Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

The lights in Qicheng were bright, the city gates were always open, and ships were constantly coming and going.

There are several ships lined up in front of Guang Keqing.

First, a senior in the Nascent Soul stage checked you, and then gave you a token before you could enter.

Those who were passing by or staying for a short time were given temporary jade pendants, which were similar to temporary identification cards.

The validity period is thirty days. If it exceeds thirty days, you must use wild stones to renew it.

Nothing is prohibited in the city, but the official status of a city dweller will cost a considerable amount of money. According to a rough estimate, it is at least ten times more expensive than in Li City.

However, although it is ten times more expensive, its safety is beyond doubt. As a city with developed weapon refining facilities, Qicheng is also an upper city, so it is destined to have first-class safety.

Of course, it also has its own unique characteristics. Just by walking a few steps, Keqing can hear endless knocking sounds, ding-dang-dang, which is extremely pleasant to the ear.

This is not ordinary hammering, but forging, which more or less carries a hint of the Dao rhythm. Although it is as small as dust in the ocean, it is still the Dao rhythm, so it is certainly not as messy as ordinary people hammering iron.

Keqing also found that some people were sitting next to the blacksmith shop, listening to the sound of iron hammering and discussing something, which was quite interesting.

There are many inns and storytellers next to many blacksmith shops. Mortals and cultivators come and go, and there is no feeling of strict hierarchy.

Of course, this was just her rough observation, and the details are still unknown, but now this rough look seems to be pretty good no matter what, even on the surface.

"We are going to the Chamber of Commerce's resident meeting. Lord Li, would you like to go with me?"

"Hmm? What are you planning? So kind?"

"Hey, how can you say that? They just have good intentions and don't want you to waste your money. Don't you know that the people in Qicheng are very rich, but they are also very good at cheating you. People like you who look very impressive with a Lingshi ID card should be careful not to be cheated."

"Oh? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"

"Hey, they have a good eye. Even if there is one out of tens of thousands, they can just apologize. If they are tactful, they can pay some compensation. What else can they do? They can't kill anyone here."

"Of course, if you can do it quietly..."

"Snapped--"

As soon as he put his hand on his neck and made a gesture, he was hit in the face.

"Don't talk nonsense. Am I that kind of person? Let's go..."

"Okay~ I feel relieved with you around!"

Sure enough, he was paying attention to me.

Keqing shook her head and followed her towards the Chamber of Commerce headquarters.

It didn't take long before they arrived at the so-called Chamber of Commerce headquarters.

Looking at the magnificent scene in front of her, Keqing pondered for a long time.

"Is this really the headquarters of the Merchant Alliance? Why does it look so..."

"Haha, you think so too. This Merchant Alliance headquarters was built by the city lord. The city lord likes this and says that this will make us look rich and powerful and in line with our status."

Although she said so, Xiang Yanwu covered her face with her hands and spoke quietly.

"In fact, they just think we are being taken advantage of and want to tell others to rip us off."

"No way? Aren't you afraid..."

"Hey, it's your fault that you have such bad vision. If you are a businessman and don't have such bad vision, you will only be laughed at."

"and……"

He stuck out his lips to Yan Wu.

"As for Qicheng, there is no shortage of it..."

Having said this, Xiang Yanwu clasped his hands together and pleaded sincerely.

"So I'm asking you to help me check if it's real or not. To be honest, I'm a little confused about this city. There are too many cunning people."

Even you are worried about being cheated, how do you think I can handle it?

Keqing just felt too powerless to complain.

Forget it, since she trusts me so much, I'll just take a look.

Following Xiang Yanwu into the Chamber of Commerce’s headquarters, after several turns, we finally arrived at a large hall.

After Xiang Yanwu had some conversation with the Chamber of Commerce sign, the person in charge handed her a sign. She nodded and took it.

"Okay, we're right there, inspecting the goods!"

She pointed to an empty space in the busy hall. There were many empty spaces like this, with tables and chairs, carpets, tea, and a large open space.

Just to inspect the goods.

It was because Qi City was too deceptive that the Chamber of Commerce was very dissatisfied, so the city lord marked out a large area and said, "You can inspect the goods among yourselves, it's open and aboveboard, without any discrimination, to avoid the possibility that the goods might be replaced in the end."

If you can't find the problem even when inspecting the goods in person, it means you are a bad businessman. Don't complain about anything. You might as well go home and drink milk as soon as possible.

This incident left the members of the Chamber of Commerce speechless and they had no choice but to do this.

However, for basic privacy, these open spaces are also equipped with soundproof covers and anti-peeping barriers.

However, no matter how far she had been pulling Keqing, Xiang Yanwu had no intention of starting over.

Who is afraid of being aboveboard? Come, let's see who is biased!

I have a great general on my side, and he looks so aggressive as if he is going to the battlefield, and I am the trump card.

Keqing just wanted to ask, who gave you such confidence and made you believe in me so much?

"So, what exactly are you testing for?"

"Magic weapons... don't you know? What else can the city test if not the magic weapons?"

"..."

Seeing Keqing like this, Xiang Yanwu suddenly felt a little weak.

"You said before that you know something about refining equipment, you were not lying to me, were you..."

"no……"

"Huh, that's good..."

"but I

I only practiced with one weapon."

"!!!"

Xiang Yanwu was stunned!!

"Don't you know a little bit?!"

"Yes, I understand a little."

"You have a basic understanding of how to make a weapon."

“So I know a little bit about it!!”

Keqing didn't understand what she was thinking. So far, she had only practiced refining weapons seriously with Wanxiao's sword, and that was as a gift.

But Xiang Yanwu's eyes widened as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

So this is really just a little knowledge? ? Not the kind of person she thought was a superb refiner, but turned out to be a modest one.

So the "somewhat understanding" she said was not the "somewhat understanding" that she thought she had! ?

Xiang Yanwu felt like crying but had no tears!

If that's the case, why do you also say you know a little about elixirs and talismans? !

You are just a beginner in refining equipment, that doesn't mean you know a little bit, you are just a newbie!

"I trusted you so much, but you..."

Keqing also felt a little embarrassed, she thought it was something else.

"Why don't we find a professional to inspect the goods?"

"That's too late."

Xiang Yanwu had a sad face and picked up the sign.

"See? There's a countdown on it. There's a set time. If there's no problem with the goods, you have to take them."

She was very angry when she talked about this.

"This damn Lord of Qi City is obsessed with money. He even set a time limit for inspecting the goods. He said that if there are no problems, the goods can be taken away. He said that merchants must abide by contracts! It's so infuriating."

Well, it can be seen that he is indeed obsessed with money, otherwise he wouldn't have set a countdown for this thing.

Seeing Xiang Yanwu's miserable look, Keqing could only comfort her.

"Don't worry, I'll help you check it."

"..."

I'm tired and don't want to say anything.

Soon, the person to trade with arrived. He looked like a young man and I was quite fond of him.

"Are you Xiang Yanwu? The Chamber of Commerce that I'm doing business with."

"Well, you are Mortin? Has the stuff arrived?"

"I have brought it, please check the goods..."

As he spoke, he took out a few boxes from the storage bag and opened them. Inside were densely packed magical instruments of the second, third and fourth ranks. The highest one could be used at the Nascent Soul stage, and the lowest one was at the Foundation Establishment stage. They all looked like they were top-quality goods, full of spiritual energy.

"Try them out. They are all top-quality items. You can even try them out yourself. But you are limited to three of them. There is not enough time. After all, if you use so many magic tools, they will become second-hand goods."

"Can I try it?"

"Of course, how do you know it's good without trying it?"

The young man looked righteous and didn't seem to worry at all that his product was a fake.

Xiang Yanwu looked at him hesitantly.

Then she looked at the box and picked out the first one. She chose the second one from left and right, moving her hand back and forth for a long time. She looked at the young man's expression and frowned when she saw him, so she picked up another one. She picked the third one at random, which happened to contain the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Nascent Soul.

Keqing glanced at her expressionlessly without saying anything.

Xiang Yanwu couldn't tell whether the magic weapon was good or not. All she could do was to experiment with it. Only the ones that were good and had no problems were considered magic weapons.

The first item launched during the foundation-building period is a long hairpin for ladies. It looks like it is made of wood and has a peach blossom on it. In fact, it is a special kind of mineral. It just looks like wood grain on the surface and is called wood stone. It is a very good material for refining tools.

"go……"

With a shout, the spiritual power was infused extremely smoothly and pierced through the stone on the side in an instant.

"Yeah, not bad, top quality."

Xiang Yanwu nodded in satisfaction, then picked up the second sword, a ladies' long sword with a shimmering water-colored surface. She casually chopped with a burst of sword energy and easily chopped the rubble in front of her into powder.

"It seems true."

"See, I was right! I, Mo Ting, will never cheat anyone. Everyone knows that my goods are trustworthy."

Xiang Yanwu didn't listen, picked up the third handkerchief and handed it to Keqing.

"Yes, this is something that can only be done in the Nascent Soul stage. You can try it."

And Mo Ting did not expect that the woman next to him was actually a Nascent Soul cultivator, and he smiled unconsciously.

Keqing tried it and nodded slightly.

“Really, top quality.”

"Look! You can look at the others, but you can't try them out at will."

Xiang Yanwu curled her lips and looked around, but couldn't see anything at all. She only thought that each one was excellent.

So these are all good stuff and no scams?

After looking again and again, she couldn't see anything and looked at Keqing.

Keqing nodded, reached out, and took her storage bag.

"Then the inspection was successful.

"Okay, the deal is done..."
