"It is so," Den nodded at her. Then he turned to look at Zheng-Fu and said, "Big Brother Fu-Zheng, would you like to walk around?" The young man thought that Zheng-Fu would want to walk around, so he asked.
"Of course, I'd like to take a walk. And I must also bother the beautiful Miss Luo-Qing," said Zheng-Fu, nodding his head and turning to ask the young woman if she could take them to look at the items in the chamber of commerce.
"Trust me. I definitely won't disappoint you," the woman immediately responded without hesitation. She then led the four of them into the merchandise section on the first floor.
After a short walk, they arrived at a large product display hall on the first floor of the Mo-Qing Chamber of Commerce. Inside this hall were many objects, including weapons, armor, spells, and spell talismans.
Most of the items on the first floor were low-level items, and the prices were also very affordable. The highest price at this level was only a few tens of thousands to a hundred thousand demon crystal coins.
"I think we should go up to the second floor!" Neither Diao nor Den had any interest in the items on the first floor. They now had more than four million demon crystal coins and wanted something better, so they wanted to go up to the second floor.
"Alright! Let's go to the second floor," the young woman, Luo-Qing, did not object. She wanted it to be like that too. The more customers bought, the more money she earned.
Zheng-Fu went up to the second floor and saw that the space on the second floor was no different from the first. The width and the products were the same, and the people who walked and looked at the items were not much different from those on the first floor. Only the items on this floor were of much better quality than those on the first floor.
"Diao, Brother Den, do you need anything in particular? I'll take you to look at those things, so you don't waste a lot of time," asked the young woman with a smile, knowing that the two of them needed certain items.
"I want a good sword," Diao said first, imagining himself wielding a good sword against opponents and monster beasts or demons.
"I thought I'd buy a good set of armor," Den said. He already had his side weapon, so he wanted armor to enhance his defense.
"And what about the two of you?" Luo-Qing turned and asked Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian.
"I don't know yet. I want to walk around first. Let you guys go see what you want. If I'm done looking, I'll be waiting for you here," Zheng-Fu said, not thinking of buying anything because he still did not know what was interesting here.
"Me too," said Jin-Tian, as he had no intention of going anywhere but following Zheng-Fu.
"Then I'll take Diao and Brother Den to pick out some stuff. You and that young man can walk around and look at things on this floor comfortably. But if you want anything, please wait for me to come back," the young woman said, as she did not know the names of the two, so she politely addressed them both, especially Jin-Tian.
"I understand. But if I really want something and someone else wants it too, I won't wait for you," said Zheng-Fu, nodding but adding that he might not wait if someone else wanted something he wanted as well.
"Alright then."
Having finished speaking, Luo-Qing led the two young men to the other side of the hall. Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian chose to look around first and then continue to look at the other areas.
'The things on this continent don't look very different from the ones I came from. Everything is almost the same as if it were the same place. Just the spell traceries on these items are different,' Zheng-Fu thought to himself as he looked at the saber in front of him.
Most of the weapons and armor on this floor were of high rank. A few of them were at the Mystical Martial level, but more than half were damaged. However, they still had better abilities than those at the high level.
Other items on this floor included middle-grade herbs and strange fragments that Zheng-Fu had never seen before. When Zheng-Fu read the details of these strange fragments, he found that they were medicinal ingredients, and some were forged ingredients.
Additionally, there were poisons and elixirs that strengthened the physical body and increased Qi energy. The apothecary techniques here were much superior to those of the Holy Ancient region. This floor also had intermediate Qi energy stones for sale.
The exchange rate for one intermediate Qi energy stone was seven hundred thousand demon crystal coins, a much higher value than in the Holy Ancient region.
Since all the areas of this continent were filled with dark Qi energy mixed in the air, Qi energy here was not as pure as in the Holy Ancient region. So, the price of Qi energy stones here was very high.
"There aren't many interesting things on this floor. I'm not sure if there is anything interesting on the third floor?" Zheng-Fu muttered softly after finding nothing interesting on the second floor. But at that moment, Zheng-Fu sensed someone approaching from behind and heard a loud voice saying,
"May I ask if Young Master is particularly interested in anything?"
Upon hearing the voice, Zheng-Fu pretended to be slightly shocked and turned to look at the source of the sound. He found that the speaker was a middle-aged man who had a human appearance except for two horns on his head.
"There are no items on this floor that I'm interested in," replied Zheng-Fu, with a calm expression.
"Then, if it doesn't bother Young Master, I'd like to volunteer to take you up to the third floor. What do you think?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile, inviting Zheng-Fu to go up to the third floor of the Mo-Qing Chamber of Commerce.
"Then, that's great. I just want to go up to the third floor to look at things," Zheng-Fu replied, smiling slightly at the middle-aged man.
Zheng-Fu could sense that the middle-aged man in front of him held a high position in this chamber of commerce. His energy level was at the ninth level of the Immortal Soul stage, and he had a formidable aura, making Zheng-Fu confident that he was not mistaken.
After Zheng-Fu agreed, the middle-aged man immediately led him up to the third floor. As they walked up, the young woman, Luo-Qing, noticed and unconsciously let out a cry of exclamation.
"The Chamber Keeper!!?"
Huh...?
"The Chamber Keeper!? Who is it, Miss Luo-Qing?" Diao, standing closest to her, suddenly raised a questioning tone about the person the young woman referred to.
"Nothing, Diao. I mistook what I saw," replied the young woman, waving her hand to dismiss his question, saying she had just mistaken what she saw. But in reality, she just did not want to tell the young man about it.
'I didn't think the Chamber Keeper would come out to greet him in person. Who exactly is he?' Luo-Qing's mind was filled with many doubts. Usually, there were very few people that the Chamber Keeper, a middle-aged man, would come out to welcome.
Back to Zheng-Fu...
After going up to the third floor, Zheng-Fu found that it had fewer items than the first and second floors by half, and the number of people on this floor was only one-third of those on the lower floors. However, the items on this floor were all top-class.
The vast majority of weapons and armor were mystical-level items, with five to nine parts completed. Other items, such as herbs, were rare and used for concocting fourth and fifth-level pills. The ores were also of a similarly high level. Despite this, the items on this floor still did not attract Zheng-Fu's attention.
Even the high-level martial arts skills, weapons, and armor were not interesting to him.
"May I ask if Young Master is satisfied with anything?" asked the middle-aged man after seeing Zheng-Fu's expression, which seemed dissatisfied with the items on this floor.
"The stuff on this floor still doesn't please me. I don't know if you can take me up to the fourth floor?" Zheng-Fu asked, slightly turning his head to look at the middle-aged man to gauge his reaction.
"Of course, I can take you up to the fourth floor. But you must place a security deposit before you go up," replied the middle-aged man without hesitation, explaining the method for going up to the fourth floor.
"Place a security deposit? How much?" Zheng-Fu did not show a shocked expression. He already knew that going up to a higher floor required certification and wealth.
"Five million demon crystal coins, Young Master," said the middle-aged man, rubbing his hands and smiling.
"Um... I don't have any money on me. Can I use something else instead?" Zheng-Fu did not have any money used on this continent, so he thought of using something else.
"Of course, you can exchange valuables for money. Or you can exchange intermediate Qi energy stones for money as well," nodded the middle-aged man in response, explaining the items that could be exchanged for money.
"Then, can I exchange these for money?" Zheng-Fu asked, taking out two Immortal Qi energy stones.
"These Qi energy stones…!!?" As soon as the middle-aged man saw the Immortal Qi energy stones in Zheng-Fu's hand, his expression suddenly twitched in disbelief. He slowly reached out to grab the Qi energy stones and examine them.
"Their energy is much denser and purer than the intermediate and high-level Qi energy stones. These Qi energy stones must be the Immortal Qi energy stones for sure. Even though their lumps are not big, they're packed with a lot of energy," said the middle-aged man, looking passionately at the two stones. His eyes shone incomparably, like a child with a new toy.
"What price will you offer?"
