Potions can’t be sold.

The remaining options are cultivation techniques and formations. However, cultivation techniques depend on the heart of Dao and formations are too high-end – they are mostly purchased by large companies as a whole set.

As for magical artifacts, he doesn’t have enough starting capital.

So, what was left was “Talisman”.

The Taoist sect’s development of talismans has reached perfection and were applied to all aspects of society. Many people within Taoist sects prefer to focus solely on their cultivation and are not interested in learning minor life spells like the Cleaning Technique or Disease Dispellin Technique. Therefore, they use talismans, which are solidified spell.

The greatest profit of the talisman factory where Chen Mobai’s mother works from is “Flying Talisman”.

Flying is the dream of every human being, but Qi practitioners can’t cultivate flying techniques, which makes the Flying Talisman the best-selling product. In Daoist sects, symbols such as Cleaning Talisman, Guidance Talisman and those for everyday life are the best selling ones.

On the other hand, talismans such as the Wood Armor Talisman and Green Arrow Talisman, that Chen Mobai frequently buys, are less popular due to the Taoist sects’ peaceful nature, making these products always in low demand. And because demand was low, the prices of these talismans remained low. However, it was different in the Tianhe Realm.

Guidance Talismans, Cleaning Talismans and other non-combative talismans are considered rubbish items.

Chen Mobai saw a business opportunity in this.

He swept all the goods in the Wood Spiritual Talisman shop he previously visited. The shopkeeper seemed to be a Talisman Maker specialized in the wood-series. There were lower-grade Rank-1 Poison Talismans, Coiling Talismans, Wooden Shield charms, Wood Prison talismans and Detoxification Talismans in his shop, selling at 15 Good Deed Points each.

Before Chen Mobai obtained the Turtle Shell opportunity, he earned pocket money by trimming talisman papers, a dozen sheets of trimmed small talisman paper which is the raw material of these lower-grade Rank-1 talismans could only be sold for 2 Good Deed Points.

However, this does not mean that the merchants are ripping people off. The main input for talismans is the “ink”. Different talismans may require differently dyed ink which needs to be carefully adjusted, it is a tedious procedure that if not handled properly, you might have to start all over again Of course, the ink required for making low and mid-rank talismans has basically been produced on assembly lines, but high-rank talismans still require Talisman Makers to personally prepare the ink.

For this reason, the minimum price for an upper-grade Rank-1 talisman has skyrocketed to 500 Good Deed Points per piece.

Chen Mobai checked the four talismans available in this store.

Revival Talisman, Wooden House Talisman, Wood Spiritual Talisman and Soldier-transforming Talisman.

Among them, the “Revival Talisman” is equivalent to an enhanced version of Returning Primordial Spirit Water. It can restore consumed spiritual power and remove all negative statuses from the user’s body, returning to peak condition in a very brief amount of time. Its price is 500 Good Deed Points each.

The “Wooden House Talisman” on the other hand is the best-selling life talisman. It can be used when you visit the outdoors and a livable wooden house can be summoned instantly.

You are also able to customize the blueprint according to your needs during talisman making, such as a single room, a room with a living room, two rooms with a living room, three rooms with a living room, and it can even come with a courtyard. The price is set according to customizability, with the base price for a single room starting at 1,000 Good Deed Points.

Chen Mobai was not familiar with the “Wood Spiritual Talisman”, he read the introduction and was amazed.

The Wood Spiritual Talisman allows the wearer to cultivate at the speed of a Perfect Wood-type Heavenly Spiritual Root when activated, but unfortunately, it only lasts for an hour. Moreover, the price of the talisman has surged to 5,000 Good Deed Points.

The final talisman, which is the Soldier-transforming Talisman, is the only offensive talisman, yet it only costs 3,000 Good Deed Points.

Apart from these four Rank-1 upper-grade talismans, there is another treasure of the shop – a lower-grade Rank-2 Yi Wood Divine Thunder Talisman.

It s also an offensive talisman, and prices a bit low, only 50,000 Good Deed Points.

When he was in Southstream Market, Chen Mobai inquired about the price of this talisman and they were basically starting from fifty spirit stones.

He was tempted to buy a Wooden House Talisman and build his secondary base on the barren mountain in the Tianhe Realm, but the Wooden House Talisman was too expensive, so he had to give up for the time being.

Chen Mobai bought 20 pieces of each of the five lower-grade Rank-1 talismans, and one piece of Revival Talisman, which cost him a total of 2,000 Good Deed Points.

Looking at the drastic decrease in his remaining balance, Chen Mobai felt a different kind of satisfaction after spending money.

After reselling these things to the Tianhe Realm, he could basically get a profit rate of ten times.

With the dream of making a fortune, it took Chen Mobai a long time to enter tranquility and cultivate his metal pillar spirit.

The next day.

After returning from school, Chen Mobai first went to the Evergreen Pharmacy. All the medicinal materials were ready and Qing Nu started to show her skills.

He did not disturb her further and quickly left.

Because the talismans were purchased online, it would take some time for them to be delivered to him. So today, Chen Mobai could only do some preparatory work for setting up a stall.

Meanwhile, he decided to get rid of the worn-out items on him.

Southstream Market.

When he arrived, he didn’t see the young boy surnamed Liu, he must have gotten some business. However, the other boy who was a guide last time was there. He was excited when he saw Chen Mobai, but as he seemed to recall something, he didn’t dare to come over.

But Chen Mobai needed his help and waved him over.

“Senior, you were looking for me?”

Looking nervous, Qi Er paid his respects to Chen Mobai and then came over.

“I have some stuff to sell, but there are too many different items and it’s too slow to set up a stall. Do you have any other channels?”

“Would senior like it to be quick, or slow?”

“What do you mean by quick or slow?”

Chen Mobai was interested and continued to ask.

“If you want it to be fast, you can directly sell your goods to any of the twenty-six stores in Southstream Market, as long as there’s no issue with the origin of the items, these stores will accept anything. If you want it to be slow, you can hand over your items to the stall owners and leave them there. The stall owner will give you half of the spiritual stones base on the value of the item, and the remaining half will be given to you after the item is sold. After the sale, they will take 10% of the total as their commission.”

The so-called stall owners, are those with the highest reputation among the market peddlers in Southstream Market.

In fact, these people are also disciples of the six major forces, only facilitating them to control the whole Southstream Market.

Qi Er explained the procedures to Chen Mobai.

“What are these six major forces?”

If it was before, Chen Mobai certainly wouldn’t ask such common sense questions, but during his last visit, he got to know that many cultivators from other countries often visit this Market, so pretending to be an outsider wouldn’t attract any attention.

The four Foundation Establishment families native to our Yun Country might not be familiar to you, but you definitely have heard of the Five Elements Sect and the Divine Wood Sect.”

Indeed, Chen Mobai had heard of them. According to the Introduction to the Major Sects of the Eastern Wilderness, both are among the seven major sects. The Divine Wood Sect was even split from the Five Elements Sect. The disciples of the two sects usually end up fighting whenever they meet.

“Alright, I’ve this short sword to give to you. I also want to sell a Qi Cultivation technique book and some potions, of course there is no issue with their origins. Do you think those stores will buy them?”

Qi Er accepted the short sword from Chen Mobai, his eyes sparkling at the sight. Although this thing isn’t worth ten gold pieces, if he can help this senior successfully close the deal, the senior might give him more rewards if he’s pleased. So he was very motivated to help out..
