Chapter 3583 3581-Going To The Market Again
"En, since Junior Brother Lin is already here, you can take him to the market and wait for us. I'll go and call the other newcomers." Meng jueguang ordered.
"Uh ... Senior brother Meng, why don't I go and get the new guy?" The senior brother asked carefully.
Normally, this kind of menial errand was his job, or else why would he be called a menial worker? he had long since gotten used to it, but for the first time, Meng jueguang was going to personally run the errand. Was the sun rising from the West?
But Meng jueguang waved his hand and glanced at Lin Yi mockingly,"No need. You should bring our strongest newcomer over first so that he won't waste his precious time. Hehe!"
With that, Meng jueguang left with Meng Tong without waiting for the miserable senior brother to speak.
The miserable senior brother looked at the back of the two people in the distance and couldn't help but Mutter in wonder,""Senior brother Meng's style today seems a little different from before?"
Lin Yi shook his head as well. Meng jueguang was just mocking him, but it was strange that he didn't use this opportunity to make Lin Yi run errands for his poor Shixiong. According to normal logic, even if this opportunity did not cause him any substantial losses, it should at least be used to disgust him. Given Meng jueguang's personality, how could he let it go so easily?
Lin Yi and the miserable senior brother looked at each other, unable to come up with an answer. The two could only follow Meng jueguang's instructions and wait for them at the market.
Lin Yi had just been to the market, but he had to act as if it was his first time in order not to give himself away. After all, it was his first time in the market with his original appearance.
The two of them waited at the entrance of the market for a moment before they saw Meng jueguang leading a group of new disciples over from afar. As for Meng Tong, he seemed to have been left behind for some reason. He jogged all the way to catch up and gave Meng jueguang a meaningful look, which the latter nodded in understanding.
Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were also in the crowd. They let out a breath of relief when they saw Lin Yi and their miserable senior brother. They greeted the two before looking around curiously.
Seeing this noisy market, the faces of the group of newbies all had jubilant and excited expressions. There were many markets in the common world that were a hundred times more lively than this, but this was a practitioner's market! Anyone who walked in and out of it was at least a Sky Class master, and the goods here, be it skills, pills, or treasures, were all things that couldn't be bought anywhere else. There was no way to compare the two.
Although these newcomers only had one piece of spirit Jade in their hands, and it was even a spirit Jade that had used up most of its spiritual energy, it was basically impossible for them to buy anything in the market. However, Meng jueguang had not brought them out for shopping, but to familiarize them with the environment. Therefore, Meng jueguang still patiently introduced them to many of the rules of the market.
Of course, Meng jueguang wasn't that kind-hearted. He just wanted these disciples to think that he was knowledgeable and admire him. Otherwise, this Coolie would have long become a slave.
However, Lin Yi did benefit a lot from this. After all, he had hidden his identity when he came here, and although he strolled around a few times, he didn't know much about the rules of the market. He didn't know much about the rules, but now that Meng jueguang explained it to him, he had a rough idea of how to trade here.
In this market, although there were many situations of bartering, they were rare. After all, it was very rare for both parties to be interested in each other's items, and the value of both parties was about the same. Most of the time, they still used the common currency, spiritual Jade, to trade with each other.
This was easy to understand-first, spirit Jade was very common on Sky Class Island, and second, it was a precious item, useful to all practitioners. Other than Lin Yi, who had the Jade space, even the higher level practitioners were still very reliant on spirit Jade for their training. There was no risk of depreciation, and it became the common currency for trade.
However, even if everyone acknowledged that spiritual Jade was the common currency, there were still some considerations. The most important thing was the quality and size of the spiritual Jade.
The so-called quality of a spiritual Jade was determined by the concentration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the spiritual Jade.
According to the rules of the market, the spiritual Jade used for trading must be unused and full. Once someone was found to have used their own spiritual Jade to trade as New Jade, the management staff of the market would punish them severely. This was to prevent anyone from using this loophole to take advantage of the chaos and ruin the reputation of the market.
After all, to cultivators, the value of a full spiritual Jade and a spiritual Jade that had been used was completely different. If they accidentally collected a spiritual Jade that had used up most of its spiritual energy, it would be a huge loss for the seller. In addition, the waste jades in the spirit jade mine with insufficient natural spiritual energy could not be taken out and used. If they were placed in the secular world, they would simply be natural counterfeit money.
As for the size of the spiritual Jade, it was even easier to understand. Even if the concentration of heaven and earth spiritual energy inside was the same, if the size was different, the value of the spiritual Jade would naturally be different.
Normally, the price of spirit jades in the market was based on the average size of the most common spirit Jade. As for the egg-sized piece in Lin Yi's hand, its actual value was only a little more than half a piece. People would only reluctantly accept it if it was two or three pieces. As for the large spiritual Jade that he had given to Meng Tong before, he would be very happy even if it was just one or two pieces.
Of course, there was another rule to pay attention to, and that was to never be dishonest and act as three hands. Once discovered by the patrolling management staff, it was a small matter to cripple one's cultivation on the spot. There was no way to reason with them even if they were beaten to death!
These managers were all Masters of the law enforcement Hall, and they had the power to decide the life and death of the Sky Class Island disciples. So, even if it was something they wanted, they had to follow the rules! (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
