"Here are the food and liquor that Young Master ordered."
After a while, the saloon owner appeared along with the waiters of the restaurant, who brought a large amount of liquor and food to Zheng-Fu's table. Then they walked back into the shop immediately.
Wow!!!
"It smells so sweet, this Moonlight white liquor!" Zheng-Fu exclaimed with delight and joy as he inhaled the scent of Moonlight white liquor placed on the table.
But in fact, he only examined it by smelling whether there was any poison or impurities. But after inhaling the scent, his body felt an unspeakable freshness, as if he were on a fluffy white cloud.
Sniff
Aaaah!!!
"That's true, Brother Zheng-Fu. The liquor here smells great. Just the smell made my saliva flow!" Hai-Dong did not hesitate to try and smell the liquor inside the jar placed in front of him. And as soon as he smelled it, he felt the same as Zheng-Fu, only his expression was more excited.
"Alright, let's start it out!"
Hai-Dong picked up a jar of liquor and held it out in front of Zheng-Fu and said, "Today, if we are not drunk, we won't give up."
As for Zheng-Fu, he also lifted a jar of liquor and was about to reach his mouth, reaching out to clink Hai-Dong's jar before saying, "Good! If we aren't drunk, we won't quit," finished speaking, both of them lifted the jars of liquor and drank together frantically.
Gulp, gulp, gulp!!!
Aaaah!!
Aaaah!!
The joyful sighs of both of them were released loudly after lifting the jar and drinking all the liquor. Many people passing by were compelled to stop and look because of their voices, and as they entered the saloon, the smell of the liquor made them unable to resist, ordering some to drink.
Before long, the once lonely saloon became filled with people again, until the seats were not enough. Most of the customers came because they wanted to drink liquor that had a sweet smell and taste, which they knew from the spreading news.
As for Zheng-Fu and Hai-Dong, they now drank so much white and black liquor that the jars piled up so high. Hai-Dong began to feel that he could not take it anymore, so Zheng-Fu stopped ordering and paid for food and liquor. But when he called the saloon owner to charge the bill, the saloon owner did not charge him a single coin and even thanked him.
Because Zheng-Fu and Hai-Dong came today, his saloon, which had been about to permanently close because there were too few customers coming to the store, had come alive again. And this happening also helped to erase the bad rumors that had been circulating as well. So how could the saloon owner not thank him?
Zheng-Fu then took Hai-Dong back out of that saloon and headed back to the port to board Hai-Dong's ship to rest. Since they did not stay in any tavern, they had to come back to the ship. One more thing, since Zheng-Fu himself did not know which tavern was good, he chose to return to the ship.
In addition, Zheng-Fu still wanted to walk around the port city a little more, so he took Hai-Dong to stay on a ship that was protected by both guards and spells. After taking Hai-Dong to rest, he returned to the city again and asked for directions to the market to look at the goods of this city.
"Uncle, do you know where this city's marketplace for martial arts cultivators is?"
"Marketplace for martial arts cultivators? Young man, there isn't a marketplace in this city to sell stuff like that. There is only the Chamber of Commerce of Heavenly Trade Association that sells them. As for that place, walk straight for about two lis, and you've arrived," a middle-aged man walking on the street turned to Zheng-Fu and answered him.
"The Heavenly Trade Association!?"
Zheng-Fu was very familiar with the name of this trade association, and thinking about it, Zheng-Fu figured out where he had heard it from before smiling and addressing the middle-aged man and immediately walking away, following the direction that the middle-aged man said.
He soon arrived in front of a large building that was five stories tall. In front of this building was a large sign that read 'Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch' that hung prominently. This building was huge and was packed with people.
On the first floor of the Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch...
"Hello, Young Master. Welcome to the Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch, sir. What kind of merchandise would you like to buy?" As soon as Zheng-Fu walked into the first floor of the Heavenly Trade Association, a beautiful white and smooth-skinned young woman with a good figure walked in to greet him. She smiled as she politely asked Zheng-Fu's wishes.
"I've just been here for the first time. I don't know if the beautiful lady can explain to me what things sell here. And how are the departments organized?" Zheng-Fu still did not know what he was going to buy, so he asked the young woman to explain what kind of goods were there.
"Yes, sir. Our Heavenly Trade Association has almost everything. Whether it's weapons, armor, elixirs, ore materials, medicinal plants, textbooks, or whatever the customer wants, our Trade Association will try to get it for you."
"And our Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch, is divided into five floors. The first floor has general products that can be bought and are not very expensive. As for the second floor, there are items with a bit higher value, and they are at higher prices as well.
The third floor belongs to the spell talisman created by master sorcerers and above, and the high-level weapons and armor with spell patterns inscribed or monster spirit merging."
"As for the fourth floor, there are items that are of a higher level than the ones on the third floor, such as the ancient magic weapons, Immortal to Immortal Soul stage herbs, and rare ores of ten years or more, including great materials such as parts of the high-class Immortal Soul stage monster beasts."
"The fifth floor is the address of the manager of the Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch, sir. But this floor is not allowed to go up except by authorized personnel," the young woman explained to Zheng-Fu intently and completely.
"Thank you for the good advice. And this is my reward for this beautiful lady giving me advice," Zheng-Fu thanked the young woman and handed her a bag of money, which contained ten thousand coins inside. But the woman refused and said it was her duty.
Seeing the young woman's strong refusal, Zheng-Fu did not force her any further and kept the bag before walking up to the second floor to look at the goods. Because he had already noticed that the contents of this floor were extremely low-level, he ignored them and immediately went up to the second floor, followed by the young woman who introduced the goods to him.
The second floor of the Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch...
"What are these weapons? Did you say that the items on this floor are middle-grade to high-grade items with the spell pattern cast? Why are they just ordinary weapons?" A young man's roar rang out as he picked up a longsword and looked at it.
"Master, not all items on this second floor have the spell pattern cast on them. Most of them are just ordinary high-level weapons," the woman who guided the young man said with a worried look.
Tsk!!!
"I told you I needed a high-level weapon with a spell pattern cast on it. Why did you bring me to this floor? Why don't you take me to the floor that has it?" the young man said angrily to the woman who had led him to this floor instead of leading him to the floor that had what he needed.
"To go up to the third floor, you have to show us the amount of money that is enough to buy things, sir. But the money you show us is not enough, so..."
"What? What crazy rule is this? The reason I didn't show the money was that I didn't want anyone to know. Do you think I don't have the money to buy them!?" the young man became even angrier when he heard what the woman had said. However, this was a rule that everyone knew well, even Zheng-Fu.
Whoooooosh!!!
Suddenly, a middle-aged man's figure soared out from the crowd towards him and held his shoulder tightly, releasing a slight pressure that caused the young man to remain silent in fear. Then the middle-aged man spoke up.
"This master has a problem with the rules of our Heavenly Trade Association, Reversed Stream Port City Branch, doesn't he?" said the middle-aged man, with a formidable look staring at him.
"No… no… not at all!!!"
Under the pressure of the middle-aged man, the young man's face suddenly changed. Numerous beads of sweat ran down his forehead, and now he did not dare to say or do anything for fear that the middle-aged man would hurt him.
"Then that's good. Master, you can continue to see and purchase the goods you want," finished speaking, the middle-aged man turned around and walked out. But as he walked past Zheng-Fu, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zheng-Fu, giving him a slight smile before continuing to go.
"Does he have any feelings for me to smile at me like that? Ouch! I got goosebumps!" Zheng-Fu murmured with a tingling sensation when he saw the middle-aged man's smile just now.
'The vice-manager? Then why did he smile at this master? Could this master be an important person?' the young woman standing behind Zheng-Fu thought to herself suspiciously. She also saw the middle-aged man's smile as well, causing her to feel that this young man she was advising was definitely not an ordinary person.
"May I ask if there is anything that Master is interested in on this floor?" asked the young woman, so as not to waste any more time.
Umm...
"I would like to take a look at the martial arts skills and techniques textbooks. Are there any on this floor?" Zheng-Fu did not know what to look for, so he asked about the martial arts skills and techniques textbooks.
"Yes, we have. There are many martial arts textbooks on this second floor. We have them from the advanced step of low-level skills to the medium step of intermediate-level skills, but the higher-level skills are on the third and fourth floors," the woman replied, explaining to Zheng-Fu the martial arts skills and techniques textbooks available at this association.
She then led Zheng-Fu to the shelf that had been arranged with martial arts textbooks in one corner of the second floor.
