Chapter 567 Underground Chamber of Commerce Ships Goods
Lin Feng asked, "Teacher, what are the sales channels?"
Mr. Hong said, "I learned by chance that there is a loose underground chamber of commerce organization in Taixu."
Members of the organization can sell items or buy items from others.
Underground chambers of commerce are places where some people sell stolen goods, and the prices are lower than outside.
However, they will not reveal their identity, nor do they care about the origin of the items.
I'm planning to visit the underground chamber of commerce tomorrow.
"But teacher, you're not a member of the underground business association."
"That's easy, I'll go once."
Lin Feng had a lot of confidence in his teacher. His teacher had reached the elder level, possessed spiritual power, and was protected by a precious sword. Ordinary elders were no match for him.
However, Lin Feng still planned to go with his teacher.
This was, after all, the teacher's first action in Taixu.
I'll just watch from the side this time. If the teacher can't handle it, I can take action myself.
……
The next evening, Mr. Hong asked Lin Feng to find two sets of hooded clothes and two masks.
Lin Feng rummaged through the storage space and found the clothes and mask.
The master and apprentice put on their clothes and masks and left the courtyard.
The two entered an abandoned courtyard in Red Rain City, but were stopped by someone when they tried to walk in that direction.
"Please wait a moment, gentlemen. You will need to show your tokens if you wish to enter."
What this person wanted was naturally the token of the underground chamber of commerce.
Mr. Hong said, "This is our first time here, and we don't have any tokens."
The gatekeeper said, "Without a token, you must be accompanied by an elder of the Chamber of Commerce. If you are not accompanied by anyone, please leave."
The two waited at the door for a while, and every now and then people dressed similarly to them walked in.
These people showed their tokens and were allowed to pass.
Mr. Hong wanted to have a chat with these people and asked someone to take him and his apprentice inside.
As a result, nobody paid any attention to them.
The underground chamber of commerce's trading session was about to begin.
Mr. Hong gave Lin Feng a wink.
Lin Feng immediately understood that his master intended to force his way in.
Mr. Hong walked up to the gatekeeper and drew his sword.
The gatekeeper drew his sword and shouted, "How dare you force your way into the underground chamber of commerce!"
After the man shouted, more than a dozen people rushed out of the courtyard and surrounded Lin Feng and Mr. Hong.
Mr. Hong said calmly, "Bring out your manager."
I'm here to make a deal, not to kill someone.
The gatekeeper said arrogantly, "You're not worthy to see the steward. You can get out of here right now."
The gatekeepers had seen plenty of people forcibly breaking into the chamber of commerce; if they couldn't get rid of them, they'd just kill them.
With a soft thud, Mr. Hong plunged his sword into the man's mouth, the tip of which emerged from the back of his head.
Mr. Hong drew his sword, and the man's eyes widened as he fell to the ground.
The others immediately rushed forward.
Lin Feng simply dodged to the side without making a move, while Mr. Hong killed them all with a single sword strike, finishing them off in just a few breaths.
These people included natives of Taixu and people from Shenzhou, none of whom could match Mr. Hong's sword.
Lin Feng couldn't help but nod. His teacher's martial arts had recovered to almost 70-80%, and his swordsmanship was second only to his own among the martial artists he had ever seen.
Those who had gone inside to trade all came out to watch the spectacle.
Seeing that Mr. Hong had killed so many guards with just a few sword strikes, some of them even began to worry about their own safety.
Mr. Hong said again, "I'll say it again, I'm here to do business, not to kill people."
However, if someone wants to die, I wouldn't mind giving them a quick death.
Clap clap clap, at that moment someone started clapping.
The person who had been clapping stepped out from the crowd.
He said with a smile, "This gentleman has excellent swordsmanship."
Since you're here to do business, please come in.
These servants offended their master; their deaths are no big deal.
Mr. Hong sheathed his sword and led Lin Feng inside.
The speaker was the manager of the Chamber of Commerce.
This man saw that Mr. Hong killed someone while chatting and laughing, and that his swordsmanship was elegant and agile, clearly indicating that he had not used his full strength.
The underground chamber of commerce is a business that operates openly and does not want to make enemies with the powerful.
The best solution is to recruit this person into the underground chamber of commerce.
Someone as capable as him must have a lot of resources at his disposal.
After Lin Feng entered, he found that there were more than 30 people in the room, and everyone was wearing a mask.
The manager was in charge of overseeing the transaction.
Everyone took out their items in turn, and the person in charge was responsible for appraising the items. If the seller thought the price was reasonable, they could trade with others or barter.
The first person took out a sword.
"I found this sword by chance. It is extremely sharp and can be used to hunt mid-level demons."
The guild manager looked at the sword and said, "This sword is worth 100,000 magic crystals. Anyone who wants to buy it can do so now."
If there are multiple sellers, they can bid against each other.
If no one else bids, the Chamber of Commerce is willing to buy the sword.
The sword was eventually bought by someone for 110,000 magic crystals.
Lin Feng glanced at it and realized that the sword was the one he had sold. It seemed to have only sold for 60,000 magic crystals at the time, but after changing hands several times, it had sold for 110,000 magic crystals.
People brought out various items, but none of them caught Lin Feng's eye.
Someone even brought out a mid-grade magic crystal, valued at five million magic crystals.
Lin Feng still did not make a move.
No wonder there are no intermediate-level magic crystals on the market; it turns out that someone is buying and selling these things in an underground trading guild.
If you want intermediate-level magic crystals, just go out and kill demons; there's no need to spend so many magic crystals to buy them.
When it was Mr. Hong's turn...
Mr. Hong took out 500 catties of silver.
Everyone present was stunned.
Many people are wondering where all this silver came from.
But no one spoke.
Silver is a strategic resource; adding even a little to weapons can multiply the damage dealt to demons.
One of the rules of the underground chamber of commerce is that the origin of the goods is not questioned.
The chamber of commerce manager cleared his throat and said, "Normally, the price of silver should be reduced by half when trading here."
However, since this gentleman's silver was of excellent quality and he was shipping such a large quantity at once, we did not try to lower the price.
Five hundred catties of silver, priced at 2500 million magic crystals.
Buyers who are interested can now place their bids.
Buyers made bids one after another, and the price quickly reached 2600 million.
Lin Feng was puzzled by this situation.
How come there are so many rich people? How did these people accumulate so many magic crystals?
To obtain 2500 million low-level magic crystals, you must kill 2500 million low-level demons.
Why are there so many demons? No matter how many we kill, we can't get rid of them all.
This piece of silver eventually sold for 2650 million magic crystals.
Next, it was other people's turn to sell their items.
One of them was selling a jar of dragon venom, which has a strong paralyzing effect.
Lin Feng bought it for 50 magic crystals.
Lin Feng's poison skills require the collection of various deadly poisons. This kind of dragon venom is definitely not found in China, so it can enrich his collection of deadly poisons.
The transaction ended in the middle of the night.
Most of the items that nobody wanted to buy were acquired by the Chamber of Commerce.
Some items were indeed worthless, and even the Chamber of Commerce didn't want them.
When Lin Feng and Mr. Hong were about to leave.
The manager of the underground chamber of commerce walked over and said, "Please wait, gentlemen."
Lin Feng and his companion stopped in their tracks, and the manager of the underground chamber of commerce handed them two tokens.
“Our underground chamber of commerce holds a trade fair every month in major cities.”
The underground chamber of commerce has no taboos; anything can be bought and sold, regardless of the origin of the goods, and they treat everyone fairly, young and old.
Welcome back, both of you.
Lin Feng and Mr. Hong took the tokens and left the Chamber of Commerce.
The two walked around the city twice and, finding no one following them, returned to the courtyard.
Mr. Hong placed a large bag of magic crystals on the table.
"Exchanging silver for magic crystals is such a great deal! How long would it take to get this many magic crystals just by hunting?"
Lin Feng said with a smile, "A person can only absorb a maximum of 80 of these low-level magic crystals. Any more than that is useless."
This might explain why there are so many low-level magic crystals on the market.
Mr. Hong asked, "Since we can no longer absorb low-level magic crystals, how can we improve our strength?"
"Of course, it's to hunt mid-level demons and obtain mid-level magic crystals."
Lin Feng took out two swords and handed them to Mr. Hong.
These two swords were made by Lin Feng using the best materials. They are two meters long and the grooves on the blades are filled with silver.
At first glance, it looks like two silver dragons are crawling on the sword.
Mr. Hong took the two swords, examined them, and exclaimed, "Fine swords!"
Lin Feng said, "Teacher, I'll take you to the Demon Hunting Wilderness to hunt demons tomorrow."
"Great, I'd like to see what the legendary demon is like too."
