Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 35 Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce
"I just said it casually. Before you can protect yourself, Da Mu's identity cannot be exposed."

Gula took out the advanced ball containing medicinal herbs and said, "Since the start of the school year, we have not had more classes than days off. I will go alone this time and you stay at the academy."

Tang San knew that Gula was carrying a legacy and had many methods, so he nodded: "Then be careful, take this with you."

He took out a set of hidden arrows, fiddled with them, and said, "This is a hidden weapon I made. If you pull the trigger, it can fire arrows. If you catch the enemy by surprise, there's a chance I can kill Soul Master."

"Okay, I'll accept it."

Gula put on the hidden arrow curiously. His wrist was wrapped, which made him a little uncomfortable. However, as a killer weapon, it just made up for his lack of lethality.

Tang San smiled, "Be careful, when you come back, I'll give you another surprise."

"Then I'll wait for your surprise."

Gula wondered what the surprise would be, a hidden weapon, or a new secret skill of the Tang Sect?

He shook his head in his heart. No matter what it was, Tang San was willing to share it with him, which meant that he already regarded him as his own.

He could be better to Tang San from now on.

Gula waved her hand and said, "I'm leaving now. Please ask the dean for leave for me."

He waved his sleeves and ran out of the garden like the wind.

"Huh? I'm asking for leave?"

Tang San lost his composure and said speechlessly, "Then I might as well go sell medicine instead of listening to Director Li's nagging again."

He walked towards the teaching office helplessly to ask for leave for Gula.

……

Three days later, Shenmu City.

This is one of the eighteen main cities of the Tiandou Empire and is also the location of the Advanced Academy of Botany. One-third of the city's soul masters are plant-based. Everywhere you go is green and full of lush vegetation and trees.

Outside Shenmu City, the land is flat and open, but not far away are endless mountains. Because it is located in the central area of ​​the continent, it is the most comprehensive medicinal materials circulation market on the continent and an important grain producing area in southern Tiandou.

Gula paid the entrance fee and walked into Shenmu City. A hundred-meter-high city wall stood behind him. People were coming and going on the streets, jostling each other. The fragrance of medicine covered up the stench of people.

Stopping a passerby dressed as a businessman, Gula's eyes shone with a faint blue light, and he used his supernatural power to hint: "Who is the most honest medicine merchant in Shenmu City? What force is behind it?"

The passerby's impatient eyes met Gula's, his gaze lost, he stood there in a daze, and slowly said: "Big chambers of commerce all value integrity, I've never heard of anyone being cheated."

Gula slapped his head. He was suffering from paranoia. He only thought the worst of others and forgot that the Chamber of Commerce was actually doing business seriously and would definitely not cheat people. At least his medicinal herbs were not worth them violating their integrity.

To be on the safe side, he asked, "Among the chambers of commerce with the best reputations, which one has the highest acquisition price recently?"

"Seven Treasures Chamber of Commerce, Wuhun Chamber of Commerce, Shenmu Chamber of Commerce, Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce, the prices are similar, they... they..."

The passersby looked struggling, as if the question touched on a sensitive topic.

Gula frowned. His superpower was not strong enough. He could not hypnotize an ordinary person for too long. He increased the output of his superpower and after asking questions, he hypnotized passers-by to forget about him.

After doing all this, Gula turned and left.

The passerby stood there, confused: "What was I planning to do just now? How could I have forgotten?"

Unable to recall what had happened, the passerby gave up thinking about it and returned to the street. After selecting from several chambers of commerce, Gula chose the Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce.

If it is a matter of safety, he should choose the Qibao Chamber of Commerce, which has an auxiliary sect as its backing.

But since several chambers of commerce have reached a tacit understanding to control the price of medicine, if you want to sell it at a high price, you have to find a chamber of commerce that can bargain.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's purchase of medicinal materials is more out of a desire to not fall behind others. In fact, it does not have much demand for body-building and bone-strengthening ointment.

At least before they realize the benefits of physical strength to soul power cultivation, they will not spend a lot of money to snatch medicinal materials from the Spirit Hall.

The Spirit Hall has too many people, so they must control costs. Moreover, they are too strong and will not offer too high a price.

The Shenmu Chamber of Commerce is a local snake, so it is best not to take risks.

The name of the Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce may seem unfamiliar, but when it comes to the Seven Saints Alliance behind the major fighting arenas, many people on the Douluo Continent know that this is a force composed of seven major families and spread throughout the Douluo Continent.

The seven great families are the great nobles of the two empires. The martial spirits inherited in the families are at least high-level martial spirits. With the great fighting spirit arena, they make a fortune every day and are so wealthy that they can rival a country.

If it weren't for the fact that the seven major families couldn't work together completely, with the soul masters they recruited in the Great Soul Fighting Arena, they wouldn't be able to replace the top three sects, but they would definitely have no problem replacing any two of the bottom four sects.

The Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce under the Seven Saints Alliance, and most of its stores are near or inside the large fighting arena in the city.

Gula asked along the way and successfully found the Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce outside the Great Fighting Spirit Arena.

The Seven Saints Chamber of Commerce is located in the city center, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters. When you walk into the store, you will see all kinds of exquisite decorations displayed in the spacious store.

The light golden walls give people a sense of grandeur, and form a contrast with the simple and elegant tables, chairs and sofas. The faint floral fragrance makes people feel as if they are in a garden. The plant-type soul beast in the corner is trapped in a wooden box, creating fresh air.

"What do you need, sir?"

Seeing the disguised Gula, a woman in cheongsam came out, bowed slightly, the curve of her chest trembled, and her soft voice was captivating.

Depraved, so depraved.

Is this the chamber of commerce chaired by a great noble? Gula has broadened his horizons today.

"I have a batch of medicinal herbs for a body-building and bone-strengthening ointment. I can make about 6,000 doses of the ointment. What's your price?"

Gula only left behind a thousand doses of medicinal herbs, which could last for about a year for three people. After they were used up, they would wait until the price of the herbs stabilized before buying more.

The waitress in cheongsam was shocked when she heard this. Working in the Chamber of Commerce, she had to have a general idea of ​​the prices of various items. The recently famous body-building and bone-strengthening ointment had been sold for nearly a hundred gold soul coins per serving. You have to know that this was only the daily amount for soul masters below the Soul Venerable level!
Soul Masters and Soul Sect members can consume two portions of ointment a day, Soul Kings can consume three portions of ointment a day, and so on. The higher the level of cultivation, the more ointment is consumed.

Soul masters' fanatical pursuit of becoming stronger has caused the demand for medicinal materials related to body-building and bone-strengthening ointment to exceed supply. Most of the medicinal materials on the market have been purchased and made into ointment.

If we want new medicinal herbs to appear, we have to wait until next year when the herbs grow. Otherwise, the scattered herbs provided by herbalists on the market will not be enough to meet consumption.

The waiter was more enthusiastic. "Please take a seat, sir. Have some tea."

She bent down to make tea for Gula, but unfortunately Gula didn't look away and didn't respond directly as he did to other guests in the past.

The waitress smiled, her lips curled up gently, "The major chambers of commerce have reached an agreement. The purchase price of the medicinal ingredients for the body-building and bone-strengthening ointment is ten gold coins."

"However, since you have such a large quantity of medicinal herbs, I'd like to make friends with you and give you a price of eleven gold coins per unit on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce. What do you think?"
