Chapter 20 20. I, Xia Feng, don’t live off others!

Although the social atmosphere of Liuwei Society is very repressive, they are still quite generous when it comes to money.

After Xia Feng handed over the life fruit, the Finance Department bought it from him for 120,000, which was 20% of the average market price.

In addition to prolonging life, the Life Fruit is also the raw material for many medicines and is an essential medicinal material for scientific research in the company's experimental department.

As for the wisdom fruit, the market price was 10,000 imperial coins per piece. Since the prices were clearly marked on many online shopping platforms, the Finance Department directly bought all the wisdom fruits in his hands at the marked price of 10,000.

There are twelve in total, which is another 120,000 Imperial Coins.

Xia Feng looked at the 241,400.3 yuan of Imperial Coins in his bank card and felt deeply moved. The profession of adventurer was really profitable and it helped him get out of poverty in an instant.

If I go into the Evil Dragon Forest a few more times, wouldn’t I become a millionaire immediately?

But after thinking about it, he felt that it was not feasible. After all, the reason why they could find the Tree of Wisdom and the Tree of Life this time was actually entirely because the experts in the society had already entered the forest to explore the location and draw a map.

Therefore, these 240,000 are actually the benefits given by Liuwei Society to the winner.

There are actually not many extraordinary trees in the Evil Dragon Forest, and they are not as easy to find as you might imagine.

But it doesn't matter anymore. Now that he has so much money, it should be enough for him to buy the raw materials to build the "Gate to the World".

But there was a problem that bothered him. Both the fading ink and the blood of the elephant fish were easy to buy. He only spent 30,000 to buy two grams of each.

However, the Infinite Stone is a highly dangerous prohibited substance. Trading it can result in imprisonment! In serious cases, there's even a death penalty!

In order to prevent the invasion of the evil world, the entire Area 51 is shrouded in a defensive light network called "Infinite Realm".

The core material for constructing the Infinite Realm is the Infinite Stone.

This thing is extremely rare. The more it is used, the less it is available. It is an item that is expressly prohibited from being traded by the empire.

If anyone discovers a mine of infinite stone anywhere, the mineral will belong to the empire.

Of course, the Empire will also offer a fair bounty price.

Generally speaking, 1g of Wuliang Stone = 100,000 bounty.

That is why both mining Wuliangye and smuggling Wuliangye are undoubtedly extremely profitable industries.

Okay, now comes the question!

Where can I buy this prohibited item?

Xia Feng sat in the classroom, listening to the lecture and falling into deep thought.

"Okay, that's all for today's class."

Professor Freya shook the spirit bell, and the students immediately scattered. Xia Feng stood up and was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped:

"Classmate Xia Feng, please stay for a moment."

“.”

The lecture hall soon became empty. Professor Freya was wearing a professional suit today. Her white shirt was tightly bound by a black hip skirt, and paired with black high heels, she looked intellectual and capable.

She dodged and instantly moved from the podium to Xia Feng's desk, leaning over the desk and bending slightly. Her deep eyes stared down at Xia Feng.

"." She was very imposing. Xia Feng swallowed and shrank his neck slightly. Teacher, please don't do this. I'm scared.

After a long silence, she asked seriously, "Xia Feng, do you have any ideals?"

"Ideal? Of course I do."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Become a salted fish who does nothing but eat and sleep and can make money while lying down!" Xia Feng pumped his fist, his shining eyes full of ideals.

“.”

Freya hadn't expected such a unique ideal. "So, Xia Feng, do you desire power?"

"Huh?" Xia Feng stared at the woman suspiciously. "Teacher, what exactly do you want to say? Just say it."

Freya pursed her lips and said thoughtfully, "How have you considered what we talked about last time?"

"Consider? What?" Xia Feng was stunned.

"Of course you'll be my direct disciple!" The woman's mature face was slightly annoyed, and she slammed the table in displeasure. "Student Xia Feng, it seems you've turned a deaf ear to what the teacher says?!"

She had heard about what happened between Xia Feng and Qi Xiao last night. This guy was definitely a genius, and she believed in her own judgment.

".Ahem~ Teacher, don't be anxious, I'm still considering it," Xia Feng said awkwardly, "Well, I've thought it over now!"

"Hmm?" The red-haired woman's eyes lit up.

Xia Feng said seriously, "Teacher Fu, thank you for your kindness, but I really have no interest in swordsmanship. Besides, I have to work several part-time jobs to make money, so I really don't have time to learn swordsmanship from you."

The red-haired woman frowned slightly. "Part-time job? Are you poor?"

No, of course I'm not poor now. Xia Feng's expression darkened, and he whispered, "I'm an orphan. Although I was adopted by a foster father, my cheap foster father doesn't care about my living expenses, so teacher, I—"

Snap——

The black and gold bank card was slapped on the table. The red-haired woman said with a serious face, "One million, is that enough?"

Xia Feng: “.”

It was the first time Xia Feng had seen a teacher paying to accept an apprentice. He struggled to look away from the bank card, his expression still serious, and he spoke righteously:

"Teacher Fu, although I want to make money lying down, I have a good stomach and I won't eat free food!"

Snap——

The platinum bank card was slapped on the table, and Freya narrowed her eyes slightly: "Two million."

“.”

Teacher Fu, are you using this to test the cadres?!

Xia Feng was really convinced. He actually wanted to accept it, but once he became a disciple, the chances of discovering that he was actually a stupid cultivator would be greatly increased.

Seeing that he was still silent, Freya took a deep breath, and snapped——

The third one, rose gold!

"Three million. This is all the teacher's assets. There is no more." The red-haired woman said seriously, looking at the boy in front of her with endless expectations in her eyes.

all

Family wealth? !

Teacher, it's easy for you to be cheated out of everything like this. Xia Feng frowned and shook his head, but suddenly thought of something and looked up hesitantly, "Teacher Fu, do you know about the Wuliang Stone?"

"Infinite Stone?"

The red-haired woman's expression suddenly became serious, and her brows furrowed. "This is contraband. Why are you asking this? Did you pick it up?"

Seeing Freya's sudden change to a sharp and majestic temperament, Xia Feng's heart skipped a beat. He coughed and shook his head quickly: "How is that possible? It's not true. I'm just asking out of curiosity."

I almost forgot that in addition to being a professor at the academy, Freya is also the captain of the Eighth Team of the Holy Ministry, a team specifically responsible for the smuggling of extraordinary items.

Seeing Xia Feng change the subject and avoid talking about taking in a disciple, Freya was silent for a moment and said softly:

"Compared to making money, learning more skills in college is more important. You should think about it again. You can come back to see the teacher when you have figured it out."

Having said that, she shook her head and turned away without staying any longer.

"Teacher, wait!"

"Hmm?" Freya turned her head suddenly, blinked, and a light flashed in her dim eyes. "Have you figured it out?"

Xia Feng helplessly pointed to the three cards on the table: "Your family assets."

Freya: “.”

After the teacher left, Xia Feng sat quietly there, regretting his life of luxury for a full ten seconds, then stood up and left.

However, just as he turned a corner, he vaguely heard intermittent, strange, and out-of-tune singing coming from the corner ahead.

"Why does this voice sound familiar?"

He followed the singing in confusion.

But after thinking about it, he cast "Hide" and "Bronze Mask" on himself.

Hide and conceal your body.

The bronze mask reduces his presence, and even the force field of full-view detection may ignore his existence.

Soon, a human figure with only a translucent outline passed the garden rockery and came to a classroom at the end of the corridor.

[3601~3602 Spiritual Song Club, no entry for outsiders]

Through the glass window under the door plaque, he saw the back of a woman in a black dress.

Is that Mu Qingtong?
