Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

122: Purchase spiritual plants and incomplete alchemy scrolls.Chen Changsheng’s eyes nearly turned red when he heard that purple gold copper ore could sell for twenty thousand spirit crystals; keep in mind, he still had a thousand catties of purple gold copper ore sitting at home!

If he sold it all, wouldn’t that be twenty million spirit crystals?

Of course, Chen Changsheng didn’t dare to sell it on a large scale. The value of this item was too high. It was fine if one or two pieces popped up occasionally, but if sold in large quantities, others would definitely notice.

Then the Chen family would be in danger from then on.

“Hey! Kid, stop daydreaming. Are you selling it for forty thousand spirit crystals or not?”

Seeing Chen Changsheng spacing out, Old Man He couldn’t help but rap the tabletop heavily, snapping Chen Changsheng back to reality.

“I’ll sell it, of course I’ll sell it. I don’t know Artifact Refining, so what use is keeping this rock?”

Chen Changsheng smiled and agreed to Old Man He’s trade, then followed a maid to collect forty thousand spirit crystals.

“Dad, that purple gold copper ore is so valuable. Isn’t our family rich now? We’ll never have to worry about spirit crystals again!”

Chuanwu had been holding it in while inside the Spirit Artifact Pavilion, and only after they walked out did he speak to Chen Changsheng with an excited face.

“Yes, it’s quite valuable, but do you dare to sell it? Believe it or not, if you take out a hundred catties, the entire Annan Prefecture will investigate you until your background is laid bare!”

Chen Changsheng sneered, shattering Chen Chuanwu’s fantasy of becoming a cultivation nouveau riche.

“Our purple gold copper ore is like a ballast stone. If the day comes when our family has no money left at all, we’ll take out two pieces to sell. You are not allowed to tell anyone else normally!”

Chen Changsheng spoke in a very serious tone, and Chen Chuanwu nodded heavily.

“Let’s go, time to pick some spiritual plants!”

Seeing that Chuanwu had taken it to heart, Chen Changsheng had him lead the way. Chen Chuanwu personally took Chen Changsheng to the largest Spirit Plant Pavilion.

“Dear customers, what can I get for you?”

A maid from the Spirit Plant Pavilion quickly approached. Chen Changsheng first circled the shop and found that the selection of spiritual plants here was quite complete, though most were unranked spiritual plants, with very few ranked ones.

“We plan to buy some spiritual plant seedlings, seeds, and the like. Do you have any recommendations?”

Chen Changsheng told the maid his intention, and she asked:

“May I ask, dear customer, are you looking for Rank One spiritual plants or unranked ones?”

Chen Changsheng thought for a while and then said: “I want an unranked spiritual plant that grows quickly, and another that has simple environmental requirements!”

Hearing Chen Changsheng’s request, the maid led him to a counter in the shop.

“Dear customer, look at this water lily grass. It is an unranked spiritual plant that grows very quickly, maturing in just one month. It only needs to be planted in Spiritual Land with water. Of course, it can be planted without Spiritual Land, but it will take a year to grow.”

Chen Changsheng’s spiritual plant manual contained information on water lily grass. When this plant matures, it blooms a lotus flower, and the lotus seeds inside can be used to refine healing medicine. Although the price isn’t high, the demand is large.

“Good, how much are these water lily grass seeds?”

Chen Changsheng was quite satisfied with the water lily grass and asked the maid about the price.

“One hundred spirit crystals each, and there’s a discount if you buy many!”

Chen Changsheng was not short of Spirit Stones at the moment. He planned to dig a pond on the Spiritual Land to raise Spirit Fish, which would be perfect for planting water lily grass.

“Bring me a hundred seeds. Then recommend a Rank One spiritual plant that is easy to Cultivate!”

Chen Changsheng waved his hand and said very generously.

“Certainly. Dear customer, please follow me!”

The maid’s eyes lit up. Knowing the man before her was a wealthy customer, she hurriedly led him to pick spiritual plants.

Next, Chen Changsheng looked at several types of Rank One spiritual plants, but their growth conditions were all very demanding. They either needed to be planted in a volcano, required special spiritual soil, or even one that needed to be nurtured with spirit crystals.

Finally, Chen Changsheng selected a spiritual plant that was relatively easy to raise.

iron gold bamboo!

This bamboo can be planted in ordinary Spiritual Land. It can grow to two meters tall in ten years, appearing a deep iron color and being as hard as iron. It is often used for refining Magical Artifacts.

If it isn’t cut down for ten years and reaches a hundred years, it will turn dark gold. At that point, the price of this bamboo increases significantly, and even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would choose it as a material for refining their own Magical Artifacts.

Chen Changsheng chose this bamboo mainly to reserve a portion of Artifact Refining Materials for the Chen family. Once it grew, he would equip everyone in the Chen family with Magical Artifacts. After all, besides Chuanjie, everyone was still using mundane weapons!

“How much for one iron gold bamboo seed?”

Having taken a liking to it, Chen Changsheng asked the maid for the price.

“Five thousand Spirit Stones each!”

Hearing this, Chen Chuanwu couldn’t help but click his tongue and blur out:

“Why is it so expensive?”

The maid seemed accustomed to such comments and replied with a smile:

“Dear customer, a ten-year-old iron gold bamboo can be sold for fifty thousand spirit crystals, so the seeds are naturally a bit more expensive!”

Chen Changsheng had plenty of funds now, and since he favored the iron gold bamboo before him, he waved his hand and said:

“Give me ten of them. Chuanwu, go settle the bill!”

Chen Chuanwu went to settle the bill with the maid with a long face. The Chen family’s current net worth was only about a hundred thousand spirit crystals, and that was including the purple gold copper ore they had just sold.

He hadn’t expected that a quick stroll with his old man would immediately use up sixty thousand spirit crystals. His father was truly too extravagant!

A moment later, Chuanwu walked back with the seeds.

“Eldest, take me to the market for a stroll!”

Chen Changsheng’s interest in shopping had been piqued, and he was also quite curious about the items at the stalls.

“Dad, strolling is fine, but don’t buy anything else. Otherwise, our Chen family won’t even have spirit crystals left for Cultivation!”

Hearing this, a flash of embarrassment crossed Chen Changsheng’s face, but he then argued stubbornly:

“What do you know? This is called ’a thousand gold pieces scattered will come back again.’ Cough, cough, alright, I’ll just look around and won’t buy things recklessly, okay?”

Seeing Chen Chuanwu’s face getting darker and darker, Chen Changsheng had no choice but to compromise helplessly.

The two then headed to the market stall area. This place truly lived up to its reputation as a Loose Cultivator’s paradise, with all sorts of items available. Chen Changsheng watched with great interest, feeling like he was treasure hunting.

“Eh, what’s this, a pill manual?”

Chen Changsheng stopped in front of a stall, where an Alchemy manual, half-burnt by fire, was displayed.

“Can I flip through it?”

Chen Changsheng naturally knew the value of alchemy techniques. If it were the real deal, he would buy it even if it meant going bankrupt.

“You can only look at the first page!”

The stall owner saw that Chen Changsheng didn’t look like a troublemaker and nodded. After all, people were always finding fault with his Incomplete Manual.

Chen Changsheng picked up the pill manual and flipped it open. The first page recorded some basic Alchemy knowledge.

Although Chen Changsheng had never refined proper Medicinal Pills, he had refined a lot of medicine and had even refined the xiantian pill, so his experience was very seasoned.

He felt that what this Alchemy Incomplete Manual said should be true.

“Brother, can you guarantee this pill manual is authentic?”

Chen Changsheng asked curiously, but to his surprise, the stall owner’s face immediately darkened. He snatched back the pill manual and said angrily:

“Are you looking for trouble? How can an Incomplete Manual be verified as authentic? If this were a complete copy, I would have sold it to an immortal clan for a huge price already. Why would it be your turn to pick up a bargain!”
