——————————————

Having traveled back and forth to Yalidov a few times, ensuring the positioning firestone was set up and usable, Gu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After confirming he could return to the real world, Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief again, then went to the municipal hall to submit his task and exchanged part of it for funds.

With money in hand, Gu Xi didn’t go straight to the Sword Washing Pool, but returned to the bookstore where he initially read, and bought all the books he had previously packaged.

Seeing Gu Xi coming to buy books, the bookstore’s clerk was somewhat surprised.

The clerk previously thought Gu Xi had given up, but didn’t expect him to have made money.

”Did you go to the black market?”

”No, I went to do a task.”

Gu Xi shook his head, ”Although the task was a bit difficult, I made some money in the end. Do you still have the books I previously packaged? By the way, please add these books for me.”

Gu Xi named the books, which were some mentioned by Liu Baiwei about city-building and local specialty studies.

All these books are considered foundational textbooks.

Most bookstores sell them, and there’s no restriction on purchases.

Previously, Gu Xi simply wasn’t focused on them, so he didn’t know about these books.

Now, with Liu Baiwei’s guidance, Gu Xi naturally wouldn’t miss these foundational materials.

Since he was buying books anyway, he might as well buy them all at once.

After sending all the packaged books back to Yalidov City and handing them over to Eve for processing, Gu Xi left the bookstore.

The last time he left the bookstore, he chose to go to the municipal hall to take on a task.

This time was different, Gu Xi planned to take a look at the black market the clerk mentioned.

It’s said that there are things that come from other channels, and there might even be contraband.

The most important thing is, stuff here is relatively cheap, and as long as you don’t mind using items taken from the dead, prices for materials here are at least half cheaper than outside.

For Gu Xi, what’s wrong with items from the dead, as long as they are cheap, he’d even dare to use stuff from the grave.

Besides, there are always some things that aren’t suitable to buy in the outside market.

So the black market is a place he must visit.

As for why to go there first, it’s definitely because he’s low on cash, and the items in the black market are prioritized.

According to the clerk’s directions, upon arriving near the black market, Gu Xi found it was well guarded and not as he imagined, being a black market known to everyone.

When Gu Xi arrived, he hadn’t even seen the route to the black market before two men in black robes appeared about five meters away from him.

This distance is considered safe for players; getting too close can trigger hostility.

”Buying or selling?”

”Buying.”

Initially, Gu Xi had the idea of selling some resources.

But after what Liu Baiwei said, he knew his negative energy didn’t have much competitiveness.

Selling negative energy here would mean selling cheaply.

So why not sell nothing and keep it for himself?

After giving Gu Xi a glance, one of the black robes led him in another direction.

”Be honest when you get there, don’t cause trouble. If you need anything, just ask someone dressed like me.”

Gu Xi nodded affirmatively, after they passed through a few alleys, Gu Xi found he was brought near an abandoned building.

”What do you want to buy? There, the yellow building sells seedlings, over there sells weapons and equipment, and that place sells some stolen goods.”

”I want some special quality seeds or seedlings. If possible, I would like a large number of corpses, high-quality corpses.”

”There are seedlings, see that yellow building, they sell seedlings there.

As for high-quality corpses, those are few. Qianfang City isn’t a city leaning towards the undead, our city primarily focuses on the power of wind.

So we generally don’t have ways to preserve corpses. Even if we kill high-tier enemies, we mainly focus on the equipment on them, and seldom bring back corpses.

If you really want, go check that black building over there.

It sells items unearthed by archaeology; you might find what you want.”

Listening to Gu Xi’s requirements, the black-robed man introduced the layout of the black market.

About the lack of suitable corpses, Gu Xi could understand.

After all, every city has its style.

After hearing the directions clearly, Gu Xi headed towards the yellow building first.

Liu Baiwei mentioned that within the specialties, various trees are the best to cultivate.

Since Gu Xi was on the undead path, some peach trees or locust trees could be situated.

These two trees, one wards off ghosts, the other nurtures ghosts, are the best tree species.

However, Liu Baiwei personally recommended Gu Xi plant peach trees.

After all, peaches can be eaten, while for the locust tree, only the flowers and leaves are edible.

Of course, if Gu Xi got lucky in the black market and obtained other special tree species or suitable undead crops, that would be even better.

If not, Liu Baiwei also advised Gu Xi not to force it.

The specialties of each city have been carefully selected over the years.

Don’t mess around.

Randomly stuffing various things into your city is significant damage to it.

In Liu Baiwei’s position, he’d rather have no specialty in the city than to mess around.

Gu Xi only believed half of what Liu Baiwei said.

He came to the black market to see if he was lucky and could find something different.

In Gu Xi’s mind, he believes he has more advantages than others coming to this black market.

On one hand, Gu Xi comes from the depths of the game, where those of level 20 and above are high-level.

Some things that seem ordinary or even insignificant here might be top treasures in Gu Xi’s eyes.

So he doesn’t mind about mediocre tree species or crop types.

On the other hand, Gu Xi is on a different path.

Items that some undead mages consider top quality can be seen as harmful here to players.

Gu Xi’s strategy is to exploit this information gap.

He plans to buy what he wants at the lowest price before anyone in the black market catches on.

To ensure he isn’t affected by some mind spells, Gu Xi first chose immunity to mind magic.

After preparing everything, Gu Xi finally stepped into the yellow building.

As soon as he entered, Gu Xi saw a seedling full of eyes staring at him.

And a voice sounded beside Gu Xi.

”This guest here, are you interested in this Longan Tree?”
