Although Chen Lin has lived in Qianyuan City for more than three years, he rarely goes out and doesn't know many people.
Except for a few shop owners, the rest of the people present were strangers.
Judging from Qu Sanniang's appearance, she knew most of them.
Soon, the seats in the hall were filled, but the number of people was not large, only about sixty or seventy. It should be that these were the people invited by the other party. There were no high-level cultivators, only a dozen or so Jindan, and the rest were Yuanying.
The main ones are the shop owners of major stores.
At this time, a young man with an extremely handsome appearance and a small scale between his eyebrows came up.
This man was extremely handsome. Chen Lin believed that he had seen countless beautiful monks, but none of them could compare to him.
This person has a unique aura that makes people unable to harbor any blasphemous thoughts towards him.
What puzzled him even more was that, apart from being handsome, it seemed difficult to tell the gender of these Green Scale Clan members. The one in front of him was even worse, looking almost female, with fine scales all over his body, and looking both enchanting and cold.
Suddenly, Chen Lin saw Qu Sanniang looking at him and gave him a look.
He immediately showed a look of surprise.
The other party meant that this young man was actually the patriarch of the Qinglin tribe
Before he could react, he heard the handsome young man say, "Welcome everyone to come here. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. This time, our clan has produced a lot of specialties. According to the agreement between our clan and Qianyuan Sect, we will trade with you."
After hearing the other party's words, Chen Lin suddenly understood.
No wonder I have never heard any news about the Qinglin Club. It turns out that this is not an open gathering, but is targeted at a fixed group of people.
This made him curious about Qu Sanniang. He wondered what kind of connection she had with Qianyuan Sect to have gotten such a position.
"Okay, everyone understands the situation, so let's just follow the previous rules. Let's trade the colorful jade first. We have a lot of harvest this time, more than 20 kilograms. Those who are interested can start now."
The handsome young man spoke, but did not take out the actual object, he just said a name.
Apparently, this colorful jade item is always available.
Chen Lin didn't even know what this thing was used for, so naturally he couldn't trade it and could only watch the fun.
Immediately, a white-haired old man said, "Please have a look at my colorful purple cloud bead. How much can it be exchanged for?"
As he spoke, he stood up and handed a jade box to the front. Inside the box was a bright and shining bead.
Chen Lin's face flashed with surprise.
He knew that this bead was the inner elixir of a sea monster. Its quality was at least at the God Transformation level and was extremely rare.
It seems that the specialty of the Qinglin tribe is of great value.
The handsome young man picked up the beads, looked at them, and shook his head.
Chen Lin's face changed. If even a treasure like this wasn't useful, then he didn't have anything else to show off.
The white-haired old man showed a look of disappointment, but did not leave. Instead, he took out a few more items and placed them all on the table, saying, "Here are all the rare items I have collected over the years. Can the clan leader please take a look and see if there is anything you need?"
Chen Lin looked over and found that the things the other party took out were very mixed, with all kinds of strange things, and he basically didn't recognize any of them.
This made him a little confused. He didn't understand what kind of items the Qinglin tribe focused on in their trading. Or, were they looking for some special treasures in this way
The handsome young man glanced at the white-haired old man's things, flipped through them casually, and finally picked up a shriveled fruit.
"This is fine, just one catty and two ounces!"
The white-haired old man was obviously stunned for a moment, then nodded in surprise, put away the other things, and returned to his seat.
Chen Lin couldn't tell what kind of spiritual object the shriveled fruit was, but he thought it must be no less than the demon pill of the divine transformation level. Such a treasure was only exchanged for more than one kilogram of colorful jade, while the other party took out twenty kilograms at a time. The foundation of the Qinglin clan was really different.
He couldn't help but smack his lips.
No wonder the other party dared to build a mountain gate on the territory of the human cultivators. It is estimated that this clan leader is also an existence equivalent to a powerful virtual refining cultivator.
"Shopkeeper Qu, what effect does this colorful jade have that makes it so valuable?"
While others were making deals, Chen Lin used soul transmission to ask Qu Sanniang.
These special items are hard to come by, so he could try to trade some if he can use them.
Qu Sanniang glanced at Chen Lin and transmitted her voice: "This thing tastes extremely delicious and can be used to make top-grade spiritual food. It also has the effect of making people enter a state of emptiness. It is very helpful for improving one's state of mind and comprehending the exercises. The effect is probably equivalent to that of an enlightenment pill, but without any side effects."
Chen Lin immediately became interested when he heard this.
Comprehension has always been his shortcoming, and the side effects of enlightenment pills are too great. Things like this that can improve comprehension are exactly what he has been looking for. He can trade some and keep them for future use.
But soon Qu Sanniang's voice sounded again.
"But once it's picked, it can only be kept for a month. If you want to buy it, don't buy too much."
Chen Lin suddenly realized that there were such restrictions. No wonder he had never seen them in the market.
Although he was envious, after thinking for a long time, he realized that he didn't have anything more valuable than the colorful purple cloud beads. He couldn't show off his valuable items, so he couldn't help feeling depressed.
But he soon realized he was wrong.
The Qinglin tribe did not choose items according to their value. He saw with his own eyes a mediocre man exchanged a golden elixir-level demon pill for two kilograms of colorful jade, while the other party did not even look at the Yuanying-level and Huashen-level demon pills he took out at the same time.
After watching for a while, Chen Lin became more certain that the other party did not consider the value when choosing items, but he could not tell what specifically he was looking at. It seemed that he was doing it completely at will.
No wonder Qu Sanniang said that it was useless to prepare in advance.
After thinking for a while, he took out a few things that he had obtained before but whose uses he didn't know and didn't look very valuable, and walked forward.
He put the things on the table and said, "Please take a look, Chief. Do any of these things meet your requirements?"
The handsome young man took a look and picked up a demon pill casually.
"This is fine, but it can only be exchanged for two taels."
Chen Lin's eyes flashed and he nodded in agreement.
This demon pill was in the storage bag of an old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm. It was only at the Foundation Establishment level, yet it was chosen.
He really wanted to ask the other party what kind of demon beast this demon pill came from and what its function was, because there were several similar demon pills.
But after thinking about it, I held back.
Before trading for the Lantern Fruit, it is best not to create unnecessary complications. If you make the other party unhappy, it will only increase the difficulty of the transaction.
Leaving the demon pill on the table, Chen Lin put away the other items and returned to his seat. Cai Yugu needed to get it when she left.
Then, Chen Lin did not make any more moves, but paid attention to other people's transactions.
Most of the things that the cultivators took out were unfamiliar things, the most common of which were demon pills, and occasionally there would be a few spiritual medicines.
But judging from the number of exchanged colored jades, those rare and strange things are more valuable. As long as they are accepted, they can be exchanged for a lot.
Demon pills came second, followed by spiritual medicines, and there were almost no magic weapons and various materials.
Chen Lin even saw a Divine Transformation cultivator take out a very precious elixir, but it was rejected by the handsome young man, which made him want to exchange the elixir for himself.
As such, he couldn't help but feel worried.
Nowadays, even the colorful jade sold by the pound requires such a rare item to be traded. If he asked to buy the Lantern Fruit, he didn't know what he would need to take out.
It definitely won’t work with just those few foundation-building demon pills.
The most valuable things he has now are some special inheritances, such as the Creation and Concentration Technique, the Ten Thousand Souls Creation Technique, etc.
Next are elixirs. Soul-Regenerating Pills and Soul-Refining Pills are all very valuable. Then there are various high-level spiritual medicines, but they are only generally high-level, and there are only a few rare ones.
But these things seem to be of no use here, and the Qinglin tribe leader doesn't even think highly of them.
As for rare objects, he also has some.
Divine crystals, bone-eating fruits, circumnavigating beasts, fish of fortune, and items from the demonic world are all considered rare items.
But it is hard to say whether the other party will be interested in it. Although most of the time they choose rare items, they don’t want everything.
Moreover, the levels of the divine crystal and bone-eroding fruit are too low, the detour beasts only have one-arm and two-arm detours, and there are only two medium-sized luck fish left. It is estimated that they will not be in the opponent's eyes.
While Chen Lin was thinking, all the twenty kilograms of colored jade were sold out.
The handsome young man glanced at everyone and said, "Next is the chalcedony rice. The quality of this rice is better than last time. There are 300 kilograms in total. Whoever wants it should hurry up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Lin saw several monks standing up, including Qu Sanniang.
He was not surprised. He knew that chalcedony rice was the signature dish of Qianyuan City's high-end spiritual food pavilion. The rice cooked with it was delicious and could nourish the body of a monk. Long-term consumption would be of great benefit to the body and was said to have the effect of preserving youth.
The grains of this kind of rice are very big, with one grain for every pound. It is said that one grain is one spiritual crystal, so it is also called "crystal rice".
He originally thought that this rice was a specialty of Qianyuan City, but he didn't expect it to be from the Qinglin tribe.
Although he also wanted to buy it, he didn't dare to act rashly. He came here mainly for the Ran Deng Fruit and couldn't use the things he had on him carelessly.
Soon, the three hundred kilograms of spiritual marrow rice were sold out. Qu Sanniang exchanged for ten kilograms with an unknown bone, with a smile on her face.
The other party must have come just for this thing, as he did not offer any other items afterwards.
Chen Lin just looked and saw quite a few treasures.
"Okay, that's all the common items. If you need anything else, please let me know. If not, let's adjourn the meeting!"
The handsome young man gave a boring summary, looking as if he was just doing his job.
Qu Sanniang immediately stood up and said, "Master, my companion wants to buy some Lantern Fruits. I hope you will agree to this."
Chen Lin didn't expect the other party to be so direct. He immediately stood up and saluted to the handsome young man.
The other monks all cast scrutinizing glances, but they were all looking at Chen Lin. Everyone knew Qu Sanniang.
"The Burning Lamp Fruit? Do you human cultivators still have any use for this thing?"
The handsome young man showed a look of surprise and also set his eyes on Chen Lin.
