Zizai?
Chu Mu did not know, but when he saw the expressions of the surrounding stall owners change, he knew that Chang Zizai's identity was not ordinary. A thought flashed through his mind. Chang Zizai's surname was Chang. Could he be from the Chang family in Border City?
If he was really from the Chang family, then he would be in big trouble.
However, even if Chang Zizai was from the Chang Family, Chu Mu couldn't sell the middle rank spatial wristband to him for 400 thousand low rank spirit stones, especially when the other party had threatened him from the start.
"I am Chang Zizai from the Chang family." The cyan robed middle aged man added. His face flashed with an expression of pride as a member of the Chang Family. Chu Mu had already guessed this, so he didn't show any shock. He only heard Chang Zizai continue, "300,000 low grade spirit stones to buy your middle grade spatial bracelet is already thinking highly of you. Sell it to me, and I'll remember you as a person. In the future, if you encounter any trouble in the desolate border region, when I'm in a good mood, perhaps I'll help you resolve it. But if you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then don't blame me for being rude. "
Maybe it was because he was sure that Chu Mu did not have any powerful backers, and he was from the Chang family. Plus, he had the Sword Qi of a Low Qi Hai warrior. That was why he dared to threaten Chu Mu so recklessly.
"Even if you take out another 300,000 low grade spirit stones, I will not sell it to you." Chu Mu hated being threatened and retorted without hesitation. So what if he was a Low Qi Hai warrior? So what if he was from the Chang family?
"Little brat, don't think that you are safe with the Iron Blood Sword Guards in the Border City. I, Chang Zizai, will say this. Unless you hide in the Border City for the rest of your life, I will kill you the moment you step out of the Border City." Chang Zizai said fiercely, full of killing intent. He waved his hand, and the sword aura was like silk. Three low-grade Silver Spirit Stone cards automatically flew into his hand and disappeared.
Chang Zizai snorted and glanced at Chu Mu's face with his cold eyes. He turned around and walked away, leaving behind a frightening figure.
The surrounding stall owners all looked at Chu Mu with pitiful gazes.
Indeed, in the Border City, even the Chang family had to follow the rules set by the Jiang family. Otherwise, the Jiang family would not show them any mercy just because they were one of the four big families in the Border City.
But as long as they did not fight in the Border City and only threatened, the Jiang family would not care. Once they left the Border City, the Jiang family would not care at all. It was not hard to imagine what would happen to this young swordsman who had offended Chang Zizai. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
