C2207 Redbud Chamber of Commerce
While Chen Xiao was looking around the port, a young man who didn't look that old walked towards him and said in a promotional tone.
"Only two Divine Origin Stones?" Chen Xiao paused for a moment before saying.
The young man looked troubled, his eyes a little anxious as he hurriedly said, "Senior, please hire two Divine Origin Stones to be your guide. We can't lose any more."
He faintly smiled. It wasn't that he felt that two divine essence stones were too little, but rather that it was too few.
It had to be known that the Island Entering Token he bought just now was a thousand Divine Origin Stones each. In comparison, hiring a guide with two Divine Origin Stones for one day was already very cheap.
Besides the first young man who came forward to chat with him, there were quite a few others waiting to be hired.
There were many people who worked as guides and would often be surrounded by a group of cultivators. It seemed that the competition was quite big.
It seemed like it wouldn't be an easy thing for these ordinary mortals to survive on this golden island.
"Senior?" The young man asked carefully.
"En, then you. If you are satisfied with your stroll, I will also give you another Divine Origin Stone." Chen Xiao said lightly.
"Yes, thank you senior." The young man was overjoyed.
He knew that he had gotten lucky this time and met a good person.
He grew up on a golden island. Although he didn't have much talent for cultivation, he did have a lot of experience.
He had met many cultivators who were very stingy, especially cultivators like him who were not skilled enough to even look at them with contempt.
There were generous cultivators, but very few.
This time, he made up his mind. He must do a good job with this guide.
The young man turned his head slightly and glanced at the golden-haired mermaid behind Chen Xiao. His eyes flashed with amazement and envy, but he immediately shifted his gaze away, not daring to look at her for long.
He also knew that most cultivators viewed their women or concubines as their wives. Sometimes, just a single glance could cause a bloody battle.
He had seen this happen quite a few times on the Gold Island.
Even though he had seen many beauties, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This woman was truly a beauty rarely seen in the world, especially her delicate and pure personality, which made her even more lovable.
He couldn't help but feel even more envious.
It wasn't just this young man, but many cultivators in the port were shocked as well. They couldn't help but glance at the golden-haired beauty a few more times.
However, Chen Xiao was definitely not one of them.
With Yue Yao, Ni Chang, and Xiao Ling as his companions, he would have no regrets in his life.
At this moment, a beautiful white figure involuntarily floated through his mind. He faintly sighed, shook his head, and stopped thinking about it.
In addition, the golden-haired beauty was actually left with Xiaolong. Judging from his stuttering appearance at the time, how could Chen Xiao, who was an experienced person, not know about it?
After all, it was time for him to find a suitable age.
The golden-haired Mermaid had the cultivation of the early stage of the Rebirth Realm and was also of the Sea Clan. The two of them could be considered to be compatible.
"Lead the way."
"Yes."
"Yes." The young man nodded and walked to the entrance of the port.
The three of them left the port at a leisurely pace, and they slowly walked towards the interior of the island.
The further in they went, the more noisy it became. The island was really bustling and lively. As soon as they left the port, they found themselves in a residential area. There were food, drinks, and a large market.
At a glance, the people who were setting up stalls here were all cultivators, and many of them were in the Saint realm.
It was obvious that some of the things they were selling were things that cultivators needed.
"Come take a look. Take a look, we've found a nameless ore at the bottom of the abyss. It's very strange, if we miss it then it's gone."
"I don't know what this strange treasure is. I found it in the belly of a demon beast that has reached the sage realm. It's quite valuable, let's take a look."
These cultivators that were high and mighty in the eyes of the mortals were currently shouting at the top of their lungs, making this scene rather interesting.
Seeing that Chen Xiao was interested, the youth quickly said in a low voice, "Senior shouldn't be fooled, these are all scams. That nameless ore was created by a cultivator, and that so-called Heavenly Treasure is only a piece of stone.
"Oh, really?" When Chen Xiao heard this, he was immediately delighted.
The young man nodded vigorously.
The golden-haired mermaid behind him could not help but look around curiously.
After losing her previous dangerous situation, she was no different from an ordinary mermaid. It was just that the innate spirit blood in her body had caused her to experience all kinds of misfortune from birth.
Who knew if the innate spirit blood was a blessing or a curse to her? Who could say for sure?
Chen Xiao smiled and looked away.
He only felt that the noisy scene in front of him was very good and had a sense of life. It was a rare occasion for him to have a short period of peace during his years of being hunted.
As for these so-called treasures, he obviously didn't believe them.
Things like "picking up the loot" only existed in stories.
No one would be a fool to believe such a thing, especially these cultivators. They were all intelligent and would definitely not suffer a loss.
"May I know where senior wishes to go first?" After pausing for a moment, the young man asked.
"Is there any place on this island that is suitable for selling things? The things I want to sell are very expensive. Normal places wouldn't be able to afford to eat." Chen Xiao said lightly.
Hearing this, the youth immediately had an idea. After organizing his thoughts, he said, "On this golden island, there are only two places senior wishes to go. One is the Myriad Treasures Store, the other is a pavilion with more than one treasure."
"Tell me, what's the difference between the two?" Chen Xiao continued.
"Yes," The young man hurriedly nodded and said: "The difference isn't that big. The two places sell all kinds of cultivators' items, pills and magic tools, and also accept all kinds of things, so the price is basically the same. The only difference is, behind this Plethora Gem Tower is the island master of the Gold Island, and behind this pavilion is the Redbud Chamber of Commerce."
"Redbud Merchant Guild?" Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed as he asked. This was the first time he heard this name.
It was quite normal for the Island Lord to open the largest Plethora Gem Tower here.
However, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion did not originate from the Golden Island, but it was able to establish itself in this place. It was even able to stand on equal footing with the Myriad Treasures Store. It was clear that its origins were not small.
One must know that this golden island belonged to this mysterious Island Master. It could be said that this island was his territory.
Logically speaking, he should have the right to interfere and withdraw taxes from all the transactions that took place on the golden island.
Especially when it came to trading in medicinal pills and magical equipment. The amount involved was enormous, and the profits from it were incomparably generous. How could they be willing to let others have a bite to eat?
