Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times
Chapter 74 Exchange Meeting
Once Shen Congxing came down from the iron chain, they headed down the mountain.
Ye Yu had thought the Ding family was small, but she was surprised to find that they actually had a large number of people, making it seem like a small village.
Dingjia Village is even more full of the charm of its original ecology, and its traditional cultural heritage is even more profound.
There are many terraced fields all around, layer upon layer, arranged in a staggered and orderly manner, with various shapes.
Ye Yu could sense that the spiritual energy here was even more abundant than that of Yunfeng Temple, which she had visited before.
Perhaps to welcome everyone's arrival, in the square not far away, people dressed in Miao costumes adorned with silver ornaments formed a circle and sang and danced.
Some young people were also inspired by this atmosphere and joined them.
Shen Congxing instructed Ye Yu and the others, "You wait here for Xiang Yu. Ah Xing and I will go report for duty first."
Ye Yu and the others waited for a while, but Zhang Xiangyu still didn't arrive.
Shen Yunjin and Shen Yunling also ran to the square and danced together.
Ye Yu was a little bored and decided to wander around.
She called out to the two Shen sisters, "I'm going to take a walk around. Keep an eye on Zhang Xiangyu."
Seeing that both of them had agreed, she walked towards the end of the square.
As soon as we stepped out of the square, we heard two people behind us discussing: "We heard there's a spontaneously organized exchange meeting by people from the ancient martial arts world on the west side of here. Shall we go check it out?"
"Let's go! I've heard that some big families or major sects will be selling some good items. What if we're lucky enough to stumble upon them?"
"I heard that some magical artifacts will also be sold."
"Really? Magical artifacts are incredible; their power is even greater than that of ordinary weapons."
Ye Yu was immediately intrigued when she heard about the exchange meeting.
She also wanted to see what kind of things were discussed here, and if it was suitable, she could set up a stall there.
Ye Yu slowed down, waiting for the two people behind her to pass her, then put on a hat and mask before following them.
Following the two men through a maze of turns, they arrived at a street and then entered a detached building.
It was spacious and tall inside, with many people's stalls arranged in an orderly manner, forming several aisles.
In the innermost open space, there is a large stone in the middle with the words "Testing Area" written on it.
Ye Yu guessed that this place might be used for on-site testing of magical artifacts or weapons.
Quite a few people have already come inside; it seems there are quite a few interested people.
She strolled around leisurely. She thought there wouldn't be many people selling religious artifacts, but to her surprise, there were many stalls with signs next to them.
Some sell items under the guise of "consecrated ritual implements," "Maoshan talismans," "Maoshan copper coin swords," and so on.
Ye Yu was dazzled by the sight of these signs.
However, she only needed to scan them with her divine sense to know that these so-called magical artifacts did not have much spiritual power at all.
Compared to these things, the talismans she crafted seemed utterly bizarre when they were spread around.
The best-selling items here are protective amulets, as well as amulets for praying for wealth or protection and good health.
They're not even cheap; a single so-called "Maoshan talisman" costs 20,000 yuan, and people are willing to buy them.
She felt a little depressed when she thought about how she was called crazy for selling amulets for 5,000 yuan each at the beginning.
However, she did find one or two genuine magical artifacts. Although they were well-made and looked exquisite, their functions were really not impressive and could be described as useless.
Most importantly, the price is ridiculously high.
Ye Yu dares to say without exaggeration that there is no magical artifact here that can compare to any talisman she has ever made.
"It seems that the magical artifacts from those two powerful families and sects are not as advertised as they seem."
She was somewhat disappointed. She had wanted to see just how powerful the magical artifacts in this world were so she could have a better understanding of them, but it seemed she wouldn't be able to encounter them.
She quickly toured the entire exchange meeting, and after walking through it all, she came to only one conclusion.
That is, there are many things that don't live up to their name, but are priced extremely high.
So she thought about it and figured she was just idling around anyway, and there were plenty of rich and gullible people around, so she might as well set up a stall herself and make some money to spend.
Just do it.
Ye Yu spread out a blanket in a corner and placed five amulets, five fireball talismans, and two mind-clearing talismans that she had made on the blanket.
Although there are many people here, very few people come here because she is in a corner.
A few people would occasionally come by, but seeing that Ye Yu had few items, they wouldn't even bother to ask the prices and would just turn around and leave.
Ye Yu was even more frustrated. Why was it always like this every time she set up her stall? Other stalls in the corners were bustling with people, but hers was deserted.
At that moment, a well-dressed woman came to the stall.
Instead of crouching down to examine the items on the stall, she picked up her stiletto heel and lightly tapped the fireball talisman, asking, "How much is this?"
"One hundred thousand per sheet."
Ye Yu disliked her attitude towards the talismans. She originally planned to sell these talismans for 50,000 each, but because she was unhappy, she directly asked for 100,000.
"What? One hundred thousand? Are you extorting me?"
The woman immediately exclaimed in surprise, but as if realizing she had lost her ladylike demeanor, she quickly put on airs again: "Can your things compare to those ancient martial arts sects? Even Maoshan talismans only sell for 20,000."
At this moment, a young man walked over and said, "Feng Yao, don't bother with this kind of person. He's just a small vendor. If you like, we can go to the Maoshan stalls and take a look. I'll buy you any talismans you want."
Feng Yao, however, refused to give up. She said to Ye Yu in a condescending tone, "Ten thousand, I'll give you ten thousand yuan, just give me this talisman."
"Not for sale." Ye Yu didn't bother to look at the two of them again and turned her head in another direction.
"Hmph! You wouldn't take the money I offered you, stop pretending to be so high and mighty."
Ye Yu laughed angrily: "Do you want to force me to buy or sell? I can sell these things as many times as I want, and to whomever I want. It's none of your business."
"Alright, I'd like to see if you can make this deal today."
Feng Yao also lost her temper. She raised her voice and shouted, "Are you trying to extort money from this vendor? You're selling talismans of this quality for 100,000 yuan each! Everyone, come and take a look! How can these compare to the talismans from Maoshan?"
Seeing the commotion, people gathered around.
The crowd noticed that the talismans at Ye Yu's stall were indeed half the size of those from Maoshan, and discussed, "How come there are scammers sneaking into this exchange meeting?"
"Yes, they make counterfeits, but they don't even try to make them look alike."
"They're actually selling it for 100,000 yuan? Do they really think everyone's so easy to fool?"
A young couple also gathered around. The girl said, "Feng Yao, you're really arrogant and domineering. It's clearly because you treated them badly that they didn't want to sell to you, and you're spreading rumors here."
