Cultivation: I Have a Trading System

Ye Feng's soul transmigrated to a cultivation world. He felt his meridians, which had been ruined by the original owner, and his face turned grim. "How am I supposed to cultivate now?"<...

Chapter 167 Myriad Treasures of Spiritual Materials

Five days have passed in the blink of an eye!

As the East China Sea Conference approaches, Hanhai City is becoming increasingly lively.

Not only are land-based sects and families rushing here, but even major fleets from the islands of the East China Sea are beginning to gather here.

In such a prosperous situation, not only are their own products easier to sell,

At the same time, one can also buy many spiritual materials that are normally difficult to find.

The port gate of Hanhai City

A group of low-ranking monk guides were searching for waiting clients along the street.

"Wow! Look, so many beautiful women over there!! They're dressed so scantily, are they cultivators from the Joyful Union Sect?"

“The cultivators of the Hehuan Sect wouldn’t dress so revealingly. This must be the Zhongzong sect under the Hehuan Sect, the Blissful Gate!”

"Paradise Gate? I wonder if they like male tour guides..."

"Why don't you go and try it and you'll see! Whether you're on the righteous path or the demonic path, you won't kill anyone once you get to Hanhai City."

This group of low-level cultivators, no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, all looked embarrassed upon hearing this.

But with so many people, there are bound to be some bold ones. One of the burly young men mustered his courage and, despite the strange looks from the others, stepped forward to ask.

"Hehe... Little brothers, I wonder if it costs money to hire you as tour guides?"

"Um... if you're going to make any purchases, then you don't need to... if you're just looking for directions, then one hundred spirit stones will suffice..."

The young man was practically ecstatic when he saw the smile on the other side.

But I still kept the Chamber of Commerce rules in mind; if I couldn't answer clearly and lost my job, I would be finished.

"Oh...young man, we don't look like we're rich at all. Why don't you help us out, and then...the three of us sisters will help you out too, okay...?"

...

Watching their colleague walk away surrounded by three beautiful women, the rest of the group couldn't help but feel annoyed, blaming themselves for not being bold enough.

One of the oldest boys even stomped his foot.

"Why haven't I seen Ma Yun and the other women lately?"

"I heard she found a job as a shop assistant and stopped being a tour guide."

"Them? Shop assistants?"

The older boy, named Zhang Liang, was almost twenty years old, but only had a Qi Refining Stage 7 cultivation level.

On the vast island of Han, no matter what job you do, you start with the foundation building stage.

Only by finding stable employment can they remain on the island after the age of twenty and receive the subsequent cultivation techniques from the Chamber of Commerce.

Otherwise, they would have no choice but to leave the island and find a job as a sailor.

"What kind of jobs can those few mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators find?"

"I heard it was opened by a tourist from out of town. He said he'd operate it for three months first, and if business was good, he'd continue."

"It turns out it was a temporary job. It's a real shame they quit as tour guides; it'll be even harder to get a job back later."

Zhang Liang showed disdain on his face, and at the same time felt that these people were not worth it.

Li Si, who was speaking from the side, looked envious and continued,

"The boss said that if they do well these three months, he will reward each of the thirty employees with a Foundation Establishment Pill..."

"I..."

"They only want women, and they have to be pretty!"

"Depend on!"

Zhang Liang's eyes revealed envy and jealousy.

Although their jobs paid well, the cost of living on the island was also very high.

Moreover, customers can't be found every day.

Each month, including tips, I earn about seven or eight thousand spirit stones. After deducting expenses, I have at most three thousand left.

Saving up money to buy Foundation Establishment Pills would take an unknown amount of time and also require luck.

Most importantly, you can't buy it even if you have the money!

The Chamber of Commerce's Foundation Building Pills will only be provided to those with better talent and formal employment.

These child tour guides are, at best, temporary workers.

Of course, even temporary workers are a status that people outside the island can only dream of.

Just as the group was feeling sad, three female cultivators in matching uniforms walked towards them from the other end of the street.

The one leading the group was none other than Ma Yun!

The three women were dressed in white shirts, black vests, and knee-length pencil skirts. Their hair was styled in a bun at the back of their heads, secured with a tennis ball.

The black leather shoes on his feet made a ticking sound as he walked on the stone pavement.

Her originally bean sprout-like figure, under this novel outfit, actually appeared more mature.

Zhang Liang and his companions couldn't help but lower their eyes and look away, feeling ashamed of themselves.

"Zhang Liang! Li Si, Wang Wu, you're all here?"

Ma Yun and her two companions, each holding a stack of papers, waved to them from afar.

"Hey, Ma Yun, Xu Jiao, Wang Qian, I heard you found new jobs, congratulations!"

Zhang Liang, being a few years older, understood the importance of personal relationships.

If the other person can establish their foundation before age twenty, they'll be from two completely different worlds afterward.

One could enter the chamber of commerce, while the other could only find work outside or become a wandering cultivator.

Having a friend in the chamber of commerce at that time will also be a reflection of one's own value.

I wish you all the best in finding good jobs!

Ma Yun responded with a smile, then asked another question.

"With so many people here today, how come you haven't received any orders?"

"They're all cultivators from the neighborhood, they don't need us to guide them. We've been queuing all morning and haven't found anyone who does."

"Chen Xiong did get an order... hehehe..."

Ma Yun nodded upon hearing this, and without delving into it further, she went straight to the point with Zhang Liang.

"I've given you a job, will you do it?"

......

After hearing Ma Yun's explanation, Zhang Liang's face showed disbelief.

"You mean, with this slip, I can go to your boss's [Treasure Trove Spiritual Materials] shop and get a spirit fruit? Anyone can get it? Even without buying anything? I can just take the slip and go eat it right now?"

"Yes! But you can only claim one per day! And it's usually just a spirit fruit worth two spirit stones."

Ma Yun nodded.

"What if I give the list to the villagers?"

"Okay! But there's one thing you have to make clear: if you profit from it and cause a dispute, the boss will come after you."

Also, for the tourists you're guiding, explain the activities on the flyer clearly. If they use your flyer to make a purchase, you'll get a 1% commission on each sale!

These words caused an uproar among the crowd.

The order form clearly states: "Grand opening, 20% off everything."

Even if the Vast Ocean Fortress returns, the discount will probably be around this level.

Such an attractive event even includes a referral fee for those who introduce the participants.

This is practically free!

"Does your store really have all kinds of spiritual materials? And there's no limit to the amount you can buy?"

"right!"

"Okay! I'll do it. Give me a hundred... no, five hundred!"

"Me too, I want three hundred..."

......

"I want a thousand!!"

Everyone:...

"Why are you looking at me? Is that a problem? I'm from the West City area, I have dozens of men!"

......
