Chapter 234: Chapter 9: Making a Fortune from War, Profits in the Millions?

A merchant?

Shao Wenmin was momentarily taken aback upon hearing this and asked:

"Senior, do you have any Magical Treasures or Pills you’re looking to offload?"

"Although I, Shao, am merely at Foundation Establishment, I have been the Garrison Commander for two years and have some connections here in Xinliang City..."

"It’s just that, Senior, your Magical Treasures might not be affordable for ordinary Cultivators..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen realized that Shao Wenmin misunderstood.

So after some thought, he said:

"Garrison Commander Shao, I am a true merchant in every sense of the word!" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Let me reintroduce myself; I am a representative of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, responsible for selling Pills and Magical Treasures..."

"A representative of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, Senior Xu Shi..."

Shao Wenmin silently repeated this to himself, scratching his head. It sounded familiar, but he couldn’t recall at the moment.

So he simply asked, "Senior, what kind of Magical Treasures do you intend to sell?"

Lin Chen, without hesitation, displayed a few Top Grade Magical Artifacts, several bottles of Pills, and a few Five Thunders.

Shao Wenmin took these Magical Treasures, examined them in his hands, and showed a surprised expression.

"The treasures from Senior are indeed suitable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators like us."

"How about this? Why don’t you name a price, Senior, and I will purchase them directly!"

Shao Wenmin truly had his eye on Lin Chen’s Magical Treasures and Pills.

At the same time, he thought of buying them directly to build more of a relationship with Lin Chen.

Yet Lin Chen knew in his heart that Shao Wenmin still misunderstood his intentions.

So Lin Chen said:

"Garrison Commander Shao, I have many such Magical Treasures and Pills; you can’t afford them..."

"Oh? How many does Senior have..." Garrison Commander Shao raised an eyebrow, somewhat disbelieving. Although he was only at Foundation Establishment Perfection, his salary in the city wasn’t low, and his wealth was comparable to that of ordinary Fake Pill Cultivators.

Lin Chen sighed and with a wave of his hand, hundreds of Magical Treasures appeared in the air.

He only gave Garrison Commander Shao a glance before taking them back.

"I have about a few thousand or so; this is just the current stock... There are more to come."

Despite the brief glance, Garrison Commander Shao was still shocked by the countless Magical Treasures.

"Senior... Is Senior from a Chamber of Commerce? Are you here to sell goods in my Xinliang City?" Shao Wenmin asked in astonishment.

Lin Chen stroked his nose but did not deny it.

"Something like that, but the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect is somewhat different from a Chamber of Commerce."

"I just don’t know if Garrison Commander Shao is interested in this batch of goods and how much you can handle?"

Hearing these words, Shao Wenmin fell into deep thought.

Top Grade Magical Artifacts, Five Thunders, Pills for healing injuries.

These are scarce resources at the front lines!

Even though the Changchun Sect and the Celestial Pill Sect, the two luminaries of the Righteous path, are continuously transporting resources and Magical Treasures to the front lines.

Compared to the demand at the front lines, they are still far from enough.

Especially the demand for Top Grade Magical Artifacts.

A Top Grade Magical Artifact is worth no less than a thousand Spirit Stones.

Moreover, even a Second Tier Artifact Refiner can only refine one a day at most.

Artifact refiners are also human; they can fail, and they need rest.

Even a highly productive Second Tier Artifact Refiner can only produce over a hundred Top Grade Magical Artifacts a year, and their quality is not high.

Since the full outbreak of the war between the Orthodox and Demonic Party, the Magical Treasures on the battlefield have been in short supply in just two short years!

Even some Foundation Establishment Cultivators are using Middle Grade, if not Lower Grade, Magical Artifacts...

And among Cultivators of the same level, the strength of their Magical Treasures often determines the outcome!

Shao Wenmin murmured:

"If this batch of Magical Treasures can be purchased, it would not only strengthen my Xinliang City’s capabilities but would also be a significant achievement!"

Thinking of this, Shao Wenmin decisively said:

"Senior, I will gather the city’s Cultivators and make a registration right away."

"How many Magical Treasures and Pills do we need in total? The transaction can be completed in at most a day... What do you think, Senior?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen readily agreed.

This business opportunity that came knocking, how could he not seize it?

Thus, Shao Wenmin first arranged a residence for Long Ba.

Lin Chen also rested at Long Ba’s residence for a day.

The next day, Shao Wenmin hastily found Lin Chen and provided him with a list.

The list naturally contained the Magical Treasures and Pills needed by the Cultivators in Xinliang City.

Including nearly a thousand Five Thunders, dozens of Top Grade Magical Artifacts, hundreds of Upper Grade Magical Artifacts...

Hundreds of bottles of various Pills.

After briefly tallying, Lin Chen realized that just this transaction alone would yield him over two hundred thousand Spirit Stones in profit.

"Garrison Commander Shao, did you bring the Spirit Stones?" Lin Chen asked.

Shao Wenmin promptly handed over a Spirit Stone Bag and said, "Rest assured, Senior, the Spirit Stones have been prepared long ago; we cannot afford to delay your payment!"

After scanning with Divine Sense and confirming the count was correct, Lin Chen provided all the Magical Treasures and Pills on the list.

"Tsk tsk, business that comes to your door is always good to do!"

Lin Chen thought to himself, feeling particularly delighted.

Just by staying in Xinliang City for a day, he had gained three hundred thousand Spirit Stones—where else is it possible to do business this smoothly?

After the transaction was completed, Lin Chen cupped his hands and said:

"Garrison Commander Shao, since the deal is done, it is time for me to leave."

"When the need arises next time, I will come again..."

After saying that, Lin Chen prepared to leave.

A voice came from behind:

"Senior, wait!"

Shao Wenmin stepped forward and handed over a Token:

"Senior, this is the token of our Xinliang City Garrison. With this token, you can also gain the trust of the garrisons in the other cities at the front lines."

"By selling your Magical Treasures, you strengthen the forces of our Righteous Alliance. It’s truly a commendable act for the Righteous Alliance. Having this token will surely make your dealings more convenient."

Shao Wenmin knew that Lin Chen intended to continue trading in other cities.
