A gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is worth more than just a token of affection...
If you send a goose feather from afar, the other party will definitely be flattered; but if you send a bunch of goose feathers and everyone who sees them can get one, then the other party can only show a stupid expression of "as long as you are happy".
Now that he realizes this, he never mentions giving Tao Rusu a gift.
Otherwise, the corners of Su Ruoli's mouth would continue to droop 15 degrees.
This is the right thing to do.
As for whether it is evenly distributed or not, we will talk about it later.
Tao Rusu didn't insist on it and didn't take it to heart.
She is a girl who is easy to fool about things that she doesn't care about, and she is carefree like a good brother.
Just like Kong Wen, Bai Yu was able to trick Kong Wen into running to the store three times and paying for it out of his own pocket with just a bottle of Nutri-Express.
After breakfast, Bai Yu went out directly. At Su Ruoli's reminder, he put on a mask.
Because the news from the News Department was released, the popularity has remained high, and he was forced to become a well-known figure in Penglai College.
After leaving the villa, the next step is...
"I need to buy some medicinal herbs, and then apply for an alchemy furnace room."
After a period of intensive study, Bai Yu gradually understood the basic rules of Danding Academy. "But I'm not even an alchemist, so I probably can't apply for the alchemy furnace room."
You need to take an exam to get a Danshi certificate.
You must also go to a formal institution in Daxia to undergo assessment, otherwise you must wait for the annual alchemist assessment within the academy.
This means that Baiyu will have to wait another eight months.
Eight months is enough to directly take the exam to become a second-grade alchemist.
"Forget it, let's go to the trading market."
He went out and got on the bus.
Following the instructions in the student handbook, after a forty-minute drive, we arrived at the trading market located in the heart of Penglai College.
This place is located at the junction of several major colleges and is also a place where students can trade freely. It can be simply understood as a stall area.
The economic system of the entire Penglai College is quite active, with both inflows and outflows.
For example, agricultural colleges will sell rice grown within the college and put canned food made from the school’s agricultural products on the shelves of supermarkets.
The weapons students need will be forged in the Equipment Refining Academy, the elixirs they need will be produced by the Alchemy Academy, and the spiritual herbs, medicines and plants will come from the Spirit Control Academy. The maintenance and construction of the infrastructure will be done by the Heaven and Earth Academy.
The Chuanwu Academy has no production capacity but only consumption capacity, but in fact... the students of the Chuanwu Academy are the main force in conquering the Shadow World.
Penglai Academy is located at the entrance to the world's largest shadow world, and it also has another name, 'Abyss'.
From here to the Abyss layer, the current exploration record is the forty-fourth layer.
The first to tenth floors are the shallow layers; the tenth to twentieth floors are the middle layers; the twenty to thirty floors are the lower layers, and below that are the deep layers.
If the abyss is not cleaned up regularly, the disaster beasts and alien species in the abyss will spread out.
However, the shadow world is a disaster, but also a blessing.
Each of the forty layers of the abyss has different depths, areas, and appearances.
So far, only the fifteenth floor has been fully explored. There are still many unexplored areas on each floor below the 20th floor, with unknown dangers, but there are also a large number of ancient relics, never-before-seen spiritual herbs, ancient books, materials dropped by monsters and other good things.
More than 90% of Penglai Academy's wealth comes from the products of this abyss, and many students have become rich by conquering the abyss.
Every student who is good at fighting has to deal with the abyss, and many senior students fight in the abyss all year round without showing up.
More than 70% of the students in the top 100 of the list spend eight months in the abyss every year, leaving only four months for rest and practice in Penglai Academy. The level of their internal conflict makes people want to lie down.
However, the mortality rate is also correspondingly high.
Once you enter the abyss, there is a risk of death.
News of disappearances and deaths could be heard every month, and for this reason, the collective disappearance of the Thousand Dust Society was not taken seriously.
The materials obtained from the abyss can be sold directly to the college, and Penglai College will purchase them with the corresponding credits; they can also be sold through free trade, after all, these are the students' spoils of war.
In order to handle these freely traded materials, a trading platform is naturally needed, so an area was set aside as the students' free trading area, commonly known as the stall area.
There are also some fixed shops here, some of which are offices of fixed associations, such as Danding College and Yuling College; some are shops run by individuals, most of whom are graduates or family members of employees.
However, more than 50% of them are mobile stalls.
When Bai Yu first arrived at the rotten area, he felt like he was walking into a farmers' market. Every stall sold different things, including raw, cooked, and dead.
Chapter 289: Stealing Bamboo Shoots?
Wandered around the stall area for a while.
It's like using a knife to pull your butt, and it opens your eyes.
This place is not big, but it has a lot of people.
Bai Yu had just taken a few steps inside when he was stopped by someone.
"Brother, give me a chance!" The brother smiled very healthily, and he must be using Western toothpaste.
Bai Yu was pulled over as if possessed by a ghost, and after a few steps he saw the other party's stall. Most of the things on it were abnormal, and the prices were very expensive.
He finally realized where his sense of déjà vu about the stall area came from.
Isn’t this just a computer city?
No wonder when introducing the stall area in the student handbook, it was emphasized that freshmen should not go there alone.
It seems that the price gouging here is quite serious. If you don't know the specific market price, you will be easily ripped off.
Especially freshmen who have credits.
It’s like a newbie who enters a computer mall. The other party only needs a simple test to expose the newbie who seems calm and confident - what configuration do you need?
If the latter answers "I can play League of Legends", then the battle can probably be declared a KO in advance.
No matter how much you pretend to be confident, you will most likely become a lamb here.
So Bai Yu chose the most appropriate method. A fan-shaped statistical chart appeared in his eyes. With an attitude of three parts ridicule, three parts indifference, and four parts indifference, he gave a mental blow to the senior who tried to rip him off, until the other party felt uncomfortable with the domineering look.
Then he casually displayed his extraordinary strength of the second level, forcing the other party to retreat.
Whether to overcharge customers depends on the situation. If you are too strong and still dare to overcharge customers, it would be reasonable for them to come and smash your stall next time.
Transactions must also adhere to the spirit of contract. Acting recklessly like this will not end well.
Therefore, it is reasonable that the stall areas are gradually covered by online delivery channels.
Su Ruoli would open the information terminal from time to time to check Penglai College's unique app 'Penglai Department Store'.
If it weren't for the high quality requirements for spiritual herbs and medicines of the second grade and above, Bai Yu wouldn't want to make the trip himself.
This is also his personal habit. Although online shopping is very convenient, he is still used to buying daily necessities and fresh fruits at the market himself.
After passing through some stalls, walking past the mobile stalls on the periphery, and entering the inner area with fixed signs, the stall area becomes the place where accessories are sold in the scenic area.
Various goods are placed in glass cabinets, which look more upscale than those on street stalls.
Bai Yu took a quick look and turned to walk towards the office opened by Yuling Society. It would be more convenient to buy here, and the price would be relatively cheaper.
"Hello, this is the Yulingshe Office." The receptionist was a girl with a chubby hair. She was bored and scrolling through the chat group with her pen. When she saw people, she stood up immediately and had a very good attitude.
"I need some spiritual herbs and medicines." Bai Yu took out the medicinal materials written in advance and placed them on the counter.
The latter took a look, took out a pen and circled it: "Sorry, this spiritual medicine is out of stock in the office. It will take at least next week to pick it up. As for the other spiritual herbs, they can be delivered now."
Bai Yu took a look at the sold-out elixir, which turned out to be Yunqiancao, a necessary material for refining the Sword Qi Pill.
"Isn't Yunqiancao a common medicinal herb? Why is it sold out so quickly?"
"If you're also an alchemist, you should know how to refine the newly released Sword Qi Pills, right? A lot of people wanted to try them out, so they sold out yesterday." The receptionist grinned. "Pre-orders are already booked for a week later."
"Is that so?" Bai Yu accepted it. "Then please help me mix these herbs."
“Okay,” the receptionist Xiaoyun said, “Please scan the code and pay directly.”
Bai Yu took a quick look and found that these spiritual herbs and medicines were not cheap, costing more than 270 credits.
An average student can only earn 20 to 30 credits a month working in the ground staff department, and this is an easy job that is in short supply.
The second-grade spiritual herbs are easy to deal with, but the third-grade purple copper shoots are the most valuable spiritual herb, which is worth 100 credits.
"So, spend money... according to your means."
Bai Yu touched his chin and wondered whether he should set up a stall here to help people make pills?
Anyway, there is a guaranteed rule, so there is no need to worry about failure.
Xiaoyun confirmed the payment and turned to walk inside: "Please wait."
Baiyu is waiting to pick up the goods.
About ten minutes later, the receptionist came back with a box of packed herbs and medicines. "Please count them. We are not responsible once they leave the counter."
Bai Yu picked up the spiritual herb to identify it, and made his own distinction based on the knowledge in his memory. He could also directly sense the changes in the spiritual energy on it through his subtle state of mind.
Then he remembered that he seemed to have a cheat.
【Sword Apricot, good quality】
【Feiyun fruit, high quality】
【…】
Check once to make sure the quantities match.
The last one is a third-grade herb.
【Purple copper bamboo shoots, excellent quality】
Bai Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, nothing is missing."
With these, at least the Purple Extreme Pill can be refined today.
"Thank you for your patronage." Xiaoyun saw the guest off and said, "Please come back next time."
"Yes." Bai Yu felt that he would definitely come here often in the future.
He walked out with the box, and then put the spiritual herbs into the inventory. The items placed in the inventory will have a long shelf life and the spiritual energy will not dissipate.
After that, I spent more than half an hour wandering around the stall area and found a shop that also sold herbal medicine. I bought some good quality Yun Qiancao at a price slightly higher than the market price.
He was about to leave the stall area and go to Danding College.
I happened to pass by the Yulingshe office and heard a quarrel coming from inside.
"How do you do things?"
A senior student in green clothes accused the receptionist, "Didn't I tell you to keep that copper bamboo shoot? Why did you sell it?"
"But, that one is not scheduled."
The receptionist Xiaoyun replied weakly: "According to the regulations of the Yuling Society..."
"What rules are you talking about? I'm the one in charge here!"
The office manager scolded: "Can you please think before you act?"
The receptionist lowered her head, tears of grievance streaming down her face, but she bit her lip and refused to admit her mistake.
Although she sold the goods that were not pre-ordered in accordance with regulations, it was not her fault.
The person in charge must have agreed with others that he doesn't plan to use the public account... This is definitely not the first time he has done this.
The previous receptionists all knew that simply reporting it would be useless and would be suppressed.
She turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to the person in charge. She thought that if she was fired, she was fired. At worst, she could find a new job.
As a result, when he turned around, he saw Bai Yu passing by the door, and their eyes met.
The person in charge also noticed this and immediately asked, "Is this the person who bought the copper bamboo shoots?"
"Ah? No." Xiaoyun denied it immediately.
But the person in charge had already chased after him, shouting, "Sir, please stay and return the copper bamboo shoots. We can compensate you at the original price!"
Bai Yu was walking fine when he was blocked and his expression showed a hint of displeasure.
