In the morning, when Han Xiaosheng got up, he found that Liu Daneng was already waiting for him.
After a hurried breakfast, the enthusiastic Liu Daneng took Han Xiaosheng around the town, letting him get familiar with several important places in the town, and then let him move around freely before going to work in the martial arts gym.
Watching Liu Daneng leave, Han Xiaosheng returned to Liu Daneng's house and put his down jacket into a hiking bag. He carried the hiking bag to the town, ready to test the value of the things in the bag to see if he could exchange it for the cultivation techniques and resources. , and even wanted to practice under the guidance of Liu Daneng.
When I came to a shop, there was a conspicuous signboard "Baibao Pavilion" hanging above the shop.
Liu Daneng said that this is the branch of a large chamber of commerce called Zhoutian Chamber of Commerce in Longmen Town. It also has a branch, ranking among the top ten chambers of commerce in the Southern Continent.
Han Xiaosheng thought about his words and walked into the store.
This is a building similar to a Chinese courtyard house. It is the most luxurious house in the town except the town government.
Baibao Pavilion is a three-entry courtyard house. The house is very large and has many rooms. Each room has a sign.
Han Xiaosheng glanced at it and saw names such as exercises, magic weapons, and materials. There were too many rooms, so he didn't rush to distinguish them, so he came to the reception counter.
There were two people in front of the counter. One was a slender young girl with a delicate face, and the other was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties or fifties. The two were talking.
Seeing Han Xiaosheng's arrival, the middle-aged man lowered his head and flipped through the book in his hand. The young girl smiled professionally and greeted Han Xiaosheng.
"Welcome! Sir, I am Feng Xiuzhen, the receptionist here. How can I help you?"
Han Xiaosheng looked at the furnishings on the counter. There was a wall cabinet inside the counter. The cabinet was divided into many grids and contained many items.
Han Xiaosheng pointed to the grid marked "Gong Technique" and said to the young girl:
"What kind of technique is that?"
"That's a wood-based technique, and its grade is top-grade mortal level."
"How to sell it?"
"2 gold coins"
"Just gold coins?"
"Other items can also be used. After appraisal and evaluation, if the value is equal, they can be traded."
Han Xiaosheng pondered for a moment, pointed to a grid and said:
"What is that? What's the price?"
The young girl looked back and replied:
"That's ginseng. Look at the year. It's 50 years old. It was dug up before it grew well. It's worth 100 gold coins."
"Is there such a big difference in price between Qigong method and ginseng?"
The young girl saw that he didn't understand the market, so she patiently explained:
"High-level skills are rare, so of course they are very valuable, but many people have ordinary-level skills. They are commercially available, so they are not too expensive. As for why ginseng is expensive, of course it is because there are less and less wild ginseng, and things are rare. It’s expensive.”
Han Xiao said "Oh", opened his backpack, took out a handful of candies, and asked:
"See how these candies are. You can try one."
The young girl's eyes lit up. When she peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in her mouth, her little mouth twitched a few times, feeling a little excited:
"These candies are good and the packaging is beautiful. Do you want to sell them?"
Han Xiaosheng was happy in his heart, but remained calm on the surface:
"Then it depends on what price you offer. If the price is not right, I will sell it to someone else."
The young girl chatted with the middle-aged man next to her for a while, raised her head and said to Han Xiaosheng:
"10 copper coins per catty"
Han Xiaosheng did the math and found that the 10 kilograms of candy he brought only cost 100 copper coins, equivalent to 1 silver coin. It seemed not very useful.
But according to what he learned from Liu Daneng, Liu Daneng was a teacher in a martial arts school and his salary was only 50 copper coins a month. The price offered by Baibao Pavilion was already very good. It was probably the first time he had seen this kind of candy. It is sold as a high-end product, so it can have such a high price.
Han Xiaosheng simply took out all the food in his backpack, including sandwich biscuits, bread, cakes, instant noodles, ham sausages, and chewing gum.
The counter, which was not wide to begin with, was suddenly full, shocking the young girl. The middle-aged man stopped reading and stood up to help look through the food.
After reading for a while, the two discussed in a low voice, and the young girl said:
"These foods look good. I'll give you 20 silver coins in total."
Han Xiaosheng handed over the down jacket in his hand and explained to the two of them its function of keeping warm and keeping out the cold. At last count, it was worth 5 silver coins.
Han Xiaosheng was a little helpless. Even if he sold all the food and down jackets, he only had 25 silver coins. This amount of money was not enough to buy ordinary-level skills. What should I do?
Selling food and down jackets already exposes many unusual secrets, so why sell anything else? Will it bring danger?
Thinking about the fact that I have always traveled to the valley world before, but this time I arrived in this world. I don’t know where I will travel next time. After I go back this time, I don’t know when I can come to this world again. This opportunity must not be missed, and the time will never come again.
Han Xiaosheng gritted his teeth and put away all the food on the table. Regardless of the girl's straight eyes, he took out the military telescope from his hiking bag and said to the young girl:
"This thing is my treasure. It's too precious. I won't sell it if the valuation is too low."
The young girl and the middle-aged man discussed it for a long time, but they didn't understand it. They looked at Han Xiaosheng and didn't say anything, so the middle-aged man pressed a button.
Soon, an old man with gray hair walked out of a room with a sign of "Appraisal of Treasures". The old man was unkempt and introduced himself as Feng. The middle-aged people called him "Mr. Feng", and Feng Xiuzhen called him grandpa. The Pavilion Master of the Bao Pavilion branch.
Seeing the telescope, Mr. Feng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he picked up the telescope to observe.
As expected from the treasure appraisal room, Mr. Feng quickly discovered how to use the telescope. He looked around with the telescope, then ran to the door to look outside, shouting:
"Oh, it's so clear. Widow Liu is not blocking her from taking a shower. Look at her breasts and her butt. They are bulging forward and backward..."
Han Xiaosheng was a middle-aged man himself and was immune to these things. He just smiled slightly. The young girl's face turned red and she was a little embarrassed. The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed and coughed.
Seeing that Mr. Feng was still describing what he saw, the young girl's expression was almost unbearable, and Han Xiaosheng spoke:
"Mr. Feng, how much do you think this telescope is worth?"
"Telescope? What a good name. It's very appropriate. With it, you can see far away. You can use it to see more scenery in the future."
Mr. Feng came back to his senses, a little excited, looked at the young girl's red apple face, understood, straightened his face, and gave his evaluation.
"This telescope is good. It is a must-have for home, travel and viewing the scenery."
Han Xiaosheng added:
"Not only can you watch the scenery, but you can also use it to observe the enemy during a battle. You can also use it to predict enemy aircraft when fighting with others. Do you think it is worth the money?"
Mr. Feng nodded vigorously:
"Not bad, so I gave a suggested price of 25 gold coins. Many people should be willing to buy it."
Han Xiaosheng quickly climbed up the pole:
"Mr. Feng, if the military knew about it or sent it to auction, would it be worth more?"
Mr. Feng shook his head, "This thing is good, but it can be easily copied by weapon refiners. 25 gold coins is already a conscientious purchase price. You can ask other chambers of commerce. There will be no higher bids."
Han Xiaosheng had no choice but to give up and ask other questions:
"Mr. Feng, I would like to use this telescope in exchange for a practice book. Can you think of it?"
Looking at Han Xiaosheng, Mr. Feng asked him what attributes he needed.
Han Xiaosheng didn't know much about the market situation of Kung Fu and was a little hesitant.
Seeing that he couldn't answer, Mr. Feng was a little speechless. He thought he didn't know his cultivation qualifications, so he said:
"It just so happens that our Baibao Pavilion has a facility that tests physical attributes and cultivation talents, and we can help you test them for free.
But I think you are a bit old. If you want to practice cultivation on your own, don’t waste your efforts. You are already past the best age for cultivation, and your cultivation will not yield any results. "
Han Xiaosheng felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this, but still insisted on getting tested.
