After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

Elder Wei's expression changed, and he quickly picked up the Fire Spirit Stone to examine it.

After a moment, his expression turned serious, and he nodded to the woman in the red dress, "This is indeed a fire spirit stone!"

Upon hearing Elder Wei's confirmation, a hint of joy flashed in the woman's eyes. She quickly looked at Qin Chuan and said, "How many fire spirit stones do you have left? Our Wanbao Pavilion will take them all and buy them at the highest price on the market!"

Qin Chuan asked, "How much is it?"

"One thousand and five!"

"Five thousand?" Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in Qin Chuan's eyes.

Although fire spirit stones are precious, their market value is only around one thousand spirit crystals.

Unexpectedly, this woman was so generous, immediately raising the price to this level.

Before Qin Chuan could reply, the woman in the red dress, her eyes gleaming, hurriedly asked, "May I ask, young master, how many fire spirit stones like these do you have?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan thought for a moment and decided it was best not to sell too much at once.

Otherwise, it might cause some unnecessary trouble.

Thinking of this, he held up five fingers.

"Fifty?"

Seeing this, the woman in the red dress showed a hint of regret on her face.

After a moment, she said in a deep voice, "Fifty it is, even though it's a little less."

Qin Chuan shook his head and smiled, "Not fifty, but five hundred."

five hundred!

Upon hearing this, the woman in the red dress and Old Man Wei exchanged a glance, both able to see the surprise in each other's eyes.

The woman in the red dress asked uncertainly, "Are there really that many?"

Qin Chuan shrugged and said helplessly, "Do I look like someone who would lie?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the table was filled with a total of five hundred fire spirit stones.

The woman in the red dress stared wide-eyed at the sight.

Elder Wei was also stunned. He never expected that Qin Chuan actually had so many fire spirit stones.

Putting everything else aside, the five hundred fire spirit stones on the table alone are worth close to a million spirit crystals.

Thinking of this, Old Master Wei's gaze also became fervent.

"Young friend, please have a seat! I misjudged you earlier; I never expected you to have so many fine goods."

At the same time, the woman in the red dress bowed slightly and said apologetically, "If Wanbaoge has offended you just now, I hope you will be magnanimous and not take it to heart."

Qin Chuan waved his hand and laughed, "It's alright!"

Seeing this, the woman in the red dress smiled slightly and suggested, "Why don't you move to the fifth floor, young master? It would be more convenient for me to conduct the transaction with you then."

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan's lips curled slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Even a force like Wanbaoge, which has spread across the continent.

It's the same principle: strength speaks for itself, as can be seen from the two completely different attitudes before and after.

However, this strength refers to financial resources.

Gathering his thoughts, Qin Chuan put away the fire spirit stones on the table and nodded, saying, "Alright!"

Immediately, the three of them left the small room and went to the fifth floor.

Soon, led by the woman in the red dress, Qin Chuan arrived at a luxurious and spacious private room.

Inside the private room, the woman in the red dress bowed slightly and smiled, "Young master, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Tang Yao, and I am the owner of the Wanbao Pavilion in Fire Flame City."

"Pavilion Master?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan's eyes widened suddenly.

The woman in front of me looks to be no more than twenty years old, yet she is already the head of the Wanbao Pavilion in Fire Flame City?

As Tang Yao spoke, she smiled and invited Qin Chuan to sit down, and instructed several maids to serve tea.

At this moment, Tang Yao looked at Qin Chuan and asked, "May I ask if you could take another look at the Fire Spirit Stone, young master?"

"of course can."

With a flick of his finger, Qin Chuan sent a fire spirit stone flying to Tang Yao.

After carefully reviewing it, a hint of surprise flashed in Tang Yao's eyes.

"These fire spirit stones are indeed of good quality. Let's proceed with the transaction!"

She smiled and said, "Just as we agreed before, one fire spirit stone is worth 1,500 spirit crystals. Our Wanbao Pavilion will take them all!"

"1,500 spirit crystals?"

Qin Chuan slightly raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head, saying, "Sect Master Tang, isn't this a bit too few spirit crystals?"

If it were before, he might have actually agreed.

But after seeing Tang Yao's expression, he understood that this fire spirit stone was extremely important to them.

Moreover, the fire spirit stones he possessed were of high purity, even being top-grade fire spirit stones.

Tang Yao frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Young master, although these fire spirit stones are good, 1,500 spirit crystals is already quite a lot. The price is absolutely fair and honest."

"Honest and fair dealing with people of all ages?"

Qin Chuan smiled enigmatically, raising an eyebrow as he said, "It doesn't seem that way. I've heard that the Du family has recently taken control of a mine, which might affect Wanbaoge's position in Fireflame City."

"you!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yao bit her lower lip, a hint of anger appearing on her beautiful face.

She knew some news about the Du family that was causing quite a stir in the city, and that's probably how the other party found out about it.

Seeing Tang Yao's expression as if her thoughts had been guessed, Qin Chuan smiled slightly and continued, "I guess after you get these fire spirit stones, you will spread the news that your Wanbao Pavilion has also discovered a mineral vein."

In this way, there will be no major problems, at least for the short term.

Then you can bring in help from other places, and all the problems will be easily solved.

The way the Du family controls the mines is somewhat similar to how the Ouyang family tried to monopolize elixirs.

Wanbaoge is naturally not comparable to the Qin family, but if such a thing really happens, it will still be affected to some extent.

Qin Chuan was betting on this very point.

After a moment of silence, Tang Yao gritted her teeth, "If you still have fire spirit stones on you, young master, then we can lower the price further..."

Before Tang Yao could finish speaking, Qin Chuan waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "Sect Leader Tang is joking. I merely obtained this fire spirit stone by chance."

That's all I have; there's nothing more.

Previously, in the mysterious pit, I obtained a little over a thousand fire spirit stones in total.

He still has five hundred pieces left in his Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace.

But he was naturally reluctant to take out such a large quantity of fire spirit stones.

If the other party thinks he has some kind of mineral vein behind him, it will only create more trouble.

"If there are no more."

Tang Yao hesitated, "I'm afraid this..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Chuan said in a deep voice, "Since Pavilion Master Tang cannot make the decision, I can only leave first and continue to look for buyers in the city."

With that, Qin Chuan finished his tea and got up to leave.

"Young master, please wait!"

Seeing Qin Chuan about to leave, Tang Yao quickly chased after him to the door.

Qin Chuan looked at the woman in the red dress who had caught up with him and said calmly, "I have already shown my sincerity. Since Pavilion Master Tang has no intention of accepting it, there is no need for us to continue talking."

"This Flame City is quite large; I imagine the other four major families will definitely be interested!"

Hearing this, Tang Yao hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "In that case, Wanbao Pavilion agrees to the price proposed by the young master!"

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Qin Chuan's lips.

Tang Yao continued, "Then I'll send someone right away..."

"Pavilion Master Tang, please wait a moment."

Qin Chuan suddenly said, "I have some other things as well. I wonder if you would still accept them?"
