202 Chapter 202 Dream Master
The woman who sold the realm Pearl was very fierce and not to be trifled with. The two people who had surrounded the stall seemed to be reserve Summoners who had just arrived in Shangjing and wanted to see the place. So, they did not argue with the woman. They muttered a few words and left.
1100 gold coins sounded simple, but Xia Pingan had only exchanged the Child of Fortune and bianque’s realm Pearl for about 500 gold coins. Among realm pearls, 1100 gold coins was considered a little expensive. It was enough to buy three or four ordinary realm pearls. Even in Shangjing city, 1100 gold coins could buy a house.
Realm pearls were priced in this way. Those realm pearls that had a relatively high success rate of fusion, could have a summoning slot, and would not die even if the fusion failed were often sold at a very high price. This type of realm Pearl was very popular.
There was no shortage of rich and powerful Summoners in Shangjing. For those Summoners, this kind of realm Pearl was their favorite.
“What are you still standing there for? do you want to buy it? if not, hurry up and leave!” The woman glanced at Xia ping ‘an. Seeing that Xia ping’ an was well-dressed and seemed to be rich, her tone softened a little.
Xia Pingan smiled. miss, I’m standing here because I want to buy it. I really want to buy it, but the price is indeed a little expensive. Can you make it cheaper?”
Hearing that Xia Pingan wanted to buy it, the woman perked up a little and sized Xia Pingan up again. sure, I’ll give you a discount of 20 gold coins!
don’t make it 20 gold coins cheaper. Miss, you’re also a straightforward person. You’re thinking about the price of this realm Pearl, about 1000 gold coins. Round off the 100 gold coins, I’ll buy it for 1000 gold coins!”
1000 gold coins was not a small amount to Xia Pingan, but this realm Pearl could summon an assassin. Not only could the assassin appear and disappear unpredictably, but the assassin could also continuously integrate with other realm pearls to improve his abilities. Xia Pingan felt that this realm Pearl would be very useful, so he was not stingy with the 1000 gold coins.
As expected, the woman’s eyes lit up when she heard Xia Pingan’s words. can you pay now?” Or do you want me to seal the bead and wait for you? If it’s Feng Zhu, it won’t be this price, hehe.”
Sealing realm pearls was also a rule for selling realm pearls in the night market. If someone liked a realm Pearl but couldn’t afford it, he could negotiate with the seller and let the seller seal the realm Pearl for a few days. When he had enough money, he would come back to buy it. The buyer would pay a deposit in advance. After that, the seller was not allowed to display or trade realm pearls to others within the date that they had agreed on.
As the buyer and the seller were not familiar with each other and it was a large transaction, the guarantee of the trade would be involved if the buyer sealed the bead. Therefore, the night market had a guarantee bank. As long as the buyer paid a small fee, the guarantee bank would provide a guarantee for the trade. The seller would store the bead in the guarantee bank. When the date was right, the seller could take out the bead and sell it. If the buyer broke his promise, he would bear the corresponding loss.
“I’ll give you gold notes, we can trade now!”
“Alright, I’ll sell it to you for 1000 gold coins!” The woman said straightforwardly.
Xia Pingan directly took out a Gold Note of 1000 gold coins from his portable equipment space and handed it to the woman. After checking the gold Note and finding no problem with it, the woman then handed the realm Pearl of ” Tian Guang Lun Yong ” to her. After that, they completed the trade and went their separate ways.
Two days ago, Xia ping ‘an had thought that his ” net worth ” of about 10000 gold coins would be quite affordable. He did not expect that in the blink of an eye, he would get an Assassin’s realm Pearl, and his net worth would shrink by one-tenth.
As Xia Pingan walked in the night market, he glanced at the realm pearls on the side of the street. There were many realm pearls on the stalls in the night market, many of which Xia Pingan had fused with before. He had just spent a large sum of money, so if he wanted to buy more realm pearls, Xia Pingan would find those cheaper ones to buy.
Very quickly, Xia Pingan spent another 700 gold coins and bought four realm pearls from a few stalls.
Out of the four realm beads, there were two divine power realm beads. One had the words ” Xu Ke ” and the other had the words ” Shao pumin “. For the two divine power realm beads, a successful fusion would only increase one’s divine power. The death rate of failure was very high, especially the latter one. Therefore, it was relatively cheap. The two realm beads added up to just over 200 gold coins.
Other than these two realm pearls, there were also two other realm pearls with summoning spell slots. One of them had the words ” Gou long ” on it, while the other had the words ” Tang oath ” on it. It was said that if one fused with the ” Gou long ” realm Pearl, one could master an earth-type summoning spell. If one fused with the ” Tang oath ” realm Pearl, one could cast a buff-type spell on the summoned character, greatly increasing the summoned character’s combat power. If the fusion failed, one might die, so the price was not expensive.
After walking around the night market, 1700 gold coins were spent in the blink of an eye. Xia Pingan’s net worth had shrunk by one-sixth in an instant. He was really spending money like water.
However, Xia Pingan didn’t stop. He continued to shop at the night market, preparing to buy a few more realm pearls. Xia Pingan calculated that if he used his remaining assets sparingly, he should be able to reach the two-sun realm.
The one sun realm required 630 points of divine power to break through, while the two sun realm required 840 points of divine power to break through. In order to break through to the two sun realm, the upper limit of divine power in his secret mandala had to exceed 1470 points.
As Xia Pingan strolled around the night market, he muttered and pondered in his heart. He still had to find a profitable business. Otherwise, the money he had was really not enough to spend. As for a profitable business, it was not easy to earn the money of the poor. It was best to earn money from the rich. There were many rich people in Shangjing. What kind of spending habits did this group have?
Health and longevity were what everyone hoped for, not only the rich. He could summon Hua Tuo and a first-class Alchemist, so he should have some competitiveness, but this competitiveness was not the core competitiveness. What he had, others had it too, so it was unrealistic to rely on this to make big money.
Besides, what else did those rich people care about? of course, they cared about how to continue their glorious and rich lives for thousands of generations. Although it was a bit broad, it should be a starting point.
The most profitable business was to engage in a dog-eat-dog business. However, it was hard to come by a lucky boy like sun Hao. He was only a one-sun realm Summoner. In a place like Shangjing, where crouching tigers and hidden dragons were hiding, he would be tired of living if he wanted to engage in a dog-eat-dog business.
Xia Pingan walked around the night market and unknowingly came to a lively place in the night market.
There was a 4-storey attic on one side of the street. The attic was brightly lit while the wind chimes on the attic jingled in the night wind like playing music. There was a courtyard outside the attic which was connected to the night market. There was a waterside pavilion in the courtyard. It was pretty tranquil with willow leaves and a lotus flower in the air. There was a small square outside the courtyard where dozens of brilliant black four-wheeled carriages were parking in line.
When Xia ping ‘an was looking around the attic, a noble lady in a dark green velvet cloak and a black muslin hat with her face covered was escorted by a guard and a maid down the attic. After passing through the winding corridor of the waterside pavilion, she came out of the side door of the courtyard and got on a black four-wheeled carriage before leaving.
In the next second, a 12 – 13 year old teenager in cyan clothes walked out of the attic. After passing through the courtyard and coming to the square outside, he shouted loudly without changing his look, ” the one who has got the No. 8 plate, please have a look in carefree building.
Upon hearing this, the door of a carriage pulled by two or four pure white horses in the small square opened, and a middle-aged man with a big belly came out.
“Boss Xu, you’ve come to carefree tower too?” The window of one of the carriages opened, revealing a bespectacled, refined-looking middle-aged man. He greeted the man who got off the carriage.
I’ve had a strange dream recently, and it’s been churning in my head. It wasn’t easy for me to get someone to come and line up a sign. I’d like to ask master shuiyue to cure it and see if it’s good or bad, ” boss Xu said with a smile.
Okay, okay, you go first. I’m the 11th. I’ll come back in a while, ” the middle-aged man with glasses said with a smile.
Boss Xu nodded and quickly came to the young man in green. He respectfully took out a plate and handed it over.
The young man took the sign and looked at it. He nodded and then led boss Xu into the courtyard, passed through the waterside pavilion, and then went upstairs.
Many people in the carriages were looking at boss Xu with envy.
Is there such a big scene just to unravel a dream? He actually made so many people wait here.
Xia ping ‘an looked at the four-wheeled carriages that were waiting for them. Damn it, none of them were rented. They were all private carriages, and they all had Coachmen, guards, and maids. They were all rich people in Shangjing.
This was too outrageous.
Seeing a kind-looking man passing by, Xia Pingan quickly blocked the man’s way and asked, ” brother, this way please. May I ask what this place is for? why are there so many people lining up? ”
The man glanced at Xia Pingan. Seeing that Xia Pingan spoke politely and was dressed in a decent manner, he said patiently, ” this is the carefree building, where master shuiyue dissects dreams for people. Master shuiyue is the most famous dream-deciphering master in Shangjing. He can use his dream to predict good and bad luck, as well as misfortune and fortune. Don’t you know that? ”
Xia Pingan blinked. Dream interpretation master? There was such a profession in Shangjing. He was ignorant and didn’t know about this profession before.
“Oh, are those people in line here to interpret the dream?”
“Of course!”
“May I ask, how much does it cost for master shuiyue to unravel a dream?”
“Hehe, do you think you can do it just because you have money? you even need to queue up. If you queue up at master shuiyue’s place, each queue number will cost 30 gold coins,”
30 gold coins for a dream? Xia ping ‘an looked at the dozens of carriages lining up outside. He calculated in his heart and was instantly shocked.
‘F * ck, if I do this, I can earn thousands of gold coins in one night. I can’t even earn this much money from a double-crossing.’
hahaha, brother, from your looks, you must have just arrived in Shangjing city. 30 gold coins for solving a dream is nothing. Some fortune-tellers can easily ask for tens or hundreds of gold coins for a simple divination. Those rich people just believe in this nonsense. the person who was questioned by Xia Pingan even gave Xia Pingan a disdainful look. Then, he shook his head and left with a sense of superiority.
In less than three minutes, Xia Pingan saw boss Xu, who had just gone upstairs, come down from upstairs and leave in a carriage.
30 gold coins in such a short time?
That spirited boy in green shouted from outside again,”the one who got the No. 9 plate, please come to carefree tower for a walk.”
The door of a carriage opened, and another woman wearing a Black Veil hat, who did not want others to see her face, got off the carriage with the help of a maidservant. She then walked into the courtyard with the boy in green and passed through the waterside pavilion corridor.
I wonder how powerful that Water Moon master is?
Xia Pingan thought to himself. With a thought, he used his long-distance vision ability to follow the woman and the maidservant into the carefree building.
The carefree building was luxurious and elegant, and there was incense in the building.
After entering the building, the maidservant of the girl who had just entered the building stayed in the small hall outside, leaving the girl in veil to enter the inner room after passing through a gate and a bead curtain under the guidance of a green-clothed boy servant.
An old man in a white robe was sitting behind a coffee table. He looked decent with white hair and a white beard. However, Xia Pingan felt that the old man was a little too delicate and deliberate. He seemed to lack the true demeanor of an expert.
The woman who came in took off her hat and revealed her original face. She was a woman in her forties who still had her charm.
The woman sat opposite the old man and said worriedly, ” master shuiyue, I had a dream the day before yesterday. In my dream, someone had suddenly sent a lot of cloth to my house and said that they would make clothes for me to wear. I wonder what kind of sign this was? Did my husband have a concubine outside again?”
