107: Bao Qi's income couldn't cover its expenses.

Gu Changan began to rack his brain; killing people and seizing their goods was not realistic in the short term!

It wasn't as fast as spending Spirit Stones to buy them, but the drawback was that it was easy to be targeted.

The treasure gathering basin had the function of generating Treasure Qi due to the accumulation of treasures.

Then he could only collect treasures in large quantities.

Among them, Magical Artifacts were the easiest to collect; a low-grade magical artifact only cost a few dozen Spirit Stones.

Medicinal Pills were much more expensive and also relatively scarce!

After all, this was the Age of Dharma Decline, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was thin, and various Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicine were relatively rare.

Therefore, the price of the Medicinal Pills refined naturally rose along with the tide.

As for Talismans, they were not under consideration either, as those things were all one-time use.

If he purchased them in large quantities, it would definitely cause prices to rise in the short term.

As for Cultivation Technique, it went without saying; if you bought Cultivation Technique everywhere, even a fool would know something was wrong with you!

If you bought a pile of Magical Artifacts, you could still say it was for Family procurement.

Gu Changan steadied his mind; it seemed he could only collect low-grade magical artifacts in large quantities.

It would be best to go to places that recycled Magical Artifacts.

The territory of the Blood Fiend Alliance was very chaotic; everywhere there was killing and treasure snatching, and most of the recovered Magical Artifacts were not needed.

In the end, they all flowed into various shops, with a value of only half, or even thirty percent, of the original.

As long as he collected them, every Magical Artifact could generate a trace of Orange Treasure Qi!

The more he collected, the more Treasure Qi would accumulate!

Wouldn't he be rich then?

When the time came, he could replicate whatever he wanted!

He could upgrade whatever he wanted!

That feeling was truly wonderful!

A thought flashed through Gu Changan's mind: "Should I open a recycling shop?"

On the surface, he would sell some sundries, all of which would be exquisite goods!

And in secret, he would wantonly recycle various Magical Artifacts.

For him, who possessed the treasure gathering basin, this was a piece of cake!

It seemed to have a lot of room for maneuvering, but he would have to rent a shop and pay various taxes!

Perhaps he would also have to face exploitation by various Cultivators in the city.

It was really too troublesome; if he were to stay here for a long time, he could give it a try.

He didn't want to stay in one place for a long time, so he would have to go and purchase them personally.

At worst, he would just hit and run, changing locations!

As for what to use for the exchange?

Gu Changan stroked his chin; Talismans wouldn't work, their liquidity wasn't very good!

As for Magical Artifacts, he needed to accumulate them himself, so how could he use them for exchange?

Moreover, the price wasn't very high, and selling too many Magical Artifacts would also attract attention.

Cultivation Technique was even less easy to take out; this thing was replicable, and Gu Changan didn't want to add potential enemies for himself!

Then, there was only the Medicinal Pill.

The more expensive Medicinal Pills were the low-grade foundation establishment pill, and the low-grade yuan solidifying pill!

The foundation establishment pill was a hard currency; it could be sold anywhere, and he believed others would be willing to accept it!

As for the guyuan pill, it couldn't be seen on the market at all; it was all hidden away by various major forces.

Just like the Treasure Pavilion, they were unwilling to sell, maybe he could find a big customer?

Gu Changan pondered the feasibility; as for the foundation establishment pill, he could only release them one by one.

The price was between 10,000 Spirit Stones and 20,000 Spirit Stones, it should be easy to sell!

As for the guyuan pill, he could sell them in large quantities, with the price set at 2,000 to 3,000 Spirit Stones.

He believed these Bandit Cultivators shouldn't bargain!

Gu Changan revealed a slight smile, but the feasibility was much lower.

He believed it would attract many Bandit Cultivators, and then he could invite them to become brothers in the hundred soul banner?

What a perfect industrial closed loop!

Gu Changan chuckled, wiping away non-existent drool!

He did what he thought of; after tidying up, he left the small courtyard.

Gu Changan first disguised himself, then changed into a more wealthy-looking face.

His whole face was chubby, and his eyes were round.

Gu Changan also changed into a gorgeous golden Dao robe, giving people the feeling of being wealthy and noble.

At first glance, he looked like someone with plenty of Spirit Stones!

With this attire, purchasing a large number of low-grade magical artifacts was justifiable.

And it could also attract a group of Bandit Cultivators.

Gu Changan went directly to the east of the city to find a relatively small shop to test the waters first.

The type of shop was a grocery store, and it also had some Magical Artifacts for sale.

After entering, Gu Changan discovered that the Shop Owner was an old, feeble Cultivator.

His cultivation was seen through at a glance; he was in the Late Stage of Qi Refining and was nearly eighty or ninety years old.

If he couldn't reach Foundation Establishment, he couldn't increase his Lifespan, and it was estimated that this was how his life would be.

Gu Changan got straight to the point: "Do you have any low-grade magical artifacts for sale here?"

"The quantity I want is a bit large!"

The old, feeble Cultivator had originally seen Gu Changan's pressure of the Foundation Establishment Stage and his luxurious attire, thinking he was just coming in to look around.

He didn't speak, just stood up and waited quietly on the side.

It wasn't until Gu Changan's words came out that the old, feeble Cultivator felt that it was truly a big business.

A smile crept onto his brows: "Senior! Yes, we do!"

"Our shop has about more than 100 low-grade magical artifacts, including inventory!"

"Senior, which kind do you want?"

"Do you have any requirements for the style?"

"Only blades and swords?"

"Or do you want all the Magical Artifacts?"

Gu Changan nodded: "No requirements! As long as it's a low-grade magical artifact, that's fine!"

"Help me pack them up!"

The old, feeble Cultivator was a bit surprised!

"You want them all?"

"There are more than 100 pieces!"

"General low-grade magical artifacts are only 20 Spirit Stones each!"

"Slightly better low-grade magical artifacts are just 25 Spirit Stones each!"

"Defensive low-grade magical artifacts are 30 Spirit Stones each!"

"If you want them all, I'll charge you 2,500 Spirit Stones!"

The old, feeble Cultivator began to get up to prepare.

Before long, he brought over a Storage Pouch.

Gu Changan took it and looked inside; there were about 130 various low-grade magical artifacts.

Then, using the treasure gathering basin, he directly replicated dozens of low-grade yuan solidifying pills.

Subsequently, his right hand flipped, and he took out a porcelain bottle.

"See how many Spirit Stones this Medicinal Pill is worth?"

"If you agree, let's use it for the transaction!"

The old, feeble Cultivator was shocked; he tremblingly took the porcelain bottle and opened it cautiously.

A burst of pure Spiritual Qi rushed towards his face!

"It's actually a guyuan pill!"

"This! This!..."

"You might not even be able to buy this at the Treasure Pavilion!"

"The value is also over 2,000 Spirit Stones!"

The old, feeble Cultivator's eyes rolled: "This old man will shamelessly accept it!"

Gu Changan left with a smile.

Leaving only the old, feeble Cultivator standing in the wind, confused.

He looked at the Medicinal Pill in his hand for a moment, and then at the empty shelves.

Finally, he happily put the Medicinal Pill into his Storage Pouch, then closed the shop directly, not knowing where he went!

Not long after Gu Changan left, he had an idea in his mind.

A small grocery store had 100 low-grade magical artifacts inside.

Then what about larger shops?

Gu Changan crossed a street and turned into a shop that specialized in selling Magical Artifacts.

The scale was 3 to 5 times larger than the previous grocery store.

There were several shop assistants busy inside, and the Shop Owner was sitting far away in the back.

Gu Changan's Foundation Establishment cultivation was seen by the Shop Owner as soon as he entered the door.

The Shop Owner had a handlebar mustache and was about thirty or forty years old.

But given his Foundation Establishment cultivation, his age was likely a bit older, perhaps fifty or sixty years old.
