The night quickly passed and the sun rose, signaling the start of a new day. Red Rock City was as lively as ever.
However, there was a slight difference amidst the liveliness. Xiao Fan had entered the eyes of the various factions in the city. Many of them began to investigate Xiao Fan's background, especially the Sun Family and Chen Deguang. After Zhang Zongling failed to assassinate Xiao Fan last night, they didn't immediately retaliate. Instead, they fell into a short period of silence.
However, everyone knew that a bigger storm was brewing in that short period of silence. Once the time came, an even fiercer storm would sweep towards Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan didn't care about the hundred or so spies from the various factions in Red Rock City. He walked out of the Moon Reflecting Pavilion at a leisurely pace, then boarded a flying car and sped towards the center of the city.
This flying car was specially used by the VIPs of the Moon Reflection Pavilion. Shangguan Tong had told Xiao Fan before, so Xiao Fan requested this flying car from Shangguan Tong and drove towards the largest trading company in Red Rock City, the Golden Roc Trading Company!
From Zhang Zongling's memories, Xiao Fan learned that the Golden Roc Trading Company was one of the more special ones among the various factions in Red Rock City. This was because the Golden Roc Trading Company was an official trading company directly under the jurisdiction of the Watercloud Holy Land. Not only did it have all sorts of resources, but it was also the only bank in the Tianqi County.
There was no need to elaborate on its important position in the Watercloud Holy Land. Ever since the establishment of the Watercloud Holy Land, the Golden Roc Trading Company had been constantly plundering wealth for the Watercloud Holy Land and firmly supported the development of the Watercloud Holy Land.
The Golden Roc Trading Company in Red Rock City was one of the Golden Roc Trading Company's branches in the Watercloud Holy Land. Moreover, the Golden Roc Trading Company in Red Rock City was different from the other Golden Roc Trading Company branches in the Tianqi County.
This was because Red Rock City's population and economic standard were really poor compared to other cities. The profits from doing business were really low. Even if one worked hard for a year, they wouldn't be able to make much money. This wasn't something that the higher-ups of the Watercloud Holy Land would pay attention to.
Therefore, Golden Roc Trading Firm's headquarters only controlled the banking business of the Golden Roc Trading Firm's branch in Red Rock City. As for the other businesses, they cooperated with the local forces in Red Rock City. Other than retaining the right to supervise, the rest was left to the local forces of Red Rock City.
As such, everyone in Red Rock City had a common understanding that you had no choice but to do so. It was better to provoke other forces than to provoke this existence. Because if you provoke other forces, the enemy forces of the force you provoked might help you fight against this force and help you escape from danger. If you offend the Golden Roc Trading Firm, it would be tantamount to offending the interests of almost all forces in Red Rock City. You would suffer the collective retaliation of the entire city.
At that time, even the Zenith Heaven Immortal wouldn't be able to save you!
Xiao Fan ignored this. He didn't care about it at all. Then, he sat on the flying car and went to the Golden Roc Trading Company to look for the treasures he needed.
Not long after, Xiao Fan arrived in front of the Golden Roc Trading Firm and got out of the car. Then, he walked straight in.
The Golden Roc Trading Firm had many large buildings in Red Rock City. Every building was in charge of different businesses. The building that Xiao Fan came to was the largest one. It was in charge of the most profitable businesses, such as treasures, demonic beasts, and all sorts of cultivation resources that cultivators needed.
"Greetings, Sir. How may I be of service?" A very round fatty with a big belly walked over and spoke to Xiao Fan enthusiastically with a big smile on his face. "Thank you, Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan glanced at this fat man. This fat man wasn't a mortal. He was also a cultivator. However, his realms were Houtian, Xiantian, and Life. The Death Realm was the last of the four realms. In the Central imperial realm, everyone agreed that as long as you didn't enter the Nirvana Realm, you wouldn't be considered a true cultivator. You would still be a mortal.
The Nirvana Realm was the most important dividing line between cultivators and mortals. Once one entered the Nirvana Realm, not only would one's strength increase exponentially, one's lifespan would also increase greatly. It wouldn't be like the Houtian, Xiantian, Life, and Death Realms where one only had a mere hundred years of lifespan.
Therefore, if this fatty had been on Earth, he would naturally have been treated with respect and would have been a well-known figure. However, in the Central Emperor Realm, he was like an ordinary blade of grass on the side of the road. There was nothing special about him at all. Moreover, in order to make a living, he could only do such menial work as serving others.
"I need these things!" Xiao Fan extended his hand and handed over a piece of paper. On the paper were the various treasures that he needed, as well as their respective quantities.
The fat man immediately took the paper. He glanced at it briefly, and the smile on his face became even more brilliant. Because according to the total value of the things that Xiao Fan needed, Xiao Fan was a big customer. After completing today's business, his commission was not a small amount.
With today's commission, he should be able to gather enough money to buy the cultivation method that he had been longing for. He would be able to step into the Nirvana Realm and become a true cultivator. It was just a matter of time!
"Please follow me!" The fat man politely said to Xiao Fan. Then, Xiao Fan nodded and followed the fat man.
The fat man brought Xiao Fan to a room with a very elegant environment. The room was filled with the fragrance of tea. It lingered in the air, making people feel refreshed.
"Please rest for a while. I will bring the things that you need one by one for you to take a look!" The fat man's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement. He said to Xiao Fan with a face full of smiles.
In the Central imperial realm, before a cultivator made a transaction, it was essential to first take a look. For example, if I wanted a medicinal herb, how would I know if the herb you gave me was the one I needed? What if you used shoddy herbs as good ones? What if you used similar inferior herbs to replace the precious herbs that I needed?
Some cultivators who were cautious and embarrassed would even carefully identify each herb. Then, according to the quality of each herb, they would compete with the seller until they were red in the face.
Although Xiao Fan didn't care much about the cost of money, he also didn't have the interest to be a spendthrift. Before making a purchase, taking a look was also indispensable.
"Okay!"
