Chapter 289 Market Value



"Pills?" Everyone was puzzled and looked at the Lord of Lezhou City eagerly, wanting to get more answers.

"Underwater breathing pill. As the name suggests, you know..." The Lord of Lezhou City said meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, the other city lords were speechless. With such a pill, it was no wonder that the competition had lost its meaning.

The question is, where did such a heaven-defying thing come from? I have never heard of it before, okay?

Now that the mission in Lezhou City has been completed, the Lord of Lezhou City has also made public the situation of the elixir, which will naturally be sold to everyone.

As for what price would be required to obtain other cities, the city lords looked at each other and were ready to bleed.

Even if the top ten are gone, the points at the back and in the team are still there. If you don’t fight for it, you will be directly at the bottom.

This will determine the allocation of resources for the next five years, which is of great importance.

The city lords were mentally prepared and wanted to unite to lower the price, but they didn't expect that the other party didn't give them any chance to bargain.

While offering a sky-high price, they also came with an additional trading method, which was some materials that they found very strange and rubbish. Basically, the treasury of every city lord's mansion was piled with some strange things.

Although this is public property, it is also for the expenses of the competition, right? It is definitely not paid out of personal pockets.

Therefore, compared to real gold and silver, the city lords would rather exchange those things that are of no use and have been kept for who knows how many years.

Anyway, they don’t need it now, so leave it to the next person in charge, and it will still be stored in the treasury.

So, Yang Lan'er used the underwater breathing pill to exchange for a lot of useful things.

You know, she doesn't just trade one thing for another, the value is entirely determined by her.

And for the first time, I have to get ten of them first.

Yang Lan'er is also quite humane. At least she can explain the things first and then pay them in advance.

After all, some cities are quite far away, and even if you fly by air, it will take more than a day or two to reach them, so it is necessary to delay payment.

The notarization was naturally done by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so even the city lord, who had some ulterior motives, would not dare to deny his obligation.

After the lively octopus dinner, each team took action. Those who did not go into the water at first and waited for support from their teammates had no reason to do so and had to go into the water to fulfill their mission.

Of course, with this kind of elixir, the significance of underwater fighting is actually no longer important.

The breathing is as free as on the shore. It depends on one's luck! Yang Lan'er followed the progress of the Lord of Lezhou City. After a stroll, she saw Duan Jinghui eating octopus in his team. She couldn't help wondering, did this person get lost and come back? Did he not leave the cordon? I can't figure it out at all! However, Niu Hua'er from Baiyue City did not go into the water. In addition to her injuries, she had a psychological shadow on her subordinates and her mood was very unstable. Therefore, the Lord of Baiyue City had no choice but to let only nine people go down.

Of course, Yang Lan'er did not hold back against the Lord of Baiyue City. Not only her, but also the Lord of Lezhou City made heavy efforts, making the Lord of Baiyue City pay a lot of things to exchange for the minimum of ten pills.

There is no way, who made everyone have a grudge? Bai Yue City Lord himself understood, so he had nothing to say from beginning to end. After knowing about this elixir, he was more prepared to be slaughtered than anyone else.

He really didn't feel bad about being able to exchange it with the "garbage" in the treasury, but instead felt relieved.

Of course, the same treatment as the Lord of Baiyue City also came from the Lord of Heishui City. His face was extremely grumpy, but he was helpless. He even cursed those brats in his own team in his heart. Why did he offend the number one in Lezhou City when he could offend anyone else? What other solutions did he have now?

What these two cities paid was several times more than what other cities paid.

Yang Lan'er looked at the list of each city and smiled until her eyes narrowed.

The most surprised person was Crown Prince Qian Ke. Others didn’t know about these things, but he knew them very well. It was the first time he knew that the city lords’ mansions actually had such good things hidden?

Generally speaking, the dynasty did not pay much attention to the treasuries of various cities. Every year, all they had to do was pay taxes on time and in the right amount.

Of course, Qian Ke knew these things because they could be used to exchange for more national resources, and he and the people around him would not need them too much.

As a dynasty, the most important thing for development is naturally national resources.

Qian Ke was not annoyed about Yang Lan'er obtaining these things. It only proved that Yang Lan'er was that kind of person, and if Wang Chao was on good terms with her, there would only be benefits.

However, Yang Lan'er's action meant that the local cities of the Qianxiang Dynasty would not have this kind of "garbage" for countless years to come, and somehow, the dynasty gained more resources for development, and soon after Qian Ke came to power, it finally succeeded in being promoted to an empire.

Now, Qian Ke is already thinking about whether he should give some things from the dynasty treasury to Yang Lan'er in order to seek protection in the future.

After all, if these things were to be exchanged for resources, they would be sent to the empire. Such targeted investment was rarely possible. Of course, the hesitation here was that if Yang Lan'er could not reach a certain level, their investment might not pay off. There were both risks and benefits.

Qian Ke decided to go back and discuss it with his father...

In this incident, in addition to the depressed Lord Baiyue City and Lord Heishui City, there is someone who is more entangled and sad than them, and that is the person in charge of the Rare Treasures Pavilion in the capital.

The Pavilion of Rare and Exotic Treasures, as the name suggests, some strange things will naturally attract their attention, not to mention this kind of elixir that even the world of cultivation does not have, the business can be sustained for a long time.

Under normal circumstances, the owner of the elixir might have voluntarily handed it over to the Pavilion of Rare Treasures. This was the first time that it was completely excluded, and moreover, even if he got close enough, he couldn't get any access to it.

At this moment, the middle-aged man from the Pavilion of Rare Treasures regretted his decision to such an extent that his intestines turned green. With such a new and miraculous elixir, he might be able to get a promotion, and he wouldn't have to wait for his illusory breakthrough at all.

After doing business for so many years, the middle-aged man fully understood the extremely high value of the underwater breathing pill.

This thing is definitely not despised even in the world of cultivation, even if it is not even ranked high enough.

What? You said that monks have the ability to walk underwater? But who would want to waste it if it can save spiritual energy? Taking a pill can make you move comfortably underwater. Isn't it inconvenient to use spiritual energy techniques yourself?

Moreover, for humans, whether they are cultivators or not, the underwater world is full of great dangers. Saving every penny counts. You have to keep the spell at all times, otherwise you will be distracted when fighting, right? Therefore, this pill has a better market than Yang Lan'er expected.

The second level lasted only three days, and all teams completed the task. Naturally, the Royal Family and the Pavilion of Rare Treasures would not miss the opportunity to purchase blood coral, a holy product for beauty and skin care, and its price has always been high.
