The two streets weren’t completely disconnected from each other. Once in awhile, there will be rich mortals who will go to Overlooking Immortals street to buy some elixirs. Even though they couldn’t cultivate, they could still consume the elixirs to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lifespan.

Overlooking Immortals street is Qing city’s most prosperous street. Innumerable cultivators would come and go along this street; there were some who had swords on their back, some who wore alchemist uniforms, and some would even carry wine gourds on their back.

“Dage, should we rent a stall first?” Yan Tianhen often followed Lin Zhan here to shop, so he more or less understood the rules of the bazaar.

Lin Xuanzhi thought for a bit, then said, “Yeah.”

They found someone who was patrolling nearby, then after they told him what they were here for, they gave the other party ten silver and obtained an incomparably remote and desolate location. Yan Tianhen grimaced, then said with an aching heart, “He actually asked for one gold, isn’t that a bit too exorbitant!”

You must know, one gold is equivalent to a hundred silver, and this amount could get them G.o.d knows how many stalks of spiritual plants! He could only earn back that amount after working for twenty days!

Lin Xuanzhi knew that his housekeeping mentality had resurfaced, so he comforted, “Don’t worry, we’ll just raise the price of these wine cups a little higher.”

Yan Tianhen nodded, then said, “Then we should hurry and lay the cups out ba.”

Lin Xuanzhi had crafted a total of seven cups, two of which he left for his and Yan Tianhen’s personal use. The remaining five cups were arranged side by side on a piece of black brocade1 that he had laid out on their stall’s table.

But since their stall’s position was really too horrible2, don’t even mention selling the cups, they could rarely see people pa.s.sing by. Once in awhile one or two people would walk by, but they would only cast a brief glance at their stall then walk away without much interest.

Lin Xuanzhi is someone who had never dabbled in any sort of business. In his past life, he had adhered by the cultivator’s principle of not being stained by the stench of copper, so he had rarely touched any sort of money.

Thus, this immortal that appeared like he had never been stained with the secular stood behind their store and didn’t say a word. He actually looked like a decoration for the stall.

After an hour pa.s.sed, Yan Tianhen couldn’t sit still anymore.

“Dage, why not I shout out a few words ba.”

“Shout? I’m afraid that won’t be very effective.” Lin Xuanzhi thought for a bit, then took out one gold and pa.s.sed it to Yan Tianhen, then said, “Ah Hen, go to the adjacent Changle street and buy a jar of good wine.”

Yan Tianhen was stunned, then asked, “Do I buy mortal wine?”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded, then said with profound mystery, “The more ordinary it is, the stronger the effect will be when you drink it.”

Yan Tianhen nodded, then ran towards the adjacent Changle street.

Within a moment, Yan Tianhen ran back with a black jar.

Yan Tianhen placed the jar on their table, then broke out into a huge smile and said, “Mortal’s items are cheap after all. I went to buy their best wine and it only costed me one gold per catty3.

For a mortal, one gold was already considered a sky-high price.

Lin Xuanzhi unsealed the jar, then said, “Take a whiff, how’s the scent?”
