Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System



Inside the store, a beautiful woman dressed in traditional clothing welcomed them. Han Cai inquired about the location of the best cauldrons and alchemy materials, to which the woman replied that they could be found on the fifth floor of the store. However, entry to the fifth floor required a minimum spend of one million spirit stones. Han Cai nodded and turned to Yongnian, who handed the woman an Earth-grade storage ring containing more than fifty million lower spirit stones taken from the Ren family.

The woman's eyes widened as she examined the storage ring, and her smile grew broader. Yan Fucheng, standing nearby, also looked surprised at the sight of the Earth-grade storage ring. With the necessary spirit stones in hand, Han Cai and his companions were granted access to the fifth floor.

Yan Fucheng couldn't believe his master, Yan Rui, had been so generous as to give his great-grandson over a million spirit stones and an Earth-grade storage ring. Even he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, didn't have such luxuries. Nevertheless, he kept quiet, understanding that Han Cai was the future of their clan, and it made sense for the clan to spoil him.

With a wide smile, the lady led Han Cai, Yongnian, and Yan Fucheng to the fifth floor, where they were brought into a special room and seated. A short while later, several girls entered and served them beverages.

As they enjoyed their drinks, an old man entered the room and introduced himself as Lan Xue, asking how he could assist them.

Hearing the name, Yan Fucheng's eyes widened. This person was from one of the Azure Dragon Sect's vassal clans, who often used the name Lan. Han Cai requested the best alchemy materials available. He looked at Yongnian, who took out a parchment listing all the materials they needed. The list included an alchemy cauldron, mortar and pestles, pill manuals, herbs, ores, beast cores, refining tools, jade bottles, alchemist robes, and various other materials.

Seeing the list, the old man nodded and gave Han Cai a deep look. The list was elaborate, and a few items mentioned were ones only proper alchemists would ask for, such as special fuel minerals for creating specific pills. Lan Xue left the room and returned with various quality alchemy materials.

Han Cai discussed each material with the old man, having done his homework before coming to the store. Even though his grandmaster's innate ability wasn't active yet, it still made him more knowledgeable than the average cultivator. He asked about every detail of each material, discussing the pros and cons of each.

ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom Lan Xue was genuinely surprised by the young kid's understanding of alchemy and assumed that an elder alchemist must be teaching him. Yan Fucheng, on the other hand, knew that nobody in the Yan household had such extensive knowledge of alchemy. They traded pills and alchemy materials, but those pills were created by other alchemy families, and they merely acted as distributors. So he was surprised beyond belief.

Han Cai didn't like the alchemy cauldron they had on offer, as it was just a normal pill furnace. He wanted a high-quality alchemy cauldron. He asked, "Don't you have any quality Earth-grade alchemy cauldron?"

Both Lan Xue and Yan Fucheng looked at Han Cai with wide eyes, wondering who this kid was to ask for an Earth-grade Cauldron.

The old man replied, "No, we don't sell Earth-grade materials, but the auction house sometimes sells Earth-grade treasures. If you want, I can get you entrance to the auction house. As long as you pay one thousand lower-grade spirit stones, I can secure you a seat."

Han Cai liked the life of luxury, so when informed about the auction house, the first thing he inquired about was the cost of a VIP room at the auction house. Lan Xue informed him it would be around a hundred thousand lower-grade spirit stones. Han Cai nodded, and Yongnian produced another storage ring, this time a regular one. The old man took the ring, checked it, and nodded in approval.

The old man said, "Please wait for a minute. I will go and transfer the stones and bring the ring back."

Han Cai nodded.

Sometime later, the old man returned, handing the ring back to Yongnian and giving him a jade slip, saying, "Show this slip at the auction house, and you will receive the VIP room."

Yongnian took the ring and jade slip.

After gaining access to the auction house, Han Cai continued buying materials at the Azure Dragon store, purchasing everything else he needed. Everything he bought was of the highest quality; by the time he was done, he had spent more than twenty million lower-grade spirit stones.

When Han Cai was about to leave, the old man took out an azure jade with a dragon carved on it, saying, "Seeing how proficient you are in alchemy, you might have a chance in our sect test for the Azure Dragon Sect. When you reach the sect, show this jade, and they might give you special consideration." Han Cai nodded, took the jade, and left the store.

The auction was going to be held two weeks from now, so Han Cai had two weeks to spend in Verdant City. He planned to continue shopping, gathering materials for array formations and talismans.

Over the upcoming days, he went on a shopping spree for a variety of materials, buying Array Diagrams, Formation Flags, inscription ink, focusing lenses, formation soils, and every other material he could find. He almost cleaned out half of the stores he entered while buying these materials.

After finishing with the array of materials, Han Cai began shopping for talisman materials such as Talisman papers, special ink, beast blood, brushes, and every other talisman creation material he found.

Yan Fucheng, on the other hand, was having enlightenment in Dao of heart attack seeing how much the young master was spending. It made sense to him when Han Cai showed interest in alchemy, but going all out on even array and talisman resources was surprising.

By the time Han Cai was done shopping, two more days were left for the auction. He planned to rest and enjoy the food of Verdant City.
